A NOVEL GUN CARRIAGE. There is
comcal story connected with the Ordnance
Select Committee. 1t was at one time
proposed to fire mountain-guns off the
backs of mules that carried them 1t was
urged that this would obviate the neces-
sity of dismounting the gun from the
mules back and mounting it on its car
riage; a mountain battery could thus come
into action in far less time. This propos-
al was warmly taken up by the commit
tee, who forthwith proceeded to test its
feasibility. A mule or donkey was pro-
cured, and a small gun strapped firmly to
cradle resting on the pack-saddle, so that
the weapon pointed over the donkey's tail.
The animal was then led into the marshes
at Woolwich, accompanied by the COM
mittee and several ''big-wigs," who were
attracted by such a novel experiment.
On arriving at the butt, the gun was load
ed, the donkey turned with his tail towards
the earthern mound, and the usual prepa-
rations made for firing by means of Ian
yard and friction tube. Hereupon one of
the committee remarked that this mo de of
firing might derange the aim by the Jerk
on pulling the lanyard. A discussion fol-
lowed, and it was finally arranged to fire
the gun by the piece of slow match tied to
the vent This was done, and the match
duly ignited. Hitherto the donkey had
taken rather a sleepy interest IN the pro.
ceedings; but the fixing OF the match on
on his back caused him first to prick up
his ears, then to lay them back, and finally
to begin to turn round The committee
were thunder struck, and "skedaddled"
in all directions the secretary threw HIM
self flat on his face; there was an agoniz-
ing moment of suspense: then bang the
shot went ricochetting away in one direc-
ton, while the wretched donkey turned a
complete summersault.

Belfast Police Court.
Reported for the Journal,

April LIST. Two lads of Il and 10, belonging
in Unity, were brought before the Court
charged with stealing the tools of workmen on
the Belfast and Moosehead Lake Railroad.
One was acquitted, and the other found guilty;
but in consideration of the youth of the latter,
and other mitigating circumstances, he was
not committed to Jail, but let off on his good
pehaVior. The two older boys concerned, and
VINO were the most criminal, evaded the officer.
A lot of young bloods of our city, who ought
10 nave more respect for themselves, went on a
very serious "tare" one night last week, after
getting full of various fluids. Their first ex-
plot was to whip Boston runner for presum-
ing to be abroad at an unreasonable bour.
Then house, the inmates of which are reunited
to be no more chaste than ice, was stormed and
taken possession of, to the damage of the goods
and chattes therein - besides other like ex.
ploits. For all of which the bloods aforesaid
were sentenced by the Court to the payment of
fines and costs. Likewise they all had bad
headaches the NEXT morning.

Sensible Advice.

Always treat a lady with politeness. Such
is due to her sex. No matter though it
may cost you an act of hypocrisy, no mat
ter, though, for a time you may seem to be
gentleman, and therefore ill at ease, don't
fail to perform the act Of grace. Duty is
duty; and the iron man has said success is
duty, whether duty is success or not. To a
lady, use kind words. They are easier,
cheaper, ought to mean more that others.
You have or once had, mother; you may
or may not have, or have had, a sister. 1t
is one and the same. The sex merits polite
ness. 1t is better for it. The giver is bet
ter, even under the circumstances just
named. 1t is an investment that always
pays.
1t is said of a late physician that he was
waited upon one day by neighbor to
come and see child sick with the Group.
ooh certainly" replied the doctor, 'sif
there is anything pride myself on in my
profession, it is my treatment OF that dis
ease. AS the doctor stepped out mo-
ment to make ready, his waiting visitor
was somewhat taken aback to hear him
say to his wife, Sarah, what do you do
fer the croup?"
