Commodore scuddel's Dog.


Commodore Scudder, Of 'tLc United States
Navy, had a double-nosel pointer dog Of which
he bad Dragged good deal, and for which lie
would have refused a larger sum than was ever
offered for dog since the creation Of the world.
But he is dead uow-not Commodore Scadder
but the dog. Like the famous hound, Gelert,
he died a martyr to bis high sense Of honor
The Commodore told tue story.
q went out hunting pariridscs one day, he
said, "and took the dog along We hadn't
much lack a. FIRST, but after a while Buster
that was the dogs name-stood aud pointed at
a coyey of the finest birds ever saw in all'my
born days. They were squa,tiug down in tho
low grass dozen yards off,'ia plain sight, aud
| determined to fire at them as they lay. /
lifted my gun, took deliberate aim, aud would
have killed dozen at least; but before could
pull the trigger courier dashed up with a
dispatch which lie said required immediate at
teution.
q reserved my .5re and rcad. the dispatch.
It was an order from the navy department to
proceed, without momeuts delay, to Phila-
delplia to take command Of squadron which
was about to sail to the Mediterranean Twas
so much excited, you understand, that I.laid
down my gun right ou the spot, and went of,
leaving Buster there pointing at those birds
like they were north stars aud lie was a mar
iner's compass, so to speak. forgot all about
him but he was faithful dog, Buster was
and, like CasaJianca, he wouldn't have left
even a Burning ship without my orders.
well, | went to Tie Mediterranean, and
cruised around for about three years, having
frst-rate time When | returned, at the end
Of the cruise it occurred to me, as stepped
ashore in Philadelphia, to go aud see how
things were at the place where went gunnirg.
John and went-and the frs: thing I came
across was my gun, lying there with the bar
rel covered with rust aud broken clean of the
rotten stock. But what was my surprise upon
going few PAGES further, TO liud the skeleton
Of that heroic, double nosed pointer, standing
up Just where l had LEFT the dog three years
before lie had never budged an inch Mr.
Quill, not solitary inch, that douLle-nosed
pointer hadn't; but he had stood there and
pointed at those birds until lie had perished in
his tracks Well sir, after shedding tear
over my departed friend, went few yards
ahead, and-there usre he skeletons IF those
yartidgesl l regard this as the most extra
ordinary circumstance that ever came under
my observation but if any man Prcsumes to
doubt my word, I'll shoot him on the spot
will, by George!
1t was queer, that story Of Scuddcrs about
his dog, but it would hardly be safe to say
what think about it.

Sleeping in Church.

Those who have the privilege Of Sitting un-
der " long-wiudcd preachers should at least en-
dcayor to acquire the habit Of sleeping with
their eyes open, if they find it quite impossible
to resist the temptation to suuber; for altho'
the sight Of one or two sleepcrs during lengthy
sermon may be borne with patience, yet the
sight Of whole congregation dropping on ~
is a severe trial to the temper Of even the mos;
decided Christian \ painful scene, accord
ing to the Edinburgh CoWaHt, occurred when
a d. D. and ex-molerator ola General Assem-
bly, Of Scottish kirk, while preaching to a
devoted flock, was shocked to see that not one
by one but in great numbers, his hearers were
gradually passing beyond reach Of bis persua-
sye tongue At last his Highland blood could
no longer bear it, and singing out the beadIe
who had for some time been giving uoddng
assent to all that was being said er cattedrd,
he determined to make an example Of him
lie accordingly paused in Lis discourse, sur
yeyod the effect, and then drawing a long
breath called ont in a voice Of thunder to an
elder of the church to waken up Scott. -
The obedieut elder at once fulfilled the mission,
aud with a success equal 70 that which attend

SURFACE MANUHNG.-But a few years ago
it was considered very poor economy to manure
on the surface, as it was then thought best to
turn all manure under Now the practice Of
surface maucriug is gradually spreading and is
found to have many advantages. The loss
which formally deferred many from the prac-
tice proves to have been imaginary aud not at
all equal to that resulting from allowing the
manure to lay in the yard all summer exposed
to rain and sun. This is one Of the many
changes which have taken place Within twenty
years.

Will smile upon another sea.

Which traces like scuptor's hand,

Shall fail e'er to obliterate;
So perfect, that to move one line
The heart and image both must break.

CATCHING A WIFE.--The most curious cere-
mony known TO the Esquimaux, says DR.. Hays
in his lecture, is, perhaps, that of marriage.
1t is done thus: When boy kills polar
bear, it is considered sufficient proof of his
ability to maintain a family he is Therefore
told to go and catch wife. watching his OPP
portunity at night time he pounces upon vic
tim and attemps to carry her off she, howev.
er, struggles and shrieks until she has collect.
ed around her group Of sympathisers. She
then turns upon her captor, and bites and
scratches him until he is compelled to release
her; then she darts into the crowd and at.
tempts to escape he follows, but not unmo.
Tested. All the old women take scourges oil
dried seal skin and fagelate him numerically
as he passes, making at the same time every ef-
fort to arrest him in his course IT. despite these
little impediments to married bliss, he should
catch his victim, the biting and scratching
scene is renewed, and in all probability he is
compelled again to release her, and the chase,
with IT'S attendant discomfort, is resumed.
Should he overcome all obstacles, the third
capture usually proves effectnal, and the
victim, ceasing her struggles, is led away
among the acclamations and rejoicings Of the
assembled multitude.
