ORIGIN OF A CURRENT PHASE" Doubt
less few persons are aware" wri es an Lii
nois correspondent, "that the current phrase,
Too much pork for a shjlLtng had its origin
in the experiences of one who, for Il quarter
of a century has been one of our best known
literary celebrities. 1t came Into existence
this wise: The gentleman in question, then
youth of twelve or fourteen was home pu-
pill with Rev. DR. Nj, of c., New
Hampshire On the Fourth of July the fes-
tivities of the day were to consist of fish
ing party on the Merr aok with dinner
in a grove on the rivers bank The dinner
was pre- ordained to consist of the fish caught
by the party, fried with slices of salt pork,
coupled with Il suitable addendum of punch
the popular beverage Of the times. The fish
ing of the day, as might have been eXpectet
was not oNer-successful, and the prendiil
honors were done with the pork and punch
When our young participant in the feast thus
abridged reached the door of his worthy pre-
ceptor, he was decidedly the worse for some
thing, as was manifest in his gait and utter
ance. Why, ~ exclaimed the aston
ished doctor, how could you get so excitedY
1t was the pork-the pork, sir-taken ON an
empty stomach But, n continued
the domino, alarmed on another score, have
you spent all your pocket money! oh
no, sir | only spent shilling; but-but,
sir, there WaS too much pork for a shilling

Two KINDS OF GGRLs.-There are two kinds
of girls one IS the kind that appears the best
abroad, the girls that are good for parties,
rides visits, balls, DC, and whose chief de-
light is in such things; the other is the kind
that appears best at home, and the girls that
are useful and cheerful in the dining
aud all the precincts of the home. They diff
fer widely in character One is often tor
ment at home the other a blessing. One Is
moth consuming everything about her (;
the other is sunbeam, inspiring life and
gladness all along her pathway, Now, it
does not necess riIy follow that there snail
be two classes of girls. The right education
will modify both a little, aud unite their char
acters in one.

A PATRIOTIC SENTMENT.-Col Orr, II Dem
ocratic member of Congress from South Car
olina and Speaker of the House of Represen-
tatives, il a recent speech at a barbecue
givin in his honor, uttered the following pa
triotic and beautiful sentiment:
"A cobbler in II few hours can destroy the
most architectural pile; to restore it in its
symmetry aud grandeur is the work of years
of palie. toll 10y master mechanics. 1t is
easier to pull down than to build up. If the
alternative was presented to the South, of
continuing in the Union as inferior to the
rights and privileges Of a common govern
ment, or to tdissolve the Union, we should
not hesitate in chosing the latter Neither
states nor individuals can look upon life as a
boon If it is to he spent in disgrace con
scious Of self degred tion. My ardent prayer
istthat no such alternative may ever come -
When this government is des royed, nciihe
you nor |, your children nor my children
will e|er live to see 50 good a government
reconstructed-a government that gives such
ample protection to all the rights of persons
and property at hOme and abroad, and re-
qnires 50 little from the citizen in return.
Let us, then, to-day resolve that we will
cordially cooperate with patriotic men in
all sections in maintaining the true princi
pies of the Constitution, and not only thereby
obviate the necessity of Revolution, but ad.
minister the government so Justly as to obit-
crate all the alienation and discJ,d that per-
wade this now prosperous and Lappy cOun-

PLUCK TO THE LAsT.n-Under the above caption
the Baton Rouge Advocate, of the 18th, relates the
subioined incident, which is more than ordinarily
pathetic:
Who would look to public hospital for ANYTHING
partaking of the lively and humorOus? But from
out the gloom and sorrow and suffering of such
place, with its surroundings of death and insignia
OF the grave, there sometimes proceeds CLEAN of
joviaity and eXhuberance Of spirit from the diving
couch not often met with in pIeasanter localities.
Inc fact was illustrated the other day in our CITY
Hospital, jolly fellow from one OF the Western
States. named, we believe, Ned Somebody was
carried to the hospital far gone with the pestence.
lie was a boatman-as most ali Western men who
become heroes of a story aTe-aud when placed upon
his bed he began to view the hospital and its inmates
from the standpoint Of bis calling
Ned took bis physic with great philosophy and
many running comments upon the looks and condi.
ton Of his teilowsuferers Cheer up old Teller =
says Ned, TO patient who was rapidly recovering /;
It's no use to drop your oar while the glJnneES' out
o water! He turned to another who didn't want
70 lake ms medicine with: Hello, partner you'll
spring leak there it you don't f0Ier the Capns
orders" Ned went on with these and similar reHec-
tons until his failing voice denoted that the icy
hnger OF death was upon him, and he even then
pointed to an adjoining bed, telling the nurse that
he'd better leave him and go to that man Who .
said Ned, appears to be id bad off and who had
better begin to cable up, if he don't want to float off
down the stream Poor Ned was the one lust then
floating down the stream down. down he went, and
was soon away ont on that boundless, unexplored
seal His last words were in reply to the officer who
asked him if he couldn't take the cooling drops held
in his hand. Yes, family responded the dying
fellow, | can take anything but-but-a auuil or a
anchor !--aaghiag that amt got a horn In, tenn
perance j"
And SO he went; and we doubt not he carried with
him as feeling heart to the sufferings of others, and
as genuine stock Of unsehshness, as rarely fails to
the lot Of man, He ought to have lived, but died
jolly and kindly, doubt not were his traits from
serene boyhood up to the hour of shutting off the
mortal coil
