Very Domestic Man,

The following is one Of the man,
good things that Shanghai Chandler
of the Adams county WISCONSIN,
Independent, gets off:
Our Shaghai editor is married
mana very married man; keeps
two COWS, hens, hens husbands
Faust horse, no dog, gay sleigh
and such like qradgnpeds. lie be
lieves i'll having miikin the family;
and verify 'twould please thee to
witness the farmatopne>Eirs he puts
oh, and the editorial airs he puts on.
as he goeth forth like a fiower.and
runneth among the hens and milkl
eth We bovines. Belize his dignity
went rapidly down other night
New milch COW taketh to herself q
certain pleasant habit of extending
hinder hoof with a yank.
Editor sat beside lacteal glands
pail cIasped twiXt his knees, and
thus engaged in teat-squeezing, he
was heard to utter in q very sorry
tone:
kick not. that We be not kicked !:
for with what violence We kick, We
shall be kicked. And with what
measure ye eat meal from, it shall be
swattcd over your countenance."
Anon the bossy kicked like fork
ed lightning, laying out Shanghai
Chandler fiat on his stable floor,
completely painting him with foamy
COW juice, Tipping his hat far to the
leeward, jamming up the tin pail
like a stepped-on stove-pipe, and
causing a white editor to SPOUT milk
from his nose like a porpois.
And then the wall that was heard
was this:
"She hath lain my confidence
waste, and braked my shin; she
hath made the milk pail clean nasty,
and cast away the milk; the front
Of Shanghai is made white. Howl,
all We little families, for this kettle
o milk is cut off from your mouths
Below, calf, crack your cheeks :
Had | your tongue and voice, I'd
use them so that heavens vault sho'd
crack. o, It's gone, forever, twill
come no more; never, never, never,
Break, heart! l pray thee,
break! Tn very much disguised
I'm a body demnition cold, wet,
uncIean, unpleasant, body!"
So saying, he smote the COW with
l terrible curse, saying, Darn your
skin p Then he kicked her just
me kick, with such force that he
'aid he had driven his toe nail clear
,ack to his heel, and went in and
lsked Mrs. Editor to wash him off.
Selah!

A SAD END,-During the fore
part Of last week, Il gentleman nam
ed Nnlp, residing about two miles
west of this place, and familiarly
known here, came to town and sta
ted that during the night proceed
ing some one came to his chicken
coop and was engaged in stealing
his chickens. Hearing the noise,
he took down his rife and went out.
He states that he thought he saw
some object behind the chicken
coop, and hailed it several times,
and receiving no answer and seeing
no stir, he discharged his gun in
the direction of the object. At that
instant he became satisfied of the
fact that it was human being,
whom he saw running away as fast
as his speed could carry him.
Nothing more was thought Of the
matter until Friday last, When DR..
Southard was called upon to go in
to the country to see a sick man,
named Grow. The doctor found
that the lower part of his abdomen
had been penetrated by rife ball,
but was unable to extract the ball,
not being able to find its location,
and the wound having been made
nearly a week before, was in a
bad condition to probe. Grow died
on Saturday morning.
We learn that he made the state
ment prior to his death hats some one
came to his chicken coop to steel
chickens, and upon going out to
protect his property was shot 1t
is said that he afterwards recalled
this statement. There is no doubt
but he received the contents of Mr..
Nelp's rife, though the litter was
not awar that he had injured
my one before DR.. Southard's as
sistance was called in behalf of Mr.

PRECEPT AND PRACTICE
AN ATHENIAN STORY.

