The bird* did sin* and go did I 1
Aal trudged o'er each acre,
I never knew what 1 waa to oigll
Till I saw Betaey Baker.
At church 1 met her. fair and neat,
One Sunday in hot weather.
With love I found my heart did beat.
And we tang pealma together.
When church was over, out she walked.
But 1 did overtake tier,
i >rmin*<i I should not be balked,
I spoke to lleUey Raker.
Her manner* (were genteel and coot.
And in her conversation
I found .be had ]uet left boarding school
And (inished her education.
Vet love made me speak out quite flea.
Said 1: “I’ve many an acre.
Will you cive me yoaa company!"
“1 won't." said Betsey Baker.
All my entreaties were In vain.
And I was forced to leave her.
I suffered a most intense pain.

The doctor came, he smelt his cane.

Because 1 was not bad enough
He dosed me and he pUled me,
And if I had taken half his stuff
I think it would have killed me.
So I put an end to all the strife
Betwixt him and the undertaker.
And what do you think did save my life!
Why. thought, of Bsbey Baker.

Once more with love attacked her.
But meantime she had got acquaint

If she would have him, he did say.
A lady he would make her.
He gammoned her to run away.
So I lost Betsey Baker. '

ATREACHEBOUSMAID
Mine. Loofonrcade, the wife of an
army officer daring the French revolu
tion, was applied to by the wife of an
other officer to afford concealment for
her hnsband.
Mine. Loufonrcade lived a short dis
tance from the city of Lyons. She had
fonr servants, and the main difficulty,
provided the officer could reach her
dwelling without discovery, was how
best to guard the secret from them.
It was finally decided that one of the
females should be taken into her confi
dence and that the officer, who was h
rather effeminate looking man, should
come disguised in female attire and be
passed off as a cousin of Fanche.tte.
So Fanchette, a rather pretty girl, was
made acquainted with everything.
Captain Lavevgne made his appear
ance in duo time, disguised as a woman,
and so well did he look and play his
part that be was not suspected by the
other servants of being different from
what he seemed. In order, however, to
incur as little risk as possible, he pre
tended to be greatly fatigued by his
journey, and was, soon after his arrival,
shown to a private room on the upper
floor, which he did not leave again for
a week, it being given out that he was
qnite ill.
At the end of the time mentioned some
eight or ten soldiers made their appear
ance at the mansion and demanded the
person of Captain Lavergne.
“If you think there is any such individ
ual nnder this roof, yon can make your
search,” replied Mme. Loofonrcade.
When the servants were called togeth
er, the lady perceived that Fanchette was
pale and trembling.
As soon as the officer saw her he ex
claimed:
“Well, wench, did you tell the truth
or not? If yon did, it’B all right with
yon, and you needn’t be scared; if yon
didn't, it’s my honest opinion you’ll soon
be a head shorter.”
i “What is this?” cried Mme. Loufour-
cade, in astonishment.
“Well, I don’t carer said Fanchette.
assuming an impudent manner. “It’s
time the aristocrats was put down and
made to know that other people is as
good as them. I heard there was a re
ward of a thousand francs offered for
this man, who’s dared to come here and
pass himself off as a female, and I thought
I’d just as good a right to the money as
anybody.”
“Ana for this yon have sold your soul,”
groaned her mistress. ,
“Don’t come any religions talk over
met” cried Fanchette. “I know more of
what’s been going on than yon tMnb
Religion’s been swept away'by a decree,
and death’s an eternal sleep."
“That’s all true, girt,” chimed in the
officer with an emphatic oath. “But
while we're talking the man may get
away. Here, guard, seize and bind all
these parties."
There was no resistance made by the
mistress and her terrified servants, and
in a very short time all eioept Fanchette
were secured with cords.
“Now, girl,” said the officer, with a
coarse laugh, “show ns the way to your
sweet female cousin.”
Captain Lavergne meantime was not
entirely ignorant of his peril. From his
window he had seen the approach of the
soldiers and rightly conjectured they
were in quest of himself. His apartment
was so Ntnated that he could not go
down stairs and escape without being
sem by some of the servants. He was
alarmed, and his mind became active to
devise some means of defense or escape.
He had in his possession a brace of load
ed pistols, and Us first idea was to bar
ricade his door and sell his life aa dearly
aa possible, but in looking about the
apartment he noticed , the fireplace and
discovered that the chimney was large
enough to admit his person. He could
the light at the top, and it occurred
to him that perhaps he might escape,
and he resolved to make the trial.
Taking his pistols with him, Captain
Lavergne hurriedly pushed his way up
the chimney, with the view of getting
on the roof, bnt when he had ascended
some eight or ten feet ho discovered to
