recently been afforded by an action brought
against one of the species for libelling highly
respectable medical practitioner residing in a
country town. Wishing to recommend the
doctor in question, and EMPLOYING the elegant
style OF slang somuch in vogue amongst his class
he said that "Mr. So-and-so was the crack doc

peculiar dtsttngue pronunciation of their made
the speech sound so very like ''the quack doctor

the only course left open to the doctor BY which

A ToUCHING SIGHT. Nothing can be more
touching than to behold a soft and tender wo-
man, who had been all weakness and depends
ance while treading the prosperous paths of
life, suddenly rising in mental force to be the
comforter and supporter other husband under
misfortune AS the vine, which has long twined
its graceful foliage about the oak and been lift
ed by it into sunshine, will when the hardy
tree is rifted by the thunderbolt, cling rouud it
with its caressing tendrils, and bind up its
shattered boughs 80 woman, who is the depend
ant and ornament of man in his happier hours,
should be his stay and solace when smitten
with sudden and irretrievable calamity.

The Chinese are often compelled to make
their dwellings in large boats on the rivers. An
officer in the navy says he observed one ofthese
who kept ducks Tor living, practice an odd
piece ofingenuity. In the day time the ducks
were permitted to float about, but in the nights
time they were carefully collected. The keeper
when the night set in, gave a whistle, when the
ducks always flew toward him with violent
speed, so that they were invariably gathered in
minute. How do you suppose he had educated
his flock so efectually? He always beat the last
duck.

The CULTURE OF SoREow.-Nearly all sor-
row, while it lasts, depresses action, destroys
hops and brushes energy but it renders the
constituencies more acute, the sym pathies more
genial, and the whole character less selfish and
more considerate. 1t is said that in nature
but for the occasional seasons of drought, the
best lands would soon degenerate; but these
seasons cause the lands to suck up from the
currents beneath, with the moisture all those
mineral manures that restore and fcrtilize the
SOIL above, 1t is thus with sickness and with
sorrow once surmounted, they fertilize the
character and develope from the deep fountain:
OF the human heart Joy and fruitfulness no
otherwise attainable.

MISCELLANEOUS.

THE AMALGAMATIoN OF LANGUAGEs.-There is
a growing tendency in this age to appropriate the
most expressive words of other languages, and af
ter while to incorporate them into our own thus
the word Cephalic which is from the Greek, signi.
ing "for the head is now becoming popularized
in connection with Mr.. Spalding's great Headache
remedy, but it will soon be used in a more general
way, and the word Cephalic will become as com
mon as Electrotype and many others whose dis
tnoton rs foreign words has been worn away by
common usage until they seem native and to the
manor born"

An incident of Life in the Gold
Region

Among the deep defles ofthe Rocky Noun
talns, lately, small company of men stood
around the new>made grave offs dead comrade.
Wlth heads uncovered they listened atten
nVely TO the words of the preacher as he Of
fered up prayer. While in the midst oft one
OF the company discovered ''the color" in the
earth at his feet thrown up for to make room
fer the remains of the deceased In a loud
whisper he communicated the rather exciting
intelligence to his companion. All heard it,
even the clergyman, who, suspending his pray,
err opened his eyes to see his auditory scatter
in every direction to stake off gold claims. Call
ing in loud voice to them to stake him off a
claim" he reclosed his eyes, hastily conclud-
ed his prayer, and started off on run to join
his fellows in securing claim.

TWENTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS SAvED.-Mr
Spalding has sold two millions of bottles of his Gel
ebrated Prepared Glue, and it is estimated that
each bottle saves at least ten dollars worth of bro
ken furniture thus making an aggregate of ten
millions of dollars reclaimed from total loss by this
valuable invention. Having made his Glue a
household word, he now proposes to do the world
still greater service by curing all the aching heads
with his Cephalic Pills. and ii they are as good as
his Glue, Headaches will soon vanish away like
snow in July.

The HEARTS DoOR.-The heart is by ma
ture closed chamber. We may stand by its
windows and look in, but its secrets we cannot
explore. Nowhere are we greater strangers
than here. We may consider ourselves at home
in it, but after all it battles our inquiries, and
treats US as soourners. We nay have our own
theories about tive may compliment ourselves
about its excellence-but these theories are all
shadows. Unless God is pleased to wake us to
the truth, we live and die deceiving and deceiv-
ed. But let Him touch our eyes, and then the
shadows fall. Door after door is opened, vault
after vault uncovered. The bolts OF prejudice,
of selfishness, of avarice, are loosened.

AS men grow rich they grow mean. Why
know men-pious men--who actually perjure
themselves about the value of their property,
that they may save what isjustly due the city

the biggest one lies through the heart, and the
devil daily runs trains through and through.

When the eye is irritated by dust or intrusive

shuts and rubs his eye, and not unfreque ntly the
removal of the irritating cause thereby becomes

the eye open as if staring, a sort Of rotary mo-
