If he falls, lie immediately gets up again, and says, "No matter!'' Jf he is unsuccessful, he says, "Try again!" "Go a-headi" and never stops I till he succeeds. Nay, he docs not stop then.

And he docs not. do it with difficulty and wiili sighs, but cheerfully and with good courage, lie can sing "Yankee Doodle," even in his mishaps for if it will not go this way, then it will go that, lie is at home on the earth, and can turn everything to his own account. He has before lie reaches middle life, been a schoolmaster, farmor, lawyer, soldier, author, statesman—has tried every kind of profession, and had been lit home in them all and besides all this, lie has traveled over half, or over the whole of the world.

MU. CLAV'S REGARD FOR THE SEX.—Ilenrv Clny was not a "Woman's Rights" man —lie did not believe in women becoming divines, doctors, merchants, politicians or stump speakers. He liked the old-fashion-ed doctrines about woman's place and duties, and he respected them in the domcstic or the social circle. At his reception in the City Hall of New York in 1848, he said to the ladies: "In the course of my short life, I must say that t'ne largest portion of pleasure 1 have enjoyed, has been in the company of your sex. Although I have found persons in both sexes Who were bad, 1 have found more truth, purity, generosity, politeness and virtue in your sex than mine. After a day like this, I cannot stop to kiss you all, but I call down on your heads the blessing of heaven, and I "hope 1 shall meet vou all in that blessed bourne whither the righteous pass when they depart hence."

Don't triile with the affections of young ladies. They are institutions that were never established for any such purpose. If you don't contemplate marriage certitictes and the parson, French bedsteads, a $500 rent house,, and a prospective home for the old folks, just take your hat and leave.— You've no more right to go on trilling with confiding calico, than a hollyhock has to pass itself off for a rose-.

I E.1I ALE TYPE SETTMilS.

The conviction gains strength daily that tv wider field of employment should be opened to woman. And of all the various avocations now monopolized by men, few seem more fitted for a woman than that of type-setting. The labor is light, requires activity rather thnn strength, and is far better adapted to the nimble fingers of a woman than the clumsy digits of a man. Circumstances have recently led to the env plovment of girls in printing offices in va^ rious cities, and the experiment has universally been attended with excellent results. By widening woman's field of labor the condition of the sex will be improved more than by the acquisition of all the political rights and privileges which now belong to their fathers, husbands and brothers, and we shall be glad to see them taking advantage of every opportunity which offers for mastering the light occupations now filled exclusively by men. T) pe setting a business especially adapted to them, and it is a matter of surprise to us. that they have not attempted to learn it before this.

have business at the market, and must be there betimes. Their wages are two sous a morning for each subscriber roused. It seems strange that a profession like this requires any particular aptitude or capability, but it has been found that one women will wake her customers in just half the time required by another. In times gone by, when the market people lived huddled together in the immediate vicinity of the llalles, a good revet/lure would wait upon fifteen or twenty subscribers every morning, and thus earn thirty or forty sous before day-break. But now that the new Rue de llivoli has pierced the quarters, its denizens have been dispersed, and the wakeresscs find it impossible to serve more than half a dozen customers a day. Thc trade is falling into disuse.

Thc Eye- Witness is a man who lives by crime—not by that which he commits himself, but by that perpetrated by others.— The moment he hears of a murder, or any catastrophe of that sort, he immediately repairs to the scene of the affair, says lie knows all about it, picks up all the details he can find, adds to them, recounts it over a dozen times, gets a sort of notoriety as the individual "that was there when it happened," leaves his name and address at the nearest wine shop, and awaits the effect.— The examining Judge hears of this well-in-formed gentleman, and in a view to elucidate the case, has him at once sent for.— 11c comes, is sworn, and makes a totally irrelevant deposition, lie tells what somebody said that he thought a third person had imagined, and what he guessed was the motive of the quarrel. Beyond that, he can throw no light on the affair. But he has earned his two francs—the wages of every witness summoned to testify—and by his earnings in this way he lives.

The Second-hand Witness hangs about the Palace of Justice, and as gentlemen have testified come from the various au-diencc-rooms, he asks them if they mean to draw their two francs if they do not, he supplicates them for thc love of God, and for sympathy with a wife and the usual number of children, to pass over to him the paper entitling the bearer to the two francs in question. The' Second-Hand Witness makes hap-hazard money enough in this wav to live precariously and die in the hospital.

"I never see you 'fore, so help me Bob," cried Gusset, energetically. "Don't you swear!" said old Deacon! Peabody "if you do I'll kick you inlo fits —won't have no profane or vulgar lan-' guage in my house." "0, bless you, bless you, respectable old man tell him he must come with me tell him I have speak to de constable—tell him." Sobs interrupted her utterance. "It's a pesky bad business," said the deacon, chafing with unwonted ire. "Gus-, set, you are a rascal." "Take care, Deacon Peabody, take care,' said the unfortunate shop keeper. "I remarked vou was a rascal, Gusset. You have gone and married two wives, and that ere's flat burglary, ef I know anything abeout the Revised Statoots." "Two wives?" shrieked the French woman. "Half a dozen, for aught I know to the contrary," said thc deacon. "Now you clear out of my house go away to the station, and clear out into Boston I want nothing more to do with you." "But, deacon, hear rne!"

