ANRCnOrE OF NICHOLAS.

During an interview which Martinez,
/ the Russian comedian and mimic, sue
ceeded in obtaining with Prince Volk-
honsky, High Steward, the late Emper-
ror Nicholas walked into the room unex-
pectedly, yet with design, as was soon
made evident Telling the actor that he
had heard of his talents, and should like
to see specimen of them, he bade him
mimic the old minister. This feat was
performed with so much gusto that the
the Emperor laughed immoderately ; and
then to the great horror of the poor actor,
desired to have himself "taken off, -
/" Tis physically impossible" pleaded
Martinez. Nonsense" said Nicholas,
"I insist on it being done" Finding
himself in the horns of dilemma, the
mimic took heart of grace, and with
promptitude and presence of mind, but
toned his coat over his breast expanded
his chest, threw up his head, and assum-
ing the Imperial port to the best of his
power, strobe across the room and back,
then, stopping opposite the minister, he
cried in the exact tone and manner of the
Gar, "Volkhonsky pay Mr.. Martinez
1000 silver roubles." The Emperor
for a moment was disconcernei, but re-
covering himself with faint smile he or
dered the money 20 be pail

BROILED MACKEREL.

The following good story is told of a
Member of Congress from Ohio:
The venerable Gen. B-was for
several consecutive years returned to
Congress; and as the hotels and board
ing houses in Washington city in those
days, were all on par, or rather below
par, the members were in the habit of
occupying, year after year, the same
rooms. The table of Gen. H.'s board
lng-house (which was kept by a widow
lady and her two daughters) was regu-
larly furnished with stereotyped dinners,
and at one end of the table always sp.
Peared a broiled mackerel. Gen. H..
whose seat was near the fish, had gazed
so frequently upon it, (for it never was
touchedsxcePt by thecOok, that he knew
it all 'by heart Now if the distinguish
ed Representative had any one peculiar
virtue, it was an affectionate desire to
make every person and every creature
around him happy. In the course of
time, Congress adjourned, and Gen. H.
paid his bill to the widow, and got ready
to start for home. The stage stood at
the door; and the old gentleman, show
ing the goodness of his heart, took the
widow by the hand and pressing it, bade
her farewell then kissing the daughters,
said he would like 10 see them in Ohio,
and furnish them with good husbands,
&c.; but even this was not all. The
black boys, who stood along the walls,
were not forgotten, and grinned as he
handed each silver dollar. As he pas
sed around the breakfast table, which
was not yet "cleared off," he saw his
old friend, the mackerel. The tears
came into his eyes, and raising it by the
tail, with his thumb and finger, parted
with it, saying: "well, good bye, good
bye, my old boy you and have served
long campaign together; but (wiping
his eyes) l suppose we shall meet again
next winter. Good bye" The old gen.
tleman rapidly left the house, and Jump
ing into the stage, ratified off, and fortu =
nately for his ears, the widow never saw
him again. YGzkss Blade,

FORWARD ALL.

In this westward tide of humanity
that ever ebbs-this breathless crowding
of the American people towards the set
ting sun---there seems to be kind of
mania, an active cause of which we are
entirely unconscious. Why is it that
year after year we hear again and again
the cry of " to the West, to the West !"
No one can tell the why, no man really
knows. We only know that such is the
nature of this people, that there is a
something in the very word West that
leads thousands to leave their Eastern
homes and "go West"
1t is as though this Universal Yankee
Nation were engaged in one grand cotil-
lon, and the only call in that national
dance was " Forward All !" All along
the New England coast, the cry goes up
morning and night, the live long year,
Of, Forward All! New York answers it
and every State in the Union falls into
the line, and away go the old and young,
the rich and the poor-all bound for the
beautiful and limitless country termed
"away out west"
And so to-day reader, we find our
selves on the Western bank of the great
Missouri-here where eighteen months
ago no while man lived-where the Otoe
and the Omaha held sole possession
where the rich lands of the Nebraska,
cultivated only by the hand of nature,
brought forth its yearly yield of flowers,
that wasted their sweet perfume upon
the desert air, and nothing more.
We are here, but there is no change.
The Otce and the Omaha are going,
going West, the rustic of their step has
not yet died away, the clatter of their
arrow-quivers, and the war song of the
young men yet fingers in the air of the
settler.
The foremost wave, the head sea in
westward tide has struck the western
shore of the Missouri river, and now,
though thirty-fve miles back of us, no
white man lives. The cry is raised
here, forward all, the ring of the ham,
mer and the axe, the clink of the anvil,
the roll of the Printing Press, and the
painting of the steam-mills, give token
that the call is obeyed.
Forward all and away over the prai
ries the rumble of the emigant's wag-
on and the lowing of his cattle answer.

