rivod. a pair of bunko sharks sized him ,j up. and concluded he waa just the man ,r they were looking for. and that tbey would turn an "honest " penny orso by h| bunkoing the sucker. So No. 1 approached him and said, in the most cordial man- {, ner possible, at the same time holding out his hand: " Wb V. how do you do. Mr. Black? When did you got here?" ... The stock dealer said to tiio nice n young man: "1 guess you are mistaken.

Emperor William's Dream. J A Berlin correspondent of the London ( Daily Scire relates the following episode ( of the German Emperor's recent visit to | the hvgienic exhibition: While inspect- , ing the pavilion of the City of Carlsbad j his naajestT noticed n small china cap, , hearing the date I8G3. and decorated , with a blue silk ribbon. On inanity he , was informed that this waa, the cup ; from which he had taken the waters at j Carlsbad in 1863. preserved in memory , of his visit. Taking the cup in his , L hand, the emperor said with a smile: "Yea, I remember that time very well. It's twenty yonr* Ago. and yet it nearly , seems ns if only months bad paved ; s since than, my reoolloctions are ao viv- , id. They remind me of a small episode | which, perhaps. 1 may loll yon. One . night I dreamt I stood by the'Knr-spring , and n man banded me a cap containing ■ poison. When I awoke I laughed at j this dream, for every moiyilng at the i spring I received my cup from the hands , - of a charming girl, and that she bad no , desire to take my life I felt positive. 1 That morning, j'wcht to tho spring at . the usual hour; tot when I found a man , present this time, waiting to _ hand me f the cap, instead of the girl. tHm_was prevented from ooming by illness, 6r . . some other reason, then the memory of , '» my dream mads me feel quite uneasy and shivery for a moment 1 remained ascertain for some instants, but then I » suppressed my suspicions, saying to myself: The good Carisbaden cannot have I env thoughts of mnrder. And then I j looked once more at the kind-looking Van end et all the ' pleasant surrounds . log*, aad I emptied the cup at a draught! ! Of course it did not harm me On the - ! contrary, mv stavat Carlsbad was very J ; tonefic&U to me." £ 1 A Texas paper tells this cheerful tale «- of the experimental school of .medicine: ' . "A woman came to a prominent physito man and asked fur a remedy for her a- : husband's rheumatism. Tbe doctor gave J ber a prescription and said: -Get that ■a ■ prepared at the drug store and rob it 'I I well over your husband's beck.

The President's Joke. President Arthur is fond of playing 1 practical jokes. An incident occurred i at the White Hi>u*o a day or two ago that afforded considerable amusemeaL party of Mr. Arthur's friends were ' re o> « visit from New York. Tbe < President bad shown them through- the - C White House. The party were .oud in 1 , their praise of the improvements in the mansion. Coming through I tho east room, or general reception j Mr. Arthur halted and aaid. in ] ' the most serious manner: i "Do you see that colored man stand- | over there?" pointing to a well- , preserved specimen of the African ' race. "Well." contlnned the host, "he has ' ' most remarkable history." i "How so?" I 'Guess." said Mr. Arthur. i I "An exiled king?" said a bewitching I ; lady member of the party. I "An cx-Strecl Commissioner?" ob- ! served a practical Wall street broker. ! "Neither." said the PresidcnL "Listen: j has been sold into slavery over seven j times." "Impossible." 1 "Fact.

As with each stroke the heart pro- ! jecta something like six ounces of blood does so some seventy times every minute and 4.3110 times in an )i<>ur. tills Implies that it does the same thing 1O0,- 1 800 tiroes in twenty-four hours. SO.OOO.000 times in a -year, and more than j 2.SOO.OOO.OUO times in a life of seventy years. The mechanical force that is exerted at each stroke amounts to a pressure at thirteen pounds upon tho i entire charge of blood, that has to be pressed onward through the branching network of vessels. According to tho vessels. According to w

estimate that has been made, . gives an exertion of force that would be adoquate, in another form of application, to lift 120 tons one foot ° high every iwenty-fonr hours. Yet tho Hi piece of livm" mechanism that is called j{ upon to do this, and to do it without g, without being itself worn out by (ho effort, is a small bundle of flesh that • rarely weighs more than clcveb ounces, m It is in tho nature of the case. also, it it must bo remembered, that this little lr machine cannot be at any time „ stopped for repair. If it gets out of orit must be sot right as it runs. To * stop the licating of the heart for more rl than the briefest interval would be to bi "life into death. The narrative of what medical science has done to y, penetrate into tho secrets ol this delicale force pump so jealously guarded from the intrusions of the eye that it ■* cannot even bo looked into until H* ae- « tion has ceased.

Pubtlc Opinion. What makes and moulds public opinion a hard problem to solve. It it not always right,, sad often exerts injurious results upon private and sometimes public notion. What tbe pebiic will say is frequently of more influence in making np a of action than the right or wrong j of it It is an unseen force, and, i like IU kind, heat, electricity and steam j powerful. A!', in a greater or leaser ; degree bow in bumble submission to ' it whether right or wrong. It often ; acts as a stamblinit Mark in human pro* ' , press, and oftenet.is the lion in the path ( of duty. How, H so mysterious and powerful, it public opinion moulded? It i is constantly changing, n-t bring tbe same : to-day as yesterday, not what it will peoU1 ably lie to-morrow. Ail history and ex. porlrooc proves this. A tingle instance from the racied writings of Scripture, the i crowd who tang hosanna to the Saviour i of mankind on his triumphant entrance I .nto Jerusalem, only a day or two later was clamoring for his death. In what i way waa the great concentrated judgment of this, and all similar' mobs, down through the rolling years formed and bow I may it lie discovered ? We know that it 1 acta as a check to evil doing as weli being ' in the way of duty. It is a great paradox, and must be tbe powerful balance wheel . '■ by which all matters that appertain to mankind are kept from running wild and I society becoming chaos, j It Is well to heed public opinion and | not fly untboughtedly in its face, but not | to the extent of dodging great responsibilities because of what it may say or do. ' We frequently adopt a course or action | that seems to be in accord with popular [•; fcntiment, but if wc wait for the morrow ) , it has changed. It is no more stable in \ '. the direction U points than tbe wooden Indians, roosters and flsbea that show the direction of the wind from the top uf shed j or bam. The subject has ponded philoso- [ pben, fooled politicians, and led tbe world by tbe nose aiocc the first man, and we . doubt not but that it will still continue to act in its double capacity for good and ■ evil til) the end of time.
