AND MI HEART roo.-A few year: ago 4
when it was the custom for large boys and
large girls to attend district schools, and when
hag-lla,ion were more common in schools than
al the present time, an incident took place in
neighboring town, which is worth recording az
reminiseenee Of school-bay days.
One If tie largest, pumpest, and fairest girls
In school happened to violate one Of the teach
er rules. The mas'er, prompt, energetic
fellow of Twenty-Five, stonce summoned her
into the middle of the floor, and, as is usual in
such eases, the business Of the whole school
ceased, and the attention Of every scholar was
directed to the girl, who, il was expected, vas
to receive severe punishment Alter interroqat-
ing the girl a IL " moments, the master took
from his desk huge rJler, such we seldom
see nowadays, and commanded the girl to hold
out her hand. Size hestaed, when the master,
in blaze Of passion, Numbered ont, Will you
gise me your hand :" Yes, sir. anc my heayt
too" promptly replied the girl, at this time
stretching forth her hand TO the master, and
eyeing him with cunn,rg look. A dcathly
silence rcigned for a moment in the school room
= a moist spot was seen to gIisen in the mssd
ter's eye-the rule was laid upon the desk, and
the blnshng CIR: was requested 20 take her
seat, but to remain after the school ,oas dis.
MISSED In three weeks after the school was
finished, the school master and the girl were
married Palmer Journal.

SENATOR DOUGLAS ON NEBRASKA


We have irst rcevrd copy nf Senator
Douglas last speech upon the "N-hr'ska k'n-

ton of the prime Plies of the B,ll--the m"st i'm
por'ant OF which, is the right of self govern
ment and a triumphant refuration of the thou
sand and one fabricatinns and ISLANDERS perpetra
ted upon it and The Senator. Mr. Douglas met
every objection urged 70 the measure with a
directness and force, which extored the admi-
ration and praise Of even the sagacious states
man aud wiley politician Seward. and dealt
such frequent and heavy blows upon Chase,

from the Senate Chamber Tne fanatics of
