“No,” returned Holmes, whose eyes were beginiingto open. “1 conid have sqneeied along with that lum.”
‘Now,’ coutinned Thompson, I sold my weol yesterday, and they sentto my door and took it. 1 got forty-two rents a pqnnd for it. 1 had one hundred and seventv-five ponnds,
and by reckoning it over after 1 had icid it, 1 iouna that 1 had made just twenty-one dollars; that is 1 had ubtaiued twelve cents more on aponnd than 1 should if 1 had sold when yon did. So yon see how these ll»Me óings mnltiplv themselves.”

YVa had heard lor several evenings Laraar-oui merry mouse squeaks at one and of the lung dining-room,as though somejubilte waa in progress. Traps were set in kuij icion» corner» witbont lucceas, the tqueakingi growing itrougeraud merrier eaeb lacreeding night till at length a chair wat propped againit ibe •ide of a large crockery cupbotni, and lo! in •n empty chrta-bnx. on the top, far out of light, wa» a loft littlo nest of ptpertnd cotton, and di>po»ed between its aneets four little naked, sightless, rhmoceros-headed mouse babies.
The old one were off gnard, or likelier, laepiug from behind some breast-work The ittle folks were carefully re-corerad, and a trap, with it» omiuu'js port-kolei, act aloug-lide the ckns-boz.
Mr. and .Mrs. .Mooae ramebwmi and scenl-dd the miKhief; bnt instead of gnawing the meat in the trap went about a more vital bus -inesi.
The neat waa borne off to the other end of the cupboard, ti-'inaiasated iatc a heap of waste paper and the little four legs tucked in again. Bnt alu!

Gang aflagley'’ lor when tbe little ones were miaied from tbe chess, box by the trapper, her superior genina hinted them aut in a moment aud miiTe bnt one fell twoop of mice and paper, and scattered them to the fonr winds.
The same cord that holds the monstrou whale-mother in the neighborhood of the ship where her calf diseppeared, till she falls an easy victim to tbe name karpooners, drew mousie np and down and orer tbe crockery cnpboard so eareletily that we not nnf reqnent-ly got glimpse of a (ail. and at lut two little creatures, one with still moist pips, hung themselves in ths wire nooses of the trsp.
A lady of my acqnaiutance once had a eat and ber three kittens, more than she needed, aud gave them away to a person who lived icrois the eonntry at the distance of two mile».
by aud her brood were tied into a bukct and did not lec light again till they rsached their deitination, when they were taken out and safely ensconced beside the kitcnen fire, f •* lat mother mewed piteonily and walked - -aiJy about, whileantlle boy tumbled tha kitU'js aud pnlled at her till a's the walked back and forth.
Hut the next morning no catar kitteui were to be found, and about a wrek went by, when my friend wa» >urpri»ed one Jay by the seeming ghost of her cat tint came up to her with a glad cry, and rnbbcd abont her eagerly for a few moments, and then ran away. In a little while she retnrned and laid at her miitrus’ feet a half famiihed kitten, und in an half hoar another, aud another, when she crept cloee lo her and enrlcd herself down, purring aload.
She moat Lave traveled night and day, bearing her kittens singly, from post to post, returning each time, hardly pansing for food for herself or young, and with an instinct worthy a higher nature, never yielding till the home wu reached where no harm had ever fallen on her.
Alter that day she wu a heroine among eats, and for many yea.a enjoyed a toothless dignity in the retirement of tLt hospitable chimney corner.
Feel a'ong up the chain of inferior being, and thii aonl-tike instinct beats alike strong and trnthful; but roach tke apex, man, civil-iied man, and the fublty leemt dimmed.— Betweea tbe two grut'lights, iuitinet ind reason, stand they, so bnried in srtificialitiet, that mother instinct is welt night blotted out, and reaton hardly knows the nie of Lr wea-

•Mrt. Manneman, in the great hoaie yonder, might have laken a lesson for her frail baby from monsie with profil; but instead of covering the bare little creature well with “toft cotton,” tbrongh the long winter, she let tU little chut and arms go bare, and pinned the balance of its iuugs snugly down under the long waist, so it took the consnmption, and the poor mother looked her last on baby a few days ago; and it liu under a snow bank, like a hcpatica-bud, bnt its flower shall open
