WHAT They SAID CT THEIR Wives

WHAT THEY SAID CT THEIR WIVES
Gladstone's tenants at Hawarden, af
ter receiving prizes, short time
since, from Mrs. Gladstone's hands,
gave her vote Of thanks. The ex.
premier, rising with some hesitation,
said: Il was in hopes that my wife,
after all the compliments she has re-
ceived, would have risen to return
thanks. My opinion is, that she is
perfectly equal to it, and that it is a
very hard case for the husband, who
has not had this vote Of thanks, to be
called upon to do that for his wife
which she is fully able and competent
to do herself. However, there is moth
ing but submission, for a quiet life.
You are all aware Of that, and [ am
perfectly willing to do it." And he
did. But Lord Lyndhurst, when
placed in similar predicament, paid
his wife still more piquant compli-
ment. II wish you could induce lady
Lyndhurst to make speech" said the
brilliant Chief Baron, instead of ask
ing me, for if she would talk to you
as she does to me sometimes, she
would make you speech that you
would never forget"

"1F THEY'D ONLY BEEN MARRIED ON
THE SAME DAY."- Colville was
reading to his wife from newspaper.
on Saturday morning, when he struck
this paragraph: tMr. and Mrs. James
Clark, of Pulaski, New York, both
came into the world on the same day,
both died the same day, and both
were killed by cancer"
"Well, | delare! wasn't that singu-
lar?" observed Mrs. Colville. "Born
on the same day, died on the same
day, and with the same disease.
Now, if they'd only been married on
the same day the thing would have
been complete"
whats that?" suddenly interro-
gated Mr.. Colville, looking curiously
at her over the top Of the paper.
Il say" she replied, eff they'd both
been married on the-why, to be"

caught tie amused expression of his
face-"that isl wonder if thought

ADVICE TO GIRLS.-ln marrying, make
your own match; do not marry any
man to get rid of him, or to oblige
him or to save him. The man who
would go to destruction without you,
will be quite as likely to go with you,
and perhaps drag you along. DO not
marry in haste, lest you repent at
leisure; do not marry for home or a
living, when, by taking care of your
health, you can be strong enough to
earn your own living Do not place
yourself habitually in the society OF
any suitor until you decide the ques-
ton of marriage; human wills are
weak, and people often become bewll-
dered, and do not know their error un-
til it is too late. Get away from their
influence, settle your head, and make
up your mind alone. Do not rush
thoughtlessIy, hastily into welded
life contrary to the counsel of your
friends. Love can wait, that which
cannot wait is something of differ
ent character.

DIED FOR LovE.-Mr. King tells a
romantic little story in an article on
Spain in Lippincott: In Seville,
some years since, youth who had
been encouraged by one Of the fairest
of the Andalusian maidens, arrived
under her balcony and began, as he
had often hegun before, love ditty.
He looked up; no light burned in the
window; the street lamp only, flicker
ing family at the house corner, threw
a feeble CLEAN upon the image of the
Virgin in niche Of the wall. AS he
was wondering at his lack of success
the great oaken door of the mansion
creaked on its hinges and priest
came out. Go away, my son. he said
gently; the girl within is dead; she
died but a few moments ago. The
Andalusian broke his guitar, knelt a
moment before an image Of the Vir-
gin, then rushed away in the darkness,
and the next morning a boatman drew
his corpse out of the Guadalquiver."

friends has sent the original MSS. OF
the famous editorial on "Free Love,

can read it. This is the editorial in

CURIOUS ORIGIN OF WoRDs.-The de-
rivation of many words in common
use is curious. Probably few have an
idea whence come the word "tramway,'
by which the English denote a horse
car track. 1t is derived from the Sec
ond syllable of the name Outram.
The ancestor of Sir James Outram, a
very distinguished general, who died
a few months ago, took a leading part
in extending horse railroads for draw
ing coal, &C., and his roads were call
ed Outram ways, and gradually the
first syllable was dropped. An
other curious derivation is that of the
word "wallop," meaning to beat.
"Pll wallop you is still a frequent ex-
preston in rural England. 1t arises
from a complete naval victory of Ad-
miral Wallop, a member Of the very
ancient family Of which the Earl Of
Portsmouth-who also has the honor
to represent Sir Isaac Newton-is now
the head.

