~JekinE Going On.r

This little story, it is needless to say. is
from Western paper:
Old Uncle Jimmy, as he was called, vas
a strong and devout Methodist. He al
ways took leading part IS one Of the
congregation. and sometimes the boys
thought he interested himself little more
than necessary about their affairs and
doings. for he3was always lecturing some
one about their morals" and exposing
their bad deeds to the public. So they,
the boys, concluded they would break
him Of this very bad habit.
The school-house in which the services
were conducted was arranged in their old
style-the seats running around the SIDES
Of the room. Now Uncle Jimmy had one
particular seat which he always claimed
and occupied during services.
Now for the plan Of attack. which was
thus:
A small hole WAS made through the
seat and common darning needle fasten-
to . wooden spring under the seat. t.

The Augusta (Me.) Journal Of Friday,
10th inst, tells this marvellous tale
We have an event to chronicle that
would scarcely be believed were it not
authoritatively vouched for by compe-
tent witnesses-parties whose testimony
cannot well be disputed or set aside. A
young man in the town Of Vassasboro, in
this county, was suffering in the last
stages of consumption, the disease which
had insidiously and stcalthily brought
him to the verge Of the grave. For
several weeks he had been entirely pros.
trate and unable to speak, even to article
late syllable. He became so oppressud
for breath that his attendants were COM
PEELED to raise the windows, put out
the fire, and resort to every means to OBJ
tain fresh air. One day last week (Thurs-
day, We understand,) the young man died.
Friendly hands prepared the poor, ema-
ciated body for the burial; but just as
the attending friends were arranging the
remains for the casket there appeared un-
mistakable evidences of returning life, IN
what had seemed to them an inanimate
mass Of clay. The ear Of an attendant
was bent down to the side of the dead
man. and it was discovered that the
heart had begun again its slow and meas
ured palpitations, the pulse throbbed.and
the young man arose from the death
shrouds, opened his mouth and spoke in
clear and distinct words to those who
stood appalled, in the death chamber.
There was no huskiness in his voice; he
appeared lively AID active !: said he felt
mot the slightest pain, but, to use his own
language: II feel just as we'll as | ever
did,
At his request the neighbors were all
called in. who crowded the house for
hours, declaring that the recovery of the
man was equal to any miracle recorded
in the scriptures. He told this startled
assemblage of his friends and neighbors
that, as he died, all things seemed dark,
but only for an instant; his eyes sud-
denly opened to new world, the real
heaven, which had been SO many times in
his thoughts and given him SO much COM
fort in his last weeks Of pain and sorrow.
He stood upen an eminence which over
looked vast and beautiful plain; the
magnificent plain stretched further than
ais enlarged vision could penetrate, and
he described it in language which, to hi:
mortal auditors, seemed extravagant II
the extreme. But the revivified life o.
the young man was not to continue long
Before night he again resigned himself t.
death. The body was kept REASONABLE,
length Of time, and buried on Sunday
last, the funeral being largely attended
We have written out the particulars o
this remarkable event substantially rs "
have heard them, allowing our intelligen
readers the privilege Of drawing their owl

KENEALT IN THE HOUSE.

Correspondence New York WORLDLY

Correspondence New York Worldly
LONDON, Feb. 2O.-When DR.. Kenealy
entered the lobby, brandishing his um-
brella, every one shrank away from him,
and it was soon whispered about that
there was to be ''scene" in the House,
for the reason that, out of all its 658
members, two could not be found who
were willing to disgrace themselves by
introducing him to the Speaker; and it is
an indispensable preliminary to MEM
ber's admission that he should be
thus introduced. One member alone
was ready to vouch for DR.. Ken
ealy-the bold Whalley. 1t had been
thought that Mr.. Newdegate would be his
other sponsor; but he slinked away and
would not come to the front. DR.. Ke-
nealy, then, was left to his own devices;
and entering the House, still with his UNI
brella and his big parchment, he took q
seat under the gallery. Presently the
Speaker called upon newly-elected men,
bers to come forward and take the oath.
Upon this DR.. Kenealy arose and marched
boldly up the room alone, still clinging
closely, however, to his hat, his umbrella,
and his parchment. Sir Erksine May,
the clerk, went towards him to receive
the certificate Of his election, when the
Speaker interposed and pointed out the
necessity for introduction. DR.. Kenealy
was prepared with an answer, and fairly
opened an argument upon the
point before the Speaker could re-
cover from surprise at an un-
sworn member holding forth in
Parliament to stop him. Mr.. Brand then
entering into the longest exposition he
has given from the chair, explained that
practice never broken during nearly two
centuries could not be disregarded, and
announced his determination to see it
carried out. At this the House cheered
heartily, and shouts of NO from all
quarters followed the Speakers intima-
ton that the House might, if it pleased,
dispense with the rule. DR.. kenealy.
with his old pertinacity, again sought to
speak as Mr.. Disraeli rose close beside
him. Again the Speaker INTERVIEWED, and
suggested the propriety of q withdrawal
until the matter was settled. Nothing
abashed, the Doctor bowed low, turned
sharp round. and carried his un.
brella out of the House. Many members
cheered Justify as he retired. and INDUCED
in a hearty laugh when the Premier, with
an apt Interpretation of the feelings of the
House, expressed an opinion that there
could be no doubt of the identity of the
honorable gentleman. On this ground
and because of circumstances of the case
he advised relaxation of the rule. Hi
influence was sufficient to change the hu
NOR of the House. The member from
Stoke being sent for, was duly sworn, ant
being presented by the Clerk, was receiv
ed by the Speaker, who shook him by tn
hand in the customary fashion. Tn
Doctor went round by the Chairman, an,
disappeared just As Mr.. Gorst. the Tor,
member for Chatham, was triumphant,
escorted to the table by the two whips.
while his party greeted him with ACCLAIM,
tions.

