A Happy Couple.

A man should always be little older,
little braver and little stronger, lit
tie wiser, and little more in love with
her than she is with him.
A woman should always be little
younger, and little prettier, and little
more considerate than her husband. He
should bestow upon her all his worldly
goods. and she should take good care Of
them. He may owe her every care and
tenderness that affection can prompt but
pecuniary indebtedness to her will become
a burthen. Better live on crust that
he earns than on fortune that she has
brought him.
Neither must be jealous, nor give the
other cause for jealousy. Neither must
encourage sentimental friendships with
the opposite sex. Perfect confidence il
each other. and reticence concerning theil
mutual affairs, even to members Of theil
own families, is first necessity.
A wife should dress herself becomingly
whenever she expects to meet her hus
bands eye. The man should not grow
slovenly, even at home.

Nova ScOtian Illiteracy.

In some of the newly and sparsely set.
tied regions of New Brunswick, inhabited
by unlettered immigrants, good deal of
difficulty was experienced in establishing
schools In many instances the only in.
struction tina. could be impaired for some
time was the A b c, reading, and little
writing. Tho pay was slim and uncer.
tain, and at times the teacher engaged
was very ilItorate A district superin-
tendent visited one of these schools in the
backwoods some twenty years ago. and
found it sadly lacking. Intending to
send some instructions to the teacher, he
asked him, when taking his leave, "What
is your post.offico address ?"
The teacher. who never heard of such
thing, looked blapkly at him, and said,
Sir 2"
Tho question was repeated, and after
moments hesitation the reply was, "Oh
I'm Roman Catholic"
The superintendent then said, 81 did
not ask you anything about your religion
| want to know what-is-your-post
oflice-address ?"
"Ob," said the teacher light break
ing over his countenance as he found
himself relieved from his unpleasant EN-
barrassment-"oh sure I'm an lrishman
sir"

Life in China.

At the death of the last emperor Of
China the most severe punishment menac.
ed those who should get themselves shaw
ed during one hundred days. The prohi.
bitive measure was applied 10 the hair as
well to the beard. An American lady
residing at Pekin writes to one of her
female friends that she trembed only at
seeing the head OF her Chinese professor .
Her terror was explained BY the fact that
the man in question, after the death OF
the emperor, had the misfortune to lose
his father and was therefore obliged to
mourn for him hundred days more so
that he had remained nearly seven months
without shaving, aud resembled a VERT.
able brigand. Nor wes this all; the
death Of his parent had obliged this un-
fortunate Chinaman TO wear white cloth.
ing on all occasions, whether in his owl
house or abroad he had obeyed that law
OF etiquette in putting over his dress 4
white garment, and never quitting it ,

The Latest Devil fish.

1t would seem that the seas around
Newfoundland are favortc resort of
these giant Cephalopods, for scarcely a
year elapses of late without one or more
specimens being either seen or cast ashore.
Here, therefore, the study Of these mar
inc monsters should be pursued. The
Mfs stest arrival Of the lCng az armed tribe
of last year, a. Grand Bank, on the shore
Of Fortune Bay. Here a SPLENDID speci.
men was flung ashore, uumulilated and
fresh but before any who knew its value
arrived at the spot, it was cut up, and
partly destroyed by the fishermen. Lit.
tie did the honest men dream the loss
science sustained when they flung the
fragments Of what in their eyes was only
useless Shiny mass to their hungry
dogs Fortunately Mr., Geo Simms, magis.
trate Of Grand Bank, heard Of the matter;
and was in time TO secure some important
measurements of the creature. He writes
me that he found the tentacula or long
arms, 26 feet in length and l6 inches in
circumference the eight short arms
were one.third the length Of the long ones,
and about tho same in circumference. The
head or central part, from which the
arms radiated was Sc feet in circumfer-
ence the body was 3 l.2 feet in length
measuring from the point Of junction with
the central part, so that the entire length
of body must have been over IA feet.
The circumference Of the body is not CIV
en-. Mr.. Simms was fortunately able to
secure the beak and one large sucker,
which he has presented to me- The beak
is very large and powerful, and the sucker
is over an inch in diameter, having den.
ticulated edges. The body of this speci-
men is twise the length of that taken in
Logic Bay, but curiously enough, the
tentacua are only two feet longer, though
much thicker, ii no mistake has been
made in the measurement. Altogether,
this must have been formidable monster
to encounter, with its body fourteen feet
in length and at least ten feet in circum-
ference. Those arms, 2G feet in length
and covered at the extremitcs with pow
erlul suckers, are worked by the creature
as dexterously as cat uses her paws,
and to be enfolded in the whole ten arms
with their 1000 suckers sinking into the
flesh, and seeming to drink the blood,
while the beak rent the victim. would be
an awful fate.

