De Naixt Lady.

At negro baptising the other day
slim preacher took fat sister down
into the waters of bayou. Just as
he dipped her under the water she
slipped from his grasp and glided un-
der the root of a large cypress tree,
from which sad ENHANCEMENT it was
impossible to extricate her until life
was extinct. The preacher, without
the slightest show of embarrassment,
raised his hands and, turning to the
crowd exclaimed:
"The Lawd gibbeth an the Lawd
taketh away; blessed be de name ob
de Lawd."
"Dat's all right SO fur as de Lawd's
eonsarned,' replied the drowned wo-
mans husband, s'but what's l gwine
to do? I amt got no lection to de
Lawd takin' her away eff he vide me
anodder wife bout de same size"
Ode Lawd knows his own business
said the preacher.
"But dat amt de pint" persisted
the husband. 81 wants a wife, an
wants her right heah. Yersef took
dat oman into de water, an Use gwine

ten mlnnets ter git me wife, an eff
at de end oh dat time you ain done

The preacher reflected for mo-
ment, and, addressing a sister, said:
SISTER Kate, to keep down a distur-
Dance, won't yerse'f marry de gentle
man?n
The sister agreed that immediate
matrlmony was somewhat in her line,
ana then the grief-stricken husband,
turning to the preacher, exclaimed:

first place we have no animosity to.
ward Blackburn, only the supremest,
contempt, and his name would never
appear in these columns we're he not
occupying position, which makes his
maladministration of affairs, a subject
of proper and indignant criticism. In
the second place we have not assailed
the YeOmdn unless il considers ITSELF so
bound up and wrapped up in Black
burn that a criticism Of his abuse of
power, is a thrust at his self-appointed
and selfdebasing organ. And further
if the YcOman considers it only decent
journalism to not only wink at, bat
pat on the back, every official who
trancends or breaks the law, because
he happens to constitute the powers
that be, we prefer not to be consid-
cred of its class.

When that famous gem, the Kohl.

care Of Lord John Lawrence, he stuffed
it into his waistcoat-pocket and went on
with business Dinner time came; he
changed his clothes, and threw his waist
coat aside. Six weeks later message
came from Lord Dalhousie that the
Queen desired the diamond to be sent
home at once. This was mentioned by
Sir Henry at the Board Quoth john

facts came back to him for the first time,
and he said TO himself: "WelI, this is

But he allowed no misgiving to appear.
He soon, however. found an oppor.
tunity OF slipping away to his private
room, and, with his heart in his mouth,
sent for his old bearer and said TO him,

box, and produced the little one from

'sand SEQ what Is inside" He watched
the man anxiously enough, as fold after

and great was his relief when the
precious gem appeared. The bearer
seemed perfectly unconscious of the
treasure which he had had in his keep.
