The Only Animal ilia! EHrtn't tio Into Ute Ark. A Humorous Review uf the Animal froiii Historical ami Oilier Stand Points. [Cjudrgc A< Quinhy in the Huston Globe.] The mule is the only animal that Noah didn't lake into the ark with hitii. I have Iool|cd over: the freight list carefully, and could not see a nude way-billed for any place. So clear headed a man as Noah did not dare to take one on board, as he knew be would kick a hole through her in loss than .a weck. 1 don't know a man on whoso, head you cf'?ld pour quicksilver and run less risk of ills-pilling off than on Noah's lli' was a'dread ful level hoiidyd ?uan, and before the freshet was over every1 body on earth icali/.ed the fact. The origin of the mitie is crivolnp c<l in a good deal i?fmystery. Tradi tion informs us'lhat when the flood had subsided and ihe :irk h id landed on .Mount A rural; Nosih was very much surprised in one of his fust obse'rvaiions to find a good healthy mule standing on the top of an ail joining mountain. The same tradi-' tictii informs us that the mule is the .> ily aiiiiiial that lived through the Hood outside of the ark. Tin" iiiti'.c can he considered in a ?o0d many waysj though'the-worst'! phtn from which lo consider hini is directly from behind, any where with in a radius of ten feet. I never cou !

Von may study \oiu- arithmetic and read through a I.1 of Train's lectures, but you cannot discover why this is so, any more than y<u c;in why a woman cannot put oil j a ruhI er without loaning up against r-ometiiirig. J Ihc mule lias one more leg than a milling stool, ami can stand on one and wave the other three rounds in as many different directions: He has (inly three senses?hearing seeing and smelling. He has no more sense of ta-ite than si stone jug, a id will e.it anything that contain? nutriiiumt , and lie don't care two coats whether it 1)?' the per cent, or niucly-uine. All lie ask.-? is lo pass him a'oiig his plale with whatever happens to be handy round the pantry, and he won't go away and b'ow how p >6r the steak is. He jnsl eat.-; v ha (ever is set before him. and asks no question*, .Mules arc naturally deaf, hat that supreme wisdom that teaches the lit tle hoy t" wipe his nose on his sleeve, has lilted the muk-out with a pair ol ears that c ountciacts its ileafncssi sn he" can hear as readily ?s a person when you don't want him to Then he. would answer a double purpose ? as f?nft els to pour soun I into his ea"s, and also as fans to brash away the flies with ami keep ids head cool. They are hung by hinges to the -ides of his head, and (lap backward and forward like a pair id'wet trousers round a boy's legs, In cold latitudes quite a tasty business isdone in males' t ars. '1 he cars arc cut. oil'and dried, and sohl for snow shoe?, and then the stubs are trimme! up and the mules arc sent South and sold for horses. In this way a great many fine horses were purchased for the army by the United States. Ill were it) have a large picture of innocence to hangup in my parlor, aud I did hot wish to sit for it myself, I I should gel a correct likeness of :v inide. There is innocence enough depicted in ri mule's countenance to tit .out a Siiuihiy School class. It looks as guileless as.an angle worm. A ihule never grows old or ?lies. Oi-ee brought into existence, he con tinues on forever. The original mule is now alive somewhere in tlic South. Mules are chiefly found in the South and West. They have boon more abused than Judas Iscariot. A boy who would not throw a stone at a inulc if he got a chance, would he considered by his parents as to > me i n to raise. Tlic mule is a good worker, but lie cannot, he depended on. II e is liable to .strike, and when a mule strikes human calculation fails to find out any rule by which to reckon when he will go to work again. It is useless to pound him, lor hu will 3t?n I in >re beating than a. sitting-room carpet, j He has been known to stand eleven j days mi one spot, apparently think ing of something, and then start off again ns though nothii.g had happened. Down South, when they have sur plus of small darkeys o.i the planta tion i ;:tilcy send them out into the barn yard to play, where there is a loose , mule. They always bid them good-bye wdion they start out, for they are sure, the parting will bo' final. This is the most eccouoiuical 1 style ofTunerafnow in the markets ? To fully npprcciata the mule one should listen to his voice. You never can really km. w whether you like a mule or not till you have beard him sing. I attended a mule concert at Fort Shelling. The program ma open ed with :i soprano solo, and then swung into a duet, and then prance I iiifiiilo a trio, followed up by a quar tette, and ending with a full chorus by 150 mules. I didn't hear the whole thing, for when I came lo the regi mental surgeon was standing over me,, givii'.g me powerful restoratives, ami I hoard him say that I might possibly ! get out again, though I would never be a well man again. I have baen through llie New York.StKik 15 x I change, and spent part o"a dav in a ] j boiler faclorv, and have been on one or two .Sunday School excursions for I children, but I never knew wdiatnoi.se Was till I liettt'd a lot of ui'iUy mules bray. One of the dead certainties about a mule is that he is sure-footed, especi ally with his hind feet. He nevjr misplaces them. If he advertises that his feet will be at a certain spot at a certain time, with a sample of mule shoes to which he would call your attention, you will always find them there at the appointed time. He is as reliable as the day: of judg ment, and he never cancels an en gagement. Every man n >w living I who dove a mule team during the war now draws a pension. *? 1 never owned a mule I caitic near buying one once. He was a line looking animal; his ears stood out like the side spires on an JO pi-copal Church. His tail was trimmed down so that it looded like a tar brush lean ing up against him; He was striped oil' like the American flag, and list phaCl's cherubs never looked more angelic than did that mule. He lo ik ed all innocence, though he was. in no sense. Tho ownersat in the wagon, with his chin resting on his hand sind his elbow resting on his knee. In the other hand he held a stick with a brad in the end of it. I examined the mule and asked the man si few ques tions, and out of mere form inquired if the inuli! was kiiid.ot if lie kicked ? "Kind? Kick?" said the man, and those were the last words he ever ut tered, lie reached hisstick over the front, of the wagon, and stuck the brad into that mule. Jt was awful to see si man sntilled out as quickly as lie was. It almost took away my breath he went ho suddenly. 1 never saw the thread of life snap so abrupt ly as iL did on that occasion. I!<? didn't have lime to leave a message for his family. That mule simply I ducked bis head, anil then a pair of heels flew out behind; there was a crnsli, a flying, of splinters, and that was all; and the next moment that mule and 1 stood alone, my lace cov ered with astonishment two feet deep, and his covered with a part of an old bridle. The. next day I read an ne count in I lib telegraphic news of a shower of flesli in, Kentucky. I was the only man that could,explain that phenomenon, and 1 did not dare to, lest I should he implicated in the affair u itli the otlfer mule. 1 have seen death in many forms, hut I don't recollect of ever seeing a funoral g?lten hp with less pomp and display ihaii-^ii that occasion. If I had my choice, to work in a nitro glycerine factory, or take care of a mule, J should go for the factory, as in case of aiij?xplosion, there would he more pissitoiMLy"of my fri.mds (in I iiig some lititle membership ol me, with wich to assuage their grief. A very small p;,vec of me would listen a very hig sorrow. I wid hunt around and if l lind any oilier facts that belong to the mule, I will* writj tlicih il two, an I semi thehi to you by express C.

