"About twelve days, sir"
ttn,,s ala T-,a,l G.,.,l. ,..a. 80 i

"About twelve days, sir"
"Our old friend Smith was not dead when
you IeGt?n
"No, sir-yes, q" said Pap, thinking, from the
tone, that the postmaster knew Smith IL be
dead, but suspected that Pap had hurried off to
! Washington before his decease had actually oc-
CURED.
"He ,Das dead, you say! that is, indeed,
strange We received his official return for The
last quarter yesterday-yes! that is his sigHa-
tnre, certainly. Mr.. Smiths services to the
party have long been appreciated by the gov
ernmcnt."
Pap was rather overwhelmed by this, but i'm
rudence carried him through trunphantly.
"Why, we thought he was dead, sir" rep-
ed he; 'the belief was very general, as you " i'll
see, by looking at the signatures on my petit
tion.n
"Ah! yes-good men, too-sound, thorough
goers most of them; we know many of them
Pm very sorry for the little mistake that has
happened" said the dignitary, blandly, who
expected 10 be sup" for an Office in the peo-
Ple's gift, some day HIMSELF and was, there
fore, too much of a tactician 10 aft ont any one
possessing the slightest party inhuence-"very
sorry, indeed, Mr. Pap. The department
would have been happy to have conferred the
office on one who comes so well recommended
by good men as yourself, Mr.. Pap. In future
If would be allowed to suggest-it would
not be improper to defer making an applica-
ton for an Office rendered vacant by death, I'M
til-these things are so uncertan-untl an I'M
dertaker is engaged-in fact it might be left
until the incumbent's funeral had started from
his late residence Good morning, MIR. Pap
a happy journey home"
Pap, on his arrival at Snooksvlle, gave out
that he had been on journey to Boston; but
office hunters, seeking to fill vacant situations
IN other towns in this county, had also been at
Washington, and the story Of his application
for Smiths Office was soon the town talk. Not
only that, but it was discovered in what man
ner he had used the lamp-post petition. Those
OF his own party, whose names were affixed to
it, were inclined to wink at the affair, Tor the
purpose of securing Pap's future influence; but
the opposition were indignant. A lawyer was
consulted, who declared "that forgery was the
fraudulent making or alteration Of a writing to
the prejudice of another" The opposition de-
clared that using their signatures, to recon-
mend a candidate Of another party, was terri
bly, prejudicial to their party standing. Mr..
Peleg Pap, was, therefore, arraigned, found
guilty of forgery, and sentenced to three years,
at hard labor, in the county prison. As soon
as he arrived there, the superintendent, who
knew his shrewdness, installed him in the stu
alton as overseer of the convicts in one of the
departments.
When Ma'am Smith heard of it, she said
that "she really believed that that was the We
ry office Peleg Pap was huntin' for from the We
ry tust."

WOMAN'S LOT.

Oh! say not weman's lot is hard,
Her path path Of sorrow.
To day, perchance, some joy declared
May yield more JOY tomorrow.
IL is not hard-it cannot be,
To speak in tones Of gladness,
TV hush the sigh Of misery
And sOOtb the brow Of sadness.
Il is not hard sweet fiDwers to spread,
To strew the path with roses,
To smoolhe the couch and rest the head,
When some loved friend reposes.
1t is not hard to trim the hearth
For b!O!hers home returning;
To wake he songs Of harmless mirth,
Where winter fires are burning.
1t is not hard, SISTERS love
To pay with love as tender;
When cares perplex, and trials prove
A sisters help 10 render.
II is not hard, when troubles come,
And doubts and fears distressing,
To shelter in fathers home,
And feel mothers blessing,
II is not hard when storms arise
mid darkness and detection;
To look 10 heaven with trusting eyes,
And ask its kind protection.
Then say not woman's lot is hard,
Her path the path of sorrow;
To-day, perchance, some JOY deblrred
May yield sweet peace tomorrow.
