Fishing by 9 Stove.

How They Take SmeIt Out of Lake
 Champla1n.
 Of winter smelt-fshing on the lake at Burlington, Vt., 8 corresponent says: Instead of kneeling in the cold wind beside constantly freezing hole in the ice, the fish, ernaan now sits at ease in his neat little nov able house. warmed by stove, and keeps watch of two or three lines let down through holes in the floor and corresponding holes in the ice. He smokes and reflects, or talks with companion, and is as comfortable as a millionaire before his grate of glowing sea coal. Besides being 8 lazy amusement smelt. fishing is very profitable employment, as the fish are exceedingly toothsome, and bring a good price in the local markets. An attentive and persistent fisherman will make about as much out of his days sport as a laborer, who comes home sore and stiff at night with his hard earned pittance. The genius who sits on his bench and manipulates the little lines is usually jolly, hospitab1e sort of fellow, and is perfectly willing that the blue-nosed skater should seek refuge occasionally in his cosey little house, and permits him to handle one of the lines for while. If he should chance to bring young lady companion with him, the ancient fisherman becomes model of gallantry. He lays his black pipe under the stove, resigns his warm seat to the fair one, and places all his piscatorial resources at her command. It is pleasant to note the im- mense satisfaction with which he resigns to her the line upon which he had just detected timid nibble, and when, following his direc- tion, she hooks the unhappy fish and draws it up through the ice with little scream of min gled terror and delight his eyes shine with appreciation and pleasure.

Belsic Legislators and Their Grogs.

The House of Commons Is sometimes spoken of as the best club in London. Hon. orable members are obliged, however, to pay for what they consume in the way of refresh ments. In this respect the Belgian Chamber of Representatives was till quite recently even a still superior club, for it has been the custom there for some years to supply the members with cognac 'sgrogs" instead of the traditional glass of cold water. Not merely the speakers, but every member present, and even the official shorthand writers and the journalists in the gallery, enjoyed the benefit of this hospitable custom. At o'clock each day the attendants brought in trays laden with stgrogs," which they distributed among the occupants of the different benches AZ o'clock another 'sround'' was served. and yet another at if the sitting lasted so long. Each speakers glass was filled as often as he emptied it and 8 verbose orator would con sume as many as four or five s'grogs,' in the course of his speech. The conYiyial practice was suppressed lately, and buffet has been substituted at which members must nav for their drinks" This arrangement is bv no means to their taste; and M MaIou tbe leader of the Opposition, by way of protest against it, brought flask of brandy into the House with him and calmly proceeded to mix himself 'tgrog" with the aid of the eou sLcTee provided by the State. Other members were not slow to follow the example, and it is said that the spectacle sometimes presented by the Chamber at ''grog time" of an after
 noon, with each legislator busily engaged in compromising his own particular tsbrew. D suggests the idea rather of large chemical laboratory than of House of Parliament.
