promise that my table is large enough to

this shall be the purport of my letter.
Since our arrival at this happy spot we
have had ham sometimes shoulder)
of bacon to grace the head OF the table, q
piece of roast beef adorns the foot, and a
small dish OF greens and beans almost

dishes of crabs in addition, and on each

them, would be nearly twe'v feet apart

discover that apples will make pies, and
it is a great question if, amidst the vic

Further particulars of the terrible fire in
ConstantinOple are to hand The Levant
Times, which has very full account of the
catastrophe, says that the day will 60 down
to ali time as the most disastrous ever exper-
fenced by the Frank inhabitants of the Turk
ish capitol. The origin of the fire is now
Sscertained. A woman had sent her child
up stairs to bring down !" mangal IAN
open vessel containing lighted charcoal, for
the purpose of cooking. The mangal fell on
the stairs, window curtain caught fire, and
as the window was open, and there was q
strong wind blowing. the flames soon
spread. Unfortunately the house was Of
wood, and the street In which it was situated
Was very narrow, and the other houses were
also Of wood. In very short time the whole
neighborhood was in flames. The combus-
tible nature of the dwellings that first caught
combined with rushing wind which carried
large fragments OF burning matter an incred.
ible distance, caused the extraordinary
spread of the flames.
An erring Indiana hen was recently found in
the back part of q hardware store, where the
misguided fowl had Struggled for three weeks
trying to hatch out half dozen white
porcelain door knobs. She was very much
reduced.
The poet Longfellow was, en- one occasion,
at dinner party at which Nicholas Long
worth was present. Some one remarked to
Mr.. Lougfellow that his name and that to
Mr.. Longworth's started out alike, but
made very dissimilar ending. Yes, replied
the poet, and it affords only another proof
I am sfraid-that worth makes the man, the
want of 1t the fellow.

1t Is related that as some friends ofCamp-
bell, the author of Hohenlinden, were lea

number had the misfortune to fall down q
long fight of stairs. The poet alarmed by
the noise, opened the door and inquired, -

thought that was the only itemin the boy;
but the doctors got him around in week or

Germans were outnumbered and taken st
