A S(ory ol an ruprctenlioiiN Hero. The officers of her Mijesty's Twenty fouith and EightyJburth Infantry were silling round their mess tabic in Castle town, the capital uf the Islo of Man one evening more than thirty years ago that is, all of them except one ; but then that one wag only Jones. Nobody minded Jones j even his peculiarities had begun to bean old subject fur "chair ing," and indeed, he hud pnid such small attention to their challiing that they had come to find it little pleasure, and after some necks of discomfort, Lieut. Jones had been allowed to chouse his own pleasures without much inter ference. These were not ixlruviigmt a favorite book, a long walk in all kinds of weather, and a sad when the weather was favorable. Ha would not drii k-- be said it hurt bis health ; he would not shoot-n-he said it hurt his feelings; he would not gamble he said it hurt his conscience: and he did not care to flirt. or visit the belles of tho capital he said it hurt his affections.

It was easier to shrug their shoulders and call I Jin "queer," or say "it was only Joins," or evei to quietly assert his cowardice. One evening Col. Underwood was discussing a hunting parly for the next day. Jones walked into the roein, and was immediately accosted : Something new, Lieutenant. 1 fl id lltnro ora iilontv nf litir.c jut I lm Itlutid , ry and we mean to give puss a run to-mor row.

U hat was to be done with a man s obstinate regarding conventionalities, and who bo'diy assejled his towarJice? Ihe Colonel turned away half contemp tuously, and J'Josigu J'owe'.l took J.mcs' place. ). lie morning proved to be a very bad one. with the prospects of a risinc storm. and as the party gathered in the bar racks yard, Jones s;id earnestly to his jColonel : I am afraid, sir, you will meet with a severe storm." ''I think so. Lieutenant j but we pro mised to dine at Gwyne Hill, and wc chad get H at far at any rate." So ihcy rode rather gloomily away in the rain, Jote- attended to the military duties assigned to him. and then about I noon, timlk-iid Rpn:ird.

She was now within sight, and it was evident that her seamen bad almost lost all coutrel of her. She must, ere lung, be flung by the waves upon tho j igged and frightful rucks, to.wards nliicti she driving. jo the lull of the wind, not only the booming of the minu'e gun, -r : " lue Bl,uul 01 luo crew could be heard.

