HUMOROUS.
Virtue of Necessity.

Phelim was young Irishman who wanted
to marry Kitty, who was young Irish girl.
Kitty father would not consent to the match,
and-the story runs thus
All of these things was Phelim cogitating
as ne was walking pensively along the river
the afternoon after his refusal A splash
awoke him from his reverie-he sprang to-,
wards the place he looked into the water
and good heavens up came the bald head of
kitty's father! Here was vengeance for him.
The old gentleman, could swim a little, just
enough to keep above water few minutes.
There was nothing for him to cling to, and
only Phelim in sight. Should he let him
drown, and go marry the girl? No, he would
save him. Irish generosity overbaIauced his
love, and, seizing long but very slender
pole, lying near by, he reached the end to
him. The old gentleman took it. Phelim
commenced hauling in, when n thought
struck HIM, and he showed him back into the
water, allowing him to still hold on to the
end of the pole.
'Do You know me, you old BLACKBOARD ?"
CAV course do-pull me up"
Are you entirely comfortable there in the
"Pull me up, ye spalpeen ~
"Faix, an that l won't. It's the furst
time liver see ye in the water, an it PLACES

"Pull me up"
"Will you consent? ?"
"Consent to what ?"
"Kitty-ye know well enough what I
name !"
"Niverw
ats all ono to me ys may drown intire-
", and who'll stop me thin Think twice
Will ye consent?'
The old gentleman was becoming exhaust
ed. He never liked water at best, und the
Maumee was too much for him.
Eyes; consent. Pull me up"
"Will you give us a sittin' out?" said
Phelim, who knew his advantage, and was
disposed to improve it.
eyes; pull me out"
Phelim hesitated a moment as to the pro-
Priety of tying him in some way to the dock
in the water and going up and marrying the
girl before saving him, aud then he hauled
him out of the water
The event proved that the old man was as
good as his word. The young couple were
married, and moved, with very suitable out
fit for housekeeping, into comfortable cot
tage which the father of Kitty possesses, aud
has heretofore rented.

THINGS THAT NEVER DIE.


The pure, tho bright, the beautiful.
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulse Of a woridless prayer
The dream Of love and truth
The lougings after sommethinS lostS
The spiTiI's yearning cry;
The stTiVinRs alter better hope
These things can never die!
Thatimid hand stretched firth to aid
A brother in his need
That kindly word in gTief's lark hour
That proves the friend indeed.
The plea of mercy softly breathed
When Justice threatens night
The sOTTUW Of n contCitc heart
These things can never die.
The memory of a elasping hand.
The pressure OF kiss,
And all the tTifes sEeet and fraiI
That make up loves 6rst bliss.
II With hrm' unchnnging faithD
And holy trust and high,
Those hands have clasped, those lipshaVe met,
These things sh1l never die.
The cruel and the bitter word,
That wounded as il fell,
The chilling want of sympathy,
We feel, but never tell.
The hard TePulse that chills the heart,
Whose hopes were bounding high,
In an unfading record kept
These things shall never die.
Let nothingPass, for every hand
Must lind come work to do;
Lose not 4 chance to Wakea love-
Be firm, and just and true
So shall light thatcannOt fade
Beam on thee from on high,
And angelTOiccs say to thee
These things shall never die.
