number, and the mother one half of the bal
ance and half an apple over, and to the daugh
ter one half Of the remainder and half an ap-

you can have her. 2. He solved the question.

MISCELLANEOUS.
Some Time.

Say, who has not sat in the hush of twi-
light, and dreamed of bright some time
hereafter? Who has not pictured out on the
walls of fancy, sweet visions which shall make
life more Eden like by and by? Even now
does not the heart beat little lighter as the
hope of that some time is pictured freshly in
the mind ?
When the world goes wrong with US, and
We lose sight of the sunny hours that we were
so lately used to know, now soon it is that we
fndourselves looking away to some time which
is to come. Were it not for this some time
on which we build newer realizations, we
should often relax in our efforts to stem the
unsteady current of life. But it is like the
promises, of hope; and if we faint not by the
way, if we persevere in whatever we under
take, the sweet sunshine shall again smile en-
Us at some time.
If we have dream as yet unrealized, let
US ever hope it will come to pass some time.
Let US live in constant expectation even though
no genial beam of fortune smile upon US
Misfortune cannot always track our footstep
on the sands OF time. However dark the
world may be to day, with the morrow's light,
perchance, all shall look CHEEKY as the rosy
blush CT summer. 81. #

THE FRESHMAN AND THE NEGRo.-Ex-
Governor Briggs, Of Massachusetts,, used to
relate the following: Iu the old stage-coach
days, an freshman was travelling in New Eng
land. /, Arriving lac at the town where he
was to spend the night Pat discovered to his
dismay, that his only chance for sleep was to
share a couch of colored brother. The nat
ural repugnsnce of his race made him 10th to
accept ''the situation" but being very tired,
Ire submitted with as good grace as posi-
bic. In. the night some mischievous boys
blackeued his face. In the morning fifteen
miles were to be travelled before breakfast
Our Celtic friend was awakened just in time
to spring into the carriage as it was moving
off At their stopping place he found no
convenience for washing. Stepping up to
glass TO arrange his hair, he started back in
horror, ezcIaiming. ''Be jabers, you've woke
the dirty mayer, ed left me fifteen miles
behind!
