COUNTRY BOYS. I

Country lads often feel that their lot is a bard one they see city bred youngsterson tbeir travels and tbeir sprees at the age of 14!—veritable young gentlemen, witb a finished exterior, a cigar, and a cane. Tiie yonng farmer at the same age finds himself, witb a boe in his band and a cheap ptraw hat on his head, sweating among the bills of corn. He is frequently envious of this city brother whisking past him in me cars, witb kid gloves, delicate ringlets, and plenty of money in bis pcckets.

Mind your c: ru, boy I H-e it out -lain ep stea iiy on the labor you have in hand do it well, and in time your good days will come, too. If you find farming is'not suited to your taste, oryour strength, or your circumstances if you like mechanism better, or have an eye to business whatever you may eventually engage in, it is all the same you have begun right.

The city blades have begun wrong and in due Ume you will sen it. Their fathers end mothers will see it, too. Do not feel envious of tbe pleasures that a hot house man enjoys, but rem ember, not in a malicious but sober spirit, that such plant* wither early.

By tbe time you bave acquired fixed habits of industry, and acquired a corresponding perfection of mind and body

?he

our delicately reared contemporary of town begins to feel the debilitating effects of idleness and dissipation. He is not alone to blame for a weak body and a profitless mind it is tbe result of a system, but he can not escape from it* effects these he^ust endure for himself In his own person.

His father may be a professional" man or a merchant, or may b® merely rich the chances are fifty against one that the son will not replace bis father.

Such is tbe reault of well settled experience. Business falls into the bands of those who are most competent it does not fall to heirs. It is tbe country boys, alter all, who do the city business.

All external clrcum stances are in favor of the son of the clerk succeeding to the trade of the old firm but tbe son seldom, almost never, dies iu the position of a partner of tbe noaae. Why is this Simply because habitual industry is wanting, and habitual indulgence is not wanting. With all the external odds against tbe oountiy.it famishes tbe cities tneir principal business men. If intelligent, faithful, and persevering, and, above all, cheerful and contented, tbe chanoes are that the lad with tbe boe will eventually do the business of tbe father of tbe laa in gloves, who is now luxuriating in his travels.

DONN PIATT IN A BALL ROOM. [From the Washington Capital.] We never attended the graduating exercises at West Point, but we did years ago run down to a ball at Annapolis. We happened, on I he cars, to sit by a stout old party, possessed of a ruddy, motherly countenance. She was quite oommunicative,' and soon told us that she was on her way to Annapolis to see her son 'grad-i-ate,' to use her own ex-

iression. We took charge of that old was so itood, kind, sensible antf motherly. We were present at the meeting between the mother and boy—a handsome, manly youth, one any mother could be proud of.

After supper we asked the old lady if she intended visiting the ball, and she said she would like to look in. but her son said it was quite 'unpossibie,' as all tbe 'tickets' were gone, we volunteered to procure tbe magic pasteboard, and in due time we made a grand entree, creating some sensation, for the old lady had gotten herself up regardless of expense or appearance. The son was revolving with a beautiful girl—one of the Washington belles—and in one of tbe pauses of tbe dance we saw bis fair partner looking at us and laughing. The eyes of the.young man sought tbe objtiot of her evident morriuieut. and when be saw us the expression of liis faoe was that of, first dismay and then wrath.

The dear old lady asked us to get her a glass of water. As we returned we passed tbe son and saw two red spots upon bis chtoit*, and his brow corrugated In wrath. Our aged friend, stout as she was, seemed itaay to sink, and asked to be taken to a hotel. We at once hastened to oomply, although assum) that she was not ill. But while waiting for the one. available back of Annapolis, we saw two huge tears well out from her dear old eves and course their way down her thin and rather pale faoe, and noting our anxious look she said: •Don't mind me I'm a foolish old woman and ought to have stayed a' home, for my son is ashamed of bis eld mother.'

We are justly proud of our navy. Her

gle

allant sons having swung the eagles of republic too often in triumph through the smoke of battle not to bave endeared them to tbe patriotic heart of the Nation. But would it not be well to correct that one defect? It Is not well to begin life in this way.

A BO Y\S CVMPOSITION OA BABIES. There are (bur different kinds of babies. TbQMR the big baby, tbe little baby, thd^rhlt© baby, and the poodle dog, and there ia tbe baby elephant.

