TIioNow Laid Egg.
l3o goatlo, te the now-laid egg,
For eggs are brittle thing*;
TU.CJ cannot fly until they're hatched,
And have, a pair of wings,
If once you break the tepdec shell,
The wroag you can't redrosB;
The yolk and white will all run out,
And make a dreadful mess.
#
'Tis but a little while at best.
That k?ni have power to lay,
To-morrow's ogg may addled be
That were quite fresh te-day.
Oh ! then let the touch be light
That takes them from the keg,
There is no hand whose cunning skil I
Can mend a broken ogg. .
Ah, touch it with a tender touch,
For till.the egg is boiled
Who knows but that, unwittingly,
H_may be Btnashod nnd spoiled 1
.Tbo Bummer breeze that 'gainst it bloi
Ought tobe still and hushod,
For eggs, like a youthful purity,
Arc awful when they are smashed !

A stury is told of a daughter of a
prominent person now in tho lecture
.field which is peculiarly interesting,
. ond ouggostir* of unoonscisu? wisdom.
A gentlomnB was invited to the Icctu

astonished the family . circle and the
guests by the nbrupt quostion :

contly separated from thn partner of
his lifo, w&b token so completely by
"urpriso that ho stainmerol f'o. t'i tho
truth :
"I don't know.'
?Don't know,' replied tho infant torri*
blcj.'why don't you kuow V
Finding tho ohild persisted in her
?utorrogatories despite tho mild roproof
0f hor parents, ho concluded to make a
clean breast of tho matter and have it
,nt,onco. So ho said, with a calmnoss
wh ich was tho result of inward explo
.tiros. '.'VoUj we don't live together;
wo think, as wo can't agrco, we'd bet

'Can't ngreol Then why don't you

changed looks of holy horror, followed
by the inevitable roar.
Native- Protests Agaist Railroads
in China.
Two very curious nrtiolcs liavc been
published by a Shanghai native news
paper, the Ifwei-JTao, ?orotesting against
the construotiou of railways in the
Chinese empire. The Hwr.l-Pao is ol'
opinion that tho existence of" railwa ys
in Europe is too recent to admit of a
judgment beiug formed as to their prac
tieal utility, and, moreover, that there
is not sufficient business in China to
render them profitable. Tho Cbiucse
journal goes on to say that ;(tea aud
silk arc the princip-.l objects of com
merce, and these have hitherto been
I or warded to the treaty potts by river
steamboats. A substitution of railways
for steamboats would not effjet aay ?iv
iug in point of time, aud.could not,
thoiofore, oven iroai the point ol view
taken by the foreigners themselves, bo
of any service to China. Admitting
that" a little time was gained, the
Chinese would not bebcuerucl, f ir th :
goods would n it be exported moi'O rapid
ly. Thus the railways would only lead
to nn accumulation in the ports of vast
quantities of goods which, as thoy could
nut be shipped oil' all at once, would lull
considerably in price."
The llioci J'iiu also says : '"The aeci
dei.t.s ( ti railway lines are very uumcr
bus, e.itiseil by collision*, by the c igities
or tenders taking lire, by the trains run
niiig off the lines, 01 by tho bridges
giving w iy und the trains'being pro
eipitate I into lh?J rivers b ? l.i.c. In
I otiici ca.e.^the carriages arc injured by
^^BB^QBlnnr>tci- tluy aro

ricd alou.:, and t'uo ao'.il<!'i's .iiv
numerous that ii is often iinpo-siblc to
ascertain the exact uuuib".r ul dead and
wounded. Alt the foreign journals sue
full ol details concerning thc.-o acci
dents. IJtit, -'nutting that, most of
llie.-c casualties arc preventable, and
(but ttic (rains folh w iliOt.- regular
eourso, the}' travel quicker than ?!:??
ihoroughb|*ed horse, and the people
walking on the lines would have no
time to got out of their way. From
this cause alone the number of fatal
accidents would be enormous. In all
countries whore railways exist they are
considered a very dangerous mode ol
locomotion, and, beyond those who have
very urgent business to transact, no
one thinks of using them." This latter
statement cannot as yet be acs-tptod. iu
its entirety; but, unfortunately, no have
every reason to know that, so far as
England is concerned, traveling bv rail
n?y is "a very dangerous, roods of lo
comotion."
The statuto of Stonewall Jackson,
executed bj the late Mr. I'olcy, the
well kuown English sculptor, for the
city of Charleston, S. C, is now nearly
completed nt the .Manor foundry, at
Chelsea, near London. Tho general is
represented as standing with a drawn
broad sword in his right hand. The
hand rests on tho swQrd hilt, nnd the
point of tho weapon is placed upon a
piece of rock at tho side Of tlio figure
He wears a horseman's short tunic , girt
by n broad belt, and buttoned olose on
the chest, and looso trowscrs, with rid
ing boots. Tho defect of tho work is
iu the face, which lacks vivneity, and
oven poetic suggestivonoss.
An Arknusos paper describes tho
neutral condition of a political aspirant
by saying that "ho roosts iu Washington
on tho gablo end of tho ragged odgo of
despair.
Tho great labor question of the day
is how to avoid labor.
