ANEcDoTE OF ROBERT BURNs.-Burns
was standing one day upon the quay at
Greenock, when wealthy merchant, be-
longing to the town, had the misfortune
to fall into the barbour. He was mo-
swimmer; and his death would have been
inevitable had not sailor, who happened
to be passing at the time, Immediately
plunged in, and at the risk of his own
life, rescued him from his perilous situa-
tion.
The Greenock merchant, upon recover
ing little from his fright, put his hand
into his pocket and generously presented
the sailor with a shilling. The crowd,
who were by this time collected. loudly
protested against the contemplate insig-
nlhcance of the sum; but Burns, with a
smile of inegable scorn, entreated them
to orestrain their Glamour, "For," said he,
the gentleman is of course the best jud se
of the value of his own life.''

ARTEsAN WELLS ON THE PRAIR1Es.-A
gentleman, whose statement may be re-
lied upon, writing from Iroquois county,
Illinois, in reference to Artesian wells in
that county, says:
"Tlree Artesian wells have succeeded
admirably in this county. The water ri
ses over the top, and runs off in a fine
stream. The opinion is quite prevalent
here now that good wells of this kind may
be secured any where in our prairies, al
an expense of 81, so per foot, and at this
level they will not have to sink them more
than 1875 feet.''

The Loss of q wife

No man but one who has been called
upon to mourn the loss of dear and be-
loved companion can fully appreciate the
beauty and trutnfulness of the following
article, which we copy from an exchange.
In comparison with the loss of wife.
all other bereavements are trifing. The
wife! she who fills SO large space in the
domestic heaven; she who busted herself
SO unweariedly for the precious ones
round her; bitter is the tear that falls up
on her cold clayi You stand beside her
coffin and think of the past. It seems
an amber colored pathway, where the sun
shone upon beautiful flowers, and the
stars hung glittering overhead. Fain
would the soul linger here-no thorns are
remembered save those your hands may
unwillingly have planted. Her noble
tender heart lies open on your inmos
sight. You think of her now as all gen
tleness, all beauty, all purity. But shs
is dead! The dear head that has lain up
on pillow of clay. The hands tha
have ministered SO untiringly are folded
white and cold, beneath the gloomy port
ais. The heart whose every beat meas
ured an eternity of love lies under you
feet. The flowers she bent over i
smiles, bend now above her tears, shak
ing the dew from their petals that th
verdure around her may be kept gree
and beautiful.

HE WAY TO MAKE LARGE PIEs.-Au
Old lady in the country had dandy
from the city to dine with her on a cer-
tain occasion. For the desert there was
an enormous apple pie.
"La, ma'am!'' said the gentleman,
chow do you manage to handle such
pie?''
EASY enough was the quiet reply;
eve make the crust up in wheelborrow
wheel it nnder an apple tree, and then
shake the fruit down into it."

The last dodge to sell ready made
clothing has been introduced by some of
the Baltimore dealers. They place in
the coat pockets an old portmonnale stuff

inquiring for vestment. The dealer, If
he Judges his customer to be of the right
stripe, after essaying several coats. at last
saws: eHere is coat made for gen
tleman-he wore il one day and sent 1t
back-it was too small for him; try it on.
All! it fits first rate-like it was made for
YOU. 1t is we'll made--buttons sewed on
strone-pockets" The customer puts
his hands in his pockets to try them,wh
his fingers come in contact with the pock
ct book. His imagination is kindlec
with the idea of appropriating the sup
posed treasure "How much did you sa,
the coat wasp he eagerly asks. Th'
dealer names good round price. 81
suits me-Ill take it," is the quick reply
The money is paid-the self-duped Gus

GU At private residence, in Phila

melancholy affair occurred on Sunday
night. The family, it seems, consists of
a mother and several children, of which
two are young men grown. the latter
had been OF inliog The afternoons, and
had indulseI.n drink. They quarreled
while attle sapper liable, when youn
Ger brother interfered, but without avail
to bring about reconciliation. The moth.

it is said received some harsh replies from

MusKEToEs IN FLoRIDA.--The Key
West correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury, in his letter of the 10th ult.,
speaking Of musketoes, which, since the
late heavy rains, have become very
troublesome on the Key. says:
In the everglades these pests of So nth
ern life are frightfully abundant. At
Fort Dallas they are so plentiful that both
officers and men rave; the guard on duty
pass their whole time under bars. The
sentry is provided with a musketoe veil,
or rather, bag, thrown over the head land
kept out of the face by hoop; wooler
cloths, boots and guantleted gloves pro
tect the limbs and body from their mur
derous attack. Persons who nave not ex
perienced this beauty of Southern Iift
will scarcely believe that horses and cat
tie are actually bled to death in singh
night, and wee be To- that soldier or sea
man who, by means of liquor, loose
command of himself and falls to The
ground, helpless and protected these in
satiable vampires will fasten their fang.
upon him, and from his bessoted bod,
draw what fevered blood remains.

seen in this side Of the head OF Lake
Michigan. So lightning can be seen a
Ileast two hundred miles,
