The following fancifiil'origin of the grape viue is thus prettily rendered by the Wine and JFruit Reporter : '"When Bacchus was a boy hejour nied through Hellas, to go to .2? axia ; and as the way was very long, he grew tired, and aat down on a stone to rest. Ab he sat there with his eyes upon theeround, he Baw a little plant growing p between his feet, and was- so mucu pleased with it that he de termined to take it with him and plant it in 2axia. He took it up and carried it away with him 7 but- as the sun was hot he was afraid it might wither before he reached JLits destina tion. He found a bird's skeleton, in to which he thrust the plant, and went en. IButin hia hand the plant sprouted -Ejpiast that it.tar ted out of the bones above and below. This gave him fresh fear of its withering, and he cast about for a remedy. He fdund,-a lioii's bone, wnion was'-thick-er than the bird's skeleton, and he stuck the skeleton with the plant in it into the bone of the lion. Ere long however the plant crew out or the lion's bone likewise. Then be found the bone of an ass, larger still than that of the lion, so he put the lion's bone, containing the bird's skeleton and the plant, into the ass' bone, and thus made his way to Naxia. When about to set the plant, he found that the roots had entwined themselves around the bird's skeleton and the lion's bone and the ass' bone, and as he could not take it-out without dam aging the roots, he planted it as it was, and it came speedily., and bore, to-his great joy, the most delicious grapes, troin wiiicn nemaue we nrst wiue and gave it to men to drink. But behold a miracle! When men drank of it, they first sanglike birds; next after drinking a little more, jthey I became vigorous and gallant like li on's; but when they drank more still, they began to behave like asses." ib tm GOTLE1C SCHEEEER'S JOICE. LITTLE There was an anecdote of Gotlieb Rcheerer, who, twenty years ago, was an active Philadelphia' politician, and Vice-President Dallas, which is here first given in print. Some .thirty years ago, Alr Dallas was counsel in a case in Philadelphia, and ' Mr. Scheerer was called up as a witness. The following questions were put by Mr. Dallas : "Mr. Scheerer, were youjn Harris burg last June?" "Last June, did 3'on say, Mt. Dal las?" "Xes, last June; don't repeat my question, but answer it." After some moments of study the answer -came. "No, Mr. Dallas, I wa9 not in Harrisburg last June!" "Were you in Harrisburg in July?" He reflected again and slowly said: "No, Mr. Dallas, I was not in Harris-1 buTjr iu'july.'' "Were you .there in August, Mr. Scheerer?'.' . .. t j . The witness again meditated and saill, "No, Mr. Dallas, I was'not there in August .w " vYrt -you h ere in. September ?u Here Mr, Scheerer reflected longer than before and replied : "No, Mr. Dallas, I was not in Harrisburg in September." Mr. Dallas became tired of his bar ren result, and raising his voice said j "Mr. Scheerer, will you telf the court at what time you were in Har risburg?" "Mr. Dallas," said Scheerer, "I never was in Harrisburg in my life." The court, the audience, and Got lieb Scheerer enjoj-ed the joke, but Mr. Dallas did not heartily-partakoof .the merriment created. A DJ2SPICAULE MULE. The negro and mule, writes a friend in Clinton, Louisiana, are inseparable companions in -the Southern cotton fields, and, like the Hiawathnn string and bow, useless each without the other. The lazy indifference and careless cruelty of the one. and won- .derful powers of endurance of severe labor, ban treatment, and neglect ot the other, complete, the compatibility of the two-races necessary for the pro duction of fourmillions of bales. A characteristic anedote may be rels.-h-ed by these who have-had experience of the two. The spectator had taken refuge from the sun's perpendicular raj's under the shade ol a spreading beech, and lay recumbent, enjoying the fitful breezes and the sombre frothiness of the country newspaper. Along the dusty road which passed by this retreat came jojrging a negro, mounted on a mule, both apparently fast asleep. As the somnolent pair approached the spot, some wicked sprite of the place gave the paper a flirt, which was no sooner seen and heard, than the mule, as mules only know how, instantly 'swapped ends,' and leaving the negro sprawling in the dirt, took hi3 departure, under full sail. The negro, half raising himself, and wiping the dust from eyes and mouth, watched (he retreat fog mule for some time in silence, but at length, unconscious of an auditor, gave expression to this philosophic soliloquy 1 "Dat's what makes me 'spise a mule!"