A Dead Sea Bath.

Mr.. g. A. kingsbury writes as follows

The specific gravity Of the water is such,
from its holding in solution SO large pro.

this fact, made for the shore, and tax.

could not swim, by the hand, led him in.
to the sea. where the water was many faith.
oms deep. At first he was quite reluctant
to follow me, but he soon gained confidence
on finding there was no danger of sinking,
and he enjoyed the novel bath as much
as if he had been an expert swimmer.
Should the bather allow the water to get
into his eyes or mouth he would suffer
considerable abatement to his enjoyment,
on account Of its extremely salt, bitter
and irritating nature. No fish can live

The Comic Sheik.

The rocks all about US are low, from
three feet to ten feet high, We have
one rope, out ahead, fastened TO rock,
upon which stands gang Of men, pulling
There is row Of men in the water under
the left side OF the boat, heaving at her
with their broad backs, TO prevent her
smashing on the rocks But our main
dragging force is in the two long lines OF
men attached to the ropes on the left
shore. They stretch out ahead Of US SO
far that i. needs an opera glass to discov-
er whether the leaders are pulling or only
soldering. These two long, struggling
lines are led and directed by new fig
ure who appears upon this shifting oper
attic scena u is a comisal sheik who
stands upon high rock at one side and
lines out the catch.line Of working re.
frain. while the gangs howl and haul in a
surgng chorus. Nothing could be wilder
or more ludicrous, in the midst Of this
roar of rapids and strain of cordage. The
shek holds long staff, which he swings
like the baton Of the leader Of an orches.
ira, quite unconscious Of the odd figure
he cuts against the blue sky. He grows
more and more excited, he swings his
arms, he shrieks, but always in tune and
in time with the hauling and with the
wilder chorus Of the cataract men; he is
in the very ecstasy Of the musical con.
ductor, displaying his white teeth, and
raising first one leg and then the other in
a delirious swinging motion, all the more
picturesque on account Of his flowing blue
robe and his loose white cotton drawers

which is enough in itself to draw the
boat onward, and every time he does il
the boat gains on the current. Surely
such an orchestra and such leader were
never seen before. For the orchestra il

swaying, pulling, and singing in rythmi'

The Last Attack of the British
at Bunker Hill.

General Clinton, who saw the discom
future Of the British forces from Copp's
Hill, crossed the river and took command
oil some five or six hundred men who
stood hesitating, without orders, on the
beach. His presence and his reinforce.
ment were most timely if be had moi
come up 1--WE should have been forced tc
retire." says the British report on the
Conduct of the War. General Howe now
left his place at the head of the left
column and massed his men on the right
making at the same time demonstration
at the rail fence, chiefly to cover the
movement Of the artillery, which was
placed so as so take advantage OF the gap
between the breastwork and fence, where
it could rake the interior of the redoubt.
The extreme left was led as before by
General Pigot and by General Clinton
while Howe led the centre, The men
were ordered to reserve their fire. to ad.
vance in column with bayonets fixed. and
TO carry the redoubt in front.
Prescott took in the situation at once.
When he saw the artillery in position, he
knew that straight, unobstructed line
led from the mouth of the guns to the in.
terror Of the redoubt when he saw the
solid column advancing without firing, up
TO the hill, right in face, he knew that
the storming of the redoubt was to follow
let the same resolution and steady nerve
held him and his men as before. Again
they waited; again the heroic, grimy
line Of men rose behind the parapct and
swept the enemy's ranks with their con.
centrated fire. The advancing forces
staggered; they were pushed forward by
those behind, by the swords of the officers
and goaded by the fury Of discounted
men. The artillery was plowing up the
earth in the redoubt, stones were falling
from within upon the desperate British
sure sign that the ammunition was gone
