The devil said, that he was not sure iijH.n this last n;iut that the editor had made. He thought the statement sounded very lx-autiful a-nl very elo iilent, and he uad no d mht l.ut that it was jMH-tieally corre-t, hut only jHtet ically so. "Have I not," said the editor, -hunted uji tit-l.its of scandal? Have 1 not pried as mtich asMssil.le into jiettple'a j.rivaU affairs for theln-Uetit of the jjeu eral j.ul.lic?" The devil grinned, and winked know ingly at the editor, and said that all this wastoo true to h denied. "And finally," said the editor; "have I not during this cold and sleety weath er. Mood njKiu the street corner, with my pencil in one hand and note-laK.k iu tho other; and have I not watched the U-autifitl, lx-autiful damsels, the airy, dainty damsels, the rollicking, jovial damsels, as they jauntily tripped over the icy j.avi-jiients. And when the dainty heels of these jovial damsels had flown up into the air, and these lieau tiftil damsels have come down hard upon the pavement, have I not given a pictiiresiini! and niinuto account ui the WJciieV" The devil was so much imj.risse.1 with this jiart of the sjusisi-h that he call ed the journeymen, and got the editor to say it over agaiu. The editor said it ov.-r "again word for word, and the devil and the journeymen said it was the finest jiii-cc of cl.Hjiiciiee they had ever listened to. They furthermore said that th.-y would sw"ear la-fore a court and jury that it was every word true. This served to calm dowu the editor very consid -ralily, and he agaiu tok his "seat and engaged in contemplation of his stiliscrijitiou hills. There were a great many for only one year, and those were'tfl.SK. There wen- a large numlH-r f-.r two years, and these were 1.00, and there'were some that had even run for three years, and they amounted to SJ.50 that is siijiiswing that in all of these cases, only advance rates w ere e jarge.L Then he cast his eye over his liooks, and noted those blessed sill .scril n-rs who had paid iu ad-, vance. These In- found to be more than twice as many as all the others together; hut, as we have ln-fore re marked, the editor had already sjM-nt these. Though he gave them the Lest iill'ectioiis of his heart, he fully aji jireeiated that he could not look to them for his supply of dried apples and turnips through the coining year. Now comes the tragic, part of our story. The editor after working over his bills all day, went home to supper. It was nine o'chn-k when he sat down to his evening's meal. This was his usual time for slipping. As w-e have said In-fore, Lis turuij.s were all gone, and he had eaten his days lurriug for dinn. r, so that he only had three ijuarts of dried apples left "for his supjier. These he peacefully and serenely ate. Some may he inclined to think the quantity of food the editor cousiimiil is overstated that three quarts of dried apples w as too much f ir his supper. Iu rely to this, we siuij.ly state, that editors have to rat a great deal more than other jkshjiIu in order to supply their brain j.wer. Having finished his sujijH-r he pulled his chair up to iM lire. Ho had iM.rrowed two lni.il.TaS of c.ml that day, and therefore had an uncommonly good lire. Having pulled his chair to the tire, he turned his lauiji low down to save oil. The tiirncd-dowu lamp cast a twilight shadow oyer the room, and the well till.il tire cast out a comforting glow of heat. Tln-se two conditions, Together with the fact that the editor had eaten a h.iirty suijHir, made him feel a little drowsy. Soon he lujis.i.l in to that state w hich may be described as uot asl.-e, and not awake a kind of half-and-half condition. The dock struck ten and eleven, and still the editor sat in the darkened reoui and enjoyed the ce uiforting glow of tke tire. Tile clock struck twelve and as the last chime died away, there was a mysterious change that came over the editor's surroundings. His lamp went out and he w :is left ill total darkness His utove expanded aud spread until it l.i-ame a mighty furnace of glowing tire. The tlamt's roared and blazed and llasii.il until the editor trembled in dread. Suddenly there sjirang from the tiie a mysterious personage. It was the devil! Not the editor's own devil, not the individual who did all the dirty work iu the office, and who had to bear all the blame for bad sjm-I-ling and other mistakes that occurred in the jiajH-r. no, no, not this devil, but the real, simoti pure, Isma tide devil, the same that lipid intercourse with Dr. Faust, some three hundred years ago. : The printer's devil, it will le under stood, is only an imitatoa of the real devil.' j The editor glanced at his cloven f.M.t, and immediately recognized him. "What may it .!ease you to wan tV ,1 the editor. "VoU art- iir," said the devil. "1 a:n." said t'ae editor. "You have siilienbcrs what won't piv up," sai l tin devil. "I have, said the clitor.

