"Get t ut of my house!" she cried, as she reached the landing. In a paroxysm of passion he struck her a blow in the fate thai caused her to roll down stairs. Then he threw himsell with h'.s whole strength against the doar. Almost o.i the threshold he was met ly a eautilul young woman. She was en deshabille, Hushed and ex cited.

Sotno mothers would saurilice their daughters' happiness tor riches, hut 1 am i ot ot that class." Hie young man gave a start of alarm. He didn't know whether he liked Sarah or not, and he didn't ihitk of such a thing as marriage, "Mie has acknowledged to mo lhal she loves yon," continued Ihemothei, and what is lor her happiness is for mine."

It consumed 79,028,000 cubic feet of stone; and Mr Tile adds lhal it could not now be built for less than 30,000,000, sterling. The joint of the large easing blocks of granite were so fine as lo be scarcely percep tible, not thicker than paper, and the mortar was so adhesive that the stones, in sum- ca es, broke through their substance rather ihan ive way al their jointing.

Fancy farmers men who work for pleasure rather than gain have been ridiuculed injustly; for they have beeo to farmers what inventors have been to manufacturerr. They have experi mented for the good ot the world, while others hitko simply worked fur their own sain. They tested theories, while others have raised crops for market. They have given dignity and glory to the occupation ot farm ing it never had before. Fancy far mers have changed the wild boar into the Suffolk ami Berkshire; the wild bull of Britain into tho Shorthorn; thu mountain sheep, wiih its loan body and hair fleece, into Soullid iwn ard Merino. They have increased the capabilities and usefulness of all l iuesi io animals. They introduced irrigation and iinaeMraining, grinn ing ni.d cooking food for stock. They oic'lii guano Iron) rem and nitrate of soda lium Chili. They introduced and domesticated all ' the plants we have ot fcr-ign origin.

Most singular was the escape of young Shropshire, lady from an igno m;uious death Slaying iu Paris duf ing the Heign of Terror she was dragged with other unfortunate "aiisiocrits" before ene of tho tribu nals. S!ii pleaded that she was an English w oman; but was on tho point ot being hurried out to the waiting tumbril, when one ef the Judges ssked ber what provincn in Eng land she was a native of. In her fright she exclaimed "Salup," a reply greeted by a general shout and dap ping of bauds, followed by an order io let ber go; and amid cries of "Sa- 1 ipo ! Salope 1" the dazed girl was hustled into thesitectto run noma, wonderinrrjhat her bead was still on her shoulders, little thinking that by uttering tlio word '-balop, she bail effectually rebutted the notion of her being one ef the haled aristocrats, thanks to "Salope" being a word then used lo designnto one of the most depraved ol her sex. Another re markable escape ef that terrible lime was that of M. De Chatoaubrun, for he was not only condemnod, but ac tually waited his turn at tho guillo tine, standing sixteenth in a line of twenty. The filteenth head bad fall en, whon the machine rot out of oider, and tho five had to wait ur til it was repaired. The crowd pressed forwurd lo seo what was going on; and as it began to grow dark M. Do Chateaubaiin lound himself gradually thrust into the rear of tho spectators; si lie wisely siippuii away, aim meet ing a man simple enough or charita ble enough to take l.is word that a wag had tied his hands and run off with his hat, had his hands set free, and managed to reach a safe hiding place. A lew days later he put him self beyond tli9 reach of the exec tioncr. The Currlage Trirk. , Chambers' Joiini d. A certain builder of carriages made a practice of keeping a carriage on hand lo palm off on the executors ef deceased noblomea. It was a costly vehicle, handsomely . tiled up. Al soon as tho death ot a nobleman oc curred, tho carriage was decorated with the arms of the deceased in tho best style of herald painting, with this preparation a letter was dispatch ed to tho exeouters respectful in quiring when it would be convenient lo remove the carrugo which had been built according to the orders of Ins lordship. It had been some time ready to be taken away, and the price was 190, or some such sum. This unpleasant announcement usually led io a compromise. The oarriage not being wauled, a sum of money was paid by the executors, to take it off t'leir hands. This was precisely what . was anticipated. Tho carriage wae now ready for a fresh start in pleader ing. Thoarmoral benrings were oblit erated; and lhe panels were prepared i to receive tho heral lie blazonry oflhe next nobleman on whose xeoutors the same trick could bo played off. Vnrv clever this: but. like all roguer ies, it was at length found out, Bnd a loss ef reputation ensued. What be came ol the carriage that had under gone 80 many irHiisioruiawune wv know not.

Wo do not believe that Hank ever . made an e&emv, unless il was the late Horace Greeley. Thie reminde us of an anecdote. When Horace Greely was running for the Presiden cy Hank thought the old man might reward him for gelling him through "on time" a few years before, so he wrote to the veteran philosopher, asking far some easy and lucrative government billet in the event of hie election. Mr. Greeley replied: "I would ralher see you in ten thousand fathoms in hell than give you a crust of bread, for you are the only roan who ever had tho power to place me in a ridiculeus light before tbo Amer ican people, and you villainously ex ercised tb.it power."
