EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF 4 FIXED
TAR.--Srius, very respectable stellar fixture,
has been accused Of "reeling 10 and FRO, and
staggering like drunken man" From this
charge which was apparently well authenticated
writer ia the National Inielligencer undertakes
to vindicate the leader Of the starry pack known
collectively as Cams MAJOR. il is not denied
that the Deg Star has seemed TO move up an
down, and right and left, as # he had been taking
something short; out these capers are expcable
by the principles of atmospheric reGractIon. To
go into the phi sophy of the thing and show tho
manner IN which rays Of light vary their direction
according TO the density, moisture, and iempara-
ture Of the medium through which they pass,
would occupy more space than we can spare.
An illustration must therefore suffice 10 exhibit
the cause of the apparent inehriation Of our old
friend Sirius. The reader has doubtless noticed,
in hooking at a heated stove-pipe. that the air
around it had the appearance of fluid IN state
Of tremor, aud that The objects beyond and in
line with il, seemed 10 partake OF the treinuloas
motion. In gazing over the deserts Of Africa, the
same phenomenon is observed on grander scale.
in the form of the mirage, which is occasicned
by the unequal refraciion Of the lower strata Of
the atmosphere. The vibrations Of Sirius arise
from the same cause. This explanation is due to
ipminary which has always been considered
sober and decent star: and as the reign Of Sirius
will commence in a few days, we take the ear
liest opportunity to confue the scandal which has
gone abroad concerning him, and to set him right
with his friends and the public. II IS wei! OBJ
served by cotempcrary that we are too apt 10
ascribe follies and errors TO those above and be-
yond Us, which are in truth decisions due to the
atmosphere enveloPing ourselves.--lN. Y. Sun

Sweet and Bitter.

When was litltc boy, remember one
cold winters day, | was accosted by a smil-
ing man With an axe on his shoulder:
"My little fellow, has our father grind
stoneH'
"Yes, SIR"
"You're fine little feliow-will you let
me grind my axe upon i,:"
Pleased with the compliment Of fine little
fellow, | answered,
"Oh, yes sir sit down in the shop"
"And will you, my little man." tapping
me on the head, get me a ltte hot waite" "
How could ] refuse | ran and soon
brought him kettle full.
"How old are You! What is your name
am sure you are one of the best lads J ev-
er saw. Will you just turn few min
utps!"
Tickled with his hattery, like a fool,
went to work, aud bitterly did | rue the
day. II wHs a new axe, and | toIIe,l and
tugged ill was tired almost to death. The
school bell rang, AMI could not get away;
INV hands were blistered and it was not hall
ground. At length, however, the axe was
sharpeued, aud the man turned TO me with
! "Now, you little rascal, you have played
the truant-scud 10 school, ar you'll rue IT,.
Alas ! thought |, it WAS hard enough TO
rurn the grinds,one; and then to he called o
ssllule rascal" was indeed too much.
! II sunk deep in my heart, and have Of
ten thought of it since.
When have seen man Of doubtful
character patting a pretty girl on the cheek
prasing her sparkling eyes and ruby lips
and giving her tight squeeze-beware
my girls, thinks J, or you will fnd to you
sorrow, that you have been turning th'
Criidstune for Il villain.

Origin of TammapY Hall.
The New York Herald gives the follow

ing history Of Tammauy Hall
A few years prior to the Revolution there
existed many British clubs or soci~ties, such
as the the ST. Georges, ST. David's, ST.
Andrews; Ac., not oBlysin this city, but ST.
George societies were OPENED in all the mar
itiine towns and cities Of the colonies
The members Of these societies were all
liege subjects Of St. George. In 1878, hen
dSaffection 10 the mother country Gas
Great Britain was then called) began to
spread through her North American colo-
nies, those opposed to The relations THAI ex-
listed found il necessary to form some rally
ing point, in order to ascertain and combine
their strength. This was the origin of the
St. TamBany Society or Columbian Order.
and its operations were secret and directed
against torysm, until after the Revelation
was accomplished 1t then directed its pow
er against federalism, and that party that
Inherited, 10 a certain extent, the men and
principles of the 20 tories. 5
Ii has more of the power and character;
istics Of national institution than a local
one, and in time of trial has welded ter
rible power throughout the federal Uniots.
There are members OF the order from ev-
cry State, and have been from the COM
mencement. Its sachems are thirteen; CONF
putting with the thirteen States that formed
the Union. Its banners are thirteen, each
having The name and coat Of arms OF these
old thirteen States emblazoned upon IT.
On it's hooks are enrolled -6ne of itie most
prominent dead and living statesmen OF tie
democratic party, such as De Wit Clinton,
Aaron Burr, Daniel ID. Tompkins, Andrew
Jackson, Richard M. johnson, Martin Van
Buren,, Dixon Ii. Lewis, aud a host Of
planets, stars and small lights Of the great
republican party, comprising about 1000
names. There are perhaps 600 now living.
Of these, about 80 generally meet al the
annual election. This year 1873 voted.
The Tammany Society own the building
now known as Tammany Hall, which is
worth 500, 900. The sachenis vote sll The
appropriations and collect the revenue. No
,nau can be sachem ar other officer unless
be be. a member. The grand sachem is
elected by the sarhens from their own
ranks. The sachems hold great power
II they are uD,red, they can units the Sec
tons Of the democracy, AMI prevent eny
party from meeting IN the hall but such as
they endorse and consider the regular de-
mocracy. Although the general commit
tee, elected by the eighteen wards, appear
to be the power that regulates the democra-
cy, hut it Is not SO. "There is n power be-
hind the throne greater than the throne it,
self" and that power is the sachelns Of Old
Iamlnauy.

wife. The young lady who disliked the
name of mechanic, is now the wife of q
miserable fcol--a regular vagrant about
grogshops-and she a poor miserable girl,
is obliged to take in washing in order TO sup
port herself and children. aT
You who dislike the name Of mechan-
ic, whose brothers do nothing but loaf and
dress--be ware how you treat young men
who work for living. Far better discard
the well fed pauper with all his rings, jew
elry, and brazen pomposity, and take 10
your affections the callous handed, inrelli-
gent and industrious mechanic. Thousands
have bitterly regretted their folly, who have
turned their backs OIL honest industry. A
few years of bitter experience have taught
them severe lesson. In this country NO
man or woman should be respected, in our
thinking, who will not work bodily or men
tally, and who curl their lips with scorn,
when introduced to hard working meu.

SomErHING FOR THE GREAT ExHIBI-

il appears by the late census. would have been
an appropriate contribution from this country to
