How to forgive the man you have in­ jured has an amusing and thourougKly Irish illustration in the following: The late "Mr Charles Philips received great notice and attention. when com­ mencing hi« career at the Irish bar, from O'Connell. Later an accidental discussion arose in Parliment in which Phillips' authority as an Irishman was used in opposition to the views of O'Connell. when the latter indulged in • diatribe against Phillips which en­ tirely estranged him from the idol of the Green Isle. Months passed over without any communication" or recog­ nition being exchanged between them; but one day at the club up came the great O' to Phillips/ exclaiming Tm tired of not speaking to you, Charles. Shake hands; I forgive you, Charles.'1 Charles did not venture to say what was at the top of his tongue--that it was the first instance of an aggressor forgiving the man he has injured. The two were reconciled and as af­ fectionate as ever. The modus coneU- iandi was unique. No Englishman, no Scotchman, and only one Irishman, could have achieved a peace by so novel and skillful a coutrivance. *** girls near AdaraS, JJ. Y., determined to ugo in swimming as the boys do." They had a splendid bath in a secluded plaee, but a strolling cow took a position near their clothcs, and they sat on the opposite bank all the afternoon and called that cow hard names. They were relieved when a farmer's boy came after the oow at mflking time. •NOTICE. 50,000 lbs. of --AT THE-- JANESVILLE WOOLEN MILLS NORTH MAIN STREET.
