Mr. Lothario's Apology.
Your coming in last night, my love,
Waa something sudden. ? was helping
Nell
To tie the ribbons of her rigoletto:
She put the crimson of her mouth np
well,
I'm flesh and blood, and (hen von, singing,
Came d
Into the room, and tossed your head for
(shanie.
I saw a ?ort of maiden Northern lights
Shoot up your ciietiKs and tremble in your
eyes.
I like such tilings. I like to see the wind
Drive frightened clouds across tempestu?
ous skies:
I like the sea, and. when it's easily had,
A very pretty woman, very mad!
I liked the dangerous and regal air
(Von bear a queen's aatne, and a queen
you aro.)
With which von donned your thibct opera
cloak,'
And clasped it with a diamondlikea Mar:
'Twas channing in HIV mistress. Bal, nr. '
lifo,
It would not be so charming 1.1 my wife. j
I like wild thing:;, as I have said, but then ]
I should not like to own them. Who
would he I
Proprietor of earthquakes or loose harri- ?
canes,
Or comets plunging in cl ?i lal sea?
Qr wed a muid that could, :? che ahouid
please.
Oivo him r. touch ol' ono and all of ?.'...:.:.. '
Noffc Don't let a female Ihcmler ste-.*i
Brood in your oyos. With O? orv mo. ? io
then "
A flash of angry lightning. You have had
Your March ? ad April, nov. he June again;
And lot your tine-cut eyebrows' silken ..;;;>::.
Be bows of promise to yourfavorite man!
i've had my laugh, anti yon your 'pom. and
now
(You'll spoil that rose-hud if you twist it
so)
Give mo both hands, thai 1 mav ??iv Good
Bess,
The good Queen Boss, and kis3 yon, ero I
Thc good Queen Bess, whos?- heart and
mind and face
Teach ino to love all wonn n cs a race!
So when I kissed your pretty consin Noll,
I honored one who laugh* mc to admire
Fair women in ihoir twenties don't yo::
seo?
But then, dear Boss, as I was standing in
her,
Her lip.*; quite 'dose now this is entre nans,
Upon my soul, I made believe 't was you!

A GAY ACTIIKSS.- The Paris corres?
pondent of thc Montreal Qaz-'lle says:
"If you would judge of tlie extra?
vagance of Paiis. visit the theatres
and see how the negresses aro dressed.
Each tries Lo outshine thc other in
the beauty of her diamond--. ?.iecs,
sirks, etc. I heard of ti good joice on
Mlle. Scheider, who plays La Helle
Helene at the: Varieties. Sh?- ?aid or?
dered one of those immense crin olin?
skirts still in vogue, and which ar?'
still to be seen, especially in the ave?
nue des Champs Elysees, ?overing the
whole front and seats of the carriage
in which sucli thong -unattended.
No carriage of cotemporary make
could hold two women so attired.
The crinoline was sent home. She
was absent at rehearsal at the time it
came. When she rode out that even?
ing she wore it, and immediately on
her return home sent it to the trades?
man, saying, '111 not wear such a
horrid thing. It was so small 1 got
into my carriage with it without the
least difficulty.' That will show you
the tendency of life here; we aro all
straining aiu-r thc impossible. While
this actress' name is in my pen, ] will
tell you another anecdote of lier. If
will show you how stupid and heart?
less actresses of her class arc- and
remember these are the women who
exert supreme influence in France.
One evening she went on from her
house to the theatre, leaning on the
arm of the Duke de - - . On the
way, she not iced in a shop window an
English trinket. Nothing must do
but she must have it, let the cost be
what it might. They entered the
shop. The trinket had been sold,
and no more like it remained on
hand, besides thc shopkeeper expected
no new supply for a week or ten days.
She -.vas vexed, fell into iil-hunior,
and turned the Dake oil* the moment
they reached the then! re door. l)o
said nothing, ordered a carriage, and
told the driver to take him io the
Northern Railroad station. He took
the train for Calais, and reached Lon?
don the next morning-. Mc went to
buy the desired trinke?, and took the
return train to Paris as soon as he
was in possession of it. He reached
Paris the same night, and went in tri?
umph to Mlle. Scheider's room.
When he told her the trouble he was
at to gratify her least whim, she hurst
into a laugh and said, 'vais fu, mon
jpeiit. 1 never can love you-you are
too stupid!' Such is their heart."
To cure diptheria, take a common
tobacco pipe, place a live coal in the
bowl, drop a little tar nj ?on the coal,
draw the smoke into the mouth and
discharge it through the nostrils.
Love in a cottage is all very well

EilistOE, che Comedian, and JSing
George III.
