A"verdant +" in a Cotton Mill.

Araw, straw hated, sandy whiskered six
footer--one Of the purely animated, came
in recently from Greene with load of
wood for factory company. Not satisf-
ed with contemplating the "poetry mo-
ton " at safe distance, our hero must
need introduce himself between the cards,
to get nearer view. This move brought
his /" neither habiliaments " into DANCE
rous proximity to the geering of the next
card, and " thereby hangs tale"
" You, | say She goes pooty, don't
she, Bos :" said Jonathan inquiringly.
"She don't do anything else," respon-
ded the stripper. "But you must be
very careful how you move around amongst
this hardware. 'Twas only last week, sir,
that promising young man from Oxford,
a student at the academy here, was drawn
into that very card, sir, and before any as
sistance could reach him, he was run thro',
and manufactured into No. 16, super ex-
ira, cotton warp yarn"
81 s-s-wow l believe yuer joking "
suffered Jonathan.
Fact, sir" continued stripper: "and
his disconsolate mother came down two
days ago, and got five punches of the same
yarn, as melancholy relics"
"By the poker, that can't be true!',
"Fact,sir, fact and each of his fellow
students purchased skein apiece, to be
set in lockcts, and worn in remembrance
of departed worth :"
Is that fact now? Was he really
carded, spun, and set in lockets 20
A sense of personal danger here shot
across our hero's mind; he began to re-
treat precipitately without waiting for an
answer But there was not much room to
spare betwixt himself and the geering Of
the card behind. Another step backwards
completed the ceremony of introduction.
His unwisperables being Of large " caibre"
the process of snarling them up into hard
knot was no ways slow Our hero "gave
tongue instanter.
ooh! M-u-r-d-e-r! Let go!-you
HURT! Blast your pictur Let go !!
Amt ye ashamed Get out Let alone
on me--can't ye do ~
The card stripper threw off the belt, but
the momentum Of the cylinder kept it re.
volving, and our hero, supposing it in full
operation, burst out anew.
Oh, stop hel ! stop her, do; amt
we'll, and I orter be at home. Father
wants the steers, and mothers going to
bake Stop the tarnarl masheen, can't ye
do Aint you got no feelin for feller in
Distress Oh, dear I'll be carded and
spun, and made in lockets Je-ru-sa
lem how 1 wish I was to Greene !"
The card was stopped at last, but Jona-
than's was so tangled in the gecring, that
it was no slight task to extricate him, and
it was only by cutting out the whole of the
invested territory" that he was finally
released Yankee Blade.

well as in name. This will permit us to respect
our own station, and to treat on equal grounds
