The squire had friend to visit him on
business, and was very much annoyed to be
interrupted by bis wife, who came to ask
him what be wanted for dinner.
60 away! let us alone !" impatiently
said the squire.
Business detained the friend until after
dinner time, and the squire urged him to
remain. The squire was a generous pro-
wider, proud Of bis table, and be com
Placently escorted his friend to a seat. A
little to the surprise of both, they saw
nothing on the board but a huge dish Of
salad. which the good wife began quietly
10 dish mp.
My dear" said the Squire, G where
are the meats?"
There are none to-day" said bis lady.
No meats ? What in the name Of
poverty! The vegetables then. Why
don't you have them brought in?''
You didn't order any"
"Order ! / didn't order anything" said
the amazed squire.
"You forget" cody answered the
housewife. 8" asked what you should
have. and you said, lettuce alone Here
it is."
The friend burst into laugh, and the
squire, after looking lugubrious a moment,
joined in.
Wife, give it up. / owe you one.
Hare in that $50 you wanted for that car
pet which I denied you.' Tho squire
forked over. Now let us have peace,
and some dinuer"
The good woman pocketed the paper,
rang the bell, and . sumptuous repast of
fish. poultry and vegetables was brought in.
A few days afterward the squire re-
manned working in his garden some time
after the usual tea hour His wife grew
impatient Of delay, and went to find him.
His excuse when asked what be was wait
ing for, threw her into futter of excite
ment.
Some ones to come to supper" she
exclaimed. Why didn't you tell me
declare you are the prOvokingest Of men"
And without asking which of his friends
was expected, she FASTENED to change her
dress and slick up her hair for the occasion.
This done, she came out and found the
squire seated at the table, reading the
newspaper.
Where's your company p
my company! haven't any com
pany."
But you said you expected somebody
to supper" exclaimed the indignant wife
"My dear, I said no such thing. You
asked me what was waiting for, and /
said summons to come to suPper-that's
what was waiting for, my dear, and !
come ut once"
"And you have made me 60, and change
my dress. Oh, I'll pay you for this"

A Reform Movement Three Hundred
Years Ago.

The Rev. III. Solly, Of London, re-
Gently delivered . lecture on "The
Present War in Germany, or, Reform
Movement Three Hundred Years
Ago" In the course Of his address he
said:
The remarkable revolution upon
which he had arranged to treat, and
which took place in Germany about
three hundred years ago, had been too
much neglected by historians, who
were apt to overlook much which con-
cerned the history cf the people. The
insurrectiOn to which he referred
spread from the frontier Of France
right across Germany 10 the Carpa-
THAN mountains, and as the result of
the outbreak about 100, 900 peasants
lost their lives. AS to the cause Of the
people taking up arms. he said they
were not agitating for political rights,
for the franchise, or any of those things
for which Englishmen had agitated
during the past fifty years. In order
to explain why the people arose, the
lecturer traced the gradual decline of
freedom in Germany from the time
the brave Teutonic races settled down
as free peasant proprietors on their
own lands to the days of serfdom and
vassalsge under the feudal system.
Having then described the various
efforts made by the oppressed peasants
to get redress for grievances which
were admitted by all classes to be very
serious, and the total failure of their
successive attempts to remedy the
state of things by recourse to arms,
and which were invariably crushed
with fearful bloodshed, and under cir
cumstances too often of revolving
cruelty, he proceeded to point few

Her husband, however. bethought him OF
scheme which proved successful on the
following day, be brought home another
which was put IN beside its refractory klns-
man, and afterwards, when she came WITH
vietuals, they immediately commenced
fighting about their respective shares. lt
was then scho should get most and each
would have eaten up the whole, If it's SKIN
would have contained as much. The bee
is said to gather honey from every flower ;
and there are some people who will learn
something from every incident. Nelly IN
stantly discovered q strong analogy between
the case of the single pig and its victuals,
and the case Of young woman with q
single sweetheart and, having discovered
an analogy in the cases, she felt certain that
there must also be an analogy in the cures.
The present emergency seemed to be most
favorable opportunity for trying the correct
ness Of this theory by that best of all pos
sible tests-an experiment; and she forth
with resolved, were the thing practicable,
that Jenny should have new sweetheart,
if preadventure his presence would produce
a favorable revolution in the sentiments of
the old one. rs 4t.
Measures were accordingly adopted, and
the most feasible schemes were laid
schemes which, with proper management,
could hardly have failed Of success. Jenny
also received such hints and instructions as
were deemed necessary to enable her to act
her part. But Jenny was. as her mother
phrased it, g an even-forrit, silly, simple
lassie - and in her hands nothing succeed
ed. 1t was with the utmost difficulty that
she could be brought to give the slightest
to q new lover, and if at
any time she did muster sufficient resolution
to smile upon a rival in the presence Of
Sandy Crawford, her eye Immediately turned
upon the latter, to see if he approved of
what she had done; and when, in his
guarded look, she could read neither appro-
baton nor disapprobation. deep Sigh com
monty revealed her apprehensions for kav-
ng done wrong. The preposterousness of
'uch conduct needs no remark its evident

slightest suspicious of having a competitor

Want Of Confidence.