In Athens, ere the sun of fnmc had set,
Midst pomp and show the gazing cruwdi
were met,
Intent forever upon something new,
The mimic wonders Of the stage to view
So,where the wide.extended circus spreads
In gathered ranks its sea Of living heads,
Ranged in close order, rsiGgrow on row,
The void arena claims the space below.
The seats were filled but ere the show be.
gan,
A stranger entered; twas an aged man;
Awhile he sought place with aspect mild;
The polished young Athenians sat and
smiled,
Eyed his confusion witha sidelong glance,
But kept their seats, nor rose at his ad
vance.
0, for burning blush of deeper hue,
10 mark the shame Of that sclf-gIorious
crew;
How poor the produce Of fair learning tree
lhat bears no fruits Of sweet humility!
he growth Of arts and sciences, how vain
In hearts that feel not for another's painl
Not SO the Spartan youth, whose simple
school
lnstilled the plain but salutary rule
Of kindness, and whose honest souls pre-
fcrrcd
Truth to display--performance to word
These Spartan youths had their appointed
place,
Apart from Attica's distinguished race,
And rose with one accord intent to prove
To honored age, their duty and their love;
Nor did Spartan youth his seat resume
I'LL the old man found due and fitting
room.
Then came the sentence of rcproof and
praise,
Stamped with the sternness of the ancient
days,
For standing full mid theassembled crowd
The venerable stranger cried aloud:
"Ihe Athenians learn their duty well, but
10!
The SPartans practice what the Athenians
know"
The words were good, and in virtuous
cause;
Theyjustly earn d a nations glad applause. .
But we have surer words of precept given, /
In Gods own book--the words that came
from heaven:

Brig. Gen. Vallandigham.

In Il recent speech Don Piatt thus
draws a sketch of Vallandigham as
a valiant Brigadier General:
Why, do you remember, my fel-
low-citizcns, that previous to the
late war, this Clement /. Vallandig-
ham was a Briganier General?
remember it, for l saw him. | hap
pened to be in Dayton when the
f. Governor Of Ohio, on special invi-
tation, came there to inspect and
review the naval and military forces
Of Montgomery county. Oh! you
need not laugh; it was big thing !!
| may say it was immense! An in
dependent company Of thirty men,
frizzed up like wood cocks prepared
for the spit, and Brigadier General
Clement L. Vallandigham and staff.
Why it struck me that the style and
name should have been Brigadier
Clement L. Observation-Disclosures
mer and staff This was the militia
ry; as for the naval force, | cannot
say; | suppose your "ragin' kanawl'
had gun-boats about as imposing as
the Brigadies General. I was stand
ing on the balcony Of the Phillips
House when the Gen'l came sweep
ing roung.
II saw him but moment;
Methinks | see him now,
With bomb shells worked upon his tail,
And war upon his brow"
He was on u tremendous charger,
and had his breast stuffed out like a
wet nurse, and his behind like II
bunty tailed rooster. His epaulets
dazzled the beholder, his fearful
sword banged to and fro, and, wide
as your streets are, they were not
wide enough for him. He came on,
caracoling and cavOrting.
He scared a woman with child in
her arms on one corner, he upset
an apple stand on the other, and so
he swept on out Of the present, |
believe, into glorious future
How secure our glorious country is,
.hought |, with such defenders
Great Glen, valient Glen, cried,
'ide on to glory.

For the Herald, ~
Lines in Memory of Georgia F.

Gone from the home which his presenc,
hath gladdened,
The hone of mother, a fathers FOND
pride;
Quenched in gloom is the light of th'
household,
The angel of Death bore him from Oul
side.
Gone is the laugh that rang out so glee'
some,
Faded the smile wreath on that face 50
fair;
Dim are the blue eyes, once brightly
beaming,
Damp with the deathdew his clustering
hair.
Gone and for aye down through the dark
valley
Where the shadow of death lies long
and deep;
Earth has no charm Of sunbeam or bird
song,
That can break the strong bands of that
dreanless sleep.
Gone but not lost; not dead but sleeping,
Only the robe thut encumbered his flight
Fell to the earth; the spirit assembled
On pinions of love, to regions of light
Gone from his home on earth, and its loved
ones;
Gone from his schoolmates, his teachers
and friends,
To Join that band of sisters and brothers,
In those bright mansions where joy never
ends.
At home so soon, and watching and wait
ing
On the bright threshold of heavenly rest,
Sweetly beck ming to those that still linger,
Cheering them on to the land of the blest'
0. fond hearts, whom sorrow hath dark
ened,
Above your tender buds, immortal, bloom,
And O! for you awaits that welcoming
Which children givet to parents long from
home.
