A SKETCH BY J.VMKS TAYS. Every one (jierhaps) knows the story of Pre-sence-of Mind Ttmipkytts (of Oriel) who gained his pitfnnmea from hatniuei ing with an oar the frrigers of the young lady who clung to his boat, which she would otherwise have overset and drowned hitu but his is not tbo only Instance wherein that JmirxMs virtue has boen displayed to iU possessors disadvantage, txvevt, indeed, in the case of running away at once on the first hint of danger (where it is almost itnrossi-b'e to go wrong), I am inclined to doubt whether preseuoe of niiud is a virtue.

I have know a so many rasra wherein endowed with tins highly eu.0rir.ed quality havl in what the French call "supivute moments" (A ugliot "narrow shaves" done such things with sang-froid and unpremeditated good judgment as thov bave reiwnti! of, but could never atone for, all their live! I once perforruad en action of this kind myself, which proved so far froia of mind" lieing only second in point of advantage iu a railway accident to "absence of IkhI," that hardly anything can be less desirable; and as the public travel a great deal by railway, tha recital of it may interest them. I was a one. night bv the Scotch express to Edinburgh, and as might bave been expected from ons prwf'eSsiug te nunlity in questu bad taken care to make myselt pr-ticularly comfortable. Pullman and sleeping cars were unknown in those days, but I had secured the seat opposite me for my feet, and was as well fortified against the cold as a lals diuner at "the Kag," with a glass of "sixty year-old" brandy to foil.iw, within, and ulster and rugs without, could make me. I had a frieud tuo.

too suspicious rwuler, not a tad v- it was the limited mail ti ami lieotde me similarly situated, and tu the third afc licyond su urbane stranger with bis legs up, ho frxnii his discreet silence and his having secured the seats on the off side where nolsniy could disturb him, I concluded to a diplomatist. Having awakenod at Carlisle, I got out for another tetit rerre of braudy (much younger thau that I had had at the club), ami on returning to mv carriage found, to my horror, tint seat for my feet occupied otherwise, by an intruder, and a parson too of a class to whom the term "a rouf customer" would riot have botm inapplicable. Everv one ho i any one can understand my fndignatiou, Even in omnibuses, which are licensed to hold a many (icople, persons already in possesion, however few, reseut, I am told, the arrival of new cornel's; but the present outrage was one that was intolerable and (except on the ecntineut absolutely unparalleled. An Englishman's house is his castle; but this two seat in a night train are even more sacred and jwuliar to himself. I was astonished aud amaied to the last degree, but I was not speechless: "My good sir," I snid, "you have mistaken your "No, I ain't; and I mean to travel iu this un." "But it is my seat, sir." "Then I suppose sits on your legs." My friend was asleep (one's friends always are asleep when we need their but I saw a sly smile flicker upon the countenance of tha diplomatist: it was the sort of tluUculty (anotber mau's diiliculty) that aimwod him.

"You may not be aware, my man," I resumed, "that it is usual for iceutlomen on long journeys to reserve two seats for themselves. "Then they ought to take two he replied surlily; "show rue youru here's mine right enough," and he ostentatiously displayed it. It was a second-class one. I flnug down the indow an exclaimed with frofessional promptitude, "Guard, turn out" should bave said, of course, "tiuard, turn out this man;" but tbo official (who had half a crown of mine in his pocket) understood the situation at once. The obnoxious intruder was instant! hauled forth, exclaiming (falsely! that be had been inserted in the first clas for waul of room elsewhero.

I had once more put up my feet triumphant ly, and was arranging my wraps as the train moved slowly on, when 1 perceived a carpetbag iu the rack over the opposite seat. My nature is not malicious, and though still smarting from my' recent wrongs, I felt sorry that the poor man should be parted from his solitary article of baggage, and thinking there was yet time (or rather my mmieu-e presence of mint! not giving me time to think) I plucked the bag from the rack and threw it violeutlv out, as I reckoned, upon the platform; it fell, however, on the line, about ten yards beyond it. 'tiood heavens," cried "ho 11 lose it." "It is no matter," said the diplomatist in the softest and creamiest tone conceivable "it happens to be my bag." You might have knocked me down with a feather. 1 made a hundred apologies, all of which he acknowledged with great politeness. "It has my address on it, and will turn up some day, no doubt." "How could I buva been such an infernal fool!" I murmured penitently.

