SKETCH OF LUTHER
BY CARLYLE,

| a course. rugged, plebeian, face it was,
with great crags of cheek bones-a wild
amount of passionate energy and appetite =
But in his dark eyes were floods OF sorrow
and the deepest melancholy, sweetness, and
| mystery, were all there. Often did there
seem TO meet in Luther the poles in mans
character. He, for example, OF whom Ritch-
er had said that the words were half battles,
| he, when he first began TO preach, suffered
unheard of agony. 20, lr Staupitz, Dr
Staupitz," said he to the vicer-genetal Of his
order, 81 cannot, | cannot; ! shall die III
three moths. Indeed, cannot do it," Dr.
Staupitz n wise and considcrate man, SAID
upon this, "Well, sir Martin, if you must die,
you must but remember, they need good
heads up yonder too Sopreach, man preach,
and then live or die as it happens"
SO Luther preached and lived, and he be.
came, indeed one great whirlwind of energy,
to work without resting in this world; and al
so before he died he wrote many. very many
books, books in which the true man was
for in the midst of all they denounced and cur.
sed, what touches of tenderness lay. Look at
the Table Talk. for example.
We see in little Bird having alighted at
sunset on the bough of pear-tree that grew
in Luthers garden. Lutherlook up at 1t and
said "That little bird, how it covers down
its wings, and will sleep there, so still and
fearless, though over it are the infinite starry
spaces, and the great blue depths OF immensi
ty. Yet it fears mott is at home. The
God that made it too is there" The same
gentle spirit of lyrical admiration is in the,
other passages Of his books. Coming home
from Leipsic, in the autumn season, he breaks
forth into living wonder at the fields of corn
How it stands there" he says, "erect on
its beautiful taper stem, and bending its beau
tiful golden head with bread in 1.-THE bread
OF man sent to him another year." Such
thoughts as these are as little windows
through which we gaze into the serene depths
OF Martin Luther's soul, and see visible across
its tempests and clouds, the whole heaven of
light and love. lie might have painted-hc
might have sung-could have been beautiful
like Raphael, great like mieheal Angelo.

One Of our friends was being shaved at
Antwerp. The barber was female. What
was his surprise, when he saw the good lady
spit into the box, and besmear his face with
the foaming saliva.
An expressive grimace did not escape the
she barber.
"My dear Sir" said she, 81 don't treat YOU
as do my other customers, because / per
ceive very well that you do not belong to
these parts"
"By Jupiter Madam, what do you do in
their case?"
"Why, Sir, spit on their cheek, instead of
splitting in the soap box"

A SCENE AT THE GATE OF PARADIsE.-A
poor tailor being released from troublesome
world and scolding wife, appeared at the
gate of Paradise. Peter asked him ifhe had
ever been in Purgatory.
NO" said the tailor, "but / have been
married"
"Oh!' said Peter, "that is all the same"
The tailor had scarcely got in, before fat
turtle eating alderman came, pulling and
blowing,
"Hallo! you fellow" said he, "open the
gate"
"Not so fast" said Peter, "haye you ever
been in PurgatoryY
"No," said the alderman, shut what is that
to the purpose? You lot in that poor, half
starved tailor, and he has been in Purgatory
no more thanI"
'But he has been married p' said Peter
"Married?" exclaimed the alderman, "why
| have been married twice !"
"Then 60 back, again." said Peter, Para
disc is not the place for fools"

From the Knckerbocker of June
SLEEPING WITH A RATTLESNAKE.

"You have q number of times spoken to
me-" writes friend from whom we receive
the following, ito tell you about the incident
Of my sleeping with rattlesnake, but until
now, ] have not found time to give it to you !;
and even now, am not in the condition or
humor for writing. But you have the facts.
Take them in hand yourself and dress them
up; but don't publish them as they are for
they are not in a condition to see light
Wen Ste about that: at any rate, we take
the responsibility:
at was, think, for have not my memo
randum-book of the day before me, in the
month of August, 1886, that i found myself
wandering through the great inland seas that
begirt our Western country-(if it is not
Western ROlC, it used 10 be, some time or 9TH
er, and that too since the great ran-storm in
Noah's time,) until brought up at Fort
Crawford, Green Bay.
"At this point, Captain E. b. Birdsall, of
the Third United States Infantry, (poor iel-
low, he has fought his last BATTLE and now
slumbers with the dead of a thousand years
ago. procured Macknaw boats, a sufficient
number to accommodate the whole detatch-
ment, which consisted of about one hundred
and fifty United States Dragons, on their
way to Fort Des Moines, on the Mississippi
River--each boat accommodating some
twelve or fifteen soldiers, with the necessary
camp equipage, provisions, etc.
"'rhus provided and fully provisioned for
the journey, the oars were let fall, and we
threaded our way up the Fox River, portion
of the way quite rapid stream, with many
formidable rapids, with grand and lesser chutes
to pass over, until we arrived at Fort Winnie
bago, a post at that time considered beyond
the reach of civilization. A portage OF half a
mile from the Fox to the Ouisconsin River,
and our boats were again launched, and we
pursued our way down the last named river
until we struck the Mississippi, some few
miles below Prarie du CHEN.
II should perhaps, have stated, ere this,
that it was our invariable custom to sleep be-
meath our tents on shore every night.
"Soon after striking the Mississippi, our
tents were pitched one night, as usual 1t

ORNAMENTAL JUDGEs.-Q--was elected
''side Judge" in one of the county courts in
Vermont. lie was not very well versed in
illegal lore" so he called on friend of his
who had served as side judge, to make some
inquiries concerning the duties OF the Office.
To his interrogatories, his answer was "Sir,

suited with regard TO but one question. On
the last day Of the Spring fern, l94-; the

"TIIE PRAYING MILL"
In far Thibet, that land of light,

In far Thbet, that land of light,
The lazy devotee shows his skill
In making a toy to go "all right"
Which travellers call The Praying Mill'
He sets it in running stream,
Calls on Buddha, and goes his way,
And thinks. by Lis pous little scheme,
TO pray by deputy all the day.
But, ere he well is out of sight,
Another devotee passes there,
Who quietly says to himself, "all right"
And turns TO his own account the prayer.
For the sails have but to be reversed,
And, click-a-clack- as the steam runs
down,
They will pray for Fi-Fo Smith, as erst
They prayed for Mr.. Sing-Song Brown.

WOODEN NuTMEGs OUTDoNE.--rhere is
Partisan dandy, who, we think, rather outdoes
Connecticut rH
chad at his residence costume
groom. When offering an attention to one
of the fair sex, he used to say: Permit me
to send you bouquet by my black servant"
He then repaired to his garret, took out his
backing bottle, polished his face and hands,
and knocked at the lady's door
"Here," he said, "are some flowers sent by
my master to Madame"
He had spent the last five frances in the
purchase. Madame was so, delighted with
the present that she presented a louis to the
bearer.
That is clear pocketiug Of three dollars
and lady's favor into the bargain.

FALL; OR, THE FIRST MAR.
RIAGE.

Adam was first created
A happy Bachelor
Nor wished he to be mated,
Nor dreamed of she or her;
Woman had not
Been then inuented,
But all contented
Was Adams lot.
Joyous, and free from sin,
lie passed his early life,
And thus he still had been,
Had he not known wife;
Had he not slept,
lie neer had been
Thus taken in,
But single kept.
He did not want, or need,
A thing so false and frail,
More than tcad, indeed,
Requires, or wants tail.
Daily had he
The cherubim
And seraphim,
For company.
But meddling angels, soon,
To spoil his peaceful life,
Set all their wits to work,
TO pick him out u wife.
AS with as here, ........-.r
orr angels do,
Whene'er they view
a Bachelor.
When Mrs. Adam came,
She hinted, with smile,
That they had better live
A little more in style.
"My dear, we are able,
Better TO dress,
And keep, guess,
a better table"
That day she made feast,
Ofrare and costly fruit;
The next, they both appeared,
Dressed in bran new suit.
And every day
Did female pride,
Decay them wide,
From wisdom's way.
What was the end, dye think,
OF this new course Of life?
Adam was bankrupt made,
BY his ambitious wife.
The tipstatfs come,
And make Il route,
And turn them out
OF house and home.
Adam now forced to work,
70 digging went, and hewing,
While Lady Eve, so proud,
Was glad to take in sewing.
Then, MS Il mother,
The boys she had
Turned out so bad
One killed the other.
If Adam had not been
Thus saddled with a mate,
Would he not, dye think,
Have kept his first estate?
Without mother,
Could wicked Cain,
Think ye, have slain
His pious brother?
This mischief all arose,
Aud more than | have stated,
From Adams first fmtr pas,
Submitting to be mated.
Then let us all
His folly see,
And thus shall VIC
Escape his fall
