, . A BOY'S TIUALS. The Springfield Republican has a capital article on this subject. "Here are some extracts: HIS REGULATIONS WITH THE " OLD MAN," , We suppose that the first severe trial that a boy has ' to undergo is to submit his will to the old man whom he is. taught to consider his father. To be restrained in doors at night, to be forbidden to go in swimming five times a day, or to be hindered from pinching the rest of the chilren just for fun, is an interference with natural inalienable rights, every way injurious to the feel'mos. And then, when upon some overwhelming temptation, the boy asserts his independence of parental controll, and receives a "tanning" with a switch from a quince-bush, either upon his back or his bare feet, it becomes really a very serious thing. We never could see that the smart of an operation like this was at all assuaged by an affectionate assurance that it was bestowed out of pure love. SITTING 'WITH THE GIRLS. The next great trial of that boy is to be obliged by a cruel master to sit with the girls at school. This usually comes before the development of those undeniable affinities which, in after fife, would tend to make the punishment more endurable. To be pointed out as a "gall-boy," to be smiled at grimly by the master, who is so far delighted with his own ineffable pleasantry as to give the little bovs licence to laugh aloud, and to be placed by the. side of a girl who had no handkerchief, and no knowledge of the use of that article, is, we submit, a trial of no mean magnitude. Yet we have been there, and have been obliged to " sit up close" with big Rachel, laughing and blushing , till we came to hate her name We wonder where the overgrown frowzy creature is now, and what the condition of her head is? ' THE FIRST LONG-TAILED COAT. We do not believe that any boy ever put on his first
long-tailed coat without a sense of shame. lie first twists lis back half off looking at it m the glass, and " then when he steps out of doors it seems to him as if all creation was in a broad grin. The sun laughs in the sky; the cows turn to look at him; there are faces at every window; his very shadow mocks him. When he walks by the cottage where Jane lives, he dares not look up for his life. The very boards creak with consciousness of the strange spectacle, and the old pair of pantaloons that stop a light in the garret-window nod with derision. If he is obliged to pass a group of men and boys, the trial assumes its most terrific stage. His legs get all mixed up with embarrassment, and the flap of the dangling appendage is felt upon them, moved by the wind of his own agitation; he could not i'eel worse were it a dishcloth, worn as a badge of disgrace. It is a happy time for him when he gets to church and sits down with his coatrtails under him; but he is still apprehensive with thinking of the Sunday-school, and wonders if any of the chilren will ask him to "swing his long-tail blue." i GOING HOME WITH THE GIRLS. The entrance into society may be said to take place after boyhood has passed away, yet a number take the initiative before their beards are presentable. It is a great trial, either to a tender or a tough age. For an overgrown boy to go to a door, knowing that there are a dozen girls inside, and to knock or ring with absolute certainty that in two minutes all their eyes will be upon him, is a severe test of courage. To go before these girls and make a satisfactory tour of the room without steping on their toes, and then to sit down and dispose of one's hands without putting them into one's pockets, is an achievement which few boys can boast. If a boy can get so far as to measure off ten yards of tape with one of these girls, and cut it short at each end, he may stand a chance to pass a pleasant evening, but let him not flatter himself that all the trials of the evening are over. There comes at last the breaking up. The dear girls don their hoods and put on their shawls, and look so saucy, and mischievous, and un impressible, as if they did , not wish any one to go home with them. Then comes the pinch, and the boy that has the most pluck makes up to the prettiest girl, his heart in his throat, and his tongue clinging to the roof of his mouth, and crooking his elbow, stammers out the words: "Shall I see you home ?" She touches her fingers to his arm, and they walk home about a foot apart, feeling as awkward as a couple of goslings. As soon as she is safe inside her own doors, he struts home, and thinks he has really been and gone and done it Sleep comes to him at last, with dreams of Coroline and calico, and he awakes in the morning and finds the doors of life open to him, and the pigs squealing for breakfast. A Happy Home. The first year of married life is a most important era in the. history of husband and wife. Generally, as it is spent, so is almost all subsquent existence. The wife and husband then assimilate their views and their desires, or else conjure up their dislikes, and so add fuel to their prejudices and animosities forever afterward. " I have somewhere read," says Rev. Dr. Wise in his " Bridal Greetings," "of a bridegroom who gloried in his eccentricities. He requested his bride to accompany him into the garden a day or two after the wedding. He then threw a line over the roof of their cottage. Giving his wife one end of it, he retreated to the other side and exclaimed : . "Pull the lino!" " I can't," she replied. " Pull with all your might 1" shouted the whimsical husband. J ;..'