THE ATHEIST AND THE FLOWER.

When Napoleon Bonaparte was Emperor of
France, he put man by the name of Charney into
prison. He thought Charney was enemy of
his government, ard for that reason deprived
him of his liberty. Charney was learned and
profound man, and he walked to and fro in
the small yard into which his prison opened, he
looked up to the heavens, the work of Gods
fingers and to the moon and stars which he
ordained, and exclaimed, "All things come by
chance!' One day while pacing his yard he saw
tiny plant just breaking from the ground near
the wall Thesight oft caused pleasant diversion
of his thoughts No other green thing was within
his enclosure. He watched its growth every day.
How came it here?" was the natural inquiry.
AS it grew, other queries were suggested. How
came these delicate little veins in its leaves?
What made its proportions so perfect in every
part, each new branch taking its exact place on
the parent stock, neither too near another, nor
too much on one sde?" In his loneliness the
plant became the prisoners teacher and his val
ued friend. When the flower began to unfold, he
was filled with delight 1t was white, purple,
and rose eolOred, with fine, silveTy fringe.
Charney made frame to support it, and did
what his circumstances allowed to shelter it from
the pelting rains and violent winds.
"All things come by chance" had been written
by him upon the wall. just above where the
flower grew. It's gentle reproof, as it whispered:
"There is one who made me so wonderfully
beautiful, and He it is who keeps me alive"
shamed the proud mans unbelief. He brushed
the lying words from the wall, while his heart
felt that He who made all things is God" But
God had further blessing for the erring man
through the humble flower. There was an Italian
prisoner in the same yard whose little daughter
was permitted to visit him. The girl was much
pleased with Charney's love for his flower. She
related what she saw to the wife of the jailor
The story of the prisoner and his flower passed
from one to another until it reached the ears of
the amiable Empress Josephine. The Empress
said The man who so devOtedly loves and
tends flower cannot be bad man." So she
persuaded the Emperor TO set him at liberty.
Charney carried his flower home; and carefully
tended it in his own greenhouse. 1t had taught
him to believe in God and delivered him from
prison.

being thus pressed, he aimed and fired the last
shot, which subsequently proved fatal. He fur
ther told how, upon recovering his feet, he ran,
waded through the stream, and, finding that he
had lost his hat when he fell, retraced his steps,
recrossed the stream, found the hat, and then
went to hotel, where he was seen by several
witnesses to dry his wet clothing. His manner,
his bearing and his clothing itself convinced his
hearers that he was telling the truth.
But, so that nothing might be wanting if any
doubt remained in the minds of the Judge or jury
witnesses OF undOubted veracity were called, who
corroborated him as to the condition of his cloth
ing and the cut on his cheek within fifteen min
utes after the occurrence. Besides it was shown
that, although the man who had fired had waded
through the stream Shorts clothing was perfectly
dry.
1t is unnecessary to say that Short was promptly
acquitted, and warmly congratulated on one of
the narrOwest escapes ever made by any man in
a courtroom. Nothing could have saved him
had the court refused to direct the acquittal of
Ryan and allow him to testify
The deceased corporal, the soldier, and Marv
Brown were-mistaken. That was all there was
about it.
So much for the occasional unsafeness of the
direct testimony of honest eye-witnesses.
And so much, also, for giving the accused an
opportunity to be heard on the witness stand,
the denial of which by the law is of the relics
of barbarism which still disgrace its administra-
tiOn in some States at this late day.-LOndOR

CURIoSITIES OF REPORTING.

Ignorance and carelessness on the part of re-
pOrters have led to some very amusing blunders.
"Fratrcide at Haddington" was the title given
some time ago in an Edinburgh paper to the
case of a man who was tried for the murder of
his father. An American reporter once trans
formed the quotation "Amicus Plato, amicus
Socrates, sed major veritas,' into: Il may Gus
Plato may Gus Socrates, said Major Veritas'
The next mornings feelings of the orator TO
whose words this extraordinary rendering was
given may be more easily imagined than de-
scribed.
1t was Welsh reporter who headed para
graph-"Suici of two Persons Statement OF
the One that Survived This seems more like
product of the sister isle, and if the writer was
not of Hibernian birth or extraction, he might
at all events claim affinity in genius. The erro-
neous use of the word other" has OccasiOned
many a curious blunder A Scotch paper recently
announced that "a man named Alexander
Buchanan, and two other women" were charged
with assault.

4 DEAF SOLDIER.

A soldier, wishing to get his discharge, sham
med deafness 50 successfully that all the medical
men who examined his case were deceived by
him. No noise, however sudden or unexpected,

had acquired such perfect control over his nerves

malngerers, he was little too cleyerand complete.
Still, it seemed impossible to catch him tripping.

presented with his certificate of discharge. Out

reply But the certificate, though filled in was not

THE MYSTERY OF. A FORTUNE.

Hand TO UnrayeL

Hand TO Unrayel.
PIrrsDURGH, April 20.-'rhe sudden
death OF an eccentric, middle.aged man
in Lower Merton township, Montgom-
cry county; Pa, envelopes in mystery
the whereabouts OF a fortune of $1,000
or $1,000. Sometime ago Mr.. Fogarty,
the tenant OF Mr.. Joshua Ashbridge s
farm, near Bryn Mawr, employed a
stranger who came TO his place as farm
hand. The new conner was very reticent
about his antecedents, but it sas learned
that bis name was Ryan, that he had
friends living in Philadelphia and in
Iowa, and that he led a rowing life, going
from place to place over the whole
country, picking up work whenever he
could. Last Thursday Mr.. Ryan was
suddenly taken i'll, and after lingering
until Sunday died. His burial took
place shortly after, from the house OF
Mr.. Fogarty. About an hour before his
death the deceased asked that scriv-
ener be sent Tor to draw up will. The
request was complied with, and the
legal document was duly prepared
and executed, in which he be-
oueathed to his Iowa and Philadelphia
friends various sums of money aggregat-
ing 81, 600 or $4,000. Every one in the
room was amazed at the wealth oil the
supposed INDECENT Ryan, and he was
asked where the money was. "Knicker-
booker" gasped he, suddenly sinking
back on his pillow, and before he could
utter another word the spark OF life had
fled The whereabouts OF the money is
deep mystery, but communication will
be held with the legatees named in the
will and o.hcr efforts will be made to
discover where the money is deposited
or invested.
