A diffident youth was paying his ad dresses to a gay lass of the country, who bad long despaired of bringing things to a crisis. He called one day when she was alone. After settling tho merits of the weather, tbe girl said, looking slily into bis face :" I dreamed of you last night."' " Did you ? Why now !"Yes ; I dreamed' you kissed me." " Why, now ! What did you dream your mother said?" " Oh, I dreamed she wasn't at home." A: light dawned on the youth's intellect, -a singu lar sound broke the stillness* and in a few weeks they were married. . .- John Peerybingle in the Melbourne Times says:—You don't believe in born murderers, and criminals, do you ? It is too dreadful to think of, that anybody should be broughtinto the woild so heavily handicapped with wickedness that crime comes natural, but then it happens to be so. Every day you meet with men who wear good clothes too, and yet who haven't any belief in right, or any digr like to wrong. On the contrary, they pre fer wrong to right for choice, and do dirty actions for the pleasure they get out of ■coundrelism. _ hey were born so. The taint of villany is in their blood ; and they •scape the hulks, and the chain-gang by ■heergood luck. Read that English story by the last mail—" a terrible story of child-passion and its results." Some children ( at Coalport Bridge) in Shropr shire quarrelled while at play. One of them, four years old, threw a knife at. another, and killed him.'The elder Arotheiv seven years old, then set-to wort-to kill the baby murderer by "striking him ca *«ie head with such violence that the life If .1 the little sufferer is despaired; 0f,., .as tbe papers say. There's an amiable family for you. The only pity seems to be that there wasn't a bigger brother about, to kill the young gentleman seven years old; and that the entiredotnestic circle; includ ing father and mother, didn't murder.one another, without standing on-ceremony, so as to save the hangman the trouble. My friends, if you've got any sympathies, dont waste the same on criminals and uncon victed scoundrels, as long as there s any honest poverty about. . A lady from the country entered one of our grocery stores and asked the clerk if he wanted to purchase any chickens—a couple of them—at the same time throw ing a couple of live ones on the counter. The clerk replied that he did, and as the tied pair showed considerable anxiety to be released from their unpleasant fix, he asked her if they would lay there—mean ing-would they lie a few moments on the counter until he could attend to them. » Lay there P" indignantly asked the old lady; "of course not—them's roosters, they wont lay nowhere."

The Standard says an income of £1,000 a year in 1872 represents no higher social position, no greater comparative comma nd of the comforts oi* life, no greater ease of living in the same rank and style, and in the same circles, than was represented in 1862 by £80<);or in! ISSO by£6oo a year. The situation of men with fixed incomes of moderate amount is becoming daily harder and more uncomfortable; they find themselves poorer in effect than "they were, and the struggle to maintain a decent equality with Lheir compeers more severe. Women who are very often in this position findthe capital which was amply sufficient for their support whenitwasassigned them becoming wnoliy inadequate to then present needs, fhe'ciergy, whose incomes are for the most part of this kind, find their means every year more restricted, the difficulty of maintaining the station and habits of a gentleman oh the income of a first-class artizah, to which they have been so long accustomed, constantly harder to meet. Even some whose earn ings are apparently expansible find the irate of payment fixed by custom dwind ling in real value. The barrister's notes, the physician's guineas represent a less purchasing power—above all, a less ade quate income than they used to do ; and they must either work harder, save less, or abandon some of the comforts they have enjoyed in the past or expected as the reward of labour and self-denial and the solace of age.

Justin M'Carthy tells a good story of Thackeray and Hepworth Dixon, which neatly illustrates the lordly and patron* izi_g manner of Ihe latter. Thackeray having mentioned to a friend that he had recently met Dixon, was asked some ques tions about what had happened at the interview. "Well,1 replied Thackeray, with his tone and force of infinite expres sion and inimitable humour, "he was kind to me."

Baron Liebig thinks we have all been unjust to a great many characters of antiquity, but to none more than to Cain. That unhnppy personage was, he affirms, the original agriculturist, the "tiller of the ground," the man who made the fir_t great step in eivilisaiion. It is abomin able, Baron Liebig thinks, that such a charactershouldbe •' helduptothe world's infamy," while poor Abel, who was doubt less, like all shepherds, a mere Tartar nomad, " becomes the world's ideal." If Abel had killed Cain, Baron Liebig says human civilisation would have been at a standstill ever since.

