OUR LIMITATIONS.

We trust and fear, we question and believe,
From life's dark threads trembling faith to
weave,
Frail as the web that misty night has spun
Whose dew-gemmed awnings glitter in the
sun,
While the calm centuries srell their lessons
out
Each truth we conquer spreads the realm of
doubt;
When Sinai's summit was Jehovahs throne,
The chosen prophet knew his voice alone
When Pilates hall that awful question heard,
The heavenly captive answered not word.
Eternal truth! beyond our hopes and fears.
Sweep the vast orbits of thy myriad spheres!
From age to age; while history carves sub
lime
On her waste rock the flaming curves of time,
How the wild swayings of our planet show
That worlds unseen around the world we
know

Halifax as q Summer Resort.

Halifax is promising itself fine time
the coming Summer His Excellency
the Marquis of Lorne and her Royal
Highness the Princess Louise are ex-
pected to spend a portion of the season
in that city, and this fact is said to have
induced many people of the Upper
Provinces and the United States to
spend the Summer there. Besides,
Prince Victor and George, sons of the
Prince of Wales, are to visit the port in
her Majestys steamship Bacchante, now
at Jamaica. His Royal Highness
Priifce Leopold will also, it is reported,
pay visit to this continent, and the
Haligonians, of course, expect to receive
him with the other scions of royalty.
His Grace the Duke of Beaufort, Sir
John Reid, and Mr.. Sothern, who are
to fish in the Metapediac, will visit
Halifax Other notabilities are report
he'd to have in prospect the enjoyment Of
the delicious saline breezes of the mara
time coast during the season. With so
brilliant an array Of guests spending the
Summer among them, the good people of
Halifax may almost afford to lay aside
their claims upon the rest Of their DO
minion, and commence business-like OPP
eratons toward making its neighbor-
hood the Summer resort of Canada. -

That Terrible Moment.

When the curtain arose on the fifth
at of "Mardo, the Hunter" at the
New National Theatre, in Philadelphia,
there was disclosed an immense lion,
Nero, who was fastened to the stage by
chains hidden from the audience. He
lay quiet as possum while Mardo
Frank I Frayne) advanced to the unin-
closed side, took off his leather collar
and unfolded the paper it contained.
Then the curtain descended amid
thunders of applause. Nero was then
led quietly to his cage, some ten feet be-
hind, by W. Thompson, of Forepaugh's,
who had him in charge during the day.
Just at this moment Frayne's dog Jack,
large and rather ferocious looking
creature, which its owner claims to be a
cross between a bull and ST. Bernard,
came upon the stage and approached the
lions cage. Just as soon as Nero be-
held Jack he rose to his feet, and, with
roar which startled all, bit at one of
the iron bars, which parted as though it
had been made of wood. In a twinkl-
ing another bar was snapped by his Wig
Gus jaws. All this was done so quickly
that the second bar had gone before
Frayne had time to cry out
"My God the lions getting out p
The stage was crowded with actors
and actresses, and the stampede that
followed battles description. Before,
however. Nero had had time to snap the
third bar, which would have given him
liberty, Keeper Thompson secured the
chain which was fastened around the
animals neck, and passing it through
one of the bars at the end drew it to-
wards himself with all his might, at the
same time winding it round his arm.
By this means Nero's head was held so
tight that his tongue actually protruded
from his mouth, while the hold of the
keeper on the bars was so strong that
the iron links cut into his arm A few
moments in this position was enough for
Nero, who once more laid down and
permitted his cage and himself to be re-
moved to its proper position in the rear
of the stage. At the night performance
Jack was kept out of the way, and Nero
performed his part properly and then
retired in a peaceable and becoming
manner

"a Tramp Abroad"

