THE POWER OF A KISS.

Among the stories of the canyassing IN
Paris for the seat in the French Academy,
made vacant by the death of De Tocqueville,
is the following by The Boston Travellers
correspondent: .s,1.
"A lady, one of the most beautiful women
in Paris, warmly advocated Father Lacord-
aires claims othe vacant seat intending her
eloquence for the ear of an eminent member
Of the Academy, who happened to be in the
room. In conclusion, she directly appealed
TO him to give the friar his vote. He replied
.Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire, the most
beautiful and most intellectual woman of
her day, took most active part in the can
vass for Charles James Fox. In her zeal for
the eminent orator. she even went so tar as
to solicit in person the votes OF the humblest
freemen She was of the greatest service TO
the Wing party, her winning beauty, her
rank, and the splendor her equipage made
her indeed an irresistible advocate. In the
height of the canvass she appealed TO butch
er for his vote He said she might have it
if she would allow him to kiss her. She ac-
cepted his terms He kissed her. Fox got
his vote. The advocate of Friar Lacordaire
understood the apologize, and holding out
her check to the very celebrated but very ug-
ly academician, said, Take your price. >
The bride was instantly taken. Finally,
the Rev. Father secured his triumphant cleo
ton. -

The REASON WHy.-A worthy Scotch cou-
pie, when asked how their son had broken
down so early in life, gave the following ex-
PLANTATION: ''When We began life together
we worked hard and lived upon porridge and
such like gradually adding to our comforts
as our means improved, until we were able
at length to dine off bit of roast meat. and
sometimes BOLT chuekie Tor fowl butsas

The SKY AN INDICATOR OF TUE WEATHER.
The colors of the sky at particular times
afford wonderfully good guidance. Not on
ly does rosy sunset presage fair weather,
but there are times which speak with equal
clearness and accuracy A bright yellow
sky in the evening indicates wind; pale
yellow, wet; a neutral gray color consti-
tutes favorable sign in the evening, an nm
favorable one in the morning. The clouds
again are full of meaning in themselves
Iftheir forms are soft, underlined and feath-
cry, the weather will be fine; if the edges
are hard, sharp, definite, it will be foul
Generally speaking, any deep unusual hues,
betoken wind or rain; while the more quiet
and delicate tints bespeak fair weather.
Simple as these maxims are, the British
Board of Trade have thought fit to publish
them for the use Of seafaring men.
