Chas. Lambs Warming.

Chas. Lamb tells his sad experience as
a warning to young men, in the following
language
1.-The waters have gone over me. But
out of the black depths, could l be heard,
| would cry out to all those who have but
set a foot in the perilous flood. Could
the youth to whom the flavor of his first
wine is delicious as the opening scenes of
life, or the entering upon some newly dis
covered paradise, look into my desola-
ton, and be made to understand what a
dreary thing it is when a man shall feel
himself going down a p~recipice with open
eyes and a passive will to see his de-
struction, and have no power to stop it,
and yet feel it all the way emanating
from himself to see all goodness emptied
out OF him, and yet not able to forget
when it was otherwise; to hear about
the plteous spectacle of his own ruin f;
could he see my feyered eye, feverish with
the last nights drinking. and feverishly
looking for to-night's repetition of the
folly f.; couldshe but feel the body of the
death out Of which | cry hourly, with fee
bic cutlery, to be delivered, it were enough
to dash the sparkling beverage to the
earth, in all the pride Of its mantling
temptation"

in danger Of acquiring an appetite for
strong drink, invite his attention to Chas.

altzing with a Dead Woman.

Prince c. was known at London
as at Paris, as the first waltzer in the
world. He waltzed for an hour with no
extra beating Of the heart he wearied
every lady, he exhausted every orchestra.
One evening at Almack's a young Eng
fish lady Of much beauty. wished to waltz
with him and asked him to engage her.
She was the daughter Of a distinguished
n%obleman. who had played all important
part in East India affairs. The prince
waltzed with her 0 the other waltz
ers stopped, the prince and Arabella con-
tinned alone. 1t seemed as if he were in
spired while Waiting he kept on dane
ing without any cessation Of speed and
the orchestra tried in vain to follow him.
The young lady, her head upon his should
er. seemed in ecstacy. People were frigli
tened at her pallor, and the %convulsive
movements Of her eyes, bnt were re assur
ed by hearing her, as if intoxicated with
JOY, murmur, Keep on ! Quicker quick
er still II Soon she spoke no more. The
prince still waltzed, whirling his partner
with his robust arm as though she were
but a gauze scarf.
At last the wearied musicians stopped.
The prince stopped, bowed to his partner.
and moved to leave her. She fell to the
earth, dead.
For a quarter of an hour the prince
had waltzed with a corpse. His grief
was great. Thenceforth all the women
called him 1.-The Vampire"
But women adore what they are afraid
of. There was not in London a single
woman, not one of those charming types
of the Keepsake and the Book Of Beauty,
who would not have been ready to give
him half her blood, provided he wished
it to fill his veins. The Vampire
swore to waltz no more during his life,
but all the young girls conspired togeth-
er to force him to break his word.
Every time since, that he has waltzed
with a young girl, he does so against his
will, with aversion, whirling her around
with a kind of terror. The Vampire
or rather the Prince, is about to marry
Mi. Margaret. This young girl, modest
and Of singular beauty. was three month;
ago, at the ball of the Duchess de S.
The prince, attracted by her appearance
asked her to waltz. She refused, anC
now he is about to marry her.

A Blue Bird in a Bottle.

The West Roxbury (Mass.) Gazette,
gives the following item:
"One of our neighbors happening to
have a large bottle, bethought himself Of
placing it in the branches Ola tree near
his house to build in. After a short time
the members of his family perceived a pair
of blue birds continually, day after dav.
flying about and coming up to the month
Of the bottle, as if endeavoring to get
in. After this had lasted about a week,
the gentleman n day took a hammer up
to the tree to knock off the neck of the
bottle, so that these birds might enter,
when upon so doing a blue bird flew out.
The poor prisoner had undoubtedly sue
ceeded in making his way in, but from
the slippery ascent to the neck, had
been unable to escape, and had probably
been supported by food which had been
brought there by his two outside breth.

Ancient Dexteritv.

One Of the early'Kings Of Egypt being
DESTROYS to secure his riches, commanded
a treasure house to be built but the
architect, intending to have some share
of the treasure, instead of finishing the
building completely, placed one of the
stones in SO artful a manner that it could
be taken out and but in again by one
man. And as he was prevented by death
from accomplishing his design, on his
death-bed he gave instructions to his two
sons, how to execute it. After they had
for some time plundered the treasury,
and carried off large sums, the King, who
observed the gradual diminution of his
wealth without being able to discover
how the thieves had access to it, finding
his seal upon the door always whole,
ordered several strong traps to be left
in the treasury. By this means one ii
them was taken but finding it impossi-
BILE to escape, he pressed his brother to cut
off his head, and retire with it to prevent
discovery.
The next morning, examining the sue
cess Of his project, upon finding a man
without a head in the snare, he fastened
home in the greatest alarm and confu.
sion, but recovering himself, he ordered
the body to be exposed on the outside
of the wall to the public view charging
the guard placed around it to observe
the co~untenances of the spectators, and
to seize those that appeared sorrowful.-
The surviving brother, urged by his moth
er's entreaties and threats Of exposure,
formed the design Of carrying off his
brothers body. Accordingly, driving his
asses thither, laden with skins and wine,
he found means, by the stratagem oflet-
ting his wine run out, to intoxicate and
Supply the guards. While they were in
deep sleep, he shaved the right cheek of
each Of them by way Of derision, and in
the middle of the night carried off the
body on one of the asses.
This action still more astonished the
King who, being now more earnest to
discover the thief, ordered his daughter
to receive addresses of all suitors prom.
~iscuously, on condition that each should
previously confess to her the most ingen
ious action he had ever committed. The
young mar resolving again to perplex
the king. went to the palace to his daugh-
ter, and confessed to her that be had cut
off his brothers head, and afterwards
carried off the body. When she then
offered to lay hold OF him, he stretched
out to her the arm Of a dead man, which
he had carried in under his cloak (sus-
pecting the intentions of the Kino.l and
while she supposed she had detained the
culprit, he made his escape. The Kings,
resentment being now converted into
admiration, he promised a pardon and
reward to the person who had robbed his
treasury, if he would discover himself
The young man upon this proclamation,
Immediately made himself known, and

Retailing Shirts.

A green looking customer observed a
sign hanging over a grocery store. read
ing thus, (" Wholesale and Retail Store"
He worked his way through the crowd

when he broke forth
"Say, Mister. who's boss here ?"
"The proprietor has just stepped out
sir"
We'll, be this a retail store 2"
The young mai hardly comprehending
the greeny's thoughts. simply answered !:
"Yes, sir a wholesale and retail

"Guess you understand your trade ?"

up a bundle for his lady customer,

"Well as the cold weather is coming

replied the clerk, who began to think
that the fellow was in the wrong box.
"Zactly SO ; well I will tell you"

bundle from under his gray %overcoat.

terrupted the clerk, seeing there were a
number Of coustomers waiting to be serv-

en- their Grants by the rich conversation
between the clerk and his droll customer.
Certainly, squire, certainly. I always
do business in a hurry and just as quick
as Old Master will let you retail these
six shirts Let 'em come down to ahont
the knees, kase I don't ware drawers"
The effect may be imagined, but a:
novelists say, can't be described. The
loud bnrsts of laughter which followed
served to convince the poor fellow he
had committed himself and his long
limbs were put in motion at the rate Of
2:40. The last we saw of him he was
standing near a lamp post, inquiring
whether or not there was a shirt retail
store in town.
