Everywhere, in all sortskof newspa pers, I had read of glorious skating Central Park skating, Schuylkill .Park, diamond ditt private ditto the grand fun men on skates, boys on skates; plended sylphides in scant skirts, steel shod, and skirring away over the ice the thethunder! The very reading rave me the ice fever, and in the deli rum cprsquent upon the sudden attack, I resolved upon taking an icercrpise my self. ' Why not? What was to hinder? J had qever'navigated that sort of craft, 'tis true. Bui then I'd been on the water and under water, all my life and on ice, too some ! Had I not killed seals, and chased white bears, for weeks to gether, on ice ? Women could skate so the papers faid So did every body else, when I inquired of them. I could skaie ! What was ihe reason I couldn't? The only things I'd ever seen a woman do that I couldn't was to hook her dress "aft, and carrying six feet breadth of crinoline, sail through a twenty-inch doorway. Yes sit I could skate : and I was bpund on an ice-cruise. ,There was nothing to prevent the ex pedition from being fitted out at once. I was lounging about the Piavy l ard, de tached from everything all acuain tances included waitincr orders. Dis- gusied with bar-roouf?, detesticg thea tres, what was I to do for amustment ? Whv. skate, of coure ! Ah. ves ! the very thing, by Jove ! Why hadn't thoiiht of it before? I'dhaye a cruise directly, or saoner if possible. No, must have the tools tirst ana started on up town to find 'em. - I brought up in front oT a big window on tbe starboard side of the Chestnut street, going towards Schuylkill, where they had morf different rigs of sliding machines than yo'u can see national flags in pibialtar. Knowing about as much f the cualifications of the' different pat terps ai.a cow doe of chronometer time, I went inside, acd asked fpr a pair of skate. ' ' ."- ' What kind do you prefer, ir!" "Oh, I have no preference. Give me the beat article you've got." "Yes, sir," and the clerk "passed for inspection a - pair-or orais-ciaa, - steei clippers, with more gilgifcs and running rigeing to 'eta than there'is to a french elloop-of-war. ' "These are he best, are ihey,!" . "Yes, -sir.- decidedly! Just get on them, sir, and you'll go everywhere and any where, like patent lightning! If you don't find it so, bring 'em bark, sir. and I'll return your money. "What the price V1 - "Fourteen dollars ! Very pheap, sir. Didn't b'eleive that, of course ; but in- rested the amount and made sail for Fairmount. - Found superb ' skating. Every body said so, only those that called it elegant j splendid ! maguifiicent ! , There was a regiment of men, a battalion of dimity, and a whole brigade of small craft, on skates "-skivering, 'scooting., and cutting all sorts , of, fancies, on the ice ;. every body laughing, chattering; whooping, skylarking.and tkirripgp all direction?, and I don'Lwonder that newspapers.and everybody else, called 'skating glorious fun. "Have your skates strapped, sir?" said an itinerant bootblack about the height of a walking-stick. "Do you understand it, bub?" ."Oh. yes, sir. I strap all, the Jadis skates for 'pp.". ; Ah ha! Do; eh? Must have a jolly time of it! Would like the birth' my self.' There you are. Go ahead boy !" And I &at down on Blackie's box. about a couple of fathoms out on the ice. .' Wbix ! like a rocket, weqt by a creat strarninrr. Ionff-leffffed chap, with a cigar flyiiig jibboom, and swinging fiis arms like a triga.ie's neaa-yaras m a hurricane, wjtht the braces all adrift. "Oh, ho ! So they can smoke on skates -eh, boy ?,' "Lord, yes, sir. Everybody smokes en the ice." "Exactly." So I fired up on a Prin cipe and shipped it for the cruise. Urchin announced skates all ataun- to, and lock' a ntty cent "tractional a ee. ... ..... "Here, boy, here's another fifty.- Just allow me to sit on your box a few minutes, till T get the run of the naviga- lion. "Yes sir you can set there till J git somebody else to strap." Sol sat there studying navigation by dead reckoning, till directly a little pet ticoat craft, in yellow trowsers, skirts to her knees, red ' belt, Russian cap, and arms akimbo,.' swooped down apd check ed up right in front of me. There she hung for a minute, quivering like, and balancing, just as fifji-hawk does pver hispre)'Tand all the time eyeing me with a jolly twinkle in her dancing black eyes. "A challenge for a race, sir ! Catch me if you can !"'.... Little Dimity lifted her left foot a tri fle, bent the right knee slightly, made a graceful curve, the bottom of her skirt just bruiihiiig.my no?e, and off she went like a flying fish zee-e-t zit ! swinging Lither and thither from side to nde, her tartin skirt swayinghither and thither, like the folds of a spanker brailed in with the ship-head to wind. So-ho! Thai's challenge, is it ? And that is the way to skate ! I can skate? Anybody can skate! But I couldn't though, whatever any body else could do. I accepted Dimity's challenge, however, and her practice on ice. So I immediately bounced from that blacking-box, lifted left foot a little bent right knee, and stuck my arms akimbo. But I don't cut a "spread ea gle." Port fopt slid due southeast, end Btarboard one nor'wtst, still I realized those spread out pietorial impossibilities on circus bills. I wonder if my boots and skates would ever become shipmates again. "Hullo ! mister, you musMn't try to skate all over both sides this ere pond at once," growled aa old. commercial looking chap, as "he checked up long enough t put in the remonstrance against my ice-monopoly. "I say. . Blister, Saltwater, couldn't yer lift yerself amidship a bit, so we can sail between yer leg?" piped youag scamp, nie leader to a string of juvenile, skaters. "Dn't try-to skate on both sides at