An omen of terrible import and doubt— His teeth in one moment all fell out.

His wise-men assembled at break of day, And stood by the throne in solemn array.

And when the terrible dream was told, Each felt a shudder, his blood ran cold.

And all stood silent, in fear‘and dread, And wondering what was best to be said.

At length and wrinkled and “rey,

Cried, ‘Pardon, my lord, what I have to say:

old soothsayer,

‘*Tis an omen of sorrow sent from on high: Thou shalt see all thy kindred die.’

Wreth was the Sultan; he gnashed his teeth, And his very words seemed to hiss and seethe, ordered the wise-man bound with chains,

And gave him a hundred stripes for his pains.

Bat one of them, stepping before the throne Exclaimed, in a loud and joyous tone :

‘*Exit, O head of a happy State ! Rejoice, O heir of a glorious fate !

‘‘For this is the favour thou shalt win, O Sultan,—to outlive all thy kin!

Pleased was the Sultan, and called a slave, And a hundred crowns to the wise-man gave,

But the courtiers, they nod, with grave sly winks, And each one whispers what each one thinks.

“Well can the Sultan reward and blame; Didu’t both the wise-men foretell the same ?

A Statesman to be Proud of.

Few public men can claim the distinc- tion of the pure patriotism and a dis interestedness above suspicion that is freely accorded to Franz Deak. Calm, passioniess, clear-sighted and wise as the ancient sages, no one could have been better fitted to lead the councils and moderate the passion of the fiery, impetuous Hungarians.

So great was the authority of his voice and glance that few could resist it. On one oceasion, when robbers at- taked the house, of his brother-in-law, where he was staviog, his calm dignity and persuasive eloquence so wrought upon the rough savages that they spar ed his brother’s life, and even restored his own watch which they had taken from him.

Though he was of noble birth,he pre ferred to be known as a noble citizen. He would never accept the smallest preseaot as a reward for his services. Neither decorations nor estates had the slightest allurement for him. When it was once a question of the bestowal upon him of some gift by the king on the oceasionof the coronation. “His Maj sty will probably survive me, said Deak; “then, when I die, let him say over my grave that Franz Deak was an honest man. That is the reward for which I ask.” And when he did die he bad a whole nation of mourners. J. W. Davis, in the Manhattan for Sep- tember.

A Model Hungarian Gipsy.

Johai tells a story of a gipsy which illustrates the happy freedom from all the ordinary restraints of civilization which characterizes the race. The gipsy was the happy father of a flourishing progeny of twelve children,one of whom a hunter happened to shoot one day, mistaking it for his more lawful prey. To console the unhappy father, the re- pentant hunter gave hima compensa- tion in money, which he considered ap proaching adequacy from his own point of view, but which seemed so magni- ficent to the gipsy father,that he ventur- ed to suggest that if his benefactor should think of hunting again, he still had eleven children who might be turn- ed to account by a similar advantageous mistake.—J. W. Davis in the Manhattan for September.

The question is whetherin the event of future negotiation, the im- position of a tax on grain would Operate in ourfavor. Fancy a Com- missioner delegated by this Government, and sanctioned by the British Government, sent to Wash- ington to negotiate a treaty of Re- ciprocity. The question might be asked what he desired, he replies:

‘I wish to havea free market in the United States for the products of our forest, fields aud mines.’’ Then the United States Comuiis- Sioner might ask: ‘‘and what will you give us in return?” Our repre- Sentative replies: ‘‘IThe free use of our markets for similar products of ourcountry,”’ Theastute American would naturally say: “We have that already. I donotsee that you Offer us anything.” We must re- wmember we should have something to offer when we attempt to open up anew the Reciprocity Treaty.— WILLIAM PATERSON, M. P,

HOW TO MARK THE BALLOTS.

ballot for the

Be sure to mark your Liberal Conservative Candidate

‘‘ The elector, on receiving the ballot- paper, shall forthwith proceed into one of the compartments of the polling station, and there mark his ballot paper, making a cross with a pencil on any part of the ballot- paper within the division containing the name of the candidate for whom he intends to vote, and shall then fold up such balloi- paper, so that the initials on the back can be seen without opening it, and hand it to the Deputy Returning Otticer, who shall, without unfolding it, ascertain, by examin- ing the initials, and the number upon the counterfoil, that it is the same he furnished to the elector, and shall first detach and destroy the counterfoil, and shall then im- mediately, and in the presence of the elec- tor, place the ballot-paper in the ballot- box. —Ballot Act, Sec 40.

No voters should make any mark on the hallot-paper save one cross on any part of the ballot paper within the div.eion con- taining the candidate’s name for whom he intends to vote. If the voter writes his name or initials, or any remarks, he makes his ballot useless.

A simple cross upon the ballot for your candidate will assist in electing him. Any other mark or writing will contribute to their defeat.

1. Poll opens at nine o'clock a. m., and closes at five o’clock p. m.

2. Vote early.

3. See that your Liberal Conservative neighbor votes early also.

t. If you have a vehicle, place it at the; service of your Committee to bring tardy voters tothe polls. Give the information to the Secretary of Committee.

5. Do not ‘‘pair’? on polling day with your Grit neighbor, Poll your own vote and let him look out for his.

6. Poll every possible vote ; the loss or gain of a single vote in each sub-division may make all the difference between victory and defeat.

7. If your returning officers and deputy returning officers are Grits watch them.

8 Each Liberal-Conservative should vote as though the result of the election de- pended upon his individual exertions.

9. Remember that any bribery, corrupt treating, hiring of vehicles, paying of voters’ expenses, or any undue influence, will not only void the election, but is pun- ishable by law.

10, Electors can only vote at one polling sub-division in the same electoral division, no matter in how many sub-divisions they may have votes.

11. Any elector’s vote may be challenged who has received anything on account of his vote, or has been promised anything directly or indirectly, either to induce him to vote at the election or for loss of time, travelling expenses, hire of teams, or any other service connected therewith ; or even if the said elecetor has dirctly or indirectly paid or promised anything to any person, either to induce him to vote or to refrain from voting at the election.

13. An elector having more votes than one in the same electoral district should vote in that electoral sub-division in which he resides. Attention to this rule will facilitate the polling, and possibly contri- bute to the individual elector’s comfort.
