Thus spoke a kind relief:
'?The King ot France has castles twain;

??There's Montolhery, lar inland,

While La Kocbelle, upon the coast,
Doth sieges oft endure.

Shall Montclhery's chief be placed,

"That king will lote the most

been somewhat elaborately described in

there arc some things that d> mit read

a large boarding house, where tlio luud

makes the diffusion of intelligence among

with an armful of postal bards. The
landlady relieves him of the burden,

them over for the various boarders.
Presently she strikes oue which reads
thus:

A company has been organized in this

Recognition of Merit in the South.
?a.
There was no part of tho country in
which talent and virtue, no matter how
humble its origin, or from what locality
.of the Uni?n, had speedier recognition '
than iu the Suuthcru States. The illus
trations of this truth are almost number
let's. The great George MeDuMie, of
South Carolina was of nuniblo parentage.
The father of President Andrew Jackson,
a dative of North Carolina, was a poor
mat}, and his mother belonged to a hard
wmking family of linju weavers. The
lather of John C. Calhoun lell his
family in moderate circumstance", and
after his death his son resided with his
widowed mother, laboring ou the farm.
Andrew Johnson ol Tenucssec, was
originally a tailor. These are only a
few out ol many, instances of the prompt
and practical recognition of labor in the
South, without regard to origin. The
same is true, whatever may have been the
loeulity from which talent came. John
M. Berrieu, the distinguished represen
tative in former days of 'Georgia iu the
United States Senate, was a native of
New Jersey. Johnson; of Virginia, a
of New York, was elected Governor
of Virginia over George \Y. Summers a
native Virginian. The father of the late
Dr Josiah Clark Nott, principal author
of tho famous ' Typos of Mankind," by
Nott .4tid Gliddon, was a nitiw of Hast
ern Connecticut, but moved to Camden,
South Carolina, where he practiced la*
with s?cei is, was elected to Congross,
and ended his days as a Judge of the
State Court of Appeals. The most
brilliant and popular orator iu the
Southern States, Sargent S. Picntiss, of
Mississippi, was a native of Maine, and

How the Boy Arises.
Calling a boy up in the morning can
hardly b^ classed under tho head of
"pastimes," especially if the boy is loud
of excrciso tho day before. And it is a
little singular that the next hardest
thing to getting ti boy out of bed is
getting him into it. There is rarely a
? mother v. ho is a success at rousing a
I boy. All mothers knows this; so do
their boys. And yet the mother scouts
logo at it in the right way. She opens
the stair Ja >r and iusiuu itingly observes:
"Johnny!" There is no response"?
?Jim.my '." Still no response. Then
there is a short sharp "John !"
followed a moment later by a pro
longed and emphatic "John Henry l"
A grunt from the tipper region
signifies that an impression has been
made, and the mother is encouraged to
add, "You'd better be getting dowu here
to your breakl'.tat, young man, bjfore 1
come up tbcro, an* give something you'll
feel." This so .startles the young man
that he immediately goes to sleep again.
And the operatiou has to be repeated
several times.
A father knows nothing about this
trouble. He merely opens his mouth
as a soda bottle ejects its cork, and the
"John Henry!" that cleaves the air of
that stairway goes into the boy like elec
tricity, and pierces the deopest recesses
of his very nature. And ho pop9 out of
the bed into his cloths, down tho stairs,
with a promptness that is commendable.
It is rarely n boy allows himself to dis
regard the parental summons. About

is consistent with tho rules of hoa th.

A Valuable Invention for Ladies.
I1Y MAX.AUEI.KK.
It was Mover a turn fur inveution
that caused the disaster. Moyor design
ed a new kind of "pateut, iuflatcd
gossamer bustle" for ladies. It was a
thin bag of Indii rubber which was to
be inflated with gas to give it the proper
detention and sufficient lightness. When
the model was completed, Mrs. Mover
determined to try it. She went into
the yard and tied the maching under
her dress, while Moyer turned on the
kitchen gas to fill tho bag. It worked
well enough for a few moments, when
all at once Mrs. Moyer began to ascend
with frightful rapidity. She had barely
time to scream dowu to Moyer to put
the children to bed early, and to tell
Mary Jane to set bread, aud the next
instant she was two miles above the
Bnow line. It was embarrassing for
Mrs. Moyer?very embarrassing, as J
.he could not roach round to the bustle
to turu off - the gas iu order to come
j down. So Bite" floated about up there
among thunderbtcrms and clouds aud
crows and aurora borealises for several
hours enjoying tho scenery am! studying
the air currents, and wishing sh i had
brought her muff and a bo.?k to read.
Then she commenced to doscend gradu
ally uuttl she came within a couple ol
hundred fed of tho earth. She thcu
screamed some as she floated along, and
several enthusiastic students of natural
history tried to biiug her down with
shot-guns, under the impression she was
some new variety of ostrich or flamingo.
But a sudden gust of wind struck Mrs.
Moyer, and blew her against the Pres
! byteriun church with such force that
ihe "inflated gossamer bustle" exploded
violently, impressing the sextou with
the conviction that the sacred edifice
had beim strnok by lightning. l>ut wheji

A writer iu Chamber's Jourual, on
?Short Speeches and Coun Correspon
deuce," gives a budget of anecdotes some
of which are fresh, aud others, well?
otherwise. Here are the best of them :
' An American judge once intervened
iu an odd way to prevent a waste of
words, lie was sitting in chambers and
seeing, from the piles of papers iu the
lawyers' hands, that the lirsl case was
likely to be hurdly contested, ho asked,
?What is the niiioiliit iu questiou V "Two
dollars,' said the plaintiff's counsel. 'I'll
pay it,' said the judge, handing over the
monoy ; 'call tho uoxt oase.' He had
not the patience of taciturn Sir William
Gruut, who, alter listening for a couple
of days to the arguuicuts of couusel as to
the construction of an A?t, quietly
abserved, when they had done, "The
act is repealed " One morning a woman
wu.s shown into Dr. Abernethy's room;
before he could speak, she bared her
arm, saying ''Burn," "A poultice," said
tho doctor. Noxt day she appeared,
showed her arm and said, "Better."
"Continuo the poultice." Some days
elapsed before Abcrncthy saw her again;
then she said, "Well, your fee V* "Noth
ing," quoth the great medico ; "you are
tho most sensible woman I over saw 1"
Lord Aberdeen, tho Premier of the
Coaliiion Ministry, was remarkable for
tho little tuso he made of his tonguo.
When, by way of reconciling him to
accompanying her on a soa trip, tho
tJut on smilingly observed : "I believe,
my lord, you are not often seasick f"
'Always, madam," was tho brief but
significant reply. ''But," said she, "uot
very seasick?" "Very, madam," said
the uncompromising minister. An in
quisitive French bishop once caught a
Tartar in tho Duke de Knquelaire. The
latter passing in hasto through Lyons,
was hailed by tho bishop with "Hi!
hi !" The duke stopped. "Whero
have you conio from ?" inquired the
prelate. "Paris," said the duke. "What
