“MADE OF KISSES.” “What are you made of, Maggie, dear?” Maggie turns trom Rover With the strictest reverence— lJust her grandma over!) In the truest, bluest eyes, Back of sunny lashes, While the earnest answer eomts: “Made of dust and ashes.” “What are you made of, JohnDy, boy ?” Boy stands still a minute ; If there’s any mischief round, He’s the one that’s in it. “I ain’t dirt I" His brown eyes gleam, And he archly reaches Toward the basket’s winy hoard : “Guess I’m cream and peaches.” “What are you made of, Taddie, pet ?” Taddie’s eyes are glowing ; Two white hands put back the curls, Two white teeth are showing ; And the smiles, they twinkle round Like a band of blisses, “Cause they takes ’em all the time, ’Speet I’m made of kisses.” “FOR THOUGHTS.” A pansy on bis breast she laid, Splendid, and dark with Tyrian dyes , “Take it; ’tis like your tender eyes, Deep as the midnight heaven,” she said The rich rose mantling in her cheek, Before him like the dawn she stood, Pausing upon life’B height, subdued, Yet triumphing, both proud and meek. And white as winter stars, intense With steadfast fire, his brilliant face Bent toward her with an eager grace, Pale with a rapture half suspense. "You give me, then, a thought, 0 sweet 1” He cried, and kissed the purple flower, And bowed by love’s resistless power, Trembling he sank before her feet. She crowned this beautiful bowed head With one caress of her white hand ; “Rise up, my flower of all the land, For all my thoughts are yours,” she said [Scribner’s Monthly §utmoron& The man who carries everything before him—the waiter. "Paws for a reply,” as the cat said when she scratched the dog tor barking at her. An lowa papei boasts of weather cold enough to make an Arctic bear wear puise warmers. "What are you doing ?” said a father to his sod, who was tinkering at an old watch. "Improving my time, sir.” A crusty old bachelor says that Adam’s wife was called Eve, because when she ap peared man’s day of happiness was drawing to a close. "Husband, I don’t know where that boy got bis bai temper. I am sure not from me.” "No, my dear, for I don’t find that you have lost any.” "Here’s your in-waders,” shouted a mem ber of the 11th Mississippi regiment, as Gen. Lee’s^veteran army plunged into the Potomac, on its way to Gettysburg. "And here’s your wetter-uns,” echoed a gallant soldier of the old 4th Alabama. The following letter was received by an undertaker recently from an afflicted wid ower; “Sur—My Wiaf is ded and Wonts to 4 be berried tomorrow At woner klock. U nose wair to dig the hole—by the sice of my two Other wiafs—Let it be deep!” Mississippi horses are taking to bad courses, if we may eredit the verdict of a colored coroner’s jury in Yallabusha county, which decided that a defunct darkey and his equally lifeless steed died “from the effects of butting tbeir brains out against a tree while intoxicated.” A minister about to chastise a servant for lying, was asked : “Master, don’t you preach that God ordains whatever comes to pass ? Then how could I help doing what I did ?” The master replies: "It was also ordained that I should chastise you for it, and how can I help doing it ?” A man once went to a lawyer’s office and told the legal gentleman that he had been insulted by a man who told him to go to , and desired to know what he should do. The lawyer suavely said: “I wouldn’t advise’you to go; the law doesn’t compel you.” “A physician on presenting his bill to the estate of a deceased patient, asked : “Do you wish to have my bill sworn to ?” “No,” replied the executor. “The death of the deceased is sufficient evidence that you attended him professionally.” A Sunday-school scholar, only eight years old, was asked why they took Stephen out side the city to stone him to death. The little fellow thought a moment and replied : “So they could get a better crack at him.” A Michigan father wrote to a lottery ageni, “I do not approve of lotteries; I re gard them as no better than gambling schemes. My son bought ticket No. sin your drawing, but if it drew anything don’t send the money to him—send it to me.” The father will probably feel relieved to learn that the ticket didn’t draw anything. “Mike, will you come in and take a drink ?” Mike looked at the man for the space of half a minute, and then, rolling his eyes upward, very softly said: “I to’t it was an angel spakin’ to me.” The last fashionable kink is pop-corn par ties. It is claimed that they not only keep young men from another kind of corn and par ties, but that they are very suggestive of a •question