An exchange paper says :--- “ Nempaper subscriptions are in- falliable indices of man’s moral honesty. They will, sooner or later, discover the man. If he is dishonest he will cheat the printer in some wayâ€"say he has paid when he has notâ€"declare he has a receipt somewhere-nor sent the money and it was lost in the mail--- or will take the paper {or years without paying and then move off and leaVe it coming to the olfice he had left. Thousands of professed Christians are dishonest, and the printer’s book will tell fearful tales in the final judgment.” “ Haye you lnade choice 0[ 21 profession?” inquired a young lady of a gentleman, who was en- deavoring to do the agreeable. “I,” replied the gentleman. “am a journeyman shoemaker.” “ Good heavens!” exclaimed the lady, apâ€" parently much disgusted, “ I lhouglt! you were a student!” The gentleman “ left on suspicion.” A young lady returning late from the opera, as it was raining, ordered the coachman to drive close to the sidewalk, but was still una- ble to step over the gutter. “I can lift you over it,” said coachy. “ Oh no,” said the sweet Miss, “I am too heavy.” “ Lor, Miss,” re- plied John, “I am used to lifting barrels of sugar.” Learn to say “ No,” with decision ; and “ Yes,” with caution. “ No,” with decision, whenever it resists a temptation; “ Yes,” with caution, whenever it implies a promise. A promise once given is a bond inviolable. A man is alâ€" ready of consequence in the world when it is known that we can im- plicitly rely upon him. In 1745, hoops were Worn as large as now. Sir Robert Strange, fleeing from‘pursuit after the battle of Culloden, was concealed in the crisis of his trouble by a. young lady, who offered to shelter him under the ample folds of her petti- coat. To this strange proposal, considering all circumstances, it is not strange that he assented, and here he remained undiscovered. Either love or gratitude suggested the sequel, and they \vere subseâ€" quently married. copy of a letter, lately sent to a parish clerk in Hertfordshire :â€"- “ Mister, my \vief is dede and wants tu be berrid dig a griev fur hur and she shall cum and be berid turmorrer at warmer clock you knose where to dig it by my uthur wief and let it be dip.” There is nothing too little for so little a creature as man. It is by studying little things that we attain the great art of having as little misery and as much happiness as possible. “ How many mills make one cent?” asked a schoolmaster of a promising pupil. “Don’t know sir, but guess it takes a good many cents to make a mill, if they are made of stone.” The teacher fainted. “ Wonderful things are done now-aâ€"days,” said Mr. Trimmins; “ the doctor has given Flack’s boy a newlip from his cheek.” “Ah,” said the lady, “ many’s the time I have known a pair taken from mine, and no painful operation either!” “Young man, do you know what relations you sustain in this World .9” said a minister to a young member of the church. “ Yes, sir,” said the hopeful convert; “ two cousins and a grandmother; but I don’t intend to sustain them much longer.” To prevent the hair falling off :-â€"“ Never allow your wife to see you kissing the servant girl.” He that voluntarily con- tinues in ignorance, is guilty of all the crimes which ignorance pro- duces. Mr. Jaycock changed his boarding-house the mher day, be- cause his landlord would persist in bringing home sausages in his hat. Mr. Doyle left because Mrs. Slocum objected to his driving nails in the bureau to hang his boots on. When you go a fishing, be sure to take a. bite before you start, or you may not get one after.

A young man by the name of Johnson was arrested in Albany, lately, for perpetraling a new “dodge.” He fastened bristles to the tail of a rat and sold him for a squirrel! The purchaser was a gentleman from Germany. The following is a literal (Eb: érrnp 38001:. PoxNEVILLE’s E x P r: m 'r r o N.â€"~- There is a vast and interesting field for exploration in the heart of our continent. Pike, Fremont, and others have done much to make us acquainted with its remarkable physical character, and the vestiges that still remain of a former civili- zation. We learn from the “Triâ€" bune” that the exploration of the country along the banks of the Gila has been considerably ad- vanced by the operations carried on under Colonel Bonneville. The Indian inhabitants of that country â€"principally, indeed, from the nature of the country which they inhabitâ€"are rather formidable ene- mies; and the more we come in contact with them, the less occa- sion there seems for wonder at the success they have met with in overrunning and curtailing the Mexican settlements. They are herdsmen as well as warriors, being often in possession of large flocks of sheep~stolen, however, for the most part, from their Mexican neighbors. They fight desperately, and in a recent engagement two women Were killed, armed and fighting with bows and arrows. Bonneville’s expedition, like others through the country, came upon extensive ruins with immense quantities of broken pottery, indi- cating the former possession of the country by a race superior to the present inhabitants. The service in that country is very severe, in- cluding immense marches over rugged mountains, and across sandy deserts, without water some- times for a march of twenty-four hours or more.â€"-â€".Montrcal fldvertiser. At the present time there are upwards of 800 omnibuses running along various routes in the metropolis,and of this number 595 are the property ofa single and mostly foreign proprietary, the London Gen- eral Omnibus Company. 