OFFICIAL ScRUPLEs IN ENaLAND.-A recent in
.quiry and explanation in the House of Commons
illustrate the the English idea of official purity. -
1t was reported that Lord Clarence Paget, Score
tary of the Admiralty, had financial connections
with a firm of contractors. nv. Lygen called az
the matter in the House, in order to give the Sc
cretary an opportunity to furnish an explanation
If he could. 1t was shown that Lord Clarence
Paget had, in 1867, declined a seat at the Board
of Admiralty, because he was a shareholder in
como ships belonging to the firm alluded to, and
that in 1859, on accepting Office, be sold his shares
in the vessels at a great sacrifice, in order that he
might with p~ropriety assume the position offered
him. The proceedings were conducted with 9
dignity and courtesy which render them worthy
to be read carefully by some Of our congressman
and the result Of the investigation was the proof
of official scrupulousness in the secretary which
might we'll be commended to some Of our func-
~tionaries as worthy Of imitation,

THE POOR MANS SUNDAY WALK.
A. WARD.
BY CHARLES MACKAY.

By CHARLES MACKAY.
The morning Of our rest has come
The sun is shining clear;
| see it on the steeple.top
Put OF your shawl, my dear,
And lot us leave the smoky town,
The dense and stagnant lare,
And take our children by the hand
To see the fields again.
I've pinned for air the l%iveloug week;
For the smell of new mown hay,
For a pleasant, quiet, country walk,
On q sunny Sabbath day.
Our parish church is cola and damp;
need the air and sun;
Wen sit together on the grass,
And see the children run.
Well watch them gathering butter-cupS,
Or c~owslips in the dell,
Or listen to the cheerful sounds
OF the far-of village bell;
Aud thank our God with grateful hearts,
Though in the fields VIC pray;
And bless the healthful breeze of heaven,
On q sunny sabbath day.
Pm weary of the sitting room,
Where all the week we're pent;
or the alley filed with wretched life,
And odors pestilent.
And long once more to see the fields,
And the grazing sheep and beeves
To hear the lark amid the clouds,
And the wind among the leaves;
And all the sounds that glad the air
On green hills far away -
The sounds that breathe of Peace and Love,
On a sunny Sabbath day.
For somehow, though they call it wrong,
In church I cannot kneel
With half the natural thaukfnlness
And piety l feel,
When out on such a day as this,
lie upon the sod,
And think that every leaf and flower
Is grateful to its God;
That !, who feel the blessing more,
Should thank him more than they,
That l can elevate my soul
On a sunny Sabbath day.
Put on your shawl, and let us go -
For one day let US think
Of something else than daily care,
Or toll, and meat, and drink
For one day let our children sport
And feel their limbs their own:
For one Gay let us quite forget
The grief that we have known -
Let us forget that we are poori
And, basking in the ray,
Thank GJd hat we can still enjoy
A sunny Sabbath day.

WHY THE MOVING MACHINE WOULD
NOT WORK.

A few years since, when we we're pretty largely
engaged IN the sale OF reaping and moving ma
chimes, we received q note from a person to whom
we had sold a machine q few days previously,
which read as follows
DEAR SIR :--'I have tried my best to make that
internal machine work, but have not succeeded,
l have nearly killed my horses and myself too,and
still the devilish thing won't do any good. l want
you to come out in the irst train tomorrow morn
ing, end see what you can do with it,as | am hear
lily tired of it, aud will seEd it back Immediately,
unless you come out and make it work as guaran-
teed."
Yours, c.
With such a mmon there was, of course,
nothing short Of absolute compliance. We took
the first train, and reached the complainants field
ust in time 10 save the machine from utter dis.
grace. Our friend was, of course, excited and
angry. We took things coOlly, and proceeded to
examine the machine for the purpose Of ascertain
ing the whereabouts of the difficulty. We were
not long in discovering it.
At our request the horses drew the machine u
few steps. A creaking sound in the direction of
the gearing, as we'll as in the neighborhood of the

fact, no oil whatever had been applied. We next
examined the boxes, and found one of them so
tightly screwed down, that it was with difficulty
the shaft could be made to ~revo!ve, Next we took
a look at the knives, and here, if no causes had
existed elsewhere, was found enough to have pre-
vented any machine from working. Our friend
had not deemed it necessary to examine the knives
at all before putting them in the bar, in addition
to which his clover field abounded in stones, which
even in the little distance the machine had travel
ed, had SO battered the knives, that they would
not only not cut, bat it was with difficulty tina
they could be moved through the opening in tn,
guards.
We pointed out these causes as pleasantly a
we knew how, and called for oil. No oil on !h

, wrench with which to loosen the box. Such
thing had never been seen on the farm. We wit
difficulty succeeded in getting the knives out G

THE ATALANTIC MONTHLY.
BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH VOLUME

In assuming the control of the Atlantic Month
ly, its new proprietors deem it scarcely needful
to spend many words in assurances or promises.
The congratulations and good wishes they have
received from all parts of the country seem to JUS
tify them in the confidence that their own char
aeter as publishers will be accepted by the numer-
GUS readers and friends of the Magazine as a war
rant that they will do everything in their power to
increase its interest, to enlarge its circle of attrac-
ton, and to raise it's standard Of ability in all
departments.
They think il proper to say, simply, that no
change will be made in the general character OF
the magazine; that all the writers whose contribu-
tions have established it in the popular favor will
continue to make it their medium of commnnica.
ton with the public; and that the relations Of the
publishers with authors on both sides the Atlantic
will enable them to add materially to the variety,
interest, and value of its pages.
The Atlantic has never been, and will never be,
a sectional journal. Its publishers acknC WledR6
no parallels of latitude in the Republic of Letters;
and, while they will judge of any article offered
them, not by the source whence it comes, but by
its own intrinsic worth, they will at the same time
endeavor to maintain its character as a periodical
10 which earnest thinkers may find expression,
~unhampered by fear of that narrow censorship
which what is loudest. but not deepest, in Public
Opinion would fain establish.
TERMS. Three Dollars per annum, or twenty
five cents a number. Upon the receipt of the sub
s~cription price, the publishers will mail the work
to any part of the United States, prepaid. Sab
scriptions may begin with either the first or any
subsequent number. The postage of the Atlantic
