THE ORIGIN OF DIXIE.-
A writer in the New Orleans Delt

a writer in the New Orleans Delta
says:
Il DO not wish to spoil pretty il
lusion, but the real truth is that Dixie
is an indigenous Northern negro refrain,
as common TO the writer as the lamp
posts eff New York, seventy or seventy
FIVE years ago. 1t was one Of the eve
~ day illusions of boys at that time
in all their outdoor sports. And no
one ever heard Of . Dixie's Land be-
ing other than Manhattan Island, until
recently, when it has, enormously been
supposed to refer to the South from its
connection with pathetic negro allegory.
When slavery existed in New York,
one Dixy owned large tract of land
on Manhattan Istand, and a large num-
Der Of slaves. The increase of the
slaves and the increase of the abolition
sentiment, caused an emigration of the
slaves to more thorough and secure slave
sections, and the negroes who were thus
sent off naturally looked back to their
old homes, where they had lived in clo-
yer, with feelings of regret, as they
could not ina gine any place like Dixy's.
Hence it became SYNONYMOUS with an
ideal locality, combining ease, comfort
and material happiness Of every de-
scnption. In those days negro sing
ing and minstrelsy were in their infan-
cy, and any subject that could be
wrought into a ballad was eagerly
picked up. This was the case with
Dixie. 1t originated in New York, and
assumed the proportions Of a song there.
In its travels it has been enlarged, and
has gathered moss. 1t has picked up
a note here and a note there. A cho-
rus has been added to it, and from an
indistinct chant of two or three notes
it has become an elaborate melody
But the fact that it is not Southern
song cannot be rubbed out. The falla-
cy is SO popular to the contrary, that
| have been at pains to state the real
origin of it,"

A LAZY boy makes a lazy man, just
as sure as crooked sapling makes a
crooked tree. Who ever vet saw a
boy grow up in idleness, that did not
make shiftless vagabond when he be-
came a man, unless he had a fortune
left him to keep up appearances The
great mass of thieves, paupers and
criminals that fill our penitentiaries and
almshouses, have come to what they are
by being brought up in idleness. Those
who constitute the business part of the
community-those who make our great
and useful men-were taught in their
bophood to be Industrious.

COOPERATION OF THE WIFE.-There
is much good sense and truth in the re-
mark that no man ever prospered in the
world without the cooperation of his
wife. If she unites in endeavors to re-
ward his labor with an endearing smile,
with what confidence will he resort to
his merchandise or his farm, fly over
lands, sail upon the seas, meet Difficult
ty, or encounter danger, if he knows he
is not spending his strength in vain, but
that his labor will be rewarded by the
sweets Of home.

EXTERMIYATING MosQUITos. - A
correspondent writes to the New York
Erening Post that carbonic acid has
recently been successfully used near
Railway for the determination of mos
quitos and flies. A small piece of cloth
saturated with the acid, was hung up
in room, and in two hours the flies
had entirely disappeared. In the even
ing the acid was tried in the kitchen,
where the flies were very troublesome,
with like success.

PO,IPOsITY.

Hold not thy head so high. my friend.
For surely thou must know
The heaviest heads Of wheat will bend
The stalks on which they grow;
And everywhere the loyeEest flowers
Bloom nearest TO the ground;
The sweetest songsters Of the wood
In lowiy shades abound.
Hold not thy head so high, my friend.
Though rich IL lands or gold;
The throngs that on thy steps attend
Speak not the thoughts they hold;
Their true respect is only paid
Where worthiness they see
Those deferential bows are made
Unto thy wealth, no, thee.
Hold not thy head so high, my friend,
Whafe'er thy station here,
For brains viii triumph in the end
What, then, viii be thy spheres
We envy not thy lordly tread,
Nor az thy lot repine-
Who could not hold erect head
That weighs so light as thine?