! But in vain were all the efforts of the bride to pull over the like, so long as the husband held on the opposite end. But when he came round, and both pulled at one end, it came ovtr with great ease. "There," said he, as the line fell from the roof, "you see how hard and ineffectual was our labor when we pulled in opposition to each other; but how easy and pleasant it is when we both pull together. It will be so, my dear, through life. If we act together, it will be pleasant to live. Let us, therefore, always pull together." In this illustration, homely as it may be, there is sound philosophy. Husband and wife must mutually, bear and concede, if they wish to make home a retreat ot joy and bliss. One alone can not make home happy. There must be union of action, sweetness of spirit, and great forbearance and love in both husband and wife, to secure the great end of happiness in the domestic circle. A Hard Customer. A green looking customer observed a sign hanging over a grocery store, reading thus : Wholesale and Retail . Store,' He worked his way through the crowd of ladies and gentlemen,' until he got facing one of the clerks, who was exhibiting some fine sugar to a young lady, when he broke out with : - - ' . ' Say Alister, who's boss here ?' , . . . ; ' The proprietor has just stepped out, sir.' " ' Well, be this a retailing shop ?" , t . The young man hardly comprehending greeny's thoughts, simply answered : ' Yes sir, a wholesale and retail store.' ' Guess you understand your trade ?' ' O, yes, replied the clerk, wrapping np a bundle for her lady customer, 'what can I do for you ?" ' Well as the cold weather is coming on, I thought I mought as well come and give you a job.' 'I don't understand you, stranger,' replied the clerk, who began to think the lellow was in the wrong box. ' Zactly so ; well, I'll tell you !" ' Explain what you mean, my friend,' said the clerk, as he saw him produce a bundle from under his coat ' Well, I said before, the cold weathers' coming on, I thought I mought as well, be fixin for it Come mighty, near freezing t'other winter, tell ye; I did,! but ' Stranger, I hope you will tell me what you want, so I may serve you,' interrupted the clerk, seeing there was a numberofcustomers waitingto be served, but who, in fact, had almost forgotten their errands in the rich conversation between the clerk and the droll customer. : . ' - t : . i , , . i . . i. Certainly, 'Squire, certainly, I always do business in a hurry, and just as quick as the old master will let you, I want you to retail these old shirts! : Let'em come down to about the knees, kase I don't wear any drawers! - . The effect may be imagined, but as the novelists say, can't be described." The loud burst of laughter which . lollowed, served to convince the poor fellow he had committed himself, and Lis long ks. were put in motion at the Tate of 2.40. " '
Chess Europe and England Succumbing to America. We cannot but deplore the humiliating position into which English chess players have been plunged by the proceedings of their champion, Mr. Staunton, toward his American rival, Mr. Morphy. This gentleman crossed the Atlantic in the most chivalrous manner, with the determination of "tryinga fall" with the European masters of the game, and immediately on his landing threw down his glove to Mr. Staunton in particular (to whom he allowed his own terms), and, in the mean time, was ready to play all comers. Nothing could be more straightforward than Mr. Morphy's conduct throughout the long period of time in which he has been kept in suspense, and during which he has displayed an amount of patience and good temper only to be equaled by himself when fairly engaged over the board. On the other hand, we are driven to the contemplation of the shifts to which Mr. Staunton has been induced to resort, the condemnation of which is sliared by nearly all the leading players both in Paris and London. For him the excuse my possible be made that he could not afford to risk his position as the acknowledged head of English chess; but no apology can atone for the attitude which he has assumed toward Mr. Morphy from the moment that he found there was a certainty of being compelled to come to a definite conclusion; and, so tar from his maneuvers being successful, they have had quite an opposite effect. A new champion must be sought for;
