Behind time-Tho back of a clock.

HORSE SToEY.-A stable-keeper in Ro-
chester has a hack-hor5e of which the follow
ing stories are told: At the end of the stable
IS a water faucet, under which has been
placed a large tub for the horse to drink from
When the animal is thirsty he scorns the use
of the tub, but turns on the faucet with his
teeth, and holds his head under the running
stream until his thirst isquenched, then turns
the faucet off again, and, with a knowing
look at his observers, trots back to his stall
During the present spell of cold weather the
water has been allowed to run to prevent it
freezing in the pipes. One evening, when
the men were elsewhere engaged, he went for
drink in his usual manner, aud after he got
through turned the faucet off. The conse-
quence was the pipes got frozen up and had
to be thawed out before the horse could
quench his thirst in his accu stomed manner
Atlidavits in support of these statements most
people will regard as necessary.

not fail to again call out select audience al
the Varieties, and Miss Coombs has reason tc
congratulate herself upon the reception of hel
" Pauline"
Her rendition was marked throughout by
an ease and grace which gave the performance
that rotundity and fullness of expression,
which could not but please even the most
censorious. Mr.. Norton as Claude Melnotte
fully sustained his reputation an actor of
guilty ton and high merit. The rest of the
cast was eXcellently personated.
ACADEMY OF MUs1c-It is singular what
effect negro melody has on the tastes of the
public; the majority of people would rather
go to tirst-clasS minstrel show than
Shakspearian revival. The attraction is mex
plicable, but nevertheless it is fact, as wit
ness the tremendous crowds which have
tioched to see Hlverly's Minstrels
There must be potent power in burnt
cork eccentricities that is past all finding out,
which is the best solution We can offer for the
rush at the Academy. The same programme
was repeated. and was given very acceptably.
Mr.. j. ". Freeth was in good voice and
sang the farewell song of "Enoch Arden " in
very artistic and telling manner. Mr.. T. j.
Dixon sang tenor solo very prettily. Owing
to severe cold the pleasure OF hearing Mr..
Harry yelling was limited to the rendition of
one verse OF pleasing ballad The song
and dance men, Primrose and West, were ex-
ceptionally good

IS that he thought that the step would prove a

President Grant might have urged with some

and that he did rot know that the feeling of
the party had changed
But after the greatest party reverse that has
been witnessed for many years in the United
