A Cannon Ball the Eat.

An anonymous writer, after de-
scribing how, when boy, he stole q
cannon ball from the Navy Yard at
Charlestown, Mass, and with much
trepidation, and more headache, car
ried it away in that universal pocket
of youth-his hat-winds up with the
following reflections, which, though
philosophically trite, are in this man.
ner conveyed with much force and
| freshness
When reached home had moth
ing to do with my shot. L did not
dare to show it in the house, nor tell
where I got it; and after one or two
solitary rolls, / gave it away on the
same day to a Prince streeter.
But after all, that six-pounder roll
ed good deal of sense into my skull.
I think it was the last thing that /
ever stole (excepting a little matter
of heart now and them, and it gave
me notion of the folly Of coveting
more than you can enjoy, which has
made my whole life happier. 1t was
rather a severe mode of cateehiZing,
but ethics rubbed in with six-pound
shot are better than none at all.
But see men doing the same thing,
going into underground and dirty
vaults and gathering up wealth,
which will, when got, roll around
their heads like ball, and be not q
whit softer because it is gold, instead
of iron, though there is not a man in
Wall Street who Will believe that.

every humiliation to win a proud wo-
man who had been horn above him.
and when he got her he walked all
the rest of his life with cannon ball
in his hat.
l have seen young men enrich
themselves by pleasure in the same
way, sparing no pains, and scrupling
at no sacrifice of principle, for the
sake at last of carrying a burden
which no man can bear.
All the world are busy in striving
for things that give little pleasure and
bring much care. am accustomed,
in all walks among men, on noticing
their ways and folly, to think, "There
is man stealing cannon ball." or
There's man with a ball on his head,

A dog was accidentally present dur
ing divine service in a Scotch kirk,
where the worthy minister was in the
habit Of speaking very loud in the
sermon, and, in fact, when he got
warmed with his subject, of shouting
almost at the top of his voice. The
dog, who in the early part had been
very quiet, became quite excited, as is
not uncommon with some dogs when
hearing a noise; and from whining
and whining, as the speakers voice
rose loud and strong, at last began to
bark and howl. The minister, natu-
rally much annoyed at the interrup-
tion, called upon the beadie to put out
the dog; and he at once expressed his
readiness TO obey the order, but could
not resist the temptation tolook up to
the pulpit, and to say, very signifcan-
tly, SAY, ay, sir; but indeed it was
yourself began it,"

Nickel.

The demand for nickel, the metal
used with copper in the manufacture
OF one cent pieces, and in the three
and five cent pieces, has considerably
exceeded the supply, and the manu-
faeturers of the alloy known as Ger
man silver have petitioned the Parlia-
ment Of the German empire not to
still further increase the demand by
the introduction Of nickel money into
that country. The cost Of German
silver, which contains about ODethird
of its vOlumn in nickel, has gone up
nearly So per 220 pounds within q
single month. The aggregate annual
product OF nickel Exclusive Of the
American product) does not exceed
800 tons, Of which English industries
alone use one-half It is used In the
token coinage Of this country. Bel
gium and Switzerland, and the manu-
zacturers says that If Germany should
issue q similar coinage the supply
would not be sufficient To enable
manufacturers to use 10 in the produe-
ton of cheap imitation silver ware on

He ate and drank the hard won earn

Jeanie as follows: ''Sad Providence,
in his mercy, has seen fit to tax AVA

and the house, story and a half
frame, was entirely consumed, to-
gether with all of the old mans fur
niture, vegetables, etc. The fire
probably occurred from a defective
stove. Mr. Eckert was asleep at
the time, and was badly burned
about the head and left arm, barely
escaping with his life, through a
window. He has been a very in
dustrious and saving man, and had
accumulated quite a sum of money,
by raising vegetables, chickens, &c,
which he was in the habit of ped
ding around town. Several silver
coin and spoons and gold pieces
have been picked up among the
ruins, and the old man probably
: lost some greenbacks. We sympa-
thize with old Charley, as he is call
ed, but learn that he has quite a
sum Of money out on interest and
will be able to gain living without
assistance. He seems to regret the
loss of his two feather beds, as we'll

can scarcely be estimated, especially upon
