The deathless joy Of home. r

And this from sunny isles,
And this one crowned with SORROW haste!

Our youths unfolding powers,
The daring impulse that surcharged,
With life, eur pilgrim hours.
But happier yet the sacred bond
That doth our presence claim,
That conjures memories full and fond
With one ancestral name.
Freedom and love arc welded both

Looking Out for Small
POx.

Richfeld sulphur springs
give out a strong odor of sui
phureted hydrogen, which is
like the smell Of bad eggs
Some years ago traveller on
horseback was approaching the
spring, and observing a white
flag which was raised on a pole
by the laborers employed, in
quired of a man standing in
the door of a public house a
half a mile from the spring, if
that was the sign Of smallpox.
The man addressed being some
thing of a wag said, perhaps
it is. "Well." said the travel
er, "is there no way by which |
can go round and give small
pox a wide berth?' Said the
man: "You will have to go
some eight miles out of the way.
But l can tell you how you can
pass the flag, smallpox and all,
in perfect safety; just ride on
within fifty rods of the flag, and
then hold your breath till you
get fifty rods beyond the spring,
and you will be perfectly safe. "
The traveller did as directed
When he supposedhe had dreach-
ed within fiftyrods Of the spring,
he seized his nose with one hand
and put the goad on with the
other. His horse made rapid
bounds, and he, a quixoic fig
ure, attracted the gaze Of the
laborers, who stood astonished.
But when just opposite the
spring he could no longer hold
his breath. He loosened the
hold of his nose and took a
sniff of the sulphureted hydro
gen gas. "Oh Godr' he
shrieked, "T've catched it!'-
He seized his nose again and
passed out of sight. Whether
! he died of smallpox or what
became of him was never
known.

The court below refused to sus-
tain the objection. The Supreme

A Moral Tale-How Two
Honest Men Prospered.

There are two Johns in the
Fourth Ward. The last name
of one begins with a @ and the
surname of the other begins
with a G. They are ehums.
They are very sharp men, very;
but as Marc Anthony said in a
peculiar way, they are both
'honorable men," They were
long, ago in a very unusual
condition, known as shard up,
but by industry ami integrity
they have achieved a little com
potency. Thus:
c. met G. one day in a bar
room, theirusual resort. 1t was
temperance bar, of course
Said c.: 90
"Old boy, we're dreadful hard
up, but / know how to make a
rise, sure thing 3 ssA- 8 z
8 Nor said G,;;- ;;-':honor bright ?
I haven't anything more to take
to my uncle, except a paper coll
lar, and my landlords dunning
me. But, really, now?"
"4es, repliedC, sthis is the
plan: I've found a man fool e.
nough tolend me $100; the great
race between Longfellow and
and Helmbold comes off at
Saratoga next week. Well go.
There'll be the heaviest kind of
odds bet on Longfellow of
course. I'll back Helmbold
and you'll be stake, holder.
After the first bet you give me
the stakes and Ill bet the whole
amount: make you holder a.
gain, stake them again, bet a.
gain, and SO on. Then we will
suddenly leave and divide the
whole pile. Dye see?"
"Well, you are genius,
Johnny; we'll try it,
On the day of the great con-
test they were on the ground.
The plan worked. Soon G., as
stake holder had $1,000 in his
possession-they then thought
it convenient to leave before
the race came off. They went.
During the race they were COM
ing to New York at the rate of
thirty miles an hour, planning
to rusticate until the affair blew
over. When they came outof
the Hudson River Railroad de-
pot the first news they heard
was that Hclmbold had won!-
They were not astonished, per-
least not moro so than
everybody else. They had
fairly won their money! They |
were hohest men, and need not |
run away. They didn't. Vir-
tue is its own reward. Honesty ,
is the best policy.-M Y. Sta.-
