The bravest love tlte best. The titled coxcomb's jewellod hand May lead thee through the dance. i The polished courtier's whisper blond And evening may entrance. But he. who on thy ringlets fair Should place the bridal wreath, la he who would not fear to druw His good sword from ite sheath. Not he who boosts his valiant deeds All others do eclipso, We only hear the brave man's praise Upon another's lips. Then ere within thy gentle heart Love smiles himself to rest. Remember that my words are true, The bravest love the best p; Soliloquy of a Loafer. Let's see, where I am? This is? coal I'm laying on. IIowM I get here? (reflects.) Yes, I mind *now. Was corain up street?met a wheelbarrow ?was drunk, comin' 'tothcr way the wheel-barrow fell over me or I over the wheel-barrow, and one of us fell into the cellar, don't mind which now? gue3S it must a been mo.

Is it the wheel-barrow's fault? No. It's Whiskey's fault. Who is Whiskey ? Has he a large family? Got many relations? All poorl reckon. I think I won't own him any more. I'll cut his acquaintance; I've had that notion for about ten years and always hated to do it for fear of hurting his feelings?I'll do it now?I think liquor's injurin me; it's spoiling my temper. Sometimes I get mad when I'jn drunk and abuse Betz and the brats : it used to be Lizzie and the ehildrou : that's sometime ago lean just mind it; when I came home evening she, used to put; her arms around my neck and kiss mo 1 and call me her dear William. When j I conies home now she takes her pipe ] out of her mouth and puts her hair out ; of her eyes, and says something like , Bill, you drunken brute, shut the door after you, we're cold enough bavin' no fire thout letting the snow blow in that way. 1 cs, she's Iletz and I ain't a good bill, nuthor; think I'm counter-J feit?won't pass?a tavern without go-j in' in and getting a drink. Don't know what bank I'm on. Last Sunday I was 1 on the river bank drunk. I stay out pretty late; no, sometimes I I'm out all night; fact is, I'm out pretty 1 much all over?out of friend, out of1 pocket, out at the elbows ami knees and always outrageously dirty, says Betz, but then she's no judge for she f is never clean herself. I wonder why she does'nt wear good clothes : may be : 6he hasn't got 'cm. Whose fault's that?' taint mine?it must be whiskey's. Sometimes I'm in, however. I'm in-1 toxicated now and in somebody's coal 1 cellar. There's one good principle I've fot?I won't get in debt, I never could ' o it. There, one of 1113* coat tails is 1 gone, got tore off, I expect when I fell! down here?I'll have to get a new suit j soon. A fellow told me the other day J I'd make a good sign for a paper mill. If ho wasn't so l>ig, I'd a licked hiin.? I've had this shirt 011 for nine days, and I'm afraid it won't conic off without tearin.' People ought to respect ino more'n than they do for I'm in holy or- i ders?I ain't a dandy, though 1113* clothes' is pretty near grcsian style.

As the boys says, I'm j fat as a match, and as healthy as the smallpox. My best hat is standing guard for a window pane that went out | tne other morning at the invitation of a brick bat. It's gettin'cold down here;! wonder how I'll get out; I ain't able'; to climb. If Iliad a drink. I could! think better.

I.v a recent lecture before the Mer; cantilc Library Association, of Boston, Josiah Quincv, .Jr., speaking _of the practice of electing cheap judges, quoted from Governor Ford's history of {Illinois, and gave an amusing account j of the action of one of those judges in the case of a man who was convicted jot murder. The criminal was named i Green, and when the judge came t?? , pronounce the sentence he said? j "Mr. Green, the jury in their vcri diet say you are guilty of murder, and the law says you are to he hung. Xow, 11 want vou and all voin* tVh.mlu .>? Indian Crook to know that it was not j f that iiui]? VOII. but the jury ami the law. Mr. Groon, ii?; law allows you time for preparation, nnd the Couvt wants to know at. what time you will be ready to bo hung." "I am ready at any time," said Mr. Green. The judge said? | "You must know. Mr. Geen, it is a verv serious matter to be hung: it i r> i cannot happen to a man more than once in his life-time. The Court will give you four weeks. Mr. ('lei k, look and see if that will come on Sunday." After the judge had been informed that four weeks from that day would conic on Thursday, his decision was about to be recorded, when the Attorney General interposed and said? "May it please the Court, in such cases it is usual to prepare the criminal for his execution by some appropriate I remarks, tending to impress upon him the greatness of liis crime, and the lie-; eessity for sonic preparation for a fu-| tare, world. "Well," said the judge, "lie know as i well as if I should preach to him four weeks. You understand it so, don't j you, Mr. Green ?" "Yes." said Mr. Green, and so the! matter ended. - ? ?
