There are manv . . rora the vcr ,ll0llt,,s of our such stones in Trinity churchyard, and thousands of people each week puzzle over the melancholy specimens of obit- uary verse inscribed on them. The hand of time has rubbed out many and omers are lust fading away, so that hardly more than half are decinhprnhlu These are of all moods hopeful, chuer- ihi, mounory, despairing, angry, hu morous and religious.

On a broken stone, with the name gone, and only the date. 17C7, visible, are these verses, which nr vi. dently over the grave of a seafaring man: Tho' Ilnt-ens blasts and liolstrous waves Have tost me to and fro, In spite of both tiv Hod's decree I harbour ho re below.

The friends of Ephraiiu Smith, who died in 17U7, were evidently unrecon ciled to his fate when they set up this inscription: Relentless death, ne'er satisfied with nrAV Hath snatched him In the bloom of life awar. Joseph Pell; aged six years, who died in 1802, sneaks from tho grave In this styio: Like as a shadow or the mnrnlnir itnw My davs are past and spent, which wore but row; Orlove not for me, denr parents, 'tis In vain; Your loss, I hope, is my eternal iraln. Hero is one of an amatory kind, over iiydia uirtis, who died in 1804: Told as this stone Is now that, lorelv fnem The slirht of which could every bosom warm; ctixi wiin uiii. cart n us inoiiineriiiir ashes He, au i yuum nuu ueauiy, mis h is 10 mo, 1 he reader must decide for himself on tho merits of the following epitaph over ionn joiics, a eichman, who died in 1805: Owrando ddun wrth fvned heiblg Kel rwyter nminan a fyo Ller wy fy tydl a ddewy Ymbarton eanys ineru tyddy. The friends of James Stoutenburgh wrote the following over him after he died, in 1810: Alasl how wenk and feeble is the human mind When sorrows, euro, and troubles aro all comuinea To rob us of our worldly Joy; Which, children bke, wo love as tovs: What little fortitude or minds do show When borne down with grief and woe. Etc., etc,, etc., eto. The widow of John Mathews wrote over his grave, in 1811. this stanza: I leave It all to God above To do his will and show his Jove, And when ho calls we will obey. To dwell with h.m in endless day. The following, written over a babe. is in marked contrast with most of the tombstone rhymes: Ere sin could bllfrht or sorrow fade, Death came with friendly care; Tbo open'nir bud to heaven conveyed, And bid it blossom tnere. Ann James, who died in 1816, aged seventy-six, was apparently glad to die. Her shrine says: The world Is vain and full of pain, With care and trouble sore; But thev are blest who are at rest With Christ forevermore. Mary McCarr sounded a solemn warning to her parents in 1817: My parents denr, who mourn and weep, Heboid the grave wherein I sleep. Prepare for death, for you must d e And be onlomhed as well as I. Deborah Ustick said in 1816: Our life's a jnurnev full of care. No wealth from death can save, Each step we take more near we draw To our dark, silent gravo. The following, erected in the same year, is more cheerful: Why should we mourn departed friends Or shake at death's alarms? TIs but the voice that Jesus sends To call us to his arms. Here is another verse about a baby It was written a year later: As the sweet flower thnt scents the morn. But withers In the rising day, Thus lovely was this infant's dawn Thus swiftly tied its life away. Discontent, followed by triumph, characterized the following placed over Mrs. Halstead in 1819: Relentless death, wouldst thou not spare A form so lovely and so much beloved? Ahl no: thv Iron hand has grasped Her husband treasure and liet children's Joy; But still amidst this tedious night of gloom, A thought, transporting, bursts upon my mmd; Death had no sting, the grave no victory, Through grace, she triumphed in the dying hour. Blank verse is so rare that there seems to be only one other sample. It was placed over W. A. Lawrence In 1840. He died at sea: Told is thy brow, my son. and pale thy cheek. The bright expression of that eye has fled : And thou no more with thy soft voice shall oome To meet me with thy sweet "My father," New Y rk Sun.