Beyond doubt the new book from
the pen of Mark Twain is his master
piece. 1t is lively in tone, and instruc-
tive from beginning to end. This ex-
tract from his experiences in the Swiss
mountains, after being out in soaking
rain, is 50 pleasantly told that we make
an extract,
ave stripped and went to bed, and
sent our clothes down to be baked. All
the horde of soaked tourists did the
same. That chaos of clothing got mixed
in the kitchen, and there was conse-
quences. | did not ge5 the same draw
ers l sent down when our things came
up at 6:l5; got pair on n new plan.
They were merely pair Of long, white
rufflet-cufted sleeves, hitched together at
the top with narrow band, and they
did not quite come down to my knees.
They We're pretty enough, but they
made me feel like two people, and dis
connected at that. The man must have
been an idiot who got himself mp that
way to rough it in the Swiss mountains.
The shirt they brought me was shorter
than the drawers, and hadn t any sleeves
to tat least, il hadn't anything more
than what Mr. Darwin would cal
"rudimentary" sleeves. These had edg.
ing around them, but the bosom was ri
dicuously plain. The knit silk underl
shirt they brought me was on new
plan, and was really sensible thing; it
opened behind, and had pockets in it TO
put the shoulder blades in; they did not
seem to fit mine. They gave my bob
tail coat to somebody else, and sent me
an ulster suitable for a giraffe. had to
tie my collar on, because there was 90
button behind on the foolish little shirt.
When l wen. to dinner long strang-
er recognized his ulster as soon as he
saw the tail of it following me in, but
nobody claimed my shirt and drawers,

able. / gave them to the chambermaid
that night when l went to bed, and she
probably found the owner, for my things
were on chair beside my door in the
morning"

The Chrlstiancy Affair.

Mrs. Christiancy has stirred up tenn
pest of her own, and her side of the
story is pretty thoroughly known.
Minister Christiancy will return from
Peru to settle matters as soon as the
present complications between Peru and
her neighbors are settled. The wise
acres, the prophets, the 81 told you SOS"
are refreshing their memories as to what
they said four years ago, when the Mich
igan Senator chose to marry treasury
printer fifty years his junior On the
day of the wedding one of the guests
finished his account of the affair by
promising that the Senator would
soon be very weary of his bargain.
They were married in the morning by
by the chaplain of the senate, and took
the noon train for Philadelphia. Sena-
tor Ferry, who had officiated as best
man to the poor bridegroom, rose in his
seat when Mr.. Christiancy's name was
called in the Senate roll and "begged
leave to state that his colleague had
paired"
In Philadelphia the bride was lone
some, homesick and wretched; she wept
and bohooed, swelled her nose and red
dened her eyes, called the city stupid
old town, and probably thought the
same thing of her spouse, if she was con-
siderate enough not to tell him SO. On
her return, there was questioning and
querying among society ladies as to
whethe, they should call on her, but
Mrs. Fish settled that matter by being
the first to call and congratulate the
bride. Among the rumors at the time,
there was one to the effect that she had
gay, young lover from the South, who
had given her up for the while, promis-
ing to swat for he."--whatever kind
wishes that might imply for the poor old
Senator. AT a reception at the White
House which they attended soon after,
this novel bride and groom were ,no
sensations of the evening. Arrayed IN
her white silk wedding dress, made with
long pulled plsstron down the front,
like an infants christening robe, she
chung timidly to his arm, her eyes gazing
roundly at the beauties and sights of the
SOCltl scNoIltu ucaN6 Oil W Which, SIG Hdu
at last penetrated. To all this she has
now to say adisu, her complaints and
statements so freely given to print hav-
ing finished her career and every hope
of compromise. A year ago she trod
the priceless Turkey rugs of Lady
Thorntons drawing rooms, ate terrapin
with crested fork and drank her cham
pasre from Venetian glasses; and now,
she colors photographs in a dingy board
ing house and regales herself on britain
MIA ware and ironstone china. Her last
appearance in society here was at Lady
Thorntons reception last Winter, just
after Mr. Christiancy's confirmation as
our Minister to Peru, and quite hatter-
ing attentions were paid them during
the evening. Washington Cor.