they ought to pop. “Madam,” said a certain n; meless one to Mrs. Brown, the other day, “you are talking simple rubbish.” “Yes, sir,” replied the ever-crushing lady, “because I wish you to oomprehend me.” STRIKINGLY BEAUTIFUL. Spreading rapidly through the Western papers, under the credit ot Literary Jour nal, is a domestic story in the very latest style of American humor, us the appended extract shows: A New Casabianca. —The man looked at his boy proudly, sternly, sorrowfully. The lad looked into his father’s faee sadly, exultingly, heroically. It was a living tab leau no artist could reproduce. "Billy,” said the father gravely, “I took your mother and sister to church yesterday.” "Yes, sir.” “And left you to see to the things.” "Yes, sir,” replied the boy, gjzing out at the flicker as it hitched down the gatepost, and finally dropped into the grass with a shrill chirp. “And you didn’t water the pigs?” “O-o-o! Oh, sir! Geeroody! Ob, me! Lawsy, lawsy me!” The slender scion of an apple tree rose and fell in the hand of Mr. Coulter, and up trom the jacket of the lad, like incense from an altar, rose a cloud of dust, mingled with the nap of jeans. Down in the young clover of the meadow the lark and cat-birds sang cheerily, the gnats and the flies danced up and down in the sunshine, the fresh, soft leaves rustled gently, fanned by the gentle zephyrs of balmy spring, and all was merry indeed. Billy’s eyes turned up towards the lace of the inflex : ble parent in mute but appealing agony, but still, with a sharp hiss, the switch cut the air, falling steadily and mer cilessly on his shoulders. And along the green banks of the river the willows shook their shiny fingers at the lifting fog, and the voices of children going by to school smote the sweet May wind. "Oh,pap; I'll not forget the pigs no more !” “’Spect you won’t neither.” The wind, by a sudden puff, lifted into the room a shower of white bloom petals from a sweet-apple tree, letting them fall gracefully on the beautiful rag carpet, the while a plowman whistled plaintively in a distant field.— "Outch ! Crackee! Oh, pap, pap!” "Shut your mouth, or I’ll split you to the back bone.” How many delightful places in the woods, how many cool spots beside the mur muring river, would have been more pleas ant to Billy than the place he then occupied. "Oh, me ! Oh, me !” yelled the lad. Still the dust rose and danced in the slanting jet of sunlight that fell across the room, and the hens out at the barn cackled and sang for joy over new eggs hid in choice places. At one time during the fulling of the rod, the girl quit washing, and thrusting her head into the kitchen, said, iD a subdued tone, “My land, ain’t Bill giftin' an awful one ?” “You’re migyty right,” said the sympathising mother, solemnly. Along to ward the last, Mr. Coulter tiptoed at every stroke. The switch actually screamed thro’ the air as it fell. Billy danced. "Now, go, sir!” cried the man, tossing the frizzled stump of the gad out at the window. "Go now, and the next time you water them pigs.” And while the finch poured out a cataract of melody from the sighing locust, he went. Poor boy, that was a terrible thrashing, and, to make it Worse, it had been promised to him the evening before, so that he had been dreading it and shiver ing over it all night. Now, as he walked through the breakfast room, his sister looked at him in a commiserating way, but cn pass ing through the kitchen he could not catch the eye of his mother. Finally, he stood in the free, open air, in front of the saddle closets. It was just then a speckled rooster on the barnyard fence flopped his wings and crowed vociferously. A turkey-gobbler was strutting upon the grass by the old cherry tree. Billy opened the door of the closets. “A hoy’s will is the wind’s will, and the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts.” Billy peeped into the closet, and then cast a glance about him, as if to see if anything was near. At length, during a pleasant lull in the morning wind, and while the low, tenderly mellow flow of the river was dis tinctly audible, and the song of the finch in creased in volume, and the bleating of new lambs in the meadow died in fluttering ech oes und.’r the barn, and while the fragrance of apple blossoms grew fainter, and while the sun, now flaming just above the eastern treetops, launch a shower of light over him from head to foot, he took from under his jacket behind a double sheepskin, which, with an ineffable smile, he tossed into the closet. Then, as the yellow flicker, rose rapidly from the