The bride was little paler than usual
when, with solemn face, the New York
lawyer broke the big red seal Visions OF
John Garland holding drunken revels in
her aunt's house fitted across her mind,
and then she looked into Charles face, and
over her own crept an expression Of perfect
content.
The will was opened, and found to con-
tain only letter directed to Jessie, and a
short, legally worded formula, making her
self and her chosen husband joint inherit
ors of her aunt's fortune. Truly, the bride
opened the letter from the dead.
With loving words Aunt Jessie blessed
her, and wished her happiness.
"I donot," she wrote "approve Of the
money power in family being entirely in
the hands of woman, therefore, you will
find, dear Jessie, that half of my fortune
only is yours, the remaining half to 60 to
the husband who has proved that he loved
you for your own sweet self, and not for
your fortune"
During the wedding tour of the young
couple, Mrs. Markham, at their earnest So
licitation, took an affectionate farewell Of
her pupils, and removed her household
treasures to the New York mansion, to
which, in due time, came Charlie and Jes-
sic to brighten the long silent rooms with
their happiness, and establish that loving
circle that makes home of anv house how
ever grand, or however humble.

A Painter In Trouble.

Old Mr.. Watson, ON Nelson street, has
got nice little bill to pay. He sent man
down town for pot of paint and ladder.
Then he tied the paint pot to the end of
the ladder and put the ladder on his
shoulder, and the man admired it very
much. He started for home this way, and
didn't find any trouble in getting along the
first block, because the people had an i'm
preston that long ladder with pot of
yellow paint dangling on the end of it
wasn't exactly the thing to trihe with so
they balanced along on the curb-stone, or
rubbed against the buildings. Pretty soon
the man saw somebody in a store he knew,
and turned around to speak to him, and
drove one end of the ladder into millinery
case and knocked the crown out of an eigh-
alright and knocked down two sewing
machine agents with the other end Then
he started to turn around, and an old gen.
tleman who was desperately endeavoring
and shouted "Hi there ~ But it was too
late. The pot struck against an awning
post, tipped to one side and the entire con-
| tents went over the aged couple. This so
startled the man that he wheeled complete
ly around, smashing in an entire store front,
| frightening milk mans team, and knock
| ing over some thirteen persons who were
actively dodging about to get out of the
way. Then he dropped the ladder and fed
into the country, shouting " murder and
Nltire'' at every jump.

New Zealand Birds.

It appears that the mona name given
by New Zealanders to the large wingless
birds whose homes are now and then
found in the swamps, forest, and other
places-is not an extinct species, as has
generally been supposed. A very large
bird-far larger than the emu-has been
long reputed to exist in the back portions
Of run in the Waiu district. It's exis-
tence has now been verified. On a recent
occasion shepard started the creature
from q maunlSa scrub with sheep dog.
II ran until II was fairly on the brow of a
terrace above the dog, and some thirty or
for yards of, when il turned at bay. The
bird is described as bending its long neck
up and down, exactly like the black swan
when disturbed, as considerably taller
than any emu ever seen in Australia, and
as standing very much more erect ON its
legs. The color of its feathers is silyery
grey, with greenish sneaks through it. II
this story is true, it destroys the notion
which has hitherto prevailed, that no large
mons have been seen alive since about
1850.

A BOisterOus Honey Moon.

