q The Game Of Euc'tre and Life-Am
There is genuine humor in the idea
that an Arkansas man finds the most
natural expression, oven of parting ad-
vice to his son, in the language of tho
card-table, and the manner in which the
terms of the game of 'cuchro' are ther
fitted TO the game of life are ingenious.
Read it; there's moral in it :
Bob, you're about leaving homo for
strange parts. You're going to throw
me out of the game, and go it alone.
The odds is against, Bob, but remcm-
bor always that industry and prcsevor-
ance arc tho winning cards; they arc
the bowers Book larning and all that
sort Of thing will do to fill up with, like
small turnips, but you must have tho
bowers to back 'cm, else they amt
worth shucls. If luck runs again you
pretty strong, don't cave in and look
like sick chicken on u rainy day, but
hold your head up and male 'om believe
you're flush of trumps; they won't
play so hard again you.
~'I've lived and Travelled around Some,
Bob, and Pve found out that us soon as
folks thought you held sut weak
hand, they'd buck again you strong.
SO, when you re sOrtcr weak, keep on d
bold front, but play cautious, be suits
fed with Il pint. Many's the hand I'vo
seen euchred cause they played for too
much. Keep your eyes well skinned,
Bob ; don'tlet 'em mig on you: rccoI-
lect tho game lays as much with tho

Ho1o Flies Helped on the Cause Of
american Liberty-In the last volume
of Randall's Life Of Jefferson, the fol-
lowing anecdote is given as related by
Mr.. jefferson
Whilst the question of independence
was before Congress, it had its meet
ings near u livery stable. It's members
wore short breechos and silk stockings,
andwith handkerchief in hand theywere
diligently employed in lashing the flies
from their legs. Sovery voxatious was
this annoyance, and to so great an
impatience did it rouse the sufferers,
that it fastened, if it did not aid, III
inducing them promptly to aflix their
signatures to the great document which
gave birth to an empire republic.
The anecdotc | had from Mr.J efferson
at Monticello, who seemed to enjoy it
very much, as well as to give credit to
the influence Of the flies. He told it to
me with much glee, and seemed to re-
tain a vivid recollection of the severity
Of an attack, from which the only re-
lief was signing the paper and flying
from the sccne-
DCHtD u IL IIcFO-JOnn ID. NOugh,
in one Of his temperance speeches, told
the following story:
John Maynard was pilot on n stca-
MGR from Detroit to Buffalo. One sum
mer afternoon smoke was seen ascend
ing from below, and the captain called
out, Simpson, go down and sec what
that smoke is.' Simpson came up with
his face pale as ashes. Captain, the
ship is on fire. Then, Fire! fire! fire!
fire on shipboord = All hands were
called up. Buckets of water were
dashed upon the fire, but in vain. Pas
sengers and crew, men, women and
children, crowded the forward part Of
the ship. John Maynard stood at the
helm. The fumes burst forth in u
sheet of fire; clouds Of smoke arose;
the captain cried out through his truIn-
pct, John Maynard = Aye, aye, sir.'
How does sho hpudH 'SOuth-cast-by-

"EICH DYN. 1.-The origin of this: motto,
prominently borne upon tho arms of the
Prince Of Wales: is thus accounted for
After King Edward the 7. of England, had
conquered the prlncipaity of Wales. to recon
cile his new subjects as completely as posi-
BILE to Their fate, and at the same time not dis
regard their clamors for native prince, the
Monkish Chronicles relate that the king and
his wife confined at C9rn1rvon Castle, the
palace OF the sovereign of Wales and. as
soon as circumstances permitted, he assem-
bled their leaders, who were most clamorous
for native prince, and taking his new born
son in his hands, presented him to them
observing in broken Welsh, Elch Dyn, &" this
is your man." This infant afterwards
Edward of C@rnarvon and then Edward II.
of England, was the first English Prince OF
Wales--the first proprietor of the title which
has since been worn in succession by every
male heir to the British Crown.