grass, Billy walked off, whistling the air of that once popular ballad, “Oh, give me back my fifteen cents.” A WHOLE FAMILY BEWITCHED. A correspondent of the Roanoke, N. C., Times tells a remarkable story of a whole family bewitched in the “Bend,” three miles from Salem. The limes vouches for the truth of the statement, and says great ex citement exists among the people of the neighborhood. A Mrs. Beamcr was fired upon a few days ago because someone be lieved her to be a witch, and many of the neighbors are badly scared, for the reason that they do not know what moment they may be taken for the devil. The correspon dent thus describes his visit to the “Bend.” Mrs. Kypcs, with little less clothing on than served to hide the nakedness of our Mother Eve, standing on the topmost bough of an apple tree, praying most earnestly that the fiends of hell might be made to come out of her. About two hundred yards fur ther on, in different fence corners on bended knees and with loud wailings, Mr. Ellis and another man were found begging forgive ness for their sins of the past and escape from the evil ones which had taken posses sion ot their neighbors. Convinced by these sights there was a mystery to be solved, we at once proceeded to the house of Ellis’s neighbor, one Mr; Mangus, and there found the cause which had given rise to so much excitement throughout the settlement, to have origina ted in this: Mangus on the day previous had a very sick horse, which he was pro ceeding to drench, when Ellis, happening to come by, told him the horse was not sick but spelled by a witch, the witch he had power to conjure out of him. Of course Mangus was delighted, and El lis at once commenced with his mumbles and signs to effect a cure. These he contin ued several hours, the horse in the mean time growing worse and worse; finally, he in despair informed Mangus that a silver bullet was the last and most effective remedy to rid the animal of its tormentor. Quickly one was moulded, put into a rifle and fired at the horse, which fell dead. Shocked at the result, Ellis declared he had seen it come out and enter the cow, which was standinjjfin the same yard; thereupon it too was killed, and successively a dog, hog and cat; but horrible to relate, upon expulsion from the animals, Mangus felt it enter him self, and was taken suddenly iU. Ellis was now seized by Mangus’ sons, and securely bound hand and foot, as from him they swore they would extract with a silver ball the witch which had caused so great a ca lamity to be visited upon them. Feeling that his hour had come, Ellis so improved the time during which the bullet was being moulded, as to persuade and con vince them that to draw a sketch ot him and fire the bullet through it, would rectify all things, even to restoring the dead animals to life, but in order to its efficacy, he must first be loosed and placed in the woods, so that the witch might not he able to find him, but upon expulsion would be immediately snatched in the air and so banished the set tlement. The plan was adopted ; the ball fired through his supposed likeness, but with unsatisfactory results; whereupon immedi ate search was made for Ellis, who, as might have been expected, was found—mis3iDg. Whether Ellis’ flight has restored confi dence throughout the settlement I have not yet heard, but was told that at sun-down of the same day Ellis was seen with a shot-gun near the resideace of Mr. 8., inquiring if Mangus’ sons had passed the road. Upon reply they had not, but were expected by soon, he bade a hasty good evening and over the fields took his way. THE SALARY STEAL. Th & Nation, one ot the oldest and most, independent Republican journals in the United States, expresses itself on the sub ject of the salary steal, hitting right and left the men who followed the “JButlerites” in this spoliation of the Treasury. It says: Nothing, we think, which any Congress has done for many years has excited as much public iudignation as the vote of the “back pay” to themselves by the gentlemen of the XLlId, who have just gone home. The obscurity of most of them will of course be a sufficient shield hereafter, and will enable them to enjoy the money in peace. But the offence differs little, if at all, from that of a president of a bank who should raise his own salary in the middle of the year, pay himself out of the till, and then resign, and set the directors at defiance. In fact, it is worse, because a bank president would know that he might be reached by the law, while Congressmen know they arc safe against the only