SELLING REPORTER Mr.. Russell,
who now represents the London Times here,
is the same gentlemen who was sent by that
journal to Ireland to report O'ConnelFs
speeches during The Repeal agitation. One
of the first meetings the newspaper man at
tended was in Kerry. Having heard OF
O'Connell's polite qualities, he thought he
would ask his permission TO take verba-
tim copy OF the oration. The "Liberator"
not only consented. but in his jolliest man
ner, Informed the assembled audience that
until that gintlemsn was provided with all
writin' convaniences. be wouldn't spake a
word," assuming an extra brOgue, which
was altogether unnecessary. Mr.. Russell
was delighted. The preparations began,
and we're completed; Russell was ready.
"Are you quite ready?" asked Dan.
"Qnite ready"
"Now, are you sure that you are entirely
EeadyW
"I'm certain, sir. Yes"
The crowd becoming excited and impa-
iient, Dan said: "NOwl'pon my conscience.
Iwon't begin the speech till the London
gintleman is entirely ready"
After waiting another moment or 80,
0'Connell advanced; eyes glistened; ears
were all attention; and the repOrtOrlal pen
oil arose. Dan gave one more benignant
smile on the correspondent, winked at the
auditors, and commenced his speech in the
Irish language, to the irrepressihe horror
of The present editor of the Army and Navy
Gazette, and to the infinite delight OF oil
Kerry.

SHAME To THE House OF BuLwER.-If any
thing could have transpired to throw the
literary world off its balance, it is the re-
cent discovery that the refined and some
what lengthy poem published about year
ago under the title of LUCILLE" with the
name of "Owen Meredith" "a nom de plume
Of Bolwer the younger) appended. is a
Wholesale plagiarism of the grossest descrip-
tion--being nothing better than an adapta-
tion. or clever parapbrase, Of an old and
Tong forgotten novel called 'Lavina," by
George Sand. The plagiarism would not
appear in such o glaring light were It not
for the fact that the author himself, in his
preface, boasts Of the originality of''Luclle"
as its distinguishing feature. In the dedi
cation of the book, which Is inscribed to
his father, he observes II have endeavored
to follow path in which could find no
footprints before me, either to guide or to
warn.n The English critics will not deal
very gently with that little aspirant.

Mass, n little hoy six years old was called

"Littlc boy, do you know what 1t is to
testify?
"I suppose it is to tell the truth"
"Yes. but what would be the consequence

KEEP THEM IN.-Keep your boys in at
night. Select attractive aud instructive pa
pers aud books. Invite suitable compan.
ions to be their associates and friends.
Multiply amusements and plays of the
healthful and wholesome sort, and aim to
make your dwellings the abodes of cheer
fulness and peace. But by all means keep
your children. at night. away not only from
evil haunts, but away from the street.
Know their whereabouts, with whom, and
where they are. 1t is under the cover of
the night usually that vulgar and pcofane
words, and vicious practices, and reckless
and criminal habits are usually acquired.
As the hen gathereth her chickens under
her wings. gather your children to yonr
homes and embrace as the shadows of the
evening fall upon the earth.