MOKAU Of course all this oceured a Ion.,', longtime ago in the beginning of the year 18S1. but editors are pretty nnieh 'the same set of dish-rags now that they were then, and the ala.ve story there fore teaches several things. It teaches firstly that an editor woit'd not sell his soul to the devil for S'20, 0(H),(tH). It teaches secondly that he would not sell his influenoe to th. devil for teti thousand cash siibscrilera a ye .r. It teaches thiritly that he would uot transfer one tenth of his back sub scri.tion bills to the devil, even though the devil hnld collect tin other uiue-tcutlis-.

Hoth were astonished, for the thief j.roved to le a near neighW, of whom none would have susjHsctetl such con duct Ho pleaded for mercy, begged him uot to expose him, spoke of the necessities of poverty, and promised faithfully not to steal again. " If thou hadst asked me for mea it would have been given tliee. I pity thv povertv and thy weakness, and es teem thy family. Thou art forgiven." The thief w-as greatly rejoiced, and was als.tlt to depart, w hen the (Quaker said : "Take the junk, ueighbor." " Xo, no," said the thief, " I don't want the jioik." " Thy necessity was so groat that it led thee to steal. One-half of the lx.rk thou must take with thee." The thief insiated that ho could uot eat a morsel of it.

I have iust had uiattiim put down iu ' my dining-rtsim, and I watched the uieu all the time they did it They wire A 1 workmen, and the matting was lsmghtat "The Bungalow," and cainc traight from India. They pnt oil-c!oth all around the out. r edge of the door (an oi!-cl..tli with tho matting pattern closely imitated), fitting it neatly ar nnd the doorjainbs and so forth; then the matting was simply a big sqnire jiirce, or rather longer ouo way than the other, such ls-ing the lay of the room; in other words, there were four breadths of mat ting joined together, and the two raw edges wvre Ismiid uea-ly with scarlet leather. The oil-cloth shows about a foot all around leyoud. You've no idea how fresh and handsome it hsiks. In this country the matting only costs 1174 cent, a yard, but I supioso it is dearer m the United States, ou aooouut of the duty. A capital substitute for carjiets is matting, an.l may le used with jierfoct propriety anywhere, even in a drawing, room, and even iu winter. All you've g .t to do to give a nice warm effect in cold w eather is to lay dow u plenty of bright-colored rugs over it. It is such a comfort to feel the sweot cleauliuess of it, too. It can le washed like a pine door, and if, a fter a jieriod of time, you fear the dint has sifted throngh it, it is the easiest thing in the world to lift np a matting door-cloth, made as I have d'serilwd; for, as the workman said to me. " I he fewer tuoks you put in it tho better." Tlie one thing to 1 avoided is having jmckers ur "nicks up" any where, for tho foet wear matting out at these ineqnaliti- s.

Tlie roUber came to her hoiiss at night and demanded her money or her life. She hailn't much money or life either, but she preferred giving uji the former rather than the latter ; so she brought her little store and placed it in his hand. Ho looked it over carefully, to see that sho didn't palm off any twenty cent pieces for quarters, and facetiously told her that he could credit her for only ninety-four cents on the trade dollars, chiding her for taking them at their face value. "Haven't you anything else ot valuo ?" inquired the Wild" bail burglar, looking about the scantily furnished ajiartmeut: " a child's bracelet, ring, anything will Ik; thankfully received. She hail noth ing more, she relied with a sigh. A thought struck him. " Your husband w as a soldier, was he uot ?" She ac knowledged that he was, and was killed in the war. " Then he tnnst have had a revolver," he continued, searchiig hor countenance. "Ah, you grow con fused, you stammer ; your manner lie trays y:ou. (Jet that revolver nt onoe, and givo it to me." In Taiu the woman inijilorod him to sjiare that harmless trinket, almost the sole memoriid of the husl miid sho had lost She had pawned many things w hen in distress, but had always hung on to that. But the roblier was unrelenting. Sobbing bitterly the went to a bureau drawer nnd removed the precious relic, around which clus ter.il so many tender recollections.

