How THE PARsoN GOT ExcITED.-A
few years since, near the city of F,
in Connecticut, lived and preached old
Parson P, who was excitable and near
sighted. One day he had been in the
city with his horse, and among his pur-
chases was a barrel of -four, the head OF
which was partly out.
On the way home the old man was
over-taken and passed by q fast young
man, driving a horse and putting on
much airs. Now the Parsons horse
was usually q quiet, steady going ami
NAL enough, buthe couldn't stand that
sort of thing; so he started after him
of the first order, in good earnest.
The jolting of the wagon at length
Jared the head completely off the bar
rel, and the strong wind that was blow
ing directly after the parson, blew
the -four all over him and he horse.
At last the fast young man was left,
and the village reached ; but the speed
of hishorse was not checked.
In driving through a street to reach
his home, he came in contact with one
of his deacops, who was naturally su--
prised to see his minister driving at
such a pace and signsled him to stop.
"Why. Parsoh P" said he,
what on earth is the matter? You
seem greatly excited.
"Excitedp yelled the old man, tex
cited Who in hi wouldn't be excl
tedi Snow storm in July. Get up,
Dobbin."
The deacon smiled, but was silent.

A Gentle Rebukc.

A lady, riding ill car on the New York Central Railroad, was disturbed in her reading by the conversation of two gentlemen, occupying the seat just before her. One of them seemed to be a student of some college, on his way home for vacation.
 He used much profane language, greatly to the annoyance of the lady.
 She thought she would rebuke him, and on begging pardon for interrupt ing them, asked the young student if he had studied the languages.
 sYes, madame; I have mastered the languages quite well.'
 Do you read and speak Hebrew ?"
 Quite fuently.'
 "Will you be so kind as to do me a small favor?'
 "With great pleasure. am at your service.' ~
 "Will you be so kind as to do your swearing in Hebrew ?"
 We may well suppose the lady was not annoyed any more by the ungen- tlemanly language of the would be gentleman.

Goodbye.

Tho editor of tho Albany (N. Y.) Register comments upon these simple words, so common, and yet so full of solemn and tender meaning, as follows:
 'How many emotious cluster around that word! How full of sadness, and to us how full of sorrow it sounds! It is with us consecrated word. We heard it once within the year as we hope never to hear it again. It was in the chamber of death, in the still hour of nights noon. The curtains to the windows were all closed, the lights were all shaded, and VIC stood in the dim, solemn twilight with others around tho bed of the dying. The damps of death were on her pale young brow, and coldncss was on her lips. as we kissed her for the last lime while living. 'Good-byc, my daughter we whispered, and Goodbye. fMhcr,' came from her dying lips. We know not that she ever spoke more, but Goodbye was the last we ever heard of her sweet voice. We hear that sor- rowful word often and often as we sit alone, bnsied with the memories of the past. Ne hear it in the silence of the night, in the hours of nervous wake fnlness, as we lie upon our bed think ing of the loved and lost to us. We hear it in our dreams. when her sweet face comes back to us, as if was in love liness and beauty. We hear it when we sit beside her grave in the cemete- ry, where she sleeps alone, with no kindred as vet by her side. She was the hope of our life, tho prop to lean on when age should come upon as, and life should be running to it's dregs. The hope and prop is gone, and we care not how soon we go down to sleep be- side our darling. beneath the shadow of the trees in the city of the dead P