600 omnibuses, with horses and harness and good will, Were purchased by the Company for the sum of £400,000, or for very nearly £700 for each vehi- cle. The 595 omnibuses ot' the company ran in London in the week ending 31st of Octo- ber, not less than 292,779, miles, or nearly ten times the circumference of the globe, and carrying not less than 920,- 000 passengers. Assuming that the remaining one fourth of the London omnibuses, not} belonging to the company, car- ried an equal proportion oftlre, population ofLondon, 1,113,- 900 persons. The population: of London, at the last census, was 2,362,000, so that a mun- ber equal to very nearly one- halfof the people of London rode one journey in an omni- bus in the week. In a fort~ night the whole population of London would be moved in the omnibuses now running,r in the metropolis. These vehi- cles are worked by6,225 horses. The average cost of each horse is £30, makinga total value of‘ nearly £200,000. The har-‘ SINGULAR ACCIDENT 0N CHRIST- MAS Evaâ€"Among the decorations of St. James (Episcopal) church. at Greenfield, on Christmas Eve, was a large and beautiful ‘ Star in theEast' set some forty feetabove the pulpit and lighted by a fluid lamp. 1n the midst Rev. Mr. Flint’s sermon the star took fire, the evergreens blazed up in a very startling manner. See- ing that the star could not be immed- iately reached and unwilling :o lose his congregation Mr. Flint continued his discourse, when, suddenly, the burning mass gave way and fell up- on the reverend gentleman. the fluid lamp striking him on the back. and scattering the blazing fluid in all di- rections. Fortunately the fire was extinguished before it had done any damage. and Mr. Flint was unhurt. His escape is remarkableâ€"Spring- field Republican. “ Mr. Morrison retired from active buisness several years since, without withdrawing his capital from the mercantile house, and though man- aging his vast funds hiinselfup to the time of his death with all the sagacity of earlier days he has for the last three years been possessed with the idea that he should come to want. Morethan two years ago he commenced doing day-labor Up0n a farm held by one of his tenants for which he received twelve shillings a Week, and this he continued up to the time of his illness. For the last eighteen months he had been a regu- lar applicant for relief to the parish, assembling twice a week with the town paupers at the door of the ’ Union,’ and received with each one of them his two shillings and a quar- ter loaf. His friends have indulged him in these fancies on the ground that it was the best choice of two evils. The truth is' money was his god, and the idea became at last too great for him, and broke him down. And yet he is said to have made a mostjudicious willandhisinvestments up to the last are characterized by great good sense. The pr! pite duty on his will exceeds £ 1000.000.” A recent foreign arrival. says the St. John’s News. brought us the intellegenve that the great English millonaire, Morrison, worth twenty millions of dollars, had died. The following extract from a letter in the Post ( Boston or New York ’!)shows how [:1th benefit he permitted him- selfto receive from all his wealth :â€" OMNIBUSES OF LONDON. Bingularâ€"If True- A. week’s allowance of food for the horses consists of 430,â€" 266 pounds of chopped hay, clover, and straw, equal to 242 loads, and 699,253 pounds of oats, barley and beans, or 2,- 376 quarters, 175 loads of-s’traw are. required for the bedding of the horses. The Company have established immense de- pots where the provender is delivered and prepared for the horses. Steam engines of great power cut the chaff and work appliances for mixing the food, at a great saving of labor and money. The largest of these depots is in Bell-lane. It has been in operation for the last fifteen months, and has supplied daily rations for 1,- 840 horses, and ther have been cut up, mixed and distributed from this establishment each week, 72 loads of hay, clover, and straw, 713 quarters of bruised oats, barley and beans, and 50 loads of straw have been supplied as bedding for the horses. Each horse runs on an average twelve miles per day. The daily cost of the rations of each horse is rather more than 2s 1d., or for horses of each omnibus, ten in number, £1 15.; the other expenses, such as horse-keep- ers, veterinary service, shoe- ing, and others, bring up the total expense for the horses of each omnibus to £1 65 per week. The amount of manu- al labor employed in connec- tion with these omnibuses is very large? The number of men constantly employed as drivers, conductors, and horse- keepers is not less than 2,300, of whom the drivers receive from five to six shilings, the conductors four shillings, and the horse-keepers 35. per day. The “wear and tear” of each omnibus amount to 17s 6d per week, and of the harness, Gs per week. The 595 omnibuses run Over 66 different routes. The average weekly receipts from the whole of the omnibuses is £11,500, but the state of the weather materially affects the receipts â€"thus a very wet day reduces the amount received by from three to four hundred pounds per day. On the 22nd ofOcto- ber, owing to the continuous rain, the receipts fell short of the usual amount by £380. ‘These omnibuses contribute largely to the general revenue ofthe country; the government duty and licenses for the last year were £33,000, while a sum £18,000 was paid for tolls on the different roads run over by the omnibuses. The annexed interesting his- tory of pews was compiled by the editor of the “Electric Museum :”â€"â€"In Anglo Saxon and some Northern churches ofearly date, a stone bench was made to project within the wall running round the whole interior except the east- ern end. In 1019 they are rep- resented as sittiug on the ground or standing. _ About this time the people introdues ed lowmude, ttrree-legg‘ed- stotfi promiscuoust over the “hole church. Wooden seats were soon introduced after the R0- man conquest. In 1027 a de- cree was issued in regard to the wrangling for seats so com- mon that none could call any seat his own, except noblemen and patrons, each entering and holding the one he first seized. As we approach the Reforma- tion, from 1530 to 1540, seats were more appropriateâ€"the entrance being guarded by cross bars and the inititals en- graved on them. Immediate~ ly after the Reformation the new system prevailed; as “'9. learn from a complaint the poor (‘ommons addressed to Henry VII. in reference to a deereethata Bible should be in every church, at liberty for all to read, because they fear- ed it might be. taken into the ‘quire or some ‘pue.’ in 1608 galleries were introduced. As early as 1611 pews were ar- ranged to altbrd comfort, by being baiZed or cushioned, while the sides around were :0 high as to hide those with- inâ€"(a device of the Puritans to avoid being seen by the offi- cers, who reported those who did not stand when the name of Jesus was mentioned) U’ith the reign of Charles the First, the reasons for height- ening the sides disappeared, and from the civil war they declined gradually to their pre- sent height.”-â€"Ltfe Illustrated.
