3 An Awful Scene. JIMMY BMpWM. PACIFIC CHRISTIAN MESSENGER, FRIDAY, MAY 6,1881 reached, the bottom after a while, and when 1 saw they were not killed, I tried it myself; anl landed all right. Sue was sitting still, and mourning, and saying," My goodness gracious, I shall never be able to walk again My comb is broken and that boy itn't fit to live.” Mr. Travers wasn’t hurt very much and fixed himself all right with some pin« I gave him, and his j handkerchief; but his overcoat looked as if he’d stolen it from a scarec-row When he had comforted Sue a little (and I must say some people ate per fectly sickening the way they go on), lie and I collected Mr. Martin—-all except his teeth—atld helped put him together, only I got his leg on wrong side first, and then we helped him home. c. , ’ This .was-why father said that my conduct was stfth, and that his friend Martin didn’t seen) to be able to come into his house without beiqg insulted and injured by me. I never insulted Him. Jt isn’t my fault if .he can’t slide down a- hill without -coming apart. However, I’ve had my last suftertrrg ott ~ account of hun. Th? next time he domes apart where I am, I shall not wait to be punished for it, but shall start straight for ’the North Pole, and if I discover it the British government will give me morna- million dollars.

Mr. Thornbury was unconsojoti* of the gradu ally increasing audience, as he talked and meditated by turns. The entry and door way were filled with eagerly curious folk. There was a slight rustle, then a voice, aud quick footstep. A buxom and saucy girl abont twelve years of age, in a short dress, and wearing long braids of yellow bair, rushed in, saying, in a tone that was like scolding and crying at once, “ I de clare it’s too bail! Billy, pretty Billy, come !'• She held out her band, and the bird rose on his wings and alighted on her fin ger. “There! there!” she said, jooth- ingly ; “ Pretty-Billy, kiss me !” The bird put his bill to the full red lips, and gave un audible coo of delight. “ Noie, Joe Saunders,” she said, turning to the grocer’s, boy, “you see if you doq’t catch it ! My pa says there's a law against setting traps for birds in the city. Yes, poor Billy !" she said, caressing the bird again, “ they were going to cut yon up ” (giving a spiteful glance at Mr. Thorn bury), “ but they sha'n't—no, they sha’n’t.” My feelings went through as many phases as the cojors of a dying dolphin. There was a pathetic as well as a comic side to the scene. .The face of Mr. Thorn bnry was n study for a picture of vacuity, was st ht* wifa entf . I ventured to calm the girl**' wrath by admiring her pet. “ Those are very un usual colors," I said, pointing to the pur ple and scarlet tips. ’ " Oh, I did that,” said the girl, gayly. *' Papa’s carmineank on the wing feathers, and violet on the tail feathers. Aren s* ’t they pretty ? Kiss me, Billy !” “ But this extraordinary comb !" gasped Mr. Thornbury. Here the girl laughed outright, while her merry eyes shone and her fresh color cstne. “ Pretty nice, isn't it? I cut it out of red felt. See the nice smooth ridges— just like a real comb L It's stuck well, hasn't it? Fish-glue doesn't soak off. Nice Billy !” ,o, And the pretty fiend dandled the ornithological monster up and down, white he clung to Iris'perch on her finger, and now and then Hqttered his carmine-tinted wings and spread his violet tail. " Say good-by to the gentlemen,A* said the girl mischievously; and away she went. There was not pinch to be said (from a scientific point of view), and I was in baste to settle with the grocers clever boy and be gone. I feared that Mr. Thornbury would be prostrated with the shock, but it is singu lar to observe the elasticity of great minds. —F. H. U xdkbwood , in Harper's Magazine for ApriE .
