The Old Man and his Grandson.

Once upon time there was very old,
old Man, whose eyes were dim, his ears
useless for hearing, and his knees trem-.
bled. When he sat at the table he could
scarcely hold his spoon, and often he spill
ed his food over the table-cloth, aud some
times down his clothes. His son and
dsughter-in-law were much vexed about
this, and at last they made the old man
sit behind the oven in corner, and gave
him his meals in an earthen dish, and net
enough either; so that the poor old man
grew sad, and his eyes were moistened
with tears. Once his hands trembled so
much that he could not hold the dish, and
it fell on the ground and broke all to
pieces. so that the yonng wife scolded him,
but he made no reply, and only sighed.
After that they bought him a wooden dish,
for couple of pence, and out of that he
had now to feed; and and day, as he was
sitting in his usual place he saw his little
grandson, of four years old, upon the
ground fitting together some pieces Of
wood.
"What are you making 7" asked the old
man.
81 am making wooden trough" re-
Piled the child, ''for father and mother to
feed out of when l grow big"
AT these words the man looked at his
wife little while, and presently they be-
gan to cry, and henceforth they lee the old
grandfather sit at table with them, and
always take his meals there, and they did
not even say anything if he spilled little
upon the cloth. .,-. III

SIeep-Walkina,

A case is relatee of an English clergy
man who used to get up in the night,
light his candle, write sermons, correct
them with interlineations, and retire to
bed again, being all the time asleep.
The Archbishop of Bordeaux mentions
a similar case of student, who got up to
compose sermon while asleep, wrote it
correctly, read it over from one end to the
other, or at least appeared to read it, made
corrections on it, scratched out lines and
substituted others, put inits place a word
which had been omitted, composed music,
wrote it accurately down, and performed
other things equally surprising.
DR.. Gall notices miller who was in the
habit of getting up every night and at
tending to his usual avocations at the mill,
then returning to bed; on awakening in
the morning, he reccollected nothing of
what had passed during the night.
DR.. Blackjack, on one occasion, rose
from bed, to which he had retired at an
early hour, came into the room where his
family were assembled, conversed with
them, and afterwards entertained them
with a pleasant song, without his retain
ing, after he awoke, the least recollection
Of what he had done.
1t is singular, yet well-anthenticated
fact that in the disastrous retreat of Sir.
Iohn Moore, many of the soldiers fell
asleep, yet continued to march along with
heir comrades.

The Fox and the Geese.

The Fox one day came to a meadow
where flock of fine fat Geese were feed
ing; and he said, with grin, 81 am come
Just as if / had been invited; you sit to-
gether so charmingly, can eat you one
after the otherF The Geese cackled for
terror, and sprang to their feet, and began
to groan and beg pitifully for their lives,
but the Fox would hear nothing, and said,
"There is no mercy-you must die"
At length one of them took heart and
said, "1f we poor geese must at once give
our young lives, show US one single grace,
and permit us to say our prayers, that we
may not die in our sins. Afterwards We
will all stand in row, and you can then
pick out the fattest as you want u.s."
SWELL" said the fox, ''that is AUST and
pious request. Pray awayl l viii wait
for youP' ri 30, a
So the first one began a long prayer,
and, because it would not cease, the sec-
ond also commenced before his time and
cried, "Ga! ga! GAP The third and
fourth soon followed, and in a few minutes
they were all cackling together their
prayers.
When they have done praying, this tale
shall be continued; but meanwhile, as I
suppose, they are praying still.

A Little Nonsense.

