An Amusing Scene.

The graduates of Yale College have queer
custom of coming back, after graduation, and
presenting silver cup to the first married grad
uate who can produce his wife and baby in sup
port of his pretensions to being the leader in the
domestic line. The New Haven correspondent
of the New York Tribune gives the following ac-
count of the presentation by the class of ga to
class-mate who was the first to win the honors
of edlock and paternity:
If this odd notion is not yet peculiar to Yale,
it must be at least should think, peculiar to
America. 1t certainly has an air of originality
that gives it decided relish. We slowly
pushed up into the upper room, where we found
the class of GA seated about the tables ranged
along two sides and across the upper end of the
room, while the company found seats in plenty
ON settees ranged between these tables and the
wall. Then the gallery at the opposite end was
filed, and the benches were then brought and
placed across the open square, and when all were
seated, it would have been hard to find anywhere
a brighter or more cheerful audience than this,
made up almost entirely of young men and
young women, with younger boys and girls. All
at once there clapping of hands, and light
bursts of laughter, and the audience rose to its
feet as the young husband and his wife, and the
nurse carrying the baby, and the escort OF TRENDS
came in and passed to the seats at Ine upper Gnu
of the hall. The husband and father, Rev. wal
ter W Pattershall, has reason to be proud OF the
baby and its mother; it was pretty to see the Ia
VS. graceful, unaffected way of taking her hon
ors, and pretty to watch the little baby of ten
months acting before these two or three hundred
people as unconsciously as if he was in his own
nursery. To see him take the cup, which was
almost as big himself into his hand aud put
it right away to his mouth, and then look up
and crow out the most unintelligible thanks to
the gentlemen that gave it to him, and then take
another drink, and then flourish it in the air to
the extent that it looked every minute as if he
were going to throw it over his head and then
to the stolid way in which he took the three
cheers for the baby, and the three cheers for the
father, and the three for the family, never once
winking, but throwing in tiger in the shape
of usty crow at the end of every battery, and
then getting ready for the next by taking q long
pull at his cup all this was wonder to behold.
If he understood the speaking he must have
found it very good indeed. He listened as ie he
understood it, and sat straight up in his nurses
lap, while Mr.. Whitney poured out, with the
gravest face in the world, his excellent jokes and
puns when Mr.. Ankel, with admirable tact and
delicacy sent ell of US outsiders home begging
us to escort the baby, who, the class thought,
ought by this time, it being then one O'Clock, to
be in bed. Master Fred. submitted to be carried
off with the best grace in the world, and bade us
all good night with another flourish of the cup
and the merrest succession of crows that ever
baby gave.

Mas. LINCOLN AND THE CLERK.-A New York
correspondent of the Boston Post relates the fol-
lowing -"Another incident, illustrative of char
acter. has just occurred to me. One day Mrs. L.
drove up. or was driving up in front of Genin s
store, under the st. Nicholas, and leaning out
of the carriage, she beckoned to one of the
clerks who was speaking to friend at the door,
to 90 to her. He knew her very we'll, but took
no notice of her motions. She beckoned again
and again, but he did not go near her. Finally
another lady who was in the carriage, stepped
ont. and walking up to him, asked him if he
knew who that lady (Nrs. H. was. He replied
somewhat indifferently, that he did not care.
why" said she, hridling up, I" that is Mrs.
Lincoln, and she wants you to wait on her."
don't know any difference between Mrs. Lincoln
and the wife of a mechanic" said the clerk
:. IF she will come into the store will attend to
her. but am not employed to wait on people in
the street. A complaint to Mr.. Genin followed,
as a matter of course, but the clerk did not lose

p" hat shall ask for thee, wish for thee, sweet!
Skies that are peaceful and calm!
Seas that are stormless, and winds that are soft
As the low breath of psalm!
NO, as love thee, ask not that life
Be from all bitterness free;
Something of sweetness and something of strife,
Dear one, is better for thee.
May the kind angels who watch DER the good,
Guide thy dear feet they roam;
And in the land that is better than this,
Give thee forever home.
Still, would ask for thee, out of my love,
More of the sunshine than storm,
With but enough Of life's sorrow and pain
To keep thy heart tender and warm;
Faith to look upward in gladness or gloom,
Hope mid the direst defeat
Firmness in trial. and patience in pain
These would ask for thee, sweet
This, most of all. would / ask for thee, sweet,
Grace to be patient and strong
Meekness to bear all thy crosses and care,
Courage to battle with wrong
May the kind angels, who watch DER the good,
Guide thy dear feet as they roam;
And in the land that Is better than this,
Give thee forever u home.

THE FLAG STILL IN THE HANDS OF LOYAL MEN.-
Referring to the result of the November cleo
tions, the editor of the Marysville appeal says !:
"We might have done better in New York and
New Jersey, but quite as we'll as we expected,
considering the prejudces raised against the
party by the negro suffrage question; with ex-
else and Sunday laws, both tending to disrupt
the organization, and keep down enthusiasm
with the financial question bearing heavily upon
the pocket with foe active, vigilant, and
hopeful from unexpected success in October
With all these advantages against U.S. and moth
ing but stern will to be true to the principles
of the Union party to nerve loyal men, it is evi-
dent we have done we'll, and Union men nav nave
cause to rejoice. The Copperheads and traitors :;
highly elated and inspired by our deiea' ,,a 10
California, the Union detection in Ohio' anu aat
npon their backs again. The loyal masses are
firm and true to the great Union party.