"Pardon me," he said, still sweetly smiling; "it is not that you are the character you have so graphically described, but because 3Tou have so much presence of mind. For my part I never do anything in a hurry, and especially if it seems innierativelv demanded of ine; I always carefully being what is vulgarly called "equal to the situation. At one time, indeed, it was otherwise. 1 used to sutler from the same ntiriiutv as yourself, but was cured of it as I am sure vou will tie, aud, as it curiously hap-; pens, in a precisely similar manner. 1 was coming bv mail one night rrom tne north of Scotlaud: in the carriage with me was but one fellowr-passenger, a young fellow whom 1 luaged to be in love, since he seemed very much occupied with his own affairs and said little.

He did not appear inclined for sltep, and gave me the idea of expectation. I'erhaps he was to meet his beloved object at his journey's end. At a small station jut bevond l'erth he got hurriedly out, as 1 undei-stood from his muttered exclamation, for a glass of whiskey; it was a bitterly cold winter's night, which seemed an excuse for it; but I wnrued him that there was not time to get it, and there was not. The carriage door hail hardly closed behind turn wiien tne train went on. "I was very sorry for the poor lad, and know ing that to be left iu so wretched a place with out one's luggage would be an additional an noyance, with treat presence of mind 1 threw out of the window everything he possessed his portmanteau, hat box and railway rug, even to his umbrella.

I can see them now, black on the snow-covered line, where he could not fail to see them from the platform. Then we thundered on for abont twenty miles, wheu the train stopped again, aud who should present himself at the window of the carriage but the young man himself I I heir vour nardon. he said, 'for lettim? the cold air in. but I see it is the wrong eomart-ment. I thought 1 had left niv luggage 'So vou I said; 'bftt I chucked it out.

I'm very sorry, but I thought we had left you behind. I did it all for the 'And you've done it pretty completely, was his dry reply. hen we hart telegrapuea to tne last station he got in again and explained matters. He was studying civil engineering, it seemed, and had bribed tne engine mm to let mm drive us tor a mile or two. As this was contrary to regulations, the man was afraid to let him joiu him at Perth, but told him to jump on at the lirst small station we came to, which he accordingly did.

It was a lesson to him not to break the company's by-laws, and to me not to be so fond as I used to be of exercising my presence of mind." After this homily, aud my own previous ex perience of what cornea of promptness and presence of mind, the reader will think that I myself mil out rous parte would at leatt never fall into a mistake of that kind again. Yet this happened to me only last week. I had taken a hurried lunch at my club, before going to Brighton, and, finding it to be rather late, had flung myself into the first hansom at the door, with an impatient "To Victoria." The man drove off, but slowly; his horse seemed tired, and after a few yards came to a full stop. -'What is the matter I exclaimed with some irritation. am the mat ter," cried a well known voice; it was a grwtt friend of mine, who bad stopped the cab, just to shake hands.

His quick eye saw something besides myself in it. "Why do you travel with two umbrellas," be inquired, "like a Japanese gentleman of rank with a couple of swords 1 hen 1 perceived that the man wno bad just got out of the hansom at the club had left bis umbrella behind him. Of course I might bare left it where it was, but, with great presence of mind, it struck Die that it would be better to intrust it to my friend (who was bound for the club) to give it to the porter, for the owner, who would thereby recover it at once, tnere-fore did so, and with the consciousness of having performed a good action, and also manifested no slight acumen on the spur of the moment, we drove on. On arriving at Victoria, I tendered the cabman eighteeen penbe. "What is this for," he inquired, with an indignation which, considering his actual fare was a shilling, did him, I thought, great credit.

"It is just fifty cents above what I owe you," I said, "you very impudent fellow." "What!" he cried, in a voice that brought quite a little crowd around us; "eighteenpeuce from the Temple!" "The Temple! I came from tha Megatherium Club, you scoundrel "Then that's not vour umbrella," he exclaimed excitedly, pointing to that article, my own property, which I held in my hand. "Pardon me," I said sarcastically, "but those are my initials." And I held up the handle for his inspection. "Then, where is the umbrella that was in the cabf" It was really rather difficult to explain my real reason for returning the artijle by mv friend was that I had doubts of the cabman's honesty, but I could not tell him that. So I had to narrate by this time to a considerable audience, including a policeman, who was looking at me with great suspicion, that I had sent the article away by a friend, for the purpose of restoring it to its owner. "Oh, that's a pretty story," cried the cabman (and I felt that it was so, and would be worth telling).