once, my dear sir." advised a '-sensible, Christian looking young man, who cam to my assistance, and set me on an even keel once more, "When you lift one fool, sir, you must throw all your vigor and muscle inio the other ' limb. And then remember to sway your Jody so that your weight .will always . be . upon that foot which has the ice. -Tis very easy, sir just this way,"' and away went my Christian, mentor, with a long striding, graceful swing. '.' ; ' ' - Oh, yes that is very easy. . All the vigor. innhe other limb.' Yes, I cn do it, : So I made a prodigious scout, and did it ! . ' : I stuck out jiff, leg; like ' . mpsquitto when he n blood sucking.,, Put all my vigor and muscle into right limb, and wouldn't gef it out again. ' Went off on one foot, like a shot, crooking right knee a little, twice'a minute, just as little Di mity did. Saw a crinoline craft: cross ing my erase, under convoy, of a big double:banked chap,- both skating like a streak." Tried to sheer to port,' and go clear of. 'em.; Missed stays,-and went afoul of crinoline-V The toe of my port skate hooked Miss Somebody's skirt which gave 'a' broad sheer to starboard, and I rammed big convoy .butting him square en ;hjs; cut water, and drove the re of my Princi ple half way down his throat. There was an everlasting tangle, and all hands went sprawling on the ice, like a nest of Ineauga land-crabe. , i . j ; ''Look here, sir ! Wbjtdoyou mean I" yplled the-big convoy, scrambling to his feet, and mapeuvering for a broadside. : "Beg'pardon, sir, couldn't help it ?" I replied meekly, still sitting on the ice. ; "PouldnV help it ! ; Why don't you stop!" ' ' : : ' . "Didn't know how."' . 'Oh, he ! green on skates, eh ?" ; "Yes, greener'n a cabbage !" . v That mollified big ; chap ' and setting me on my pins again, ne volunteered) to educate me in cheering up. ."Turn your toes up. anfl dig the heels of your skates into the ice and he il lustrated. V "O. yes; I can do that." And 1 did, directly. Off I shot again on one leg ; steermg this time for , the shore for Pd skate enough, v Halfway in, and there slide right down in my cruse a crowd of forty or so girls and mep, and women and boys. I tried "down brakes," according to in structions and broke too much. Up'tpes agd digging my heels into the! ice. I sagged back like, and doubled amidship, as if I was going to take a seat and I did ! I wept down stern foremost, with a whang, tjiat broke the ice like a pane of window. glass shivered ly a pebble burled through it. I had an idea just thep that spch a bump as'that would have startefl the arrnor of any iron-afloat. I sold those infernal' skates just as I sat, for' four dollars, under a strong con: viction th'at'there's no fun in skaling. It's all a humbug. I cant skate I don't want to. : The Law to proilde for the Insane of Nebraska. Sect. 1.

H s farm like a great many other Con necticut farms, was full of stones, and he delighted to clear them out of . the way of ihe plow. He fcuilt up a gteai many rods of , substantial stonej wall, but he could not use up all the stone. He had cleared one field f alla but onergreai boulder, about the 'size of a large hay cock. He wanted to get nd-of that.' He would haye "blown it to flinders," as hp. hd aJT find rnnnv nhtera hat -it -a-aa withinjiwo rods of the "best room win dows.", which might po to ' fi nders the same time. So he attempted to haul it out of its bed pee day. After tiring his pwn and his neighbor's oxen, and breaking several chain?, Uriah grew wrathy, and "declared that 'the would give S5 to any one that would put that pesky rock out of his sight." "Wa'al neow, I don't pind taking the job if you'll find a spade and throw in some dinner, and a mug of cider along in the'afterpoon." This prrpositioa was made by a stran ger who had just then come up. He was a fair'specimen of working. Yan kee, and Iriah dropped the broken chain and turned square round to look him full in the face. , "Yes I'll give it and the dinner aud ci der too, but I won't pull my oxen again at that stone, no how." "Don't wint you-should. I'm to "put that stone out of sight; making all smooth about here, so you can plough right along. . That's what I'n to do ain' it." "Yes, thaWis all I want I don't care how you do it, but if you fail I don't pay anything, do you understand? Very well, thep come iaiq dinner." That done, and,a large cud of tobacco adjusted, the Yankee threw off his coat and took up the'spade. He gave a look at the stone to see the way ii would tip easiest, and then commenced digging a hole on the lower side; large and deep enough to burr the boulder quste out of siffht. ' In three hours he get out and o ok a careful measurement, and then tdug little upon one side. Then he wept to the wood pile and get a stout stick of wood, which he planted firmly with one end in the bottom of his hole and the oth er bracing against the rock. Tnea he becan undermining, and worked till he saw the dirt began to give, and founJ that the rock was resting on his brace. "Now'' says he "I ihink I will take that mug of cider." ' Uriah, who had been watching" him, ordered out the cider with a rigid good wilL He even offered to add -"doughnuts and cheese." While the ; Yankee was' wiping away the perspiration and drinking his cider, Uriah brought his oxen around and hitch ed a chain to the Toeden prop. "1 did say I wouldn t pull my oxen again and I don't mean loo, causa it enly needs a smart jerk." Jerk it was, and down went the boul der and with it a shovel full of dirt, and another and another, in quick succession, until all was smooth and level, and long before night the Yankee was ready, to. resume his journay. 1 v "There," said Uriah,is h le handn him the fivo dollars, "ihtic a iLe lH sperit five Jullars ikul 1 pt.
