kissing ON q Wager.

At party of youngmen in Paris CONVEX
sation happened to turn on the subject OF KISS
ing, and the question was propounded who OF
the young men present could boast OF having
given, or being able to give ''his girl the
most kisses Various were the replies that
this question called out. Finally young man
and the girl to whom he was betrothed bet
200 francs that they could kiss 10000 times
in ten hours, provided they would be allowed
to take a glass of wine ''between.' Two
persons were appointed committee to count
the number of kisses, and the work began.
During the first hour they counted 1900 kiss
es. During the second hour the kisses were
not as numerous, for the committee only
counted 1000. After the third hour. during
which they managed to score but 75O,
further operations we're brought to sudden
standstill. The lips of the young man were
seized with cramp. and he was carried or
in fainting condition. The girl, few
days later, was stricken with brain fever,
which nearly carried her off to land where
kissing under any form is unknown. When
the people who had won the bet demanded
their money, the parents of the girl refused
to nav her share of it. The matter was then
taken before the courts, and there it was de-
cided that the bet must be paid.

THE OLD SLUICE BOX.

Where the rocks are gray and the mountains steep,
And the guch below looks dark and deep:
Where the gnarled pines in their rugged pride
Loom glOomily up on either side;
Where the manZanlta 's crooked and thick,
Where once was heard the shovel and pick,
Where the shadows lie heavily upon the rocks,
There ies half buried, the old sluice box.
The idle stream though it laziy glides,
Gently lashing its mouldering sides
Sides that were once muddy and dim
From the yellow 6irt that was cast within;
While across the stream, on the gravel heaps,
The agile squirrel silently leaps
And the crested quail, futtering, drops
For its evening drink from the old sluice box.
Oh, many day, with weary hand,
Have tossed in its bed the glitter1ng sand:
And dreamed as leaned on its retting side,
Raking the depths of its turbid tide,
OF fathers gray hairs and dear mothers smile,
And loved ones at home who were waiting the while
The wanderers return. But time sneeringy mocks
At the days that toilcd at the old sluice box.
From the moss green rock on which l can,
| gaze down into the sluggish stream;
The face that see has graver grown,
And my voice. it seems has soberer tone;
And the wanton winds with my hair at play
Shows that my locks have all turned gray.
Still / love to think of the days gone by,
When my spirits were light my hopes were high;
] could welcome again the rough, hard knocks
To be mining once more with tue old slulce box.

The Hon. Schuyler Colfax, in his lecture
the other night, told new story and good
one. The Marquis of Harrington, present
leader of the Ems glish Liberal party, was trav,
cling in this country during the war, and
while here made semi-oficial call on Presi-
dent Lincoln. He was introduced to honest
old Abe in the White House with some cere-
mony, but Mr.. Lincoln grasped the hand OF
the Marquis with his broad hand, closed
grip on it that brought tears to the English
mans eyes, and said in CHEEKY voice !:
"Glad to see you, Marquis of Harrington.
Shall never forget you, because your name
rhymes with one of our great characters
Mrs. Partington. How are you, Marquis T.
and he gave Harrington another squeeze !;
after which my lord left the executive cham
Der nursing his hand and his temper. declar-
ing to a friend that ''your American Presi-
dent is a boor!" The secret of the Presl-
dents action was that the Marquis had ap-
neared at a ball in New York few nights
before his visit to Washington and ostenta-
tiously wore the rebel colors in his button
hole. The incident was published, and the
President, knowing that the Marquis was to
call at the White House, concluded to give
the naughty but ill-bred Englishman a pune
ture that he would get through even his Bull
hide. And he did.

An Ingenious Letter.

The following letter shows the ingenuity
of young bride who was obliged to show
her correspondence to her tyrannical hus-
band in writing to friend
"I cannot be satisfied my dearest friend,
blessed as | am, in the matrimonial state,
unless | pour into your friendly bosom,
which has never been in unison with mine,
the various deep sensations which swell
with the livliest emotions of pleasure,
my almost bursting heart. tell you my dear
husband is one of the most amiable of men,
| have been married seven weeks, and
have never found the least reason to
repent the day that Joined us; my husband is
in person and manners. far from resembling
an ugly, cross, disagreeablea and jealous monster
who thinks by confdlng to secure
a wife. 1t is his maxim to treat as a
bosom friend and confident, not as a
plaything or menial slave, the woman
chosen to be his companion. Neither party
he says ought to obey Implicitly !;
but each yield to the other by turns.
An ancient maiden aunt near seventy,
cheerful, venerable, and pleasant old lady,
lives in the house with us-she is the de-
light of the young and the old-she is ci-
vii to all the neighborhood around,
generous and charitable to the poor
l know my husba I'd loves nothing more
than he does me; he fatters me more
than the glass, and his intoxication
(for so must call the excess of his love)
often makes me blush for the unworthiness
of its object, and wish could be deserving
of the man whose name I bear To
say all in one word, my dear and to
crown the whole, my former gallant lover
is now my indulgent husband, my fondness
is returned, and I might have married
prince, without the felicity find with
him. Adieu; may you be blest as am un-
able to wish that I could be made more
happy"
The key to the letter is to read the first and
then every alternate line.

An Arctic Fruit.

The successful expedition of Professor
Nordenskjold has proved that the shores OF
the Arctic sea are not so inhospitable as has
been generally supposed. Perhaps the most
interesting of the minor discoveries made by
the learned explorer is the finding OF q new
remedy against the dread of all navigators
and the particular scourge of Arctic ezpedi-
tions-namely, scurvy. 1t appears that there
was not single case of the disease during
the whole voyage, and this remarkable fact Is
due, not to the employment of lime-juice ana
and other antiscorbutics in ordinary use, but
to the use of curious little berry, hitherto
unrecognized, produced by plant which
finds an ephemeral existence in the snow and
ice during the short Arctic summer. Ihe
berries are found in great abundance, and are
said to be favorite fruit with some OF the
natives of the great ice world. Its flavor re-
semhles that of the raspberry, but is more
acid. The mode of preparation adopted on
the voyage of the Vega was to dry the berries
and then preserve them in the milk OF the
reindeer, which was then allowed to freeze.
In this state the fruit can be preserved for an
indefinite period.

Perhaps she placed it in her golden hair

And some young lover sought the blossoms rare,
To hint love he did not dare to tell.
Perhaps some thoughtful scholar dropped it here,
To mark the passage till he read again,
And bound within its prison close and drear,

consequently, to do away sea-sickness entire