Most of these babies was born in a boarding house, 'eept the baby elephant I think he was born on a railroad train, 'oause he alius carries bis trunk with him.

A white baby is peoUer nor a elephant baby, but he eau't eat so much hay. All the babies what I bave ever seen were bom very foung, 'specially the gal babies, and they cant none of them talk the United State* language.

My father had—I mean my mother had a tabv once. It was not an elephant baby it wasa little white baby, it corned one day when there wa» nooody home it was a fUnny looking foUow, just like a lobster.

I asked my father was it a boy or a

lrl, and he say he dont know whether was a father or a mother. Tbe lttle baby baa got two legs, just like a monkey.

His name is Maria. He don't look like my

One day I asked my Uncle Tom what waa the reason he aint got no hair and tbe little baby ain't got no hair. He says he dont know, 'cept that tbe lltUe baby waa born so, and he ia a married man.

One day I pulled a feather oat of tbe old rooster's tail and I stuck it np the baby's noee and it tickled him so be al* most died. It waa only a bit of a feather, and I didn't see what ne wanted to make such a fuss about it for. My mother said I oogbt'er be ashamed of myself, and I didn't get no bread on my batter for more'n a week.

One day tbe sheriff come into the

house to collect a bill of for crockery. My fttber says he 'can't pay the bill,' and* the sberitt he say, 'then I take something,' and he took a look around the room an' be see'd the little baby and he sayy'Ab, ha! I take this, and be

Eim

icked up the little baby, and he wrap up in a newspaper, and he take biin away to the station-nou»e.

Tbeu my mother she commenced to •cry, an* my father ssy, 'Hush, Mary Ann, that waa ail right. Dont you see how we fooled thst fellow? Don't you see the hill for crockery was for #9, and tbe little baby was only worth two and halt

I think I'd rather be a girl not a boy, 'cause when a girl gets a whipping she gets it on ber fingers, but when a boy gets a licking be ^ets it all over.

I dont like babies very muii anyhow, 'cause they make so much noise. I never knew but one quiet baby, and he died.—[Troy Budget.

THE OF

UNWllITTKN HIDE GREAT MEN.

We always think of great men as in the act of perlorming deeds which give tbem renown, or else in stately repose, grand, silent, and majestic. Ana yet this is hardly fair, because tbe most racious and magnificent of human bengs bave to bother tbemselves witb the little things of life which engage the attention of us smaller people. No doubt Moses snarled and got angry wbeu he had a severe cold in his hoad, and if a fly bit his leg while he was in the desert, why should we suppose he did not jump and use violent language, and rut» tbe sore place? And Csssar—isn't it tolerably certain be used to become furious when be went up stairs to get his slippers in tbe dark and found tbatCalphuruia had stowed tbem under tbe bed so that he had to sweep around tbem wildly with a broom handle? And when Solomon cracked his crazy bone is it unreasonable to suppose that he ran around the room «nd felt as if he wanted to cry? Imagine Qeorge Washington sitting on the rage of the bed and putting on a clean shirt. and growling at Martha because tbe buttons were off or St. Augustine witb an apron around bis neck, having his bair cut or Joan of Arc bold iag ber front hair in ber mouth, as wo men do, while she fixed up her back hair Napoleon jumping out of bed in a frenzy to chase a mosquito around tbe room with a pillow or Martin Luther, in a night shirt, trying to put tbe baby to sleop at two o'clock in the morning or Alexander the Great, with the hiccoughs or of Thomas Jefferson, getting suddenly over a fence to avoid a dog, or the Duke of Wellington, with tbe muuip or Daniel Webster abusing bis wife Because she hadn't tucked the cover at the foot of the bed or Benjamin Franklin, paring his corns with a razor or Jonathan Edwards, at tbe dinner ta ble, wanting to sneeze Just as he got his mouth full of hot beel or Noah stand lug at his window at night throwing biTcks at a cat.— Max Adder.

