The Champion Eater the United States
is named Josiah Plumb. A few days ago he
entered restaurant in Hudson, n, Y, and
offered to eat all that any one would pay
for. The challenge having been accepted,
disposed of the following articles Ten
pieces of apple pie, six corn cakes quarter
of pound of crackers. six cups eff peanuts
thirty picked clans, four lemons, an ounce
of candy, and two bowls of clam soup. He
then drank six tumblers of water, and offered
to eat hundred raw oysters. No one doubted
his ability to accomplish the feat, but no
one was willing to pay for the oysters, and
so he went off grumbling that he wasn't half
full.
An Official Report on the railway disasters
in Great Britain last year shows that 2O9
persons were killed and 795 wounded-tota
one thousand and fourteen. OF the persons
killed, EOS were servants OF the companies
or contractors. and 90 of the wounded. The
sin nidcant note is added, that the report of
accidents to servants of the companies and
contractors cannot be looked upon as CON-
plete, as many railway Companies, not being
required to do so by law, do not report to
the Board Of Trade every accident which
may befall this class of persons. The total
number Of passengers who Travelled was $780,
sos. 9s2 in England alone.
Mrs. Foote, wife of the Commissioner Of
Patents, is said to be an inventor. One OF
her inventions Is strape:s skate.

How TO GRAFT GRAPE VIHEs.-A Co
respondent Of the Ashville, N. c., Nc1os n.

ate and search for the largest and mo.t
thrifty, cutting them loose from the collar,
and with pegs bringing them to horizon
tai position. Cut of the end smoothly and
graft Just as you would an apple tree, !eav.
ing at least two buds or eyes, and then
place large hill around it, reaching to tho
top of the graft, covering the upper buds
an inch with loose dirt, free from clods, and
then if the graft fails to grow, it is because
the scions had lost their vitality before the
work was done. Ii the roots are thrifty and
in rich ground, the vines will grow eight to
sixteen feet in length the first year, aud
will grow crop Of grapes the second year

DRESSING FOR CHURcH.--Very estimable,
and We trust very religious young women,
sometimes enter the house of God in cos
tune which makes the acts of devotion in
them seem almost a burlesque. When a
brisk little creature comes into pew with
her hair frizzled till it stands on ends in
most startling manner, rattling strings of
beads and bits of tinsel. she may look ex-
ceedingly pretty and piguaHt'j and it she
came there for a game of croquet, or tab
lesu party, would be all in very good taste |;
but AS she came to confess that she is mise.
rable sinner, and to renounce all pomps and
vani,ies--that she has done the things she
ought not to have done, and left undone the
things she ought to have d0ne--as she takes
upnn her lips most solemn and tremend Gus
words, whose meaning runs far beyond life
into sublime eternity--there is discrepancy
which would be ludicrous if it werO not
melaneholy.--Ars. Ii. b. St0we.

San unloved wife," who ought to know
of that which she speaks, because she has
had so much experiences, says that the rea-
son that ladies look so much to money in
the matter of marriage, is, that nowadays
they so seldom find anything else in man
worth having.
A young lady, the other day, in the course
of lecture, said Get married, young man,
aud be quick about it, too. Don't wait for
the millennium, hoping that the girls would
turn angels before you trust yourself to one
of them. A pretty thing you would be
alongside of an angel, wouldn't you, you
brute"
A lady in Boston, who was about giving
a party to the members Of the Protestant
Episcopal convention, sent for Mis-, a
caterer, to assist in the preparations. He
asked if she intended to give a dancing
party. She replied that it was to 5e mainly
composed of elergymen. "In that case,
madame" said he, ~ would advise you to
provide bountifully. Them pious folks are
dreadful esters-when it's free !"

RULES FOR GREEN SKATERs.-1. Never
try to skate in two directions at once. This
feat has often been attempted by new begin
ners but never successfully. 1t always ends
in sorrow.
2. Eat few apples for refreshments sake
while skating, and be sure to throw cores on
the ice for fast skaters to break their shins
over. Fast skaters are your enemies, and
should not be allowed to enjoy themselves
peaceahly.
3. Sit down occasionally, no matter where
right in the way of the rest of the party,
if you want to. There is no law to prevent
a new beginner from sitting down whenever
he has an inclination to do so.
4. When you meet particularly hand.
some lady, try to skate on both sides of her
at once. This is very pretty, and sure to
create a sensation. If the lady's big brother
is in sight, it is we'll to omit .his.
5. Skate over all the small boys at once
Knock 'em down. 1t makes great fun, and
they like it.
6. If you skate into hole in the ice take
it coolly. Think how you would feel if the
water was boiling hot.
7. Ii your skates are too slippery buy a
new pair. Keep buying new pairs till you
find pair that are not slippery.
s. In sitting down, do it gradually
Don't be too sudden you might break the
ice.
.. When you fall headlong examine the
straps of your skates before you get up. This
will make every body think you fell because
your skate was loose. Beginners always do,
you know.
| 10. Wear heavy overcoat, or cloak, till
you get thoroughly warmed up, and then
throw it off, and let the wind cool you. This
will insure find cold that will last you q:
! long as you live.
II. After you get so that you can skate
tolerably well, skate yourselves sick imme'
diately Don't be reasonable about it skate
three or four hours--skate tically--skats
ill you can't stand up. Do this every day
and it will be sure to make you sick at last
and then you may die, and that will bt
excellent it will be such good example tc
the rest of the young people.

THE SAILOR Boys FAREWELL.

Farewell to father, blessed hulk,
In spite of metal, spite of bulk,
His cable soon may slip;
While yet the parting tear is moist,
The flag Of gratitude III hoist
In duty TO the ship.
Farewell to mother, first-rlass she,
Who launched me on life's stormy sea,
And rugged me fore and aft
May Providence her timbers spare,
And keep her hull in good repair,
To tow the smaller craft.
Farewell to sister. lovely yacht,
But whether she'll be manned or not
cannot now foresee;
May some good ship tender prove,
Well found in stores of truth and love,
And take her under lea.
Farewell to George, the jolly boat,
And all the litto craft afoat,
In homes delightful bay;
When they arrive at sailing age,
May wisdom prove tho weather guage,
And guido them on their way.
Farewell to all on lifes rude main,
And though we ne'er may meet again,
Through stress Of stormy weather;
Yet summoned by the head above,
Well harbor in tho port Of love,
And all be moored together.
