mood Of blood-thirstiness, but rs matter O

felt, though five revolver shots were required
to do the business. Last evening Deuisor
fractured his rod IN two places, but preserved 8
good degree OF equanimty over the catastrophe
II any person thinks it is not strain on the
temper to break rod, or fling the hackle into q
limb. or tangle or kink his o-eilk line, OF foul
It with the other fellows line, just when the
sport Is in full play, and the fish lyclicst on
tue Jump, he knows little OF an angler's mis-
haps and trals or OF the ills troutcr is heir to-.
no one has more frequent or better occasion
for the exercise OF all tho Christianity patience
and forbcarance in him than each OF the two
men In canoe cracking whips Of rod and line
IN trout stream. 1t lisa tolcrably well-discp-
lined temper that does not, at such provoking
contrctcmps, gush into trinc, at least Of the
swearing that the army in Flanders did. Wal
toms advice to anglers is, to BE patient, and
forbcar swearing, lest they be heard ana catch
no fish," The teaching is good, but the lesson
is not invariably needed. Pratt and Denison
tinkercd and menGled the broken rod so well
they declared it was better than before, and I
just to give them job OF mendng.
Reluctantly VIC struck the tents and left this

went on our downward way, }lalting at various
! points to fish. The trout snapped bl1skly, and
at more than one Of our stoppaggs it kept us
! busy TO unhook our captures; and the sport was
| an tmbarras du 7:ichcsscy, OF which the most
ardent Of the party began to tire. In the hour
! fshings the party took 130 Some Of these
! trout are voracious. Que TINT Pratt caught had
been chewing cud OF fish, for smaller one
was in his throat not wholly swallowed. Along
seemed nearly atl to have fallen or grown into