DON'T LOSE A MINUTE. Keep busy. The man who has nothing to do is tbe most miserable of beings. If you bave no regular work, do choree as "termersdo when it rains too hard to work in tbe field. In occupation we forget oar trouble*, and get a respite from sorrow. Tbe man whoee mind and hands are busy fiuds no Ume to weep and wail. If mork Is si ask, spend the time in reading. No man ever Knew too much. Tbe hardest students In the world are the old men who know the most. If you lack books, there are free or very cheap libraries^ at least in cities, at your command. Hie man who does not acquire some item of useful information between daybreak and bed-time must mournfully say,with tbe Roman Emperor, 'I have lost a day.'

THB

WootAHT—A young lady

was at a party, daring which quarrels between husband and wife »ere discussed. 'I think,' said an unmarried older eon, 'that the proper thing is for the husband to have it oat at onoe, and thus avoid ^uarnsls for the future. I would light a cigar in the carriage after the wedding breakfast, and settle the smoking question forever.' *1 would knock the cigar out of your mouth,' interrupted the belle, 'Do yon know I dont think yon would be there,' he remarked.

bodiea of three men were found

banging to a tree recently, iu Red River oounty, Texas, with a placard pinned to one of them, bearing ail the information what is known of them. It read: 'Here is where we found them, and here ia where we left tbem. Tbey stole borate in Arkanaaa, and we are from there and strangers here.' The bodies were taken down and buried oy tbe etttsens of the neighborhood.

ABOUT MRS. HAYES.

How a Reporter was Charmed. [From tbe Hcchesfcr Democrat and Chronicle. I While Mr*. Hayes was in Vermont a freckle-fro*# servant girl, who has a speaking acquaintance with a reporter of the New York Herald, was continually overwhelmed. "Will you have coflee or tea 7" she said beseechingly to the govd la^y. "Let it be lea, paid Mrs. Hayes promptly, at tne same time inadvertently raining her eyes. ''It was observtd," write*-the Herald reporter in description ol this charming incident, "that Mrs. H*ve« was at times otrabgCly afftcxd. Her thoughts appeared to be continually with God and her coun'ry Se«ted at the bountiful table of Mr. Evarta, she often raised her 4ves a« if in supplication or graiituria and when one ol Mr. Evarin' charming aseiatants asked her a simple question as to tbe kind of beverage she preferred, she paused, looked steadily oat of the window at the beau'iful landscape, and said fervently, though in an absent tone. 'Light, love, and liberty.' The exact •ugitificaiice of thin charming alliterative remark will perhaps never be known but Secretary Key, who sat nearly opposite, WJB observed to put up his hand, apparently to remove an inadvertent cherry stone, and whisper to bis right-hand neighbor. "'She refers to the southern policy.' But there are those, I need hardly say, who give to the words a broader agd a nobler meaning."

Again, tbe 'reckle-faced servant ^irl poured for Mrs. Haye« a glass of icewater. A smile of great good humor went round the circle at this exhibition of temperance, and Mr.t&Evarts was observed to hastily place his napkin over a glass of wine at his right hand and say something to an assistant near his chair

It will be seen that Mrs. Hayes, whether she will or not,

characteristic,

incidents which it has ever fallen to my happy lot to chronicle. The conversation had partially lulled, and the assistant advanced and deftly poured into a choice cut-glass tumbler at Mrs. Hayes' right a quantity of sparkling water just drawn trom the old-fashioned well on Mr. Evarts'farm, the purity and coolnesoof the same being greatly enhanced by various trticles of crystal like ice. Mrs. Hayes at once turned her at ention fjou the other matters of moment and gazed fondly down upon the colorless liquid, seeming to recognize it at first glance. Then her faultless eyes rapidly swept the table, taking in tbe less harmless depths of the other minature caverns Witb a fine exhibition of good breeding, and in deference to a general demand that nothing should be permitted to mar the festivities of the occasion, she refrained from all vocal comment, scarcely permitting a look of'displeasure to mar the beauty of ber classic countenance. Then she looked again at the sparkling depths of her chosen beverage, permitting a sigh of exceeding satisfaction to float out upon the enraptured air, clapped her hands together like a girl ju?t out of school, and said rapturously. 'Water, bright water for mel The effect was electric. Even the mild sinners who had wine in theirs felt it, and I doubt if thereafter, to the end of the banquet, they touched their lips to the liquid which, whileii cheers for the moment, likewise inebriates. It wis the greatest temperance lecture I ever heard."

INTERESTING BIT OF HISTORY.