A travelling dentist in Australia ad vtitis.s a new method of extracting te. th, without the aid of chloroform or I.a hii,,' uas. When a patient calls .. , iqiin him for treatment, he places him in a chair and makes a fixture of him with straps and bauds. Then he puts the (..reaps to the bad tooth and gives it a terrific jerk inwrd. "That," he says "is the wsy Dr. Smith d.iesit." He gives it another yank iu the opisite direction, remarking: And that is the way that Dr. J.m.- goes to work." By this time the tooth is quite loose. With a gentle pull he forces it out. saying: "But this is the way I do.

Tae old oak in front of j house groaned disc the house irroaned uisn ally. Ibe pates were bunted open, and slammed to and fro uieetsantly. Flora and I cowered tielber in the par lor, more and more frightened as the hours went by. Our house waa alone, county mansion, several miles from t'ae county town, and we were quite alone, all the family, including even the servants, baring gone to the anuual fair, and intending to stay till inorniiur. "I never beard such gtraiiije souudi," said. "Surely that win 80UR.-b.xly on the stoop just now." "Nou-cnse." cried Horn looking around nerveously, however. "It was only two nichts ago.': I rc!yed "that Mr. Brown's house wa robbed. They do say," and here mr voice fell to a whis per, -that an organized gang of thieves is goiug round the country." "Mercy!" cried Flora, turning deadly pale, "supjiose they come here. What's to Iwiiom ? Xlad'nt we better go over to cou sin Bell'b?" "What! at this lime of night? 2votliing would tempt me. "This is a punishment for refusing Cou sin Sam," Said Flora. "If you bad only behaved rationally, we would have bad one of the servants from El wood to stay with us. hit I suppose Cousin Bell U so angry at the way in which you have treated her sin that she will never speak to us aifaiu." 1 hail no reply to make, I already, in my Heart regretted the cinjuetry which bad made me refuse Cousin Sam, but was too proud to admit ic to anybody but myself. To turn the conversation, ami, en deavor to inspire Flora as myself with cour age, i went to the piano. But twfore 1 could strike a note my attention was ar rested by a grating fsund that seemed to come from under the tloor. I glnncc-d at Flora. She was trembling from head to foot "Ob, llnse: she whistiered, "someone in getting into the cellar. We shall all be murdered, ana she rung her bauiis tieqv- les-ly. Ye both listened. But I heard nothimr hut the beating of my heart I was natu rally a oward, and my resolution was taken at once. Flora," I whispered, "you bang away on the j.iauo, so that if there is any one be low stairs be wilt not tuspect that we heard linn.

