who, believing themselves to be quite
alone and unobservcd, walked up and
down and conversed quite freely together.
They told each other of visits which
they expected on New Years day, and
heard one of them say to the other, very
distinctly, that she was promised calls
from Count j. B. Pritchard, MARQUIS
Hiram Butler, and the young viscount
Jimmy McBridal. I brushed the
hair from my ears, for
they must have deceived me.
My friend Pritchard was the son of
Brooklyn soap boiler, who but short
time since was admitted to partnership in
his fathers business; my other friend
Hiram Butler-was cashier of bank on
Broadway; and only two hours before
had, in company with Jimmy McBridal,

ODE TO THE OCEAN.

Interest has been excited by the discovery
OF a remarkable coincidence between the we'll.
known passage in Byron's "Childe Harold"
beginning
..Roll on, thou deep and dark blue ocean, roll;
Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain,"
and certain stanzas in fin code to the Sea-"
by Chenendolle, a French poet, which are as
follows:
"Dread ocean, burst upon me with thy
Fling wide thy waters when the storms bear
sway;
Thy bosom opens to thousand lrore.;
Yet fleets with idle daring breast thy spray.
And Craze the surface of thy deep domain
~. IMAM dares not tread thy liq lid way,
Thou spurns't that despot Of a day,
Iossed like snowflake on the spray,
From storm gnlfs to the skies;
tie breathes and reigns on solid land
And ruin marks his tyrant hand;
Thou bidst him in that circle stand
Thy reign his rage defes.
'sOr, should he force his passage there,
Thou risest, hooking his despair:
The shipwreck humbles all his pride;
He sinks within the darksome tide
The surge's vast untathomed gloom
His catacomb--
Without name, without tomb
1.-THE banks are kingdoms, where the shrine,
the throne,
The ponlp of human things are changed and
past.
The people, they are phantoms, they are
flown,
Time has avenged thee on their strength at
last.
Thy pillows idly rest on Sidon's shore,
And her bold pilots wound thy pride no more.
''Rome, Athens, Carthage! what are they?
Spoiled heritage, successive prey;
New nations force their onward way,
And grasp disputed reign;
Thou ~ changest not, thy waters pour
The same wild waves against tile shore,
Where Liberty had breathed before,
And Slavery hugs his chain.
Estates bow Times sceptre presses still
On Apennine's subslding hill;
No trace of Time is lett on thee.
Unchanging sea,
Created thus, and still to be.
"sea! Of Alm;ghtiness itself the immense
And glorious mirror! how thy azure face
Renews the heavens in their magnifcencel
What awful grandeur rounds thy heaving
Two worlds thy surge, eternal warning,
deeps!''
Chenendolle's ode may be found in Long
fellows "Poetry OF Europe" from which the
above translation is derived Some doubt ex-
lists as to who was the plagiarist in this case, if
any plagiarism there is. The fourth canto of
,.Childe Harold" in which Byron's famous
lines to the sea appear, was published in 1918;
Chenendolle was born in 1869. In 1907 he

How the T0nsorfal Fionds Were
Fooled.

A man who had been nearly talked to
death by loquacious BARRIERS went into a
shop the other day which he had never
patronized before, and handed one of the
artists card on which were the words,

barber motiohed him to chair, and then,
turning around, winked at his fellow
laborers and said: "Here's deaf and
dumb one, boys: wants an easy shave.'

bet he can't returned the first. ''An
easy shave be bowed! Why he's
got bristles on him. like an old
Texas boar, and his skin looks
tougher than canal mulc's.' The bows
laughed, and the operator, who in the
meantime had lathered the mans face,

the razor over the facial territory before
him. "What nose that isl said he. IF
he should sneeze where would ] be? We'll.

got," observed Johnny, as he ran his fin
gers through the mans hair. II say,
some of you fellows write card and ask
him if he don't want shampoo The
card was written and presented to the
man, who shook his head at it, and the
job being finished, he rose from the chair.

down his fifteen cents. 81 don't mind
