HYDE PARK VERMONT WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER H. 1866

A sharp point of ice made out into the
current for perhaps twenty feet. Upon
this we sprang and then Old Ben ex-
claimed:
keep me covered with your rifles boys
and l will save you yet. Shoot wolf or
two, and that will delay them little"
We did as he told us. A simultaneous
discharge, and two of our pursuers fell.
In moment their comrads were upon
them, and they were torn into hundred
pieces while yet alive. Old Ben was la
boring like an OK Thick and fast he
was tracing the blows, along where the ice
were on Joined to the main field, and soon
a lucky blow parted il. Again we dis.
charged our rifles, and then pushed with
all our might against the solid ice.
Slowly our ice raft moved out into the
stream, and to our great JOY we saw a
dark line of water between us and our en-.
emies. We gave shout of triumph
that caused the bowling mass scarce 9
dozen feet away to recede for a moment.
Don't crow, youngsters You ain
out of the woods yet said Old Ben anC
his words were true, for hardly had thu
shout died away before half dozen hun
CRY wolves sprung high in the air, ant
three Of them lighted among us, Will
the others, less fortunate, were founder
ing in the water.
"Shoot those on the bank, boys; II
care for these. shouted Old Ben, as wit
his axe uplifted, he dealt his blows RICH
and left aud in less time than it has ia
ken to chronicle it, our raft Was free fror
enemies, and floating CALAMITY out int
the open water, that, instead of our Dc
struction, had proved our salvation.
"You may shout now, boys, for we are SAFE
exclaimed Old Ben, setting the exampl
himself; and we sent up such shout Q
that lake never heard before, and cause
!, the wolves to again rush back in disma,
;, Those that had fallen into the water r.
gained the ice, only to be torn to piec,
4 by their companions. and by way of pa
ting salute, Frank and | sent voliey aft
a volley among them.
Z BY the means Of our snow shoes, v
v padded our raft out to the centre of ii
J. open space. and there remained throug
v the night, which, fortunately for us, W;
8 not very cold, listening to the disappoi
d ted howlings of our enemies. and in Il
d early morning light had the satisfactic
r of seeing them sliuk away until they We

FORTY YEARS AGO.

Children were taught by their parents
and Instructors true politeness, at home
and at school were taught to bow with re-
spect to the aged to say yes sir, no sir,
and TO do it cheerfully and pleasantly.
AT the table were taught to wait with pa.
thence till their seniors were served they,
we're taught to have their faces and hands
washed clean and every hair adjusted ia
its proper place They were also taught
when meeting an elder person on the.

respectful bow Oh how their counte.
nances would light up with -inexpressa.
BILE sweetness aud delight when their 20.
llteness was returned by gentle wave Of
the hand accompanied by some ready ap-
plause. Beth parties have been made tho
happier and cost nothing, now instead Of
being taught politeness, children are
alone in the streets. girls with their rag
babies, and boys with quid of tobacco,
or cigar, in their mouths; and if they
