This state of things was often a nuisance ; but the old ser vant, however troublesome and in efficient, was so thoroughly rooted in the households of past days that there was scarce a possibility of getting rid of him. A Mr. Erskine, of Dun, had long groaned under the impertinence of one of those re tainers, and had almost determined to bear it no longer, when walking out with his man, upon crossing a field the mastor exclaimed, "Thero's a hare." Looking at the place, Andrew said, coolly, "What a big lee, it's a caut." Quito angry now, Mr. Erskine plainly told the old domestic that they must part. But the tried servant of forty years, un.. ablo to conceive the possibility of his dismissal, innocently, asked "Aye, sir, whare are ye gaun ? I'm sure ye are aye best at haie." This auec doto is paralleled by the instance of a coachman, long in the service of a noble lady, who fairly gave him notice to quit, and bade him go at once. The only satisfac tion she got was the quiet an swer, "Na, na, my lady ; I druve ye to your marriage, and I shall stay to drive you to your bu rial." The cool assurance with which these old domestics look upon themselves to protect family inter ests sometimes led to ludicrous ex hibitions. While a Mrs. Murray of Abercairney was dining at a friend's house, one of the family noticed that she was looking for the propor spoon to help hersolf with salt. The old servant, Thomas, was mo. tioned to, but he would not notice the appeal. It was repeated in a more peremptory manner: "Thom as, Mrs. Murray has not a salt spoon," to which he replied most < m phatically, "Last timo Mrs. Murray dined here we lost a salt spoon." One more story, to exhibit the ready wit observed among Scotch servants. A baby was out with the nurse, who walked it up and down a garden. ".Is it a laddie or a lassie 9" said the gardner. "A laddie," said the maid. "Weel." says he, "I,m glad o' that, for there's owor mony wvomen in the world." "Hee, man," said Jes, 1"div ye no ken there's aye mais sawn o' the best crap ?" CONvIVIAL IJABITs. Some of the most curious of Dean Ramsay's recollections relate to the convivial habits which obtained in Scottish society fifty years back. In those days, no one was allowed to shirk his liquor, no heel-taps were permitted, and glasses had the stems knocked off so that no shuffling tricks might be played with them, and that they could only be put down empty. A Tird of the ~ old school expressed himself with indignation at 'the charge brought against hard drihking, that it it hias actually killed people. "Na, na," lie protestod, "I never knew anybody ~killed wi' drinkid4, but I hae ken some that died in the training." We are assured by the author that an accompished and worthy gentle woman actually took pains to culti-. A vats habits of drinking in her sons, holding that all young men should be trained to carry liquor discreetly. Accordingly, she dadly put before the young laird a certain quan~ tity of wine, which he was obliged to swallow, whether he would or no. This calls to mind the similar prac - tice half a century ago in Ireland, by which fathers used to tell their sons 4 "to make their head while they were young."

There is a curious story about some native wines wvhich are extensively advcrtised nowa days, and have only recently been put upon the market. Dr. Unmderhill, the well-knmown gape-grower of Croton Point, died in 187r. ..ome oflhis heirs entertained temfperance views of such extreme kind, that they were unwilling to allow the stock of wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be madc. The grapes have sometimes becen sent to market, and sometimes left to decay upon the vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded in arrngping for a settiement of the estate nnd the sale of the wines on hand. Ameng these is a wine of thc vintage of 1864, describe d as a " Sweet Union P'ort," but suggesti'ng the Imperial Tokay more than any other Europecan wine, and being wholly unlike any other wine of Amnerican growth. Its purity, age and mellowness are remarkable, and both physicians and wine fanciers have a specil Interest in it as the oldest native wine now accessible in any con siderable quantity. The whole stock is in the hands of' the well-known wholesale grocery house of the Trhurbers.-N. Y. Tr~Iu,s Nov. 19t, &27. The above speaks for itself, but we would add That this is the pure juice of the grape, neither drtagTed, iguored nor waternf; that it has been ripened and mellowed by age, and for medicinal eor sacramental purposes It is unsurpassed. It can be obtained from most of the leadIng Druggists throughout the United States, and at wholesale from the undersigned, who will forward descriptive pamphlet, free of charge, on application.
