The First Fuchsia.

A pleasant story is told in an En-
glish horticultural journal of the way the
Fuchsia gained its notoriety and popularity
among fower-lovers, and introduction to the
horticultural world:
"Old Mr.. Lee, nurserynian and gardener
near London, we'll known fifty or sixty years
ago, was one day showing his variegated
treasures to friend, who suddenly turned
to him and declared: well, You have not
in your collection prettief flower than

pray what was this phenix like? why,
the plant was elegant, and the flowers hung
in rows like tassels from the pendant branch

centre fold of deep purple, and'so forth,
Particular directions being demanded and
given, Mr.. Lee posted off to the place where
he at once perceived that the plant was new

ARE You READY TO DYE?-Traveling in
his buggy alone, not long ago, in going to
one Of his appointments, one of our good
brethren in the Presbytery of Memphis oser-
took q tramp with his carpet bag in his hand.
The roads were muddy, and he was just at
the time about entering miry bottom.
Why the politeness for which he is noted,
he asked the pedestrian Gan entire strangely
if he wonld not take seat in the buggy un-
til. at least, they had crossed the mud and
mire. The invitation vas readily accepted,
and the conversation for time was Tree aud
easy, about things ordinary and general.
Presently, however, the good brother with a
view to make the conversation profitable,
asked the stranger if he was ready to- dle'
Not knowing the character Of the person
who had invited him to a seat with him, and
apprehending his meaning and suspecting
foul play, he waited not to reply, but sprang
from the buggy Immediately, and ran for life
through slush an water The clerical broth
er wishing to assure the stranger that he
meant no harm, called to him at the top OF
his voice to stop. But this only fastened
his speed, and like q sacred hare, he ran un-
til beyond hearing and sight. In his hasty
flight he left his carpet-sack, which our
brother now has in his possession, being the
richer for his faithfulness BY the addition OF
a coarse shirt, pair Of threadbare trousers,

THE WRONG WAY TO PICK UP SNAP
PING TURTLE.--A man named Gilsey, who
by strict economy aud severe industry, has
succeeded in getting his family little place
free from encumbrance, was fishing in Still
river, near the Beaver brook mills, on Sun.
day afternoon. After sitting on the bank
for couple of hours without catching any
thing, he was .grati6ed to see on stone in
the water swapping turtle summing himself
The butt end Of the turtle was toward him,
and he thought his would capture it, but
while he was looking for a place TO step the
turtle gravely turned around without his
knowledge, and when he got in reaching dis
tance. and bent down to take hold Of what
nature designed should be taken hold Of
while handling a swapping turtle, that So
ciable animal just reached out and took Of
Mr. Gilseys hand with grasp that left no
doubt of its sincerity. The shrieks of the
unfortunate man ar used some of the neigh
bors, but when they arrived it was too late
to be of any. benefit to him, or even.to them
selves, for they just caught a glimpse of a
bareheaded man tearing over the hill, swing
ing small carpet-bag on one hand, and
they at once concluded that was narrow
escape from highway robbery. However, it
was not carpet.bag he was swinging twas
that turtle, and it clung to him until he
reached the White street bridge, when it
let go; but the frightened man did not
slacken his gait until he got home. When
he reached the the house the ludicrousness
of the affair burst upon him, and when his
wife, looking at his pale face and bare head,
and dust begriped clothes, asked him what
was the matter, he said, Nothing was the
matter, only he was afraid he would be too
late for church," and appeared much relived
to find that he wasn't.-DanJury Ners.

A GAMBLING HoUsE.-Ladies are fer
bidden to step forth within the precincts Of
Mr.. John Morrissey's great and, elegant
gambling house. This veto was put upon
the ladies by the Young Mems Christian
Association, for the purpose of saving the
Indies and running the men; or, would ap-
pear most clearly in sensible minds, for the
purpose of running both, for how are women
to be saved if men 60 to destruction? And
much more certain is the fact that shutting
the women out from any place where men
congregate is the best means in the world to
abandon it to doubtful fate. q lady, how
ever, went into John Morrissey's house the
other day, and looked it over. She was ac-
companied by a highly agreeable and intel
ligent Southern gentleman, to whom she is
greatly indebted for minute explanation Of
the workings of this institution, its follies
and failings. The house is magnificent in
frescoing, carving. furniture, cut glass, car
pets and chandeliers, beyond anything that
can be seen in this country. The card ia

AN EXTRAORDINARY MURDER TRIAL.

AN EXTRAORDINARY MURDER TRIAL
A remarkable murder trial has recently take
place in the county OF Tyrone, Ireland. In
June, 1871, Mr.. Glass, the Cashier Of the
Northern Bank, at Newtownstewart, was
found murdered in the bank, and it was
subsequently ascertained that robbery had
been committed, nearly $4,000 having been
distracted. A sub-inspector of police named
Montgomery, who had been on terms OF init,
macy with the cashier, was arrested and
brought to trial on the charge Of being the
murderer. An officer of the Royal Irish
Constabulary occupies the same social posi-
ton in Ireland that commissioned officer
i'll the military service occupies in England,
and the preceding in the case Of Mont
eomery excited interest among all classes in
the community where they took place. The
first trial occurred last year, aud the feeling
against the prisoner was so strong IN hls own
district that all jurymcn living within hive
miles Of Newtownstewart were excluded
from the jury-box The second trial took
aboat fortnight ago, and occupied more
than ten days. Eighty witnesses were
examined, and the counsel Tor the defense
made speech ten hours in length They
jnry dcliberated for twelve hours without
being able to agree upon verdict when
they were discharged, and the case was as
signed for a third triad This has been th'
most protracted case ever on trial IN Ireland

Gentleman is not merely a person ac-
ouainted with certain forms and etiquette of
life, easy and sclfpossesscd i'll society, able
to speak and act and move in the world
without awkwardness, and free from habits
which are vulgar and in bad taste. a gen.
tleman IS something beyond this; that which
lies at the root of all his pleasing is the same
spirit which lies at the root of every Christian
virtue. 1t is the thoughtful desire of doing
in every instance to others as he would that
others should do unto him. He is constant
" thinking, not indeed how he may give
pleasure to others for the mere sense OF
pleasing, but how he can show respect to
others, how he may avoid hunting their feel
ing. When he is in society, he scTnpnlously
asscrtains the positions and relations of every
one with whom he comes in contact, that he
NAV give to each his due honor, his proper
position. He studies how he may avoid
touching in conversation upon any subject
which may needlessly hurt their feelings
how he may abstain from any illusions which
may call up disagreeable or offensive as
socation. A gentleman never alludes TO-
never appears conscious Of any persons de-
feet, bodily deformity Of talent, of reputation
in the person in whose society he is
placed. He never assumes any superiority to
himself-never rdicules, never sneers never
boasts, never makes display of his own pow
or. or rank, or advantages-such as is im-
piled in ridiculc or sarcasm, or abuse-as he
never indulges in habits, or tricks, or inclina-
nons which may be offensive to others.
