Gregory gave notice that he should question the
government az to the erect the postponement Of
arbitration viii have on the settlement OF the san
Juan boundary and the fishery questions. and on
the Canadian loan.
Mr. Gladstone replied to an lnterrogatory nom
Mr.. Horsman that the papers concerning recent
negotiations with the United States would include
everything except Sir STAFFORD Northcote,s de-
caration to the responsibility OF the British Com
missioners.
Mr. Horsman wanted to know whether the
records OF the High Joint Commissioners would
contain any minutes with regard to the Indirect
claims, or show whether the question OF these
claims was raised at all; also whether they would
prove that the withdrawal OF the said claims only
rested on an understanding between the Com
missioners.
Mr.. Gladstone required notice of the question
before giving 1t a full answer but he would state
that no communication had passed between the
Commissions and Her Maiesty's government show
ing that the exclusion of the indirect claims rested
on an understanding.
Mr.. Corrance asked If her Maiestys government
intended to proceed with arbitration on matters
which had no relation with the Alabama claims,
the Fenian raids, the fisheries, or Canadian matters
For the purpose OF obtaining a hearing Mr.. Cor
rance made q motion to adjourn. He criticised
the government charging it with neglecting the
Canadas and exacting their assent to the Treaty OF
Washington under duress.
Mr.. Gladstone protested against the assertion
He claimed that his answers were misunderstood
He had said that the postponement OF the Board
OF Arbitration would not AFFECT the treaty but the
defeat OF one OF its provisions might as when one
of the wheels of carriage failed all failed.
In reply to viscOunt Bury's inquiry OF last night
Mr.. Gladstone promised that all the papers would
be laid before the House tonight.

The Origin of an Old PrOverb

About the year 1000 B. c., there
lived in the country of Phrygia,
III Asia Minor, peasant by the name
of GOrdius, who, while plOwing in
his field one day, noticed an eagle
alight upon his yoke of oxen, where
it remained all the day. GOrdius be-
came very much alarmed at this.
Others believed it to be a prodigy,
and prevailed upon GOrdius to con
suit the SOOthsayers of Telmessus, a
city in Lydia, which country in those
days was famous for the science Of
augury. As he came into the city he
was met by very beautiful young
woman. He related to her the cause
of his coming to Lydia, upon which
she assured him that the prodigy in
dicated his elevation to a throne. AS
an evidence Of her faith in her in
depreciation of this extraordinary
omen, she offered to become his wife
Although GOrdius had doubts as tC
the Verification of the prediction, he
very willingly embraced this OppOr-
tunity, and they became man and
wife.
Not long after this occurrence a Sc
ditiOn broke out among his country
men, who were at the time without 9
ruler. They finally appealed to the
Oracles for means tostOp this anarchy
The Oracles advised them to choose
king. They were to note the first
man who passed the temple of Jupiter
driving an OX-cart. This person, the
Oracles assured them, was destined tC
become their ruler. Accordingly, al
rushed to the temple. GOrdius shortly
after passed, driving his OX-cart. The
neeaV,, l,laCrA hailnH him thniP SOW
ereign, and he thus became King o
Phyrgia.
As absurd as this may appear at &;
glance, it has many parallels in his
tory. The popular caprice has fre
quently conferred honor and power
upon persons of obscure birth, from
| motive no more rational than tht
one indicated above. During a Sc
ditiOn in Florence, in the middle
ages, a wOol-comber was made chic
magistrate of the republic, simpl!
because he picked up a national fial
and waved it over the heads of tn
multitude.

Children's Arms.

A distinguished Paris ply ysician

Need I say, when these currents of

Artemus Ward.

Mark Twain lectured in Chicago on
A. Ward, and told the following anec-
dote:
As Artemus was once travelling in the
cars, dreading to be bored and feeling
miserable, man approached him, sat
down, and said
''Did you hear that last thing on
Horace Greeley"
Greeley? Greeley?" said Artemus,
''Horace Greeley? Who IS hep"
The man was quiet about five min
utes. Pretty soon he said
George Francis Train IS kicking uI
a good deal of a row over in England.
Do you think they viii put him in q
ba stile?"
Grain? Train? George Francis

This ignorance kept the man quiet
for fifteen minutes, when he said
''What do you think about General
Grants chances for the presidency
Do you think they viii run him?"
"Grant? Grant? Hang it, man, >
said Artemus, "you appear to know
more strangers than any man L ever
saw.D
The man was furious. He walked
up the car, but at last came back and
said
''You oonfounded ignoramus, did
you ever hear Of Adam?'
Artemus looked up and said
''What wa his other name?"

