' A Story of One of ltn Faceti. How we go racing tip and down, hither and yon, after romance and story ; , and, souwliow, every story needs some , Adam, "some Eve, and a sprinkling of Satan, to be good for much. We once heard a man say he always glanced M through a sensational news report to see if it had a woman's name in it before he aade tip Ids mind it was worth reading. "Countless others, less frank to own it, are guilty of the same trick., Well, if we would only stable our l'agasus,

hush our aspirations for heights, turn our backs on the roadway, and sit down in the midst of our surroundings, we might find a romance under the first chip we chanced to turn over. The e reflections ran through tho mind of the scribe to tho Bunco family, yesterday, as she sat snugly tucked m behind the cellar door; and this is what set the train in motion : Mrs. Wcatherlw and her aunt's sister, front Vermont, on a visit," calling on Betsey. They sid 44 fine day " (tlie first equinoctial drnpei were spattering on the door steps), 44 how do you like Michigan," 44 do tell," and, 44 you don't say so.' ' Alice Mabel was dul v inspected" and announced a line child, and Cltarks AugustHS came in, through the -window, after his ball, and then Mrs. Wejvtherbe told how much the minister's wife's bonnet cost, and Betsey said bin thought it was a shame, and the minister's coat sleeves shining on the

. i elbf ws .ke oil cloth; and she went plun p it' into the parlpr, and brought j ,.t out le photograph albumand right

here, while she is making a little speed , before she shows her pictures, just as , the magic lantern gentleman does,

t want to ay a word for albums. It is simply cruel the way the average society critic sits down on them just as he does; on every thing and every body that has won all the fame that he thinks healthy for them. I claim that picture ,H t albums and nutoMph albums are in- , , tensely interesting, although every representative therein be, an entire stranger to mc. Mrs. Weatherbc hitched up by the aunt's sister, who was busy drawing a six and-a-half glove from a number seven hand, and Betsey swooped down over their contiguous chairbacks to ex- ' "plain. 44 Who's that?" said Mrs. W. point- ' ing with her second finger (hor first has ' a wart on the joint) . 44 That is a cousin," said Betsey rathorsftdly; 44 that picture was taken in her bridal tour, traveling suit; you remember when they used to wear those bonnets with fronts running up like the .straw carrier to a thrashing machine, that made one's face look the shape of i a rolling-pin?" Mrs. W. saitl she did, but the aunt's

sister, who is a New England old maid, mii it was before her time. 44 Poor girl," resumed Betsey, 44 that pretty suit was her bridal dress. She and her husband were among, the killed in that terrible railroad accident, which Mrs. W. remembered, and the aunt's sifter 4 had heard tier mothor speak of it,' " What did I tell 5ou! There is a "study for a story" the very first thing. 44 Who is that fat woman with such small eyes?" 44 That is Adonijah 'a (ray husband's) mother," said the oracle, a little testily ; '"she went to the Centennial." So did Mrs. Peterkin. There is a story in that, too. "Who is that spruce-looking chap, with a tall hat in one hand and a little cane in tlw other?" "That," said Betsey, with a sentimental whine and a sorry shadow In her yes-"1 thai is an old "beau of mine when I was at II College. Ills father was very rich. He was 4captiin in fke army,' deserted into the Southern ranks, married a Creole, ami is now a sugar merchant lit Havana." And them's a romance waiting to be unwound.

It is sad to reflect that election is over, Tho papers will he monotonoea without the capitals and the italic and tho exclamation-points peculiar to campaign time, There will be no more solemn appeals therein, and naither will tho orator wax eloquent and excessively earnest in tho gas-light, pausing at intervals in behalf of applause and bursts of music from the band.

Certain points cause none, go that it is not tho whole brain that acts on tho muscular system, but only special points, Fcrrier operated on monkeys in tho prusencu of tho London Hoval Society. According as he touched various parts of tho cerebrum, tho ape would shako his list at tho public, rai.o or stretch a leg, or cut faces. It wa shown that in the monkey tho center of motion of tho tongue answered exactly to that to which tho faculty of speech pertains iu man. From all this it follows that tho surgeon may now know precisely the point of the skuTl at which to apply a trepan. Thus, not long ago a man was brought into the Hospital St. Antoincin Paris. He had received a blow on the over, his riarht arm was half iiaralyed.