pursuit which for many of them has any terror —that of criminal justice. One of the most striking results of the caucus system is that it has given us a class of ‘statesmen’ on whom the opinion of the de cent and moral elements of American socie ty has absolutely no influence, and who rev el in an unprecedented callousness. It is just possible, however, that a good many, if not all, of the minority who voted against the bill considers that they have thus dis charged their obligations to virtue, and that they may now pocket the money along with the Butlcritcs. We trust constituencies will do all in their power to dissipate this delusion, and that the neighbors of returned legislators will make them understand that it is as disgraceful to take the money as to vote for it. Congress is not without histori cal precedent for its performance, to be sure; but, on the other hand, neither are the peo ple without historical precedent for their disgust and their clamor, and their punish ment of this kind ot legislation.” A Promising Youth. —The Washing ton Capital tells this: At an elegant dinner party given in this city the enfant terrible of the family was per mitted to occupy a seat near one of the most distinguished guests. This bete noir is much given to conundrums, which are not always appropriate. Moreover, the young man had a sister who i3 a shining belle in society. Eliza is the name of the young lady, but the young scapegrace will call her Lize. The company were startled by the voice of the youngster asking, “Why is father like the devilAn awkward pause ensued. Then he shouted out, “Be cause he is the father of Lize !” (lies.) That boy didn’t get his desert, for he was sent to bed. 800 Pages, 250 Engravings.

Probably never before in the whole history of medicine, has any thing won so widely and so deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a long series of years, and among most of the races of men it has risen higher and higher in their estimation, •'s it has become better known. Its uniform charade. and power to cure the va rious affections of the lungs and throat, have made it known as a reliable protector against them. While adapted to milder forms of disease and to young children, it is at the same time the most effectual remedy that can be given for incip ient consumption, and the dangerous affections of the throat and lungs. Asa provision against sudden attacks of Croup t it should be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all are some times subject to colas and coughs, aU should be provided with this antidote for them. Although settled Consumption is thought In curable, still great numbers of cases where the disease seemed settled, have been completely cured, and the patient restored to sound health by the Cherry Pectoral. So complete Is Its mastery over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that the most obstinate of them yield to it. When nothing else could . each them, under the Cherry Pectoral they subside and disappear. Singe. •* and Public Speakers find great protection from it. Asthma is always relieved and often wholly cured by it. Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the Cherry Pectoral in small and frequent doses. So generally are its virtues known, that we need not publish the certificates of them here, or do more than assure the public that its qualities are frilly maintained. Ayer’s Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &0., and indeed all the affeotions which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic poisons. As its name implies, it does Cure, and does not feil. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis muth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance whatever, it in nowise injures any pa tient. The number and importance of its cures in the ague districts, are literally beyond account, and we believe without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine. Our pride is gratified by the acknowledgments we receive of the radical cures effected in obstinate cases, and where other rem edies had wholly failed. ... Unacclimated persons, either resident in. or travelling through miasmatic localities, will be protected by taking the AGUE CUBE daily. For Liver Complaints, arising from torpid ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimu lating the Liver into healthy activity. . For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is an excellent remedy, producing many truly remarkable cures, where other medicines had failed. „ _ .... Prepared by Du. J. C.