Raymond's Life of Elliston, the
Comedian, is one of those books,
the perusal or which is sure to givo.
the reader what Oliver Wendell
Holmes has odily, but expressively
called a "champagny feeling." t It is
written with delightful ease, -grace i
and wit, and while professing to be j
thc biography of one man, gives us a ?
graphic picture of society, especially j
of the berni monde and the prominent
theatrical celebrities of the first quar?
ter of the present century.
Elliston himself is represented as
un actor of remarkable powers. Ile
did not fall far short of beiug, in tho
histrionic sense, a universal genius.
No performer of his day equalled lum
as a comedian. "His countenance,"
says Mr. Raymond, "WUK the vcr;.'
mirrer of comedy. His face was
round, ids features small, yet highly
expressive, laughter lay cradled in his
e ye, and there was a noticeable play of
lips so pregnant of meaning, ns fre
qnsntly to leave the words that fol
I lowed but little to explain.*'
AIR! yet Elliston rivalled, and in the
opinion of many, surpassed oven
I IC'unble in certain scones of Hamlet,
i ile. . ia very amusing anecdote,
? ono of thc many with which his bio
! granhy is tilled:
J "Elliston had in" n acting at Wey
j mouth, a place to which the Kin?? wns
extremely partial, aud whore .': ".vas nc
unusual thing for him t.> ink?-) his
stroll unattended. On the morning
; of E!liston's benefit, he had been en
\ joying one of these afternoon wander
1 ings, when rain coming <>n just as Ju
I was passing l],i> theatre dom-, in le
i went, and, finding no one imuiodiatoh
lat hand, ]>roceeded to thc royal bo:
and scated innis' if in Ins own chair.
I "The dim daylight of the theatre
! and slight fatigue which exercise ha?
I occasioned, induced an inclination t<
I drowsiness. His majesty, in fact, f< 1
I into a comfortable dose, which prc
j sentry became a sound sleep. In tb
; meantime, Lord Townsend, who lae
I encountered Elliston in the neighboi
I bond, inquired whether he had seei
j the King, as his maj. sty had not bee:
! in the palace since Iiis :? o'clock din
j ncr; and it bein"; then nearly 5, th
Queen and princesses were in som
i anxiety about him.
I "But his lordship gaining no dire?
; ti on from the dramatic st.er, pursue
: hin object in another ..nurse.
I "Elliston now makin;* his way i
; the theatre for iii" purpose o'." sup
iutending all things necessary for ti
j reception of his miguel patrons, we:
I straight into the King's box, ami <
: perceiving a mm fast asleep in h
I majesty's chair, was about recailir
. him to his senses in n >gi*ntlo manne
i when, very fortunately, ho recognize
t the King himself.
I "Wien was to be done? Eil ist?
I could not presume to wake his maje
ty- to approach him speak to him
j touch hi:u -impossible! und yet som
I thin::: was necessary lo he attempie
j as it was nov time the tin aire sim;:
be Mt.
I "Elliston hit on tho following
j dient: taking np a violin from the <
' chestra. Ju? stepp?'*?] ' ito the pit, ai
I placing himself just beneath bis ?
ailed guest, struck :;('.. dokir.ien
i '(lo 1 save, the King!' Tile exp?die
, had the desired effect, the roy.!] sh t
? er was gently loosened from the sp
j which had bound him. ?'?nd awakir
; np he sprung, and staring the ge]
! fleeting comedian full in the fa?
I exclaimed: 'Hey! hey! hov! \vh
i what! ( >h, yes!' I see! Elliston 1
ha! rain came on took a seat tool
I nap what's o'clock!' "
"Approaching six, your majesty,
j "Six! six o'clock!"' interrupted i
King, "send to her majesty, say 1
herc stay ibis wig won't do, eh, <
Don't keep the pi opie waiting li;
up -Iel "em in -let 'em in, ha!
fast asleep; piny well to-night, El
ton--great favorite willi the (.?ueet
i let 'em in-let "em in !"
I The house was presently illu:
1 nated-messengers -were sent off
I the royal party, which in n short ti
j reached the theatre. Elliston tl
: quitted the side of In's most af?n
i monarch, and dressed himself in
i minutes for his part in the dr.t
? went through Iiis business with bon
ling spirit, nor was his gier- at all
minished when, on attending
royal visitors to their carnage,
j king once more nodded his head, i
'[ it'g:
"Fast asleep, eh! Elliston!
asleep!"
An original and pleasant wit was
Majesty George III.
It is said that Elder Brigham Yo
intimated to Spaaker Colfax, i
recent interview at Salt Lake (
that he expected a revelation from
Lord that "polygamy should
stopped," and said he was prep
