Queen Victoria is said by the Lon
don correspondent of the Hartford Coaa'-
AMI not to understand the quality Of
Gaelic piety. While staying at Loch
Maree she wanted to 60 one Sunday to q
little island in the center OF the lake not
one Of the Highland boatmen would pull
her over, in view Of Sabbath breaking.
But it happened that tourist wished to
cross at the same place, the fare being
two shillings. The boat was tied up for
q dry Sunday, but he found the boatman
and offered him thrice his fee, which the
canny Scot sternly and piously refused,
for it was the "Holy Sabbath, ye ken
mon = "Then,. said the "mon," Il will
give you ten shillings and sixpence.' !
;'Ah, weel T. answered the Scotchman, 4
will ma brak the Sabbath for tWa shillin'
nor sax shillin', but I'll TAX re over for
len and sax" and the tourist was waited
across.

Afraid Of Himself.

Last evening Mayor Megraw, Of AlIeg-
heny, was visited BY respectable looking
man who asked 10 be placed IN the lock.
up, as he feared he was losing bis mind and
would do himself harm. He stated that
on Saturday his wife had told him there
was some rent due on the house, which
angered him SO that he made use of an
oath, something he had not done for many
years.
This SO troubled him that he believed
he was becoming insane. When he
crossed the bridge he could hardly with
stand the desire to leap into the river, and
for fear he might hurt himself or mem
Der Of the family, he was careful to put
all sharp instruments beyond his reach.
His honor conversed with him for some
time, and he talked so nationally that he
hesitated about placing the man IN the
lookup Finally, however, he granted the
mans request, in SO far as to lock him up
in the Hospital Department.-IittsOnrg

The Wages of Fast Living.

The Boston Tfaueller Of Saturday
breaches this little sermon Less than
j year ago two young men moved IN
some Of the best social circles of this city
each the center Of D coterie Of admiring
friends. They entertained freely, dressed
extravagantly, drove elegant turnouts,
frequented fashionable resorts, and lived
in the most princely style. A few days
since one Of them paid bis creditors 3
cents on a dollar, and to-day the other
after lingering in the Charles street jail
for months, was sentenced to the House
Of Correction upon the charge Of con.
spring to defraud his creditors. His
downfall has been most ignominIous. His
wife, it is understood, has left him, his
friends have long since abandoned him,
and. worst Of all, his ill-gotten money, for
which he sold his good name and his
high position in society, has been thrown
away IN vain effort to escape his richly
merited punishment Young men will do
we'll to consider the end Of the two careers
Of fast living"

How a Chfnaman Plays the Fiddle.

The ST. Louis Post Dispatch thus de
scribes the operation: At one Of the
Chinese lanndries on Chestnut street last
evening quite crowd gathered to hear a
musical soree within. A middle-aged
Mongolian was playing Celestial fiddle,
a queer.looking, two stringed instrument
something like an exaggerated pipe. The
bow, of the most archie description, was
,sfSang inside the strings, so that the
music was drawn from below by raising
the bow, perfectly logical way for an
antithetic:l Chinee to harmonic. The
melodies, what there were Of them, were
simple and even sweet, that is, they might
be sweet if they were pIayes. on sweet
toned viol. The thing seemed to be all
keyed above the bri lge. One Of the pig
tailed auditors was carried away by the
air back to ne sand }banks Of the Per Ho,
and, throwing sfmbus Of spray about
him, from out III mouth, earoed forth q
Chinese 1nadrigal to the huge asasssen.es.t
Of the crowd.

MAY 1, 1879. .
1t is reported that sparks from the engine
on the Narrow-Gauge railroad set fire to the
woods last Friday in the Wards Spring re-
gion, and that much damage eusued. Mr..
Ii. 4. Farmer, OF Halifax county. who owns
a large body OF land on Brushy Mountain,
.'s said to have lost 500 cords OF wood which
he bad cut for market, and also much OF the
underground and the timber. Some OF the
Geighbors lost heavily in the destruction of
fences and of wood and timber. The fire
was making its way on towards Stanton
river Sunday afternoon, but it is supposed
that his rayages were stopped by the rain OF
Sunday night. Speaking Of this fire reminds
me Of a great fire which occurred in this
same re. yion last spring. The said fire had
reached ,the track, of the Midland railroad.
and had go burned the cross-ties that the
connection was broken, and any train which
attempted T., pass would have been wrecked.
Mrs. S. G. Adams, who lives in that neigh
borhood, discovered the danger Just as the
trSin was coming down. and
going, up the tSack-with an "extem-
porized" flag of red flannel, it is said
made signals aud had the train stopped. II
| am not mistaken the passengers and bag
gage on that train were brought through on
he train which went ont from Danv,lle.
