Villas as a Boy.

From the Saturday Evening Gazette.
A good story is told OF Postmaste,
General Villas in his boyhood by the
gossips of Chelsea, Vt, his native
place, which may OF may not be char
acteristic OF him at the present time.
When he was q little boy, not yet out
OF skirts, he became much disguised
at the prosiness of q Methodist minis
ter, a friend OF his parents, who lived
in the same town. This one was in
vited to dine with them one day, and
asked to offer prayer before eating.
He began praying i'll the long-winded
way which was n characteristic of
those times, and has, unfortunately,
not wholly departed from our own.
Finally, the boy. who was impatient
for his dinner, could wait no longer,
and when the divine hesitated for the
proper word a little longer than was
his wont. he clapped his knife sharply
on the table, and, having attracted
everybody's attention, cried out, For
Christis sake Amen!'' so confusing the
speaker that he was enabled to begin
eating without further delay

Another Story About Ferdinand
Ward.

A wealthy resident OF some pros
porous New England city called on
Ward one day with a note OF intro
duction from amutuai friend. In the
course Of conversation he remarked
that he had some money to invest.
and asked Ward if he couldn't tell
him Of some chance to put it where it
would bring him a good margin OF
profit.
Ward said he really didn't know OF
anything Just then. He himself had
more money than he knew what to dc
with, and besides he was too busy
With some big scheme of his own to
go into any outside speculation. OF
course this only whetted the New Eng
land mans appetite for investment,
and in the course OF half an hour he
induced the famous tinancier to accept
his check for S5S,OOO to he used
in one OF the "blind pools OF which
Grant Il Ward made a speciality.
Three or four months later the New
England man appeared again. BY that
time Ward had entirely forgotten him
and his check, and it was with great
difficulty that he coald recall hisname
and the amount OF his investment
II believe there's something dueyou,"
he said, after n brief conversation.
Taking down a large ledger he made
some brief calculations, and then OBJ
served with u pleasant smile. ''fThe
amount credited to you on our books
is Sl02, 76I." Then to the bookkeep-
cr, tMr. Jones, will YOU kindly draw II
check to Mr.. Herkins's order for SlO2,-
1642"
Ward calmly turned to his work
again, while his visitor sat gasping for
breath. In the language oftheday the
Visitor was ''paralized." 1t WIS some
TIME before he could control himself
sufficiently to ask ii there wasn't any
chance for him to %reinvest his money
and double it again; but Ward didn't
seem anxious. and at last the stranger
took his departure, got hischeck certi-
fled at the Marine Bank. and returned
to his native town. Three days after
he walked into Wards Office in COM
pany with four of the wealthicst ofhis
townsinen. He had his certified check
the same one Ward had given him
in his pocket, and his friends weresup-
piled with checks of their own. They
succeeded in inducing the tinancier to
accept about S35O,OoO forinvestment
in another ''hlind pool" That was
exactly one week before the failure OF
Grant & Ward.

A fire broke out on the 9th inst. III the
Charter house buildings, a row of thirteen
eight-story warehouses, on Alderglte
street London, Eng. Thctiaines spread with
such rapidity that in n few hours the whole
OF the buildings, including the contents,
were almost totally destroyed. The origin
OF the fire is unknown. The row was mostly
occupied by fancy goods dealers, f%urriers,
toy stores and printing Offices. One bank
was also in the building. This institution
was the only one hat escaped being burned
completely out. 1t wastadly damaged but
not destroyed. Thu firemen had great diff
:iculty in getting the streams from the en-
gines to play upon the upper stories OF the
buildings. Many narrow escapes were re-
corded, owing to the desperate attempts OF
the tiremen to get at the ~tia.les. Thedam-
age is estimated at f3, 900, 900.

StulND SpeaEinr.

Ex-senator Boutwell,, in addressing
the Middlesex club in Bostonrecently,
spoke asfollows, seriously" OF stump
speaking: ~ wish to say that the art
Of stump speaking is not II lost art,
it is not Il valueless art, and in a coun-
try like this it is II very great power,
and an art which those who intend to
take mart in public affairs should wisely
culti. ate. In the first place, you can
never know the public sentiment ofthe
community unless you are endowed
with some sort OF c%lairvoyant power,
unless you meet the people; and in
these great assemblies, when you look
into thefaccs OF men and women and
laydown your propositions and pro
coed to makeNour arguments, you get,
bysomemysterious process, an impress
sion as to whatthey think. No discreet
pubiicspeaker, in making speeches eve
ry thirty or forty miles, will, in fact,
make the same speech with which he
began. He will lose the speech with
which he began, and construct a new
one under the dictation OF the audi
ences before him. He is under the in
iiuence of the people, and comes to
realize what they believe, and he
knows what opinions and arguments
will produce effect and what consider
ations are valuelcss. In that respect
the stump speaker has animmense adj
vantage over the newspaper. Now,
the newspaper men will please pardon
me for saying that, while for every
three years and nine months in the
quadrenniai they appear to rule, dur
ing the three months preceding a pres
idential election, when the men who
take part in public affairs present
themselves before the people and pre-
sent the issues and arguments on one
side and the other, the press, omnip.
otent as it is, bows itself to the mer
who canvass the country, and merely
reprpduces the opinions and argu
mesats which the stump orators sci
forth. 1t is difficult to state what tht
art OF oratory is. Great men, from
Qaintilian all along, have underworld
to 'explain what it is, but it is still
mystery. But we know that there ar,
some men under some circumstance:
who, by the voice, by the II anc
gesture, pioduce nol oIly
hut lasting impressions on the mind
Men who possess these gifts IN an,
country OF civilization OF the worlt
will have power. When the man APP
pears who shall express himself as die
Dr~mosthenes, Cicero, Burke, Grattan
or Webster he will have made an III
delible mark upon the history of hi
country, and leave his name for TIL
consideration and admiration OF fl
ture generations"

HE DID HIS LEVEL BEST.

No matter if his skin be black,
Or if his skin be white.
He is Il mnn of honest heart,
Provided he is right.
Though iowly he his task on earth,
His future viii be best.
While Others reached to highest aim
He did his level best.
No civic honors may attend
The tiller OF the soil,
No grand ambition win him from
The paths OF common toll.
Yet when the silken cord is cut,
And he lays down to rest,
The chaplet fame nor grander is
He did his level best.
Though humblest soldier in the ranks
Promotion does not meet,
May shame the man OF golden bars,
Win victory from defeat;
Though laid away in shallow trench
Arms folded on his breast,
Mans verdict is not history
He did his level best.
God bless the man OF lowly lot,
Who swetens life with toll,
Who eats the bread that's honest won
Amid the great turmoil.
No poet pen may sing his praise
When he is laid to rest;
An epitaph more worthy is,
He did his level best"