Pretoinl to know; hut nnc rut "conk n.r" i... i: ... The first and most important point in cock-fighting wan the weight of the birds. In niost agreements for a coek- ngnt "articles for a cock-match" was the technical phrase it was stipu lated that no cock should weigh loss than three pounds six ounces, or more than four pounds eight ounces. When the cocks of each side had been weighed, the next thins was to uair them. Thin was done by matching all the cocks on either side whose weights came within one ounce of each other. The lightest pa r of cocks were always mado to tight first, and than those urailiiiilli- heavier, until the heaviest pai fought last This venerable rule ltd been in use since the dava of Kino- Charles II. Although the combs of tho birds were always cut, thev had to appear "with a fair hackle, not too near shorn, or out. norwith anv other fraud." The spurs were usually of silver, at least in mo great matches. At the time ap pointed for tho cock-fight to begin, tho "masters of the match" took their seats opposite to each other, on either side of the cock-pit, accompanied by two otll c als termed the "setters-to." Then tho two "feeders appeared, each carrv- fng a cock. After due examination, the buds were made over to tho setters to, and they hundod them to the masters of the match, who started the fuu by putting the cocks upon the mat on the Boor ot the cock-pit. lhenext Dart of s.wuiiisiucm w.o uwaa uinuitnj4 lor themselves. The "noble sport" now hon-nn in (mrnsif an.l .nnf!m. .. good birds would fight until one cock bad killed the other or thrashed him to helplessness. But not uncommonly, after a sharp round, both cocks would suspend hostilities to gain breath, and, withdrawing to a little distance, each would watch the other in tho hope of catching him in a careless or listless moment. lor a short time this rather added to the excitement of the specta tors; but human patience soon became exhausted when two cocks stood solemnly eyeing each other. Jow the limit of time for cocks to ole without fighting was fixed at the interval during which an otlicial, called "the teller of the law," could count forty. When this limit was passed, human "science was brought to the assistance of the birds, The setters-to then caught them, and carrying them to the middle of the pit, 'delivered them on the;r loss, beak to beak." If either of them had been blinded m the previous battle, their heads were to bo made to touch each other. If one cock refused to light, he was tried tea times, and he had to re fuse to fight as many times before he was considered beaten. It sometimes happened that the cock who would figlit, died from his wounds before his adversary had refused ten times, and in that case the craven bird was con- s'dered to have won the battle. The law further provided rules in case both cocks refused to hVht, as well as in othor ca's which it is hardly necessary that wo should enumerate; but thev were nearly all based on tho principle that "the teller of the law should count forty, twenty or ten, according to circumstances, between the intervals of the ligliU, It will b.) readily under stood, from this description, that a great part of a cock-fight was occupied by the setters-to squatting opposite to each oiher in the middle ot the pit and "do livering the cocks on their logs, beak to beak. Cock-fihting was fashionable in Greece at least live hundred years B. C, and it was probably a very ancient sport in China, where it is st 11 highly popular. In India, again, cock-fight ing is au institution ot very great an tiqii ty. Mr. uovie, in ins book on poultry, assumes that the Britons prac- ticed cock-fighting before the land.ngof Ui'sar, ironi the statement ot that au thor to the effect that the Britons only reared their fowls tor amusement.

Ihe Koyal Cockpit at W est- nnnster. which was the head quarters of cock-fighting, was established by Henry VIII., and even in tho present century mains have been fought in it Newmarket has been the scene of num berless cock-tights. Indeed, it may be said that for a long time cock-fighting went hand-in-hand with racing, and it used to be reported in the official racing calendar, which was then called the Sporlina Calendar. Taking up the Sporting Calendar of 1775, we read that at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, during the race meeting the gentlemen of Durham and Northumberland fnnrrht. A "nmin rf pnnlra 11 rnnaiBtinrr of t?iirty-eight battles, and ending in "a drawn main." It is said that 1,000 game-cocks have been killed in fights during one week at Newcastle. The gentlemen of the same counties fought another main, at the Durham races of the same year, when Northumberland won. after thirty-four battles had been fought. Allhough the matches were sometimes mado between individuals, it was more usual for the mains at races to bo fought between cocks belonging to the gentlemen of two adjoining counties. Ten guineas each battle, and one or two hundred on "the odd," seem to have been the usual stakes; but there was an immense amount of bet ting, and the odds were calculated to a great nicety. Hoyle gives a table of odds which is quite appalling. For in stance, he quotes one case in which the betting is 1 3,843.421-7.821.875 to 1 against a certain contingency. Mr. Doyle mentions a cock-fight in India or "a lac of rupees (10.000)." but it is probable that more money has been lost and won over cock-fighting in England than in any other country.

An Knturtalnliig Urarrlptlon of a lllit In a French lUtlway Carrixgr, In my run to Trouville they so or dered things that I tumbled int3 a com partment in w hich there wero a lot of ailing poople. who had the corners at the wimlows, and were so able to keep them open or shut, as they pleased. They did the latter, and the heat was stilling. My olfactory nerves wore as much tortured as if 1 were a prisoner in a chemist's shop. A bourgeois next me was holding other to his nose and dash ing it up his nostrils. Ho was in the door-corner of my right, with his back to the engine. The m'nute care which he tcok about his small comforts mado me long to be among the Kalmucks or Hod Indians. He first, after lie had sniffed his ethct for about ten minutes, rummaged in his dressing-case for a liannel cap, which he drew on his head aud down to his eyebrows; then ho laid on a newspaper spread on his knees some vials and lumps of sugar, after which he removed his boots and slipped his feet into list shoes. Tho lumps of sugar were to be saturated with pharmaceuti cal drops from vials and swallowed. A lady on my other side, who was neither young nor old, had a migraine or nervous headache. She dolled hit bonnet, aud, tolding a handkerchief, bound it tightly around her forehead Then, with a spray-producing appara tus, she damped her head frequently with camphorated aud alcoholized wa ter. A second lady,- who was elderly and the mother of the one beside me, hnd a swollen cheek, to which sho ap plied wadding saturated with a liquid containing cholorofonn. Her husband stuped peppermint locnges to comfort his stomnch, and asked over and over again whether Trousseau's cholera drolls wero not forgotten. Her and h s relations, io defend their ears against couranls d'air, plunged them with oil wool. A femvie J ihamhre had in charge a whinning lap-dog, which, after we started, t.he took out of a basket, into which it was stuffed again as we drew near to a halting-place. The brute was out of health. As I am not Zola, I shall not attempt to describe its symptoms. London Truth. THE GAMBLER'S VICTIM. A Clever Trlek Performed at th Expense ot Sympathising (iraenliorns.

Then his wat;h and ring and pin went, and be roseup as thoroughly clonned out as gam tier could be.
