Discovering a Criminal:
A MAN BETRAYED BY HIS OWN Curl

NAN BETRAYED BY HIS OWN CURIOSITY.
During the festival OF the ]'airam, an
inhabitant of the village of Funduclkli had
dressed his child, about two years old. in
a shawl and cap, ornamented with
pieces of gold, and entrusted it to slave,
who left it for moment seated in the
court Of the house.. On his return the
child was gone, and every search for ii
proved useless. The father applied to the
Chief of Police at Bagdad, entreating him
to inquire into the circumstance. This
officer reflected that the child could not
be carried tar, on account of his cries, and
therefore must have been taken by one of
the neighbors. He did not communicate
this idea to any body, but directed one of
his messengers to 60 to the village OF
Funduckli at the hour of prayer, to enter
the mosque, and summon the imam Ter
priest) to come Immediately to his ma
vaur. When the imam came to the pres
ence of the Chief of Police, he received a
positive injunction to come to him again
on the morrow, and give him the name of
the person who first came to inquire of
him the cause of his being sent tor to the
police Office. The Turks in general pay
little attention to the affairs Of others, not
even IN those of their priests, conse-
quently, on returning to the mosque one
man only came to him to ask the cause of
30 sudden a summons. The imam replied
it was only in relation to firman (decree)
which he was to have read, but which
was withdrawn. However, on being in
informed by the man of what had passed
the Oh eff Of the Police caused the inqulsi
tive:man to lie arrested, and discovered
the body of the child concealed under the
staircase of his house, and thus proved
that it was he who carried it off. He was
sentenced to be instantly beheaded.

Little Johnny on the OpoS>um.

If there is anything in names this
animal comes from Ireland, but them
that's here calls theirselts Jess Possums,
like they was natif born. Eussums has
a sharp nose and long, bald -heded tale
which is all ways cold, never mind the
wethcr. It's jess like their tales was dcd

The old ones has got tobacco pouch on
the outside of their stun,muckses, and
Wen the little ones is afraid they snuggles
in and don't carea copper wot becomes
Of their old mother which is outside.
When dog finds a possom and It cant

friten dog you never see too, but the
dog most.

Influence Of Flowers.

The pleasure of cultivating a flower
garden, and the particular love for its
products, are OF late growth in me, but I
confess it the more willingly because I
think it the result of increasing wisdom
rather than the folly Of age. 1t affords a
quiet amusement, full of subjects for OBJ
servatien and thought, and find pleas
ure in all the work. I love to dig in the
loose mold that seems to move almost as
if it We're alive. We should naturally
have liking for what we are made of
and for what is made of us, and can get
no where so near to ourselves as by con-
tact with the brown mold, that is ma
lures unspoiled and manufactured
material, alive with all the wonders of
creation. No laboratory can produce
such wonderful combinations as the
earth. 1t dissolves. absorbs and Durifes
all things. The Parsees who, in their
love and reverence Tor the earth, feared
to pollute it with any corruption, over
looked its most bencicent attribute It
takes into itself all corruption and returns
only purity and beauty. And for lit
tie work what great returns one
gets. I but give a little
seed and the small charity Of burial,
land it is not mournful funeral either
and am repaid not only with plenty of
flowers and seeds, but with the perpetual
pleasure of It's constant growth.
One must give care and companionship
to plants and flowers to learn their CRATE
full nature and feel their bcneticent in
auenccs. Their healing virtues are not
alone in their juices Their "sweet in
fuences" come nearer and stronger than
that of the Pleiades. They are unrivaled,
too, as friends and companions. Their
conversation is always in charity and
good sense. Spleen, egotism, envy are
never heard in a garden from anything
that grows out OF the ground. These are
noxious gases that flowers can't abide.
(are there people who can't succeed in
growing flowersO as a consequence they
are always agreeable companions; never
loud and disturbing; never cross and irri-
tating. Go into the garden weary, angry
or disappointed, and relief comes without
rest, or the nauseous dose Of rebuke or
coincidence. There is presence spirit
in the woods that becomes .domesticated
in the garden. The "soli:udc" Of the
garden is pleasing, because in reality it
is the choicest companionship. I would
not have statutes in a garden. The tinlld
sylvan spirits that mi ht hide behind a
rock or fountain, would fee from the
glare of cut marble. "- t.@e
Then, how many things little ground
will make room for. My gard IS scarce
four square rods, and yet 1t would make
a respectable catalogue TO name all the
plants in it. Almost all the countries of
earth have contributed toit; and though
I think that Flora has been about equally
generous to all parts of the world, it lie q

A Fatal Explosion.

That it is as dangerous to sleep oyer a
toy shop as over powder magazine was
shown one evening in Paris recently
when small stock of ammunition for
drawing room pistols exploded in the
Rue Bcranger with such force that it
brought to the ground a house inhabited
by over 100 persons. The terror which
the explosion caused in the Immediate
ncighborhood was immense; and the all.
dience in the Troisicmc Theatre Franca-
is, waiting for the curtain to rise, rushed
from the house in alarm. The ground
floor of the house was a toy shop and
mandatory owned by a man named
Blanchon. Above the shop there were
twenty eight rooms, all of which were
tenanted, the total number of occupants
being ninty two; besides the Maison
Blanchon itself, which employed sixty
workmen and women. The explosion
took place, luckily, at the Paris dinner
time, about eight o'clock, so that most
of the people were away. AT half-past
nine o'clock followed a second explosion
bringing down the walls Of the contigu
Gus houses, This caused another panic
for the moment. Many Of the women
had tainted from fright, and were brought
down in the arms oil the fremen. Others
tore up their sheets and blankets and
made ropes to descend with. One poor
old man who had been paralyzed for years
was rescued just as the floor Of his room
was about to fall in. Three little girls
who had been locked up while the moth.
er went out to fetch some bread for din
ner, were found playing in an attic, I'm
conscious of the danger which surround
cd them. Many other striking escapes
occurred, such as that IF little girl who
was found buried in the ruins with ia
BILE over her, which had to be sawed in
two before she could be rescued, when |
she was found safe and sound. The res
cuers worked all night at the ruins, be
meath which the groans and shrieks of
human beings were heard. A. dozen
bodies were found before morning.
