A TRIBUTE "To JOHN WALKER" OF
THE CLARION"

Mr.. EDITOR: A terrible time, indade,
did that howl sow'ld "John" have with
his "own boat" in fi'ching them are people
over the raging waters, tn ither night
It's too bad, be jabers! it is indade, Mr..
NEWS; poor lackey of an Irishman
sho'ld put his dear life in his boat, to in
sure the lives of the passengers from the
cars, and that all for nothing, too; l till
ye it's too bad-and when stane ferry
boat is breaking the ice fut thick at the
same time, an free ferry running iv'ry
blessed day, when there's channel made
for them through tn ice; an it's meself
that's often tellin' the houl truth, all about
the dear sowrs suf1erin's an sarvices, an
dangerous situations; cause, ye see it's
himself an his Bowt," il is, that should
be afther Clarion immortality; an it's
me, too, that's after saying that the dear
darlin' of Bowt" sho'ld at onct be put
up in the Club Museum for inspection of
all arter carnations. But must till the
stowry of this bowld hero "John"
Ye see, the warm sun begun to thaw
the thick ice, an the folks were crossin'
ivry mint, with safety, sure, yet the stamc
ferry "Bowt" was afther breaking chan
mel TO make sure of good crossin' next
morning-if there shold be fraze; l till
ye it was wonderful 10 see the good peo-
pie standin' on the ice with big shelalahs
helpin' the bowt thro' the ice fut thick;
there was big crowd / can till We, an if
yes afther askin' who was there, till We
I'd rither tell who was not. / didn't see
"Cap'n Metz" an faith he'd bin there
with his axes" if he was home, at all at
all. They broke the old "Bowt" about
as much as they did ice, but they mcnded
it up at onct. Jist as they got over an
nice channel made, the ice below the Low
or Diggin's all went into the lake and left
the wather as clear as spring that never
frazes, "John" launched his "Bowt," brave
fellow, into the thrit'ning iliment an gaz-
ing upon his own form distinctly seen in
the mirored wather, made so by the
"Paddy's hurricane" he could not but
think single plank only was under his
feet, and he trimbled in every jint; but his
strong hand and brawny arm brought him
safely tother side OF Jordan. What
maracle is man! Now, Mr.. News, if any
sowl don't believe this, and says l till
lie, lit him come over the ither side an
call for me, the Dist man at the depot
groun's, an be jabers he will find the
match for him in Ovid IRELAND.

MAN.

Bay, why was man SO eminently raised
Amid the vast creation why ordained
Through life and death to dart his piercing eye,
With thoughts beyond the limits Of his frame
But that the omn;potent might send him forth
In sight Of mortal and immortal powers,
As on boundless theatre, to run
The great career Of justice to exalt
His generous aim 10 all diviner deeds;
To chase each partial purpose from his brensi;
And through the mist Of passion and of sense,
And through the tossing tide Of chance and pain,
To hold his course unfalteringj while the voice
OF truth and virtue, up the steep ascent
or nature, calls him to his high reward
The applauding smile Of Heaven

ILLUSTRATION OF Aw.-The follow
ing story is an Illustration of the say
ing that possession is nine points of
law. +" A. is rather a sharp lawyer,
and resides next door to B, The
houses A. and B. occupy are similar
IN appearance, land as they adjoin, are
easfty mistaken by a comparative
stranger. B. being out of coal walks
to coal yard, purchases load for
So. 80, and sends it home. The man
OF whom he purchased, mistakes the
residence of A. for that of B. and
dumps the coal in AS yard. The
lawyers man sees the coal in the yard
and gets wheelbarrow and shovel and
puts IT into the cellar. B. is in a
fpeck of trouble that his coal does
not come, and goes out to find the.
man from whom he had bought it.
See here, my good friend, I bought
load OF coal of you, and you have
not delivered it. /" says he, as soon as
he found the collier.
"You bought the load and paid for
it, and I delivered it,n said the coal
dealer.
Here the thought struck B. that he
saw coal in his neighbor's the lawyer's)
yard, and Immediately OWNED the mys
terry. He starts for the lawyers office,
and finding him, thus accosted him:
Mr. A., suppose you should buy
load Of coal, and the man should put
it in the wrong yard what would you
require of the gentleman that appro-
priated the coal?
Well, sir, u said the lawyer, "I
should either make him return the
coal, or pay the amount 1 paid for
the load.
Very well, !" said Mr.. B just
give me $3.50.
The lawyer gently drew thirty cents
from his pocket, and handed it to B.
What does this mean, Mr.. A.?
You owe me So more. +" said the as
toIished B.
"Not at all, u said the LAWYERS IT

RECIPE FOR ELDERBERRY VINE
A House, keeper writes to the Coun-
try Gentleman AS the season for
making EEderberry Wine is approach
ing, I would give through your columns,
an excellent recipe for making it The
berries, when ripe, are first picked by
the stems, then stripped with the
hand, or trimmed close with shears.
Next they are mashed fine, which can
be done by means of q stick in the
form Of pestle. Let them remain I'M
til the next day, when the juice is
pressed out slowly in cheese press, or
any other convenient way. Next boil
the juice twenty minutes: skim it, and
add four pounds Of white sugar to a
gallon. When milk warm, add a
small piece Of white bread crust that
has been dipped in yeast. Let it stand
three days, remove the crust, and the
vine is ready for bottlipg, Age i'm
proves it,
TOMATO HONEY. Cut sound ripe
tomatoes in slices, and express the
juice through cloth. To each pint
Of the liquid, add one pint Of sugar,
and boil the whole until Of the con
sistency Of honey, removing the scum
as it rises It may be favored with
lemon Or other extract to spit the
taste.
