He informed me that, while making one

and inquired why he was carving that
brick, and on his giving her the reasons
he received dollar. The object soon
became known, for as he passed the
houses small sums were given to him by
different persons, and he was we'll salts

informed me that he had been sent to
German, who kept pork establishment
IN Third avenue, and who wanted clerk
to keep his books. He was to get SIS a
week if his work proved satisfactory, and
his duties began on the following day.
Before leaving me he asked for the BRICK

Come Herod, my hound from the strangers
Old friend must wander the world once
more! "a
Forno one now liveth to welcome us back;
So, come!--let us speed on our fated track
What matter the region-what matter the

So you and Il travel, till death together?
And in death why, g on there | may still be
BY the side of my beautiful black bloodhound.
We've traversed the desert, we've traye the

eagles be;
Seen Tartar, and Arab, and swart Hindoo;
(How thou pull DIST down the deer in those
skies of blue;)
No Joy did divide us; no peril could part
The man from his friend OF the noble heart;
Ay, his friend; for where, where shall there
ever be found
A friend like his resolute, fond bloodhound?
What, Herod, old hound! dost remember the
day
When fronted the wolves like stag at bay :?
When downward they galloped to where we
stood, st@
Whilst staggered with fear in the dark pine
Dost remember their howlings? their horrible
speed?
God, God! how prayed for friend in need!

Apples that are slight y unsound can be
made into jelly, and my recipe is as fol-
lows: After cutting out the imperfect
parts, wash the apples and quarter, with
out pairing or coring. Place in a por-
celaine kettle, and to four quarts of cut
apr, add a little less than one quart Of
cold water. Cook slowly until soft but
not broken. Turn into jelly bag that
has just been wrung out Of hot water, and
hang up to drain. Strain the juice again
to make the jelly clear. Boil ten min
.utes skim, then add the sugar, one pound
to a pint Of juice, and boil twenty min
utes: Is the apples are not sour, the
jelly will seem thin, But in few days
will be solid, and of a fine amber color

The mules which pull the rock trains
are driven three or four tandem, each
having a torch upon its head, which
bobs up and down as they move along,
and they present very novel appearance
as seen from a distance in the darkness.
All the mules in the tunnel work eight
hour shifts, the same as the men. Not
withstanding this short duty, they
rapidly wear out, AID it is pity to see
them painting and blowing in the con
fined air, with perspiratioe streaming
from them.
The mules have a cloth fastened to
their brides, which is to put over one
eye before they emerge into daylight.
The cloth is removed as they enter the
tunnel on the return trip. The object is
to have them reserve one good eve, ex-
posed to daylight, is incapable Of seeing
anything for some time after entering
darkness. Whenever it is neglected to
bandage anti eye on the outside, the mule
staggers and stumbles about in the dark
ness, and refuses to go ahead.
The mules of course, all have their
names, and Jane, Nell, Fan, Tom. Bill,
Jack, Frank, are sure to be amongst the
lot. One mule has been facetiously
christened Susan B. Anthony They are
great favorites with the miners, especially
when underground, and they answer the
call Of their names, like pet dogs; and
strange to say in that heated atmosphere,
they soon lose their proverbial tendency
for kicking. The ariver generally stands
on a small platform in the rear Of the
first car, and sinceh he could not reach the
mules, driven in tandem, with whip, he
SHES small stones with the greatest dex-
telity, of which he has good supply be-
fore him.
Two trains generally follow, one be-
hind the other, for should an accident
happen from caves, breaking of wheels,
or of cars getting off the track, one driver
assists the other in overcoming the diff
Guilty.
The most durable mules are those with
short legs, large bodies, compactly built,
and weighing about 900 pounds.
There are altogether about thirty mules
employed in the Sutro Tunnel, though
greater number is kept on hand.

All About a Brick.

To the Editor of the New York Evening Post
A well-known citizen living not many
blocks from Union Square relates an in
cident somewhat in this wise:
One bright morning in the month Of
November, some years ago, was pre-
pairing to go down town, when the ser
want informed me that.a man was waiting
at the front door to see me. 'sTell him
I'll be down in moment said l. On
going to the door man OF tall stature
and robust appearance, calling. me by
name, requested assistance, saying that
he had large family, a wife in delicate
health, and no means to procure food for
them. s'You appear to- be strong and
healthy; why don't you work2" asked L.
SIMPLY, sir. for the reason that cannot
procure work.
Not having work to give him, I
thought would test the sincerity of his
intentions ssIfI give yon work, what
pay do YOU want2n Anything, sir, you
choose to give me, SO long as I can OBJ.

arm, started him on his walk, and then
went down to my business.
Not having the least faith in the mans
promise, thought but little more of Ii,
yet as knew I should be back within
five hoursI determined to see If he per

AS I approached the corner of the street

Upon inquiring where the fire was, I was
informed that it was false. alarm, and
that what brought the people together
and occasioned the, agitation was the

1t Was Alive.


Hetwas rather an uncouth- looking in
dividual, and as he sauntered into the
store the crowd sitting on the barrels
winked at each other, and made remarks
about his person.
Where didit come from?" asked one,
pointing at him.
Somebody left the door open and it
blew in" said another.
81 don't think it's alive" said third.
"sTouch it and see, remarked fourth.
Yes, it's man see it move?" que
ried the first. All hands laughed bolster
ously.
I'm a poor man, and don't want to
have any trouble with anybody. I'm a
Christian, and don't believe in turmoil
and strife, and can't participate in. it. I
pray you, sworldl minded people, that
you will allow me to depart in peace,
said the new arrival.
One of the crowd, more daring than the
rest, hammered the mans hat down over
his eyes, ana another dabbed his nose
full of molasses from a5barrel standing
by.
Then the poor Christian took small
volume from his pocket, and began read
ing the Scriptures in drawing, sing
song tone.
While he was engaged at this, the
crowd played all sorts of tricks on him.
One put some eggs in his pocket, and an
other mashed them. Then the biggest
man in the house poured some oil on his
hat and lighted it. Then the clerk hit him
under the nose with Goldfish. Then that
man quietly put the little volume IN his
coat-tail pocket, and the clerk went head
first into the molasses barrel. When the
biggest man in the house picked himself
from under the counter, it was next to an
impossibility to guess where his nose left
off and where thescodfsh began
No. made work for the glazier as be
hita ventilator in the window. No. 9
Matched out half a barrel Of eggs, and No.
3 got up on the pie-shelf and stayed there
AS No. walked out Of the door on his
back he wondered how much it would
costto make him as good as new, and the
poor Christian man remarked:
The next time you folks pick me UP
for SLOUGH look out you ain in the
wrong pew. Good day, fellers.''
8 The clerk is waiting for them to come
round and settle for damage done, but
they must have forgotten where the place
is, as they pass right by without looking
In, and their bills remain unpaid.
