THE OLD BASE BALLER. From the Bur:ingto» Hawk Eye. The doctors did not think Mr. Wrightfield could last much longer, lie was failing rapidly, and they thought that in a few days he would pdss away quietlv and painlessly. He Vas able, on pleasant days, to be carried out on the sunny porch where he would sit in his arm chair and listen )o the shouts that caine from the distan/ base ball grounds, and his eves would brighten as he heard the old familiar sounds. Sometimes the boys would come down and talk to him, after the game waf over, and it would make him cheerful and happy for hours after waard.s, and he would chatter ?bout the grand old games they used to have when he was centre field in the "Wonderfuls," and the seAson he played behinu the bat for the "Fearfuls," and the year he was short-stop for lhe "Dreadfuls,"' and the season he stood at second base for the •'Awfuls." But htill he grew no better, and he babbled about the old time#, and the new rules and bad regulations and mourned over the changes and wished that he was young and strong again and could play just one more game before he went out forever.

Well, the boys heard of it, and one Saturday afcrnoon they went down and laid out the grounds as well as they could so as to bring the striker's face right in front of the invalid's chair, and told him they were going to let him play behind the bat for both nines in a little practice game. Well, sir, the old man braced right up, and he mads his wife take oil his coat, although it was enough to kill him right there, before he would let the ball go to the pitcher. Then they got started at last and the pitcher tossed him an easy one, and the man at the bat just ticked it enough to make an easy foul of it, and dropped it right into Mr. Wrightfield's hands, but the old man saw through it and got furious, and when the umpire called "out on foul man to bat," he wouldn't have a bit of it, and yelled at the pitcher as loud as he could with his feeble, quivering voice, "to sent' 'em in led hot, and put a twist on 'em." He wasn't going to play a minute if they was going to baby him, lit said, when he'd forgotten how to play base ball a dozen times before any of thein ever saw or heard of the game.

Well the upshot if it was that they had to humor him to keep him from going off in a fit of hysterics, and the nex1 bail the pitcher shot in came like a meteor, whizzed past the strikers head and when the old man took it, it broke two of hi* fingers. He just yelled with delight and the boys' eyes just stood right out out of their heads when he stood right up on his feet. Then they rushed on him and socked him in the pit of the stutnack with a brick, hit him on the head with a locust club, stepped on his toes, jummed his fingers in the the crack of a door, threw dirt in his eyes, kicked him in the shins and poured arnica all over him. And if you'll believe it, that man got up the next morning, coverrd himself in a thousand places with court plaster, and went down to the office and has been at work ever since.

THE GREAT SMITH FAMILY. From the Leisure Hour, Disguised the name may sometimes be, but it is the most common name throughout all European countries. It does sometimes affect a spelling above the common, and appears as Smyth, Smytheor de Smythe. It also in England assumes a Latin ptii.se (from ferruui,) ana mv.omes Fer. ier or Ferrars, one of the noble names of England, assot iated also with a tradegy not noble either in its character or its consequences. In Garmany we have the Schmidts in Italy the Fabri, Fabricia, or Fabbroni in Fiance the Le Febres or Lefevres, although most of the European languages adhere mort closely to the old northern name even in Latin we have volumns in our library by Johannes Smithus, and we have seen in Italy Giovanni Smitti. The Spaniard's version of John Smith is Juan Smithus the Dutchman adopts it as Hans Smidt the French soften it into Jean Smeets the Russians roughens it into joulolY Smittowiski. |ohn Smith goes into the tea trade with China, and then he becomes Jahon Shimmit.

AN ELEMENT OF CONFUSION.

Milwaukee Sentinel. A Southside mail-carrier had considerable taouble in getting hia usual summons at the doorway of a fine mansion on his route answered promptly. Sometimes he would be obliged to ring the •door-bell many times and wait a number of minutes before anyone would appear to receive the mail. The carrier expostulated with the lady of the house, and said that he could not be kept wailing so long at her door. She replied "If 1 knew just when it was you that rang the bell I would come immediately. I thought it

letter-carrier,

Well," replied the

"I will ring the bell twice

when I come, and by that you will know it's me." The lady mused a moment and then said, spftly. That wouldn't do, for I have a friend who calls, and we had arranged exactly that very signal."

ETYMOLOGY OF THE MULE.