The right man in the right place: A
husband when he is at home in the even
ing.
Why is prudent man like pin! Be-
cause his head prevents him from going
too far.
The definition of love is-"A prodigal
desire on the part of young man to pay
for some young woman's board"
Jinks says that prejudices against color
are very natural; and yet the prettiest girl
he ever knew was Olive Brown.
The phrase, "Fixed as the everlasting
hills" is quite inadmissible; there never
was hill that didn't slope.
A young lady who was asked by SEN
timental young man to share his lot want
ed to know how many acres there was in
that lot.
A White Mountain stage driver said TO
a New Yorker sitting by him, 81 s'pose if
| went to New York Ishould gawk around
just as you folks do up herep'
An old offender was recently introduced
to new country justice as John Simmons
alias Jones, ali0sSmith. '1'lI try the two
women first" said the justice; 'bring in
Alice Jones"
''My dear Horatio, 1 had very mys-
ferrous dream about you." "What was it,
dear!" 81 dreamed l saw you carried up
to heaven in golden chariot, surrounded
by angels clothed in white and purple.
What is that sign Of, deari" ut is
sign of foul stomach, my dear"
Lord Chesterfield, one day, at an inn
where he dined, complained very much
that the plates and dishes were dirty. The
waiter, with dreg of pertness, observed,
at is said that every one must eat a peck
of dirt before he dies" ''That may be
true" said Chesterfield, "but no one is
obliged to eat it all at one meal, you dirty
dog" ,.
AT a school in Connecticut there was
janitor who took care of the school build
iDgs, and he also kept boarders. One of
the boarders owed him 800, and as re-
ceipt for $50 or over requires two cent
stamp, the man gave the boy a receipt for
sl9,99, and gave him back one penny,
thus saving one cent Ifany one can beat
that meaness, lets hear of it.
To the boast of the Chicago Times that
no newspaper article in the country ever
produced such sensation as its article on
suffrage, the St Louis Times, a Copper
head paper, replies: 'Jane, who went
away plain and virtuous country lass,
came back to visit her old mistress in an
agony of crinoline and vulgar jewelry and
decorations. Bless me Jane, said her
old employer, where did you get all those
fine clothes z LA, missus,' replied Jane,

MORE Awful THAN THE tuDeMExr.-A
celebrated preacher of the seyenteeth CEN
tury, in speech to crowded audience,
described the terrors of the last Judgment
with such eloquence, pathos and force of
action, that some of his audience not on
ly burst into tears, but set forth piercing
cries, as if the Judge himself had been
present. and was about to pass upon them
their final sentence. In the height of this
excitement the preacher called upon them
to dry their tears and cease their cries, as
he was about to add something more aw-
full and astonishing than anything he had
yet brought before them. Silence being
obtained, he, with an agitated couhtenance
and solemn voice, addressed them thus:
'4n one quarter of an hour from this time
the emotions which you have just now ex-
hibited will be stifed; the remembrance
of the fearful truths which incited them
will vanish; you will return to your carnal
occupations or sinful pleasures with your
usual avidity, and you viii treat all you
huve heard as a tale that is told"

A Curious Theory,

A lecturer recently made the following
statements in regard to Philadelphia:
"Philadelphia is built on gold mine
1t is golden city. Its streets are paved
with gold, its houses are built of gold.
Under that city there is deposit of clay
measuring 10 square miles. This stratum
of clay has a thickness of about Is feet.
The chemist, in applying his tests has dis
covered that gold exists in that clay bed
to the value of three cents in each cubic
feet. In that vast clay deposit there are
l80,000,0O0 of cubic feet, in which is
diffused $126,0O0, 200. There is gold
enough in every brick made from it to
cover it with two square inches of gold
difused than has yet been brought from
Australia and California. He also esti-
mates the coal at 1000 cubic miles, which
would furnish 100000 tons annually for
over l, 100000 years.

How TO KEEP PooR.-There is no work
ing man but would rejoice to have the
way pointed out by which he might hon

us for prescription to insure poverty, and
yet there is many man who keeps him
self poor by indulging in the following:
Two glasses of ale a day, at ten cents, $7S;
three cigars, one after each meal, slOs. so ;
board for a big dog, sSo-all in one year,

JESUS WEPT."-JoHN xI IS.
The spicy grove, the lonely dell
OF Egypt, which he oft would seek,
Bore witness to the tears that fell
Fast flooding down the exile's cheek.
Though down his cheek the hot tears swept,
He did not weep as ''JEsUs wept."
The mother in the desert wild,
Where every rock and fount was dry,
Wept as she laid her only child,
And left him meath shrub to die.
Tho her loved boy in anguish slept
She did not weep as 'JEsUs wept."
When Judah's harps on willows hung.
That dropped along Enphrates' sides,
The air most wild with wailings rung,
And tear-drops swelled the flowing tide;
Tho Israei's sons were captives KEEP,
They did not weep as "JEsus wept.'
The grave before-around him, they
Who soon must know its silent gloom,
Without one hope, one cheering ray,
To guide the darkness Of the tomb;
Their slight had come but still they slept,
And as Saviour, "JEsUs wept' s.

Toledo Commercial. They were originally pub
lshed in the Lower Sandusky Wing, twenty
six years ago, and were written by young man
of more literary merit than pretension, who is
now one of our most honored citizens. A pen
of such real ability aud culture should not have
lain idle so long We hope that the light of
this poem will revive the Dr's literary ambition:
