Music has been the fashion this win

classes, large family parties, meetings
for dancing the German, and musicals,

foreigners brought letters have COM

ducing them into society. They could
dance, they could stand mute around
piano; these were the sole alternatives.
The leading pianists, Leonard Dresel,
Perabo, and few others, have been

Speaking On, In Charch.

A most amusing incident of speaking
out in church occurred some years ago
in u Scotch parish. The minister, in
preaching upon the story Of Jonah, ut
tered piece Of declamatory rhetoric to
something like the following: "And
what sort off fish was it my brethren,
that God had appointed to execute His
holy will i! Was it a shark, my breth-
rem Mott could not be q shark; for
God could never have ventured the per-
son of his beloved Prophet among the
deadly teeth of that ravenous fish.
What fish was it, then, my brethren !
Was it salmon, think ye: All TO;
that were too narrow lodging. There's
no ae salmon i the deep pool o a'Tweed
could swallow q man. Besides, ye ken,
it's mair natural for men to swallow
salmon, than for salmon to swallow
men. What, then, was ii Was it a
sea- lion, or u sea horse, or a sea dog, or
the great rhinOceros Oh, no. These

far afi-t as ever. Which of the non
sters Of the great deep was it, can you
tell me = Here an old specialized dame,
who had an eleemosynary seat OH the

was in real perplexity about the name
of the fish, interrupted him with, "Hoot

ISLAND PoND.-Quite an extensive
smuggling business over the Grand
Trunk has been discovered within
the last few days. The modus oper-
andi was as follows: Cars were
loaded with merchandise for the west,
and bonded through Canada. At St.
Hyacinthe, on some pretext, the cars
were set upon the siding, the seals of
the cars broken, and their contents
removed, and the same number of
boxes, barrels, bales, &C., of Canada
goods, bearing the same marks, were
put in, the cars resealed, the parties
being possessed of dies counterfeit
ing the United States, Canada and
station seals, and the goods were car.

detected by the customs officers al
Port Huron. By this means, they
contrived to smuggle both into and
out of Canada. The conductor EN-
ployed to set off the cars, having
been detected in smuggling whiskey
and discharged from the road, it be
came necessary to supply another con
ductor, but they CHANGED to hit upol
the wrong man, and through him tn
whole matter comes to light. Severa

4 Papers Free!

We this week commence to send the
Standard to many persons who are
not now subscribers to it. We send
it to them in the hope that they may
become subscribers after looking it
over and reading it few weeks. We
intend to send it to them four weeks
without charge, and if at the end of
that time they do not see fit to take
it they can return the paper TO US re-
fused. To do so will cost them moth
ing. Therefore if these persons re-
ceive the paper four weeks free we
think they can have no just cause for
complaint. If the paper is not re-
turned as soon as the four weeks is
out we shall take it for granted that
they wish it continued, and we shall
continue it, only charging from the
first OF January next. We do this
| because we wish to secure new and
good paying subscribers, and we re-
gard it the quickest and cheapest way
Of getting them. 1t costs heavily to
hire an agent to canvass the county
not less than $500 a day-which We
cannot afford to pay. We are aware
that many who thus receive the paper
will grumbIe and call it trick on oul
part to get them to take it. Not so