Toole-well, well, the darkness of man.
kind is ontellible. Well, sir, you must
know, as you didn't hear afore, that
there was wanst king called King o.
Toole, who was fine ould king in the
ould ancient times, long ago; and it
was him that owned the churches in the
airly days"
"surely," said 1, "the churches were
not in King O'Toole's time?"
"0h, by no means, yer honor-troth,
its yourself that's right enough there
but you knew the place is called The
Churches bekese they wor built afther
by St. Kavin, and, and wint by the name
o. the Churches liver more; and therefore
av coorse, the place bein' so called, 1
say the king owned the churches-and
why not sir, seein' twas his birthright,
time out o. mind, beyant the food? Well,
the king, you see, was the right sort
he was the rale boy, and lovedeport as
he loved life, and huntin' particular and
from the rising O. the sun, up he got,
and away he wint over the mountains
beyant afther the deer, and the fine
times them wor for the deer was as
plinty thin, aye troth, far plintyer than
the sheep is now; and that's the way it
was with the king, from the crow of the
cock to the song @ the redbreast.
In this country, sir" added he,
speaking parenthetically in an under
tone, "we think it unlucky to kill the
redbreast, for the robin is Gods own
bird"
Then, elevating his voice to its former
pitch, he proceeded:
"WeD, it was all mighty good as long
as the king had his health /; but, you see,
in coorse O. time, the king grew ovid,
by raison he was stiff in his limbs, and
when he got sthricken in years, his heart
failed him, and he was lost entirely for
want of divarshin, bekase he couldn't 90
huntin' no longer, and by dad, the
poor king was obleeged at last for to get
a goose to dwarf him."
Here an involuntary smile was pro
duced, by this regal mode of recreation,
"the royal game of goose"
Oh, you may laugh, If you like, -
said he, half affronted, L" but it's thruth
I'm tellin' you and the way the goose
diyarted him was this-a-way: you see,
the goose used for to swim acrass the
lake and go down divin' for throut,
(and not finer throut in al Ireland than
the same throut, and cotch fish on a
Friday for the king, and flew every 9TH
er day round about the lake. divartin'
the poor king, that you'd think he'd
break his sides laughin' at the frolicsome
tricks av his goose; so in coOrse o. time
the goose was the greatest pet in the
country, and the biggest rogue, and
divarted the king 10 10 end, and the
poor king was as happy rs the day was
long. So that's the way it was ; and all

1t is the glorious Summer tine,
The winds are soft and low,
And DER the hills, sunlight and shade
Alternate come and go;
The voice Of summer sweet is heard,
among the leaves and corn,
For winds are full OF whisperings
At eve and early morn.
Yes, glorious Summer now is here,
With all her heightened train,
She sxsys her golden sceptre o'er
The fields of rip'ning grain;
The flowers along the rivers side
Are bending down, as though
They wished to clasp their shadows in
The crystal depths below.
A gladstone voice is stealing from
The distant bourne and brake,
The clouds, that float upon the air,
Are mirror'd in the lake;
And softly trips the purHng brook,
On silver feet along,
While from the bushes on its bank,
The birds pour forth their song.
The world seems very fair and bright,
The sunlight sweeps our brow,
But it viii be as beautiful
A few short years from now:
With Iightsome step July will come,
With cool, refreshing shOE'rs,
With laughing brook-with singing birds,
With sunshine and with fiow'rs.
The streams will glide as gently on,
With music sweet and low,
Upon whose banks at eventide
We roamed so long ago.
The same bright sun will still persue
His trackless course on high,
And stars as bright and beautiful
viii still CLEAN in the sky;
Although the earth will be as fair,
The birds sing on each bough,
They win not sing their song for US
A few short years from nowl
For eY'ry living thing on earth,
Must shortly droop and die,
And we shall soon have passed away
Like cioud-tints from the sky.

PROVERBIAL PHILOSOPHY.

By THE SOLOMON ORDINARY TO THE BRITISH NATION.
1. An umbrella upon thine arm may
make it ache, but should rain come, the
umbrella will preserve thy clothes.--
Choose betwixt trifing pain and tall
or's bill.
II. Other persons were born about
the same time as thyself, and have been
growing up ever since, as well as thou.
Therefore be not proud.
III. Preserve few secrets from thy
wife for if she discover them, she will
grieye, not that thou hast kept from her
thy secrets, but thy confidence.
". Yet confidence may be mispla-
ced, as when thou goest out in thin pat
ent leathern boots, simply because the
pavement before thine own door has
dried.
V. The girl who is destined to be thy
wife, although now unknown to thee, is
sure to be living somewhere or other
Hope, therefore, that she is quite well,
and otherwise think politely about her.
VI. Educate thy children, lest one of
these fine days they educate thee in a
school with no vacations.
VII. o how good was Nature, that
placed great rivers near great towns
VIII. A traveller, jOurneying wise
ly, may learn much. Yet much may
also be learned by him who stays at
home.
X. Aninsane person may lie to thee,
and yet be innocent, and thou mayest
lie to him, and be praiseworthy. Now
all persons are somewhat insane, but do
thou beware of lying, as a general rule.
Y. Heat expands things, and there
fore in hot weather the days are length
ened. Moral heats sometimes expand
thy mind, but they tend not to the
lengthening of thy days.
XI. 1 do not say to thee, " Marry,
for it will exalt thee," yet was there sub
tie meaning in those whose usage it was
to say, MARRY, c9me up"
XII. Cool things are used to cure
fever, vet the oyeT-coolness of a friends
act will throw thee into heat.
XIII. We know nothing, and yet it
is knowing something to know that thou
knowest nothing.
