An Old Homestead's Old Furniture.

An auction took place at the old
Brown homestead in the town of
Lincoln, Mass, Tuesday, when varie-
ty of old furniture and other house
hold goods were disposed Of The house
of three rooms, built by Benjamin
Brown in 1880, is almost as he left ii,
save that its rotting stills and moss-grown
roof-form portion Of quaint, rambling,
odd-looking mansion of 33 rooms and
closets, which five generations of de-
scendants have grated on to it. Among
the articles sold was q little table brought
over by Capt. Abram Brown in 1880. 1t
sold for So, and Mr. w. e. Baker, of
Wellesley, who came late, vainly offer
ed the purchaser $15 for it. From an
other table of good English oak brought
over in the same ship, two rickety otto
man frames had been made, and these
Mr. Baker got for ST. For two cushion
ed chairs with straight high backs and a
generally uncomfortable look, he paid
S12; and for two others equally ancient,
homely, and useless he gave SO. Mr..
Baker was liberal buyer, his bill for
oddities and antiquities amounting to
between 5000 and $500. Most of the
nondescript stuff and a variety of the
modern fixings went at small prices to
general buyers. Many of the really
valuable keepsakes were taken by repre-
sentatives of the Browns, and set of
brass andirons, with accompanying
shovel, tongs, &C., were taken for Judge
Hoar at $40. A massive eight-day clock
brought $50, and another of similar ap-
pearance, offered much later, was sold at
$1.75. sra.fang,f

to the hat-rack, and aiming a terrible
blow at the light he brought the um-
brella down. He missed and smashed
his Sunday hat into chaos. He took
aim again and caught the umbrella In
the lamp overhead, bringing IL down
with crash. Then he tried third
time and plunged the ferrule of the
umbrella through the mirror, smashing
1t to atoms; he felt exultant for a
moment as the light disappeared from
his vision, but he was perplexed to find
there was another light somewhere. So
he sat down on the stairs and remark

Then Potts took off his hat to scratch
his head, in the hope that he might
scare up an idea, and the truth flashed
upon him. Gazing at the lamp for a
moment, until he drank in full con-
ception of the trouble it had caused
him, he suddenly smashed it down on
the floor in a rage, and extinguished it
after covering two yards of carpet with
grease. Then he went to bed, and in
the morning Mrs. Potts informed him
that some Of those horrible miners had
broken into the house the night before
and left one of their hats with lamp
Potts turned over in bed SO that she
could not see his face, and said if the
stern hand of the law wasn't laid upon
those ruffians soon, nobody's life would
be safe.

Good Eyes.

Half dozen men staying at the West
End Hotel, Long Branch, had left their
beds soon after dawn, and were sporting
in the surf in the state of nature, never
suspecting that they would be seen by
any woman. 1t seems, however, that
young couple, who were in love with
one another-when young folks get up
very early it is sure sign that they are
smitten-had risen about o'clock, with
the intent of taking long stroll before
breakfast, fancying they could not see
enough of one another in any ordinary
day. They were walking slowly and
sentimentally along the bluff, not far
from the hotel, when he perceived the
men bathing. Passion could not ex-
tinguish his sense of humor, and SO he
said to his fair companion, with show
of indignation, directing his gaze
towards the masculine plungers;
1T is shame that women should eS-
pose themselves so in public" .e..,
OF course his companion, resenting
the imputation upon her sex, replied,
with earnestness and intensity:
"They are not womenl"
T" Oh, aren't they, indeed s'' inquired
the wag, adding, Well, 1 suppose your
eyes are better than mine" The maid
ems rising blush Immediately indicated
consciousness that she had fallen into
thetrap so adroitly prepared for her.

POTTS GETS ASTONISHED.

ONE NIGHT during the recent
" troubles in the Pennsylvania coal
regions, Judge Potts brother, Thomas
Potts, was round at meeting of mine
owners, and after the adjournment he
stepped into a tavern. While there he
met some friends, and in the course of
an hour or two he got very intoxicated.
On his way home he lost his hat, and a
miner, who knew him, feeling compass
sion for him, clapped on his head q
miners hat; and in order to make the
dark street look brigher, he lighted the
lamp in front of the hat. When Potts
reached the house his wife had gone to
bed and the lights were out; but Potts
felt certain the lamp was burning in the
hall, but he couldn't for the life of him
tell where it was.
He looked at the regular lamp, and it
seemed to be out; then hunted in every
direction for the light, but he was un-
able to find it, although it seemed to
shine brightly wherever he went
Presently he happened to stop in front
of the mirror in the hat-rack, and then
he saw precisely where the light was.
After brief objurgation upon Mrs.
Potts for leaving a light burning in such
a place, he went up to the mirror and
tried to blow it out. He blew and blew,
but somehow the fame burned as steadi-
ly as before.
"That," said Potts, " is the most ex-
traor'nary lamps ever been my nisfor-
tune t. encounter" nl
Then he took off his coat, and holding
it in front of him, crept cautiously up
to the mirror and tried to crush the
coat over the lamp, which still burned
brightly.
He said:

After spending a few days in New
York to complete the necessary arrange
ments, I again strapped over my shoul-
der the little travelling bag that had
been so faithful a companion during my
ramblein the Old World, and reached
the ferry in time to take the 4 O'Clock
boat for Jersey City, on the morning of
August %. The night had been rainy
and the pilot went feeling his way
through the thick fog that hung over
the bay, liable at any moment to have
his frail craft dashed into splinters by
the staunch vessels coming up from the
sea, and which have the right of way
1 could but think how typical this all
was of the journey 1 was about under
taking. How many dangers 1 must
pass ere should reach the other shore
by the Pacific, or whether should ever
live to reach 1t at all or not. All seemed
dark and gloomy before me. The few
friends who had followed me to the fer
ry to see me launch off into this gloomy
darkness, had warned me again and
again that l was undertaking witless
job, If not an utter impossibility, and
even the kind editor of the World gave
me whole column of advice ,counseling
me to turn back after my first days
tramp, and that could see and learn
more by walking fifty days around New
York than would by pegging across
the continent on foot.
If any one be curious to know why |
adopted this mode of travelling, my
answer Is, because it is the only way one
can study country and its people. A
horse or two, with comfortable car
riage, would no doubt. be q conven-
ience, but as the crusty old New Eng
land farmer used to tell me, when /
asked for horse to ride into town, that
"them's han't got horses must go
afoot." have no horses; and as l can
see no crime in young man walking
quietly through one or more countries,
because he prefers that mode of studying,
to being housed up inside the cold stone
walls of a college, or because he cannot
afford to ride, l do not see why the
managers of the public press should
make such powwow about it. I pay
for all the shoe leather wear and all
the bread at.and raise corns and blis-
ters on no ones feet but my own. am
walking on no wager; | am no jockey
walker am not walking "on time. I"
l Intend to reach San Francisco in one
hundred and fifty days from the time 1
left New York. Yet, if find it better
for me to spend two or three hundred
days, on the way, shall do SO. 1 shall
walk as far as 1 please in day, and rest
when get tired, if can find a clean
dry place to lie down.
In my next, L will try to give you
something of what have seen, heard
and done, since the pilot put me safely
on Jersey soil.

Church Architectural Terms.

A church or cathedral is comm My
built in the form of cross, having
tower, lantern, or spire, erected at the
place of intersection. The part Of the
cross situated toward the west is called
the nave. The opposite or eastern part
is called the choir, and within this is the
chancel. The transverse portion, form
ing the arms of the cross, is called the
transept. Any high building erected
above the roof is called a steeple; if
square-topped, it is a tower; if long and
acute, spire; and if short and light,
lantern. Towers of great height in pro-
portion to their diameter are called tur-
rets. The walls of Gothic churches are
supported on the outside by lateral pro-
iections, extending from top to bottom,
at the corners, and between the windows.
These are called buttresses, and they
are necessary to prevent the walls from
spreading under the enormous weight
of the roofs. On the tops of the but
tresses, and elsewhere, are slender pyr-
amidical structures or spires, called PIN
nacles. These are Ornamented on their
sides with rows of projections, appear
ing like leaves or buds, which are named
crockets. The summit, or upper edge
of a wall, if straight, is called a parapet;
if indented, battlement. Gothic win.
dows were commonly crowned with an
acute arch They were long and mar
row, or, if wide, were divided into per-
pendicular lights by mullions. The lat
eral spaces on the upper and outside of
the arch are called squandrells; and the
ornaments on the top, collectively taken,
are the tracery. An oriel, or baywin
dow, is projecting window. A wheel,
or rose window, is large and circular.
A corbel is bracket, or short projec-
ton from the wall, serving to sustain a
statue, or the springing of an. arch.
Gothic pillars or columns are usually
clustered; appearing as if a number
were bound together. The single shafts,
thus connected, areealled boltels. They
are confined chiefly to the inside of build
ings, and never support any thing like
an entablature. Their use is to aid in
sustaining the vaults under the roof,
which rests upon them at springing
points. Gothic walls intersect each 9th
er, forming angles called groins The
parts which are thrown out of the per-
pendicular, to assist in forming them,
are the pedentives. The ornamented
edge of the groined vaults, extending
diagonally, like an arch, from one sup
port to another, is called the ogiye
The Gothic term gable indicates the
erect end of roof, and answers to the
Grecian pediment, but is more acute
