in railway carriage, en- route to Toulouse,
very agreeable and well-instructed person,
who said he was a professional man. He
parted with this con.pagnon de royage with
some regret, and with an exchange of cards;
the agreeable person adding, as he gave his,
sit would afford him great pleasure at any
time to be useful to him professionally" Po-
liteness forbade him looking at the card till he
had got out of sight, when he found it was
that of the public executioner of Paris.
There was no mistake. Underneath the
name was the statement of the professional
pursuit.

Enoch Arden's latest appearance is in Ohio
About 16 years ago young man there left
his wife to go away for couple of weeks on
some speculation he proposed engaging in.
Weeks, months and years passed without
any tidiugs from her absent spouse, and the
wife forgot the poignancy of her grief in a
union with a wealthy citizen of the place.
Not long since the lady received telegram
asking her to come to Newcastle, IA, and
see her former husband. She went, and
found him upon his death bed. He told her
of his resolve never to return to her until he
had amassed a fortune, of his struggles and
ultimate success, and of the bitter disappoint-
ment, when he did return, and found her
married to another Without making HIM
self known to anyone, he had quietly gone
elsewhere By his will he left all his prop
erty to his wife and children.

as being one of the most amusing he
ever noticed:
A gentleman in New Haven recently
erected on Chapel street. near the col
leges, large and beautiful residence,
and adorned the grounds with extraor-
dinary taste and expense. Among other
ornaments, not far from the street, he
placed large cast-iron statue of dog
who's acknowledgements and defiant
attitude made him "look as large as life
and twice as ugIy.' For weeks after
ward. the "little dogs and ALL" on
passing by the house never failed to
give the statue a complimentary bark
and growl, which however, never dis
turbed its equanimity. But one day.
a big Towser from the country was fol-
lowing his masters market wagon into
town, and happened to spy the hostile
form of the cast-iron foe. A perlimi-
nary growl and bow-wow produced no
effect. Surly and defiant, his enemy
continued to gaze at him. Canine