1 "1 don't want to hear you, ye serpint," cried the deacon, stopping his ears with his hands "marryiii' two wivps, and cumin' a courtin' a third. Go along! clear out!"

Even Mrs. Peabody, who was inclined to put in a word for the culprit, was silenced,—Susan turned from him in despair— he fled to the railway station, hotly pursued by the clamorous and indignant French woman.

That afternoon, as Miss Susan Peabody was walking towards the village, she was overtaken by Mr. Jonathan Doubikins dfessed in his best, and driving his fast-going horse before his Sunday-go-to-meeting chaise. He reined up and accosted her. "Hello, Suke—get in and take a ride?" "Don't keer if I do, Jonathan," replied the young lady, accepting thc proffered seat. "I say vou," said Jonathan, grinning, "that ere city feller's turned out poorty, ain't he?" "It's dreadful, if it's true," replied the young lady. "You had a narrow escape, didn ye?" pursued thc old lover. "But he warn't never of any account, no how. W hat do the old folks think of it?" •'They haint said a word since lie cleared out." "Forgot that night I Tode you home from singing-school?" asked Jonathan suddenly branching off. "No, I hain't," returned the young lady, blushing and smiling at the same time. "Remember them apples 1 gin you?" "O, yes." "Well, the}* was good, wasn't they?" "First rate, Jonathan." "Got a hull orchard full of them kind of fruit, Suke," said Jonathan, suggestively.

Susan was silent. "G'lang!" exqjaimed Jonathan, putting the braid on the black horse. "Have you any idea where we're going, Suke?" "I'm going to the village." "No, you haint—you are going along with me." "Where to?" "Providence and you don't come back till you're Mrs. Doubikins, no how you can fix it." "How you t'llk, Jonathan." "Darn the old folks," said Jonathan, putting on the

The next day, as Mr. and Mrs. Doubikins were returning home in their chaise,1 said Jonathan, confidentially: JH"May as well tell you now, Suke—for I haint any secret from you—that Gusset never saw them women afore they steppin' into your house and blowed him up. I had, though. Cost me the dollars—thunder 1 teached them what to say, and I expect they done it well! Old Gusset may be a shop-keeper, hut if he expects to go ahead of Jonathan Doubikins, he must get up a plaguier sight airlier a mornings!"

HANGING OF TIIE THREE BANDITS BY Tli E CITIZENS OF SAN LUIS OBISPO—ANOTII&il OF THE (JAW SHO'f7.

The following is from thc San Francisco Herald of the 11th ult: The steamer Goliah, Captain F. Ililliard arrived about 5 o'clock last evening, three' days from San Pedro. We are indebted t(/ Captain Ililliard and to Mr. Pollard, who canie passenger in the Goliah, for the following particulars of a wholesale execution? of criminals by the citizens of San Louis* Obispo. In our San Pedro correspondence,published ort Scrnday last, we gave the particulars of the trial of four Sonorians—thrcef men and one woman—by the people 0'f Loa Angeles,- for aggravated crimes committed rao in the lower country. They were sentenced to be hung, but as will be seen from the letter of a correspondent in another column detailing the subsequent proceedings in Los Angeles, it was determined that they should be sent back to'San Luis Obispo, forexecu-1 tion. The three men, Ramon Espinosa, Juan Ygera, and Manuel Verdcz were accordingly placed ou board the Goliah at San Pedro, and conveyed to San Luis Obispo. At the landing here there is but one' small cabin, the town of San Luis being nine or ten miles inland. Some eight or ten Americans were waiting the arrival of the Goliah at thc landing, and when the prisoners were brought on shore, they held a consultation, and it was determined to" hang them on the beach, as it was feared they would be rescued if taken up to' the town by the Mcxican population residing there, and be again let loose with their appetite for plunder and murder whetted by revenge. Preparations were therefore made for their immediate execution, before the departure of the Goliah. The five Ameri-' cans who took the matter in hand, selected a hill-side a little back from the beach.— They drove the prisoners to the spot, securely bound, in a wagon, stopped under the overhanging bough of a tree to which three ropes were fastened, and the nooses adjusted around the cluprits' necks. They were told they could have the attendance of the Padri from the Mission, if they wished it, but they all refused to see him. They made no confession, but persisted in declaring their innocence. As the three stood up, side by side, with the roj.es around their necks and their hands tied behind them, the wagon was driven from beneath them, and thev struggled in the agonies of death.— Their weight bent the bough somewhat, but not sufficiently to allow their feet to touch tho earth. Afti'i- hanging for some time, they were cut down and interred in the neighborhood. Two more of the band were also apprehended by the party who followed in pursuit of them—one of whom, finding himself hard pushed, turned upon his pursuers, fired twelve shots from two revolvers he had with him and then defended himself with the butt of his pistols, until he was finally killed. The other is still in the possession of the captors, now 011 their return to San Luis from Los Angeles.

In Spain, every one emjjloys his time, most conscientiously, in doing nothing.— Gallantry, cigarettes, the manufacture of quatrains and octaves and especially cardplaying, are found sufficient to fill up a man's existence very agreeably. A work-ing-man, who has gained a few reals, leaves work, throws his fine embroidered jacket over his shoulders, takes his guitar, and goes and dances or makes love to the rnajas of his acquaintance, until he has not a single citarlo left he then returns to his employment. An Andalusian can live splendidly for three or four sons a day.
