A Al,NsEk SmoKHAkER--"Y You hant no oc-
casion for jcr nor nothin, I sposc said Il
jolly son of ST. Crispn from the land of wood
en nutmcgs, as lac entered a shoe establish
mcnt with his kit nicely done up in his apron
Wonder il ! hain't," was the reply of the
boss. "Why, should like a dozen il could
get 'cm; but what kind of shoe can YOU
makcf'
go, rs the matter o. that" said the snob.
~ reckon as how can make decent SOFT of
craft"
Spread your kit, then" said the boss
"l'll give YOU pair to try, and if your work
suits me, can give you a steady set of work"
Crispin was soon ha,nmering and whistling
away rs happy as clam NJ high water, and
the boss wSs called away on Some business
which detained him two or three hours
Meanwhile tho tramping jer had produced n
thing which bore some faint resemblance 10 a
shoe, and feeling somewhat ashamed of it, hid
IL in pile of leather chips that lay on tho
floor, and proceeded To make another, which
lac had barely time to finish when lis employ
CT entered and began 10 examine t.
Look here, mister" SAID he, 81 guess you
needn't make the natc to this il Is the great
est botch that ever was made in my shop,
that's fact"
"Prhaps you'd like to bet triHc on that"
said the snob.
Bet" responded the boss, "why, I'll bet
ten dollar bill against n hand of tobacco,
that there never was a shoe made in this shop
half so bad ns this"
"Donc," said Crispin, at the same time
casting a sly wink at his shop.matcs; "but
stop, let me SEQ il I've SO much Of the weed
with me. oh, yes, here's whole hand Of
Cayondish, and laying il on the cutting board,
he vcnturcd TO suggest the propriety Of hnv.
ing the suet skin laid alongside of Il, which
was no sooner done than he proceeded to
draw from its hiding place the other shoe.
Here boss" said he, "you must decide
the bet say which Of the two shoes is tho
worst"
"Well guess I'm fairly sucked in this
time" replied tho boss, pushing the Caven-
dish and shinplastcr toward the rightfll own
CT, and threw nincpence to the youngest ap-
prentice. The boy needed no further instruc
ton as to his duty, but was oil in the twinkle
of bcdpost, and soon returned with a quart
of black-strap. Aftcr all hands had sufficient
ly rcgalcd themselves, the shrcwd Yankee put
his sticks together, and bidding the boss a
hearty goodbye, started again on u tramp, very
well satisfied with his forenoon's work.

Tng MAN AND THE NiSE.---In one Of the ear
ly years after the creation Of tho world, man
began to plant Il vine, and Satan saw II and
drew near.
"What plantest thou, SON Of tho earth ~
said the prince of demons
- vine, replied the man.
What are tho properties of this trcet'
"Oh, its fruit is pleasant to look Mt and de-
lcious to the taste from il isprodacod liquid
which fills the heart with JOY"
swell, since wine makes glad the heart Of
man, will help thee plant this trcc'
So saying the demon took u lamb and slew
1t, then q lion, then an ape, and last Of all q
pig, killing each in succession, and moistening
tho roots of the vine with the blood. M
Thence it has happened ever since, that
when man drinks small portion Of vino
he becomes gentle and carcssipg ~ q lamb;
after n little more, strong and bold as livn;
when he takes still more, he resembles an ape
in his folly, and absurd and mischieyous ac-
tons; but when he has swallowed the liquid
TO excess, ho is likoa pig wallowing in tho
mire.

Bic BRlNDLr. - In Nashville, many wears
ago, there resided u gentleman of great hos
pitality, large fortune, and, though nnetluca.
ted, possessed OF hard knotty sense Col
w. had been elected To the Legislature, and
had been also judge of the county court.
| His elevation, however, had made him some
| what pompous, and he became very fond oi
using big words. On his farm he had very
large and mischieyous OK, called "Big Drin.
die" which frequently broke down his neigh
bors fences and committed other deprctations
much to the Coloncl's annoyance.
One morning after breakfast, in presence OF
some gentlemen who had staid with him over
night, and who were now on their way to
town, he called TO his ovcrsccr aud said to him.
Mr. Allen. desire you to iinpound Big
Brindlc, in order that may hear no more ami
madversons on his eternal deprcdations."
Allen bowed and walked OH sorcly puzzled
to know what the Colonel meant So after
the Colonel left for town, he went TO his wife
and asked her what Col w. meant 10y telling
him TO " impound the on"
"Why," said she, the Colone, meant 10
tell YOU to put him in pen"

dist minister who was travelling on horse

stopped one noonon sultry summers day
Mt cottage by the roadside aud requested
some refreshment for himself and beast.
This was readily granted by the worthy
New England dame. so the parson dismout-
ed, and having seen his horse well cared for
entered the cottage and partook Of the re-
freshment which was checrfully placed
before him. For some time past there had
been no rain. and the country seemed lite
rally parched up. The minister entered in
to conversation with the old lady, and re-
marked about the dryness of the season.
T" Yes." she replied ..,sunless we have rain

The worthy divine informed her that he

ingly knelt down and prayed fervently that
the gates of Heaven might be opened
that showers might descend and refresh
the earth. He then arose from his knees.
and having kindly thanked his hostess. bade
her good day. mounted his horse and de-
parted. But he had not been gone more
than an hour when the clouds began to
gather and tremendous shower of hail
and rain descended. and with such force
as to wash the contents of the old lady's

said she that is always the way with

A Coon ONE. The last number of the
Southern Era gives the following -
"We have just read an account of
deer hunt in which. strange 10 tell. the
deer killed the hunter. II Is related Of
Daniel Boon, the great Kentucky hunter,
that when he was young man he went
out hunting deer at night. accompanied
by young companion. who bore in his
hand torch light. When this light Is
seen by the gentle deer, instead Of being
frightened, it attracts them and lures them
on to their doom. They draw near. aud
the hunter. beholding their clear, shining
eyes, shoots them down. On the evening
in question. after passing some distance
through the forest, young Boon's compan-
ion indicated 10 him that dtor was pisi.
bic. Boone advanced, saw the eyes, and
raised his unerring rifle, and was about 20
fire, when it occurred to him that those
were not the eyes of deer. lie lowered
his gun and the object fed, and Boone
Immediately started in pursuit. He chased
it to the house Of its father, when il proved
to be handsome young girl The game
was up. Dams rifle never sent bail TO
the heart of 'varmit' with more unerr.
/ ing and fatal certainty than did those
( bright eyes send shaft TO his. The bold
backwoodsman pressed his suit, and tho
maiden allowed herself 10 be wooed and
won."

Folly OF AxeER.-If provocation has
been offered you, before you fy into n
passion remember the old proverb, [" II
thou art vexed, thou wilt have two trou-
bles." A wise man observed. III am
angry 1 punish myself for the faults Of an.
other" and there is much good sense in
the remark. / doubt whether even the
most irritable man really enjoys Ct Of
anger. It Is at best painful passion.
In fact. the literal meaning of the word
anger. is pain, anguish, grief, &o. An ir-
ritable man has been happily compared 20
a hedgehog rolled up the wrong way, tor
menting himself with his priekles." The
sting of single it OF passion sometime
lasts for years.
