exercise in their boyish years. Their very
games and amusements bear the stamp of
military character, and they are admitted by
all to be most skilful Shots Being Injured to
hardships and privations, they perform, with
out fatigue, and in high spirits, very long and
forced marches. They leap over wide bitches,
supporting themselves on their long rides, and
pass over precipices where bridges would Be
absolutely requisite for every other kind of
troops, and they climb the steepest rocks with
facility they also bear with the greatest pa
tience, hunger, thirst and every kind Of priva-
ton.
Arms, a small loaf of bread, a cheese, some
garlic, little brandy, an old garment and two
pair of sandals made of raw hide, form all the
equipage Of the Montenegrines. On their
march they do not seek any shelter from rain
or cold. In rainy weather the Montenegrine
wraps his head with the strookah-a shawl OF
coarse cloth-lies down on the ground where
he stood, and putting his rifle under him,
sleeps very comfortably"

How MUcH DID HE LEAvE!-The question

man that dies, and it was answered very hap
PLY by ClOots, who was executor upon the es-
tate Of the late Mr.. Snodgrass. His neighbor,
Mr.. Nailrod, was an exceedingly inquisitive
man, and it was his pride that he knew SO
much, almost Of the affairs Of people Of his
neighborhood, as they did themselves. But
Mr.. Snodgrass had never been communicative,
and all that he could CLEAN Of his circumstan-
ces was from the guesses and speculations Of
the outsiders. The day after his neighbor had
been put into the earth, Nailrod visited ClootS,
and with an expecting face, began TO question
him. Says he, Mr.. Cloots, if il is not inn
proper-I wouldn't wish 10 ask the question if
it is the least improper, nor expect you to an

Jealousy

In order to beget hatred it only seems nec4
path. They may be friends at first, but in a
very short time afterwards we are sure to find
them foes, the success Of the one being gall
and wOrmwood to the other Do you doubt
this! Then kok around you. Who are the
most unmerciful critics Of works Of art! Ar
lists. Who tomahawk incipient poets Po-
etasters. Moot but point on theology, and
you straightway have reverend doctors abus-
ing each other with heartiness that would
do credit to Billingsgate, and indicating, in
no disguised language the future destination
Of their compeers. Let medical practitioner
start a new theory, and his brethren are down
upon him. He is a quack-a rogue-an ass
an imposter. Even though the life of pa

tion with one who is disgrace to his order.
Better that Mrs. Jones should die uaaided
than that the noble faculty should be pro-

with real Andres Ferrara-let them fight it
out in the least act of Macbeth, and to mer-
al certainty one Of them will be pinked or
hideously slashed. Did you ever know a
reigning beauty who looked kindly on a young
debutante! If such a spectacle was ever
seen, you may be sure that there was mortal
venom beneath that smile. Men said that
lawyers, as being constantly pitted against
each other, are the least jealous Of all the pro-
fessionals, but we have heard Of such things
as systematic snubbing from the seniors. An
early chapter in the Book of Genesis is sug-
gestive of the reason. The first murder arose
from hatred engendered by jealousy, and jeal

Evansville to the Barbecue and home again
we are grati6ed to be able to say, not an &C.
cident occurred among the passengers, and
nothing got obstrepulus but the pumps of the
engine, which interfered little with the time
of the boats travels. A part Of the time she
was doing good trauel, and another part she
was in desperate trauail. The indomitable
energy of the captain, however, carried every
thing through triumphantly, and the boat
made money, which is more than steamboats,
generally are doing nowadays.

BOYS. in to-day's paper we publish an or

you who can read. to carefully pause; and
those of you so unfortunate as not to be

BILE, lust to read this excellent letter. We
begged it from the author, for you, as having
accidently heard it read, We thought it cen
tanned advice too practically beneficial to be
confined alone to the little boy to whom it
was addressed. Let Us here say, it was
written by a gentleman whose name is
known over the country but never yet, was
connected with wrong mean or vulgar. ac-
ton. The proudest men in the land might
we'll be proud to claim his acquaintance
Yet he forgets not that he is father, and
upon him in part rests the responsibility OF
moulding at least another soul. The letter is
written in an easy plain style, with language
much as possible adapted to the young mind
addressed. 1t only treats of matters calcula-
ted to be practical in boy 's'intercourse with
the world, taking it for granted that as the
boy is moulded thus will be the man. The
letter was not of course, intendedfor publ
cation.
One of the two boys alluded to in the let
ter, Is son of citizen Of Evansville. BY
the small acts Of attention shown a stranger,
as narrated in the letter, both of these boys
made warm friend of one whose friendship
is valuable, as rs have known. Through
him, these boys are now occupying response
BILE positions, and are already advancing,
with fair promise Of most fully carrying out
the good opinions formed of them by their
patron, by rising to high position in their
professions, and winning for themselves
eventually high characters among their fell
low men, for honor, integrity, and ability. 1t
is letter which should be published in every
paper in the land.
