"a year!" Mr.. Trett fairly bounded
in his chair. Had be himself been the

coughing together.
Mr.. Trett's eyes fairly glistened with
pleasure. The answer to bis last ques-
ton, which he had waited for with Gag.

Finding the sun,'s resol ution in-
flexible, but expressing the hope she
might yet be induced to alter It, Mr..
Trett did not prolong his visit.

"Go and ask yeur aunt's forgiveness, !"
suggested the bridegroom.
"She left this morning"
"Well, we can go where she it,"
"Alas! she will never forgive me"

WHO WANTS TO BUY.-A Detroit
man wants to sell patent pistol cane
or promising Newfoundland pup, he
don't care which. He went home the
other night and set in his cane, heavily
charged, behind the door, and started
in for romp with his three bright lit
tie ones. They got along well enough
until the pup spied the cane, and, 60
ing for it, started upon promiscuous
run around the chairs and table-legs
with it between his teeth. The doting
father remembered the effect of slight
pressure on the spring, and with rare
presence of mind succeeded in throw
ing the children down the cellar stairs
and placing himself on top of the side
board before the thing went off. The
ball only broke hundred-dollar mirror,
and the pup only got few scratches
in jumping through aplate-glass win
dow. The doctor says the children
will recover. No insurance.

MOUNT HECLA. Iceland is more

MOUNT HEcLA Iceland is more
interesting physically than historically,
for its geysers are never-failing mar
vel, and its volcanoes are among the
most celebrated in the world. The
famous eruption of Mt. Hecla, in l766,
commenced by the appearance of a
column of black sand slowly rising, and
accompanied by subterranean thunders-
Then coronet of fame played around
the crater, and masses of rock were
thrown out. One stone six feet in cir
conference was flung twenty miles.
For a circuit of one hundred and fifty
miles the earth was covered with sand
four inches deep, and white paper could
not be distinguished from black. Fish
erman could not put to sea for the dark
ness, and the people of the Orkney
Islands were terrified by what they
thought showers of black snow. The
lava ran five miles, and a few days
later a vast column of water broke
through the pillar of cinders and rose
to height of several hundred feet.
But, violent as this eruption was, it
was far exceeded by that of Skapta
Jokul, 1888. From this volcano tor
rent of lava issued, which filled the
basin of great lake, and then divided
into two streams, one fifty miles long
and from twelve to fifteen wide in the
broadest parts, the other forty miles
miles long, and were confined between
hills from five to six hundred feet deep.
A thick cloud of cinders hung over the
island for a year. According to the
best estimates, nine thousand persons
and two hundred thousand cattle per-
ished during this eruption. The ground
around the geysers is honeycombed with
holes. Not a blade of grass grows
upon the hot, infamed surface of red
clay. The Great Geyser has smooth,
silicious basin seventy two feet in di-
ameter and four feet deep, with hole
in the bottom like stationary wash
bowl. This is brimful of simmering
water, from which rises high column
of vapor. The geyser is often inactive,
and the traveller may have to wait many
days before seeing more than this. An
eruption is announced by loud under
ground noises. The centre of the pool
becomes violently agitated. A dome of
water rises, bursts, and falls. Then a
sheaf of shining liquid columns, wreath
ed with vapor, springs into the air, by
a succession of bounds, finging its sill
very crest against the sky. How long
it last, depends upon the violence of
the eruption. The water gradually
loses its ascending force, falters, droops,
and falls, and is Immediately sucked
back into the subterranean chamber
whence it came. The eruption is over
the traveller mounts his shaggy pony,
and wends his way back over the
mountains to Reykjavik. - Arthur's

A SUMPTUoUs DINNER.-A few
evenings since there was given at Del
monico's, by an opulent gentleman of
New York city, dinner which for
originality of design, magnifcence of
accessories, and perfection of execution
has never been approached on this con-
tinent, and probably not been equaled,
in modern times, in the other hem
isphere. The table was some sixty feet
long by about twenty feet broad. In
the center was an oblong basin some
sixteen feet long, eight feet wide, and
two feet deep, filled with water, the
base banked with flowers. Rising above
and covering this at height of twelve
feet was delicate wire screen supported
BY posts garlanded with flowers, the
posts crowned by bird-cages filed with
songsters. On this fairy little lake
swamtwo splendid swans, loaned for the
occasion by the Brooklyn Park Com
missioners, and the mammoth birds
glided as quietly and gracefully over
the miniature ocean as if in their wider
and more accustomed sphere at home
At each end of this fairy expanse were
two golden fountains five feet high,
whence cherubic figures rained from
their heads tiny jets of spray. Flank
ing these on either side were stately
golden candelabra radiant with lights,
and at frequent intervals along the table
were placed many lighted candelabra of
silver. The extreme ends of the table
were banked with huge mounds of flow
ers, the rarest and costliest, each fra
grant hillock measuring ten feet long,
five feet wide, and three feet high. The
margin of the table, in front of the seats
and plates of the guests, was composed
of border of choice flowers, coming to
semicircle in front ofeach plate. Lack
ofspace precludes further detail of num-
berless other dainty bits of ornamental
ton that impaired brilliancy to the
general effect. Add to this fairy crea-
ton procession of viands the variety
of which was extraordinary, the cookery
perfection, wines of rare vintage, music
which We'd with that at the opera, and
our readers can form a glimmering idea
of what this banquet was for four and
seventy people-a banquet which, asre-
CARDS regal splendor, artistic effects, and
culinary execution, may be placed
among the latest triumphs of gastrono-
mic art. Cost S12,O00)

ORIGINALITY.-One does feel some
times, when one writes, that there is
nothing left in the world to be original
about; that pretty much everything has
been said, sung, described. The cyclical
theory is dreadful nightmare. And
to think of Livingstone's finding in the
very heart of Africa just the same sort
of bird-trap that civilized American
boys catch chippies with! Given,
human being-and every thing is in
Guided. You get your original idea
down to its simplest statement, and
there is nothing left but some proverb,
familiar as household words. One
doesn't know whether to be fattered or
annoyed but, if one does strike off
something something that one
may be morally, if not statistically, GER
tain cannot be found in the ancients -
he is sure to read it next day in the
Presidents inaugural or George Eliot's
latest novel. These columns of choice
extracts from the best writers, new and
old which are getting to be more and
more in vogue and journalism are
more harassing than any special class
of reading to a person who imagines
that he has a patent on any one idea,
or group of ideas. But doubtless one
should congratulate ones self that the
seed of truth is sure to struggle to the
light through every soil; that deep
drainage does not necessarily help, nor
do superphosphates hinder it. This is
the view l myself am inclined to take.
If Shakespeare happens to say the same
thing that l do, let me not be ignobly
jealous. Rather let the race receive my
congratulations. - Scribner's for Nay.
