Erposinga Parson.--A minister was
one Sabbath examining Snnday-school
catecfism before the congregation. The
usual question was put to the first girl, a
strapper, who usually assisted her father,
who was publican, in waiting upon
customers.
What is your name e.
No reply.
q What is your name y he repeated.
"None ofyour fun, Mr.. Minister" said
the girl "you know my name well
enough. Don't you say when you come
to our house on q night Bet bring me
some more ale r
The congregation forgetting the sacre-
dness Of the place, were in a broad grin,
and the parsen looked daggers.

Mfa7liblc Rules for Measuring Corn
in the Crib.-If measured in feet: 1st.
Shucked corn-Measure the length, width
and depth of the crib in feet; multiply
these three dimensions together and their
product by s; then cut off two figures to
the right those on the left will be 50
many barrels, and those cut off, so many
hundredths of barrel.
I'd. Unshucked Corn-Multiply the
three dimenions in feet, as in rule LIST,
and their product by %; cut off two
figures to the right, and the result will
be barrels and hundredths, as in rule
1st.
Sd. Shucked Corn-Take the dimen-
sions in inches and multiply them to-
gether; take onehalf of the product and
divide it by 2150, and you have the
bushels of shelled corn, which divide by
5 to reduce to barrels.
9th. Unshucked Corn-Multiply the
dimensions as in rule Sd, and the take of
one-third of the product, and divide it by
2150, the result will be as in rule Sd.
These rules have often been put to the
most critical test by the most thorough
as well as the most practical mathemat
icians Of the southwest, and the people
using them may rely upon their beins

A green looking customer observed 2
sign hanging over grocery store, read
ing thus: Wholesale and Retail Store"
He worked his way through the crowd
of ladies and gentlemen, until he got
facing one of the clerks, who was exhibi-
ting some fine sugar to a young lady,
when he broke out with:
"Say, Mister, who is boss herel"
"The proprietor has just stepped out,
sir ~
"Well be this retailing shop :" g
The young man hardly comprehending
greeny's thoughts, simply answered:
"Yes, sir, wholesale and retail store.
"Guess you understand your trade"
30, yes," replied the clerk, wrapping
up bundle for his lady customer, what
can / do for you." ~
"Well as the cold weather is coming
on, / thaught might as well come and
give you ajob." wv
II don't understand you, stranger"
replied the clerk, who began to think the
fellow was in the wrong box.
"Zacly so well, I'll tell you"
Explain what you mean, my friend"
said the clerk, as he saw him produce q
bundle from under his coat.
"Well, as / said before, the cold
weather's coming on, thought / mought
as we'll be fxin for it. Come mighty
near freezn' t'other winter, tell ye | did,
but"
"Stranger, | hope you will tell me
what you want, so may serve you, in
terrupted the clerk, seeing there were
number of customers waiting TO be
served, but what in fact, had almost for
COTTON their errands in the rich conversa-
ton between the clerk and his droll Gus
toner. 4B
| "Certainly, squire, certainly, always
do business in hurry, and just as quick
as the old master will let you, | want
you to retail these old shirts Let 'em
come down to about the knees, kase ]
don't wear any drawers !"
The effect may be imagined, but, a.
the novelists say, can't be described
The loud burst of laughter which follow
ed, served to convince the poor fellow ne
had committed himself and his long legs
put in motion at the rate of 2.40.

Not Dorm IN the BiHs.-The Balti-
more Dispatch recounts a scene which oc-
Cured at the Holiday street Theater, a
few evenings since, which was not in the
bills:
"A fine-looking young woman, in more
than the usual amplitude of crinoine, en-
tered with her beau, and was making her
way through the already well-flled seats
in the front row of the first circle, where
places had been reserved for them. TO
do so with all the freedom of feminine
Young America, she stepped upon the
seats, when, unfortunately, her hoops, or
rather the lower part of her skeleton
skirt caught upon the back of one OF the
seats as she swept by, and the fastening
about the waist parting, the whole con-
cern came down "by the run and as
she stepped forward and out of it, the
skeleton was left hanging in full view
upon the seat The change was astonish-
ing the full-blown belle at one moment,
the next, looked like lamppost with a
silk dress tied round it. For moment
the young lady was unconscious of the
accident. In another she saw the full ex-
tent of it, and blushing, sank into her
seat, and for the next half hour had un-
doubtedly the most brilliant complexion
in the audience.

