Well upon the whole, you can't have him,— yes yes, yes yes.” The young man left sorrowing. | So there's been a rupture of Mount Vo-! ciferous!” said Mrs. Partington, as she | read in the Journal an account of the| eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and she put) down the paper and put up her specs. | The paper tells all about the burning lather ranning down the mountain, but it don’t tell us how it got afire. I won- der if it was set fireto. ‘There are many people full wicked enough to do it, or perhaps it was caused by children play- ing with frictious matches. 1 wish they had sent for our firemen—they would soon have put a stop to the ragin’ ail- ment; and I dare*say Mr. B——and all of 'em would have gone, for they are what I cull real civil engineers.” There was a whole broadside of com- mendation of the fire company in the impressive gesture accompanying — her! words. ‘ ‘Time aad space’ for a moment | became annihilated, and imagination! figured the city engine pouring its sub-| duing stream upon the flames of Vesuvi- | us, and ‘* Hold on seving !”’ ‘ Break! her down twelve !” rising above the vain’ roarings of the smothering crater. | “*Thaven't got any money,” said Mrs. | Partington, as the box came round at the! close of a charity lecture; ‘* but here's u couple of elegant sausages I have brought that you can give the poor ereturs !"" The) box-holder looked confounded—the peo- | ple smiled. With her view of charity, she saw nothing wrong in the act. Bless thee, Mrs. Partington! angels shall re- cord the deed on the credit side of thy account, and where hearts are judged shall thy simple gift weigh like gold in the day of award. ‘*T keep the best bread,’’ said a cer- tain baker the other day to a poor fellow who complained of the inferior quality of the article he had purchased of him the day before. ‘* Ido not doubt it,” replied the customer. ‘Then why do you com- plain?” asked the baker. ‘+ Because I would suggest that you scll the best) and keep the bad,” was the reply. During the recent session of the Nqual Rights Convention, a strong-minded female enteved a crowded streect-railroad car. An old gent rose to give her a seat but asked, ‘*Be you one of those women’s righters?’’ ‘I be.”"—You believe a wom- an should have all the rights of a man?” “Yes, Ido,” Then stand up and enjoy them like a man.” And stand up she had to do. The remains of the bachelor who burst into tears on reading a description of masried life, have been found, and secured by a set of hoops. **See there,” exclaimed a returned Trish soldier to a gaping crowd, as he exhibited with some pride his tall hat with a bullet hole in it. hole, will you? You see that if it had been a low crowned hat, | should have been killed outright. The most recent case of absence of mind is that of an cditor who recently copied from a hostile paper one of his} own articles and headed it, ‘* Wretched attempt at wit.” Ifa girl thinks more of her heels than her head, depend upon it, she will never amount to much. Brains which settle in the shoes never get above them.— Young gentlemen will please put this down. A chap out West, who had been severe- ly afflicted with the palpitation of the heart, says he found instant relief by the applicution of another palpitating heart. Another triumph ofhontwopatiy. *‘Like cures like,” An Oxford saddler sold a saddle, but forgot who was the customer, so he told his clerk to charge it in all the bills sent out. He afterwards confessed that thirty two had paid him for it. Tlome! sweet home!” as the bee said when he entered his hive.

What is that which is full of holes and yet holds water ?-—A sponge. Why isa prudent nan like a pin?— Because his head prevents him from going too far. A young stock broker having married a fat old widow with $100,000 says it wasn’t his wife's face that attracted him so much as the flyure. Wiere Siacn | Dine ?"—One even- ing Sheridan, not knowing where to go for a dinner, sat down by Michael Angelo Taylor in the House of Commons, and said, ‘There isa law question li. ely to arise presently, on which, from 5 our legal knowledge, you will be wanted to reply | to Mr. Pitt; so [ hope you will not think of leaving the House.” So saying, Sheri- dan slipped out, walked over to Michael's house, and ordered up dinner, saying to the servant, ** Your master is not coming home this evening.” He made an excel- Jent dinner, came b: ck to the House, and seeing Michael looking: expectant, went to release him, saying, ‘Iam sorry to have kept you, for, alter all, I believe this matter will not come off to-night.” Mi- chael instantly walked home, and learned, to his consternation, when he rang for dinner, ‘‘ Mr. Sheridan had it, sir, about two hours 1go."—Li/e of Wilberforce.

Dwarfs will do a foot or 18 inches apart, while hose requiring brush will need to be 3 r4 feet or more distant. Plant in rows, as far as possible, as this is much more convenient in working than the old fashioned way of dividing up the garden into small beds. Seed-beds will be needed by those who do not use glass for starting their plants, an’ for plants for later ¢rops. The soil should be rich and light, of a nature that will not become compacted or caked. Many failures with seeds are due to the inability of the delicate plant to force its way through the heavy baked soil. Sow here all plants that are to be transplanted, such as cabbages, celery, sweet herbs, ete.