The returns of the sales of the different sewing machines, during the year 1871, show the Singer machine to. be by far the most popular of all in the market, the number sold being 181,200, out of a total of 610,194 of twenty-live different patterns." It appears, too, that the Chicago Relief Committee, which undertook to furnish sewing machines to persons needing them, supplied 2,427 Singer machines against 517 of all other kinds. This preference for the Singer jmachinejis due to its intrinsic superiority, .and seems likely to be maintained against all "competition.— New York Sun. [Advt.]

To gentlemen requiring first-class tobacco and cigars, if they would only visit Mrs !Sharpe's neat little American Tobacco and Cigar Divan (next Bank New Zealand) they may purchase the same cheaper than in any other house in the city. ; No inferior goods kept in stock ; would not purchase such for the public at any price. One trial is suffi cient to guarantee a continuance of custom. Give a call.—Advt.

j Sohnapps- Important Public Notice. WOLEE'S AROMATIC &CHIE VV DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered under Trade Marks" Act, 28 Vie. No 9. The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove in disputably that the introduction of a penectly pure beverage is appreciated by the Australian public.; The medical profession being the most competent in science, and responsible in society, of all others to ; form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutary properties of an article of this kind would not give tlieir unsolicited testimonials in special commendation of Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps were it a preparation of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless they had proved its superior excellence and value in their : own practice or experience. .. I As a means of preventing the disagreeable and often dangerous effects produced upon the stomach, and bowels by a change of water, or in the use of water containing an infusion of decayed vegetable matter, i which so often produces that obstinate form of Fever ' and. Acute which so frightfully undermines the consti tUU ___"_; SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS ' will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases of Dropsy Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia,. Flatulency of Age and Infancy, and General Debility it is recommended most em phatically by the most distinguished members of the Medical Profession. ' ~ j The following reliable testimonials have been offered by the Australian Press: — j Sydney Morning Herald. "In these days when alcoholic liquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is well that one at least of the popular beverages of the period is reliable as pure —that is Wolfe's Aromatio Schiedam Schnapps. It is some thing to be assured by physicians and other of tho scientific cognoscenti that we have in this article a ; genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity and under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a henefloial stimulus to the animal functions; and, even if taken in exoess, leaves but a minimum of the in evitable evils of abuse. : ,- ... "If it is neoessary in the interests of the publlo to ■ denounce the too common praotioe of manufacturing noxious cct-Ooundß as wines and spirits it seems only , ust to point to tills .meritorious exception." -biun aw Country Journal.- : . ... :, " We have in these Schnapps a totaljibsenoe of fusil oil which, combined with the great purity til _H:in gredients whence it is extracted, accounts for the uhu- , sually hoalthy and invigorating quality .which,have already rendered this latest addition to the alooholio list so justly celebrated." , I • ••_:' Bell's Life in Sydney. - " Experience lias proved the value of Wolfe's Seine- | dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant at once in- j vigorating and harmless, and it may be used with much benefit by those requiring a pleasant and effective | remedy. The medical officers of the Sydney Infirmary i have tested its morits practically in various cases, and bear willing testimony ta its exceUence, and we, there fore, feel no difficulty in recommending to the notice of our readers the Aromatic Schnapps, not only as a pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but, what is of far more importance, as a really pleasant medicine; Important Testimonials. " Sydney Infirmary, Nov. 11,1870. -/ "Ibeg to state'that I have, with the permission of Honorary Physicians, given your Schnapps to soveral patients in cur wards. I have no hesitation in stating that I consider your Schnapps a most excellent Stimu lant u.«l Diuretic, and of ereat value in cardiac and renal affections, and 1 believe they wUI eventually super sede all other Spirits in the treatment of the abov complaints. ■ LITTON FORBES, Resident Physician." Government Analytical Laboratory, :::■.:■■ : '.. • - Melbourne, March 15,1872. I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps submitted to me for analysis. From the examination I conclude that this spirit is perfectly free from Fusil Oil, or solid matters ; is distilled from malt only, as a sample of HoUand's gin cannot be surpassed. It may therefore be recommended for use in Hospital and private practice as a good aromatic stimulant. — (Signed) William John son, Govern ment Analytical Chemist. We have appointed Messrs L. D.

I certify that I have carefully examined and analysed Wolfe's Aromatic Schnapps, and find the sample given me to be a very strong, pure spirit, free from adultera tion or any deleterious or any off ensive matter, and I believe useful in'all cases where a pure gin is indicated. I have also submitted : the sample to patients who have been accustomed to this description'of stimulant, and if has been universally liked and approved of as a strong, pure, wholesome., spirit,, and as such I .can re commend it. —Charles F.
