Josh Billings on COurting.

CouRTIyG is a luxury, it is ise water, it is
the pla spell of the sole. Tie man who has
never courted has lived in vainj be has been
a blind man among landscapes he has been
a def man in the land Of hand-organs, and
by the side of murmuriug canals Courtin IL
/ like two little springs ov water that start out
! from under rock at the foot Of mountain,
and runs down hill side by side, singing and
dancing and scattering each other eddying
and frothing and haskading, now hiding TN
der the bank, now full of shadder, till byme-
by they Ine, and then tha go slow. am in
favor Of long courtin it gives the parties a
chance to find out each uther's trump cards.
It is good exercise. and is jist as innocent as
2 mer.no lambs.
! Courtin is like strawberries and cream
wants te be did slow, then you get the fla
vor. I nav seen folks get acquainted, fall in
Iuv, git married settle down and git tu work,
! in three weeks from date. This is jist the
wa sum folks larn trade-akounts for the
great lumber Of almighty mean mechanicks
and the poor jobs they turn out.
Perhaps it is best to if should state some
good advice to young men who are about to
court with q view to matrimony, as it was.
In the fust place, young men, you want to
git your system awl right, and then find
young woman who is wiIlin to be courted on
the square.
The next thing is TO ind out how old she
is, wich you can do by askin her, and she
viii sa she Is 10 years old, and this you will
find won't be far from out of the wa.
The rext best thing is to begin moderate;
sa onso every mite in the week fur the fust
six months, increasing the dose as the pa
shent seems tew require.
Its q fust rate way tn court the girls
mother a leetle on the start, for there Is one
thing a woman never despises, and that is a
Ieetle good courdng, if it is done on the
square.
After the fust year you will get acquainted
and will begin to like the biziness.
There is l thing always advise, and that
is not to swop iortygrafS oitner than onst in
every Is daze, unless you forget how the
gal looks.
Occasionally you want to look sorry and
draw in your wind as tho you had pain; this
this will set the girl to teezing you to find
out what ails you.
Evening meetings arc good thing to tend
It will keep your religion in tune, and if your
gal happens to be there, by accident, she can
ask you to go home with her.

WASHINGTON, May 29.-The Sunday

view before the President, who made
them a speech.

Good-bEe. old fellow Z,


Jimmy will never forget these words
or the quiet tone in which they we're ut
tered, They cut short his career as a
sculler. Immediately after they were
uttered Memo disappeared from his
range of vision, and in the words of John
Bunyan, He saw him no more" until
he reached the judges boat, which had
been reached about ninety seconds before
by his opponent.
The unknown received the belt with
out unmasking, then he rowed to Belle
Bogart's boat, and bowling low, inquired,
with a decided German accent, if she
was the young lady that had promised
the winner boquet.
She blushed, and said that he must
call at her house for it. In truth she
could not bear the idea of presenting it
publicly to Jimmy, and so had left It
home Memo bowed gravely, backed
water with one oar, pulled round with
the other, and went up the river, hum
ming, "Its a way We have, Old Harvard"
leaving behind him more curious people
than ever Peddlington contained before
Belle and large party of ladies and
club-boatmen returned to her house.
They all lamented that she, had set no
hour at which she would deliver the
boquet, for then they could all be spec
tators of the presentation.
Talking, wondering, arguing, they all
came tumultuously into Bellies parlOr,
where sat Frank Mitchell with his
whiskers cut off, and the champion belt
lying on the table.
There was a row and time. After an
interval spent in'short oongratulatory ad-
dresses, concerning his triumph and jim
my's defeat, the boatmen present began
to wonder where he had got his practice.
So he told the whole story.
"You remember, Miss Belle, once
wishing that some one would prevent
Mr. Doran from winning your bOquet p
Belle blushed little, and said yes.
Well the next morning early I was
walking about four miles up the river,
when ! saw dirty looking she'll boat in
front of little tavern. l went down to
look at her, and found tito be a genuine,
frst-class she'll The landlord told me
he had held it for two years as security
for an unpaid board bill. Then the idea
struck me of hiring the boat, practicing
up there, swearing the landlady and
landlord 20 secrecy, and Disgusting my
self on the day of the race so that no
one would know me if defeated My
friend Alf was in the secret, and assured
the other judges that l lived here. The
belt l am going to put up to be rowed
for by boat-club scullers-the boquet I
rather think I'll keep myself"
I don't mean to say that the events
have described made The match between
Belle and Frank They did not prevent
it, at any rate; for in six months after
the rescuing Of the boquet, the champion
sculler performed an operation which
faeetious called ringing the diving
belle" and as the story books say, they
lived happily ever afterward."

