A little raggCd beggar child
Went running through the cold and storm;
He looked as it he never smileck:

Sudden, bia spied beneath his feet

Trampled and wet with rain and sleet,
Withered and worthless. there it lay.
He bounded, seized it with delight,
Stood still and shook it free from snow;

His eyes lit up with sudden glow.

THE WID(IIPIAI PLUMS.
One- day the widow McLoughlin, who
lived next the schoolhouse, complained
to Mr: O'Daly that yopng Redburn
had climed up in her plum tree and
stolen her plums. Mr. O'Daly called
Robin up and ordered him to hold out
his right hind.
'What for, Mr. O'Daly?' roared Rob
in , overcome by the frightful injustice
of this proceeding, for never in his
life had he been more obedient- and
well-behaved. 'Whit or, Mr. O'Daly?
I haven,t done anything. All the 'boys
know I haven't done anything.' '
'Ye haven't done anything, eh?' mid
Mr. &Daly; sarcisticolly. 'You're a
fine boy, arn't ye, and a modil to guns
mates? But it,s only just to them I
should tell them what I'm flogging ye
for. More betoken ye ate ivery one of
old Widdy McLoughlin's plums off her
tree, which was thriving. Off with
your locket.' --
'Oh, Mr. O'Daly, how could I, get
out?' cried poor Robin. 'The door
was locked.'‘ •
'That yell's:plain to nie,' said Mr.
O'Daly, wielding his lash unmereibilly.

''There, I've done with ye. Put on
your jacket; never stale again while ye

Poor 4obin, more dead than alive,
rushed to his seat and hid his face in
his arms. Meanwhile, Master — Spratt,
the oldest boy in sohciol. arose in hie
desk and signified his desire to speak.
'Well Spratt, what asked Mr.
O'Day:\ •
'There is but one door to the - room-
Redburn was focked in,' said Sprtktt,
'and there was no other way of. getting
out; the windoW is too high and too
small for any thing bnt a cat, and there
are Spikes c n it. Wait a minute, mas-
ter, I sat by the door, with my legs
acme it, from the minute- you sent
Redburn in, until the minute you took,

'Then the widdy and the boys have
been 'yin' and Wait a minute.
Dunstan, come here!'
Dunstan, another large boy, between
whom an,l Spratt there was a sort •of
fend, as they were-the leaders of rival
factions strode up to the desk. -
'lt:was you told me the widdy tpoke
the truth,' said Mr. -o'Daly. 'Now
give your ividenee.'.
'Well, I shouldn't have mentionepl it,
Mr: ©'Daly,' said Dunstan; I'm nbt a
tellitAle, but you wouldn't believe the
old woman and She told the.
.- truth,
Redburn was op the tree for - an hour
and a half. We boys on the form' by
the window saw him—Stokes, Grady,
Fisher, Pope and I. He ate the plums
and threw them about. If I'm a liar,
there are five of us,' and he looked at
Spratt, who slowly repeated:

his pockets inside out. neither fruit or
stones , were , there, he looked at his
handa;they were unstained by plum ,

'lt's a—falsehood!' screamed little

Mr..' O'Daly was puzzled. He re
'marked that he'd talk the thing over
next day' and settle it. and dismissed
'the school. Instantly instead of a game
of ball, began a battle. Spratti and
his adherents on one side; Dunstan and
hift.friends on the other: Black eyes,
bruised cheeks, and torn clothes were
the result. In two cases the ± doctor
.was sent for. Anxious mothers called
on Mr. O'Daly and reproached him.

