And go to work and advertise"

BUYING A JEwsHARr.-We were recent
ly much amused at the conduct of rural
chap, who was trying on one Of those An
cient and highly respected musical instru.
ments, jewsharp. He was . mammoth
specimen Of the race Of Adam. He had
very thick fingers and wide hands and .
noble old mouth. His ears had apparently
been set back to give it more room. The
teeth were few and scattering, and no two
of them could by any possibility be pre-
vailed upon to meet. He was giving his
whole soul to the business. He had Sc
rious time Of getting his molars and incis,
ors to bear upon the instrument, but at
length he accomplished the feat, making =
grimmace in the mean time that would
have frightened a dorg. He struck in
wildly with his left and generally hit tho
thumb of his right hand. which did not
appear to respond with any sort Of music,
bu: at length stray lick encountered the
tongue Of the harp, and noise resembling
the buzz Of bundle bee resulted. The
chap was delighted and turning to the shop
owner he observed. Bully I'll buy
that air thing. "There hain't no nicer
music n or a jewsharp, if feller only node
some chewns!' He departed delighted
with his purchase. sc.-Lansing Journal. '7

The vice President.
In the first news of the Inauguration pro-
cesdings, vague hints were embodied that
the Vice President elect, Andrew johnson,
ws in some manner unfit for the prominent
part he was to play in the ceremonies
Filler statements put it beyond doubt that
the Vice President was very grossly intoxi.
caied at the time.
1t might be agreeable to his political
friends to walk backward with averted gaze
aud hide his shame, and such apparently is
the effort of some of them, but unfortunate.
ly that which transpired in the face Of the
representatives Of our own country and Of
tts whole civilized world beside, is not sus.
ceptible of being so treated. 1t must be
condemned rs it deserves; silence, in the
circumstances, is endorsement.
The Cincinnati Gazette, one Of the most
loyal papers in the country, speaks with no
baed breath on the subject 1t says: 1--WE
have to discuss it as public calamity, and
as national insult and disgrace which do.
mands relief. Mr.. johnson should at once
resign the place he has SO dishonored, and
ia which he can never have the respect Of
any American citizen" 1t adds. "Mr.
Johnson made similar exhibition Of him.
self here," on his way to the Capitol. The
New York Commercial Adcertiser, also a
republican paper, speaks with equal sever
Ii ity. The Chicago journal has homily
against drunkenness in high places, no
doubt inspired by this event, though no
names are mentioned. And we presume
other republican papers have. treated the
m,tter as it deserves, thoughtheir remarks
may have escaped our attention.
The Democratic papers, of course, are
F, full Of it, and uniformly treat it in parti.
san spirit. This is not the best view they
can take Of it, as unfortunately they arc
by no means free from reproach in this re-
spect. In times of great public turmoil,
like the present, such men, for Offices COM
paratively unimportant in their relations to
the practical interests of the people, may
float to the surface and drift into high places,
without any party being justly responsible.
Had the least suspicion been entertained by
the Baltimore Convention, or by the sepub-
lican voters after the convention, that this
gentleman was capable Of such an exhibi-
ton of himself, we may say safely that the
opportunity would never have been afforded
him. 1t is one of the unfortunate develop
ments of q condition Of great national ex-
element and strong concentration of the
public gaze on space within the crcum'
ference of which this Office did not neces.
sarily come.
II the Vice President was unable to con.
troll himself ON this most important occa
sion Of his life, and in the tender relation
of himself to the people and to the world
we can imagine no condition in which he
could be depended on to control himself
and therefore the demand Of the Cincinnati
Gazette should be so swelled by the popular

MY ANGEL NAME. i.

In the land where am going
When my earthly life is Ger,
When the tired hands cease their striving,
And the tired heart aches no more
In that land of life and beauty,
Where no shadow ever came
To o'ercloud the perfect glory,
What shall be my Angel name!
When the spirits who await me,
Meet me at my entering in,
With what name of love and music
Will their welcoming begin!
Not the one 70 dmmed with earth-stain,
Linked with thoughts Of grief and pain,
No-the name that mortal gave me
Will not be my Angel name.
I have heard 1t all too often
Uttered by unloving lips;
Earthly care, and sin, and sorrow,
Dim il with their dark eclipse
shall change ii like q garment
When leave this mortal frame,
When at life's immortal baptism
shall have another name.
For the Angels will not call mo
By the name have on earth;
They will speak a holier language
Where have my holier birthI
Syllabled in heavenly music, am.--
Sweeter far than earth may claim,
Very gentle, pure, and tender
Such will be my Angel name.
1t hath thrilled my spirit often
In the holest of my dreams;
But its beauty fingers with me
Only like the morning beams.
Weary Of the jarring discord
Which the lips Of mortals frame,
When shall with joy and rapture
Answer to my Angel name!
