debt between the parents. Surely you are
not agoing 10 marry me to that dowdy!"
said the young fellow, then Lord March,
when the knot was about to be tied. -
The knot was tied, however, and imme-
diately the youthful bridegroom was
hurried away from his dowdy bride 10

March, went straight to the theatre, and
saw lady with whose appearance be

reigning toast-that is Lady March," he
was told. 1t was his dowdy wife. The

lived so happily together that years af

- A gentleman was once diring with
a friend, when most dreadful storm
arose. In hopes of its abatement the
entertainment was prolonged to the Ia
test possible hour but at length it was
over, and the storm showed no signs of
ceasing, but on the contrary, grew worse
and worse. The host insisted upon his
guests acceptance of a lodging for the
night, in view Of the impossibility of
his reaching home.
The guest complied, but in few min
utes was missed from the parIor. In
half an hour he re-appeared, drenched
with rain.

Moor of Venice" could be told in fewt
or more suggestive words than it is her
by an Irish acquaintance Of ours:
Othello was a captain bould,
Though black as coal by nature;
To Desdemona he bound
beautiful yeung crayture.
With her he led happy life,
For she was virago
Until day he CHANGED to meet
A villain, named Iago.
Says he, your wifes perjured jade,
She is a fathless lassie oh!
She doesn't straw for you,
Shed give your eyes for Cassie
With him she gallivants about,
In all her hours of laysure;
She stole your pocket handkerchief
For him to wipe his razor
Nv handkerchief. my handkerchief
Othello then dill stammer,
Ny cotton pocket handkerchief!
'Oh d her, lewd mink, d. her.
Neither with dagger, nor with dirk,
For that would make foul stir:
But first III put the candle out,
Add SHAY her with the bouster.

SOCIETY OF ODD FELLOWS AND IT'S
ORIGIN.-The origin of the parent So
ciety of Odd Fellows is of ancient date.
1t was established by the Roman soldiers
in camp, after the order of Israelites,
during the reign of n ero, the Roman En-
peror, who commenced his reign in 55,
1902 years ago, at which time they were
called Fellow Citizens The name of
Odd Fellows was given in the year 70,
by Titus Caesar, Emperor of Rome, from
their singularity of motions, and from
their knowing each other by night as
well as by day; and for their fidelity to
him and to their country, he not only
gave to them the name of Odd Fellows,
but at the same time, as pledge of
friendship, presented them with dis
pensation, engraved on the arch of Ii
tus Caesar, the ark of the covenant, the
sun for n. g.; the moon and stars for V.
g.; camp for Secretary; the Lion for
Guardians the Dove for Warden and
Mortality for G. NJ The first Odd Eel
lows made their appearance in Great
Britain at the time an invasion was
made by one of Titus Caesars generals,
(Agricola,) on North Wales, and shortly
afterward on the Island of Mona, now
called Anglesea. The first account we
find of the order spreading into othor
countries, is in the fifth century, when it
was established in the Spanish domin-
ions, under the Roman dispensation in
the sixth century, by King Henry, in
Portugal; and in the twelfth century, in
France, afterwards in England, by Jno
de Neville, attended by five armed
knights from France, who formed 10y
al Grand Lodge of Honor, in London,
which order remained until the latter
part of the reign of King George III.
when a part of them began to form
themselves into a union. Now it has
humorous branches nearly all over the
word-has lodges in the United States,
Canada, Cape Good Hope, Port Metal,
New leland, Pacific Islands, Australia,
the East and West Indies France and
other places; and is enabled by its pc
culiar constitution, to afford as a benefit
society, greater advantages than can be
obtained in any other association. 1t is
comprised of nearly thirty thousand
members, and possesses in the aggregate
e2,OO0,OOO sterling capital. Some 49,
319 members entered last year; paid last
year for funerals. near 81 900, and for
sick relief, 100000. If to this be added
the payment to widows and orphans, it
will give total of 9,000.-English
