Among the advertisements of lost
dogs in the columns of daily paper
there recently appeared one which, after
describing infinitely all the points of the
lost canine darling, the wart on his cold,
cold nose, the entire lack of a tail,
which, unlike that of the classic Rab,
was not even represented by "bud,"
added to its descriptive catalogue these
pertinent words rather leggy."
Now, If there is ever pedestrian on
earth who needs TO be "rather leggy," il
is lost dog. He is an Ishmaelite of
CANNES. Every mans hand Is turned
against him, because more than half
the people who see him think he Is mad.
And he is. Right-down mad to think
he was such a fool as to go and get lost.
And he losses his head when he has
most need of it, and gets mixed up with
peoples legs, ladies' dresses, children's
perambulators, horses legs and the evil
eve of the Policeman, who tries to hit
him, and whacks an unOilonding boy
who stopped To see the fun. Then the
lost dog becomes "rather leggy," He
legs IL for home, toward which all
points of his compass turn ut once. He
Is hot and homesick, dusty and footsore,
target for stones and brickbats, but he
is Logging IL Tor life now, lie lies the
city like a blue streak; he shoots through
fam yards and along highways; his
tongue hangs out of his mouth; his eyes
are fixed. At last familiar something
greets him with welcome. He Is on the

down, joys along comfortably and final
ly walks in sheepishly at an open door
turns around three times, drops in a
tired, dusty heap, and not even the tears
of Joy shed over him can rouse him tC

the effects of being "rather leggy."--

THE PRIZE POEM,

Bring" cried the editor man, ssOh, bring
Ere the robins nest in the linden trees
Aud the smell of pansies ladies' the breeze
poem made to the theme of spring;
No hackneyed, palsied, senile rhyme
Poets have sung since the birth of time,
But new, appropriate, beautiful thing
The poets gathered from far around
The poets of high and of low degree
And tuning their Tyres to the concert o,
They filled The air with vernal sound;
They sang of the sun and the April showrs,
OF the brooks and the birds and the budding
fowrs-
But the editor bit his thumb and frowned.
At last to the EDITORS presence
slender youth with bilious eye,
And never he deigned to make reply
To the EDITORS Quest to know his name;
But when he unfolded his poem there
The shouts that ravished the cold, pale air
Bespoke the poets eternal fame.
Twas not a lyric of purling rill,
Nor ballad of bird rhyme of 6ow'r,
Twas not poem of bossoning bow'r,
Nor song of sheep on the distant HILL
All, no, this beautiful Owed to Spring
Was a much more plain and practical thing
Twas SPHERICAL four-grain quinine pill,

A Death Warming.
From casselps Greater London.l

From Casselps Greater London.l
Towards the close of November, 1779,
Lord Lyttleton had gone down from
London to Pitt Place for the purpose
of spending a week or two in field
sports or other recreation, and he had
taken with him gay party of friends.
On the oath of that month he had re-
tired to bed at midnight, after spend
ing the evening at cards with his
guests, when his attention was attracted
by the futtering of bird, apparently
dove or pigeon tapping at the win
dow of his bedchamber. He started,
for he had just put out his light, and
he was about to compose himself to
rest, and sat up in bed to listen. He
had gazed and listened for minute or
so, when he saw, or at all events fancied
that he saw, female clothed in white
enter-whether by the door or by the
window we are not informed-and
quietly approach the foot of his bed.
He was somewhat surprised, and not
agreeably surprised, when the figure
opened it's pale lips and told him that
three days from that very hour he
should cease 10 live. In whatever
