LIFE AT PAU.

PAU is n curious town, q favorite re-
sort Of invalids and idlers, whose popu-
lation consequently consists OF certain
number of inhabitants and q very great
many strangers. Everybody lets fur
nished apartments, from the humblest
citizen to the highest parsonage. Gen
erals, counts, and marquises advertise
their rooms with a south aspect and
fine view of the Pyrenees." There is
no harm in this; ii is excessively con-
venient; but it lately gave occasion for
q sharp retort.
Madame C, the wife of one Of the
richest merchants in Paris, was remark
ed for the elegance of her dress. Such
elegance, displayed by simple COM
moncr, displeased ono of the noble
DANES Of Pau, Madame la Comtesse
d'Asterisk.
"What do you call Mdt?" she said,
contemptuously glancing at the Paris
ienne.
"That is Madame c." was replied
to her.
"Ah! yes, Know" the Comtesse
answered. "She's dry-goods dealer"
Madame c., who overheard every
word of the conversation, inquired in
turn, loud enough to be heard, and
pointing with her finger to the naughty
lady, "What do you call Mat?o
"It Is Madame d'Asterisk."
"Ah! yes, | know. She's letter of
lodgings. We think of taking her
rooms next season."

Marcus Seaurus, Chief of the Senate
accused him publicly Of several high
crimes and misdemeanors. His zeal in
the prosecution tempted slave of Scau

himself privately as witness, But
justice here prevailed over revenge fol
Domitius, without uttering a single
word, ordered the perhdiOus wretch tC
be fettered and carried instantly to hi
master, So universally was this actor
admired, that 1t procured Domitiu'

have hoped for otherwise, He was sue

found there in great numbers, and
which the captain in his diary says,
"Went roaring about the woods like
wild CATTLE" were their main depend
ence for food.
After remaining in this place for more
than Il year some of the men became
discontented and mutinous, giving the
captain great deal of trouble. lie at
length adopted the plan of teaching
school in tho evening, reading prayers,
and reading and expounding the Scrip
lures to the best of his ability. He
found this plan to work admirably.
The men became much interested in the
Bible readings, and nine of them who
were unable to read learned every part.
" So much," remarks the captain in his
diary, {" for moral suasion." At last the
captain determined to leave the island.
The nearest land was New Zealand, four
hundred miles Off, and their only craft
was little dingy in which they had
escaped from the wreck. There was
extreme peril in crossing such a tract
of stormy ocean in such boat, but he
had grown almost desperate. He and
his men raised the sides of the boat, and
did what else they could to fit her for
sea. Only two, beside the captain, con-
sented to go in her, and they set off.
They reached New Zealand in safety,
where they at once chartered craft and
returned for their comrades, whom they
found and brought away.

INFLUENCE OF NEWSPAPERS

| OCCASIONALLY an individual says to
us, "Times are so hard within | must
stop my paper" or, as in some instances,
my wife thinks we can dispense with
the paper now, and | must stop" Thus
it is, stop the paper the first thing as q
useless expense, without thinkingof Of the
actual waste of money for many things
drank, eaten, smoked, or chewed, which
can do the system no good, but rather
harm. Tho newspaper can or should be
regarded as Il benefit to every households;
| it imparts useful information it fur
nishes subjects for thought and con-
versatiOn itadd3a charm TO social inter-
course it makes agreeable members of
society. TO be without newspaper
one might as well be out of the world /;
he becomes a perfect nobody when he
goes into society, and hear Others talk
about current events and discuss ques-
tionS of general or local interest, he can
take no part in these things because he
is not posted up, not having read the
papers. And in the family circle what
an influence the newspaper has-the
children read it and gain in knowledge
it serves to occupy their leisure hours,
to keep them from frivolousamuscments
and gives attraction to home. Surely,
then, no wise parent would consent to
go without IA newspaper in his family
and local home newspaper too. He
may think he can get along without it,
becausehe is out in the world, and can
have the reading of the paper from his
neighbours shop or store, or can learn
what is going on from others. But thi.
is rather mean way. Men ought to bt
independent. They ought to read fol
themselves. If, however, they do not
need thepaper themselves, they mayrest
assured that their family does. Consid-
erations like these should have weight,
and induce these who have thoughts OF
stopping their newspapers not TO do so,
and for those who have not taken paper
to subscribe at once.

Fairly in the month Of January,
1861, the captain and crew of a small
sailing vessel, sailing from Sydney,
Australia, were wrecked on one Of the
uninhabited islands of the Auckland
group, in the far South Pacific. They
lived there twenty months, without
seeing a human being other than them
selves. The only tools they had were Il
hammer, an axe, an adze, and Il ginlet
With these they contrived to make 4

A MODEL TEMPERANCE HOUSE

A FEW years ago, when the Maine
Liquor Law was in full force in Yer
mont, Judge c., of --, was on q
journey. He stopped at tavern in the
town of - for the night After sup
per the Judge asked the worthy land
lord for "a glass of gin." The landlord
said "he was sorry he could not accomo-
date him. am obliged by the law to
keep temperance house."
1t was late, so the Judge could not go
on that night, but told the landlord he
would leave carly the next morning,
before breakfast. Very well; / will
carry your valise and show you to your
room. The Judge was taken to fine
room the landlord said, 81 hope you
will be comfortable"
There was an open stove in the room,
where Judge c. found a bottle OF
brandy, He then went to his wash
stand and opened it he found bottle
of gin, water, glasses, etc. The Judge
then went to q cupboard, and there was
o bottle of old Bourbon. The Judge,
after helping himself, went down and
told the landlord he would not leave
