man, recently deceased, is fold by the

The Duke he says, was once in
church, no matter where, when colIcc

object. The plate or bag, or whatever
it might be, began to go round, and the
duke carefully put his hand into his
pocket and took out form, which he
laid on the pew before him ready for
transfer to he plate. Beside him sat
little snob who, noticing his action, imi
'ated it BY ostcntatiously laying
sovereign along side the ducal form
This was too much for his grace. who
dipped his hand into his pocket again
and pulled out another form, which he
laid by the side Of the first. The little
snOb soon followed au,t BY laying another
sovereign beside the first. His grace
quietly added another form, which was
capped by third sovereign on the part
of the little snob. Out came fourth
forin to swell the dukes donation, then
the little snob triumphantly laid three
soverelgns at once upon the Board The
duke, not to be beaten, produced throe
horins Just at this moment the plate
arrived The little suob took up his
handful of sovereigus and ostentatio usly

enrobed herself and then he could take

On the corner of Monroe and Front
streets to-day an old white man, with q
large grey beard, stood out in the sun,
and, taking off his hat, balanced his
long walking stick on his bald head. He
slowly turned around until he faced the
sun and until the end of the stick cast q
shadow down his face. After standing
still for fifteen minutes and muttering
over calculations, he replaced his hat
and wended his way feebly and slowly
up Front street. Whether he was an
American Diogenes who loved the sun
light or was an astronomer fixing up his
calculations on the transit of Venus, or
diyiner" hunting for buried treasure,
or an ancient mariner who had lost his
bearing and was taking an observation
of the sun with an improved theodolite,

and consequently will not. He was the
