A Damper on Timothy.

Tmblethorpe got up the other morning, and,
much to his disgust. found that the fire in the
sttingroom stove was out. The stove was one
of the kind which is supposed to keep fire in
all winter. and Timblethorpe. with mans usual
Ignorance about household affairs, imagined that
it would never need fresh fuel ''The stove is
humbug, he said. ooh, no. believe not" re-
piled Mrs. Timblethorpe, "you ought to have
put some coal on it before you went to bed.''
He made no answer to this ungenerous insinua-
ton, but went on with his preparations to build
new fire, for both the lady helps who conde-
scended to partake of his hospitality were laid
up with bad colds. His experience as porter
had been very limited. and he found some diff

the neighbors rushed in, believing that the house
was in flames. "What's the trouble 2" said one
OF them, as he tried to find the head of the
house in the binding atmosphere. Its owing

won't work" Nothing the matter with the
stove, Timothy, chirped the lady of his love;

It will bear repeating. The young lady in ques-

could not help asking her If she hadn't a cart

1T Is SAID that one of the singular supersti-
tiOns which prevail among miners in the great
Pennsylvania coal fields is that if any one whist
les in mine disaster is sure to follow. This be-
lief is chiefly confined to foreigners but their
preudices are respected by their fellow-labcrers
who are natives, and whstng is a pastme
never INDUCED in underground except by
thoughtless or reckless persons. Like all super
stitions. this one is supported by long cata-
logue OF proofs" that it is the truth. For in
stance: On the I'd of December, 1872. Margan
Powell, mine boss, imagined ne heard a man
Whistling in the shaft. Investigation proved
that no one had been whistng at all. He was
told by the miners that he had had bad omen
and that some trouble would befall him. That
night as he was leaving the store of Captain
Williamson, at Summit Hill. midway between
Lanford and Mauch Chunk he was shot dead by
Mollie Mcguire assassins who were afterward
captured by Detective McParlan and hanged at
Mauch Chunk. The miners think it was the
whistle of the fatal bullet that he heard that
morning.

Lord Coleridge on Breach of Promise.

In summing upin an action for breach
Of promise of marriage, at, Liverpool
recently, Lord Chief Justice Coleridge,
abiding to some remarks as to the ex-
pediency Of this class of action, said that
what might be the enlightened conclu-
sion of Parliament on the question he
did not know. Parliament might think
fit 20 abolish breach of promise rs a
ground of action, but il was much to be
considered before that contamination
was arrived at whether in certain ranks
of life women would have any protection
against the misconduct Of men. II was
too much forgotten that these actions
were often extremely useful in keeping
people within the bounds of duty, which,
If there were not such laws, they would
avoid. It very often happened that a
woman gave up, honestly and affection
ately, the best years of her life 10 n par
ticuhr man, and put aside all thoughts
OF marrying any one else. When that
man dishonesty and illegally broke his
contract With her, the only compensa-
ton she could obtain for the wrong done
to her was to seek heavy and substantial
damages in court of law.-Lon,lon
