THE BROTHERS
One fine spring day in 1831, I was walk
ing accompanied by a physician, in the gar
dens belonging to the celebrated Lunatic Asy
lum near Paris, conducted by Dr. 8.-. At
the turn of an alley I suddenly found myself
oloso to an old man, on whose arm loaned a
youth, apparently about twenty years of ago.
The countenance of the first wore an ex
pression of profound sadness, while the young
man's. eye gleamed with the wild strange fire
of madness.
The aged man saluted me with silent cour•
tesy, but the younger ran to me, seized my
hand, and exclaimed, " A glorious day, mon
sieur; the scaffold is ready on the Plaza
Bemposta I Do you see the crowds assem
sombled I And look I chained on yonder
cart, that woman with the pale and savage
face ;- that is Queen Carlotta, the wife of Juan
VI., the mother of Don Miguel. 'Tie now
thy turn to die, tigress! thy turn to hovi
beneath the ax, anti redden the scaffold with
thy blood! But adieu," he added, address
ing me, "they aro waiting for me—they call
me! lam the queen's ,execulioner l"
I turned toward the old man, but ho only
shook his head and sighed ; then I questioned
the physician who acoompanied me.
"That young man," he said, is one of the
mostinteresting oases wo have; his history
is a strange ono."
My curiosity♦-cos now excited, and I begged
of my companion to sati s fy
" Roy 1, wit hout indisorei ion, lislen niso?"
asked a tall man, wtt!tll and unit gloomy
coqnteuttitt, wig nttw tti•pronched Its., and
who, as I learned tatt•rwarl, was hntlur
oaro fur a serious iitfo.limt bl the
head.
" You may, certainly," replied roy.friend,
bowing, and then began: "' , ln the year 1823,

"I have every reason to believe it."
We walked toward the house, and again
saw .facinto; he was seated on . a grass pint,
leaning forward. with his fare hurled in his
hands. Ins father was near him, grave, si

stronger followed us, and. as he came near,
the eyes of Jacinto were raised, and fixed on
him with a wild bright look. Stu' lenly the
youth started tip, and shriked, "the, Duke

ground.
At the unwonted sound the old man thought
That Intellect and memory Ipul returned to

he exclaimed, " .`-thank flod is saved !"

A fpw moment , : of awful silence followed ;
all eyes were fixed on ,iseinto, wlmso mouth

a hopeless idiot.
The Duke d'Arenas looked at the marquis
with an earnest supplicating expression ; and
then, falling en his knees before him, ex
claimed, " Pardon me, I have suffered!"
"1 curse thee! Duke d'Arenas."
" Behold me at thy feel, Marquis do an

A distinguished physician of Paris declared,
just before his death. "I believe, that during
the twenty-six years I have practised my pro
fession in this city, twenty' thousand children
have been borne to the cemeteries, sacrifices
to the absurd custom of naked arms." When
in Harvard many years ago, I heard the dis
tinguisho Dr. J. C. Warren say, " Boston
sacrifices five hundred babies every year, by
not clothing their arms." Those little arms
should have thick. knit, woolen,.warm sleeves
extending from the shoulder to the hand.—

THU RULING PASSION.—On One of the north
ern railroads, there is a conductor •maned S
—, a very clever, sociable, gentlemanly
man, a great favorite with the company be is
connected with, and the travelling public in
general—fond of a joke, quick at repartee,
and faithful in the discharge of his.duties.—
During the past year, as his train, well tilled
with passengers, waa crossing a bridge over
a wide stream some seven or eight feet deep,
the bridge broke down, precipitating the two
patisenger carriages into the stream. As the
passengers emerged from the wreck, they
were,liorne away by the force of the current.
Our eriend S— bad succeeded in catching
hold of some bushes that grow near the stream,
to which ho hold for dear life. A passenger,
less fortunate, came rushing by. 8— ex
tended one hand, saying; r
" Your ticket, sir; give me your ticket."
You can imagine the effect of such a dry
joke, in the midst of the water.
Ttae AND CURE.—A good•looking fellow
was charged with having stolen a watch. It
was his first offence, and ho was ready to
plead guity. The magistrate asked him what
had induced hint to commit the theft. The
The young man replied that, "having been
ill for somo limo, the doctor advised him to
take something. which he accordingly did."
Tho-mngistrato was rather pleased with the
humor of the thing. and asked what had led
him to select a watch.
" Why," said the prisoner, " 1 thought if
I only had the time, that, Nature would work
a cure."

Horses are generally covered with red hair,
though some, are white, others are gray and
black. Nobody over saw a blue horse; which
is considered very strange by emillent natmr
ali,os.
The horse is a quiet and intelligent animal ;
an 1 can sleep standing np, which. is a very
convenient, gift, especially where there is it
crowd, and it is dillieult to get a chance to
lay. There is a great variety of horses—fast
horses and slow horses, clothes horses, horse
mackerel, saw horses, horse tiles, horse chest
nut, and horse radio-h. The clothes horse.
is a very quiet animal to have around
the house, and is never known to kick, though
very apt to make a row when it gets capsized.

Let parents, then, talk mull and talk
well at home. A father who is habitually
silent in his own house, may be, in many
respeets, a wise man, but he is not wise

plane fir young people—a place from
which they will escape if they can. They
will talk or think of being 'shut up' there;
and the.youth who does not love home is
in danger. Make home, then, a cheerful
