What to Read.

Read the good old books that have
lived and held their own by the vital
ity Of matter and style that makes
them standards. Don't read lot of
new books about the Bible. Read the
Bible, and then you will understand
what you may afterward read about
the Bible. Read Shakespeare, not con-
troversies on Shakespeare; read Scott
and Thackeray and Dickens and George
Eliot. Do not be content with short
history Of literature that tells you their
best works and makes a few discon-
nected extracts and tells you their
standing and what you should think
of them.
Read intelligently and with interest,
and every book you read will guide
you to the next that is good for you
personally far better than a strange
mentor can do, who is often full Of
theories and prejudices or perhaps has
got up course of study as pot boil
er" and has no real love of his subject.

How Gallant Irish Regiment Took
an After Battle Scolding.
The leading regiment of our column
was the Fifty-third, commanded that
day by Major Payn. afterward General
Sir William Payn. X. G. B., very fine
regiment, who, being mostly Irishmen,
We're eager to meet their enemy. Mean
while received orders to cross the riv-
er by ford and get round the enemy's
right flank. and 1 had gone for this
purpose and was crossing about quar-
ter of a mile lower down. when sud-
denly l heard loud cheering and q
heavy musketry fire, and then l saw
our troops CALAMITY advancing across
the bridge to the assault.
1t turned out to be the Fifty-third,
who, tired of the delay under fire and,
it was whispered, hearing that Sir
Colin had sent for his pet highlanders
to take the bridge, took their bits be-
tween their teeth and without any
further orders determined to rush the
bridge themselves, which they accord
ingly did, and with great success. The
enemy, once forced out of their posi-
ton, showed but poor, desultory
fight and. as at Cawnpur, fell an easy
prey to the cavalry, who, having cross
ed, some by the bridge and others, in
Guiding myself, by the ford, fell on
them and pursued them with such sue
cess that we captured every gun they
had.
The Fifty-third were well pleased
with themselves and the result of the
fight they had so suddenly initiated,
but we heard that Sir Colin was great
ly annoyed with them and after the ac-
ton rated them soundly for their in
subordination. But little did these
wild Irishmen care. They had had
their fight, and real good one, so far
as they We're concerned, and as Sir
Colin concluded his speech Of rebuke
they gave him three cheers. and giving
three cheers more for General Mans

had formerly commanded their regi-
ment. they quite upset the chiefs equa-
nimity. but at the same time cleared

George Gerard and wife and their

home from their visit, in the north

A letter from Hon. T. r. Wallace,
who has arrived in Crefeld, Germany,
together with his family, and taken
charge OF the United States Consul
ate there, discloses many interesting
things of their first experience in a
foreign land. Mr.. Wallace's friends
are aware of the fact that he is not
foolishly prodigal with his money,
and that of all things which will
serve to rutfie his temper is an attempt
to fleece him. Upon the arrival of the
party at Crefeld they were escorted
to hotel by Will Phelps, who was
with his father at the post. The pro-
prietor declined to state what the
bill for their accommodations would
be until the following day, and at the
appointed time declared that the
party would be worth about S62 90 a
week to him. AS there are but four
adults and three small children in the
party Mr.. Wallace thought that this
was too much and made arrangements
to Immediately lodgeat another place
To this the landlord would not con-
sent, saying it the fees were too high
he could reduce them tritle. The
upshot of their arrangement was that
he doubled the number of their rooms,
made several concessions, and cut his
price to less than half what he orlgi-
nally asked. MIR. Wallace felt that his
protestations We're quite profitable to
him. In speaking of the first impress
sions they had of Germany he alludes
to the country in the highest terms,
finding the people and their customs
pleasant to look upon. -The Atlantic

An Effort to Sneak.

Dogs in a native or wild state never
bark. They simply whine, howl and
growl. The noise which we call bark
ing is found only among those that are
domesticated. Columbus found that to
be the case with the dogs he first
brought to America and left at large
for on his return he tells us that they
had lost their propensity to bark. Sci
entific men say that barking is really
an effort on the part of the dog to
speak.
