and half amused at the turn affairs had taken,

not detain you, having no need Of your orthodox
presence; but il you do seek him, you will have

Of the money which gave him, and took the

The Quaker fairly bounced from his chair,
and making for the door, cleared for the middle

We were travelling not long since in Illinois,
and called at a house near the road TO solicit q
drink Of water, when the following conversation
occurred: "Well, my hoy, how long have ou

reply, " always make it a point to carry some
money with me, m0rc or less" "Weil," re
joined the stranger, IL wish to go across the
river the fare is ten cents. Would YOU please to
accommodate me with that sum-" The gentle
man, putting on look of well affected surprise,
exclaimed, "Sjr, do you mean TO say that you
havrt ten centsG" "Ycs sir, havnta cent,
rejoincd the stranger. "Well," responded the
gentleman, q if you havn't cent, it'll make ID
iittle difference on which side Of the river You

Elections.

In every day life "You charge a dollar for

A College Joke,

One Of the earliest Presidents of the jefferson
College, Penn, was the venerable DIR. Mcmillan,
a man Of great gravity and dignity Of manners.
In those carly times it was customary for the
students, when meeting the President, 10 re-
move the hat place it under the left arm, make
a profound bow, and pass the compliments Of
the day.
Among the students was Tom Devon, an &C.
centric fellow. His father was rich, and as Tom
was always flush Of money!" the height Of his
ambition was a gold-headed cane, and to gallant
the old Greek professor daughters.
The term student, which he bore in common
with the other members Of the college, was a
sad misnomer Toms mind was more deeply
engrossed with back Cannon, checkers, and old
sedge, than with his mathematics, and he was
more deeply read in the lore Of Chesterfield,
than that Of Homer and Virgil In fact he was
n shallow Drained, lily-handed for, and, as may be
su posed, great iayorite with a certain class of
ladies' who mistake impertinence for wit, and fine
clothes and affected manners for refinement and
solid accomplishments.
But to our tale. Tom was one day walking
down street arm.in-arm with his friend, John
Smith, who bad spice Of the wag about him.
Seeing the President few PAGES before them,
Tom hastily inquired,
"Smilh, what is good morning, sir in
Latin 2 on. /.
Ego sum auitus," was the reply, without a
moments hesitation.
Meeting the President Tom, after the most
approved style Of donkeysm, at the same time
making profound salaam, greeted him with;
" Ego sum du'tGs"
al am aware Of it" responded the President,
making slight bow.
This proving rather unsatisfactory, Tom posted
off to the room of his friend Byles, whom he
salnted with;
"Deacon, what is the translation Of this sen.
tence-" Ego SUN stutus y
lam a JooiF responded the unsophisticated
"deacon."
This told the whole story. As novel writers
say, Toms feelings may be more easily imagined
than described. s... ...s t.I
Whether the students bored him about it ol
not, and whether the professors daughters. eyei
heard Of it or not, depOnent saith not; but his
tory recordeth that the next Aat-bottomed boat
that went down the Ohio bore Tom as passcn-
ger.

The Printer and his Types.

Perhaps there is no department Of enterprise
whose details are less understood by intelligent
people than the " art preservative" achieve
ment Of types
Every day, their life long, they are accus-
toned to read the newspaper, to find fault with
its statements, its arrangements, its looks, to
plume themselves npon the discovery Of some
roguish and acrobatic type that gets into frolc
and stands upon its head; or some word with
waste letter or two in it; but Of the process by
which the newspaper is made, of the myrads Of
motions and thousands Of pieces necessary to its
composition, they know little and think less.
They imagine they discourse Of wonder, in
deed, when they speak of the fair white carpet
woven for thought to walk on, Of the rags that
fiuttered on the beggar yesterday.
But there is something more wonderful still.
When we look at the hundred and iitty-two little
boxes, somewhat shaded with the touch Of inky
fingers that compose the printers case, =
noiselcss except the clinking Of types, as one by
one they take their place in the growing line
we think we have found the marvel Of the art.
We think how many fancies in fragments
there are in boxes, how many atoms Of poetry
and eloquence the printer can make here and
there, il he only has little chart to work by,
how many facts in small handiuls, how much
truth and chaos al.0

At Sea.

The night was made for cooling shade,
For silence, and for sleep;
And when was q child, laid
My hands upon my breast, and prayed,
And sank to slumbers deep:
Childlike, as then, I lie tonight,
Aud watch my lonely cabin light.
Each movement OF the swaying lamp
Shows how the vessel reels,
And DER her deck the billoWslTamp,
And all her timbers strain and cramp
With every shock she feels:
II starts and shuddera while II burns,
And In It's hinged socket turns.
Now swinging low, and Sianting low,
II almost level lies;
And yet know, while to and fro,
watch the seeming psndule 60 L
With restless fall and rise,
The steady shaft Is still upright,
POising its little globe Of light.

Though weak and tossed, and III at ease,
Amid the roar Of shifting seas,

A heavenly trust my spirit Gains
My soul is filed with light;
The ocean sings his solemn psalms,
The wild winds chant-I cross my palms,
Happy, as n tonight,
Under the cottage roof again,
heard the soothing summer rain.

The Backtrians gave their dead to dogs kept
f.r the purpose In Thbet the same custom is
still in highly honored observance; and il is pre-
feIable to that Of the Galatians, who piously de-
voured their own dead themselves Again, the
presence Of horse at the funeral Of his once
martial master is remnant Of the old ceremony,
when the stccd was slain at the brnk Of
the grave, into which he was then tumbled on
the body Of his old rider. This ceremony was
performed as lately as the last century, at the
funeral Of German Ritter, with love for old
times and their manners. Every nation consil-
cred its own fashion the most religious, and
nothing seemed more disgusting to Calatian
who ate, or to the Balearic islanders who first
chopped their dead into sausage-meat and then
potted them for preservation" than the Roman
custom Oc incremation. Our Christian foreiath-
ers, too, had their yagarics. No one, for instance,
killed when engaged in worldly sports, could be
buried within the walls Of church, unless he was
slain at tournament Such an end showed him
to be Christian gentleman" and the excep-
ton was made in favor of his gentiity A SIM

first of the sons Of Louis XVI. who bore that
title As the courtiers repaired to this ceremony,
