MISCELLANY.
From the New England Galaxy.
A TALE OF TRAINING.

Or a Chapter Of The Adventures Of the
Massachusetts Militia.
No body up and down the country was
equal 10 Josh Beanpole, of Rye. He
grew up faster than hop-vine or a
string been. He was a man before he
knew it, and being told of it, gave himself
such airs that he was thought quite the
thing by all the girls ten miles around
He was an absolute dandy, if such thing
could be among the woods. He was the
foremost IN all the husking-partes, quill
r,tings house-warmings, sleigh-rides, and
scrapes Of all colors, wore an eel-kin queu
and a ruff1e shirt on Sundays. and so by
hook and crook got into such favor with
the feminine gender, that he might almost
have taken his pick of the whole town.
There was not one who would have
said no to such gallent gay Lolhario as
our Josh, except one. AS the devil would
have it. she happened to be the very one
Josh wante ed to get.
Dos There is no accounting for the whims
of a woman; SO we shall not attempt to
assign the cause why Nancy Crabtree
turned up her nose at Josh BeanpoIe.
Certain il is that Josh stuck to her like
burr without any effect. She carried
her head high. looked askew and gave
Josh the go-by whenever he attempted to
be familiar.
Some thought that she looked upon
Josh with all his accomplishments 10 be
no great shakes. Others thought she had
2 set her cap for the parson ofthe parish.
There might have been some truth in this
last supposition. for when the parson, to
: her great surprise married the widow
Sly, Nance began to relent, and Josh
found himself getting into favor. He laid
siege to her heart with redoubIed aidor,
and the whole town at last thought il |
would be match. Still she was now
and then little offish. & Josh was sharp
sighted enough to see lha. he must cast
about for some uncommon expedieu, to

THE THEATRE.

The Theatre is the entering wedge &c
every other vice; wherever they erect ar

springs up, right under its wing, an oys

tiers of the first are generally the regular

Giants SO make entry. Little think their
masters--who at the same hour, may be
playing cards in Leroy-placo with some
worthy brother of the clolh-that their
FIVE dollar bills are flying about in Church
street like chaff before the wind and
little think the farmers of Rhode and
Long Island, when they send their sons
to New York to me asure cloth and sell
muslin de lane, that they have pitched
them into the mouth of the roaring lyon,
that he is dragging them along the road
to ruin and down the chambers of black
despair. This custom of boys aud young
men sleeping in the store, is sore evil
under the sun and entrusting them with
the front door key of the store, is a sore
temptation to steal from the till by day.

Besides, dramatic representations unfit
the mind for the steady routine ofbusiness
and for all the sober realities of life
Let any one walk into the stores on
Broadway or Pearl street, between the
hours of three and four, while their en-
ployers are gone to their dinners, and the
clerks will be seen standing in groups,
with pen stuck behind the ear, the bales,
the bills, the day-book. and ledgers, oil

about Celeste's dancing. Woods singing,

In this all important discussion, and SO
loath are they TO be interrupted in their
favorlte and all engrossing subject, that
that the poor grave digger is frowned
from the Threshold, with an abrupt and
suriy no (! although they know that they
have fifty dozen of the self same article
lying on the shelf at that very moment.
Self interest and common sense make
them keep their eyes on their books and
