A GOpD CifICKIL4 STORIG—An irasci
ble sea captain settled down to Port
land life by the side of a well tempered
man, and the two got along very well
until the hen question came up. Said
the captain:
'I like you as a neighbor: but I,don't
like yOtir hens, and if they trouble me
any more I'll shoot them.' •
The mild mannered neighbor studied
over the matter some, but knowing the
captain's reputation well by report, he
replied:
'Well, if we can't gel along any other
wakshoot : the hens,-but I'll take it as
a favor if you will throw them when
dead over into our yard and yell to my
wife.'
'AU right,' said the captain. -
The next day the captain's gnu was
heard, and a dead hen fell in the, quiet
man's yard. The next day another hen
was threwn over, the next two; and the
day after three.
'Say,' said the quiet 'man, 'couldn't
ynn scatter them along a little? We
really ()ail dispose of the number you
are , -
'Give 'em to your poor
,relations,' re-
plied the captain gruffly.
And the quiet man did. He kept his
neighbors_ well supplied with chickens
for some weeks. - • ,
One day the captain said to the
,quiet
man: 'I have. half a dozen nice • hens
I'm going, to give you if -you'll keep
quiet 4otit this affair.'. '
'How is that?' said the quiet man.
'Are you sorry because you killed my
hens?'
'Your hens!' said the captain. 'Why
air, those hena_belonged, to my wife! I
did'nt know she had any until I fed you
and your neighbors all .summer out of
ber flock.'
Firma Tim CaPrars.—A story con
mning George Francis Train,is worth
relating. It was in the early day ,of
Australia.- A gruff old sea captain ' on
one of the , 'steamships had Wined strict
orders that no gentlemen should fre
quent the parlor reserved for the.ladies.
As his order was not obeyep, he made
•
a raid on the,pador, and six gentlemen
were rudely rejected. They visited
the caotaizi's room, and protested so
violently against the indignity that be
put themin•irons. Arriviogin Australia
they sought the vengeance of the law.
Society was in a crude — state, and the
case was heardby the board of magis
trates. The captain urged in his de
fence that six passengers had thrown
him on a sofa in his own cabin.. The
magistrates, however, find him £6,000
and committed him until the fine was
paid. .There were no higher courts in_
those days, and of course theie Was no
appeal. - The captain had not the
money, and , the delay of his vessel
would ruin him. Prayers for clemency
were of no avail. George Francis Train
was a spectator. He stepped forward,
told the magistrate who' he 'was, and
asked permission to advise -the captain
in private. After an absence of half en
hour Mr. Train returned, He was pro
ceeding ,to address thecourt, "When .'one
of the - magistrates asked where the
cajitain was. "I don't kow," said the
great evolutionist. "He is no client of
mine. I . left him outside." A search
was made, but the captain had escaped
to his vessel, and a line of black smoke
in ihe offing showed till he was • ofi for
England. .

her dock at Hoboken- „yesterday the.
most disconsolate immigrant of whom

ashore. f This waif from the other : con
tinent was black and blue as to his sous :
countenence and very lathe as to his
walk. When - Adam -, Baumann—for
that was ihejdejected Gernian's name—
boarded the Sailer at Braden two weeks
ago' his cheeks was rosy, his eyes spark
led future seemed to be equalled
in Sunrise tints only by that of the fair
maiden, Rosins Ludwig, who clung to
his arm. Adam and Rosins were lovers
in Witrtenbarg, and as the girlsparents
opposed the Match the young folks left
post-haste one night for, America, here
to be married upon the day of their ar
rival But it so happened that Rosin's
pretty white teeth, between lips as red
as ripe cherries, together with other
attractions of lade and form, caught
every mescaline eye on shipboard, and
in a day or so after the departure from
Bremen she was the belie of the steer
age. In a moment 'of jealousy Adam
charged Rosins with flirting, whereat
Rosina began to bey so bard, that the
whole steerage took up the quarrel and
.4irashed the lnyer without mercy.
'Adam was so badly beaten that many
feared for life; which dome of
sine's admirers propoied to end by
throwing him to the sharks. Never
was so much excitement over a. rove
affair known at sea, and it is probable
hat if Neptune had joined Cupid in
mischief-mpling the result would have
been noliung short of a terrible ship
wreck. As it was, the Sailer has
brought to America a load of black
eyes and broken hearts.—Phila. Times,

Congress. so modified the law toward

An instance of' this trait was found in

When %he condemned man's father

read:
"Mr. President—l implore you not