The word mule

comes

from the Greek

and signifies "to stop," and the mule himself comes to a stop also. Like multiplied by like, produces like. Grasshoppers multiplied by grasshoppers produces famine, «nd potato-bugs multiplied by potato bugs produces a rise in yeast. But when you try to multiply mules by mules they don't multiply, hence the word "mule." You may study your arithmetic, and read through all of Train's lectures, but you cannot discover why this is so, anv more than you can why a woman cannot put on a rubber without leaning up against something. —[Boston Weekly Globe.

KISSING.

It would be a useless pitce ot industry to collect here the thousand elaborate and ingenious things wnich poets, old and young, ancient and modern, have wrought into the description of a kiss. The choice of all the sweet-scented flowers, and the mostapproved juices, whether for their gratefulness to the taste or the smell, have been from time to time defrauded ol their exquisite properties in favor of some particular class of kisses, to which the following one, we suppose, belongs: 'Tis every aromatic breeze,

Wafted from Afric's spicy trees 'Tis honey trom the osier hive, Which chemist bees, with care derive From all the newly-opened flowers A humorous friend of our own used to be particularly enthusiastic on the classic subjeat of osculation. He declared that there were few "sciences" so difficult of acquisition. "People," said he. "will kiss, yet not one in a hundred knows how to extract bliss from lovel) lips any more than he knows how to make diamouds from charcoal He used to relate his experience of a good-night's kiss imprinted on the lips of his innamorata, after having escorted her to and from a New England forfeit party, where the poor girl, being the belle of the evening, had been kissed, and—a.i he expressed himself—"slobbered o/er by all and sundry he declared that in that one chaste salute he could discriminate "nine distinct and separate flavors"—namely, onions, tobacco, peppermint, gin, lager beer, brandy, checkerberry, musk and camphor." It his account was correct, it must have been a somewhat trying evening for l.is lady-love, if she was, as described her to be, a delicate, sensitive, and amiable woman. This anecdote, though, is somewhat irrelevant.

Kissing is, as may be supposed, of frequent occurrence in Shakespeaio, and generally in a contract-sealing sense. We find the expressions, "Press my sign-manual on her ruby lips," "geal it with a kiss,'' etc. The motto on the scroll contained in Portia's leaden casket, when opened and read by the lucky Uassanio, concludes with the suggestive lines:

"Turn you where your lady is, And claim her vviih a loving kiss"-

advice which the young and ardent lover is not slow to act upon apparently:

"A gentle scroll—Fair lady, by your leave I come by note, to give and to receive."

Othello, too, kisses Desdernona before he smothers her When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither: I'll smell it on the tree." Then there is Petruchio's kiss, when he evidently meant there shoul be 110 mis take about it:

He took the bride about the neck And kissed her lips with such a clomorous smack, That, at the parting, all the church did echo. Coriolanus, too, combined in his kiss such a world of passion in its fierceness and love:

Long as c.vUc, sweet as my revenge." One more of Shakespeare's ideal kisses, and we must leave him. Mariana's exquisite song, which every one knows by Jjeart, will be a fit conclusion to our quotations fiotn thegiua.. pooi.: "Take, oh! take those lips away,

That so sweetly were forsworn, And those eyes the break of day— Lights tf^at do mislead the morn But my kisses bring again,

Bring again,

Seals of lov«, but sealed in vain— Sealed in vain!" England, in Shakespeare's time, had gone back sadly from the earlier days of reticence—as practised in olden times— when a man would as soon have thought of kissing his wife in his daughter's presence as wt would now think of performing the same grace in church. There is a curious extract in "Notes and Queries" bearing upon this point it is from Cavendish's "Life of Wolscy," and is the utterance of a Madame Cregin. 'Foreasmuch,'quoth she,'as ye be an English man, whose custom is in your country to kiss all ladies and gentlewomen, without offense, and although it be not so here in this realm (France), yet will I be so bold as to kiss you, and so shall my maids.' By means whereof I kissed my lady and all her women." But if the English stuck to the custom longer than other European nations, they owed it to them originally, for an old historian says: "The pleasant practice of kissing was utterly unpracticed and unknown in England till the fair Princess Rouix (Rower.a), the daughter of King Hengist of Friesland, pressed the beaker with her lipkens, and saluted the amorous Vortigern with a husjin" (little kiss). The practice was particularly abhorrent to, aud discouraged by, the"Puritan6, and John Bunyan anathematizes kissing

