When Sir Charles Napier was in command of the channel squadron betore the Russian war he one day anchored with a fleat off Queenston He, with his officers, were invited during their stay to be constant guests of the Earl of B., and the castle was lively for a while with blue and gold uniforms. One night the family assembled in tho castle for tamily prayers betore retiring, as was the custom of Che household ; one of the ladies read a chapter in the bible and the earl prayed, On the special evening in question the chapter chanced to be the account of St. Paul's shipwreck, and 'lady F. wag reading it.

On asking for a bed, he was told he could not have one, as there was a ball that evening and all the beds were en- . gaged. 'At what time does the ball break up?' asked Mr. Isaacs.-- 'About three in the morning sir.'-- 'Well, then, can 1 have a bed until that time ?" 'Yes certainly ; bat, if the bed is asked for you will have to ' remove." 'Very well,' replied Mr. Isaacs ; and away he went to get between the sheets. About three . in the morning he was awakened by a loud knocking at his chamber door 'What do you want,' he asked. 'How many of you in here ?' inquir- od a voico. 'There's me, and Daniel and Mr. Isaacs, and an old Method= ist preacher,' was the reply. 'Then by Jupiter, there's plenty of you!" And the speaker passed' on leaving Mr. Isaues to enjoy his bed. claimed the admiral, who had com- pletely forgotton everything except | the fact that a great error in "sea- | manship had been: committed. | When he again realized his sur- roundings he said, 'I really beg your .| Tiordship's pardon, and 'crave thut of the ladies, but the man was a fool and it's a wonder he didn't tear the whole stern out of her.'

She should like everybody please everybody, be ready for everything, have no will or way' of her own, and be everybody's cheer- fal drudge.

She should be able to keep her husband's clothes in order, cook his dinner, light his fire and copy his sermons. She should keep up the style of a lady, on very small wages, and be always at leisure for 'good work,' and ready to receive morning calls. She should be President or Secretary of the Band of Hope, the Dorcas Society, and the Ladies' Missionary Society. She should teach infant classes, attend all the ladies' meet- ings, help all the poor, care for the sick, and do many other good things too numerous to specify, and then be pleased with overybody and every- thing, and never desire any reward beyond the satisfaction of knowing that she has done her owa duty and other people's too. was a bundred years old, said con- temptuously : Pshaw | what a fuss about nothing | Ohy if fF grande father was alive, he would now be a hundred and Atty years old I' On hearing a clergym that 'the world is full ee Mrs. Partington said she could hard ly bring her mind to believe it, so little found its way into her pocket. ------ A ----y 'How many quills does it take to make a goose ? asked a teacher of a young lady pupil.
