Her husband aint been dead more’n tew yers last September, and she agoin’ to marry agin! Ah, me! ah me! how fast this world is agoin to rack and tuin! ‘he folks in it grow ehallerer and shal- lerer every day, and I should not be a mite surprised to hear that something had hap- pened enny time “TL allers did like Jerusha—allers thought she wasanice gal, and made poor Tobasco Turner a good wife, but there! the heart is a desateful thing, and like as not she warn't fo better than I allers thought she was!

You know sich things makes an orful talk with some folks, and it there's anything I ’specially hate, it’s bein a project of contrarity. ‘‘ About a year and tew months arter your uncle Micajah died, there was a rich old bach- elor cum here to Timbertown, and sot upa mannerfactory—that is to say he shod horses and oxen, and fired chains, andironed wheels and fixed things that got broke. “Well, one morning I got up airly, and went about breakfast, and got into kinder a burry and dropped the tea-kettle kiver on the barth and broke off the ring! I don't know bow many times I burnt my hands with the tormented thing arter that, and at lest I got ravin, and sez I to Cicero, sez I— “** Cicero, if you don’t kerry this kiver to the blacksmith, and get it mended, I will!’ “© Well,” sez Cicero, ‘ I guess you'll hey to go yoursel—I waut to open them hay heaps down in the medder this forenoon, and I can't bother with no tea-kittle kivers,’ and off Cice- ro went awhiatlin. “Did you eyer mind whata feller Cicero is to whistle? He’s whistled so much that his mouth looks for all the world jest like a cider tunel! I’ve to persuade him to tie a handkerchief over it nights, when he goes to pertruding, it’ll pertrude itself into some for- ren place, and leave Cicero here; and if it should, massy knows whether he could stum- much forrener’ vittles! But Cicero won t tie on the handkercher—he’s orfu! contrary now-a-days.

Yer cuzzin Mary was here, and you know what a wild, rude critter she is; well, ehe sed that if she was in my place, she'd biid up a fire in the fore room, and entertain him in there. Jest to please her I did, and I had’nt got it fairly done, when in cum Mr Blacksted with the kiver in his pocket.

Everybody has heard of the Indian gler's trick of producing a you only ot from a seed which he tak 2 trons bite bag <4 submits to your examination. The seed is sound and fit for planting. The juggler col- lects a quantity of earth, moistens it with water, aud taking a mango stone from his bag, plants it in the earth be bas prepared. Over all, be places a moderate sised round basket, upon which he spreads his cloth or a uative bianket. After an interval of dis- cordant music and incantation, the cloth and basket is removed, the muddy soed is taken from the earth, and you observe that jong, slender white fibres, forming the root, havo suddenly shot out. Again it is planted, and covered as before, and the music becomes moro discordant, and the incantation more furious. At length the charm complete, and the removal of the b: ket displays a young and tender shoot, with two opening leaves at its summit. Exclamations of sur- prise from the bystanders, and satisfaction from the band of jugglers, complete the second © act. Again allis covered up anew, and the ear-splitting music goes on Suddenly the coverings are removed, and to the amaze- ment and delight of all, the first shoot of a young mango tree, with its small light-colored loaves makes its appearance. & oe I was the inspector of adras, where I had gone on sick leave, and was gladof any amusement to relieve the monotony of a forced confinement to the house. I had a shrewd icion that, if I could ex- amine this tree of miraculous growth, it would turn out & very simple affair Acting on this idea, I suddenly seized it, and, in spite of the clamor of the jugglers, bore it off. It certain- ly had tne appearance of a real mango shuot. There was the dirty stone, wet and discolored, with the earth clinging to it. From its lower part, the white fibres of the recent root stream- ed out with a most natural appearance, whilst from the upper side sprang a perfect young ehoot, six or eight inches in heigbt, with the leaves in their earliest growth. A basin of water solved the mystery, for on washing the stone I found it old and dry, and split dewn on one side. From its cavity 1 took out a small bundle of grass roote, one end of which was tied with thread, and withdrew the Dg shoot of the mango from the top of the . Here you have only part of the apparatas of daception. It is perfected in the following manner: The mango, an evergreen, grows in almost every large denin India A con- federate first pulls a sufficient quantity of the roots of grass, which are white, long, and fi- brous, and resemble the firet growih of rots from the mango seed He ties them up, in- serts the tie end in the cleft stone, and gives them secretly with the cloth to his chief, who plants @ mango stone before your eyes, and whilst putting the cloth over the basket dex- terously withdraws it, and substitutes the stone with the roots The moist earth in which it is buried removes all appearance of deception Again the confederate is ready with his progressive slips of mango, which. at every removal of the basket, he contrives to place within reach of the operator without being seen; and the latter, in his manipula- tions whist covering up the basket with the cloth, slips them into the upper part of the slit in the mango stone. The same process may be continued so as to give you the fruit growing in its various stages, but this of course must depend on the trick being per- formed in the fruit season. I was twenty- three years in India, and never met with any- body who could explain the modus operands of this trick, though almost all—not all'—felt satisfied it wasa trisk.—Chambers’s Journal. See Tus Dovste Deata.—A certain queen lay dead on her bed of state in a room hung with black. At night the room was lighted with wax-tapers, and a captain with forty-nine men was stationed on guard in an ante cham - ber. Toward midnigut the captain hearing a coach-and-six draw up to the castle, went down to meet it, when he was met by a lady of noble appearance, clad in mourning, who asked his permission to remain a short time by the dead body. He objected, that it was not in his power to grant her request; but she called herself by a familiar name, and argued that, as the late queen's gouvernante, she had a right to see her before she was kuried. He wavered for some time; but she became so urgent that hecould excuse bimself no longer. He therefore led her into the room, and having closed the door upon her. walked up and down utside. After a while he stop- ped, listened, and deeped through the key- hole, when, lo! he beheld the dead queen sit- ting upright and whispering to the iady, with her eyes closed, and without any sign of life beyond a slight movement of the lips He ordered the solders to peep, one after the other and allof them saw the same thing When he himself returned to the key-hole the dead queen was slowly resuming her former position on the state bed. Soon afterward the Iadycame out of the room and was conducted down stairs by the captain, who felt, while he Ied her to the carriage, that her hand was as cold as ice. The coach went off as fast as it had come, and the captain perceived that the horses breathed fire in thedistance. On the following morning news arrived that the gouvernante, who lived at a country house several miles off, had died at the very hour at which she had sat by the dead body.—German Legend.