his agreeable surprise that there was a
kind of recess, such as were
little more freely, though still with a
good deal of Hamm* apprehension. He
feared that in coming up he had shaken
down a sufficient quantity of soot to be
tray his manner of escape and give a
clew to his place of retreat. But a
glance downward at his clothes con
vinced him that he had Httle to be
alarmed about in this respect—for t£is
fine had never been much used, his gar
ments were not badly soiled, and be
could not perceive dirt enough below to
attract attention.
He had not long to wait before he
heard the soldiers enter the room, led by
the treacherous girl.
“Ha! be escapedr exclaimed the latter
In alarm.
The officer s^ore some terrible oaths
and fiercely demanded winch way.
“Either np the chimney or into some
Other part of the house,” said Fanchette.
“He was here a few minutes ago."
‘•Quick, men, fly about, he’s not up
here," cried the officer, looking np the
chimney. “Two of yon run out and see
if he’s on the roof, and the rest ransack
the house! If we don’t find him. we’ll
burn it down!"
A hurried search was apparently made
of the room they were in, and then Cap
tain Lavergne heard the soldiers in dif
ferent parts of the honse opening and
banging doors, shouting and enrsing.
He felt his situation now to be very crit-
ital indeed, for should tlv_> house be
fired be feared there might be no escape
for him. After awhile the noise and tu
mult subsided, and every moment he
was in trembling expectation of hearing
or seeing something to indicate that the
building was on fire, and he now re
solved t# make another bold effort for
his life. He reasoned that those sent
outside to soo if he was on the roof had
already rejoined the others, and he now
resolved to gain the roof, and if he could
do so undiscovered to venture a leap
among the thick shrubbery at the rear
of the mansion.
In the course of two or three minutes
this dangerous feat was successfully exe
cuted, and Captain Lavergne found him
self once more on tho ground outside
considerably scratched and bruised, but
not seriously injured. Ho now heard
loud voices inside and hnrriedly stole
away through the shrubbery.
The searching officer, not finding any
trace of the man he sought, at last be
came enraged at the treacherous girl
and accused her of deceiving him. This
impression was soon strengthened into
conviction by Mme. Loofonrcade and
the other servants, and the whole affair
ended in the release of the prisoners and
the arrest of Fanchette, who was her
self marched off to prison, where she
died.
After the soldiers had gone Captain
Lavergne returned to the mansion to as
sure Mme. Loofouroade of his safety
and then set off to make Ids escape from
the country, which he accomplished and
lived to return at the end of the Reign
of Terror.—Exchange.
Ancient and Modern English Gone.
Nelson’s, ship, the Victory, was de
signed to carry 101 guns, consisting of
32, 24 and 12 pounders, ranged on her
upper, main, middle and lower decks.
She was also armed with a few 68-pound
er carronades. The weight of her one
broadside of single shotted guns was
1,104 pounds, which was considered pro
digious in those days. In the account of
the battle of Trafalgar, in which action
this ship played so prominent a part, the
broadside that she poured into the
French Bncentaure is described as ter
rific, dismounting 20 of her adversary’s
guns and killing and wounding no less
than 400 of her officers and men.
Compare this with our guns of the
present day, when a single gun of the
Nile or Trafalgar throws a projectile
100 pounds heavier than the whole
broadside of the Victory, while one of
onr 101-ton guns discharges a projectile
weighing no less than 1,800 pounds! It
may be of interest to know that while
only 825 pounds of powder were ex
pended in the discharge of a broadside
from the Victory as much as 3,000
pounds weight of powder is consumed
in firing the broadside of the Victoria or
the Sans Pared, two of our modern iron
clads!—Good .Words.
The Problem of the Cradle.
Ever since the world began mothers
have been rocking cradles and singing
lullabies. From time immemorial the
problems have existed. What can we
do with this baby? Where can we put
it so that it will be safe? How can we
manage to secure a few intervals of
peace and tranquillity? How can we still
Ua cries and whines? How can we teach
it to walk? In a word,- how can we
emancipate ourselves from the absorbing
tyranny of these sweet babes, our off
spring?
The solutions which have been in
vented by the solicitude, the ingenuity.
end the instinct of mothers have token
the form of cradles, swaddles, leading
strings and gocarts. The variety of
these inventions ik considerable, and a
description of them would form, per
haps, a curious chapter in the history of
hygiene and domestic economy.—Har

A Sit of Jewish Wit.
A striking commentary was recently
made by a Russian Jew on the judicial
•corruption which sustains his country.

cities of his empire and noticed a fine
