Sunday School Takers.

Experienced Sunday school speakers
know the danger of asking questions at
random OF their juvenile audiences
Novices often blunder into the habit.
not knowing its risks. One Of these
novices, who happened to be particu-
larly well-dressed young clergyman,
tried his hand on Boston Sunday
school. He began by saying: ':Now,
my dear children, look at me and tell
me where you think came from" One
of the "dear children" held up his little
hand and said: II know, Sir" The
spruce-lookinG clergyman benignant:*-
gaZed on the young child, ana, bestoW-
ing ever SO sweeta smile on him, said ::
"Well, my little man, where do yoS
think I came from?'' The clerical and
benignant smile was changed into an e2
preston of horror when the illiterate
youngster blurted out: "From the
country, sir" An irreverent gufaw of
laughter instantly pervaded the assem-
bly,, and the moral atmosphere of the
place became such as almost to quench
The good mans efforts at Sunday school
oratory. Greatly embarrassed, he strug~
gled on for little while with his speech

What Shall the Winter be.

The New York Herald Weather Bu-
reau has resumed editorial charge ofthe
seasons to which it constantly invokes-
attention. It says:
The first SHOWS of the season on the
eastern side of the country, which fell
on Sunday, were rather surprise after
the generally mild autumn. But they
were not premature, and a comparison Of
dates at which the first heavy SHOWS of
former seasons occurred shows that
those of this week do not necessarily
portend an early and cold winter. In
the November preceding the memora-
or snow extended on the 26tb entirely
over the lake region and still further
to the northwestward, the Signal Ser
vice reporting for that month total snow
falls exceeding fifteen inches at several
places in this State, and over seventeen
inches in New England. Our last win
ter, which was exceptionally mild, was
also preceded in November by heavy
snow on the 23d in Eastern Pennsyl-
vania, in Western New York to the
depth Of EIGHT to twelve inches as early
as the 18th, and OH the 18th snow covered
portions of the mountains Of North Car
DINA. The most ominous indication of
an abnormally cold winter is the occur
renee OF excessive barometr1c maxlma
in the West and Northwestern November.
Thus, preceding the intensely severe
winter of 1876-77, there occurred on
November 81 the very extraordinary
barometric maximum of 3d.
81 inches in Manitoba, and
preceding the unusually cold winter OF
l880-Sl there was an exceptionally high
barometer on November %, of 3O.86 in
ches in Ohio. The advance Of such high
pressure waves over the United States
in November clearly indicates an unu-
sual refrigeration OF the northern parts
of this continent and the northeastern
part Of Asia, whence our cold waves oc-
casionally come, and hence their ap-
pearance Signals the probable develop
ment of an exceptionally cold season in
these lower ATTITUDES. Hitherto, how
ever, we have had this season no such
intense barometic maxine, the highest
pressure reported by the Signal Service
the present month being about 1910
inches, and that not extending over q
wide area of the country. So far, there
fore, as the season has now developed,
the indications do not justify the fears
of some that we are to have an excess
lively rigorous winter, but rather the con-
tTary.

Incident i'm Gen. WOles1ey'S Ca
rG0r.

An incident in the career Of Sir Garnet
Wellesley, at the storming of Lucknow
has been commemorated In painting
ust completed in London. The story Is
as follows: Gan officer and a few 1nen
had been sent with pick axes and crow
bars to free gate way which had been
bricked up and barricaded by the enc
my. Private Andrews, a gallant fellow,
who had been Wolesley's servant in the
Crimea, ran out from under shelter to
show his comrades the way across. Nc
sooner had he darted into the street
than he was shot through the BODY from
one of the loopho1es. Wellesley had g.
particular regard for this fine fellow,
and, though he was lying out in the
street within five or six yards Of the
loophole fro n whence he had been shot,
Wellesley sprang out and bore him back
in his arms. AS he was carrying An
drews a Pandy took deliberate aim i
the officer, but the bullet passed through
the body OF the soldier, striking him
again in almost the same spot where he
had been previously wounded. He,
however, recovered, and is now enrolled
in the corps of commissioraires.
