Tabbies that for years had enjoyed the comforts of a good home and a place near the kitchen stove were ruth lessly "fired" into the cold world, and it is safe to say that in tho Immediate vicinity whero the child lived there aro not now half a dozen follncs. The murderous cat is ono of tho common species and particularly large. It has been a household pet for several years in fact, since it was a kitten.

Mr. Morloy had yot to give expression to the result of his tour, as viewed from tho side of the potato famine, the immediate Interest of tho public having been attracted just now to the flagrant outrages at Tlpporary, . Tho Rev. Mr,. McFadden, a priest, declares that Mr. JaCkson, the Financial Secretary of the Treasury, who gave so roseate an account of his trip to Ireland, never went near the really distressed parts of Gwecdoro, about which he pretends to talk so glibly, and that his misrepresentations of the state pf the. crops in Ireland are willful.

An incident which was quite ing, but also a rather pretty Ulustrationv of faith iu prayer as evinced by two little folks, 4 and 9 years old, oocurrrl In Washington recently and is thus described by the Star of that city.- In explanation it should be. stated tatsvttlM names used were those of valued frieurlt, with the exception of Tommy RoaeeU'a family. This interest was the result ot the-witnessing by the children of Tommy Buueli's performance of "Uttltt Lord Fauntleroy." The mother of. the children, entering a room where .fheyhad been very quietly playing for aome time, was addressed by, the little girt, aged 9, in this way: - . - "Mamma, we have been asking God to save ns and yon and papa, TJncle Charlie, Mrs. H , Tommy Russell, his sisters and brothers, if he has y, lb. and Mrs. Russell '" Here the boy, aged Vmtrrnptd:-' "Oh, Ethel we forgot to ask for Willie aud Kathleen and Miss Kate .. Miss Nan and Mr. H "WeU," said Ethel, "yon ask xlm." So down on his knees went the little) fellow, reverently bowed his head, and, after moving bis lips quietly for a min ute or two, rose. "Did you ask Him f" questioned his sister. "Yea," replied Clifford, his little face as earnest and . serious as possible. "Then," continued Btliel, "we would want a tram of steam can aud a conductor, so we oould fco all over the world; because we thought it God would let us live we would like to . stay on earth and see how nice and quiet it is while every one else is having a good time in Heaven." , A Taanessao Romaaea, Wilmouth Williams took an procedure to procure a hrmbaad. - The. object of her affections was one Henry. Williams, who languished in the workhouse because he was unable to pror. cure $36 necessary to liquidate the amount of his fine. Henry was cold fat the love that Wilmouth lavished upoa him, for he was smitten by another charms, - Wilmouth had one adyMtajre over her rival that enabled her to carry her point. She possessed money, while the object of Henry's attentions was devoid of monetary attractions. Wilmouth visited the workhouse and offered to furnish the amount of her lover 'a fine on the consideration that he would re linquish her rival and lead her to the altar. To this Henry consented, and affixed hia signature to a oontrao to marry her aa soon as she -got him oat of prison. Memp his Avalanche A Practleal Iluslness JudgePeterbyWhere ta your son mow?
