In an exclusive boarding house, the
boarders-many of whom were new-hfd
assembled in the paflor one evening, when
an awkward silence prevailed, until gen.
tleman, anxious to relieve the cold embar-
rassment rang the bell for the servant who
shortly appeared, and being asked by the
gentleman to bring hatchet! asked, "Sure
sir what will you do with hatchet?"
"Bteak the ice" was the reply. A con-
versation ensued-IhR. Com.
ES- A singular trial is now in progress
in one Of the Providence, Rhode Island,
courts. Some time since a young lawyer
Of Providence, was detected at the Mayl-
boro' Hotel. in Boston, dressed in womsn's
clothes, his female wardrobe--a very val
liable one, valued some hundred of dollars
-was taken from him, and given into the
hands of Providence policeman. who was
TO give it to the lawyers wife. She being
away from the place. it was not done, and
the owner has had the officer arrested for
theft. in keeping the clothes from him. An
amusing list Of this clothing was published
n one of the Providence papers few days
ago. which showed very extensive
female outfit. The case is exciting much N

apart on the opposite sides ofthe river

'It's all the fault of that rusty

they'd chartered nc to build turn

It was hard case.

den and singular idea struck him. He felt
that he had said the most impressive and
eloqdent thing lie had ever said in his life I
He felt that there was power in his tone
and manner which he had never used before
IA power which would affect judge or a
jury, as it had affected Willie. The curse
cursed here too! 1t was that hasty, nerv-
Gus disposition. which gave manner and
tone to his very public speaking-which
made his arguments unconvincing, his
pathos unaffecting. 1t was just that calm,
deep, serene feeling and manner whicl, was
needed at the bar as well as with WILLIE
Arguing with that feeling and manner, he
felt, would convince irresistibly. Pleading
with that quiet, gentle spirit, he felt, would
melt, would affect the hearts as with the
very emotion of tears.
Unless you catch the idea, there is no
describing it, reader. Leland was chris
tian. All that day he thought upon the
whole matter. That night, in the privacy
of his office, he lnelt and repeated the whole
matter before God. For his boys sake. for
his wife. sake, for his own sake, for his
usefulness sake at the bar, he implorcd
steady aid to overcome the deadly, beset-
ting sin. He plead that, indulging in that
disposition, he was alternating from himself
his boy and wife-yra, that he WAS aliena
ting his own better self from himself, for
he was losing his own selfrespect. And
here his voice sank from murmur into
silence-ile remembered that he was thus
alternating from his bosom and his side
God!
And then he remembered that just such
a daily disposition as he lacked was exactly
that disposition which characterized God
when God became man. The excellence
of such n disposition rose serenely before
him, embodied in the person of Jesus Christ.
The young lawyer fell forward on hi. face
and wept in the agony of his desire and his
prayer.
From that sweet spring morning was
Arthur Leland another mana wiser, abler,
more successful man in every sense. Not
al Mt tonce-steadly, undoubtedly advanced
the change. The wife saw, and felt, and
rejoiced in it. Willie felt it and was
restrained by it in every drop of his merry
blood the household felt it, as a ship does
an even wind-and sailed on over smooth
seas constrained BY it. You saw the change
in the mans very gate, and bearing. and
conversation. Judge and Jury felt it. 1t
WAS the ceasing of fever in the frame of
st-emg man-and Leland ws::: about easi!y,
naturally, the strong man he was. Tie
uneasy, embarrassing feeling was forgotten,
and AN ease and grace of tone and manner
succeeded. It was higher development
of the father, the husband, the orator, the
gentleman, the christian. Surely love is
the fountain of patience and peace. Surely
it is the absence Of passion which makes
angels to bc the beings they are. Men can
become very nearly angels or devils, even
before they have left the world.

"Why he is as notorious as the City

anywhere else, if they see him but
once they will know him again. His

Asia and Africa, and in all the Islands
of the seas. He is the "Napolcon of

being given him as nickname, he
gave it to himself by way of distiuc-
ton from the small fry of the press

those trifling little establishments that
had sprung up and around him by
his gracious permission. Mr.. Bennett,

that the labor of every man is nothing less
