The Cincinnati Commercial, speaking
OF the closing scenes in the administra-
ton of Gov. Noyes, of Ohio, and the
inauguration of Gov. Allen, says: "Hun-
dreds of guests had called, and scores
We're calling, to say their good-byes to
Governor Noyea. Among those VINO
entered the chamber, however, was an
old man, thin, wrinkled, pale and gray
fest suffering. He timidly asked to see
the governor, who stepped aside to Il
window with him, The old man said
he would have called before, but had
been sick. He came at that late hour
TO make an appeal for the pardon of an
erring son, who had been confined in
the Penitentiary for seven years, and
who had three moro to stay. What is
the name of your son 2 asked the gov
ernor. The Old man gave it. Governor
Noycs then, without making any definite
reply, requested him to step into his
private room and wait till he was at
leisure. Tho fact was, the pardon had
been granted early that morning, and
the old mans daughter had already
gone to carry the pardon to her brother
and accompany HIM from the Peniten-
tiary to the governors office. In a few
moments the liberated man arrived with
his sister, neither expecting to find the
father there, and the father not dream
ing that the pardon had already been
granted. One can readily imagine the
scene us the governor conducted the
two to his private room. The son flew
to his father and embraced him, and
then hinging his arms around the gov
errors neck, covered his face with
kisses. The old man, overcome by the
great happiness of the moment, sank
into his chair, sobhinS like IA child.
There were no dry eyes in that room,
and those who, few minutes later,
were talking and chatting with the re-
firing governor in the reception room,
little imagined in what touchingly
pathetic scene he had been IL partici-
pant.

The Invalid and the NiOlinist.

An old and intirm soldier was playing
his violin one evening on the Prater at
Vienna. His faithful dog was holding
his hat, i'll which passers-by dropped II
few coppers as they came along. On
the evening IN question, however, no
body stopped to put Il small coin into
the poor old fellows hat every one
went straight on, and the gayety OF the
the old soldiers heart, and showed itself
in his withcred countenance.
All at once, however, II well-dressed
gentleman came up to where he stood
listened to his playing for a few minutes,
and gazcd compasslonately upon him.
Ere long the old tiddler's weary hand
had no longer strength left to grasp his
bow his limbs refused to carry him
further he seated himself on stone
rested his head ON his hands, aud began
silently to weep. At that instant the
gentleman approached, offered the old
man piece of gold, and said:
Lend me your violin Il little while. v
Then having carefully tuned it, he
said
9 You take the money and I'll play y
He did play All the passers-by
stopped to listen, struck with the dis
tinsuished air of the musician, and
captivated by his marvellous genius.
Every moment the circle became larger
and larger Not copper alone, but
silver and even gold, was dropped into
the poor mans hat. The dog began to
growl for it was becoming too heavy
for him to hold At an invitation from
the audience the invalid emptied its
contents into his sack, and they filed it
again. After a national melody, in
which every one present joined with un-
covered heads, the yiolinist placed the
instrument upon the poor mans knees,
and, without waiting to be thanked, dis
appeared.
Who is it?" was asked on all sides.
cts Armand Boucher, the famous
violin player" replied some one in the
crowd. " He has been turning his art
to account iii the service of charity. Let
us follow his example.
Aud the speaker sent round his hat
also, made new collection, and gave
the proceeds to the invalid crying,
" Long live Boucher y
Deeply affected, the invalid lifted up
his hands and eyes toward heaven, and
invoked Gods blessing on his bena-
factor.
There were that evening two happy
men in Vienna the invaljd-plnced for
Il long time above the reach of want
and the generous artist, who felt in his
heart the JOY of doing good, according
to the words of Scripture, which says,
" The merciful man dOcth good to his
own soul.

Intelligence of Hogs.

