"Jolly dogsl I should liko to bo ono of them." "I'll takomy hot," rotnrnod Hook, "that I do; call for mo hero at ten o'clock and you'll find that I shall bo ablo to giro a tolerablo account of tho worthy gentlo man's champagno and venison," Ho saying ho marobed np tho stops, gavo an authoritatlvo rap, and was qulcklylost to tho sight of his astonished companion.

It will soon burst open, aud small roots will sook tho water: a straight and tapering atom, with beautiful, glossy, green leaves, will shoot upward, and present a very pleasing appoitranoe. C'liostuut trees may be grown in the eanio manner, bnt the leave are not so beautiful as those of the oak. The water should be changed once avusth, taking care to supply water of Utt'iame warmth; bits of charcoal added to it will prevent the water from souriug. If the little leave tarn yellow, add oue drop of ammonia Into the utensil whloh holds the water, and they will renew their luxuriance. Some Sagacious Animals. The Spoltijlranla Dog.

JVfirorA Jour nal. ( i i A Horn With a Loag Memory. I Many years ago, Mr. Abrnra Dodgo, of tho town of Ipswich, Maa., ownod a beau tiful liorso whloh was tho pet of the fam ily. Ho was admired by all who know his playfulness and good qnallflcations. In the summer it was Mr. Dodgo's habit occasionally to havo a frolic witn his horso in his bsrn-yard, then let him out alone, and ho would go to tho rivor, which was about one-third of a mile distant, wbore he would bathe, thon go to a common and roll on the grass, then with tho freedom of air start for his home, Ills stablo was renovated for him while ho was gono, and his breakfast put in his crib. If bo mot his master ho wonld show some coltish pranks, bound for tho stablo, poll out tho wooden pin that fastened tho door with his teeth, and ruth to the manger whore 110 expected to Una his food. Uno night tho liorso was stolen from tho stable Af ter tho expiration of sixteen yeitrs Mr. Dodgo was at tho tavern when a man drovo a horso up to tho door. Mr. Dodgo at onco rccognizod his horse, and ho told tho driver his reason for believing it to be his; the man told of whom ho bought tho horse, and said that ho had owned him for sovcral jonrs. Mr. Dodgo claimed his horso, and It was finally agreed that if tho horso would, on being takou to his old stablo, go through tho habit of bathing, rolling ou tho grass, and pulling tho pin from tho stablo-door as abovo doscribed, that Mr. Dodgo should have him. When tho liorso nan let out into Ins old yard ho roviowed tho promises for a momont, thon started for his old bath-tub, thon for his green towel on tho common, thon to his old stablo, pulled tho woodon pin, won for himself a good meal, and his old mas ter his favorite horse.

My littlo frlond eeomod very mnch disappointed and went away with tears in hor oyes, whllo I felt mortified and ashamed, to think I had not aomo ready ideas to help her along. Evening hod come, tho intolorablo heat of tho day had passed, and I sat thinking, or trying to think pleasantly; but this ono littlo word, "ideas?' banished it all. Tho dear littlo child seemed reproving me with tears in her svoet blue ey os, and a disap pointed look iu hor face I sat swaying back and forth in tho easy rocker, until a drowsy fooling stole over mo. whon tho wholo atmosphere soomed full of ideas- queer little figures, In quaint costumes, talking and laughing morrlly; when all at onco tuey becamo frightened at my pre sence. They seemed to know that I wished to adopt some of their number; snd not knowing but I might prove across stop-mother, they all lied in terror, and loft mo nuito disconsolato again, llut presently I hoard tho patter of little feet, and closo beside mo stood a onrious little elf, named Good Nature. He turned his little head to ono aido and looked at mo curiously, asking if I loved Good Nature; if I did, I might adopt him, as his parents tuougni no would do very nselul to me, sinco I had lost my good nature, Before I had time to reply, be gave a silvery laugh and fled. While wondering what had becomo of him, l Heard approaching footsteps. I did not oxaolly like their sound, how ever. Presently little tiguro stood be foro me, and a jerky liitlo voice aakod why I did not gho him a seat; aa he waa my own brother; tho aame name exactly. "What name?" I asked. "Ill Nature;" of courso you know your own name. I waa filled with astonishment; but be fore I had time to oxpress myself at any great length, thia unwelcome gnest had departed; and I felt almost happy when I Knew that ha was really gone. Again came tue sound or puttering feet, and many strange little voices fell on my car. One little flsuro exclaimed. "You are my own cousin, and I have como to pay yon along visit. My namo is Selfishness; I thluk you will liko me. We are said to be ery muck alike." All this in one wi'HK.aa (ifivrriit i rnmmr. to your relativos," whoroupon thoy all seemed to havo now cause for insult, and left In a body, I felt very much gratified at tneir uepatnro, and waa wondering it 1, who was so much alone in the world, really bad to many disagreeable relatives. Sweet sloop again stole ovor mo. I was forgetting tho world and my troubles, when a clamor in tho distanco brought mo back to a realization of tho same. Presently voioos closo, beside me made mo aware that I was not ontiroly rid of my unwelcome visitors. A little voice piped ont "Here I am at last. Yonr cousin, if yon pleaso. Mr name is I Can't I hear you have not forgotten me, bnt often apeak my name. Thia lady here is another cousin, her namo is Envy. Miss Envy, if vou nloaso." Many roices filled tho room, and amid great confusion these unwelcome visitors took thoir depart ure. I am alone onco more. I rosolve to banish these from my mind. Soft, gentle zephyrs play wltn the curtains at my win dow, and toy with tho locks on my brow. A calm sonsation steals over me. Littlo figures Hit beforo me; whllo sweet, low voices fall on my oar. A sweot faced lady comes near. "Excnso mo, but I onco had tho ploasuro of your acquaintance. Havo you forgotten mo? My namo is Hopo." And another spoko out, "My namo is Cour age, and I havo a niossago for vou. A dear friend of yours, whoso namoisPcaco, will bo hero to-morrow to spend tho day."
