A plain unettered man from the back

Tuscaloosa, and on the Sabbath went ear y
to church. lie selected seat in a conve
nient slip, and waited patiently the assem-
bling of the congregation. The services
commenced Presently the music of a
full toned organ fell upon his astonished
ear; he had never heard ol.e before. At
tho same time a gontloman who owned
the slip came up the aisle, with lady
leaning upon his arm. As he approached
the door Of the slip, he motioned to give
place to the Esdy. This movement the
couutryman did not comprehend, aud from
the situation of the lady, associated as it
was in lis mind with the music, he imme-
diately concluded that a cotillion or a
French contra dance, or somo other dance
was intended. Rising partly from his
seat, he said +" Excuse me, sir; excuse me
if you please can't dance"

A Love AFFAlR.-At Pixies Peak. re-
Gently, young man fell in love with la
dy, and some wags, knowing it, commen-
cen correspondence in her name. This
led to plan for an elopement and mar
riage, which came off, boy persona,ing
the young lady. After the bride and
groom had retired to their room, the en-.
ragged father-represented by one of the
wags-and his friends rushed in, and n
bloodless skirmisb ensusd, which frighten-
ed the groom to such an extent that he
tied, minus the greater portion of his
clothing. The next dag he consulted
lawyer about a writ for the recovery of
his wife, and could hardly believe that the
affair was hoax.

SVfnlIaiing.

Almost every day in summer one hears
or reads Of deaths by drowning. which
could not have occurred if the victims had
known how to swim. 1t is strange that
three fourths of the civilized world should
be ignorant of an art so important to the
personal safety of every human being, as
that of swimming, seeing that it is so ca
silly acquired, and that its practice is con-
ducive to health and enjoyment. Yet
such is the fact Mariners, it might be
supposed, would be experts in the exer
else, and yet the proportion of strong
swimming among sailors is said to be
smaller than among landsmen. Ladies,
especially American and English ladies,
are generally as helpless in the water, as
newborn babies and considering how
fond our bellies are Of steamboat excur-
sions, water picnics aud sailing parties,
their neglect of this branch of physical ed
ncation is very uawise. Loyal and chiv
alrous squires Of danes" are, of course,
expected to attempt the rescue Of their
charges at all hazards, in case of ship or
boatwreck; but many cavaliers ale inca
pable Of even saving themselves in
such dilemmas, and DE capabes are some
times more mindful of the first law of ma
ture than of the cries of sinking beauty
The truth is, that it is no easy task, even
for a powerful swimmer, to buoy up a
frightened woman in the water. Her
dress, if she is moderately gifted with
presence Of mind, will for a while help to
sustain her on the surface, but when the
garments are once saturated, they drag
her downward like bags of ballast. Then
the ladies are apt to shrek on such occa>
sions and as each expulsion of air from
the lungs is followed by submersion, du-
ring which a considerable quantity of wa
ter is swallowed, the burden upon tie
! swimmer who attempts a rescue, becomes
heavier at every stroke. 1t is, therefore,
very desirable, on many accounts, that the
feebIer sex should learn to swim. This is
An acc of feminine self reliance We are told
certainly no man will question the right
Of every woman to acquire an art which
will enable to rel y upon her own skill and
energy for the safety Of her own life. If
ladies were taught to swim and dive, brave
and buoyant denoiselles might occasion
ally snatch their lovers from "watery
grave" and what triumph for the
sroHg minded sisterhood that would be-.
If for example, at the cry of" a man over
board" a beautiful vision in crinoline
should leap from the deck, and drag up
his "drowned honor by the locks how
all christehdom would ring with the
achievement.
In Paris, and in many of the cities of
Germany there are women's swimming
schools" " where ladies are taught the use
Of their limbs in the water. Why should
we not have such institutions here!

T h e T o Villa 6 e 8

Over the river on the hill
Lie;h village quiet and still;
All around it the forest trees
Shiver and whisper in the breeze
Over it sailing shadows 20
OF soaring hawk and screaming crow,
And mountain grasses low and sweet
Crow in the middle Of ever! street.
Over the river under the bill
Another village listh still
There see in the cloudy night
Twi.Llipr iars of household light,
Fires that . from the smiths door,
Mi.ts that curl on the river shore
Aud in the roads no grasses grow
For the wheels that hasten to and fro.
In that village on the bill
Never is sound Of smithy or mill;
The houses are thatched with grass and
hoWers,
Never clock to toll the hours;
The marble doors are always shut,
You cannot enter in hall or hut;
All the villagers lie asleep;
Never a grain to SOW or reap;
Never in dreams to moan or sigh
Silent and idle, and low they lie.
In that village under the hill,
When the night is starry and still
Many a weary soul in prayer
Looks to the other village there,
And weeping aud sighing, longs TO 90
Up to that home from this below;
Long, TO sleep in the forest Wild,
Whittier have vanished wife and child,
And heareth, praying, this answer fall
!" Patience that village shall hold ye all.
