where its beauties were pointed out, and
duly appreciated by Mrs. Flint, whose adj
nliration was about ending in a proposal,
when Mr.. Flint returned from giving his
directions about the care Of the horses
The Deacon praised the clock; he, too,
thought it was handsome one. But the
Deacon was Il prudent man; he had a
watch, he was sorry, but he had no use
for clock. Il guess you're in the wrong
furrow this time, Deacon; it amt for
sale,' said Mr.. Slick; 'and if it was, I
reckon neighbor Steel's wife would have
it, TOR she gives me no peace about it.
Mrs. Flint said that Mr.. Steele had
enough to do, poor man, to pay his inter-
est, without buying clocks for his wife
It's no consarn of mine,' said Mr.. Slick,
as long as he pays me, how much he has
to do; but guess don't want to sell it,;
and besides, it comes too high; that clock
can't be made at Rhode Island under
forty dollars. Why, it amt possible! )
said the matchmaker in apparent surprise,
looking at his watch, why, as am alive,
it is four o'clock, and if haven't been
two hours here-how on airth shall I
reach River Philip tonight? I'll tell you
what, Mrs. Flint, I'll leave the clock in
your care till return on my way to the
States-Ill set it agoin, and put it to the
right time
AS soon as this operation was performed
he delivered the key to the Deacon with
a sort Of serio-comic injunction to wind up
the clock every Saturday night, which
Mrs. Flint said she would take care should
be done, and promised to remind her
husband of it in case he should chance to
forget it.
"'That, said the clockmaker, as soon as
we were mounted, that is what I call
human natur! Now, that clock is sold
for forty dollars-it cost me six dollars
and fifty cents. Mrs. Flint will never
let Mrs. Steele have the refusal-nor will
the Deacon learn, until 1 call for the
clock, that having once INDUCED in the
use of superAuity, il is difficult to give
it up. We can do without any article Of
luxury we have never had, but when
once obtained, it is not human natur to
give it up voluntarily. Of 5000 sold by
myself and partners in this province, 49,
600 were left in this way, and only ten
clocks were ever returned-when we
called for them they invariably bought
them. We trust to soft sawder to get them
into a house, and to human natur that
they never come out of it."

owe have slept too long," then spoke
Dame Nature, briskly. "Let us quickly
make some warm overcoats for the shiv-
ering seedlings below"
Very orderly are the workings of Dame
Natures household. A message to the
winds, and clouds came back, as though
ill-pleased at the dissection in store. And
the whole army went to work vigorously,
cutting and tearing, and hurting down
garments soft as elder down, and numer-
GUS enough to supply the whole earth.
So little No-Name was assigned the
browning work. With paint-pot and
brush, she waited in mid-air, and touch
ing each deity as it passed, changed
them to pearly white.
Thus, dainty and pure, the precious
coats came down to earth, folding over
the motherless seeds; no softer blanket
in an infants cradle, no wool warmer and
more protective in any great-coat that's
made. And the seedlings, far and wide,
snuggled down contentedly, and sang for
jOy.

A Woman Still.

From the Cleveland Leader.
A young woman, with draggled dress
and flushed face, with her hair loose
over her shoulders, and a hard look in
her eyes, followed burly officer into the
Central station just as the clock was on
the stroke of midnight.
"What's the matter here?" queried the
lieutenant, looking up as the ill-mated
couple came in.
"Same old CHARGE" said the officer
" she's been raising Cain around the hay
market"
"You bet your boots have" said the
girl, with a hoarse laugh that showed
there was whisky behind it. III just give
'em &C. good as they sent.''
They were leading her into the record
ing room, when she stopped at the door
opening into the captains Office.
"Whose kid is that?" she asked.
"That? Oh, one that was picked up
on the street-lost by somebody"
"Lost, is he? Well, I've found him.
Let me alone, will you'll"
She pulled away from the officer, and
in moment was on the lounge with the
child in her arms, her painted cheeks
pressed close to the tear-stains left on the
little fellows face when he had cried him.
self to sleep. Her hair hung in veil be-
fore them, and hid the guilty and inno-
cent alike from sight.

INJURED, after the hush Of a moment, "but
he died. That was so long ago that
thought I had forgotten it-there has
been so much happening since-so much
I wish to God had never happened"
A moment longer and she looked up
as sober as mother by the hearthstone.
MAY take him in the cell with me?"
she asked in low and gentle voice.
They said she might, and the poor, for
saken woman sat down on the stone
bench with the sleeping child held close
to her bosom. The tears that fell from
her eyes were as balm to her bruised
heart, and the little one lifted her soul to
purer heights than it had known for
many, many weary days in the past.

Turk and Locomotive.

