Wedding.
It was in November J054, King Louis XIV, of Frunee, was conversing with his bsautiful mistress, Mme, da la Valliere. "Sra," she siiJ to him, "I am sometimes at a loss to account for your indulgence." •'My indulgence young King. ., :'I refer to the Queen of Sweden, she said. ...

'Bui, Louise, you are talking 3ionsonse." "Nonsense! Have you no: been getting cold toward me
The King became thoughtful. It had never struck him that tho ugly daughter of Gu9tavus Adolphus of S weneu, who was twenty years his senior, could throw her eyes upon him. Still it flattered him that the woman who then occupied one of '.)(« foremost thrones of .Europe :uigiit be in love with him.
Christine, the most learned woman other time, the petted child of the martyr King of Sweden, had come to France a few months before.
The Kiug had received her in state in tli3 mirror room of the palace of Versailles. Then he had told her she could live during her sojourn in France in the line old palaces of iAmtainebleau. See installed herself there with a dozen Swedish attendants and her Italian secretary, .Moimldeschi.
This Monaldeschi was a very handsome mail. He bad come to Stockholm when an infant, with his mother.
How Qaeen C'iris)iue first became acquainted with Monaldeschi has never been ascertained. But sure it i3 that, at the time in which the events we are now relatifig occured, she was desperately in love with him. But with him it was otherwise. And how could it be otherwise? She was by no mentis prepossssing. Aside from her dense blonde hair and her magnificent teeth she had no charms to boast of, Aud yet, when Monaldeschi came into her you'i Queen Christine would kiss him, he-submitting to her caresses with very ill grace. 0:o morning on the same day when Kiug LouisXIV. had the conversation with his beautiful mistress which we hatfe related above, the Q, leen sat in her immense hemmeliwit in the Velvet Hall of the Fountainebleau Palace. It was yet early. Hue heard a conversation in the adjoining room. The speakers were" her German maid, Ann Von Der Pevdt, and Monaldeschi. The latter said:—"Dear Anna, are you tone so cruel as to refuse me your hand

One of the jugglers then brought forth a ball of fine twine, and unwound about fifty yards of it in a coil iu his hands This coil he cut through wfth a knife at each end of ts diameter then, doubiiug the several lengths, he cut them through again, and repeated the operation until the twine had been divided into nieces not exceeding four inches in leugth. Taking up these disjecta, h6pufc thein into tliGlnd's tnoutiiaud bade him swallow them, which, after some effort, he, to all appearance, did.
Then asking one of the company for a sharp penknife, the man, obviously,
made an
incision in the skin
of the'lady' sstomach. From this he picked out, with the point of tne knife, the end of a thread this thread he pulled forth, at first gently, then faster, then hand over hand, until he had
coiled
down on the ground a
continuous length of about one hundred yards of wet sewiug thread. This if a deception, was a marvelous one for the operation had all the aouearance an tokens of reality, since the skin of the stomach was slightly raised round the orhce through which the thread was evi" dently drawn.
Our friend^ WGFQ f&irly PUZZL6(Jj and, to add to their perplexity, the ODerator cut off the thread close to the skin and placed a peiee of stick-ing-plaster over it, leaving it to be inferred that the supply of thread was unlimited, and could be drawn upon "to order." "Master, give me a piece of money," said he who appeared to be the principal juggler, suddenly speakin«r in Englisn to Mr. Hawthorne. ••Why?" asked the latter, taking a rupee from his pocket ami it to the man. "Good rupee!" said the man, jerking the coin into the air with a *harp flip of hs thumb-nail, and drawing the true ring imm cbemetal "Good rupee! Master sure can hold him tight in his hand, so as he can not run away?".
To be sure I can." replied the voung gentlemau. Master, try, then," said the juggler, tiking-Mr. Hawthorne's left hand and placing the rupee on the palm of it. He then requested bim to place the palm of his right hand over the coin, to close both hands tightly, aud not let the money by any means escape.
Tholoughly determined on that point, our young friend pressed his hands together till he^was red in the face. "Master quite sure got money in his hand asked the juggler. "Quite," was the reply. "Can feel him, master?" "Yes."
The juggler took the gentlemau's two hand3 between uis own, and muttered some cabalistic words then blowing upon them, aud giving them a heavy shake, he asked with a grin, ••Can feel him now, master
Starting from his chair with a bound, aud we are sorry to record it, with an oath, the young EnglishMan, with an affrightened look, unclasped his hands, and there fell on the floor beneath, not the rupeee, but a lively, wriggling little brown snake, about fifteen inches long, which made Immediately for the legs of Capt. McTurk.
Now this gentleman, who under ordinary circumstances was as brave as a lion, by no means relished, or was prepared for, an encounter with the devil, of whom he doubtless believed the approaching reptile was an incarnatlou, so hastily lps9ing both his legs high up in the air the worthy Captain lost his balance, and, together with his chair, came heavily to the ground, though fortunately, with no serious consequences beyond a 'broken back—of the chair we
mean. The worthy skipper soon picked himself up, and seeing that the snake had been captured by the lad, around whose arm it was now entwined, joined in the general laugh and seated himself agai a in another chair that was placed for him. "Master, take this rupee again," said the juggler, offering the coin to Mr. Hawthorne with, it must bo confessed, a regretful look. "By Jupiter No," said the gentleman "you have fairly earned it, besides"— "It might turn into a snake again, in your pocket, you were

