But l struck one chord of music,
Like the sound OF great Amen.

And 1t lay on my feyrred spirit
With a touch Of infinite calm.

A Word About COntradicting.

NJ one lakes to be contradicted, even
when contradiction is absolutely neces-
sary. A few resolutely amiable souls may
bear it without visible demonstration of
annoyance, but such cases are uncommon
and exceptional, and only serve to prove
the rule. But too often it happens that
contradiction is not only unnecessary but
supertluous, as a few samples will prove.

tual friend. eyes, I saw her in July for

her sister Immediately interrupts with
ooh, no, you didn't, you saw her in All

"Well, in August then" saws Miss A,
accepting the correction, and going on
with her story. 'sShe seemed yery
well, and yet it was just one week
afterward that she was taken with

saw her; you said SO at that time" breaks
in the accurate sister once more.
Miss A finally closes her narrative BY

The Effect of POliteness.

A brave, active, intelligent terrier, be-
longing to lady friend, discovered a
monkey belonging to an itinerant organ
grinder seated upon the bank within the
grounds, and at once made dash for him.
The monky who was attired in jacket
and hat, awaited the onset with such un-
disturbed tranquility that the dog halted
within a few feet of him to reconnoitre.
Both animals took long steady stare at
each other, but the dog was evidently re-
covering from his surprise, and about to
make a spring for the intruder. At this
critical juncture the monkey, who had
remained perfectly quiet hitherto, raised
his paw and gracefully saluted by rails
ing his hat. The effect was magical; the
dogs head and tail dropped, and he
sneaked off and entered the house, rcfus-
ing to leave it till he was satisfied that
his polite but mysterious guest had de-
parted. His whole demeanor showed
that he felt the monkey was something
"uncaDny," and not to be meddled with

Cruel Kitty.

DITTY BY JOHN BROUGHAM.
Ora! murther, murther, Kitty, dear!
I'm wastin' all away;
BY raison of your cruelty,
NV brains has gone asthray.
They tell me sunlight has the strength
For to make the sinses fly
So nv poor head was emptied
BY the bright beams of your eye.
Ora! what's the use in life at all
Since you have served me so?

Lie down, stand up, or go.
Just like young tree breathed on
By warm but blightin' air, a...a-
Your smile has stole all hope away,
And left me but despair.
Ora! would some fairy change me
To q purity bird or flower,
That my Kitty's hands may tend me
Every day and every hour.
For her dear eyes to look on me
I'd be some lifeless thing, "
More gladly than, away from them,
TO be a mighty king
And when you die I'd like to be
Transformed into stone,
With outside smooth and shinin'
But with heart cowld as your own;
That might stand and guard your grave
When calmly there you rest,
And bear my darlin' Kitty's name
Engraved upon my breast.

RACHEL AND RISTORI.
Distinguishing Characteristics of the
Great Dramatic Queens.


s Rachel was no fighter. She had no
confidence in herself, and yet, by
strange (but easily ex plaiped) anomaly,
she was disturbed by the least hostilescrit-
icism, even by people beneath contempt.
At rehearsal she often was thrown into
panic. The night she first appeared in
New York, she was so disturbed by the
rustling of the leaves as the audience fol-
lowed her, book in hand, that she came
within an ace of falling into Mysteries.
The least incident put her out. Hence
the care with which even her custume
was secured against all disarrangements.
Even at the Height of her reputation, and
when everybody who went to hear was
an enthusiastic applauder, she never
could play unless all the hireling ap-
plauders were in their usual places in the
pit. In vain the managers and actors
told her that hundreds were nightly turn
ed from the door for want Of seats; but
| she insisted upon the presence of those
mercena1y applauders. How different
she was from her great rival, Ristori
Ristori always insisted that there should
be none of these hirelings in the theater
when she played. She said: II am not only
irritated by their horrible, little, mechan-
ical noise, but they hide the public from
me. I cannot follow the public feeling
Now. it is the public with whom would
have to restle. If the public be hostile
all the better, the fight will be the warmer
If the public hiss me, all the worse.

Too often the whole point Of an anus
ing anecdote, or the force of a remark, is
destroyed by some unmeaning and i'm
pertinent contradiction, while the effect
upon both speaker and hearers is irritat-
ing in the extreme. Only lately we were
commencing exactness of speech, correct
ness in small details, and the like, but
this is very different matter from that,
and should never be COMPOUNDED with it.

Ths Smni.Lot Asitators.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 15.-The
meeting at the sand lots yesterday
was very thin and lacking in en-
thusiasm, owing either to Arch
bishop Alemany's pastoral or TO
the disagreeable weather. A reso-
luton was passed that religious
leaders had nothing to do with the
movement, and had better let it
alone. A committee was appoint
ed to tender the Chief of Police
twenty thousand Workingmen to
put down the Vigilance Commit
lee which Kearney thinks is being
organized. Another committee
was appointed to take steps to
prosecute and suppress the daily
Alta, as an incendiary sheet.