The VagabOnd Sage.

An old man of very ancient ply
siognomy, answering to the name of
Jacob WiImot, was brought to the
Police Court. His clothes looked as
though they might have been bought
secondhand in his youthful prime,
for they had suffered more from rubs
of the world than the proprietor him
self.
"What business ?"
'sNone; l am a traveller"
"a vagabOnd, perhaps?"
"You are not far wrong. Travel
ers and vagabOnds are about the same
thing. The difference is that the
latter travels without money and the
former without braius."
''Where have you travelled"
"Au over the continent"
''FOr what purpose"

"What have you observed?"
"a little to commend, much to CEN

''TIumph! what do you commend?''
"a handsome woman who viii

who will preach short sermons, a
good writer that will not write too
much, and a fool that has sense
enough to hold his tongue"

An Artificial WhiFIWind.

The fact that whirlwiuds are caused
by upward currents of heated air, was
recently demonstrated in the town of
Queensburg, n. Y. a farmer having
occasion to burn a yellow-pine fallow
Of some twenty acres, fearing that the
fire might spread into the adjacent
timber, ignited the fallOw in several
places on the edge, after taking the
prscautiOn of cleaning off the brush
from a strip surrounding it. The
flames rushing towards the centre
from every direction, the air and
smoke soon assumed a rotary motion,
which increased in intensity. This
whirlwind (fOT such it was}, after be-
coming fairly formed, moved with
wonderful velocity on its axis, tearing
up small trees by the roots and lifting
them into the air, stripping the branch
es from some that adhered too firmly
to the ground, and fairly wringing the
bark from others. 1t was accompa-
MED by a noise resembling thunder,
and lasting from five to ten minutes,
but did not pass the bounds of the fall
low, although it swayed back and
forth across the field of fire several
times.

CONSTANCE.

Who IS the honest man?
He that doth still and strongly good pursue,
10 God, his neighbOr, and himself most true;
Whom neither force nor fawning can
Unpinne, or wrench from giving all their due.
Whose hOnestie is not
So loose or easie, that rufiiing winde
Who rides his sure and even JrOt,
While the world now rides by, now lags behinde
Who, when great trials come
Nor seeks, nor shUnneS them; but doth calmly
stay
Till he the thing and the example weigh;
All being brought into a sUmme
w hat place or person calls for, he doth pay.
Whom none can work wooe,
70 use IN any thing q trick or Sleight;
For above all things he abhOrres deceit;
His words andwOrlls and fashion too
All OF . piece and all are cleare and straight,
Who never melts or thaws
At close tentatiOns: when the day is done,
His gOOdnesSe sets not, but in dark can ruuue;
The sunue 10 others writeth laws,
And Is their yertue; Nertue Is his Suune.
Who, when he is to treat
With sick folks, women, those whom passions
sway,
Allows for that and keeps his constant way:
Whom others faults do not defeat;
But though men fail him, yet his part doth play.
Whom nothing can procure,
When the wide world ruuues bias, from his will
TO Wrthe his limbes, and share, not mend the i'll
This is the Markham, safe and sure,
Who still is right, and prayes to be so STILL

The Enemies of the Rose.

One of the worst enemies is the
Apis rOsN, which sometimes covers
ali the young branches and exhausts
the sap from the tender leaves and
shoots. The female apis produces her
young throughout the entire year, and
is particularly active on plants which
are kept in warm rooms. These are
most effectually destroyed by brush
ing them with a soft brush into basin
filled with tobacco juice. They may
also be killed by fumigating with to-
baccO smoke or the vapor Of burning
sOlanum and tomato leaves but it is
advisable TO sprinkle the plants with
water, so that the atmosphere may
not become too dry from the effect of
the fumigatiOu. Another very trouble
some insect is the red spider (acarius
tetarius) which is generally found on
the under side of the leaf. It sucks
the sap from the leaves, which drop
OFF, and the plant appears in . sickty
condition. This pest may be destroy
ed by sprinkling the plants, and par
ticularly the under side of the leaves,
with SCOT dissolved in water; this rem
edy is at the same time good fertilI-

Nor did she move when winter trOd the grass

But when the spring-time ruled the land again
Mysterious yearnings in my spirit woke
New energies endowed her heart and brain.
And she es5ayed to break her sorrows yoke
And said TO il, Thy rule Is my disgrace

Then rose the grief that long had ruled nv soul

But God had made my spirits vision whole
