Mr.. Clay and the Goat.

Almost everybody in Washington City
remembers an old goat which formerly in
hl5ited y lylor stable on Pennsy vanIa Az
enue. This animal was, ia all probability,
the most independent citizen of the me-
uopols; he belonged to no party, though
he frequently gave the passengers striking
praofs &C hts adhes,on TO the levchng prin-
cPle; for whenever person stopped any
where in his vlclnage, Billy was sure TO
make at him, horns and all. The boys
took delight IN irritating this longbearded
gentleman, and frequently annoyed him SO
that he would make against lamp posts and
trees, to their great amusement.
One day the luminary oc the West, Hem
~ Clay, was passing along the Aycuue, and
seeing the boys intent on Worrying Billy in-
to d fever, stopped, aud with his character
lstlc humanity, eNposiulated with them on
their cruelty. The boys listened in silent
awe To the eloquent appeal Of the great
statesman; bat II was all Cherokee to Billy,
who-the uDgraleiul scamp l-arose majes-
tically on his hinder legs, aud made a dcs-
perale plunge at his friend and advocate
Mr.. Clay, although he had not slain a Mex
Ican, proved himself too much for his
horned assailant; he seized hold OF both
horns of the dilemma, and then was the
tug Of for Greek had met Greek. The
struggle was long aud doubtful.
'Ah = exclaimed the statesman, | have
got you fast, 700 rascal rIlteach,you bet
ter manners. But boys, continued he, turn
ing to the laughing urchins, what shall
do now 7
Why trip up his feet, Mr.. Clay said
they. Mr.. Clay did as he was told, and az
ter many severe Efforts brought Billy down
on his side. Here he looked at the boys
imploriDgly seeming 10 say, | never was
! in such a fix before }!
The comba,an,s were nearly exhausted /;
goaty had the advantage, for he was gain
lng breath all the time that the statesman
was losing it.
Boys, exclaimed he, putting and blow
/ ing, this is rather awkward business
/ What am ] 10 do now 7
/ Why-don't you knowp said little
fellow, making a preparation to run as he
spoke all you've got to do is to let go,
aud run like blazes T.

From the Boston Olive Branch.
The Railroad Engineer.
nY MRS. NJ. A. DENIsoN.

Who sings his praise, or who records his
efforts HIS situation is one Of exposure,
his life one Of peril The sunshine and
the storm he must brave alike; the one may
scorch with ms rays, the other beat with its
pitiless pelung; he cannot desert his post
and how faithfully his slernesl zeal of duty
has been rendered, is told by the sacrifice
Of life, yielded up here and there along the
mighty roads Of glisiening iron that track
our country from east to west.
The shrlIl whistle of the steam car, re-
yerberatng over the great city and through
the still air Of the village, suggests thoughts
Of returning friends or departing kindred,
OF our own lourneying, the march of sell
ence, the power Of commerce, of all, every
thing, save the patient engineer, to whose
skill and care commerce, love and life,
are much indebted for their success and
perpetuity.
We prepare merchandise for "a distant
mart, see IT safely confined within the dark
precincts Of the baggage car, wonder if the
train will arrive safely hear with delight
the following day that all is right, think the
cars have done finely, but never word of
the poor engineer. Not so with the trans
porlalion OF goods over the wide waters
then the vessel is seldom mentioned unless
coupled with the captains name he it is
that guides the bark to her destined port,
though the responsibility attaching to him,
il seems 10 us, is not as fearful or weighty
as that of the railroad engineer.
Who thinks of the engineer Reclining
OF the luxurious couches Of velvet that line
the apartments of the railroad car, the
pleasure-seeker, the man Of business, the
beautiful girl, the matron, are each iu,ent
upon the diversified thoughts pertaining to
their several anticipations. The sunlight
without and the sunlight within gladdens
the heart frozen with age or bounding with
youth. Bright villages and dark green
