ALEoNfNE ENCOUNTER.
History of Fight With
q Lion in Algeria.

A very dramatic narrative OF an en-.
counter with lion is published by an
Algerian paper. 1t appears that for
months past farmers residing near a
forest in the African colony have been
Victimized by the lion, which carried of
their cattle. and especially evinced par
,ialIty for their sheep. Exasperated bv
the gaps made in their small RocSs, it
was determined 10 make war on the dep.
redator, and seventeen settlers, With Eve
or six Arabs, set out on what proved q
very perilous adventure. They took up
their position in parties of four or i've,
at certain spots in the forest which It
was conjectured the animal would pass,
and towsrd pightfail the enemy was
seen coming leisurely along by one of
these parties, numbering five men. A.
ter consulting together 1t was decided
that they should fire simultaneously, and
at given signal they did so, the lion
being seen to fall, uttering tremendous
roar OF psin. He was not dead. how
ever, as the men too quickly imagined,
and when they approached the animal he
rose to his feet, crushed Que Of his as

Editing a Paper.

Editing q paper is q very nice bust
ness, and those who know nothing about
it consider it a very easy business. II
we publish jokes people say we are rat
tle-headed, and if we omit jokes we are
told We are an old fossil. II we publish
original matter they blame US for not
giving selections, and if we publish Sc
lections folks say that we are lazy for
not writing something they had not read
in some other paper. Ignorant of what
good editing is, people imagine the get
ting up OF selected matter to be the east
est thing in the world to do, where it is
really the incest work on the paper. If
they find the editor with scissors in
hand. they're sure to say, "Eh! that's
the way you get up original matter. eh ?"
accompanying their new aud witty q1es.
tions with an idiotic wink or smile
The facts are, that the interest, the
morality, the variety and usefulness OF
paper depends in no small degree upon
its selected matter, and few men are ca
pable Of the position who would not be
able themselves to write many of the
articles they select. A sensible editor
desires considerable selected matter be-
cause he knows that one mind cannot
make as good paper as five or six. II
we give man complimentary notice,
we are censured for being partial, and If
we fail to give complimentary notices
we are informed that we are bog. II
we insert articles that please the ladies,
the men are jealous, ana If we do not
cater to the wishes of the ladies', the pa
per in the dear ones opinion is not fit
to make hustle of.
II we remain in our Office and attend
to our business, folks say we are too
proud to mingle with our fellows; but if
we go out, they say we never attend to
our business. II we wear old clothes,
it is insinuated that business is bad. aud
il we wear good ones, they say we are
extiavaeant.
A newspaper and newspaper editor
that people don't talk about and some
times abuse, are rather poor concerns
The men and business thst an editor
sometimes feel it duty to defend at the
rick OF making enemies OF another class,
are the first to show ingratitude. TIE
editor who expects to receive much
charity or gratitude will soon ind out
his mistake; but beshould go ahead and
say aud do what he conscientiously
thinks right, without regard to the
ire ewns OF smiles. - Our Society JoxrnG2

SONG OF THE HOUsEKEEPER.

Sweep. sweep. sweep.
In the short December days.
And dust, dust dust,
In the summers silvery hazel
Its OIL to be slave,
And forever q duster fiirt.
And wear the years of our life away
In hand to hand battle with dirt.
Sweep. sweep, sweep,
While the dust rises up to our eyes.
And scrub, scrub. scrub.
Then drive out those horrible fiesl
Husbands hungry and tired,
With buttonless trousers and shirt,
Meekly retire fIom the awful scene,
Whilc we fight pitched battle with dirt
Oh! men with brow serene,
How much work you make for your wives!
Leaving your boots ani shoes under foot
And eating cake, tarts and pies.
Cook, cock, cook,
To meet the demands of our kin,
And bake. bake, bake,
Though the heart is faint within.
Oil for little change,
A respite however brief!
From petty trials Of housework free
From mutton, pork and beef.
New songs to gladden. the heart,
To ali would be far more sweet
Than that old. old tune by housekeeper's sung;
"What shall we have to eatp"
Oh! but to breathe the breath
OF the fragrant new mown hay!
And in pastures and woodlands green
To wander far away,
For one short hour
| Away from the housework to steal,
And dreamily rest by a babbling brook
Wholesome one else cooks the meal.
