agony, as I turned from the great, cold

open now, and with a faint struggle she
released herself, and Lord Haeonly knelt
down on the ground beside her; hut she
rose up slowly and painfully, putting her
hand to her left . '•.milder. Staggering to
my feet, 1 blurted out some unintelligible
explanation ol my blindness iuul my sor
row. Lord Haeonly slopped me with
something very ’ike an oath, as he got up,
and strove to place his arm round her, and
asking where she was hurt.
“It lias only Just grazed my shoulder,’
she said, (and for tho first time I noticed
how the shot had passed through the

at the corner of Broadway and Vewy
direct, by the Asfor Mouse; pat down the
fourth on the sidewalk in front of St.
Haul’s Church, opposite, then, with the
fifth brick in hand, take up a rapid march
from one point to the other, making the
circuit, exchanging your brirk at every
point, and say nothing to any one.”
" W'liat is the object of this?” Inquired
the man.
“No matter," I replied; “all you need
to know is that it brings you 15 cents
wages per hour. It is a hit of Inn, and to
assist me properly you must seem to lie as
deaf as a jmsf, wear a serious countenance,
answer no questions, pay no attention to
any one, but attend faithfully to the work,
and nl the md of every hour by bt. Haul's
clock - how this ticket at the Museum dour;
enter, walking solemnly through every
hall in the building, pass out, find resume
your work.”
With the remark that it was “all one to
him, so loug as he could earn Ids living,”
the man placed his bricks and began Ids
round. Half an hour afterward at least
odd people were watching his mysterious
movements, lie ha I assumed a military
k ‘(ep and bearing, and, looking us sober us
a judge, be made no response whatever to
tbe constant, inquiries as to the object of
his singular conduct. At the end of the
first hour the sidewalks in the vicinity
were packed with people, all anxious to
solve thy mystery. The man, aa directed,
then went ’into the Museum, devoting lit’
teen minutes to n soleipn survey of the
halls, a lid afterwards returning to ids
round. Tills was repeated every Lour to.
sundown, and whenever the man went
into Uut Museum a dozen or mom persons
would buy tickets and follow him, imping
to gratify'their curiosity in regard to the
purpose ol ids movements. This was con
tinued for several day:—t heeuriou - people
who followed the man into the .Museum
considerably more than paying his wages
till finally the policeman, to whom I had
imparted my object, complained that the
obstruction of the sidewalk by crowds
had become so serious that I must call in
my "brick man.” This trivial incident
excited considerable talk and amusement ;
it advertised me; and it materially ad
vanced my purpose of making a lively
corner near ilie Museum.— Jiiirnum's An

Paradoxes.
The word eYye is subject to paradoxical
construction. When you oblige a man to
do a thing which lie does not want to do,
von may disoblige him at the same time.
It has been remarked that there is a very
great difference between a church where
the gospel is dispensed, and one where it
is dispensed with. We have often heard
the story of how the captain of a canal
boat cried “ Look out ’’’ to his passenger'
when they were going under a bridge, and
bow a Frenchman hmked out accordingly
and receive*! a bump on his head : but it
has never been decided that the French
man took any incorrect or unusual signifi
cation from the words. It has never been
decided whether a house burns up or
down. The ouestion whether a man who
tails from a boat and is rescued from
drowning is pulled out or pulled in
lepends mainly whether you are sp-.-aking
