tinted his cheeks with the tell tale blush;
and he cherished the pleasing thoughts
that her look was beaming with love and
hope.
A little more than year had passed
fromtthe time George had left the home
of those he loved. 1t was the eve of an
other election, excitement ran high, and
Judge S. was again candidate
for Congress. For several weeks series
of ably written articles, had appeared in
the Judges papers They were addressed
to all classes-farmers, mechanics and la
borers. The original and vigorous style,
clear and convincing arguments, deep
and profound reasoning of these articles
invariably carried conviction to the par
ties to whom they were addressed. All
the newspapers of the party in that Con-
gressional District copied them, and cu>
riosity was on tip-toe to know their author,
as they were simply signed by two little
" stars" The election passed off and
Judge S. was elected by large
majority.
Late one night, while Ida and her fa-
ther were returning from party given in
honor of his election, they observed a
light in the printing Office. AS the es~
tablishment was usually closed at twilight
it appeared strange itshould be lit up at
that hour, SO the Judge determined to
learn the cause. Requesting his daugh-
ter to accompany him, they assembled the
stairs and entered the Office quickly. A
sight met their gaze which caused the
heart of ONE of them to beat violently
At the desk, short distance from the
door, sat George, fast asleep, with his
head resting on his arm. AS Ida's faith
er stepped forward to awake the sleeper
he observed several political essays lying
open on the desk, and a freshly written ar
ticle, with the mysterious " stars" attach
ed. The truth flashed upon the Judge
in moment. he was indebted to George
for his success ! He beckoned to Ida,
who came trembling at his side.-
Just then, they saw by the Pickering
lamp, smile pass over the slumberer's
face, and he muttered the words "dear
Ida," in a tender tone.
ooh, father u exclaimed the loving
girl affcctionately. throwing her arms
around her parents neck, " do let George
come home again it is surely no sin for
him to love mtl''
Awakened by the sound of Ida's voice,
George looked around confused, and as he
saw| Ida and her father, endeavored to hide
the manuscript. But the Judge stopped
him by saying, laughingly-
-" 1t won't do, young rascal, you are
fairly caught, found out-talk in your
sleep, will ye-ha hal But come here,
take Ida. and be happy. l know she
loves you ha ha ha -
George was bewildered and transported
he had been awakened from a pleasant
dream to bright reality.
Matters were soon explained, and the
warm hearted Judge, after blessing them
both, promised to see them married be-
fore he started to Washington.

Yankee Ingenuity.

In some of our towns we dom allow
smoking in the streets--in others we do
and where it is against law, it is So fine
in the general way. Well, Zeke went
down to Boston to do little chore of
business there, where this law was, only
he didn't know it. So as soon as he
gets out of the coach, he outs with his
case, takes cigar, lights it, and walks
on smoking like furnace fire. No soon
er was this done than up steps q consta-
Bile, and say.
"I'lI trouble you for two dollars for
smokin' again the Law on the Streets"
Zeke was quick as q wink on him: says
"smokin'-I warn't smokin."
ooh N.Y." said the constable, how
you talk man, 1 won't say you lie, cause i:
it amt polite, but it is the very way talk
when fb. Didn't l see you with my
own eyes?"
"No," says Zeke, "you didn't. Itdon't
always do to believe your own eyes they
can't be depended on more than other
peoples. never trust mine, l can as
sure you'll own / had cigar in my
mouth, but it was because like the fla.
vor Of tobacco, but not to smoke it. 1t
don't convene with the free and enlight-
ened citizen of our almighty nation to
break the law, seein' that he makes the
law himself, and is his own sovereign and
his own subject too. No, / warn't smo-
kin, and if you don't believe me, try this
cigar yourself, and see if it amt so. 1t
has got no fire in it"
TIE constable takes the cigar, puts it
in his own mug, and draws away, and
out comes the smoke like anything.
'I'll trouble you for two dollars Mr..
High Sherif's Representative for smokin'
in the streets. do you understand, my old
oon!''
The constable was taken all aback, he
was finely bit, and he asked" Stranger,
where was you raised %
"T To Canady line," says Zeke.
Well" says he, "you are credit to
your broughters up. Well, let the fine
drop we are about equael, Iguess. Let's
liquor ;" and he took him into bar and
treated him to mint julep. 1t was gen
orally considered great bite that, and
must say, 1 don't think it was bad-deu
you.

To be tarnshcd with such silly passion.
Gents don't run in dcbt-lot your friends, if
they can,
Have fine houses, feathers and flowers,
i ut unless they paid for, be moroof Il man
Than to envy thoir sun>hiny hours.
II IFrO 70
To spend your dollars and dimes YOU please
But mind you the man who his note has to pay,
Is the man whois never at asc.
Kind husbands; don't run in debt any more
twill fill your wifc's cup full of sorrow,
To know that your noighbor may call at your
door,
With bill You must settle tomorrow.
0, take my udvce-its good, it is true!
(But, lest you may some of you doubt it,)
III whisper rccrct, now seeing tits you
l have tried it and know all about it.
The chain ola debtor is heavy and cold,
Is links arc corrSOn and rust
Gild it o'cr you Wilt is never of gold
Then spurn it aside with disgust.
The man who's III debt is too often slave,
Though his heart may be honest and true
Can lie hold up his head, and look saucy and
brave,
When note he can't pay becomes due!