"Just look after this party, police I had never been in such a false position in my life, though, as the reader knows, I had suffered before from my great presence of mind. "You had better go back, my good friend, to the gentleman at the club, who will doubtless reward you, said I in a concilatory tone. 1 hen suddenly remembering it was this abominable cabman own fault all along. 1 added in a much more natural way, "How dare you take a second tare, before yon have done with the first) Don't you know the regulations under which you bold your license" "But I thought, sir, as you was the same fentlemau" then I knew (by his civility) that had conquered. "Thought, sir," I put in; "it wonld be much better for you if you used your eyes instead of thinking, ins mans a tool.

a nru-utitA AllVB halL ItS.UU 1 IU luui ui BREAKFAST DINNER iMCent. E00M8 fifty cssts a llit, for ircotUmsa only 76 (New Tork Tribune.) The controversy excited by tbo disclosures made by Mr: Hirdsall ot Connecticut to Tne Hartfojui Cot-fuSf concerning tho part taken by Tilden iu the defeat of General Hancock hi 130 assumes so many different phases tfcnt i hi t'f no means easy to keep track of them. Thtse disciowres, will be remembered, were first publishei auonyiUcmsly, the editor of Thk Coi rant averring only that they came from a prominent and well kuown democrat. Our contemporary the Sun immediately dennrtnred tfwra as "liee" and "unmitigated lies," nud even went so far as to speak of thnm as "mythical and intimated thus tbey were mvented by TllK Cockant. Presently, how-ever the responsibility for them was avowe by iif.

P. of Westport, who certainly answers Ths Coiuant's do-scriptiun as a prominent and well known democrat. TfcSs gentleman repeated and enlarged his original statement romwrmn Mr. Tildvu's alleged treachery to Hancock and bis effort tn the ticket, aud added thereto that the Sun largely eoutribuh'd to the same end by "lufamously deriding" Kenerat Hancock during the last weeks of the of This It was supposed would bring out unit our coittomiMii ary something in the form of proof of its original sta(omnt that the charges preferred by XI r. Birdntt were fnisrs it not being practicable" any longer to deny the fact vt the interview or" the existence of the prominent or well know democrat, tSotuewtmt to the getwral surprise, our con-teiniKirary did not do this nor evsn repeat ita inqiet'ious of the falsity of the charges.

It did take up, however, the charge of Mr. Pirdsatl that it had "infamously derided" Ueneral Hancock wirhin the time alleged, and with its iudiguant (Jcnlcl of tha same, offered a reward of for the finding in its tiles "during the last two weeks of the caul' paignof I.nsu' any "ditoriel article, hue or word justifying the charge the Sun aided to secure Uenerul Hancock's defeat by oWidmg bun, infamously or otherwise." With this the question whether Mr. Tilden did endeavor to del cat iuncuck seems to have been laid aide and the controversy uterwd upon the new phase, whether the Ana aide) in securing his d'dent by "infamously deriding" turn during tho lat two wet-ks of the cauiitigti. Tliere-upon TilK t'KAXT with great promptness brought forward the extract from the of October IS, lso, published a few days since in tho 7Vihne, in which it was sail, among other sharp things, that the hud lioen "a series of blunders." that the party has but one man ol whoisrvuuuel J. Tilden," that Ueneral Hancock )s "a good man, weighing two hundred aiM fifty pound.

Hut liitucock is not Tddeu." etc. At this pomt the controversy was exciting tho attentive intereet of the pices of he couutry, aud opinions flowed in from all sidos upon the questions: First, and chtclly, whether this article, having beeu published lit-twn dHVs before the election, came properly within the two weeks' limit; sexnd, whether our contemporary would take advuuta of the technicality in any eveut; third, whether the extract amounted to "infamous derision;" and fourth, whether it aided to secure Ireneral Hancock's deieut. rto far as we are aide to judge, there seems to be practical unanimity on the part of the democratic press, particularly in the opinion that it was "infamous derision;" that it did aid iu securing Hancock's defeat, and that the Sun would not tuke advantage of the two weeks' limit. Our contemporary having been silent on the subject for several days, we interred either that the had been paid over or that arrangements were in progress for siiiiimnjiing a jury of experts to whom all the questious in should lie refermL But on yvatfix'ay au entirely new phase was given to the controversy by the publication by our contemporary of a column or more of atlidavits from arsons residing iu Westchester and Orange counties, who claim to bave known Mr. liinlall intimately tor a long time, aud say that he is mi exceedingly untruthful person.

Several persons make oath that he was called "Porgie." One man that wheu he moved from Canterbury he owed tha depoucut "between eight and ten dollars." Another swears thut "his companions were, in many cases, low and degraded," an affidavit wiiich seems uu-necessury when it is considered that in making these disclosures tie confemed to having been on the stump for the democratic party, and in the conlideiice of its leaders. But what we fail to find in auy of the affidavit and that is what coofuses us is anything touc-biug auy of the points raise. 1 iu the original controversy. These three points first, that be was myth; second, that Tiidcn did not contribute to Hancock's defeat; and third, that the dun did not aid in the same by "infamously deriding" the general seem to have been lost sight of cr abandoned. The dispute has boeu and coutiuues to be quite a lively one, but there apiears to lie a diiliculty in holding it for any length of time to a definite point.

