when q student ut Rutgers. was. ac-
cording to bis classmate, the Rev. John
McC. Holmes. d. d., Of Albany, given
the text for a trial sermon. DIR. Holmes
is very successful in reproducing tho
Talmagian analysis Of that sermon.
a. "a good wife," that is, .'one good
wife"-at . time. is . good thing.
More than one. at o time, Is sinful ns
well as superfuous. Illustration: The
miseries Of Brigham Young. (2.) She
must obviously be your W wife. An.
other mans wife is to be avoided. Il
lustration: Any divorce suit going. (S)
"a good wife is from the Lord,h
sthereforc a bad wife Is from the dew
H." Moral: Love the Lord and hate
the devil" Conclusion: Depict tho
diabolic traits of . bad wife, but do not
bear down too hard on the devil, lest
he have . chance to aflict you with one
OF his wives. Albany Argus.

PORE LEO KILL Is incensed at the
Emperor Francis for receiving King
Humbert, Of Italy, with open arms. As
Italy has for many years oppressed the
vatican, and Austria was its chief sup
porter, the old pope naturally feels in
censed that the two should unite in
friendly greeting. But it is the sig
nifcance o fthe meeting that mostalarms
the pope. If it mean anything 1t is
that Italy is to have her W way In
matters relating to Rome. This is worth
a great deal to Italy, while the latter
promises Austria to suppress the Halid

There is valuable consideration on both
sides, and Austria is as anxious.to keep
her promise as Italy is to observe the
compact on her part. As matters
stand the pope must take care ofhimself
Temporarily as well as spiritually. No
government now stands forth as the
protector and defender OF the great
faith.

FAULTS P0MPEY COULDN'T REMEMBER.

A clergyman, wishing to be rid of his
horse, and try for better one, directed the
old negro man to sell his beast for what he
would bring, or to exchange him for another,
adding, at the same time, an anxious caution
not to deceive the purchaser, and even emu.
merating the faults of the animal, lest one
should be overlooked.
Remember, Pompey, he has four faults. "
"Oh yes, massa, | remember"
Pompey, jogging along the road, and count.
ing over the list to himself, as the old lady
over her luggage, "big box, little box, band
box, bundle" was overtaken by man on
horseback, who entered into conversation,
and among other topics, made some enquiries
about the horse.
Pompey told his story, and that his mas
ter had charged him to tell the horses faults
to the purchaser without reservation.
"Well, what are they p" said the stranger;
who had mind to swap.
"Dere is four, massa," said Pompey, "and
I don't remember 'em all very well just
now, but
"Well, tell me those you do remember"
"Well, sar, one is that the horse is white
and de white hairs get on massa's coat, ane
dat don't look we'll for clergyman"
"And the next?"
81 don't anyhow remember de oders," sale
Pompev, peering into the clouds with one
eye, refectively.
The stranger concluded to strike bargain
and exchange his own horse, which had moi
quite so gentle an air as the parsons, for this
nearly perfect animal. 1t was not long be
fore the clerical steed stumbled and threw
his rider into ditch. Picking himself up a:
well as he could, he examined his new pur
chase little more closely, and discovered
that the horse was entirely blind. Finding
Pompey again without much difficulty, bis
wrath brust forth in torrent of reproaches
"You black rascal, what does that mean
This horse is broken kneed and as blind as {
molc!'
20, yes" massa, said Pompey, blandy
"dem's de oder two faults dat couldn't re
member"
