The Delights of Visiting.

What is it to 60 away on visit? Well,
it is to take leave of the little velvet
rocking-chair, which adjusts itself so
nicely to your shoulders and spinal col
umn to cram, jam, squeeze, and other
wise compress your personal effects into a
an infinite small compass; to be shook,
jolted and tossed, by turns, in carriage,
railroad car and mboat; to be dealened
with the stentorian lungs of cab-drivers,
draymcn and porters; to clutch your
baggage as if every face you saw was a
highwayman; or to find yourself trans
ported with rage at finding it transported
by steam to Greenland or Cape Horn.
1t is to reach your d'sh0use, travel
stained, cold and weary, with an unbe-
coming crook i'm your bonnet; to be ut
terly unable to get the frost out of your
tongue, or, "the beam into your eye"
and to have the felicity of hearing some
strange guest remark to your friend, as
you say an early good night, 'Ts it posi-
bic that is your friend Miss GreyT
1t is to be ushered into the best
chamber" (always north one) of cold
January night; to unlock your dress
with stifiened digits; to find everything
III ,NOul tIuhh \Dut goui hiShe-NuPu W
creep between polished linen sheets, on
to congealed mattress, and listen to the
chattering of your own teeth until day
light.
1t is to talk at mark, twelve hours on
the stretch; to eat and drink all sorts of
things which disagree with you; to get
up sham fits of enthusiasm at trifles; to
learn to yawn circumspectly behind your
finger tips; to praise spoiled child when
you feel like wringing its neck; to avoid
all allusion to topics unsuited to your
pro TEN latitude; to have somebody for
ever at your nervous elbow trying to make
you enjoy yourself; to laugh when you
want to cry; to be loquacious when you
had rather be taciturn; to have mind
and body in unyielding harness, for lin
gering, consecutive weeks; and then to
invite your friends, with hypocritical
smile, to play the same farce over with
you whenever business or pleasure calls
them to FrogtOwn!

A Cats Dream.

Some of our readers who have watched
cats or dogs while doing, have probably
been amused at movements showing that
they really were dreaming, in their way.
Land and Water tells this story of cat
which evidently had dream
"She was very still, and appeared to
be fast asleep, when suddenly she sprang
into the middle of the room, where she
fixed her feet on a limited spot on the
floor, to which also her nose was applied,
as if closely grasping something which
she held with her claws. This continued
for short time, when the nose was gently
raised, and the visible attention was di-
rected to the feet, which still continued
their grasp, but, after time, one of them
was gradually removed, and then the
other, OH which puss appeared greatly at
loss to imagine whittier the imaginary
object could have gone 20 as to escape
her grasp. She looked in various di-
rectiOns along the floor with foolish face
of confusion and then again her at
tention was directed to the spot on
which the feet were closely pressed, as if
to examine closely whether the presumed
escape had been by sinking through the
floor; and when this seemed unsatisfac-
tory, the disappointed animal, now
widely awake, retired slowly from the
spot; but she returned more than once
to re-examinc the place, as if she found
it impossible to comprehend how an OBJ
ject she had 20 plainly seen and grasped
should sink into nothing. Many minutes
elapsed before this cat appeared to be
reconciled to the conviction that what
had seemed a dream wasnot in truth
reality.

Interest on Friendship.

In 1850 young man named Osborn,
who had recently arrived at the mines
from the East penniless and friendless,
was taken sick. He told his condition to
a fellow adventurer named Hitchcock,
who was little better off, and the latter
promised to "see him through. The,
promise was kept, and when, after two
months of illness, Osborn arose from his
bed, his friend handed him $3.50 to bear
his expenses and to procure tools, saying
to him, eff ever you get able you can
pay me back, but do not worry yourself
and injure your health in trying to make
the money to quick" One year and a
half from that time Osborn sent Hitch
cock $3.50, with the following note:
cpl pay interest on friendship" His
labors proved remunerative, and in 1873
he was worth $3.50, 900. While in San
Francisco he met and recognized his old
friend. When they parted, after several
days companionship, Osborn gave
Hitchcock sealed package, with the in
junction that it was not to be opened un-
til he was on the cars. Then Hitchcock
found that it contained deed for one
sixth of a rich silver mine, with a small
note containing the words: "Interest OH
friendship" Hitchcock has sold his in
terest for $4,000. .s4