Art empty flower-pot was now placed upon the floor by the juggler, who requested that his comrade might be allhwed to bring up some garden mold from the little plot of jjround beloWr. Permission, being ac-
J,!
corded, the man went, and in two minutes returned with a small quantity of fresh eartn, tied up in a corner of his chudder, which was de posited in the flower-pot and lightly pressed down. Taking from his basket a dry mangostone, and handing it round"to the company that they might examine it, and satisfy them selves that it was really what seemed to be, the juggler scoopad out a little oarth from the center of the flower-pot and placed the stone iu the cavity. He then turned the earth lightly .oVe"r It',Hand, bavin jiou'fect-'a little water 'Over the surface ihut tfae .flower-pot out of view by means of a sheet thrown over a small triangle.
And now, amid a full chorus of voices and the rat-tat-tat accompaniment of the taber, the stone germi uated presently a section of the cloth was drawn aside, and gave to view the tender shoot, characterized by the two long leaves of a blackish brown color The cloth was readjusted, and the incarnation re sumed. Not long was it, however, before the cloth wai a second time drawn aside, and it was then seen that the two first leaves had given place to several green ones, and that the plant now stood nine or ten inches high. A third time, and the foliage was much thicker, the sup ling being about thirteen to fourteen inches in height. A fourth time, ami the little miniature tree, now about eighteen iuehes in height, had ten or twelve mangoes, about the size of
walnut3,
hanging about its
branches. Finally, after, the lapse of three or four minutes'the cloth was altogether removed, and the fruit, having attained the perfection of size, though not maturity, was plucked and handed to tho spec tators, and, on being tasted, was found to be appioaching ripeness, 'sweetly acid."
This concluded the entertainment, and thejugglera, having been handsomely rewarded, made their obeisance and retired well pleased.
The Boy frem Hosttm.
One day not long ago a Detroit lawyer had his atteution called to a bright boy wanderiug up and down on Griswold street. He learned that he boy was au orphan and a strangr, having been shipped here from liostou by some one who imagined that tho "Hub" was hardly enterprising enough for such an enterprising boy. The lawyer wanted a lad in his office, and he took Thomas on trial, agreeing to pay his b^ar! aud give him a little something besides if he was a good boy. The boy said he just ached to become a lawyer, aud he was so enthusiastic to get ahead and become known to fame that he ttroke a chair aud a pane of niiis* the firdt afternoon. When the lawyer gently suggested to him to restrain his ardor Thomas promptly replied "There's nothing like making a law office git up and howl!"
It was amazing how quickly that boy picked up a kuowledge of legal business. It was his duty to slay iu the office when the lawyer went out, and he felt all the importance of his position. When big boys came around to ask for a job of carrying up coal Thomas went for them heavy, "Boy he would answer in a seV0r6~VlulCe) come to grief, but if you don't hurry right down stairs I'll get out acapius, switch you behind the bars, and have you hung before grass starts
The attorney had to go to Chicago one day,and he told Thomas that he might wash the windows aud slick up a little. Thomas went in. He had new matting put on the floor, put a painter at work and hired an old woman to wash everything Which could be washed. It was a neat job all around, and he felt as if he ought to be praised for his enterprise. The attorney began to scold, out Thomas remarked:
Aiu't we as good as those onehorse lawyers' across the road Is a law office a barn, or is it a law officii?"
Two weeks ago he was told to go down and order half a ton of coal to keep the stove going till warm weather. Some one told him that coal would be considerably higher next year, and so, on tbe ground ot economy, he ordered five tons sent up, and-most of it had been dumped on tbe walk before the attorney itcovered the situation. Thomas would probably have lasted a week or so longer than he did but for his receptiou of a lady clieut who came to see the lawyer about applying for a divorce. Tha lawyer was trying a case in court, and the boy had sole charge of the office. He received the lady in his usual urbaue manner, and when she inquired for the attorney he replied: "He is out, but ray legal services are at your disposal."
She didn't seem inclined to consult bim and he went on: "Is it a case of wife-beating or divorce
She intimated that he was an im pudent boy, and he replied: "Very well, madam: we can't take your'case at all!"
She said she'd call and see the lawyer, but Thomas answered "It won't do you any good. We can't take your case at all—not for love or money."
She returned two hours later, when the lawyer was in and Thomas was out, and it was decided that the boy would have to seek some other professioa. That evening, when so informed, he replied: "'All right. If I'm going to be a lawyer I want tiling to git up and git
It was intimated that he hadn't better "sass" any one, and lie blandly replied: '•No one is sassing you. If you want this partnership dissolved we'll part friendly. If you don't want to rush things this is no place for me."
