The Genuine aud the sham.

Every good thing has its host of imi-
tators; every genuine article its counter
feits. The imitators always choose the
most valuable and popular article to
counterfeit, so that when they claim
their sham to be equal, or as good, or
the same as "So-and-So's," the public
may depend upon it that "So.and-So's"
article is the best OF the kind. Tho
sham proves the genuine merit OF the
thing it copies and never has this been
better illustrated than by the limitations
of ALLcocK's Porous PLAsTERs.
ALLcocK's Porous PLASTER is the
standard OF excellence the world over,
and its imitators in their cry that theirs
is "as good as ALLcocK's" are only en-
phasizing this fact and admitting
'ALLcocK's" to be the acme OF perfec-
ton, which it is their highest ambition
to initiate. The difference between the
genuine and these limitations, which
copy only general appearance, is as
wide as that between copper and gold.
The only safe way for purchasers is
to always insist upon having AILcocK' S
Porous PLAsrERs. They are the only
perfect pIasters ever produced.

What the Birds Seemed to Sing to a

A rustic swain who loved a damsel
became smitten with her charms. but
had not courage to tell his love. At
length, finding she was becoming an
object of attraction to other SWANS and
that he was in danger of losing her, he
was induced to invite her to walk with
him to spot where lovers are fond of
rambling, up a shady lane. His heart
was full, but his lips were closed he
could not bring his courage to the
popping point, while she, poor thing,
east down her eyes and was perfectly
mute, though she understood for what
purpose he had brought her to that
lonely spot. At length a bird began to
sing on Johns side of the road and a
lucky thought struck him.

IN LONDON STREETS.
Some of the Curious Sights In tho Days Of
Old.

Some OF the Curious Sights In tho Days OF
1t was in the early part of Eliza.
Deth's reign that coaches made their
appearance in London. A highly
ornamented one was constructed for
the Queen, and in il she loved to sit.
bedizened with lace, velvet and gems,
IN view of her admiring courtiers and
subjects. Toward the latter part of
her reign and in that of the First
James, coaches became so much the
fashion that the boatmen and carriers
of sedan chairs made great ado:
but all in vain, though coaches did
not, for long period, entirely SUPER
sede the historic sedan-chair 1t was
in sedan chair that Charles |. was
taken to trial in Westminster Hall,
though he went on foot to the scaffold.
AS late as the time of Queen Anne
a century and half after the intro
ductiOn of cOaches-that booty but
good -natured royal dame went about
in her sedan-chair. OF other historic
coaches we must speak briefly. When
the Car Alexander IL. was crowned,
there was drawn out of its musty re.
treat number of huge old coaches.
on the panels of which were thick in.
crustations of mock diamonds Sew
eral OF these had been in the possess
sion OF that Czarina Anna, who is
famous in Russian history for the
great ice palace she built on the
banks of the Neva; while one had
certainly been brought from England
by Peter the Great himself. When
the English troops entered Pekin.
they found there heavy, densely
gilded coach, which had been sent as
present to the Emperor of China BY
King George Ill nearly century be-
fore. The carriage which the Queen
of England occupies in her state pro.
crosses is considerably over a century
old. The scarlet coaches of Pope and
Cardinals are among the most con,
spcuous objects of Papal Rome.
Finally, the most famous coach that
ever made its appearance on the soil
OF free America was that used by
George Washington, the first Presi.
dent OF the United States 1.-THE
body OF the COACH" says an historian,
was in the shape of hemisphere,
cream -colored, bordered with flowers
round the panels, and Ornamented
with figures representing cupids,
which supported gay festoons." Since
that time-at least, since the demo-
cratic Jefferson-our Presidents have
revealed republican simplicity in
their eQnipages: nor would one OF
our chief magistrates in these days
venture upon the ostentation, in this
respect, which Washington displayed
as matter of course.
