An OId-Fa Father.
BY A. K. DE PRIRSR.

She sat in high backed pew, in the
old church where her parents had been
christened, and where she too had been
brought as a child of the Covenant.
She takes up a small well-worn psalm
book, and opens it at the fiy.leaf, on
which is written, in school boys hand,
To Agnes, from Robert" just the
faintest breath of sigh escapes her as
she softly closes the book. Then she
moves to the most remote corner Of the
dark old pew, and sits motionless in
rapt thought. She had passed the flush
OF girlhOod, and so quiet and sedate In
all her ways that she appears yet older.
Her scrupulously neat attire is of sober
gray, with close fitting bonnet of the
same neutral tint, relieved by cluster
of bright scarlet berries and dark ivy
leaves. Her glossy blue black hair lies
smoothly above low womanly fore
head; the dark gray eyes are cast down,
and the long heavy lashes sweep cheeks
sallow in their paleness. Surely Agnes
Mckee is not beauty I; but as she sits
there in the grave house of worship, in
the hush of the Sabbath morn, there is
a sweet, quiet repose around the we'll
formed mouth,a settled look of resigna'
tion In the attitude, which speaks of a
peace which passeth all understanding"
Cropping out from the family pew is a
numerous tribe of children and grand
children, for Elder Mckee has obeyed
the Sciiptural injunction, increase and
multiply, and replenish the earth )"
and his sons and daughters have done
likewise-all except Agnes, who is the
remaining staff of their old-age.
Younger sisters have left the paternal
roof to become wives and mothers, and
Aunt Agnes" is household word
among her nleces and nephews, but she
has given up all thought of ever being
called by tenderer name.

Cowan, member fer Newcastle-on-

mons:
"The right honorable gentleman,
the prime minister, had told them
that the throne Of this country de-
pended for its support on the spirit
Of the people. He quite agreed
with that opinion, The monarchy
did not rest on soldiers bayonets
or policemen's batons. 1t did not
even depend on law, but on the
good sense and right feeling Of the
people. While they recognized that

According to the plan Of ma
tional defense announced by the
German government after the
French war, the improvement and
extension of the fortresses in AL.
SAGE, Lorraine, were to be under
taken first, the erection of fortif-
cations on the Rhine and the sea-
coasts next, and the extension of
the fortresses on the caste from
tier last. This order is now to be
departed from so far as the eastern
fortresses are concerned. Although
the works on the Rhine were only
begun last year, three forts are to
be built at Posen during the next
twelve months, at a cost Of 1,800,-
900 marks each, and three more
are to be erected in the course of
1877. 1t is also proposed to enlarge
the Notifications at Konigsberg and
Thorn; but whether this will be
done in the present year is not yet
settled. The new enceinte at May
ence is to be completed within the
next few months, and the recon
struction of the works around Co.
logne is being actively proceeded
with. On the coasts, the mouth
Of the Elbe, Weser and Jahde ar,
being fortified, the works at the
entrance of Kiel Harbor have beer
nearly finished, and preparations
are being made for fortifying thu
harbor of Wilhelmshaven on the
land side.-PaH Mall Gazette.

From the Austin Reveille.
Matters have been very quiet in
the Sazerac Lying Club Of late, but
a member confdentially informs us
that when the boys get paid off
they will make "Rome howl" To-
day is pay day, and, consequently,
an exciting session of the club may
be expected this evening. They
expect to initiate a new member
this evening, who is prepared to
take his solemn oath that he saw
man fall three thousand feet down
an incline without touching its
sides, top or bottom; and that when
his fellow-workmen reached him he
was lighting his pipe with his can
die, which he had held in his hand
and which was not extinguished
during the descent. The investi-
eating committee reported fayora-
bly, on the mans application for
admission, because they thought
that was something like a reasona-
BILE lie. By rule Of the club no
member is allowed to tell a lie
which might not have been true
had such an occurrence taken
place.

fact, however, it was only right for
them to recollect also that there was
no fanatical belief in the abstract
principles of monarchy in this coun-
try. Hear, hear. The doctrine
of divine right was killed on the
scaffold with King Charles,and went
out with the commonwealth. The
people of the country supported the
monarchy because they knew from
experience that they enjoyed under
its rule as large an amount of well
ordered liberty as any other people
in the world. The country, under
its guidance, had been prosperous
and the people comparatively con-
tented and happy. But if there
was any attempt to establish a
species Of scholastic empire, to
drag into our constitution the
forms and principles of imperial
ism, honorable gentlemen opposite
would soon find that the supersti-
ton of royalty had no real hold on
the people of this land"
In alluding to the above remarks
Mr.. Lowe, NJ. P, said in the course
of his trenchant speech f: "The
honorable gentleman spoke like an
honest Englishman, not only with
frankness and fairness, and carried
the house with him, and l hope we
shall often hear his voice raised
with similar manliness and similar
effect"

How They Dressed.

1t was amusing when the Prince
of Wales stepped out of the train,
says a London letter, to observe the
rush Of personal friends, by whom
he was instantly surrounded. 1t
had been arranged that there should
be an address read to him by the
municipal authorities, and the
Duke Of Buccleugh was there with
speech in hand. But it was with
some difficulty that the Duke of
Cambridge rescued the Prince from
the distinguished society which
clustered round him, and brought
him up to undergo the ceremony.
The Prince was in plain morning
dress-black frock coat, gray over
coat and silk hat; the Princess was
richly but quietly dressed in walk
ing dress, and the two little boys,
in high glee, with laughing faces,
and dressed in plain sailor suits,
with straw hats, sat on the back
seat of the carriage, enjoying the
scene immensely. The three little
girls, also in a sort of nautical cos
tune, with open eyes and some
what grave expression, as if o.
amusement struggling with wonder
and a scene Of novel excitement
followed.