Hogs often show great intelligence
and aptitude to learn. A forester had II
Chinese pig which followed him like a
dog, came at call, and ran up and down
stairs. 1t learned to blow and perform
several tricks. 1t was very expert in
hunting mushrooms, and, when told to
keep watch, it would remain at its post
until called away. When it's owner said,
" [ am going to kill you, it would lie
down on its back and stretch out its legs.
When Louis XI was sick, in order to
relieve the sadness of his mind, noble
man thought of teaching a pig to dance,
and bringing it before him. 1t was not
long before pig could hop about very
well to the sound of bagpipc. They
then dressed it with coat, pantaloons,
uecktie, hat, sword, etc, in short, all
that the court gentlemen of the time
were accustomed to wear, and intro
duced it into the presence of the king.
The animal bowed, danced, and followed
all orders in the most artistic manner,
until, getting tired, it became so awk
ward that the king roared with laughter,
to the delight of his colrtiers.
An English gentleman carefully trained
a hog for hunting ''Slug, +" for so the
hog was called, was very fond of the
chase, and was ever on the alert when
the huntsmen We're preparing to start
but the dogs could not endure its com
pany, and their owner was never able to
make use Of both at the same time.
Slug could scent bird from a great
distance, and would dig in the earth to
show where it had been. When the

The Wind Cutting Gamers.

They have queer atmospheric phcno-
mena out III Colorado Not long ago Il
man was walking down Virginia Canon,
when he was surprised by Il sudden
roaring sound, not unlike that made by
train of cars passing through tun-
mel. Stopping moment to listen, II
whirlwind, apparently not more than Il
yard in diameter, and travelling no
faster than spirited walk. picked him
up, as it We're, and waltzed off down the
road with him. Its vertical force was
sufficient to invert the tails of his coat
above his head. Notwithstanding the
pockets were loaded with specimens of
silver ore, and at the same time he was
carried along for hundred feet or
more, like feather, while under him
WAS ii noise like that of an empty cart
bouncing over stony street.

Sensible Advice.

Lamps must be filled every morning,
This is an imperative duty for every
housekeeper to see performed, for as
the oil burns down in a lamp, there is
created highly infammable gas, which
gathers imperceptibly over the surface,
and as fast as the oil is consumed this
gas increases, so when the oil is nearly
out OF the lamp, the slightest jar of the
table will set the gas on fire; an ex-
plosion follows instantaneously, and a
bomb shell would not be more destruc-
tive, for its touches are deathly. But
if the oil is burned only half way down
in your lamp, the gas is not of sufficient
power to do any injury therefore, let
me beg you never to defer the operation
of lamp-tilling to another day, but see
yourself that it is done. When / read
of deaths occurring from trying to light
fires with kerosene, L always think the
verdict of the Coroner's jury should be,
Served them right )" for it seems i'm.
possible to believe that any mortal could
be so foolish as to tamper with such a
highly intiammable liquid. Better try
to kindle fires with a powcler-can, well
filed, than with the contents of your
kerosene can.-Cor. Country Gentle

Naming a Child.

One evening, at the house of DIR.
Arnott 1883, Mr.. Rowland Hill gave
some curious traits of the wretched ig-
norance of population of nailers in
some central district of England with
which he was acquainted. A clergyman
exerted himself TO effect an improve
ment, and took particular care to get
their children baptized. One day, hav-
ing come to baptize a newly born
infant, whom he understood to be a
boy, he asked what name he should
give the child. The father was quite at
loss-had no predictions on the sub
ject
"Shall it be Scripture name?"
Assent.
"Well, what Scripture name p

Salt i'm the Ocean.

Everybody knows that the waters OF
the ocean are very salt to the taste but
how many of you have thought of the
immense quantities of salts of different
kinds that must be in the Atlantic and
Pacific to give flavor to such enormous
bodies of water?

these oceans could be separated from
the water and spread out equally over
the northern half of this continent, they
would form covering one mile deep.
So heavy would be this mass of salts
that all the mechanical inventions of
man, aided by all the steam and all the
water power in the world, could not
move it so much as one inch in even
centuries of time.
