THE DUKE AND THE SNoB.-The duke
was in church when II collection was an
nounced for some charitable object The
plate began to 60 round, and the duke
carefully took out aorin which he laid
on the pew before him, ready for transfer
to the plate. Beside him sat little suob
who, noticing the action, initiated it by
ostentatiously laying a sovereign along
side the ducal Aorin. This was too much
for his grace, who pulled out another
form, which he laid 10y the side Of the
first. The little snob followed suit by
laying another sovereign beside the first.
His grace quietly added third Aorin,
which was capped 10y the third sovereign
on the part of the little snob. Out came
the fourth to swell the dukes donation,
then the little snob triumphauty laid
three sovereigns at once upon the board.
The Duke psoduced three; thep plate came.
The little snob took up his handful of
soyereigns and ostentatiously ratified them
into the plate, then turning detantly to-
ward his rival, as ii to say, 4 think that
takes the shine out Of YOU Fancy his
chagrn when the duke, with a grim
smile, put one lorin on the plate and
quietly swept the remaining six back into
his pocket. His grace used to chuchlo
when he told that story.

But who can tell the whole that's meant
Our dearest thoughts are out of reach.

A CURIOUS INCIpENr.-In the "EX-

following rather singular fact Tho au-
thor, in the center of this country "neycr
before explored" !" in speaking Of his tray

" One was an old man, and seemed to be
the father OF the two fine young men.

signs, to get information of him as to

A FARMER who was pestered with
crows hit upon the plan of soaking some
corn in whisky and placing it in the field
so that the crows would get drunk, and
then he could easily close on them. AZ
ter soaking some corn all night, he put a
bountful supply in the field early next
morning, and in about two hours he went
out to see how things were progressing,
and mark what followed. one old crow,
little larger than the rest, had gathered
up and taken possession Of all the soaked
corn, and had built himself bar out OF
some elods of earth, and was retailing the
whisky-soaked corn to the other crows,
charging them three grains Of sprouted
corn for one soaked grain.

WATER TGLEscorEs.-The people OF
Norway carry in their fishing boats a
water telescope, or tube, three or four
feet in length. They immerse one end
in the water, and then looking intenty
through their glass, they are able to per-
ceive objects ten or fifteen lathoms deep,
as distinctly as if they were within few
feet Of the surface. SO, when they dis
cover plenty OF fish they surround them
with their large draught nets, and often
catch them in hundreds at a haul, which,
were it not for these telescopes, would
frequently prove precarious and dunprof
liable fishing. This instrument is not
only used by the fishermen, but is also
found in the navy and coasting vessels.