A PLAIN STATEMEYT.-Did any of our delin-
quent subscribers-for we have some-ever think
of this Pc What would you think of farmer
who had raised thousand bushels of wheat,
and who should sell it to thousand different
persons scattered all over the State and agree
to wait year for his pay from each of them,
and if one half of them did not pay at the end
of the year, he should give them another bushel
and agree to wait another year for his pay, and
thus 90 on year after year? How long would
such farmer escape bankruptcy? Probably
not very much longer than publishers of news
papers who follow such practices. 1t costs the
editor of a weekly newspaper as much to supply
thousand subscribers for year, as it costs
a farmer to raise thousand bushels of wheat
The farmer sells his grain in bulk. Newspapers
are sold to a thousand different persons living in
different towns in the county, and different
counties in the State, and he must wait until
the end of the year before he can get payment,
and then he depends wholly upon the honesty
and responsibility of the subscribers. 1t will
not pay him to go or send around the county or
State to collect his dues, as the amount owing
by each man is small, yet it makes large sum
in the aggregate"

How THE "FAsT You've MAN " GOES TO Bed
Our readers have been told how young lady goes
to bed, and it is well enough that they should
know the procedure on the part of the " fast
young man." Here it is as told by one who
watched the operation
Dismissing his fudded companion of the eve
ming at the street door, Master George performed
the task of ascending the two flights OF stairs
leading to his own room and noselessly as the
weakness of his knees would admit, and without
other assistance than that of his own unsteady
fingers grasping along the walls. Upon reach
ing the room, the coat was removed and flung At
the back of the nearest chair the vest was
handled more carefully, as the pockets contained
his watch, but the pantaloons came Off with n
jerk.
After filling and lighting his pipe he proceed
ed with the preliminaries. Some recent pur-
chases were taken from coat pocket and part
placed upon the mantel, and the balance slowed
away in a trunk, to be used as circumstances
might require. With much tugging, growing
and swearing the boots were removed, and the
last one being unusually troublesome, received
an impetus from the foot that sent it flying to
the furthermost corner. Removing pair Of
| socks (that should have been in the washwo-
mans tub) an earnest and protracted inspec-
ton of the feet ensued, the young man in
dulging in speculations as to whether those
@ blasted corns would prevent his appearing IN
% them new boots at that " little gathering to-
morrow night" The delicate little paper collar
| (size imnaterial) was hastily torn off, and being
soiled on both sides from being turned was dis
dainfully tossed towards the fireplace, and the
neck-tie flung to the foot of the bed
The usual slow progress of removing the shirt
was ignored on this occasion: several impatient
jerks, and then with sudden stretch upward
with the bony arms, off went buttons, rip went
muslin, and the angular shoulders of the wearer
" rose in unrestricted freedom" The 90 snowy"
night shirt was then drawn over the head, and
the delicate cotton tape binding and
graceful folds of brown canton flannel left to
accommodate themselves to circumstances.
"a puff of fragrant breath, redolent of bad
gin and lemon from pair of tobacco stained
lips, and out went the light and down went the
pipe on the table. Not being so fortunate as to
have any Mandy" for a roommate, and the
household domestic being aged and discreet, he
did not leave the door unbolted, but with growl
at the bachelorc solitude of his couch, jcrked
down the q kiyer," plunged within, pressed his
I" innocent head on the pillow, and after several
moments of twitching, turning and grumbling,
settled on his back, and fierce attack of snor-
ing ensued, which closes the scene
Imagine such a domestic existence as this
linked to the ETHEREAL, dainty and refined Miss
Preston" Enjoy your little maidenly privileges
and arrangements while you can, q Miss Char
lie," for we fear variety of circumstances in
welded life would ruthlessly interfere with the
systematic course ascribed to you in preparing
for a nights rest.

PRAcTICAL JoKNG IN HIGH LIFE-The Paris
correspondent of the London Globe writes =
Practical joking I had thought died out long
ago in all decent society but, if newspapers are
to be bclieved-a thing of which am not at all
certain-Q speak, of course, only of those of
France and the rest of the Continent) lit still
fourishes in the highest society of this country.
Here, for example, greatly condensed, is a story
find in one of the journals of Paris: dis
tinguished party were fortnight ago the guests
of the Marquis de C, in the Chateau of -,
in the neighborhood of Trouville. The ladies
of the party being bored, resolved somewhat un-
gratefully, in order to amuse themselves to play
off a joke on their host. So one night they
placed quantity of flour between the sheets of
his bed. At his customary hour the Marquis
retired to rest, but the strange substance aston
ished him, and he jumped up. He found himself
as white as a miller from head to foot. A few
moments of reflection convinced him that he
was the victim of trick. He coolly rang for
his valet, made the man scrape him and wast
him and then change the sheets, after which he
returned to bed.
The next morning he said not a word of what
had happened. Three evenings after he proposed
drive to a small shooting lodge in the neigh
borhood, where there was q splendid view, and
when he got there he offered the ladies tea The
cake served with the liquid was extraordinarily
good. and the fair danes did ample Justice to it.
They declared that they had never seen any
thing like it in Paris. I" Yet nothing would be
more simple than to make such cake, said the
Marauis /" First, take your -four" continued
he. with all the solemnity of cookery book.
uand then roll man in it." The ladies' looked
aehast" ayes, mesdames, the cake is made of
the -four in which it was your pleasure should