"Ho you know old man, what surf, swimming is? I have dived through the surf at Nukuhcva." "(iod blcsi you sir I thought no white man could do thai same." While this conversation was going on Jones wus divesting himself of all super fluous clothin;, and cutting out the sleeves of his heavy pea-j icket with his pocket knife. This done he pasted Some lig lit strong mpe through them. The men watched him with great in terest and seeing their inquisitive looks, he said : " The thick sleeves prevent the ropo cutting my body you see." "Ay, ay, I see now what you, are do ing." ''Now men I have only on request : Give cue plenty of rope ns fast as I draw on yep. When I get on board you know how to make a cradle I sup pose?'' ''Ay, ay, sir but how aie you going to reach the water?" ''I am going to plunge down. I have dived from the umin prd of the Ajax before this. It was a higher leap." lie passed a doualc coil around his wuist, examined it thoroughly (q see that there was plenty to start with and Say inn, "Now friend", stand out of thu way and let me have a clear stait," raised his bare head one moment to wards heaven, and taking a short run leaped as from the spring-board of a plunge bath. Such an anxious crowd as followed that leap. Ureat numbers in spite of that dangerous wind. Jay fl it on their breasts und watched him. Ild struck the water ut least twenty-five feet from the cliff and disapporcd iu its dark foamy depths. When he rose to the surface he saw just before bim a gigantic wave, but he had time to brealhe and belorc it reached him dived below its centre. It broke in passionate fury upon the rocks, but Jones rose far beyond it, A mighty cheer Iroin tho men on the shore reached him, and now he began in good earnest to put Ins I'oCiljc experiences into practices. Drawing cotitumMy on the men for more rope which they paid out with deafening chisers he met wave after wave, really advancing however, more below water th in above it. suddenly the despairing men on board he aid a clear, hopeful voice: ' Help at hand. (. iplaiu. ihrow me buoy " And in another minute or two Janes was on the deck, and the cheers on th little steamer were echoed by the cheers of the crowd on land. There was not a moment to be lost; she was breaking up fast; but it took but a few moments to fasten a strong cable to the small rope, and then a second cable and the Communication was complete. 'I here is a lady here sir," said she Captain. "We must rig up a chair for her, she can never Walk that dangerous road." "lint we have not a moment to waste, or we may all be lost; is she very heavy." "A sligh', thing half a child sir." ''ISfing her here." This was no time for ceremony, with out u word, save a few sentences of di rection und enc )Ut ajenent, he took her under his loft strut, and steadying him sef by i he upper cable, walked ou the lower wiih his burden safely to the shore. Toe crew rudidly followed for in such moments of exiie nity the soul masters the b dy and all things become possible. Thire was plenty of help wailing for the seamen, and the ladv 'her lather and the Ciptain were put in the cartinge of U. addon, and driven rapidly to the hospital hall. Jones, amid tho confusion, disap ncarcd : he had picked up an oil-skin coat, and when every one turned t their deliverer he was gone. 30 one knew him ; the sailors said Ihey be lieved him to bo "one of the military gents by his rigging," but tho individ uahty ol the hero had troubled no one until the danger was over. In an hour the steamer was driven on the rocks and went to pieces aud it being by this time quite dark, every oue went home. the next day tho hunting par.ly r turned from Gwynne Hall, the stoim having .compelled them to stop all night and at the dinner that evening ll;e wreck and the hero of it wero the theme of everyone s conversation. vsucb a plucky lellow, said I'.nsigu Powell. "I wonder who he was Gwynne says he was a stranger; per haps one of that crowd staying at the Abbey;" "Perhaps," said Cipt. Mrks, "it was Jones r "Oil, Jones would be too afraid oi hi mother." Jones made a litlle satirical bow and said pleasantly, perhaps it was Powel at which Powell laughed, and said "uot it be knew it. In a week the event had been pretty well exhausted ; especially as there was to be a great dinner and ball at Jirad don, and all tbe officers had invitations C, SATURDAY, The ball had a peculiar interest; for tho young lady who had been saved from the wreck would be present and rumors of her riches and beauty had been rife for scvernl days. It was said the h tie itcaruer was her futhei's private yacht. and that he was a man of lunk and in fluence. Jones said he would not go to diuutr, either he or 5 iviHe must remain for evening drill, and that Savillo loyed a good dinner while ha cared very Utile bout it. iSaville could return in lime let him ride over about ten o'clock and see tho dancing. Sivillo rather wondered why Jones did not take his acc all the evening, and felt half in- jured at his default. lit Jones had a curiosity about tho oil 1 he bad saved. o tell the truth, he was nearer in love ith her than he had ever been null any woman, and be wished pi calm ood, to see if she was as beautiful ns his fancy had painted her during those w awful moments that be bad held bur gh above the waves. riiie was exceedingly lovely, j 1st the fresh innocent girl he had known she would be. He watched her dancing ith his brother officers, or talking to her father, or leaning on Hraddon's arm. and rvery time he saw her site ( toked fairer and sweeter. Yet he had not the courage to ask for ao introduction, ami in the busy ball room no one seemed to member that ho needed one. He ept his post against the conservatory ior quite undisturbed for some time. rcsently he saw 'Squire Uraddon with the beauty on hi arm approaching him. As they passed the squire remembered be had not been to dinner, and stopped to say a few courteous work aud intror duccd his companion. "Miss (jonyers Lieutenant Jones." ?ut no sooner did Miss (Jonyers hear leutetmnt Jones' voice than she gave j lyful cry and clapping her hands to gelher, said ; 'I have found him I J'apal papal I have found him I" - Never was there such an inlerruption to a ball. The company gathered in excited groups ; and papa knew the Lieutenant's voice, and the C iptain new it and poor Jones, uuwjlin enough had to acknowledge tho ucuJ and be made a hero of. It was wonderful, after this night, hat a change took place in Jones's quel ways. 1 1 is books and boat seemed to have lost their charm, and for his walks they were all in one di rection, and ended at Hniljon Hall. In about a month Mies Conyers went away, and then Jones began to hunt the postman, and to get pretty little litters which always seemed to take a great nl ol answering. JSefori' the end of the winter he had en invitation to t'onvers to spend a month, and furlough being grante l. he started off- in great glee for Kent. Jones never returned to the Highty- foHrth. The month's furlough was in- fi.iitely lengthened in I'uet he sold out, and entered upon a dip! imalic career under the care of Sir 'fliomag Con.- yers. Ivghteen months after the wreck, 'oliinel Underwood read aloud a des cription nt the marriage ol I nomas f, of Mdlord Haven, to Mary only child and heiress of Sir Thomas C uiycrs of Couyers Castle, Ivmt. And a para gr iph be'ow stated that the "Honora ble Thomas Jones with his bride had gone to icuna on diplomatic service ol great 1 nportance Must his luck, said Powell. Just his pluck," said I1 .nJe, yood ; 'and lor my part, when I come across oi. y o u,"si! loiiows who are a1 raid 01 limiting their mothers nnl sisters, and not ashnmed to say s 1, I shall treat him as n hero j 1st waiting (or his opportu nity.

A CHRISTIANMQCKIf.G-BIRC. Sorae lime ngo two robins mated and built a nest iu one of tho trees io a certain gentleman s yard. Ihe lierce little sparrows interfered and Ihe nest wi.3 destroyed. Tho sparrows then departed. The robins then built another nest, and in due course of time a brood of young robii5 appealed. Hinging :n ler a tree near by is a cage contain iog a mocking bi'd. Several days ng 1 the gentleman passed through the yard and noticed tbe robins Bv up against the mocking-bird's cage, and the birds made a queer, squeaking noise, creat ing the impression that they wero Glu ing. The gentleman, at leas', thouhgt so, but when be endeavored t0 cfcase the robins away from the cage Uici women folks of the house said they' were not fighting ; but, on the c intrary, the mocking-bird was feeding the robins, so tint they could have plenty for their little brood in ,the nest. The matter was then inquired into, and it was found to be just as the women folks bad re presented. The robins fly up and hang t the wires of the mocking bird's cage ; the bird inside bands out a'J the dainty fuod prepared for him, consisting of crackers, grasshoppers, pieces of hard boiled eggs aud other food. The rob ins receive it in their mouths and fly to their nc$t. When the robin comes to the cage the mocking-bird makes a very si igtilur noise and then proceed to share bis food, unmindful of what his own needs may be.
