Killed the Wrong Hens.

An irasciblc sea captain settled down TO
Portland life by the side of well tempered
man, and the two got along very well until
the hen question came up. Said the Cap
tain:
Il like you as neighbor, but don't like
your hens, and if they trouble me any more
I'll shoot them"
The mildminded ncighbor studied over
the matter some but knowing the Captain's
reputation well by report, he replied:
We'll, if we can't get along any other way,
shoot the hens, but I'll take it as a favor if
you will throw them when dead over into
our yard and veil to my wife.
"All right" said the Captain.
The next day the Captains gun was heard
and n dead hen tell in the quiet mans yard
The next day another hen was thrown over,
the next two, and the next after three.
Say said the quiet man, couldn't you
scatter them along a little? We really can't
dispose of the number you ale killing"
Give EN- to your poor relations" replied
the Captain, grutf1y.
And the quiet man did. He kept his
neighbors well supplied with chickens for
some weeks.
One day the Captain said to the quiet
man:
II have half dozen nice hens Pm going
to give you if youll keep quiet about this
affair"
"IIow is that said the quiet man. Are
you sorry because you killed my hensr"
"Your hens - said the Captain why,
sir, those hens belonged to my wife |
didn't know she had any until fed you and
your elghbOrS all summer out of her flock >

how he was going To "let him out" He said,

TIME AND THE MAIDEN

fND hAHnfN.
A little girl rock'd in fairy boat,
BY the waves of the river of life atioat,
And her golden tresses and laughter gay
Floated back on the breeze as she sped away:
And she galy cried to the boatman gray,
Fly faster your tardy oars pray,
And bear me away from this blossOming wood
TO the beautiful island of maidenhood."
The madens isle has been reached and passed
sun on and beyond is her fond gaze cast,
As she cries again to the boatman gray,
ply faster your tardy oars pray,
FOR my lover is waiting by y0nder shore
With gided bark and Il golden oar;
Love sits at the helm to cheer and guide
And he waiteth for me, his chosen BRIDE"
Oh, love. what beautiful freight hast thou!
The bark is laden from stem to prov,
And the mother gazes with loving pride
On her mate, and the dear ones who throng hel
side;
Yet still she cries to the boatman gray,
PLY faster your tardy oars, pray,
For Wealth, and Fame, and Honor await
My loved ones when they shall reach man,
estate"
And now the river is deep and wide.
And branches flow from its either side
And the children, to man and womanhood grown
Are launching forth in boats of their own
And the mother cries, with a sudden fear
Oh, tarry, gray boatman, yet longer here;
Why hurry on with such speed, pray?
You are bearing my loved ones all away"
Again she rocks in boat alone,
And her heart keeps time to the waves low
moan,
As she feebly cries, to the boatman gray,
PLY faster your tardy oars, pray,
For the dear ones have gone from my loving care
They have drifted out on the sea so fair,
And long to be with them and part no more,
On the tireless waves of the golden shore"

That's About the WAY of it.

A correspondent asks whether story told
by Capt. Farrow, Of lsleboro, Me, at his
own expense, does not find singuarly close
parallelism in the business methods adopted
by some of our fire insurance companies
The captain was trading in small vessel
along the coast, and at Tampa Bay he pur.
chased twenty dozen chickens, paying four
dollars dozen for them They were of all
ages and sizes, some being ready for the pot
and others scarcely done with their shells
At Key West a hotel-keeper came alongside
and asked the price of the chickens The
captain answered :"If you pick them out
shall charge you six dollars dozen, but il
you will let me pick them out, you can have
them for three dollars dozen" "All right,
said the hotel man, 'you pick them Out" y
The captain selected several dozens of the
fledglings, expecting every moment to hear
the purchaser cry enough" But still he
said Ego on" The captain saw the point at
last, but he stuck to his bargain, and select
ed" the entire lot at a net loss to himself OF
twenty dollars.

The Smallest Church.

Westdae, a little parish in England, has
the smallest church in that country-and it
is II very diminutve affair 1t has but eight
pews, and yet is capable of accommodating
double the population OF the district. The
rector opens the church himself, and rings the
bell. Then he dons his ecclesiastical robes in
the presence Of his congregation. There is
no musical instrument in the church, and the
minister leads the singing His sermons are
very short Il recent one occupying only seven
and u. half minutes in its delivery. Two SER
vices are held every Sunday and the rector
clerk, preceptor sexton, bellringer and
churchwarden, all combined in one, receives
for the performance of his varied duties the
modest little salary of about $500.

LETTER FROM NEW YORK,
Spectacle ofthe Monitor.l


Neao York, June 10, 1882.
We don't hear quite so much about
local strikes now, and the. conclusion
is that the axe and the helve, as
Puck puts it, have come together
again, and labor and capital have
made up their minds that if they
don't work together to cord up the
wood, there'll be some shiyering in
winter One of the funniest of the
strikes was in the Herald Office. 1t
lasted % minutes and the Chapel
won. A proofreader, copyholder
and compositor were summarily fined
for some blunder. The last rebelled,
saying the two others should have
called his attention to it, and was
discharged. Result sympathetic re-
volt crowned by victory as above.
Some of our leading citizens, be-
sides Bennett, who is Disguised with
the country where he makes his mon
ely and has gone to the Azores in his
steam yacht with party of friends,
are suffering from sad lack of ven
Grafton on the part of some who are
not leading citizens. That unfortu-
nate Andre monument has finally beer
sent to everlasting smash at Tappan
and a cruel caricature of the great
and good Cyrus W. Field, who erect
ed it, was found suspended on pol'
beside the fragments, representing
him Sus per col. with an Inscription

, in the pockets of his countrymen.
Mr.. Field had sailed for Europ