But I beard only Flora playing on the piano, the gates banging and slamming, and the old oak creaking in the gale and knocking with its branches against the bouse. "What cowards we are, after all, I slid to myself, boldly raising the trajv door and j.ecrinir d iwn iuto the cellar. 1 could sec nothing, but the air smelt of ruin. 'One of the windows must he opened," I said. "1 heard the rain dashing in. That exjilaius the queer noise,' 1 descended the sturs, inteuding to shut the window. Gradually my eyes became more and more accustomed to the darkness. When I reached the bo'toin of the steps 1 turned around to look for the window. Great heavens it was not there. My heart stopped beating. I ciungto;so that the lioness couple were com- the cellar steps. As 1 looked the window reappeared, now plainly wide ope a. I stood staring at the patch of faint, gray light for a full minute, then laughing si lently at my fears, and persuading myself that the shutters tail blown to, and now bad hlcwn open again, I advanced, intending to fasten the shutters securely. I had not gone more than half way across the cellar, following the wall, when the window was olisrurcd acain, and a gruff v iice cried: Here leud a fellow a band.1 At that uio tueut 1 saw a burly form creep through the window. My knees absolutely gave away under nio, as another voice behind me ans wered: We had better wait till the family go to bed. In a moment however, 1 re covered myself, ami turned to fly up stairs even at the risk of being caught by the ruffians behind me. But, before I could move a step, the trap-door tell with a bang, and 1 knew that i was shut in hopjlessly with two, if not more, burglars. There was a horrible silence. But for the support the wall gave me I would have sunk to the ground. Directly one of the ruffians tried to light a match. I heard the scrape on his Imot, nnd saw the Came for a moment; but fnituuately the wind blew it out The imminent perd gavs me sudden strength. To attempt to raise the trap-door from lielow was impossible for me, 1 knew. My ouly uojw ot escajie was thiough the window, aud toward it I fled as swiftly and aoislessly as possible. I re membered that an einj.ty vinegar barrel stood almost directly under it Ou this 1 siranz, and, clutching the sill above, was about to draw myself up, when the near est burglar discovering me, darted at me with an oath. He was. luckily, just one instant too late. (Juick as. a tiish I was up on the sill and out of the window, and hail run around the house to the front en terance. As 1 turned the corner of the house I saw a man approach from the op posite direction, aud m this moment Flora came to the door with a light when we discovered that the man was cousin Sam. I did not have the hysterics. I d-d not faint But forgetting every thing except mv hanniness and sense of relief in Cousin Sam s presence, 1 flung myself into bis arms, saying. "Sam, dcartiim." and know not w hat else besit'es. Mv storv vou see ls told. la a minute or two. Cousin Satn started for the cellar, hut the burgnlars had taken the alarm and flown.

It would aj.jH-ar from the professoi's nar ative that Thomas Coltheart, a resjK-e-table law agent, whose legid business had lieimn to nourish, took a Is-tter style of house iu Mary King's close. Their maid servant w as, of course, duly warned by obliging neighbors that the hove was haunted, and in terror she gave u her situation and fled, leaving Mr. and Mrs. Coltheart to face whatever they might see alone. Accordingly it came to pass that, when tho lady had seated herself by the liedside of her gtldemali, who,leiug slightly indisjioscd ou the Sunday afternoon, had laid down to rest, while she read the s-rij.tures, chancing to look up, she saw to her in tense dismay a hutnau head, ajqiareiitly that of an old man, with a gray floating lx-ard, susjH'iiiled in mid-air, at a little distance, and gazing intently at her! with elfish eyes. She swooned at this terrible sight, a-nl reuiiined insensible till the neighlsirs returned from church. Her husband strove to reasou her out of her credulity, and the evening iassed without further trouble ; but they had not lecu loua in Ih'.I when he himself espied the same phantom head by the firelight, floating iu mid-air, an.l eyeing him with ghostly eyes. He lighted a caudle, and betook him to prayer, but with little effect, tor in alsmt an hour the Wliless phantom was joined by that of a child, also suspended iu mid-air. an,I this was followed by au arm miked from the ellniw, which in datiaace of al" Coltheart 's prayers and pious interjec tions, seemed bent ou shaking hand with him and his wife! In the uios solemn way the luckless lawyer con jured these phantoms to intrust him with the story of any wrongs they wished lighted; but all to no ptirjMise. The old tenants evidently regarded the new as intruders, and others came to their aid, for the naked ami was joined by a sjiectral dog, which curled itself up ou a chair and went to sleep : and then cirue a cat and many other creatures, but of grotesque and monstrous forms, till the whole rooui swarmed with them, jHjlle.l to kneel on their lied, there U ing uo standing room ou the floor ; till, sud denly, with a deej) and awful groan, as of a strong man dying in agony, the whole vanished, and Mr. and Mrs. Colt heart found themselves alone. Iu those days of stijH-rsition,Mr. Colt heart if we are to Wlicf Tn.f. Sinclair must have lceu a man of more than ordinary courage, for he continued to reside in this terrible house till the day of his death, without further molesta tion; but when that day came, it would seem not to have been aceumpauied by tho sunematiiral. At the moment he exjiired, a gentleman, whose friend aud law ho was, while asleep iu bed ln-side his wife, at Tranent, It) miles distant, was aroused by the nurse, w ho had bi-cii terrified "by something like a cloud moving alamt the room." Starting nj. i-ith the first instinct of a Scot, in those days, he seized his sword to defend him self, when "the something" gradually assumed the form and face of a man, who looked at him pale and ghast!y,au.l iu whom he recognized his friend Thom as Coltheart. "Are you dead, and if so. what is your errand ':" he demanded, despite his fears, on which the appari tion shook his head twice and melted awav. 1 roceeiiiug ai once io cunning.! , the ghosteer went direct to the house of ,. . i.T- I.

