T1TE LITTLE PEOPLE.

I'm well through my pane," as the

boy

who had bis tooth drawn said when he threw stones at the dentist's windew.

Tho reason for the existence of the grout number of mutton-heads is thai MO many children are "perfect little lambs."

Tho Ohio boy who insisted that tie iark was the last bird to soar in the morning was an innocent child who had gleaned his knowledge from seeing how late his father slept after being out on a lark.

A little boy in Georgetown ran into the house tho other day, crying at the top of his voice because another little boy wouldn't let him put mud on his head with a shingle. Some children are just like their parents, no accommodation about them.

Johnny, tho minister's son, went to his father one morning, dlroctly after family worship, saving, "Father, while you wero prayluir. saw a man stealing grapes." "Well," said the good man, "If you had been praying too, you would not In vn seen him."

Two urchins, live or six years old, returning from school recontly, wore overheard discussing groat theological questions. "Well," snya urchin number one, "The Lord owns all this world, don't he?" "Yaas, I 'sposo ho does," responded number two, "but dad says tho devil's got a bli^morgidgo on It."

SOOIKTY IIARITS.—A

Now York pa

per, not given to sensationalism, says in regard to that city that tho use of wine among gentlemen at parties has grown to such a magnitude that if It is not banished docent women will not attend them, and thst the pernicious custom of furnishing and drinking is sapping the foundation of social morality.

Through it young men are becoming blackguards, and m&ldons forgetting how to fclush." Taking ''society" to moan the fashionable, tho most conspicuous, and in a large degree the most influential portion of the community, this Is without doubt a true Indictment. No words rati add to the seriousness which fails upon every sound mind, ami pervades every pure heart, when the truth Is fully reali7.od. That in the social gathering of the sexes, where you are in tho "numerical majority," where the buoyaucy of every life should bo snfliclent inspiration, and whero every instinct naturally leads to A frank but normal exhibition of one's self, there should be introduced a tire as dangerous as unnecessary speaks as ill for the mental resources as the moral sentiment of "society."

FOBOOTTHKT CKKKMUTIW.—We are now reminded, in spite of the recent rumors, that the ones brilliant celebrity known at Tagiionl, is even yet a living personage, and not a mere reminiscence of a former generation, as most people may have supposed. So, too, we imagine, many experienced a slight start when they read that among the hearer« of Mr. Adams'eulogy on Mr. Seward at Albany was Kx-president Flllinoro. What, ho alive yet? Certainly, and, we are glad to hear, likely to be so for some time to come. And, then, we learn that the onee and for long while famous Santa Anna Is not only still alive, but proposes to give the worid a history of his career. And so there are many other celebrities who hftvagtMRtt into an eclipae which ofteu miKM one uncertain whether it is not that of tb«4r lait sleep. Where Is Louis Kossuth? What has become of Jules: F&vtt) Paul Morphy we have lately heiull f?om, and we believe tfcaraia a. president of an insurance company somewhere itr tUffSOffHtrnir son iMvls.

A OI.KVKI.AXI paper (the Leader) makes the astonishing announcement that one of tho most reliable fashion importers of this city says that ladle® dresses for spring wear are made with an Alexis polonaise, the waist of which contains a steel strap' concealed by a masked panler. When a young gentleman calls who is considered a catch, and accidentally or otherwise places his arm around the wearer's waist be hears a "click" and finds his arm caught. A brother and lamp en tor, and-UWwo. t/nderthecfrxmbtslaneos St would be well for young men to bo careiuL The ne*t little arrangement will, Ot course, be generally adopted,

and there's no telling who in ay have It. If the lady has no big brother, cou*lnt or other invention of that kind, the

trap will be oouaparattraiy of lluie aocount, bat all tho facta abould be known in advance of commencing boa-1 tilitiea. I.
