been ma,te which will be felt, and a death which
will be niourned by quite a number who cherish

HOW TO TURN OUT.


The Duke of Wellington always slept on
an iron camp bedstead eighteen inches wide.
s'When man wants to turn over" he said,
"it is time for him to turn out" The Empe
ror Nicholas did the same. Mr. Over says
The principal is well enough; bat think
the detail is wrong. Sleep itself is far too i'm
important to be made uncomfortable. My
old friend Rosster fixed his aiarum to that,
at the fUreordained moment, the bed clothes
were dragged from the bed, and Rossiter lay
shiveling. I have myself somewhere the
drawings and specifications Tor a patent
(Which never applied fOr), which arranges q
set OF cams and wheel-wOrk under the bed
stead, which, at the mumeLt appointed, lift
the pillow end six feet, and deliver the sleep
er on his feet on the now horizontal foct
board. He is not apt to sleep long alter
that. Rosster found another contrivance
which worked better. The alarm clock
struck q match, which lighted the lamp
which boiled the water for ROSTERS shaving
If Rossiter staid in bed too long, the watel
boiled over upon his razor, and clean shirt
and the prayer book his mother gave him,
Coleridge's autograph, and his open pocket.
book, aud all the other precious things he
could put In basin underneath when BIT
went to bed +; so he had 20 get up before thai
moment came.-Old and NeU.

BIRDS AT PRAYER.

Rev. w. @. Prime In his Z Go a Fishing, re-
lates the following curious custom of birds !:
"'A---'s birds yonder have. beyond
question, means of exchanging IDEAS You
would think so il. you saw them at prayer. J
sWh.at !? Yes ;at prayer. 1t isn't anything
less. There are birds or every country under
the whole heavens, and With voices as vari.
Gus as the lsngua9es of men. and you hear
what wild concert of del ght theV keep up
AL day long. But every day this entire
group of birds assemble in silence, and if it
isn't prayer meeting, don't dnow what it
is. There is no forewarnlng thai we can oe-
ect. While they are chatterlng. singing,
playing here, there, and everywhere, sud.
denly one ofthem. sometimes one, and some-
times another. utters peculiar call, totally
distinct from his ordinary note Whatever
bird It is, the call Is much the same. and in
stantly every bird stops his play and his noise
They gather in rows on the perches, shorten
their necks SO as almost 20 sink their heads
into their feathers, and make no motion oil
