An artist, who wished dog to pose
for him as engaged in fishing excur-
sion, procured large, low tsb, which
he filled with water and live fish, and
engaged boy to sit there and fish all
day with baitless hook. This suited
the dog excellently, and he would sit
at tho tub all day watching fish with
the same patience that he formerly
showed on the river bank. Once, in
his eagerness. he jumped into the tub
after the fish, but usually his attitude
was one of calm watchfulness, which
exactly suited the artist.

THOSE who have time and inclination
are doing a good deal of speculation
regarding the Secretaryship of the
Treasury, taking it for granted that
Mr.. Manning will never return. 1t is
quite evident however, that President
Cleveland hopes he may, and he is not
considering succession in any form
that comes to the public. It NAV be
aid that Mr.. Fairchild, the able Acting
Secretary, would fill Mr.. Manninp's
place admirably, although he is not in
any sense apolitican or party manager
like that gentleman. Mr. Fairchild is
" modest unassuming man and has
no ambition for the place. He thinks
that a man of national reputation
would naturally be selected for one Of

visers. and he does not expect that he

says the immediate cause of his death was
erysipelas, the outcome of malignant car

LONDON TRUTH: The sympathy felt
for the French Princes is confined to
tho people who are in the habit of fire.
quenting their soirees and to the
scribes who celebrate their virtues.
They ought to be expelled. Would
Cromwell have ever dreamt. of allowing
Charles IL. hold a species of court in
London, and 10 plot and intrigue in a
London house against the Government?
No more than Bismark allows the Duke
of Cumberland to reside in Hanover or
the King of Italy allows the ex-King OF
Naples to residein that city.