The ahove, from a New Orleans paper, is the. simple;announcement ol one ol the sorrowfule.st it ever falls to mortal pen tn recount. Monnie M. I'rilehard; .)f New Orleans, was a hea uii fill, gqiitle, very intelligent girl. She was a cousin of Mr. Wil liam MoAlpiu, of Cincinnati, and some lime ago \ i.sited Cincinnati and the North I'm*- the first lime. .Her visit, of a few weeks in Cincinnati stretched it=clf out to many months, before she lei! finally for her South crh home. Sim naturally had many friends ami admirers. Mr. James M. Wul polc, cily editor of the New Orleans Ifirin/iiiir. had heeu devoted to her for four years, and at length, on the nineteenth of June, they wero to have been married. Before the happy day came Miss Vritchard was strick en with sudden, fatal sickness. Thursday, June 7, it hccimo plain that the lovely girl could not tarry | longer 11111011?; the living. They told I her so, and she sen' for her I belli rot lied, and asked to be married to him before she died. "Yes," said Mi\ \Vnlpolc, "if she is to die, I want licr to die as my wife.'' The solemn marriage ceremahy was performed hurriedly and .sadly, while the gentle soul even then passing into eternity. Three hours aller she was dead, and Mr. Wnlpolc, four years a lover, three hours a husband and now a widower has only her sweet remem brance left him.

