ONE OF LINCOLN,s JOKES.

MaunseQ B. Field tells the follow
ing:
1t happened that at one time block
ade-runner going out of Charleston
harbor was captured, and on board OF
her were found certain dispatches from
the Spanish Consul In that city for his
own government. These dispatches
were very improperly opened by the
captor and then forwarded to the STATE
Department at Washington. Mr.. Sew
ard, Immediately after he received
them, sent for the Spanish Minis ter
Mr.. Tassara, and, with expressions OF
great regret that the envelope had been
tempered with, offered him the dis.
patches. The Minister, highly indig.
nant, declined to receive them. Then
Mr.. Seward proposed to forward them
to their destination through the medi,
UNI of our own agents. This PROPOSE
ton was equally unacceptable, and the
Secretary Of State was at a loss what
to do. He shortly afterward explained
the difficulty to the President, whom it
reminded Of little story" when
/ lived IN Indiana, he said, "therelived
near us an old negro known as Uncle
josh He was a very pious darkey,
but was so intrm that it was
impossible for him to 90
10 the neighboring school house
to listen to an itinerant preacher who
might happen to discourse there ON a
Sunday. However, in order to made up
as far as possible for his own inability
to attend, he always compelled his
grandchildren to go, and they were re-
quired not only to recOllect the text,
but also to be able to give the old man
some account of the sermon. On one
occasion a Methodist came and
preached. He told the congregation
that there were two kinds Of people in
this wOrld-Methodist and Baptist;
that the Methodist followed a road that
led to heaven and the Baptist one that
led to hell. The next Sunday there pre-
scented himself hard-shell Baptist who
had heard about the sermon of his
Methodist brother. He told his audi
tors that 1t was true that there were
two kinds of people in the world
MethOdlsts and Baptists-and that they
followed different roads: but that It
was the Baptist road that led to heaven
and the Methodist road that led to hell.
When Uncle Josh heard this he
scratched his wool AMI said. Each one
says that there are only two roads, and
that his own leads to heaven and the
other to hell Well, this old niger
will 90 across lots Seward, you will
have to 90 across lots.

L
Rebounding, resounding, from rocks on eacl
side,
Now filling with music the long, narrow glade
Now sending its voice on the breeze far anC
wide,
From the green waving corn to the forest'
dark shade.
Retreating, retreating, retreating and meeting,
And ever repeating each sweet, mellow sound;
While slowly and softly the daylight is fieeting,
And evening lets fall her dim curtain around;
As catching the musical silverv chime
OF bells from the tower OF the church in the
dale,
While weary ones sit in the shade of the lime.
And the cowboy returns with his herd from
the vale.
1t falls on the ear of beautiful child,
Tripping lightly along on her path thrO' the
With a sudden delight the fair creature is wild.
And mingles her voice with the sound Of the
bells.
As harpers, with delicate touch and rare skill,
Bring forth sweet accOrds from the nicely
tuned strings,
1t plays on her heart and awakens a thrill,
And calls forth the song that she jOyOusly
sings.
Thus carOlling merrily, laughing with glee,
And clapping her small hands in bOundless de-
light,
She seems, with her movements so airy and free
frolicsome fay that comes forth in the night

QUITE a number of our exchanges are re-

parent sell. The article relates that Mr..
Halter had a fine geological cabinet in which
were number of those ClObular masses
found in shale formations, which, on being
broken open, are always found filled with
beautiful crystals OF slick or lime as well as
mere or less water. Having this fine col
lection, Mr.. Haller rashly married. His
wife went into bis laboratory. and seeing
several of these. induced a servant to break
one of them open. The water was saved,
when a within seized her 10 drink il. Hor-
rible to relate, she grew ill,died, and before

WORK AND WAGES.

There are about one thousand five hun
dred daily labOrers out of work in Cincin-
natl. At a recent meeting there it was re-
solved to refuse SIPS as a days
wages, whereupon q correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette goes into some calcula-
tiOns that are valuable:
Fifteen years ago (in his report of 1859
the Commissioner of Statistics gave the
price of labor and the prices of leading pro-
ducts. They were ascertained by many in
quiries, and by the reports of the Chamber
of Commerce. The results were:
Common day labOrers Gin gold. IS 90
Wheat, per bushel. ............... l O3
Hogs, per cWt. ................... %
Mess pork, per Dbl. II W
Sugar. -
COiiee. II
These were tax en- for Dec. l, 1858, and
they show clearly what were the relations
between labor and subsistence on that day.
Now, let us take il for December, 1873, and
assume common labor to be what the work
men who recently met and refused to take,
because it was too small-S1.25 per day
and take bread and meat of the best kind
as the standard of living. Then the pres
ent condition of labor is this:
Common labor, per day. p
Wheat, per bushel. ................. 90
logs, percWt. W
These prices being reduced to the gold
standard, which was that Of 1858, with gold
at 10 per cent, gives the result:
Present Vie of labor, in goldper days Is
Wheat per bushel. ................. l 80
Hogs per cWt. W
Then the changes from 1858 to 1873 are
precisely as follows, viz:
PR. CT.
The price of labor has advanced. "a
The price Of wheat has advanced. 81
The price of pork has decreased. ..... %
Taking the largest ration for an able
bodied man at pound of meat anda pound
Of bread, the laborer can buy them to-day
for exactly what he did in 1855. But the
wages have advanced tOtwenty-fyeper cent.
| The clear and absolute result is that, esti-
mated by the true standard, the value in
substance, wages have advanced consider
ably.

THE nuisance of being forced to call for
books in public library, instead Of being
admitted to the shelves to browse at lei
sure, has received a funny illustration. In
the literary catalogue of the British Muse
um a gentleman named Tucker found a
work by a nameSake under the head of
''histories." Naturally desiring to see it,
he asked an attendant to bring it to him.
The search for the Volume required two
hours, and when it came it proved to be
'sThe History of Little Tom Tucker" The
gentleman left in a rage, and has not been
seen in the reading-roOm since.
