PRIV1TE ALIENS DUEL STORY.


From the Philadelphia Times.
During the debate of the Pension
Appropriation bill last week, Congress
man Meredith, of Virginia, and Con-
gresham Funk, of Illinois, almost
came 10 blows. There has been some
talk of duel from day to day, and
everybody knows that the Virginian
would as lief fight as not. He is a very
nervous man, while the Illinois states
man is as cool as cucumber in re-
frigerator. Congressman Jonn Allen,
of Mississippi, said:
eff Meredith and Funk ever came to-
gether on the field of honor, l am afraid
they might be reconciled before they
would kill each other. Down in my
neighborhood once upon a time there
was bad feeling between two lawyers,
and it was decided that only blood
could wipe out the enmity which ex-
listed. A challenge was sent and duly
acknowledged. The hour was APP
pointed and the two men met in Sc
cluded spot. One of them was great
sufferer from Saint Vitus's dance, the
other was cool and collected.
AS they faced each other the aff1ict-
ell man began to tremble from head to
foot, while his pistol described an arc
with varying up and down strokes.
His opponent stood firm as a rock
waiting for the signal to fire. Before
it came, however, he laid his pistol on
the ground, walked into the woods, and
cut limb off tree with a fork in the
end of it. This he brought back and
stuck in the ground in front of his an
tagonist. Then, turning to the second,
he said: L must request you to ask
your principal to rest his pistol in that
fork
"'What for asked his opponents
second.
"'Well, replied the other, L have
no objection to running the risk of
one shot, but l certainly do decline
having one bullet making a honey
comb of me- If that man was to shoot
while his hand is shaking the way it
is now he would fill me up full of holes
at his first shot
This was too much for the seconds,
and, by mutual agreement, truce
was patched up and no shots were ex-
changed. l think if Meredith and
Funk were to fight, Meredith's hand
would shake-and they would both
shake hands,

STOP MY PAPER.

After you get angry and stop your
paper just poke your finger into hot
water, pull it out, and look for the
hole Then you will know how sadly
you are missed. A man who thinks
a paper cannot thrive without his
support ought to go off and stay a
while When he comes back half his
friends will not know he has gone,
and the other half will not care cent
while the world at large kept no ac-
count of his movement. You will find
things that you cannot endorse in
every paper. Even the Bible is rather
plain, and hits some hard raps. If
you were to get mad and burn your
Bible, the hundreds of presses would
still go on printing it, and when you
stop your paper, and call the editor
names, the paper will still be publish
ed, and, what is more, you will read
it on the sly.
The list of stop-my-paper! fellows
who afterwards borrow it every week
from their neighbors is large.

MIR. COFFEY AND HIS GROUNDS.

From the Cincinnati Tilnes-Star.
Perhaps the last specimen of wit
that has enlivened Hamilton county
court in many day was that emitted
like a flash from John CoffeY, the at
tornev who has been guilty of good
many things that had disturbed the
serenity of bench and bar. Mr.. Coffey
was counsel in a case which had al
ready been postponed some two or
three times at his request. 1t was be-
fore Judge Outcalt. Again Mr. Coffey
asked for postponement. The court
reminded him that it had already
been postponed several times at his
request.
Have you good grounds for wish
ing another postponement?" asked
the Court.
Eyes sir,I have" replied Coffey.
what are they?" asked the Court.
"Coffey grounds, your Honor"
Coffee grounds?'' repeated the
Judge.
Yes, SIR said John.
Then the Judge got on>his dignity,
and reminded the lawyer that he was
triilng with the Court.
Your Honor said Mr. Coffey,
"there was a small addition to my
! family last night, and submit to your
Honor, that this is good grounds for
asking for postponement.n
| Did John get it? Well, rather.

They had been guying a mountain
member of the Kentucky Legislature
about the brand of grammar he used
until he was sick of it. One day a
clerk brought him written petition
of some kind to give all opinion on

inquired the clerk, spreading it be-
fore him.
No, he said sharply, as he glanced
over it. ''Td say it was all wrote"
and the clerk never said a word.

THE Divine CHILDHOOD.

Did angels hover DER His head
What time, as Holy Scripture saith,
Subject and dutiful He led
His boyhood's life at Nazareth?
Was there an aureole round His hair,
a mystic symbol and sign,
To prove to every dweller there,
Who saw Him, that He was divine?
Did he in childish joyance sweet.
Join other children in their play,
And with soft salutation greet
All who had passed Him in the way?
Did He within the Rabbits schools
Say ALeph, Beth. and GiDaeL mid
The Jewish lads, or use the tools
AT Joseph's bench as Joseph did?
And sometimes would He lay His head,
When tired, on Mary's tender breast,
And share the meal her hand had spread,
And in her mother-love and rest?
We marvel-but we only know
That holy, harmless, undefiled,
In wisdom, as in stature, so
He grew as any mortal child.
All power. all glory hid away
In depths of such humanity,
That henceforth none might ever say
They had lowlier lot than He!
And since the child of Nazareth
Set on it thus, His seal and sign,
Who-till mans sin hath married it-saitt
That childhood is not still divine!
