A stsge coach is a great big jolt, jumble and a shake on wheels. They have also considerable mud out there when the elouds perspire. They relate a story of a man who was going along and obser ved a hat lying in the road. Having with iufluito difficulty fished it out with a pole, what was his disgust and astonish ment to discover that there was an owner under it. "Shan't I help yon out, my frieud?" inquired he philaiithiropically. "O ! Never iniud me," said the man, "I have a good mule under iuo yet."

The time was when a yorrfrg lady would consider herself totally unlit to appear ut church ou Easter Sunday morning unless at tired iu her new outfit for Spring. This, however, is all changed now, for the past few years the Spring season has been so cold that it would be considered qoiie unfit to dou the lighter costume till later iu the season, When the sun is warmer and no danger is iucurred by the change ol clothing.

FEATHERS are not used as much as they were last spring, still, a richer garniture cannot be employed than fine lace and solt feathers on pure white chip or fine split straw. DOTTED LACE are used if poeaible more than over, and s bonnet or hat without the usual lace vail in the back is unseemly, not to say ungraceful.

The Mulo Gun, Some people bnvc conceived tho idea that the stuull 'Gutling guns, made at Colt's, were intended to be fired from > he back of a mule, because they are only made light for transportation. The statement that they could be used from the bick of a mule or horse, which is going the rounds of the papers, calls up the following anecdote, which we heard sonic time since: - Out in a certain western fort some time ugo, tho major conceived the idea that artillery might be used effectively in fighting the Iudians, by dispensing with gun carriages, aud fastening the cannon Upon the backs of mules, so he explained his views to the wOu<mandant, und it was deter aiitied to try tho expe riment. A suiill howitzer was strapped upon an nmbuluucc mule, with the- muz zle pointing Awards the tail. When they bad secured the gun, and loaded it with bull cartridge, they led that calm nod steadfast mule out to the bluff aud set up a target in the middle of the river to practice at. The rear of the mule was turue I towards the target, and he was liaeked up to the idgc of the bluff. The pffLerfl stood aroutu. in a 3emi-circlc, the Major went up aud inserted a time fuse in the touch-hole of the howitzer, j When the lusc was ready the Major lit I it and retired. In a minute or two the \ hitherto U'nufU'd mule heard fizzing j back there on his neck aud it made him ( uneasy. lie reached his head around to ascertain what was goiug on, and, ?s he did so. his body turned, and the how itzer began to sweep around the horizon. The mule at Ian became excited, as his curiosity became more and m.>rc intenst, and in a second or two ho was standing with his four legs in ? bunch, making six revolutions a minute, and the how itxer, understand, threat cuing suddeu death to every man within half a mile! The commandant was observed to cliuid suddenly up a tree; the lieutenants were seen sliding over the bluff into the river, us if they didn't cure at all about the high price of uniforms; the adjutant made good time towurd the fort; the Burgeant begun to throw up breastworks with his bayonet, and the major rolled over on the ground und groaned.

U J The legend, as it U called* ."fi>r'vt^lJ Master Mason, is one of the moat touch ing and beautiful in the gacat dream of Ufa. Founded, as it is, upon the mys teries and ceremonies of the ancient Egyptians, it has come down to us as the embodiment and. subsuttieo of Ma sonry. It is ab impressive elemplifica tion of the birth, the duties, the death and resurrection of man. It stamps upon the intelligent Mason tho sublime doctrine of the immortality of tho soul, and it was a wise provision of all Grand Lodges that degree should never be mutilated, that it should never bo given in part only, but should be completed at every undertaking. To omit this legend is to omit tho degree itself. The legend is the grand land-mark, tho unfailing beucon of Maaonin centuries. It is never changed; it will admit of op re-< moval, for it-is a rallying poui', of the uuiversal brotherhood. It coi voys vo lumes ot ^bought; and furnishes fooa for the reflective mind, down to the grave, sod as ~i~~a? ^??^?,1^ beside any of the produetl >n9 of gonius. No Mason ever participated in and for got it; he felt its moral up >n hia soul as though it were the touch *of divinity, and when properly understood,it inspires a solemnity second only to the scenes of death. Let no inventivo and. tinkering genius, therefore, over tamper aith the beautiful legend; it wants nothing added to it. aud will allow nothing takcu from "Dolly V ABffBN."?Dolly Varden, the frmouffte young lady after whom the fashionable dress for next summer is named, was the charming daughter of a London locksmith. Gabriel Varden by name, and lived in tho reign of George ITT. She afterwards bees mo Mrs. Joe Willet. For f?rther information, we would respectfully refer certain inquirers to a certain beek called . "Burnaby Rudge," written by one Charles Dickens, an author of some local reputation. Whether the lady in question was given to wearing materials of a startling* load color and pattern, this deponent has no knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief. About a year ago, how ever, some inspired modiste rechristencd what was then kuorn "cretennes," and called them ' Dolly Var Jens." The name was first confined to chintzes, but it spread to other materials. At a late dry goods exposition, "Dolly VarJcn" silks were exhibited, nnd now whole costumes whose like vote uevcr seen on sea tr shore, are named after the eh inn ing and coquettish little daughter of a London locksmith. Good Sjons for thr South.?The Southern papers are filled with adver tisements of land fertilizers, and the merchants appear to be cofapetinggreat ly for the rale of them. Tho demand, it seems, it? something quite extraordinary in the South, and is an encouraging sign for tho beginning of the planting season. It is cvideuco that if the lands uro worn their owners aro not disposed to leave them in that condition. Proprietors of small cotton milU in tho North aro beginniug to discover that there is some truth in the idea of concentrating their resources', aud thoro are indication* that during tho present sprirfg a nftgaf cumber of that class of msmrtffacturerS are preparing to carry their machinery into factories in the old cotton districts. Thoy will save freight ou the raw material, they will get fresher and cheaper labor, and they will find unrivalled natural a-_,oncius. With improved and reinvigorated fields, and with a home market for eetton aud labor, the South can get along very well, without much polities. . "Good morning, Mr Smith; tJPysike sick-list today?"