A smooth face swindle? 1 Owing the barber for a shave. A happy medium?One who is always found in good "spirits." An Oriental Ruler s Cruelties. When the French finally reduced Constantino, one of the Algcriho cities, in 1848, the palace of Iladj Ahmed excited general admiration, and the women of his large harem caused unusual curiosity and com passion, from the tales spread of his cruelty to them. He sprang from a wealthy family of the place, and had been khalifa under the Hey I.) rah am el-linbbi, but exciting the jealousy of tlia't ruler, (led to Algiers. There he won the gooel-wiH of the pasha, aud in 1820 became himself liey of Con sta tit i he. His cruelties were the theme of e* cry tongue. A summer house 'used to he shown in his garden where he was accustomtal to '-it and smoke, while his harem, all attired in their finest array, passed one hv one before him. They were required to keep their eyes cast down; their arihi fol l eil across their breast in a modest at titude, t.'ne ?tiny one of these women'', as she passed through the garden, plucked an orange. The llalj Ahmad ordered her hand to he nailed up to the tree. One of his four wives was an Ital ian girl named Aicha, carried oil, when in hild; with her brother. She was a queenly young woman, and, after the French occupation, was in structed, and in time married a French officer. Her influence had been great with the Iladj Ahmed, ye! when her brother, after rising to a liigh rank in the army, discovered finally that his sister was in the har em, the Iladj Ahmed put. him to death for daring to ask*to see her. One day some of the women found a pipe, and, to divert themselves, dressed one of their number in a tur ban and robes, and set her to smoke while they waited upon her. Iladj Ahmed burst in upon this childish scene, tore his mock representative from her seat of honor, had ii ;r in ra th sewed up n? a piini-htiictit lor daring to place his pipe wi:!ii:> it, a:i 1 ordjr ed her to be put to ! >ath. From time to ti.iv, darin ? hi; role, two nien Would be seen at night, one bearing l" the height overlooking t'.i ? valley of the Uoumel a long b >x "pen at each, end, the other a wdiito saak f rom which, smothered moans escaped. 1 hilling at. three f tones, the box was placed oil the middle one, the sack slipped in, one end of the box raised, and the sack shot out down a pre cipice of r-ix: hundred feet. Some hours lattr men approached the sack on the rocky hank of the river, opsiied i it, took out a woman's corpse, and conveyed it to the grave. This monster lived many years after his overthrow, and di d au obje: t of horror. 0 George ! What a Dani3el. She was young and fair, and a leai j glistened in her eye as .-he laid her curly head on Iiis shoulder and ox I claimed ? "0 George ! I think if I iotind you did not love me I should I die." "My darling," lie ah-iwered, passing his hand gently round her dimpled chin, '?! will always love i vou. Do vein think 1 would marry 1 * j you if I di I not feel sure of it. In a j few days at the altar I shall vow to love you all my life, and I will keep my vow." A lovely kind of beatific happiness played for a moment like. ?sunshine on her lip?, and then she whispered* "O George,! 1 like to hear you talk like that; you have boon so good to me. You have given me a tiiahtorld locket, and a gold watch and ( hain, aud rings that an angel might wcaroiiUido her glove's and not bo ashamed, and ifl thought one day that you'd be sorry you'd given nr.! all these hive things und want them hick again it should break my hear..

She '< sprang from his arms lj|;y a joyous (leer, she shook back her sunny curls, and, with :i whole poem in her hazel eyes, ex el aimed : "0 George! you have taken a load from my heart, I've come to say that I can't marry you after all, because I've seen some body I like better, and J thought you'd want your presch Is back again." T-ioushls for Saturday Night. Expense of time is the most costly of all expenses. As a m ,th gnaws a garment, so doth envy consume a man. To some purpose is that man wise who is wise at another man's expense. The hen of our neighbor appears to us a goose, says the Oriental pro verb. .. The man who can he nothing but sei ions or nothing but merry is but hall'a man. People seldom improve when they have no other model than themselves to copy after. \ Our natures arc like oil, coin pounds wit.f everything, yet still we try to swim upon the top. A hesitating, tardy j or grim yield-, ing to the wishes of another, always grates upon a loving heart. The woman who is resolved to b3 rcspceted can make herself to be so even amidst an army of soldiers. Many men profess to hate another, but no man owns envy as being en mity for no cause but goodness or felicity; We do not know of how much a man is capable, if he has the will, and to what point he will rise if ho feels free. There is this of good in real evils ?they deliver us while they last from the petty despotism of all that wcro imagina ry. The old saying is expressed with depth and significance: "Ou tho pinnacle of fortune man doe3 not loug stand linn." Who shoots at the mid-day sun, though he bo sure he will never hit his mark, yet as sure is he that ho .--.hall shoot higher than he who aim*. ( at a brush.

A man down town refused to stay homo after an early supper and help his wife whitewash the back yard, and his black hair turned white in a single min nie. Ilia wife's painful awkwardness with the brush caused the sudden change. A gentleman of intelligence visited one of the public schools of Pittsburg, and complimented the scholars highly lor their recitations, which he had li-tened t<> with pleasure, remarking that he had not heard so good a re citation in twenty years, and then ho hesitatingly asked the teacher if?if it was in grnminer or arithmetic.