With great resjiect for our contemporary a judgment iu tne matter, we feel constrained to say that while the public would like very much to have the original controversy settled, it cares very little whether Mr. Birdsall was known as "Porgie," or who his "low and degraded companions" were. What the public wunts to know is "Who did defeat Hancock A BICYCLING CLEKUYXAN. Ths Ilev. George F.

Pentecost, now supplying the pulpit of tho Pearl street church in Hartford, is a devoted bicyclist, and at a re cent meeting of wheelmen in New York he made an after-dinner speech in which he had considerable to say in favor of the skeleton-v heeled vehicle. Among other things ho remarked that the bicycle is a good domestic harmouizer. "My youngest son," he said, "seven years old, is in favor of the bicycle, and he gave me no rest until I got him one, and he rides with me around the streets; my wife is in favor of it; my daughter is in favor of it; and when 1 look a little weary and tired, tliey say: 'why don't you get on your bicycle and tske" a ride So I have no trouble at home and that is one of the desideratum that every good man ought to compass, with reference to his amusement and his exercise. Then, it is profitable in other directions. Do you know, I have been thinking that the bicycle is going to make a very profitable revolution in the matter of clothes.

I always hate to take off my bicycle pants and strip niy legs of these comfortable stockings. I wish every day of my life that I could wear these Knee-breeches. They are the most comfortable clothes I ever had on, and I think they are the most sensible. And I look forward when business men who have adopted a sensible cutaway coat, because it is out of their w-ay, will adopt the more sensible trousers. It has been suggested, however, that the main reason why short clothes don't come again iu fashion is because ot the smallnessof most men's legs, but I think, if the men keep ridmg bicycles, they will got more legs by and bv, and iierhaiie if the bicvele had been in vogue in David's time he would not have said that "the Lord taketh no pleasure in the legs of a man." But not to make the leat parody upon the Scripture, I think the requisite amount of exercise which oomeg from riding a bicycle would bring an amount of physical development in the lower parts of our bodies which we very much stand in need of and so 1 think the bicycle is going to be a reformer it the matter of clothes, and in a very proper direction.

A man of bad habits can't ride a bicycle. A man, in order to be an enthusiastic rider of the bicycle, must, to a certain extent, otiserve every proper pnvsical, and every ordinary moral law that belongs to manhood, or be will soon come to grief. A drunken man can't rids a bicycle. A man who looks in that direction can't do it, because it takes nerve, and a man must be in a certain physical condition a certain condition of moral and physical ttatus before he can be a successful lover of the machine. So I sav that it has au elevating ten dency in that direction and, as I have looked over the company of men whom I have seen riding the bicycle, and compared them with many other sports, my candid opinion is that there is a large balance in favor, on general principles and 1 speak not in disparagement of a hundred other athletic sports; but there is a large balance in favor of tbis pleasure, aud of this profitable exercise, therefore this kind of sport brings Tls into connection and into fel lowship with the best class of sporting-men.

I use that term in its legitimate, and not ill its worse sense. He Drank a Tear. (The Arkansaw Traveller.) "Boys, I won't drink lessen you take what I do," said old Josh Spilit in reply to an invita tion. He was a toper of long standing and abundant capacity, and the boys looked at him in astonishment. "The idea," one of them replied, "that you should prescribe conditions is laughable.

Per haps you want to force one of your ahomnable mixtures on us. You are chief of the mixed drinkers, and I will not agree to your condi tions." "He wants to run us in on castor oil and brandy," said tha judge, who would willingly have taken the oil to get the brandy. "No, I'm square." replied Spilit. "Take my drink and I'm with you." The boys agreed and stood along the bar. Every bne turned to Spilit, and regarded him with interest.

"Mr. Bartender," said Spilit, "give me a glass of water." "Water! water!" the boys exclaimed. 'Yes, water. It's a new drink for me, I admit, and I expect it's a scarce article with all of you. Lemme tell you bow I came to take it.

Several days ago a passel of us went fishing and we took a fine chance of whisky along, an' had a heap of fun. 'Ing toward evenin' I got powerful drunk an' crawled under a tree an' went to sleep. The boys drank up all the whisky and came back to town. They thought it a good joke 'cause they'd left me there druuk an' told it around town with a mighty bluster. My son got a bold of the report and told it at home.

Well. I laid under that tree all night, an' when I woke in the mornin' thar sat my wife right thar by me. She didn't say a word when I woke up, but she sorter turned her head away. I got up an' looked at her. She stid didn't say notbin', but I could see that she was cbokin "I wish I had suthin' to 'I.