School opened next day as usual.
The frations mlrehed back, after a
slight skirmish , ttZsthe Mr.O'Daly
had i a new cane; nicely waxed, upon
his desk: Redburn was there also, .and
a solemn ceremony took place., Mr.
O'Daly cal:ed the boy to the desk, put
one of, those small chtinky Bibles
whieli prevails - in schools upon it, bid
the boy lay his hand upon it and take
his solemn oath to tell the truth, and
,then questioned him:
- 'Where were you, lad, yisterday from
twelve to two?!
'ln that classroom,' replied little Red
burn. •
'When did you -climb the widdy's
plum tree then?' asked Mr. °Dilly.
'I never climbed the plum .tree,'
said poor little Bedburn.,
'Never? You're ou oath!' roared the
pedagogue.
But Itedburn repeated:
'Never!' -
Spratt, Dunstan, and all the other
boys were put on oath / Five of them
swore to seeing Redbarn •in the traz; a
great number to the fact Spratt never
left the clasi-room door. Spratt swore
that Redbnrn did not come out of the
room by that door. And after the ex
amination Redburn was consigned 'to
the class-room with his slate and book,
and the truth was no wore manifest
than before.
At two o'clock, however, something
happened.
The widOwa ppeared at the door, and
requested to speak to Mr. o'Daly. Mr.
O'Dialy went out to her at once. lie
abut the door, and looked at her.
'Well, woman,' he said what IS it
ye're after? Do ye want more money
or yer pound of flesh? ,
Mrs. McLoughlin

'He's looked fast, woman,' said poor
o,,Daly. •Here's the key.'
But he followed her, and .inure, in
the tree, he saw the blue jacket and
brawabuttons, the white collar and the
yellow curly bead of hair that belonged
to Robin Itedburn.
Scarcely believing his eyeg, he lifted
up his voice and called aloud: 'Bed

'Yes, sir,' aua the boy from the tree.
'Come down,' said Mr. O'Daly.
'Come down this minute.' The boy
obeyed. , .

O'Daly.
'Then my father will flog you,' re

thought better of it.
Robin and Richard were,as everybody
knew, the most identical of , twin breth
ers.; Before they moved to Cork, every
body in their town had known of theiii
and been rather. proud of. them as curi= a
osities in the twin line.
.'They are as like as two pays,' the
nurse had said, ivlien Robin . and Rich
ard were a week old.
'They look more like their father than
ho does lig.e himself, ,and there is no
knowing thin arpart,' t r he nurse-maid
had dcelaredt when they were • three
years old.
Mrs. Redbarn, ma'am, dear, how
ever will I be able to know whether I
am doing,the one of them injastice, or
failing to do me ditty by the other ?'
'the governess had asked when they were
ten years old. • _
'lt is simply absurd,' Mrs: Redburn
often Said to her husband. 'Richard
has such noble expression, and Robin
such a heavenly one; and - Richard is 84;
manly, and Robin so graceful, and Rich
ard is more like you than like me, and
Robin more like me than like ion, love."
But common eyes could not .see this
great variety of charms, and mistakes
were constantly being made; and when
school days really arrived it was thought
beet to separate them, that each might
have his own floggings . , which were the
chief eonsitations of the school system
of the last generation.
LINCOLN'S OLD LAW PARTNIS A PAU
PER. - Bill Herndon is a pauper at
Springfield. Illinois. He was once
worth considerable property. His mind
was the most argumentative of any of
the old lawyers in the State, and his
memory extraordinary.
For several years before Lincoln was
nominated for the Presidency, Herndon
was in some respects the - moat active
member of the firm, preparing
, the
greatest number of cases for trial and
=king elaboratt3 arguments in their
behalf.
It is said that he. worked hard, with
Lincoln in 'repairing the memorable
speeches delivered by the man who.
afterwards became President, during the
debates between Lincoln and Douglas'
in 1858, and in constructing the Cooper-
Institute address delivered by Linc4ln
a short time before the war. 1
Herndon, with all his attainments;
was a man who now and then went on
a spree, and it was no uncommon thing
for him to leave an important lawsuit
and spend several days in drinking and
carousing. The habit became worse
after Lincoln's death,. and like poor
Dick Yates, Herndon went doin step
by step, till his friends , and associates
pdint to him as a common drunkard.-

A modern philosopher sticks his
thumbs in the arm-holes of his vest and

of much consequence if one his not the
money to buy it with.' Ab, but then
is the only time when the price is of any
consequence , whatever. Given the
money to buy is, and we don't care how
much the world coats. We'll , buy it
and pay cash for it. '