The LOST Grave.
"A Pathetic Incident of a City Bury ing
Ground.
from the Detroit Free Press

From the Detroit Free Press.J
If YOU have ever passed the old desert
ed grave yard on Russell street, near the
house Of correction, you know that there
is not more lonely spot in Detroit. 1t
is score of years since any one was
buried there. The fences lean in or out;
the few trees are ragged in limb and
trunk the weather-beaten headstones
lean this way or that, or have fallen down.
The rich and the poor who sleep under
the sod have been dnst for years, and if
any of them left friends behind they are
scattered now and are not here to fill up the
sunken graves and plant flower to take
the gloom away.
The other day people saw an old wo-
man walking through the graveyard,
brushing the moss from some ofthe head
stones to look at the letters, and study
ing long over the quaint characters carved
into others. BY and by she crossed the
street and sat down on the steps of a
cottage, and when people saw how old and
feeble she was, and that her eyes were
full of tears, they pitied her. She could
not answer at first, but by and by she
told them that she had come hundreds of
miles to take look at grave which she
knew must be in the yard, but which she
could not find. Half century ago she
buried child there, and all through the
long, long years, though moving here and
there, her mothers heart had not forgot
ten the dead. Old now, her steps feeble
and her locks gray, and feeling that she
had little longer to remain on earth, she
had come clear across the State alone to
have last look at the little grave. Years
had, gone by, but she thought she could
walk right to the spot, and there was
half hope in her heart that strangers
hands mi ght have kept the headstone
white and the grave as "hen she last saw
it. She found the old yard cut up
by streets, the city all around
and beyond. and of the hundreds
Of mounds and head stones which
she unus saw but score or so were left.
She sought among the leaning headstones,
and she stood under the dying willows and
searched the field for the small stone
which bore the words: "Our Wi!lie," but
the fight of time and the hand Of pro-
gress were more powerful than mother, s
love. Fifty years since the little dead
body was lowered into his grave han a
century since the headstonc was placed to
mark the spot And yet her mother S
heart brought her back in her old age
with the hope that her tears might fall
upon the little grave, obliterated and pass
ed from sight forever.
1t was sad enough to see tears falling
down her wrinkled cheeks, and to know
that her old heart was aching with disap-
pointment, and men spoke kind words to
her, and women wiped their eyes in sym
pathy. Looking through her tears at the
heak and lonely field, its loneliness reliev-
q and yet made more lonely by the time
worn headstones and the clumps of briars,
10 wonder that the poor old woman felt
Il in her heart, and had to sob out:
sI'm afraid can't find him in heaven
heavens so largo"

about two bushels per acre in the wheat.
This year we raked the stuble with a

Yates grain either wet or dry. l cut 125
acres of grain, and averaged IL acres per
day, and the last day cut fifteen acres
Of wheat and two binders bound it. They
had never worked on harvester before,
and believe the binding arrangement is
better than the one on the Marsh. The
grain saving box is . splendid thing. l
saved in one days work six bushels Of
wheat in it, and it does actually save the
shelled grain more than l expected when
bought it; and, in short, am we'll pleas.

which was attached string running
around the entire room parallel with the
seats; the string was fastened to the seat
SO that when it was pulled in certain di.
rection it would cause the needle to pass
up through the seat. and whoever hap
oened to be on it would receive the full
benefit of the situation.
Well, the time came for trial; the boys
were all there early. At last Uncle jim
my came in and dropped into the accus-
toned seat.
No sooner had he touched, however,
than he bounded up again with yell
that might easily have been mistaken for
that of mad dog. On looking around
for the cause Of his sudden discomfort he
could find nothing, and soon all was quiet
again
After services had begun some one gave
the string another pull, when Uncle
Jimmy shouted out:
"Joking going on here!'
The minister and congregation looked
at him, and some Of them arose in their
seats; but, as before, everything quoted
down and services proceeded.
After while, forgetting his troubles,
Uncle Jimmy gradually went off into the
jerked, more resolute than before. Uncle
Jimmy jumped again, rubbing the afflict-
ed part, and exclaimed:
'Joking--joking going on here!''
This time the parsons and deacons gath
cred around him. and the boys being no
longer able to hold in, burst out laughing.
in which the rest of the congregation
soon followed suit.
A more thorough search was made and
the needle was found but not the boys.

Disraeli's reform bill of 1867, establish
ing household suffrage, multiplied its con-
stituency six times over; the number OF
its inhabitants entitled to vote being now
more than $4,000. Obviously the in

than $50 year, the old qualification,
and who vote now from the mere fact OF