but we hardly expect to meet with a player ot Jur. Morphy's strength in our hour of need, and we are afraid that Europe as well as England, must bow the neck to America, and acknowfeuge themselves Beaten - The Field. Ladies Marrying Strangers. How common it is for worthy ladies, widows and single girls, to mar ry strangers, upon a very slight acquaintance! JLhe man may be a base villain, and he may have another wife, but it he have money, is a man ot good address, and wears fine clothes, those accomplishments will pass him, while honest men, well raised, and of known in tegrity, will be spurned. In this country, the basest villains living are admitted into good society, if they have money and dress well. However, pale, dreary, and toilsome, a single life may bo, an unhappy married life is ten times worse. And these hasty marriages with strangers, alone for their wealth, real or imaginary, are ever after full of innumerable regrets they are a torment from which there is no escape but by death ! , Girls, our advice to you is, never to barter a life long happiness for gold or fine clothes. When the e are the only ties that bind two persons together, the union cannot be otherwise than unhappy. Avoid all such men, and such ties, as you would famine and pestilence death and ruin ! " Marry for love and work lor riches," is an old and safe maxim. Never marry tor riches and work for love. This you will find an up-hill business. Brownlotc's Whig. A Georgia Railroad. The railroad between Kingston and Georgia, if it is not a one horse concern it is a mighty slow team. A friend of ours rejoicing in the name of Tick a telegraph man, too wa riding on the lightnin" train upon this road when he spied a negro toddling along with a pack upon hisback. In the exuberant generosity ot his nature, telegraph Tick screamed out : " Hailoa, uncle 1 come aboard come aboard and ride to town !" The polite and glistening African touched his piece of beaver, and replied: . , . " Beg pardon, massa, but I can't, must get dar soon, and hain't got de time to spar I" When we met Tick at Rome, last November, he expatiated warmly upon the merits of the safe road. Said he: . . , , " It is the cheapest road in the United States you can travel on it all day for a dollar !" . The Model Lady. The model lady puts her children out to nurse, and tends lap-dogs; lies in bed till noon; wears paper-soled shoes; pinches her waist; gives the piano fits; forgets to pay her milliner; cuts her poor relations; goes to church when she has a new bonnet; turns the cold shoulder to her husband, and flirts with his friends; never saw a thimble; don't know a darning-needle from a crowbar; wonders where pudings grow; eats ham and eggs in private, and dines on a pigeon's leg in public; runs mad after the last new fashion; doats on Byron; adores any man who grins behind a mustche; and when asked the asre of her youngest child, replies: " Don't know, ask Betty 1" ' "GO IN"TIGE1" The residents of North Water street were afforded no little amusement a few days since, by the incidents narrated to us in substance as follows : A conntryman, the owner of a large but usually good-natured dog, drove in town on the day stated Near the railroad crossing on Water street, " Tiger " fell into bad company, a regular muss ensued. Taken suddenly and almost unawares, the countryman's dog seemed hardly to comprehend whether it was a " free fight" in earnest, or only the rough sort of play of village "hounds," until he found himself in a "throat-to-mouth" contest with a regular fighting character in the shape of a trained bull-dog, and getting the worst of it His master, however, by this time comprehended the nature of the muss, and springing from his wagon caught the Dull-dog by his "narative and endeavored to separate the combatants. "Let that dou alone, or I'll lam you over the head !" growled a rough and excited looking customer stand ing Dy who proved to be the owner ot the Bull. " Oh, then you want 'em to fight, do ye?" ejaculated homespun, dropping the end ; and then at the top of his voice, shouted "Go in Tige!" And Tige did" go in." Instantly the tide of battle was trned. Tige secured and was making good use of his vantage ground, when Bull's owner suddenly became converted to a peacemaker. Suiting the action to the idea, he made a feint to release his dog from the vice like jaws of Tiger. " Let that dog alone, or I'll lam you over the head!" shouted the countryman; and he straightened up and swelled out to such huge proportions, that "Rock street" desisted, terror stricken at the menace. Tiger pursued his work in hand until the piteous " ky-ye !" of his assailant seemed to produce pity in the dog's heart of the former, for he relaxed his hold and the letter slunk away, with the appearance of three legs behind. , As the countryman jumped into his wagon, he called out to Bull-dog's master " Whenever you want another fight, just say the word, as me and Tige alters travel together!"
