MEMORY OF FACES

When man has the painters faculty
of recollecting faces, aud with it a quick
anl retentive memory of small facts, the
combination gives him great social pow
er. This was Macaulay's case. He
never forgot the face of man whom he
he had met in society. and with the face
he remembered all the salient facts con-
nected with the owner of it, Few things
are more tlattering to an ordinary NOR
tai than being thoroughly remembered
by great lion with whom he has per-
haps had brif interview several years
before / doubt if this faculty exists to
any great extent among our public men;
indeed, | have often been surprised at
the absence of it. A Russian baron of
the true divine-right school once main
tanned to me that this was an effect of
republican institutions, or. what came
to the same thing, that the opphsite was
the result of monarchial institutions. He
said that kings and princes were obliged
to see great many persons, wherefore
Providence had conferred on them va
rious means of being gracious to those
persons, of which prompt recognition
was GaldTy.

The Justification.

A few days since colored lad entered
a drug store in Portland with what he
described as an lawful feeling in the
stomach, just like it wor full Of fish hooks
and angle worms" and demanded a
"setter powder" as he had been advised
that would give him relief. According
ly the seidlitz powders were dissolved in
separate glasses as usual, and placed be-
fore him, with instructions to pour one
into the other and drink while efferves-
cling. But the sable youth did nothing
of the sort. Instead of following the
directions, he hastily drank off the con-
tents of one glass and Immediately swal-
lowed the other. They effect may be
imagined, but not described. The effer-
vesence, which should have taken pl ace
in the glass before it was drank, took
place in the bewilderd darkey's stomach,
sending off tho frothy liquid from his
mouth, nose, eyes and ears. As soon ~
the poor fellow could recover breath, he
cried in frightened tones:
"My stomach has busted | can't
live a minute In few moments,
however, he felt better, and turning to
depart, he said "Dat stuff may do
well nufon de white trash, but its shNre
death on niger
