GOING COURTiNG.

One of the chief compensatilns of
woman'S life is found in the fact
that she diedn't have to ''go court
ing" 1t must be confessed that in
these days the modern belle does
not have 10 dress up in a stiff collar
and a pair of be OTIS a size too small
for her and walk up to the cannon'S
mouth of her inamoratO'S family,
consisting OF father, mother, grand
mother, maiden aunt, and per-
haps a dozen brothers aud sisters
and inquire in trembling voice
SIS Miss Arab2lla at hcme-?"
Whenever a man goes Accounting,
every body seems to know all about
il. His demeanor tells the obser-
want spectator the business lie is
intent upon. He might as well
placard himself, "I'm going court
ing" Everybody is cognizant OF it
and looks knowingly, and ask him
if 1.-THE Northern lights were bright
last night about one O'Clock, and
how the market is for kerosene at
Daddy Browns ?" and a score of
other questions out Of place.
We know a young man who is
deeply and we trust successfully en-
gagged in going com ting, and our
warmest sy.Npathies have been ex-
tended toward him. When Sunday
afternoon arrives it is plain that
something is about to happen. He
is tidgety and communicative
ard cannot sit in one place half a
minute at time he is continually
Interviewing his watch and CON par
ing it with TIE old eight-day, collin
Snapped clock in the corner. lie
looks in the glass frequently, and
draws his forward locks back and
then forward, and puts them down,
and is unsatisfied with the effect
throughout.
The smell of bay rum and berga-
mot is painfully apparent. When
he shakes his handkerchief, musk
is perceptible. Ii is boots shine like
mirrors, and there is a faint smell
of lcardamon seeds in his breath
when he yawns. He smootS his
budding moustache with affection
ate pats and feels his invisible side
whiskers continually to make sure
they are there, a fact which is not
esta )lished to outside observers by
sense Of sight. lie tries on all his
neckties without finding just the
thing he wants. Then he has
spasms OF brushing his coat, that
commence with violence and last un-
til one grows nervous for fear the
broadcloth will not be able to stand
the friction.
If spoken to suddenly he starts,
and bushes, and looks guilty as If
he were stealing something, and di-
rectly if one does not speak to him
he goes back to the delightful occu-
patton of staring at nothing and
waiting for the hour to peep around
to seven.-POrtlond Press.

WHAT / HAVE SEEN.

An old man of experience says :

yes, occasionally we engage In that
kind of business, What can we do

What is the matter with Patrick,
MADAME

'Thats bad. But 1 hardly think
that alone will be sufficient cause.
Have you no other cOmp,aint?'
'Indade have, sur: Paterlck bates

'Yes, yes, see, That adds cruelty
to drunkenness. But. madam, you do
not seem to suffer much in your ap-
pearance from Patrick's cruelty. I
think you must find stronger reason
before the Court will grant you a di-
vOrce.'
Well, sur, besides all that, I fear,
sur, that Pathrick isn't thrue to me-
'Ah! now, madam, you begin to talk
business. What reason have you for
thinking that Patrick is unfailhful 10
you?'
Well, sur, l may say that it's me-
self that has sthrong suspition that
Pathrick is not the father of me last

GRAINS Of GOLD.

As you cannot avoid your own COM
pany make it as good as possible.
Volatility of words is carelessncss in
actions. Words are the wings of &C.
ton.
He who is the most slow in making
q promise is the most faithful in the
performance Of it.
AS riches and fame forsake a man,
VIC discover him to be fool; but no.
body could find it out in his prosperi-
ty.
Trust him little who smilingly
praises all alike, him least who is cold
ly Indifferent TO all alike.
We should learn by reflection on the
misfortunes which have attended 9TH
ers, that there is nothing singular in
those which befall ourselves.
A more glorious victory cannot be
gained over another man than this,
that when the injury begins on his
part, the kindness should begin on
ours.
Too much reproach 'o'erleaps itself
and falls on t'other side,' Pricked up
too sharply, the delinquent. like a
goaded bull, grows sullen and savage,
and the persecution continuing, ends,
in rushing madly on the spear that
wounds him.
The motives of the best actions will
not bear too strict an inquiry. 1t is
allowed that the cause of most actlons,
good or bad, may be resolved into the
love of ourselves !; but the self-love OF
some men inclines them to please 9TH
ers, and the self-love Is wholly en-
ployed in pleasing ourselves. This
makes the great distinction between
virtue and vice.
Don't rob yonr nelghbor of his good
opinion of himself. Crush woman's
self esteem, and you make her cross
grained and snappIsh. Do the same
with a man and you only make him
lnorose. You may mean to create a
sweet, humble creature. but you1l
never do it. The people who think
best of themselves are apt TO be the

Chinaman seemed quite at home-in-
deed he appeared to feel rather pleas
ed with the novelty at the position in
which he SO unexpectedly found him
self. Had he been crushed to death
at the fret stroke of the pump. 1t
chanced. however, that the position he
occupied was about the only safe one
the whole length of the beam.
In vain Mr.. Golden called to the in
sane wretch TO get off the beam. He
seemed to enjoy the motion, and as
beam sawed the air he sat composedly
astride of it, his long tail swaying in
the air like pendulum.
The beams makes q momentry halt
at the end of each stroke. and during
one of theee Mr.. Golden took hold OF
the Chinaman and tried to get him
0 the perilous position, but the fellow
drew q double.edged knife, with
blade some twelve inches in length,
which he began whirling about his
head in q wild and threatening man
ner. The Chinaman all this time
spoke no Ineligible word, and Mr..
Golden knew not what to do with him,
and he was evidently insane from the
use or from the deprivation of opium.
Finally he got an iron rod, and with
the end of it tickled the Celestial gym
mast in the ribs, making it so unpleas-
ant for him that, after hacking the
iron for q time with his knife, he
presently got off the beam in about
the same way that he got on it.
He was backed out OF the works at
the end of the iron rod, seeming only
to have sense enough to move when
he received prod In the ribs. The
old Chinaman was in his stocking
feet-without shoes or hat-therefore,
1t is probable that he left one of the
opium dens in the Chinese quarter,
which is but a few rods from the shaft
and in sort Of opium trance or de-
lirum wandered into the works and
down to the engine-rOom, where he
gave Mr.. Golden such strange little
game