mportance orPresence of Mind

The following directions deserve to be cut out, and kept for the use and guidance ofevery family. There is not one of our readers but in the course of his or her experience, has had or will have use for one or more of them:
 Presence of mind, under nearly all the conditions, is half the battle.
 l. If a man faints. place him fiat on his back, and let him alone.
 ,. If any poison is swallowed, drink, instantly half glass of cold water, with q heaping teaspoonful each of common salt and ground mustard stirred into it. This vomits as soon as it reaches the stomach; but for fear some of the poison might remain, swallow the whites of one or two raw eggs, or drink a cup of strong coffee, these two being antidotes for greater number of poisons than dozen other articles known, with the advantage of their always being at hand; if not, a pint of sweet oil, or lamp oil, or drip pings,' or melted butter, or lard, are good substitutes, especially if they vomit quickly.
 3. The best thing to stop the blced- ing of moderate cut instantly, is to cover it profusely with cobwcb, flour and salt half and half.
 1. If the blood comes from the wound Inv infs ar cpitfc bo cprx or tho man will die in few minutes, because an artery is severed; tie handkerchief loosely around, near tho part between the wound and the heart put a stick between the handkerchief and the skin, and twist it around until the blood ceases to flow keep it there until the doctor comes if in n position where the handkerchief cannot be used, press the thumb on spot near the wound, between the wound and the heart in- crease the pressure until the bleeding ceases, but do not lessen the pressure for an instant before tho physicians ar riyes, so as to glue up the wound by coagulation or cooling of the harden ing blood
 ,. If your clothing takes fire, slide the hands down the dress, keeping them as close 10 the body as possible, at the same time sinking to the floor by bending the knees; this has smothering effect upon the flames; if not extinguishcd, or great headway gotten, lie down on the floor and roll over and over; or better cnvclop your- self in carpet-rug, bed cloth or any garment you can get hold of, always rreferring wooden.
 6. If the body is tired, rest; if the brain is tired, sleep. I
 '. If the bowels arc loose, lie down in warm bed, remain there aud eat nothing until you are well.
 &. If the action of the bowels docs not occur at the usual hour, eat not an atom until they do act, at. least for thirty-six hours, meanwhile drink largely of cold water or hot teas, and exercise in the open air to the extent of n gentle precipitation, and keep this up until things are rightcd This sug- gestion, if practiccd, would save myr- iads of lives every year, both in the city and the country.

A New Disease.

A western newspaper notices the prevalence of new disease called the pipsynipsy, and thinks it peculiar to that section. We do not know that the exact disease has made its appearance vet, but the remedy is in general use. The disease is described as follows:
 A sudden depression of the collipsis diniX, a caving in of tho spinalty of the backbonibus, and feeling of slim ness in the immediate vicinity of tho diaphragm, may be regarded as symp- toms that the complaint is coming on. The following remedy will afford i'm stant relief:
 Spiritus vini Otard, 2. l.; sugarum whitum, q. S.; icibus coolus, q. r.; shakistc violenter; addus sprigus min tus duus, and suckitc cum strawum. We have heard it said that it is worth while having the disease for the sake of the remedy. There are other pre- scriptions, however, which may be of use. Thus for the squimpus, which manifests itself by an alveolar cxcrush- ment of the flabelle, and sudden ex- plosion of the sclopulum among the minor deltoids of the guyastrupus, we should take:
 Tine. Peruvii barki bitters, oz.
 Sugari albi, vel swcetningus, consid- erabilibus.

The Modern and Ancient Ulysses and how III HistOry don't Repeat Itself Sometimes,

The Belfast (Me.) Journal has the following good thing on "the pretty little boy, Ulysses"
 Away in the Greek times there arose q. little unpleasantness with the Tro- jans, on account of good looking girl, called Helen. Ulysses tried hard with the rest to get into the city of Troy, but failed until he came horse-j jockey trick over the Trojans, and got inside the belly of wooden horse (not saw horsc.) So it will be seen that the Ulysses of to-day comes fairly by his propensity to "talk horse" After this little affair, Ulysses, in his wandcrings, fell info the power of the grand Cy clops-but inviting him to ''takc some thing" the Radical nominees namesake drank him drunk in seven minutes, by a Waltham watch, put out his one eye, and vamoused the rancho. It was thought to be good joke, but Cyclops could not sec it.
 When Ulysses again went to sea he was furnished with a large bag ofwind for his personal use. How exact the parllel! This bag of wind, designed to propel his vessel, was pricked at the wrong time, and blew Ulysses just where he didn't want to go, damaged his craft good deal, and forced him to bear up for repairs, with no insur- ance on cargo, and no claim for average, general or particular. Ulysses next landed where part of his followers be- came swine, with permission to'"root hog or die." And for some time Ulysses himself followed the occupa- ton of swineherd, becoming about as badly off as the prodigal son, with no fatted calf ahead. He was so constant ly with his swine that he came to understand their language, and used it himself, until he became known as Ulysses Grunt. Here the coincidence is very remarkable! At last, ill little misunderstanding with his son, com corning the price of spare-rihs, the pro- gcny inserted few inches of steel be- tween his parents own ribs, and that finished the namesake of the Radical nominee. This is supposed to forecast the fate of the present Ulysses Grant. If he don't go the whole hog, Ben Butler will have him impeached.