The MEDICINE OF SUNsHINE.-The
world wants more sunshine in its dis
position, in its business, in the chari-
ties, in its theology. For ten thou
sands of the aches and pains, and ir-
ritations of men and women, we rec
ommend sunshine. 1t soothes better
than morphine; it stimulates better
than champagne; it is the best plaster
for a wound. The good Samaritan
poured out into the fallen travellers
cash more of this than of wine and
oil. Florence Nightingale used in on
Crimean battle fields. Take it into all
the alleys, on board all the ships, by
all the sick beds. Not phial full,
not cup full not decanter full, but
a soul full. 1t is good for spleen, for
liver complaint, for neuralgia, for
rheumatism, for falling fortunes, for
melancholy. We suspect that heaven
itself is only more sunshine.

The yearly camp-meetings Of the
Methodists have already commenced
at the West; and active preparations
are being made to convene the meet
ings in the New England States.
There will be nearly one hundred
gatherings of this kind, tn the pres
ent year; and as there is considera-
BILE religious interest prevailing, it is
evident that crowds of people will be
eager to attend them.
The Free Methodists, who pretend
to be the exact followers of the modes
of worship which were practiced by
Wesley, have been conducting an
immensely attended camp-meeting
at Ovid, Michigan. They declare
themselves to be believers in modern
miracles, and are confident that their
clergeymen have the ability to per-
form them. They have faith in what
is termed "bodily exercise" by which
preacher will not. unfrequently act
as ii lie were seized with violent sick
ness, while delivering the gospel
message. Rev. j. s. Inship, editor
of the Methodist Standard, thinks
that the reason why a better number
of young people do not join this pc
culiar sect, is on account of their Sc
we're style of dress. According to
their doctrines, it is the height of
wickedness for protested Christian
to wear a single article of jewe,ry,
or an ornament of any sort. And
some of the more exacting, and con-
sentative among them, regard it as
sinful, even If they adorn themselves
with collar, and pair of cuffs !
In their meetings, it is said that every
church member has a right to speak ;
and thus, the gatherings, even OH the
Sabbath. are very long and weari-
some.

Silver, is one of the political oues-
tons, about which there is much dis.
'cussion, and difference of opinion,
many taking the ground that it should
be put on the same basis as gold, and
should be made legal tender in pay
ing government dues, and also its
bonds. Others take another view of
the question, that silver is too plenty
and therefore has not the natural
value of gold. One thing the Gov
eminent is doing, that effects us al
ready, they are calling in the small
bills, as those of a. dollar value, and
a portion of fractional currency, so as
to compel the people to use hard
money, which of course is silver, and
thus distribute it through the country.
There is vast amount of silver TAX.
,eh from the earth yearly, and it is be-
coming Troublesome question to the
owners, what to do with it. LARGE
quantities are shipped direct from the
mines In the Rocky Mountains, to
foreign countries. There is mnch
more dug from the earth than can be
coined for money, and it bids fair to
bea troublesome, political question
among the civilized nations. 1t is
said that silver mines never give out
that the oldest mines are now being
worked as successfully as ever, and il
this is true, with all the newly dis
covered mines we shall have silver Sc
plenty that all may have service o
their own, to say nothing of an abun
dence of money.

The evils and abuses of Roman
Catholicism Is plainly seen in the re-
cent sad calamity which has just hap
pened in Montreal, on the Orange.
mems day. If the time has come
when Christian denomination cannot
celeb ate holiday, and parade the
streets as we would on holiday, in a
perfectly respectable manner, without
being attacked by a mob OF foreign
Catholics, who have no regard for
themselves, or for the community in
which they reside, and as ignorant
and lawless as any other renegade, we
think it is high time that something
was done t. preserve peace and rights
Of the mole respectable clas. of society.
And another fact is TO be regretted
and that is, that the mean, nlrrow
minded, contemplate excuse of n
man, who happens to hold the Mayors
chair, and who obtained his election.
by the votes of the low miserable,
Ignorant Catholics, should stand
back, and, even when askod. never
furnish protection To The .Orangemen,
Just because he was sympathizer of
the merciless- nnprincipled mob. The
comparison between the conduct of
the mayor OF Montreal and that of
Mayor Tewksbury of Lawrence.
Mass, under the same circumstances
is noticeable. The former, played the
part Of a sneak ind coward, by not
even trying to protect the Orangemcn,
and save the blood shed of his people,
which fact will loom up most conspic-
uously upon the pages of the future
history Of Montreal, as a shameful
AMI disgraceful affair. The latter,
nnder the same circumstances two
years ago, in the City of Lawrence,
Mass, played the par: ola man. a
hero and a benefactor, by doing all in
his power to stay the anger of the
lawless mob Of Catholics, and even
went as far as to march at the head
ofthe procession, and expose himself
to the merciless acts of the vagerbonds
that constituted the mob. Such an
event as that in Montreal is one that
can never be overlooked, and as long
as Montreal stands. the stains of the
affair will remain upon her.
