Music on Monday evening, nth. An
immense audience was convened to re-
joice over the Fifteenth Amendment,
and black people and white mingled
their shouts of rejoicing and sang togeth-
er their hymn of praise. Senator Revels
was the great attraction and his speech
as well as those of Messrs. Beecher and
Garnett. gave great satisfaction. The
interest Of the meeting was at the culmi-
mating point when Mr.. Beecher, at the
close Of his speech. addressing Mr. KEY
els, and suiting the action to the word
said "And now, sir, ! tender you the
right hand of fellowship The audience
seeing the two men standing together
with hands clasped, went wild with en-
thusiasm. Turning to the audience, as
he unclosed his hand. Mr.. Beecher said;
''Fellow-citizens. l introduce to you an
American citizen, a senator Of the United
States of America-Mr. Revels.' The
scene was exciting and grand, and many
cheeks were wet with tears Of joy.-LN-

It is said that these fish are very fond Of
human beings for food, and usually
swallow their victuals whole. While the
FIVE feet sharks demur to six feet men as
a matter of fconvenience, they are espec-
tally fond Of three and a half and four
feet boys, on account of both convent
ence of size and delicacy of fiber. Ju-
venile bathers should be exceedingly
cautious until the tiger sharks go to sea.

ANECDOTES OF DOGS.

A dog belonged to a convent in France.
Twenty four poor beggars were daily
served with a dinner passed out to them
through an aperature in the wall by means
of tour, or revolving box. There was
bell rope hanging beside the opening.
Each beggar in turn rang the bell and re-
ceived his dinner. After time, the cook
noticed that twenty-five dinners were
passed out. A watch was set, and it was
discovered that after the beggars had each
received their proportion and turned away
this dog would go up and ring the bell
and get a dinner for himself. The au-
thorities of the convent, learning the case
decreed that the dog should continue to
have his dinuer for ringing for it.
Another case, related by gentleman
who saw it: A party of huntsmen had
to cross river, which they did by vim
ming their horses the pack of dogs all
following, except TERROR, who dreaded
the plunge. After looking on for time
with many distressful barks. he sudden
ly turned and ran swiftly up the bank
till ont of sight. There was bridge some
distance above After while the dog
came running down the other side of the
river, and joined his comrades.
There Is one more anecdote worth re-
lating, that is not in the books had it
from those admirable gentlewomen of the
old school, the Misses r., long time my
neighbors on the Passaic. They had
carriage dog that commonly accompanied
in their drives. Their cours often took
them across the river, over bridge four
miles from their residence. The keeper
of the toll house had big, surly mastif,
that always sailed out and attacked
their dog, who was no match for him, and
sometimes Beaujeu suffered severely so
that at length he declined accompanying
them if they took the road up the river
toward the bridge. The way through
the lawn from their house to the high
road was nearly half mile. One day,
when they came down to the gate, they
found the dog there waiting for them. As
soon as he saw them take the up river
road he turned and ran with great speed
back to the house. In very little while
he returned and overlook the carriage,
accompanied by powerful dog that ordi
narily kept about the house and grounds
and never went with the carriage The |
two trotted along. side by side, following
The carriage, until they came to the bridge
when the mastiff sailed out as usual. The
little dog then held back, and his big
comrade went at the assailant and gave
him tremendous Furnishing, evidently to
the little fellows great satisfaction.

TO COL. AND MRS. GEO. M'FARLAND,
ON THE DEATH OF ADDIE.

Written by Miss NJ. Maggie Taylor. daugh
n of Rev. ". q. Taylor, Principal Phillips
nrg Soldiers Orphan School, Beaver count
q. .Hi
A little grave on the hillside,
A little empty chair,
A vacant crib in the corner,
A curl of golden hair,
Two little empty gaiters,
That darlin daughter wore,
For the little feet are stilled in death,
And need them now no more.
All? We, who have never suffered,
How little can ye know,
How the sad heart is bowed to earth,
Beneath the Christening blow,
We know our God has saved her,
From bitterness and strife,
But oh ? what joy and gladness
Went out with that young life.
Our hearts still yearn most wildly
To hear again once more
The patter of her little feet
Upon the nursery floor +;
And oh for the ceaseless prattle,
How it would ease the heart
1t only makes the mourning ones
Feel more the bitter smart.
We have lost our little treasure,
A heaven born blessing sent,
We had almost thought in gladness
That she was giuen, not lent.
We own our Fathers loving care,
And yet we cannot tell
The goodness, or the power of Him
Who doeth al things well.
Who knows, if He had spared her,
In this sad world of care.
How much of JOY or sorrow
Would have fallen t. her share.
All. yes, she might have ventured,
Lured by SINS artful wiles, r-f
To tast the bitter, bitter cup .....
OF earths deceitful smiles.
Then give us grace to bare the rod,
knowing it falls in love, .. ...
And Though it wounds us deeply, ma
1t comes from God above. ...
And may light to US be given
To tell the gold from dross,
Write deeply on the stickcn heart
No crorn tr ithout cross.