GONE weeks since a sturdy young farm
~ er from the neighborhood of H,
started for the State Capitol to be united
in the bonds of holy wedlock. The twain
were accompanied by sympathising sister,
who wore upon her immaculated bosom
the oscar and yellow leaf of forty au-
tumns, but whose intense prudery had
compelled her to shun the paternal roof
and take up her abode as domestic in
neighboring village. The sturdy agricola
and his dulcinea were duly married and
with their sisterly attendent repaired to
certain hotel to pass the night. The peo-
pie at the hostelry where this happy bridal
party stopped, wondered at the singular
manner in which they conducted them
selves. The husband would take his newly
made sister-in-law into retired corner
of the sitting-room, and with more than
histrionic earnestness Of gesticulation az
que with her for several minutes success
sively. Under this the autumnal maiden
would excitedly demonstrate, and using a
certain pedal movement, vulgarly yclept
"putting the foot down." exclaiming with
all the emphasis of a perturbated heroine,
81 shall" Then the husband would take
his blushing bride into another corner, but
no sooner had they "met and kissed"
than the halcyon moments would be inter-
rupted by the interposition of the excited
maiden of forty autumns.
About 10 o'clock the people of the hotel
began to ascertain what was the real
issue in the case. There was "rumpus"
in the bridal chamber. Feminine shrieks
and masculine oaths intermingling without
number, startled the hotel people, and they
rushed to the apartment in which lay the
epithalamium.
The maiden of forty summers was press
ing rearward against the door with all the
force Of a battering-ram, while the BRIDE
groom, now in dishabille, was preventing
her entrance with all his might.
Occasionally she would so far effect an
entrance as to rev cal within, the burly form
Of her brother-in-law in his gentleman
"Greek Slave' apparel.
1t appears the maiden of forty autumns
was determined to occupy the same bed as
the newly married pair it also appeared
that her sister favored the arrangement,
and that her lord and master had acqui-
esed in it before the wedding, but now in
dignantly repudiated the contract.
"Won't you leave, now, Mollie ?" says
the bridegroom, soto voice.
ii "Nor' says the irate sister-in-law, "I'n
be darned If viii p'
81 Don't come down peg !" echoes the
angel within the bridal chamber.
~" Hold up, now, Jennie" says the pc
wildered young rustic to his amiable young
spouse "for Gods sake don't go kicking
up in this way, now, beg of you, now
/ don't.
"I'll kick as much as want to, the
darling acridly replied.
"Well, - shouted the now despairing and
desperate man, putting on his wedding
raiment and bodily advancing into the
crowd, "jest you two critters put on your
whole garments make boe line for home,

A PARODY.

The girls are all feeting s1iow,
For mans illusion given,
Their smiles of Joy, their tears of woe,
Deceitful shine, deceitful flow,
There is not one true In seven.
And false the flash of beauties eye,
As fading hues Of even,
And love, and laughter all lie,
And hopes awakened but to die.
There's not one true in seven.
Poor mushrooms ofa sunny day,
Yet bloom and be forgiven,
For life's at best dream-away
Dull, drowsy, thoughtful join the ga,
And romp with all the seven.

How Bill Of Fare Puzzled an Indian.
While at dinner, Whitewash-in-his-E
called to him waiter, who said "ugh p
as delicate compliment, and handed him
bill of fare. The chieftain pointed to the
first item, and said "ugh % The waiter
said "ugh ~ and returned a cup of coffee.
Now, even though cup of coffee is a good
thing, it is hardly meal for man, An
other interchange of "ughs y resulted in
a cup of black tea, and again cup of
mixed tea. In despair, the brave uttered
an angry "ugh9" that made the waiter
turn pale, and pointed to the last item oh
the bill, evidently anxious to get as far
away from the teas as possible. The
waiter faltered "ughp' and hurried back
with tumbler of iced tea. The others,
warned by the example and fate of their
comrade, attacked the bill of fare insme-
dias rest" One struck "pay eat" under
the head "broiled," and had an abundant,
if not varied, meal of mutton chops, veal
outlets, broied chicken, pork chops, sur
loin steak, porter-house steak, Boston
steak, &c. Combining their information,
the remaining members of the party wan
dered over the bill of fare, taking every di-
vision by starts, and none of them long.
The result was eminently satisfactory to-
the aboriginal stomach, which is capacious,
and has no prejudices as to the succession
and relative proportions of soup, fish, game
entrees, boiled, roast, game and dessert.