Mount I-aowai is one of the Blue Mountains, a low range crossed bv '"' Suake Biver. la.ler Itown. Eider daek farming, which is one. of the sources of Iceland's wealth, is about the only thing that is protected, aud the worst of crimen that can lie committed is to discharge firearms w ithin hearing distance of the farms. By a long and rigid enforcement of tiie ordinance it would to-tlav 1m no more outrageous for a New-Yorker to go to the ojiera iu his shirt sleeves than for an Icelander to shoot within hearing of the ilucks. Iu consequence the farms are maintained, an.l year by year the ducks seek out the island, where they are protiftetl against their natural enemies and furnished with abundance of food. The owners of most of these duck farms are engaged in fish ing, and all the refuse of the codfish dressed ou the islands is thrown out ou the water for the ducks to eat. Some of the farmers have lately retired from the ciilfishing, which, in the vicinity of Reykjavik, is no longer good ; but still the ducks come and build their nests, but not iu such great uhiiiIhts as lie fore. When one sees the treatment the bird gets, their annual return is strange and lmaee. mutable, for they are systemati cally robK-.l by the island owners. In the sj.ring, when the ducks swarm her to search out places lietweeu the rocks to build their nests in, they, having sehfted a suitable site, pluck tlie dwu from their breasts that soft, silky down, famous the world over as the warmest and softest of coverings. Felt between the fingers it resembles doss silk, it is so soft, and it is as springy as rubln-j. A great bulk of it can lie compressed into an incredibly small sjiace, and when re leased idter a long time it resumes its original size. The fir. t j.liickiug is very abundant, for the bird is preparing for warm weather ami is prodigal of its thick under plumage. The first nest is stolen by the farmers, and the bird fiuding it gone, finds still enough down on its breast to construct another, which in turn is taken like tho first Tlie supply cf down on the female is now exhausted, aud she culls ujh.ii the drake, and from his down the nest in which the eggs are hatched is made. Ill case this nest should be taken the bird seeks another lust hiding place. When taken from the nest the down is full of straw, chijM, bits of moss and wads of lichen, mid must lc cleaned 1h fore it is tit for il.se. The machine used iu the process of cleaning is of the most primitive kind, aud consists of a sort of harii ma. I.' of coarse strings of raw seal hide, over which the nest is rubbed. In this ojK-ratioii the dust i driven out, and the room in which it is jierfoniicd is as cloudy as the carding room of an old oakum walk. The chijs of straw, niotss and lichen fall through, and only the down remains tinder the rubbing hand of the opt-rutor. Even iu the matter of eider down there is a discrepancy be tween the real thing au.l the received notions al.out it. We have seeu eider down presented for sale ill New-York which was pure white, while the real article is a dark slate color, and, when viewed at a distance, looks not unlike the fur of the blue fox. There is eider down and eiderdown. There is eider down taken from birds that have been killed ia tlu far north, there- is eider down half from killed binls and half from robbed nests, and there is eider (?) taken from g-'ese in Long Island "d New Jersey, au.l sold to other inemK-rs of the fam.il in New York.
