A Touching Scene. 1
A corres pendent of the Elmira Re- j
publican 6ays that in a recent trio
over the New York and Erie roacf, ,
j . i : I \
ail incident occurred uiat toucned
every beholder's Jieart with pit}'. A
comparatively young.lady, dressed in
deep mourning?her husband having
recently died?was travelling Southward,
having in her care an<J keeping
ayoung daughter of some six years.?
The litue girl was mild eyed as on autumnal
eky and as delicate as the hyacinth?her
emaciated fingers as delicate
and transparent as the pearls of
Ceylon. Touchingly beautiful was
the affection of her heart for the mother,
whose solicitude tor the daughter's
comfort was unceasingly manifested.?
Looking ever and anon from the car
window she turned to her mother say
wg: "Mother, I am weary?when shall
we get home!" After a*time she fell 1
into a gentle sluinlier, and awaking
sudlently?a radiant smile overspread- j
ing her featners?she exclaimed, point- ,
ing upward,?"Mother there is papa !
home at lostl" and expired. It was
et many a,weary miles to the mother's
home, but the angels pittying the little j
sufferer, gathored her to tho Paradise
of Innooeuce. j
A Capital Rktobt.?A liquor seller 1
in a heated discussion about the Maine ]
Law exclaimed: j
These temperance men carry mat- |
tor* altogether too far. We never i
compel men to buy or use liquor, but ,
if thoy are fools enough to do it, it is |
their lookout and not ours." ,
Sir," said a bystander, "do you say ,
* a man is a fool who buys and drinks liquor
to excess)
Yes, any man is a fool to do it, I
don't care who it is." said the liauor I
* dealer. i
uWell, air," replied the bystander, i,
"I will not dispute you ; but if the man j,
who drinks is fool enongli to spend his
, time and money in a way that is ruining
his property, character, health,
happiness, family, soul and body, what
, must bo the character of tho man who 1
will take advantage of his folly. If
one is a fool the other U a knave."
; What a contrast the two following |
cases present. John M. Shrock, the
defaulting treasurer of Holmes county.

. a man who is accustomed to spenk in
I public, and to havo his thoughts a.
bout him, and ready to command on
almost all occasions.
"I was once opening a speech from
the stump." said a distinguished Western
political orator to us recehtly,
and was just beginuing to warm with
| my subject, when a remarkably clear
and deliberate voice spoke out behind
me, saying 1"
"Guess he wouldn't talk gutte so
highfalntin, if he knew that his trows,
ers was bn'st clean out behind I"
"From that moment I couldn't 'got
on.' The people in front began to
laugh, and there was a loud roar in
1 my rear, and I dared not reverse my
position for fear of having a new audience
of my condition. I made, or
rather invented, an excuse for delay,
and sat down. The malicious scoundrel
!" continued the orator: "it was
1 only a mean trick after all. There was
| nothing under heaven the matter with
| j my unmentionables!"
Spasms and Brandy.?The following
anecdote is told of? verv clever ;
fellow, who had recently joined the
! Sons of Temperance.
Alter becoming a 'Son/ he went to
Mobile on business, and was taken ill
, there. Physicians woro culled, and
* on examining him pronounced him to
i a very dangeroxis condition, and perscribcd
brandy. Tho sick man told
him that ho could not take it. Tho
' doctor hisistod that it was a pro nor
remedy, but tho patient told him tlint j
he would not take it.
Well, said tlm doctor, if 3-cu will not!
tako it, tho brandy, you will surely !
have spusms.
Guess, then, suid tho Son of Temper-1
unce, I will try a couple of spasms !
