A Hebrew Legend.

From an ancient, learned Rabbi comes this legend full of grace,

Floating down through countless ages from a lost andscattered race.

Far away, where the horizon forms & line ‘twixt-earth and sky.

There arose a glittering city with its peaks and turrets high.

Flooded with a wondrous glory which in splen- dor downward rolled,

Seemin« like the way to Heaven through a country paved with gold.

Sweet as odors from the tropics was the free, life-giving air, ae 2s Fraught with the divine elixir —making all im-

raortal there.

And the fame of that fair city, seen above the sunset high—

Pointing with its sparkling fingers, ever up- ward to the sky—

Went abroad to all earth’s people, and they clasped their dear ones tight,

And they journeyed from the valleys up to- wards the golden light.

And for long, long years they dwelt there, with Life’s goblet brimming o’er ;

Pp Deep aud deeper though though they qua fied

it, full it sparkled evermore. ,

But a strange and restless yearning woke at last, as years went by,

And they stole away in silence,“one by one— that they might die.

Miscellaneous.

Tilden, Hendricks, and Reform are the names given to triplets by their father, the husband of Mrs. Martha Gibson of Wolf County, Ky.

The President of a woman’s temperance society, at Noblesville, Ind., publicly horse- whipped a man for tempting the husband of a member te drink.

An attempt will seon be made in the Western States to propagate German carp, which have been known to grow in two years to a weight of 10 lbs.

Sir Leonard Tilley and Sir Charles Tup- per will visit Quebec next week as guests of Mr. Caron, M. P. The object of their visit ia to examine the various mannfactor- ies and industries of the ancient ,capital.

At latest advice it was expected that tho “Northampton,” (iron clad) the new flag- ship, would sail from England last week for Bermuda to relieve the flagship ‘‘Bellero phon.” ‘The Commander-in-Chief in Hali- fax will be Vice-Admiral Sir Francis Leo- pold McClintock.

The persons who threw eggs at General Grant while he was speaking from the plat- form of a railroad car at Galesburg, Lil., a few days ayo have been arrested and prov- ed to be three vulgar street boys aged thir teen, fourteen and fifteen years. ‘Lhey say they were not urged to their act by older persens.

The Department*of Marine and Fisheries has received, through the Imperial Board ef T'rade, a gold watch, which has been awarded by the Austro-Hungarian Gorern- ment to Capt. Dunbar, of the ship Hannah Morris, of Windsor, N, §., in recognition of services rendered to the shipwrecked erew of the Austro-Hungarian ship Hunnus.

The Sydney, ©. B., Express has the par- ticulars of a fatal affray on Scatarie Island last week. Two boys, named Scott and McCuish, aged respectively 8 and 12 years, while in their school’s coal cellar getting coal, had « quarrel, and McCuish stabbed his companion in the abdomen with a broom stick, sharpened at the end, causing alinost instantaneous death.

In connection with the departure of the British Avyricultural Delegates from Que- bec on Saturday, that it is the intention of the Government to send no more special immigration agents te Europe, as it is held that the information the returning dele- gates will be able to furnish to intending emigrants, will have far greater weight among the agricultural classes than the paid agents of a colony, who are generally viewed with a degree of suspicion. Such is the actual condition of affairs in Great Britain, that should a tenant farmer be seen speaking to a Government emigration agent, he would bein danger of having his landlord «down ou him, and mayhap, the shoriff in p. ssossion.

Humorous.

Can the last of a ship be called its hull- timatum !

Can refusing an ‘‘offer” be called sleight- ef-hand !

Can a hal! porter be called a ‘‘servant of hal! work /”

Can any two apples be said to be alike if they are pured ?

Can the profits a fisherman makes be said to be always ‘‘net” profits 7

Can working in a coal mine be properly @ nsidered to be labor in vein ?

Can it really be true that the story of an unhappy marriage is often a narrative of many words!

A-tonishing Succ sz.

It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderful qualities be known to their friends in euring Consumption, severe Cougl.s, Cron, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No per- gon can uso it without immediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we eonsider it ihe duty of all Druggists to re-

eommoend it to the poor dying consumptive, |

at least to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no une case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be teo widely known. Ask your Druggist about it. Sample Bottles to try seid at 10 cents. Regular size 75 cents. For wale by all Druggists.

SEMINARY FOR YOUNG LADIES. VISIT OR:

PRINCIPAL:

The Rev, John Padfield.

HIS SCHOOL offers, at very moderate

cost. the advantages of a comfortable and

pleasant home together with a thorough and refined education.

The course of Instruction is the same as that of the best Schools in England and is founded upon the University Examinations for Women. Eight young ladies from this Sch ol passed the Local Lxamination of the University of King’s College in June last. ‘this is the only School in Canada that has passed pupils at a University Examination.

The number of pupils is limited, rendering the School select, and while it possesses all the educational advantages of a large public school, each = is enabled to receive that individual care and oversight which is so important, and which cannot be given ina large establish. ment.

Mr. and Mrs. Padficld are assisted by a staff of four resident governesses, besides visit- ing masters.

Parisienne French is taught conversation- ally. There are two resident French Goy- ernesses,
