The notice of the run made by the White Star
liner Britannia in days, 10 hours, was quoted
from the Ndrdi Architectore article of Iron of Fri
day, March 18th, 1884, under the heading g A
Remarkable Passage" The knots run in each
day are not given, but it states that the ship in
question sailed from Queenstown on Friday
Feb. 18th, at 4:30 p NJ, and arrived at New York
ON Friday morning, Mar. 4th, at $50 A. NJ, having
completed the passage in six days and ten hours"
Iron is an old established paper and is looked
upon a good authority in all matters concern
ing g science, metals and manufacture in iron and
steel" The notice of the new Cunard steamer
Sercia which we published last week was from the
same paper; if we remember bright it was reported
that this same Britannia made eleven passages
across the Atlantic III year, making dn acreage
of more than sixteen knots for the whole years

the lady heard him utter the follow
ing: Taking the overcoat and hang.
iIg it up. he said: Hang there, you.
tf:y-dollar overcoat!" Pulling off
his gloves and putting them on the
table: Lay there, you i've dollar
gloves!" Placing his hat on the
rack, his cane in the corner: Stand

HOW THE PASTOR LIED.

Old Parson S., of Connecticut.
was particular kind of a person.
One day he had u man plowing in his
field, and he went ont TO see how
the work vas getting on. The
ground was very stony, ard every
lime the plew struck stone the
man took occasion to swear q little.
'.Look here" cried Parson s.,
You must not swear that way in
my field"
:Wen. I reckon you'd swear too"
said thu man, IF you had to plow
in such stony field as this"
Not bit of'it," said Mr. s.
Just let me show you"
So the parsoa took hold Of the
plow, but he very soon had trouble
with the stones. As stone after
stone caught the plowsbare, Dir. S.
enculated:
"Well, I never saw the like"
And that be repeated every time
a stone stopped his onward way.
As soon as he had plowed around
once or twice. be stopped and saiG
to the man: !, sa.
There now! You see ! can pillow
