This All Goes for Nothing.

1t is related of that singular but gifted
man, John Randolph, that being, as was
supposed, upon his death bed, several
persons who had been his enemies called
upon him to offer acts of kindness. A.
mong others of these was the late
John C. Calhoun, who desired a reconcil-
iation with Randolph before his death, es.
pecially for its political benefits. Ran.
dolph received him kindly, accepted his
proffers Of sympathy, and freely forgave
him for his previous opposition, and ac-
cepted an amiable settlement of all diff.
cul,ies.
Calhoun was delighted with this mani.
festation of kindness, but what was his
surprise when on taking leave of the ex.
hausted and as it was supposed, dying
Randolph, the latter called him back tc
his bedside with this exclamation: Now
Calhoun, remember, If I get we'll, all thi.
goes for nothing" He did get we'll, anl
took an active part in politics, but never
spoke to Calhoun again during tht
balance of his days. 1t did all 60 fo'
nothing.

strikes upon the bord the Queen of hearts!
In much less time than it has taken US to
relate it, Jones had taken home that ex-
citable lift, and the lone hand was doomed
forever, The cheerful and blowing his
nose Robinson, indulging in unseemingly
hilarity, says; Give 'em point and the
game goes on.
The game goes on; we cannot follow it
we can only jot down its vernacular.-
There is q bridge, Smith-you are on
suspension bridge, and 1 suppose you
know what you're sitting there for. Order
it if it takes your breath away-that's the
game just as sure as you order it
you're euchred,' says Jones, blulingly.-
Brown thinks he knows the color Of the
counters, and Robinson says this is his
stronghold. I'm playing the game all the
time now If them fellers amt stuck
for the ardent sperrlts, then I'm no judge
of liquor Soft match-any other game
you play?' Go slow, go slow, we'll just
get through You're elected to bring
the groceries, No show for your money
this time.' we amt playing that game
so much as we was.' You know what
kind of man Jew hates 'Euchred on
a loner! Captain just put into the bushes
and throw this man off,
Such, my young friends, is the language
of that game called Euchre. A language
not very classical, not very dead.-Bosto,'

GALILEO.

In 1852, Galileo, then youth of
eighteen, was seated in church, when
the lamps suspended from the roof were
replenished by the sacristan, who in dos
ing so, caused them to oscillate from side
to side as they had done hundreds of
times before when similarly disturbed. -
He watched the lamp, and thought he
perceived that while the oscillations were
diminishing. they still occupied the same
time. The idea thus suggested never de-
parted from his mind, and fifty years af-
terwards he constructed the first pendu-
lum, and thus gave to the world one OF
the most important instruments for the
measure of time. Afterwards, when liv.
ing at Venice, it was reported to him one
day that the children of a spectacle max.
er while playing with two glasses, had
observed, as they expressed it, that things
were brought nearer by looking through
them in a certain position. Everybody
said how curious, but Galileo seized the
idea and invented the first telescope.

"CoDsols Have Esu en-"

Well, what Of it? What are Consols
and why did they fall! Consols is abbre-
Walton of the phrase "Consolidated An
nuities," Fund made up of Government
Indebtedness to individuals. England is
hundreds Of millions of dollars in debt,
but she owes this debt to her own subjects
for monies loaned to carry on her wars
These debts bear q low rate Of interest,
from 2 to per cent, showing great con.
6dence in the stability of the Government
But when . general European war is
threatened as now, and it is not known
how long monarchy is to last, this conf
deppe subsidies and so does Consols. The
greatest fall since the wars of Bonsparte
took place last week, being about .tfvs
per cent. These Funds are also affected
by rates Of money like other funds, but
they have this intimate connection with
Government which political considerations
much more affect. t.~Plain Dealer.

Fortune IN q Gust Of Wind.

The good luck of shepherd boy isjust
now "the shrug" Of Paris. Count S.
and his charming wife were passengers in
one of the rail.trains of Germany, and at a
few leagues from Heidelberg the Counts
hat was blown of as he CHANGED to put
his head out of the window As it was
a valuable Panama, the owner made
q record of his less at the next station,
aud gave his address in the city, where it
could be brought to him iffound.
Some days passed, and the Count and
his lady were walking in the gay prom
enade where the roulette table forms the
principal feature. when railway conduc-
to: approached with the missing hat. 1t
had been carried a great distance by the
wind, but was brought in at last 10y a
shepherd boy-a little fellow Of thirteen
years of age-who had found it among
the hills where he followed his flock.
"Could you find that poor lad again. "
asked the Count, "and give him this little
recompense?" But as he put two gold
pieces in the conductors hand, the Count
ess made a suggestion.
Suppose, instead of sending it to him.
you first try its luck on the table? You
know the proverb-"To the little limo.
cents, full hands," What he wins, we
will send to him, and If he loses, why
we'll make it up"
The Count assented, and the two louis
d'ors were placed upon one of the numbers
of the table. Around went the wheel
and the little shepherds fortune was made
Ten thousand francs had come up to hi
number! ......, .... --..s .
The messenger was waiting. aud the
scindfaH was at once forwarded to tn
happy boy!

wishing to show to the jury how strongly
the rival case was fortified, made use Of .

home to their feelings. "Not only" said
he, shave my clients rights been thus in

A green, awkward girl the daughter of
wealthy parents in Arkansas, having come
TO-, in Massachusetts, to be edu.
Gated. young dentist named Brown, con-
ceived notion that his shortest road to
fortune would be to marry her. But
then she was the laughing stock of the
whole Seminary, because so gaunt, mas
culine and ungenteel in her dress, and
Brown felt that it would require all his
nerve to stand the ridicule of several
young lady pupils. with whom he had
firted until he was satisfied they had no
money or expectations Of any. How
ever, he consoled himself with the reAec-
tion that doubtless he should speedily
obtain influence over the girl to enable
him to become, in measure, her adviser
in the matter Of costume, manner, ect
The foremost thought was to amend her
long. lank form by the aid of crinoline,
which she had never worn, and his fiat
terry had no sooner secured him O con-
fidential place in her good graces, before
he ventured to make her a present of
patent skirt or sack, together with hint
to fix up pretty handsomely for ball,
to which he had invited her. The night
arrived, the party were assembled, and
the Arkansas damsel made her grand ell
tree from the ladies room amid litter of
laughter from the schoolgirls and the
village bellies. The hoop-sack was shock
ingly out of shape, projecting in front
like the Spouting horn at Nahant; but
that was rothing to the expose it made of
her somewhat incong.uous black hose, the
destinations of which were materially
augmented by the yellow rosettes on her
white satin slippers (men's size) encasing
her delicate feet.
To complete Browns horror, her faxen
head and freckled face were .'set off,
with profusion of green and yellow bow.
