A Hardshell preacher wished to bring
forth good illustration, as he thought,
and hence he took a scarnat as he called
it, into the pulpit with him, and some
thing to crack it with. On holding it up
in the course of his sermon, he said: my
friends, you see this warnut-well, this
outer hull here is like the Methodists,
soft and spongy, with no strength in it;
see, I even break it with my fingers" !"
and suiting the actions to the words, he
disclosed the inner hull and said, "this is
like the missionary Baptists. hard and
dry, with no substance in it; but the
kurnul-the kurnul, my friends, is like
the good old primitive, full of fairness
and sweetness" He then proceeded to
crush the ''warnut" and give his hearers
an ocular demonstration of his illustra-
ton, but behold, it was rotten; and to
the utter astonishment of his hearers,
he cried out: by jingsl it's rotten"

A Frenchman has devised an arrange
ment by which smoke and cinders can be
kept out of the windows of cars, thereby
doing away with one of the most disagree
able incidents of railway travel. 1t CON
sists in the attachment of pipe to a loco
motive smoke stack, which carries the
smoke to the end of train of cars If the
invention be found practicable each car
wlll be supplied with length of pipe,
ana when train is made up the pipes will
be attached to each other. Rubber ''bump-
ars' between each length will prevent the
snndering OF the connection when the
train is going at high speed and the cars
are swaying The invention is being tried
on New York road

Is he gone to a land of no laughter.
The man that made mirth for us all:
Proves death but IL silent hereafter
From the sounds that delights or appal:
once closed. have the eyes no more duty.
No more pleasure the exquisite ear~:
Has the heart done O'erflowing with beauty.
As the eyes have with tears:
Nay. if aught can be sure. what is Sllrrr
Than that earth'> good decays not with earth
And Of all the heart springs none are pnrer
Than the springs of the fountain of mirth,
He that sounds them has pierced the heart ;
hollows,
The place where tear chose to sleep;
For the foam-akes that dance in lifr'S shadows
Are wrung from litc's deep.
He came with Il heart full of gladnes>.
From the glad-hearted world of the West.
Won ollr laughter, but not with mere madness,
Spake and joked with us not i'll mere Jest:
For the man in our hearts fingered after
When the merriment died from our ear
And those who We're loude>i in laughter
Are silent IN tears.
