Dry Goods, Carpets, Ac. A BAD FIX. Mr. OoviBe hired a livery establishment to take a rids with Mr* Coville one day la t weak. It is very rarely indeed that Mr. Co- ville deals with a horse, bat then that was not nwoh matter, M anybody eau drive oiw. Mr. OorWe took the horse at the stable and drove aitmnd to the house for his wife, lie got the establishment up to tho curb by a laborious effort at the reius, but aj>jx»ared to be unable to do anythiuK beyond that. lie eat tbelre and waited for his wifu to come out. He did not aee her, nor could he deteot from the ap- pearance of the frout of the houso that she was teeing him, but. he otight to be. She knew he had gone ait» r the horse, aud might reasonably be expected every moment, so she ought to be on the watoh for him. It Hug- gsstodItself to him that the hone could be hitched, but there was nothing but ft tree to bitch to; besides Mr. Covlile had never hitohed a horse. Now while the most iiiei- perienoed person can drive a horse on a straight road, ho scarcely dares venture into any of the little offlk e« pertaining to its man- Sgejndnt* hariug a fenr of an aniuml whose nature he does not auderutand. Mr. Coville migb* have tied thin auimiU, umloubMl y, had ther« been a strap suspended from its nee It for that purpose. He had a vague idea of a hitch line, out he oould not m<e any suoh article in sight, and he did not liku to undertake a fx>r- formanoo with which he was uuacquainted in full sight of the neighbors. Their natural powers of observatiouwould be quickened by nit unusual advent with a Lorse. Ho he sat there, and said \Whou 1\ and waited for his wife to appear. And while ho sat there he tried to look as unconcerned as if it Was a (daily ooourrenoe to him, but he had the inward consciousness that he was making a decided failure of it. It was singular she did not uom«. Flve,|fen miuutai passed.

Ue would direct the animal's attention from the cause of iU fright. For this purpose he took his pocket kuife—a ven-neat looking article with four blades l aad held it up so the horse ftould see it. and tbiuk on its qnalities. To Mr. Ooville'B surprise the dreadful boast paid no aMtanCk>n to it at alL He-shook the article in its face, but it had no appeasing effect, Thf n he took out his eiitar-case with a GernvAu- sUrer band all aro n*l it.and held it up to the Animal's gaae, and even said, in a winning voiee, \See horsey 1 Pretty horsey, see! But it was not a pretty horse. On the oon- tanajqr, it was a low, depraved beast, aud It prtnoed so high,and pulled so hard thaLMrs. Coville jumi^ed out of tho enniage as a means *f self-proaervation, and struck on her back, to the detriment of her breath. At thi* critical juncture a stout fanner oatae along, and reached tne animal as the tRsin oame in sight, and to this fortvnate a rival tlM saf «ty of all parties was due, B«f Vn. Ooviile would not get in the oftr- fitye s^aiA^ a determination which rtie most fiMfonsly expressed with the tirnUustalment ofWrsturniug breath.

The answer was*'three feet,\ bnt Mr. Dixon understood it \eight fae,t\ and dived from the platform before finding out bis mistake, striking his head with terri- ble forot on the bottom of the bath, and in- flicting a wound which threatened serious re- sulta. Good surgical attendance and nursing haw brought him out of danger, however, •ad h« has nothing worse to remember bis misadventure by than an ugly scar on the •oaip ; to hide this he wears, when he goes into society, a knitted scull cap of bright fanciful pattern, not unlike an exaggerated purse.
