The A. p. a. party is a dandy to

He is bound by a so.em1 oath,
taken in junta, and perhaps
signed with a pen dipped 10 his own
blood. removed from his veins for
the purpose, to o-tuacise large
number of the citiz-us of the

religion Imagine the A. r A.
President, the ruler of this free
country, of free speech and re,i-

who have placed him in power with
a crown of bigotry on his head, Wis
iting the departments, oustiug

having a man at the head of this

A PET LAMBS sAGAcrK.

Having read from time to time in
your pages notable instances of the
sagacity of dogs and cats, it has oc-
Cured to me that the following we'll
authenticated record of the .ntelli-
.gence of a sheep may possess at least
the interest of novelty. Two years
ago,a lamb owned by a gentleman
whose farm lies close to Tough Foyle
was left motherless A yardman in
charge of the flock nursed and fed the
little orphan. She became very tame,
and was petted by her master 8, child
rem. Last year she had grown Into a
Young sheep, with lamb OF her own.
One day some dogs ran through the
pasture grounds, and the frightened
flock scattered and fed through the
field, which, was large one, eloping
toward the shore. The yardman,
.Aleck, banished, the intruders and coll
lected the sheep. as he supposed, into
safety.
An hour or two afterward the pet
sheep rushed past the dwelling house
apparently in great distress. With
piteous bleatings she went to the lodge
gate, where Aleek was sitting at his
MONDAY meal and coming close to
him, seemed to seek his help. AS he
rose from the table she ran out of the
house and straight through the pms
tnre to the shore. He followed her.
and soon saw the cause of her alarm.
Her lamb, terrified by the dogs, had
fed to little peninsula among the
rocks, which the incoming tide had
transferred into an island. Of course,
it could not cross the strait, and the
mother could not save it, therefore
she appealed to the power and sym
pathy OF her human friend. Hel
trust in his help was not disappointed,
and she and her rescued offspring
we're soon safely reunited. -Londor

Land Of Paradoxes.

Australia is really the antipodes OF
the remainder of the world in all re-
spects. Summer time comes during
the time of European winter; the
rising barometer indicates rain, and
the falling the opposite; the swans
are all black and the eagles white; the
native dogs never bark; the serpents
have tails like fishes and wings like
bats; tile prickly pear grows to be a
tall tree, and the poplars and oaks sell
dom grow above five feet in height the
elm has hairs in place of feathers; the
birds are without song; the sun is in
the north ct noon; the chief rivers
run inland; the pear trees grow a fruit
that is beautiful to look upon, but
which when ripe, is as hard as though
fashioned from the wood of the tree
itself; the leaves OF the trees all stand
edgewise and cast no shadows; the
stone or pit of the cherry is on the
outside, and must be cracked in order
to get at the meat; the opossums fly
like bats, the king-fisher never catches
FISH, but lives on fruits; the peas arc
poisonous; the oaks bear no acorns
the chestnuts are without burr, and,
in many instances, the trees are hol-
low, with bark on the outside. -