Sidney Smith, in his work on moral
philosophy, speaks in this wise Of what mer
lose for the want Of little brass, as il ID
termed
A great deal Of talent is lost to the world
for the want Of little courage. Everyday
sends to the grave a number Of Obscure
men, who have only remained in ebsecurity
because their timidity has prevented them
from making first effort, and who, if they
could have been induced to begin, would in
all probability have gone great lengths in
the career Of fame. The fact is, that in
order to do anything in this world worth
doing, we must not stand shiveriDg on the
banks, thinking Of the cold aad danger, but
jump in and scramble through as well as
as we can. 1t will not do to be perpetually
calculating risks and adjusting the chances.
AN invention has recently been made
by Mr.. Stephen Treddenham, of Lambeth,
England, which attracts considerable atten-
tic It consists in the application Of ma
Chi .ry to twisting iron and other metals in
the manufa cture of balusters, window
guards, bedsteads, balconies, gates, and
other works Of the class now usually bro
duced in cast and wrought iron. The in
vention appears chiefly notable for some i'm
Provement in the metal, which renders its
products cheap, susceptible Of beautiful
forms, and adapted to variety Of uses fo-
which il has hitherto been consider ed nm
suited by the costliness Of production.

Republican Split in Missouri.

The Republican party in Missouri is
hopelessly split, the point at issue being
whether the existing acknowledgements
in the State should be maintained or
abrogated. In the State convention
two resolutions-majority and minority
were reported, and on the question OF
adoption the split came-439 delegates
voting to adopt the minority resolutions
which declares the time arrived in
Missouri for a removal of all political
disabilities, and 342 delegates voting
against that resolution and in favor
Of the majority report, which virtually
indorses a continuance of existing re-
strictions. Senator Drake, il is almost
superhuous to say, led the prescription
ist wing. Senator Schurz led the en-
reimbursement party, and under his
Guidance a secession movement took
place the convention splitting in two
bodies, which met in seperate apart
ments, adopted different platforms, and
nominated different candidates for the
Governorship, the present executive,
McClurg, receiving the proscriptionist
and B. Gratz Brown the enfranchise-
ment nomination. The democrats have
held no convention, nor will they, but
in all probability throw their vote IN
favor of the liberal candidate, Mr..
Brown. Appearances indicate that he
will carry the State by good majority,
which all real-friends of government
of the people will earnestly desire.

The Census.

Aside from the indispensable advan-
tages of a correctly taken census to the
statistician and the historian, it must
have a vital political importance in
countries where the people govern
themselves, electing their representa-
tives in municipal councils, in the Leg
islature and on the bench. 1t is, there
fore, not surprising that the citizens OF
New York begin to scrutanize closely
the alleged results Of the recent census.
They demand an investigation of the
census Of the reported and improbable
decrease in the population Of a me,
tropolis which, for years past, has
been extending its borders and
receiving, in addition to the naturally
multiplying number of births, continual
accessions by immigration from every
State in the Union as well as from all
foreign countries. Each day brings us
letters complaining Of the neglect and
ignorance OF many of the deputy mar
shals who have been charged with
taking the census of this city. In one
instance a house occupied by forty
boarders was entirely overlooked by
them. In fact, so many similar IN
stances have been brought to our atten,
ton as to suggest the suspicion
that they must be guilty Of some
thing worse than negligence and
stupidity. The very selection Of sc
unsuitable time for taking the census
as summer, when the absentees from
town cannot be estimated at less than
two hundred thousand, might warrant
suspicion that the leaders OF the Radi
cal party have expressly availed them
selves of an opportunity to apparently
corroborate their favorite assumption
that at our city elections more votes
are polled in some Of the wards than
there are voters or other residents.
False census returns, it may be imag
ined, will help them to diminish the
strength of their opponents at the ap
preaching elections. But there is rea'
son to believe that for once they have
overshot their mark. The censu:
returns are simply incredible, and the
public is determined TO find out how
and why these returns have been falsi
fed. IT has been intimated that the
controlling motive for such falsifcations
is a protested desire to secure the purity
of elections, desire strong enough te
make the leaders OF the Radical party
fool and act as if this desirable END
sanctifies the use OF the vilest
means. But it would be easier to pu
this charitable construction on the cas'
| if the extravagant claims OF the Radi
Gals to the monopoly OF public virtue
had not been fagrautly belied by the
mopstrous revenue frauds and Other
swindling operations which have char
acterized the history of their own reign
