a Dresden correspondent of the Cleveland
P.aiadealer thus writes of what happened b.
him ION awaking in the morning, after nights

You can imagine my terror when, upon
early day, our door was opened and female
form slowly and carefully glided into our room,
and coming to the head of my bed took off
from the bed-post my vest. / saw it all with
one eye partially opened; but what could 1

not be understood if l spoke. She felt for
my watch and drew it out, carefully disen-
gaging the chain hook from the button hole.
A cold chill came over me, bat remained as
quiet as a stone. She laid the watch upon
the table; next she took my coat in which
was my little stamps circular notes, bills of
exchange, memorandum book, passport, etc.
These she gracefully drew out and placed up
on the table. Next came my pants from
close beside my bed These she took Next
my Overcoat, which hung upon the rack
Then she proceeded TO the opposite side of
the room and performed like ceremony with
the apparel of my companion, when, with all
this load Of integuments, together with our
boots, she disappeared from the room. AS
she closed the door, we both arose upright in
bed and wondered what all that meant. We
had each observed the operation with single
eye, and equally fearful of making an alarm

method to tie my camel. Here we are, two

miles from home and not thread to put on.

families, how they had clothing and to spare,
but-well, a thought occurred to me that
perhaps this was the way they got so many

specimens as we are and set them up. The

VIE La Libertie.

Imprisonment for debt no longer exists in
France. The doors Of what is here called
Clichy House, have been thrown open, and
free, much to the annoyance of some, who
had settled down very comfortably in the Rue
de Clichy, as they thought for life.
The day before the prison gates were to be
thrown open a mock funeral took place at the
prison over the effigy of Madame Contrairi,e
par corps, or incarceration for debt. 4 NOR
tuary chapel was erected on the third floor,
where the deceased lady was lying in state
Eight hundred persons, each bearing lighted
wax candle, assembled in hilarious procession,
and then decended, marched along the pas
sages, and went into the garden, round which
they marched to rose tree beneath which
the grave had been dug.
The pail was borne by four Of the debtors
deputed for the purpose. who made themselves
rs funny as possible. When the remains were
being carried into the garden the merry
mourners broke out in joyous strains in mem
DRY of their ''dear dove" and sung in chorus
"Laugh away over the dear departed. On
reaching the second floor funeral chaunt
was sung TO the tune of MRlbrout's Sen va
t en- gendree." As soon as the remains were
lowered all broke out in joyous song, and the
chorus. imprisonment for debt is dead" was
Joined in by everybody. The prison poet,
Mons. Georges Mullet, wrote an inscription,
which was placed over the tomb, calling upon
passers by to laugh over the ashes of most
terrible scourge. The mournGrs then retired
in the same merry mood in which they had

When Mays sweet bloom U-Rs on the. year,
When Spring time brought the roses back
And birds Of cong gain were here!
She laid her fair white hand in mine
And muFmured low she slowed me Well,''
While there beneath the silent moon
Our gushing tears together fell
The silent moon rolled on above,
We could not tsOF ourselves away,
We needed not the fight of tune,
But fingered till the dawn of day!

II Thank Thee, Jew"

The following admirable anecdote is from
Brcslau, and is of recent date. Not long
since an elderly man, with bare head, stood
In an eating house, surrounded by crowd of
people. The landlord held the mans hat
and cane in his hands, and an impudent wait
er stood between the guest and the door,
The confusion of the old man was indescriba>
BILE. lie seemed to be for the first time in
such a scrape, said nothing, looked down on
the ground and with difficulty restrained his
tears, while all around Knocked and jeered
him. Just then poorly dressed jew, with
n long white beard, entered, and inquired
what 1t all meant, and with an expression of
almost feminine curiosity. He was told that
the man had eaten and drank, and now that
he must pay, he searched his pockets in vain
for money. "Well." exclaimed the Jew, 81
see the old man for the first time, but I'll be
bound he did not como here to cheat. Aud
landlord, suppose he had no money to forget,
couldn't you for once give poor man some
thing to eat for Gods sake? How much
does he owe, anyhow ~ The debt was eight
silver groschen. and the Jew paying this,
took the poor old man 0y the hand and led
him to the door. Those present did not seem
to enjoy the reproOf which their brutality had
received, and one iusolent fellow cried out
"llcy! jew, what have you done this is the
Sabbath, and You have touched money -
This is forbidden to the Israelitcs.] you
arc right" answered the jew Just now
forgot that was jew, just as you forgot
that you were Christians. But you NAV rest
easy on my account; understand my COM
mandment which says, Honor the Sabbath
day and keep it holy Just get some school,
master to OK plain it to you, and if he is
reasonable man, he will agree with me-
Good deeds have no Sabbath" And with
those words the c,nnd man Loft the rnnn,

Was IT PRovIDESTIAL.-A man, who is
still stout and good servant of TIE railway
company, in whose employ he has been for
some thirty years, was ON duty one night on
the platform where he is still stationed, when
the London train came in. Among the
passengers was one gentleman who missed his
footing at the carriage door just as the train
was about to start, and fell between the plat
form and wheels. At that instant the train
moved on. Another moment and all would
have been over; but strong hand had
seized him and twitched him on the platform;
so, with no worse injury than a fright and a
shaking, the passenger went his way.
Had the ticket collector not been there or
bad he been less ready, the history of the
world would read, no man can say how
differently; for the traveller was Louis Ma
pOleon.
