.B- Ye Froggc is one amphibyous animal
with foure feete, a nayked boddie, and wyth-
out ever tayle. He hath hoarse voice, and
loveth much to use it on ye summer nights.
He is remarkable for graceful swimming with
rapidness, and for taking very large eappes
on ye lande.
~ Gods people are like stars, that shine
brightest in the night; they are like gold, that
is brighter for the furnace; like incense that
becomes fragrant from burning like the cam
omile plant, that grows the fastest when tram
pied on.
s85- In the commission of evil, fear no man
SO much as thine own SELF Another is but
one witness against thee-thou art thousand
Another thou mayest avoid, but thyself thou
canst not; wickedness is its own punishment.
~ The proof of true love is respect-not
freedom. So says some one. A somewhat
cold definition, and belongs, undoubtedly, to a
bilious temperament
.Y- 1t is very common thing to abuse
lawyers Brietless lawyers, however, should
always be excepted. 1t is wrong to speak i'll
of man without cause"
Icy pious darky asked an immoral one
why he didn't lay up his treasures in hea-
ven?' "What de use OBJ dat-I nebber see
'em agin," said Sambo.
e4y- There is a limit to enjoyment, though
the sources of wealth be boundless and the
choicest pleasures of life within the ring of
moderation.
r#- He who lives only to benefit himself,
gives the world benefit when he dies.
.5y- Many complain of neglect, who never
tried to obtain regard.

A HARD.sHELL:-A traveller called at night
fall at a farmers house-the owner being from
home, and the mother and daughter being
alone, they refused to lodge the wayfarer.
" How far, then" said he, to a house where
a preacher can get lodgings ?" "Oh, if you
are a preacher" said the lady, "you can stay
here" Accordingly, he dsmounted. He de-
posted his saddlebags on the porch, and led
his horse to the stable. Meanwhile the moth
er and daughter were debating the point as to
what kind of preacher he was. He cannot
be Presbyterian" said the one, for he is
not well dressed enough" " He is not Me-
thodist" said the other, I" for his coat is not the
right cut for Methodist" "If could find
his hymn book" said the daughter, 81 could
tell what kind Of preacher he is" And with
that she thrust her hand into the saddlebags,
and, pulling out flask of liquor, she ex-
claimed, "La mother, he's Hard-shell Bap-

The CAMELs-These useful animals, under
charge Of Lieut. Beale, left San Antonio, carry
ing the larger portion of the grain for the ten
teams of mules in the expedition; the regular
pack camel carrying load of one thousand
pounds, making an average of four miles an
hour, without suffering the least inconveni-
ence. The old idea that these animals cannot
swim, was refuted in the passage of the Rio
Colorado, near the Mohave village, which the
expedition crossed the latter part of October.
The experiment was made by Lieut.. Beale
leading one of the large pack animals into the
river, who, as soon as he was driven in be-
yond his depth, took to the water " like a
duck" and the rest crossed in patches of five
and six. The success of the experiment of the
introduction of camels on the plains, has been
fully demonstrated, and they prove invaluable.