The Turks are superstitious, believing
in genii and demons, to which they attrib-
ute any physical effect which passes their
comprehension. An English engineer,
engaged in building a railway in Bulga-
ria, thus describes the effect of the first
locomotive in that country:
We often used to say, writes MIR. Bark
ley, "Won't the locomotive astonish the
Turks when it first begins to turn?''
At last the day arrived, and, as we
went up and down the first few miles,
whistling loudly, we cast our eyes up to
the town above to see the crowds rush
out. Twenty or thirty slipshod rayahs
came Longing out, and a few Turkish
children, but not one full-grown Turk,
and those we passed hardly looked at the
train, and showed no establishment. At
ter the trains had been running a month,
I asked my servant Mustapha what he
thought of it. He answered.:
"Tehellaby, have not seen it; am
man and don't go running after sights
like child"
"Man or child, Mustapha, if you don't
go and see it tomorrow, I will make you
eat pork, for won't live with such an
uninteresting fool.''
He did 90 and look next day, and not
only that, but afterward, over cup of
coffee at the khan, listened to lecture
on steam engines, delivered by Turk
who quite understood them.
"Ihey may be very fine things, Tehel-
laby, and you English may make them
useful; but God defend a Mussulman
from having anything to do with them.
We don't like demons and their works,
even if we could catch one, and are quite
content with the means OF locomotion we
now possess. Nothing can equal horse,
and a bullock cart is enough for any
one."
"What do you mean about demons?" I
asked.
"Why, Tehellaby, is it not fact, as
the lecturer told us, that in England you
trap a strong young demon, and shut him
up in that great tirebox on wheels, where
you induce them to turn crank connect
ed with the wheels, and pay him for do
ing so by giving him cold water to allay
his tOrture3!'
afterward talked to lots of villagers
about this, and found the demon theory
had taken deep root, and often I have
seen man stripped. securing and rub
bing at his garments because drop of
water from a passing locomotive had
fellen on them, which he believed to have
been produced by the demon splitting.

had overheard the remark, and felt sorry

had overheard the remark, and felt sorry
for his embarrassment. D. stripped
off those pants, and, after much solicita-
ton, accepted the loan of another pair
from his new-found friend, and after
some hesitation, returned to the ball room,
and soon forgot his troubles in the smiles
of the company of the fair dancers. A
polka was called on. He was on the
floor with the belle of the evening, skip
ping and hopping as gracefully as that
celebrating dance would allow, until out
of breath, he promenaded with his fair
partner on his arm, in close proximity to
the owner Of the breeches, who had been
looking on, in evident delight at the aban-
don of the wearer, and as he came by him
he gave vent to his pleasure by slapping
D. on the back and exclaiming:
eco it, old fellow; burst h-I out
of the breeches if you want to; don't
care a cent as long as you enjoy your
SELF
D dropped his partner and rushed
to the depot just in time to catch the
train.

Death of the Last Survivor OF the Cato
Street Conspiracy

The last survivor of the Cato Street
Conspiracy-one Matthew Booth-died a
few days ago in the Leeds Workhouse
To what strange social world does this
announcement carry us! George the Nv.
had not quite month exchanged the re-
gency for the throne; the nation was
troubled to the core by the Kings accusa-
tons against his wife, and by the rcso-
lutte opposition Of the government, in
which Lord Castlereagh exercised para
mount influence, to every proposal of po-
litical reform.
A peaceful meeting at Manchester in
the previous summer had been dispersed
by dragons. The Corn Laws prohibiting
the import of grain had raised the cost Of
wheat to famine prices, and the Napo-
leonic wars, which had lasted twenty
years, had left the usual legacy of wars,
ural under greatly increased burden of
taxation.
At this juncture Thistlewood and his
twenty three associates resolved to imi-
tate Guy Fawkes' intention, but, instead
of blowing up the Parliament Houses,
they determined on assassinating the
Ministers as they sat at dinner, the guests
of the Earl of narrowly, in Grosvenor
Square. The hope was that once the
Ministry were out of the way, reform
government would be established by the
people. But traitors in the camp of cont
pirators acquainted the government with
all the plot. On the day of the dinner
party, February 23d, the conspirators
had assembled in loft over stable in
Cato street (now Flower street,, Edgware
Road, and were arming when the police
entered. =,
In the scuff1e most of the conspirators
escaped, but Thistlewood was taken the
next morning, and in the following May
he and four Of his companions were
hanged at the old Bailey. They were the
last prisoners confined in the Tower. Of
the remainder five were transported, and
the man now deceased, who has survived
his crime for forty-six years, either elud-
ed the vigilance of the police or was
deemed too young and obscure to be
worth taking. During his long after life
he has seen more than all which his fell
lows sought accomplished by the consti-
tutional changes, amounting almost to
revolutions, which have been wrought.
The England of to-day is scarcely more
unlike Turkey than it is unlike the Eng

Had a Right to Laugh.

There is legend affirming that one
day, nearly hundred years ago, the
snow was nearly seven feet deep in the
streets of Detroit On that day not
woman was seen down town, but next
day, when the snow had settled a
foot or two, they were abroad as usual
They were out yesterday wading through
the slush and jumping the pools,
and one of them fell "kersplash -
as she passed the Soldiers Monument.
A man, standing about thirty feet away,
began laughing uproarously. He got
red in the face, tears came in his eyes, and
his hat fell off, as he laughed and cried
out:
"Went right down like bag of sand
slush foot deep, starched up to kill
never saw anybody look so cheap-oh!
no! no! hot"
You are no gentleman, sir!" ex-
claimed man who had witnessed the
mishap.
"Can't help that-ha! ha ha no ! no!
laughed the other, bending almost
double.
"You haven't the first instincts of gen.
tleman, sir" said the other, growing very
mad.
II know it, but oh! no! ho! screamed
the other. II know just how she felt as
she went down carrying all that style, and
I, ha! ha!ha!"
II don't see anything so funny about
it." tyrowled the other.
"No, you don't, but IL" and he
hung to lamp post and laughed until
his knees weakened. When he re-
covered his breath he explained to the
crowd:
cit was my wife, you see; she probably
wanted pair of shoe strings or two cents
worth of silk twist, and it took her three
hours to curl, and twist, and powder, and
fix up to come down here to wade around.
Then to fall flat, with all her best duds
on, and to be hel ped up by a rag buyer,
and to hear the boys yell out, why, it just
takes all the-ho no muscle right-ha!
