question and doubt their veracity and integrity

vertlsed. Does il necessarily follow that they
are inferior in make, and less accurate than

FOX THE YOUNG PEOPLE.

What the sparrow sang
Chirrup up, ohirrup up, chirrup up,
What beautiful day 10 be surel
Just the weather TO hy;
Little matching, good bye,
I'm on for bright early tour.
How the warm summer sun softly shines.
And how thankful and happy ami
That no barred cage Of gold
My unfettered wings hold;
I'm sparrow, bird Of the sky.
Mr.. Bulhnch at his morning meal,
In his gayly decked palace see;
Oh, no, thank you, my dear,
Tn in very great fear
Prison food with my health won't agree
Sir Canary, you trill it quite neat,
In your pretty pagoda of red;
But I'd much rather be
Up on high tree, quite free,
And chirruping over your head
VIVA. ? you pity me out in the wind
At the mercy Of storm and Of rain,
And you boast of your life
Without care, without strife,
And mistress to ease all your pain
All, you know only half of lifs's joys,
1 assure you, you poor little things;
In your grandeur and pride
You sit lonely; beside
Mea sparrow mate sings!
We've a wooded and spacious estate,
Where we live without locks, bars, or laws,
And our tiny brown nest
Is a haven Of rest,
Where we care not for worldly applause.
We twitter and chatter all day,
And we're happier far so, It's true;
What are riches and rank
Without love2 but blank
All, It's I who can now pity you.

The Story of Mushka. "the Mou.e.,,

Aho CtoEJ VI MuSnkas Lne MOuaF.O
Some Hindoo merchants were chat
ting about trade and its chances, when
one remarked that there was nothing
remarkable In amassiug wealth when one
started with sufficient capital, and then
went on to say that he had done pretty
well, although he had set out with very
little.
"My father" said he, "died before
my birth, and ere long designing rela-
tives had despoiled my mother of all she
possessed. She sought shelter with a
female friend nearly as poor as herself
In was IL her house that I was born.
We lived for long time on the charity
of others; but when began to grow up
my mother, Notwithstanding her poverty,
managed to procure me a little tuition.
When 1 could read, write and cipher,
she said to me:
''You are the son of merchant. You
must, therefore, begin to get some
knowledge of trade. Go and see the
money changer, Visikala; he is the rich
est business man in town, and know
that he likes to advance funds to poor
young men who are the sons of mer-
chants and of pure race. Ask him to
give you loan."
went to the money-changer, but it
was only to hear him reply with disdain
to me, the son of a merchant:
'You see that dead mouse lying there
on the ground? Well, sharp fellow
might make fortune with no other start
than that. Now, if / were to lend YOU
round sum fear that T should have to
wait long time for the interest. Per-
haps you could not even calculate it."
raised my eyes proudly to the face of
the money changer =" take the
mouse" said /; sit is capital that you
lend me-" And, after having signed a
receipt, went my way with the mouse,
while the old usurer laughed heartily at
the sorry figure cut Well, exchang-
ed the mouse for two. handfuls of peas,
which the storekeeper gave me, as he
wanted it for his cat. peeled the peas
nicely, and taking jug of water went
outside of the city and sat down in the
shade on the roadside. Some woodcut-
ters came along, very thirsty and tired,
and L politely offered them the fresh
water and peas. Each of them in return
give me few little fagots of wood.
which I took on my back and went and
sold in the market-place. With the
money l got for them I bought more
peas, and the next day did over again
what L had done that day. Thus [
perservered for a long time, until had
got together little capital. Then I
bought for three days in succession all
the wood that the men brought in.
Suddenly there came on a heavy rain
season that no one had expected. and
the conveyance of wood became impossi
BILE. Then sold the stock I had at an
advance and kept few cords for myself.
With the proceeds I started small
shop, managed my affairs discreetly. and
grew rich. Then 1 had mouse Of gold
manufactured, and sent to the money
changer, Visikala, as reimbursement OF
his loan. he in return gave me his
daughter in marriage, and now I am
known by the name Of Mushka, or the
Mouse. SO you see made fortune
out of little. I"

There is nothing so dear as cheap medicine

Buy Sheridan's Cavalry Condition Powders and

Made Happy.

On last Tuesday evening q LARGE
number OF their friends gathered
at Mrs. Canadians residence to
witness the marriage ceremony be-
tween Mr.. j. '. Lesase, of Baton
Rouge, and Miss Otelia Carnahap
OF Rapides. After the cermony and
Inc usual signing of documents, an
invitation was extended the guests
to partake OF the elegant and boun-
tiiui supper provided. The groom
led the way, with his blusbipc
bride looking as beautiful as only
brides can look, and was followed
by the walters and guests in close
order. When the good things had
been fully discussed and the health
of the happy couple offered in Il
beaker OF generous wine, the way
was cleared for a dance. Music of
TN inspiring nature soon called
out the dancers, aud III very few
minutes the mazes of the cotilion
were being unrAvelled. The wee
hours OF the morning found them
chasing the hours with flying feet,
when 1t was announced that the
steamboat Bart Able was in sight.
Everything stopped to see the two
principals oI the occasion yet on
the boat and to wish them .'bon

adieu, Mr.. Lesage protested that
The dance should not stop, and as
the assemblage was not ayerse at