GY The decaying influence of time and
the mutability of all earthly grandeur are
thus gloriously depicted
The temple Of Jerusalem passed away !;
and Of its magnifcence only few crumo-
ling, pilgrim kissed stones remain. Inc
Parthenon, the brightest gem upon the
zone Of Earth is now heap of ruins
the Tarpeian rock in Rome cabbage
garden, and the palaces of the Caesars
rope walk. The Pyramids themselves
these gigantic memorials of gigantic
are, are all fast fastening to decay. Ihe
Tiber, once so glorious is a small muddy
stream; the Ilyssus, once SO famous i
choked with weeds; and Olympus the
famed monument of the gods, is blact
hill, and the Acropolis forsaken.

OKOLONA, MISS, DECEMBER 9, 1853.

You are not going to hang the man, but

The Judge drew long breath and
blinked rapidly, but stood his ground

ed:
-'J-J-oe B-B-owers, do y-you t-take
Nancy H-Harkens for y-y-your wife, SO

This was tolerable effort, and Joe
nodded assent.
"N-N-Nancy Harkens, is now remains

Here the sheriff again interrupted the
Judge, reminding him Of rhe real business
of the evening.

after being set right, "d-d-do y-y-you t.
t-take J-Joe Blowers for husband, t.
to the best of your knowledge and BIB
belief, or do you not :"
"You can bet / will" answered the
light-hearted Nancy.
The Judge then took the hands Of the
happy couple and joined them, and
wound up the business as follows:
at now remains for this h-h-here &C
court to pronounce you, J-J-Joe Bowers,
and y-you, Nancy Harkens, man and

wipe the perspiration from his face), " m

prits !"
The company roared. Joe and Nancy
weakened. The sheriff was taken with
leaving. The Judge let himself out loose
in glass of whiskey. 1t was the great.
est wedding ever witnessed.

SELECTED POETRY,
THE OLD MAN DREAMS.
BY OLIVER WENDELL uoLME


. Tor an hour of youthful Joy
GIVE back my twentieth spring
I'd rather laugh bright-haired bov
Than reign grey yhaired king!
on with the wrinkled spoils of age!
Away with learning's crownt
Tear ont life's INSTRUMENTATION page.
And dash its trophies down.
One moment let my life-blood stream
From boyhood's fount of flame!
Give me one giddy, reeling dream
OF life, all love and f;ame
My listeaing angle heard the prayer,
And calmly smiling. said:
If but touch thy silvered hair,
Thy hasty wish has sped
+" But is there not'li-ssin thy track
To bid thee fondly stay,
While the swift seasons hurry back
To find the wished-for day %
All, truest soul of womankind
Without thee, what were life ?
One bliss | cannot leave behind;
III take-my precious-wite
The angle took a sapphire pen
And wrote in rainbow dew;
The man would be boy again,
And be a husband too
And there is nothing yet unsaid
Before the change appears
Refnember, all their Gifts have fled
With those dissolying years -
ny yes my memory would recall
My fond Ia;ernal joys
could not bear to leave them all:
III take-my girl-and boys
The smiling angel dropped his pen,-
Why this viii never do
The man would be a boy again,
And be father too
And so laughed,-my laughter woke
The household with its uoise,-
And wrote my dream, when morning broke
To please the gray -haird boys.

selves, aunt

are jesting."
Indeed, my dear Clara, | am not.
The one whom Mrs. Ashburton consid-

She says, and think justly, that she

her home attractive in tho oyo of a strans

she has promised to love, and honor and
obey, her husband and the father Of her
children"
Clara did not speak in reply; but when
we parted, The moistened cheek that
touched mine, convinced me the lesson
was taken home; and | have little doubt
when | next visit my nece, | shall find
her opinion changed as regards the guest
most deserving of honor.
