be very great. says the London News.
We hear from the Bible society of a
curious case. In the first edition of
ST. Matthew in Micmac the translator
found when he came to revise it that
in chapter xiv, z, instead Of Nation

ten, "A pair OF snowshoes shall rise
up against pair of snowshoes." And

aware Of the rarity and consequent
prices of eggs in California and having
five dollars still left with which to paw
for breakfast for two, they calmly or
dered their usual breakfast of eggs and
toast. When the bill was presented the
young gentlemen saw, to their con-
sternation, that the amount was $40.
They had only So. What was to be
done?
After a consultation together It was
decided that one of them should remain
while the other went out to look for
Colonel Gift, an old time friend whom
they knew to be in the city. The colo
mel was soon found, who, after hearing
the story Of his young friend and ask
ing who was with him, inquired what
they had had for breakfast. Eggs"
was the reply.
