How They Live and Die IN the

There are good many people in
the world. This information may
not be startling, but it is so true
that when 1 come to weigh 1t | am
some hat startled myself. It is not
only a fact that the hu man biDed is
numerous, but also thai his habits
and peculiarities are as variegated
aud Irregular as the patchwork in q
crazy quilt. You can't as rule tell
where or when or how the animal
gets along. One half of the world
don't know how the other half lives,
and the latter fraction is generally
glad Of it.
The writer hereof once started

difficulty he experienced, for 1t

led to this conclusion need not be

suit above set forth was achieved
with such consummate ease that 1t

Anonymous Letters.

In all ages, and by all sod men,
a person who would write an anon
ymous letter has been rut down as
rascal, a coward, or g mischief
maker. As rule be is all three of
these, and is about as dangerous
when he pretends to be friend as
when he threatens to kill you in the
dark. a man who dare not sign
his name to what he writes is not
only not worthy Of confidence, but
may be set down as an unprincipled
wretch who is capable of any trick,
no matter how low or degrading it
may be, to carry his point, which is
always a bad one. Let friend or

THE CALEDONIA.
Interesting Meeting Last
Night.

The second sociable Of the Gale
donia Society vas held in the Social
Hall last evening, Douglass A.
Swami chairman. Prof. A. c..
Smyth, with chorus of twenty of
his pupils, Yves in attendance, and
by their splendid musical exercises
contributed very materially to the
enjoyment of the evening. Songs
by Messrs. Elliott, Hull, Smyth and
others, together with several recita-
tions, pithy speech from the chair
man, and two humorous stories told
by Scott Anderson, formed altos
gether period Of unalloysd pleas
ur6.
A large portion of the programme
was imprOmptu, but if last evening
may be taken as promise of what
the society can accomplish in the
way Of entertainments, then the
Caledonia Is an assured success.
Five meetings have 80 far been
held, three for business purposes and
two for social enjoyment. The
members now number upwards of
one hundred, with numerous appli-
cations pending acceptance. Last
evening the opportunity was en-
braced by number of ladies to
sign the constitution, and thereby
become honorary members. A
clause in the rules, or laws, permits
the wives, daughters or lacy friends
OF the male members to become
such members Iof the society with~
out any monetary consideration or
fee being required OF them.
So far the meetings have only
been held on each alternate Satur-
day, but it is the intention to fill in
Il intervening Saturday evenings,
by engaging the services Of inter
esting lecturers on subjects which
cannot fail to attract the attention
of all the society mem bers. a7
A committee on athletics is ma
turing plans whereby it is purp sed
to give the male members the sd-
van ages of gymnasium, and pro-
vide other games, some OF which
can be joined in by the lady
members. A library and read
ing rooms are also contemplated
as one Of the features of
the Caledonia society, in the near
future as also mesnS of pleasurable
relaxation and enjoyments in
several other directions, and which
were designed to come within the
scope of the society. The approach
of pleasant weather. will ba taken
advantage OF for an evenings "out
of doors" sociable; it being intended
to afford every legitimate means of
obtaining genuine pleasure and fun,
to those who are accepted as mem
bers.
So far the majority is composed of
the youth of this city, they being
the especial objects OF the
society; but at the same
time there is nothing to pre-
vent the middle aged and more ex-
perienced citizens, from Joining and
lending their influence and ability
to develop the fullest advantages of
the society. Its aims are such as to
commend it to the good favor OF all
considerate persons. Is is not ma
| tionsl in its character, as indicated
by its name, a1d about one-half OF
it's present members are others than
Scotch people. Every nationality
is welcome.
THE HERALD wishes every sue
cess and prosperity to the Caledonia
Society.

The bill was paid in full, and with
such an apparent lack Of reluctance
on the part of the payor that I got
to yearning for funerals. 1 sought
the society of the sexton and he
became so friendly to me that hei
subscribed for the paper and paid in
advance; and when it died the little
town had seldom seen a costlier
funeral, or a corpse that went TO its
final account with so much unac-
counted for.
Once marriage notice, with soma
accompanying poetry, was sent
in. The bridegroom stood high
in society, and the bride was every
inch a woman; to know her was to
love her. [ loved her So worth, the
am unit Of her subscription. Hus-
bands sre supposed to be responsible
for the debts contracted by their
wives before marriage, and the
event filed me with joy. l went
to the reception, leaving the notice
with the accompanying wine to my
com positor. The poetry was
intended TO be as follows:
Glove is q union Of tive hearts
That beat IN softest melody;
Time with its ravsges imparts
No bitter food 10 ecstscy."
The man drank all there was in
the bottle before setting up the
notice, and the poem appeared IN
this shape:
love is an onion of two heads,
That bust in ssddest misery;
Time with its csbbsges imparts
No better food for extra drays."
The bridegroom was not satisfied;
neither was the claim against his
wife.