SINGLE SOULS,
BY ALE. A. sIGaIA.
THE RESCUE OF TILE BELLE

TIE boating mania had Just begun to
infect Peddington- when Frank Mitchell
hung up his legal sign in that sweet lit
tie town on the Hudson. One boat club
had been formed, and one single scull-
boat ordered
90 Mary" said Belle Bogart to Mary
Wilson, I've such a pleasant invitation
for you. The Pioneer Club have invited
YOU and me to go down to the Abbey in
the Phantom this afternoon. You
know the Pionecrs-ITarry Seymore, Lon
Paige, and that set belong to it. Did
You ever sail in a club boat? I never
did. Won't it be grand?'
Mary echoed this sentiment with the
same glowing cheek and eye
One or the other of these two young
persons was the handsomest Girl in Ped
dington. Ihaye never been able to make
uP my mind which one it was.
Just then young man passed them
It was our friend Frank Mitchell.
4 pair of remarkably pretty girls, "
was his mental comment.
Who is he?" was Mary's audible
| question. Belle did not know, of course.
Frank had only one friend in town.
This friend, the writer, had fortunately
for several persons named and to be nam
ed been smitten with the rowing fever.
Being naturally of a solitary turn, in
stead of joining a club he ordered single
scull boat. When it arrived he was ter
rifed by its width-or, rather, absence of
width-looked upon it as a floating cof-
fin; and was afraid to get into it.
He mentioned his fears in a disguised
state to Frank. Frank went with him to
view it.
"Why, she is wide for shell. There's
nothing crank about it, was his obsor-
]
"Perhaps you'd ike to get into her"
was his friends sarcastic reioinder, for he
believed that the Katydid" must be the
narrowest boat in the world
Not just now, for I've white trousers
on, " said Frank, laughing but this nf-
ternoOn I'll try her if you will let me"
So it was arranged that he should go
on trial-trip after dinner.
The day was a glorious one-neither
hot enough to make the rowero wish
themselves in Tophet as a cooling relief,
nor cold enough to freeze the lady pas
sengers. And the 'Phantom bounded
merrilv on her way" as the local editor
Of the Thumrinlic Gazette would have
put 1T In simple verify. she went along
at a tolerably good pace. considering that
she rocked very much because the men
dipped too deeply and caught an average
of a crab every four minutes.
However, everything was novel and
charming TO the young ladies. The
beautifully painted boat, the gay flags
and uniforms, the discipline, the time
kept by the oars (when not engaged in
crabing), the crabs themselves which
we're supposed to be part Of the manual
all delighted the girls. Their whole
former experience of boating consisted Of
having been tugGed about in a skih by
perspiring swivel oar-puller.
Belle Bogart never could keep still
when delighted.
She fdgeted, and wanted to get up, but
had no excuse. By and by the cOzswain
said, "There's the Abbey"
Then Belle arose-to see the Abbey
Of course. Then a desire came over her
an irresistible one-to stand upon the
seat. The boat was going very steadily
why not? Just at this moment the
cozswain sung out:

To-day visited an old lady, an old resi-
dent of this city, who seemed to enjoy the
privilege Of furnishing me with the early his
tory of our new President, Andrew John
son.
Andrews father was her fathers hostler at
the time of his birth, and the room occupied
by his parents was over the kitchen. The
lady (AIrs. Stuart declared that his father
and mother were honest and industrious.-
"And," said she, becoming very eloquent.
" you know an honest man is the noblest
work of God" She stated that, on return
ing from ball given by her neighbors in
honor Of her marriage, the servants met her
at the door with the news that Polly" (An-
drew's mother) had baby. She ran up
stairs, placed her hand upon the brow of the
newborn, asserting the right to name it,
thereupon proclaimed it Andrew McDon-
aid His father said no, not Mcdonald;
"agreei, soid she, and thus we have simply
"AEDREw JoHNseS,"
The next remarkable incident was his es-
cape, during apprenticeship, from Mr. Letch-
ford, tailor, who offered reward of i've
cents for Andy's return to service,
The old lady expressed her pleasure at his
success in life, and desired me to remind him
Of her, and also begged that ask favor of
him in her behalf, namely; That he would
relieve her grandson from Point Lookout
