packet on board. “ Bow, sir, move up a

Mr, Edge was exceedingly comfortable,

pearly forehead and shining golden hair I

he did moveup.

were pretty eyes!”
The fair possessor of the blue eyes
shivered slightly and drew her mantilla
closer round her shoulders.
“ Are you cdd, Miss?” Pray, honor

But “Plague,” whoever that mystical

“ Have you room enough, Miss ? I fear
you are crowded. Pray, sit a little closer
to me. ’

The Doctor Outwitted.—When %.

on health, and particularly on the evils of
tea and coffee, he happened to meet one
morning at the breakfast table, witty
son of Erin, of ths better class.

friend as s follows:
, “ you think I would be unable I
to convince yon of the deleterious effect of
tea and coffee ?” I
I don’fc know,” said Brin, “but I would
like to be there when you do it !”
“ Well,” said the Doctor, “ if I convince
that they are injurious to your health

Child and tub Snakk.—Oa
Thursday morning week, a little girl two
oW, of Mr. Wm. McDaniel, who re
sides a few miles from Wheeling, went
K*? S l6 7^ t 0 P la y- In a Short time.
Mrs. McDaniel was horrified at seeing her
little girl coming, tottering along the path
towards, the house with a largo copper
head snake in her hands. The child had
one hand just below tho neck, and the
pother about the middle, and the forked
tongue of tlm venomous creature was pro
jecting from its mouth in, the moat sewage
manner. The mother was almost fright
ened tq death, and our informant says that
she has not gotten over the fright yet.~
A member of the family immediately nut
to the ohild, and, after some difficulty,
succeeded in rescuing it from its perilous
situation without being bitten. The child
evidently thought it had found a pretty
plaything, and the coldness of the morn
ing had undoubtedly benumbed the snake
so that it was not so aotlve.as it otherwise
would have been, ‘ ‘ 1

in any ■'of the east and west streets,
whei» the view is uninterrupted for a long
distance. Remote objects, as horses and

loom upward to colossal proportions. The
illusion is produced by unequal refraction
in the lower strata of the atmosphere, and
its phases are occasionally very curious
