Country Boys.

Country boys often feel that their lot is q
hard one. They see city-bred youngsters
on their travels and their sprees, at the age
of fourteen vcritablc young gentlemen, with
finished exterior, cigar, and a cane The
young farmer. at the same age, finds him.
self with a hoe in hand, and cheap straw
, hat on his head, sweating among the hills oil
corn. He :s frequently envious Of his city
brother-whisking prss.. him in the cars, with
kid gloves, delicate ringlets, a,,,aa plenty OF
money in his pocket. .-...<
Mind your corn, boy; hoe it out clean,
keep steadily to the labor you have in hand,
do it well, and in time your good days will
come too. If you find farming is not suited
to your taste, or your strength, or circum-
stances; if you like mechanism better, or
have capacity for busincss--whateve you
eventually engage in, it is all the same, you
have begun right. The city blades have be-
gun wrong; and in due time you will see it.
Their fathers and mothers will in the end, see
it, too Do not feel envious Of the pleasures
a hot-house man enjoys, but remember, not
IN malicious, but sober spirit, that such
plants wither early. BY the time you have
acquired fixed habits ofindustry, and acquir-
ed a corresponding perfection Of mind and
body, your deicately reared contemporary Of
the town begins to feel the facilitating effects
of idleness and dissipation. He is not alone
to blame for weak body and profitlcss
mind; it is the result Of system, but he can
not escape from its effects; these he must en-
dure for himself in his own person. His
father may be professional man, or a mer-
chant, or may be merely rich the chances
are fifty against one, that the son win not re.
place his father. Such is the result of we'll
settled experience; business falls into the
hands Of those who are most competent; it
does not descend to heirs; it is the country
boys after al, who do the city business. OBJ
serving men have often stated this fact and
inquire into the origin Of Cleveland, Boston,
or New York, you will find it to be So All
external circumstances are in favor Of the son
or the clerk succeeding to the trade of the old
firm, but the son seldom, almost never, dies
in the position of a partner of the house
Why is it? Simply because habitual indus
try is wanting-habitua Incidence is not
wanting. With all the external odds against
it, the country furnishes the cities their prin-
cipal business men. If intelligent, faithful,
and persevering. and above all, cheerful and
contented, the chances are that the lad with
the hoe will eventually do the business Of the
father of the lad in gloves, who is now luxu.

evening Of the masquerade the Judge put it
on, covered himself with light cloak, and
sailed forth. A violent wind prevailed, and
one Of the gusts took the Judges cloak of

to recover it, and at the same time watch
man sprang for him. The Judge got his
cloak, however, before the watchinan got
him and started on fast run, hotly pursued
by the watchman. The Judge saw it all.
The watchman mistook him for regular es-
capped convict If caught, it would be un-
pleasant The watchman saw it oil, too.

and perhaps mako something by it. The
race became exciting. Fortunately for the
Judge, ii was On back street. The race
continued Tho watchman was reinforced
by another watchman and both pursued the
Judge at furious pace. The Judge finally
yielded, and made the watcmen, alter consid

of prevarication, he thus proceeded: q ask
you, sir, as seaman, on your oath, would
matters have gone the arrong way with the
Prince Of Wales, had there been proper

The absurdity Of this question, added to
the pompous declamatory tone in which it
was delivered, excited so much noise and
mirth among the nautical portion of the audi

Upon the restoration of order, and the repe-
