On Two Sides of a Hail- ENOCH MORGAN’S SONS ton<le U se<. Railroad Time Table, Once, on a pilgrimage to St. Maiy » Loch i and the Grey ’Mare’s Tail, I put op for the j night at the well-known “Jenny O’BirkhillV | on the top of the watershed between the j streams which fall into the Germ in Ocean and those that reach the Irish Sea. Some j •Wast-Country folk’ were stayiog in the i house at the same time, and in the morning I I was awakened by the shrill voice of a girl j shouting behind uoy door, “Mither ! inilher ! j the wain’s walking ! * My instinctive impulse was to understand wain as waggon, and the j sentence as, “Mother ’.—the waggon's walking or moving off! ’when the voice of a child io an adjoining room reminded me of wean—a word not in ordinary use in onr dialect, but famil iar enough in the writings of Burns, where, however, I did not read wain but ween, or weean. The sentence nit become, “Moth er!—baby’s walking!" Quite accidentally I afterwards found out that what I bad heard J as walkin’ was wauken —awake— and that the information conveyed was neither “the wagon is walking” nor “baby is taking its first tod- j die;’’but “Mother!—baby is awake!” or, as it would have been in Teviotdale, “Mather ! the bairn’s weaken !” .1 smiled to thiDk how I had been as completely tripped up by a sim ple sentence in a Scottish dialect, separated trom my own cnlv by a ridge of bills, as if it had been French or German. I have since found that a mistake, the converse of mine, was made, under less extenuating circum stances, by Pinkerton, in bis “Scottish Bal lads” of 1873. Among the poems given in that collection is “Christis Kirk of the Grene,” in which are the lines: "Bom 6tr»1c with ('tinea, sum gather! t atalui*. Sum flrd and ill iniochevit; The tneattnl wan within tan wain is, I hat day lull well he previt. For ho cam hame with unbirat brain*. Qaliair fechtarics wer mischievit.” Wain h gloseed by Pinkerton as “a child,” so that the minstrel tonnd his safety from the s l Aini8 an.! atraiks, not in cronebiug between two wagons, bat between two children. A South Coautiy friend, whose parents were natives of Central Scotland, where ea is still pronounced as ai, as in Shakespeare's English, and the words pear, bear, tear, wear, relates how he used, when a boy, to be puzzled w’ith the expression, “We played—we played with thee,” regularly used by bis father in con- ! ducting family devotions. Why there should be so much said about playing in the family ! prayers, was a mysteiv which was only 1 cleared up oj revisiting the paternal home in latter years, when the expression was found to be, “We plead with Thee.”— Tie Dialect of \ the Southern Counties of Scotland, by James A. i 11. Murray. All’s Well That Ends Well. Saturday evening, says the Saciarnento Union, a gentleman in the employ of the Cec il nl Pacific Iviilroad Company drove out to a place about fifteen miles lrom the city, where bis family i re stopping, and soon afterward started out on his return to town. Before starting, lie lighted his meerschaum and in- dulgtdin a long aud pleasant smoke as he drove along. This over, he placed the pipe in the outer brei&t pocket of his coat, and paid no more attention to it. By and by, a peculiar smell greeted bis olfactories—a smell of burning woolen cloth—and, as it in creased, he began to lo»k abont to see if bis garments w»re on fire, and at the first movement be fonud that the whole pocket I had bnrned out of his coat, and the fire was spreading lapidly. He grabbed at the burn ing material hastily, but was so nervous about it that he frightened the horse, and the animal ran. To make the matter worce, the lines were not buckled together, and one slipped out of bis grasp while he was endeavoring to smother the fire with his other hand. Still worse, the increased speed increased the breeze, which fanned the fire, and portions of it dropped down upon his pants, burning through them, and causing him to bounce up and down on the seat as though he were trying to settle an unusually hearty meal! There he was—horse running away, line dragging and fire rapidly making the cuticle of his leg rival the hue of his red flannel nndotclotbiug! At hist, bv dint of dexterous clawing, be managed to smother the fire, then stepped out on the shatts aud recovered the line, aud in the course of time S A P O L.

This is owing ; tor parties llMIlg at a distance ‘, pr io to several large works jo the Cleveland dts- - * - trict which were laid oil having recommenced operations —notably, tbe Britannia woTk«, the- weekly production of finished iron of j which is 2,000 tons. . Hematite iron gets firmer again as the time for tbe reduction ot the German duty draws near. The foundries ia the West Yorkshire district arc well em ployed, and great diffic ulty is experienced in getting engineering work of ail description competed. The forges, mills, c*:c , art* still only moderately employed, yet there is lo actual ch sing of works, as orders for imu: .- diate deliveiy are continually coming ir. This betokens immediate resuscitation of the trade when consumers shall have fuliy real ized that the prices of fuel will be maintain ed. The prices of plate, bars, etc, remain nominally at the figures given las: week, but in several cases we have heard of fiorn 10* to 20s per ton more have been given very re - cently. Several large orders tor rails, bars, etc., are about to be given out for South America and India. It is Loped and believ ed that a certain portion, and cot a small one, will be secured by tbe ironmasters of this district. On the whole, things look bet ter for the iron trade r.ow than they have ' ^ARIETTA STREET done for some tune past, and tbe general ' leeltug is that there will be a good autumn trade. —[London Shipping Gazette, Aug. 23.
