Lazy club.


We like that idea of Society for the suppression
of unnecessary work in other words, lazy club
The world works too hard It makes work even
of its relaxation-a toll of its pleasures. Tranquil
endowment is a forgotten word. The status quo is
obsolete; everybody must kick up a fuss, whether
he wants to or not so as to keep from being run
over. All this may be progress; but Is 1t happ-
ness We think not 1t is toll, and weali'
ness for no adequate end.
Then let us have reasonably lazy" club to
discuss matters quietly, and without the constant
use of the words " Progress" g Young America :"
and the &c Nineteenth Century"
Over exertion being the great evil OF the age the
proDoed Society is we'll calculated to confer last
ing benefit upon posterity. 1t will amelorate their
condition ftv per cent 1t will learn them Chat Is,
the Youngsters who compose "pOsterity,) to take
things cooiy-to make haste slowly, and 8" wait for
the wagon" In fact, it will be great "lnstItu-
ton" At meeting of a newly Instituted assocla-
ton of this character, in town Down East" one
OF it's members was fined for running down the hill
upon which the main street is built, but, upon his
explaining that it would require more exerton "to
hold back than to let himself out" the fine re-
mitted Such an institution is much wanted, and
would be highly benevolent not to say beneficial in
its tendency We should like to join it as perma'
nent member, but unfortunately for US, we cannot
the best we can do to put out for the North for
week or two, and leave the world to wag its own
way fer while without the benefit of our sage
counses. SO here goes, if we can raise the funds
which doing rapidly, having collected thirty
four cents this morning. The fact is we feel lazy
and unable to work to advantage. The ideas come
into our head lame and knock kneed, and we are
too tired to sraighten them up. Politics are very
essentially bore. European matters are patched
up for the present Congress wont be in session fo
over three months, (and then look out for squalls,
and upon the whole, the newspaper world is yer,
stale, fat and Improbable. That is our opinion
