son was over, and make the girl his bride.
In the meantime she had given her heart
and promise to young man of the val
ley who had never even looked upon the
sea. The priest was manly young fel-
low, and we admired him because he so
heartily sympathized with the young
pair, and sent the father raging out of
the sanctuary. After a. little while an
other young woman was vailed, and the
procession started, leaving the betroth-
ed pair kneeling in front of one of the
altars. The father east himself from the
high city wall that night, at spot where
it Grdles the edge of the hill that over
! IeeSs-the river, where the ivy grows in
va dsmasses that can neverbe imagined
by an American who pets and coaXes
th'S obstinate vine to twine for few feet
Al pg his walls, and then sees it turn
81 low and refuse to thrive. Into this
t.Srgled mass, the poor frantic wretch of
Ia father threw himself, and only broke
i leg when he intended to take his life.
He was found next morning, his leg
properly dressed, and he was sentenced
not long time after to years impris-
onment for attempting suicide.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all

The children were nestled al snng in their beds,
While visions 81 sugar pums danced through

And mamma in her 'kerchicf, and in my cap,
Had just settled ourselves for a long winters
nap,
When ont on the lawn there arose such clatter.

Away 10 the window few like a fash.
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast Of the new-fallen snow.

More rapid than eagles his courscrs they came.

A dry le1yes that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the

So up - the house-top the courscrs they flew.
With TIE sleigh iul Of toys, and 1t. Nicholas,
And then ina ty7inlling heard on the roof

:. Good for POny---NO Good for War
riOr."

Col. Stevens, an officer with much eX-
perience- of savage life, was employed
on the plains, rs Government engineer,
to build a number of stone houses for
the Indian chiefs. These tenements
are designed as bats to catch their
tribes. In six months all his tenements
were gone, sold to the white men for n
few Fegs'of whisky. One big chief,
Long Antelope, kept his house, and
Stevens rode to see this chief, as being
a man of higher hope than others OF his
race. He found Long Antelope smok-
inc in tent pitched near the window
of his house. "Why living in a tent,
Long Antelope, when you have a good
house?'' Long Antelope smiled.
"House good for pony, no good for
warrior-ugh." Stevens went in, and
found Long Antelope's pony stalled in
the dining-room. "A house." says
Stevens, sis too much for full-blood
Indians brain. The only notion you
can ret into such fellows head Is that
to settle down means to wrap his shoul-
ders in a warm blanket instead OF IN a
skin, to loaf about the agency instead OF
going out to hunt, and to spend his time
in smoking and drinking instead Of tax
inc scalps."

AT Norwich, Conn, the other day, a
tramp was given an old vest. He soon
returned with a five-dollar bill he said
he found in one of the pockets. The
gentleman of the house was so well
pleased with his honesty that he gave
him dollar, and the next day discov-
cred that the bill was a wretchedly exc
cuted counterfeit.

A Horse Funeral.

A gray horse, which in lifetime OF
twenty-eight years had travelled with a
circus, been mortgaged four times,
served in the rebellion, and been less
gloriously useful in his old age at farm
work, died recently at Oconto, Wiscon-
sin. His name was Robinson Crusoe,
and he was called Bob for short by
familiar acquaintances. His owner had
a coffin made of black walnut, hand
somely finished, and bearing a plate in
scribed with the name and age. A
funeral was attended by two hundred
villagers. After a speech laudatory OF
the dead horse, procession was form
ed like this:

Band of Music.
Coffin on a Truck drawn by Six Horses.
Bob's Mate, heavily Draped with Grape.
Mourners AfOOt.

The route to the grave was through the
main street of the village. A halt was
made to allow a photographer to make
a picture of the pageant. At the grave
there was a discussion as to whether
the coffin, which was shaped to hold the
animal with his legs naturally extended,
should be buried on the side or stand
ing up cdgewise. Some argued that
the horse should lie on his back, just
like n human corpse; others that he
should be left in a standing attitude, as
IN life; and third party held that he
ought to repose on his side. The own
er, who had intended no burlesque, de-
cided to bury his favorite in the latter
way; and so this strange funeral rite
ended dpcOrOuSlV.