Whi Wrote the Article thai Nearly Made Lincoln a Duelist [To the Editor of The New York W orld.J

Sir: It wa* somewhere about tbe year 1840 that the writer, then a small boy. living in a little village on the line of he old state road running from^ St. Louis to Indianapolis, met one morning as he was going*to mnrket ene of the colored bovs who had been a home servant of bis father's in the state cf Alabama seated upon a first-class carriage. I asked Hiram—for that was hi* name—where he came from and where he was going to? He replied from "Springfield, sir, and am taking on? of two gentlemen down to Bloody Island to fight." "Bloody Inland" is no* known as East St. Louis, and from 1820 till 1847, nnder the first constitution of Illinois, there were, perhaps, not less than one hundred duels fought thereon. It turned out that the gentlemen who were to slaughter one another upon thisbloodr field were none less tn«n Abraham Lincoln, ofBlack Hawk" war fame, and the wen Captain Paddy Shieldc, who had seen service in the British army. And here let me say that it was because they stopped for break fas' at onr little village thit perhaps Lincoln was spared and saved to make for himself such a grand and glorious nam* throughout the world as he afterwards did. and that Shields became a roe and honored soldier, not only in the Mexican, but in the war to preserve the Union for the circuit court was then in session for that county, and in attendance were wue of the leading lawyers of the district, among whom were Lincoln's and Shield's personal and political friends, and as soon as it was noised about—as it was immediately alter breakfast—that they bad gone to ''Bltiody Island" to fight, then it was that 8tephen A. Douglas—who was at that time prosecuting attorney for our district—R Sff. English, our member of assembly, and A. W, Cavarly, our senator, all three of whom were warm polltiml friends of Captain Shields: Colonel John J. Hardin, afterwards Killed at Buena Vista, ana Colonel Edwin D. Baker, killed at Boll's Bluff, friends of Lincoln, started io hot pursuit to over take the duelists. In this they did not succeed till they reached the ground upon which tbe fight was to take place. Upon their arrival they found both Lin coin and Sbields ready for the combat. They soon succeeded is inducing 8hields to withdraw the chsllenge for five minutes, in order that Lincoln might make an explanation, and should this be satis factory to Shields, he (Shields) should not in future attempt to find out or discover who might have been (lie author of the newspaper article from which the tr able arose. As soon as Captain Shields withdrew the challenge, Mr. Lincoln at once assured him, on his honor as a nan, thst he bed never seen or heard of tbe article in question till he read the seme

in the morning paper, and that he «tos in no sense responsible foi the ssme, but had simply espoused the authorship of it in order to protect the pood name of a most estimable joung girl in Springfield. This settled what might have terminated in a bloody affair. The would-be combatants shook bands and vera ever afterwards good friends. But for years the question wa?, Who wrote th« article? It is now an open, secret in 8pringfield. It peeaas that a Miss Javne, who had recently graduated from Monticellotaeuiinary and wiio was quite a belle »t the caj italj hud tbree young lawyers a» her sdmirer.4. Mr. Lincoln wa* one and CapL Shield* wss another, and she hud written the article which tbe Irish poldier thought was a reflection upon himself, for he, he it kn »wn, was a very vain man and considered himself I andaome. Neither Shields nor Lincoln married tbe girl, but she became the loving and honored wife of Lyman Trumbull.*

The love that survives the tomb is the no jlest attribute of the soul. If it bas woes, it has likewise its delights and when the overwhelming burst of grief is lulled into the gentle tear of recollection, then the sudden anguish and convulsive agony over tbe present ruins of all we most loved are softened away into pensive meditation of all that it was in the days of its loveliness. Who would root snCh a sorrow from tbe heart? Tbough It may sometime?, throw a passing cloud over the bright hour of gaiety, or spread a deeper sadness over tbe hours of gloom, yet who would exchange it for the song of pleasure or tbe burst of revelry. No, there is a voice from tbe tomb sweeter than song there is a remembranoe of the dead to which we turn even from tbe charm of living.

Dear Sir—I am seventy-one years of age have suffered many years with Kidney Complaint, weakness in my back aud stomach. I was induced by friends to try your VEOETINE, aud 1 think it the best medicine for weakness of the kidneys I ever used. 1 have tried many remedies for this complaint, and never found so much relief as from the VEOKTINE.