Miss Hillern, the buxom young German woman who ha6 been making so much fame at Boston as a pedestrian, has a physique that the blue-blooded, nar-row-chested ladies of the Hub may well envy and admire. She is about five feet" three inches in hight. is straight as an arrow, has a tine head, broad shoulders, a good sized waist—she don't believe in tight lacing—and her limbs are fully developed. Her leet are perfect and quite small, requiring a two-and-a-haJf dress shoe, although her walking shoes are considerably larger. Her stockings for her long walks are carefully selected, and without seams, and in putting them on great care is exercised to avaid folds and wrinkles. They are supported by elastic straps attached to suspenders over the shoulders. Hqr walking shoes are of a soft gont-skin, laced high above the ankle, and with broad and firm soles and low broad heels. The shoes are an inch longer than the foot* and allow it all possible freedom. While on the track she relies entirely upon beef tea and the raw yolks of eggs for nourishment, and seltzer and prune water to quench the thirst. Solid food she finds cannot be taken during protracted effort, Miss Hillern is something of an artist withal, and spends her leisure making off sketches.

ONE LOT OF WILD BEASTS.

HOISTING ELErHANTS, GIRAFFES AND

TO

OSTRICHES FROM STEAMER

WHARF.

New York World, .July 8.

The steamship Main, of the Bremen line, Captain Reichmann, whith arrived in port yesterday, brought an invoice of wild animals and birds from Africa for Coup and Reiche's aquariums. Paul Luhe,

of Mr Reich's employes, ac

companied the animals all the way from Upper Soudan, where the beasts were captured, to New York, and to his care as well as that of Chief Officer Heinken and Second Officer Schwoelder of the Main, is due the splendid condition which the animals and birds arrived The animals, which were all taken from the steamer yesterday afternoon, were two baby elephants, six giraffes and three leopards. There were als3 two ostriches and a large number of foreign birds canaries, cockatoos, doves, pig eons, etc. During the voyage an apartment fitted up on what is know as the between deck—the deck between the hold and upper deck, forward—was devoted to the use of the animals. Yes terday afternoon the hatch of the forward hold was removed, a pully and tackle was tastened to tne foremast, the don key engine furnishing the hoisting and lowering power. A soft bed of hay was laid on the pier where the animals wer« to be deposited. A sling of strong sail cloth, with ropes attached to each end was tastened to the end of the pulley rope. Two men descended to the animals' quarters, conciliated the babv ele phants with raw pototaes, and got on friendly terms with the giraffes by the judicious use of loaf-sugar. Cobble stones and tenpenny nail6 soothed the ostriches while the leopards were securely con fined in three iron-barred, cages. The elephants were the first attended to While the cumbrous little fellows, weigh ing about one thousand pounds apiece were gobbling their potatoes eagerly the men wililv slipped the sling underneath them, made fast, and gave the order to hoist away. Up went baby No I at the rate of three feet a second, and a more astonished quad ruped was never seen outside of a dog catcher's wagon, His trunk and tail stuck out straight, and through the former the most agonizing, woful screcch possible to imagine was emitted. Moieover, as No. shot up through the hatch way the suprise of the othei* beasts was nearly as marked as his own astonishment.

six giraffes elevated

his long neck skyward and followed the motions of the elephant as long as he remained visible above the deck. The remaining elephant trumpeted sympathy to his elevated brother. The leopards for the moment stopped their unceasing motion backwards and lorward in their cages, and the two ostriches, a la giraffe eleyated their necks and parted their long broad bills in open-mouthed wonder. As soon as the elephant came within reaching distance of the pier four men each seized a leg, and taking good care to avoid the little fellow's trtnk, placed the four feet squarely on the dock. The animal was then led off a short distance and tied. His companion was speedily landed in safety. The birds in cages were next taken to the deck then the leopards, who spit savagely and struck with their paws at the men around them. Next came the ostriches, who iroved the most troublesome creatures A square hit from an ostrich's heavy bill has about the same effect on human flesh as the forcible application of the 6harp end of a cold chisel. While one of the men grasped an ostrich by the neck and devoted his attention to keeping out jf the reach of the bill, two others fastened the sling about the bird. As it shot up into the air both legs flew about with the rapidity and force of Bogardus kickers, and as it descended people got out of the wav. The giraffes were quite tame, beautiful, and in splendid condition, the lot consisting of five male and one female. They were hoisted out upon the dock without any trouble, being lifted about eighteen feet to clear the rail. Each giraffe was laid on its side as it came down, until the sling could be remoyed, when it at once jumped upon its feet and was led away.
