| For want Of a horse the rider was lost;
| And all for the want Of horseshoe nall
Here is an instance of what the want
of nail cost Farmer Careless. He had
Just finished milking, and with a steam
ing pail in each hand, walked out of the
barn-yard to bear his load to the house.
In passing through the garden gate, he
noticed that one of the nails holding
the latch was broken and the bar was
hanging loose. Half minute Of time,
one small nail, and two blows with a
hammer would have fixed it; but our
farmer was in hurry and couldn't at
tend to the matter just then, so, leaving
the mending for another time, he trudg-
ed along the path. Just there was his
mistake, as was shown by five conse-
auences. A COW pushed open the ne
elected gate and walked into Farmer
Careless's garden, followed by nineteen
more cows, and all proceeded to lunch
upon his young corn, to march with de-
vastating tread over his cabbages, and
to carry ruin to his onion patch. In
driving them out, after they had done a
vast amount of damage, Farmer Care
less stumbled over stump (Which ought
to have been pulled up long before and
fell, fracturing his knee-pan, which ac-
cident cost him six weeks in bed, a long
bill from the doctor, rheumatism as of
ten as the wind blew from the east, ever
after, and limp in his gait as long as
he lived. Two of his best cows died
from eating too freely Of their stolen lun-
cheon; though they might have been
saved had their owner been able to at
tend to them in time. During six weeks
enforced idleness at the business period
of the season, his farm was necessarily
neglected, his crops were ungathered and
his grass was left uncut. From all these
troubles he was unable to pay the inter
est ON his mortgage, his farm was sold
and sacrificed, and Farmer Careless was
left poor man for the rest of his life
All these misfortunes came upon him be-
cause he had carelessly neglected to
drive needed nail in the latch of his
barn-yard gate-American Agricutat-

LETTER FROM A MUSICAL FRIEND.

Dear Series Editor
Seeing that you are now giving cuts in your
column. I would like little notice taken OF our
Free and Easy that meets every Saturday night,
in Cherry street, and our boys will all be
pleased 10 see themselves treated to notice,
'seriesly" speaking.
Our "Free and Easy" which goes by the name
OF the "Conyivia Nightngaes" among the pro.
fame, is an institution somewhat after the
fashion OF a Mutual Admiration Society. More
strictly speaking, it is Mutual federation So
Ciety, for when A sings, B, G, aud D listen and
applaud, simply in order to insure attention and
appreciation for themselves when their turns
come. Do you suppose ! care to hear Runkel
for the twentieth time-not to say hundredth-
croaking out "The deep-deep Sea" Or can
you imagine that the fftieth repetition OF Will
sons squeaky piping about "My pretty janet
has any charm for me? No! endure them
because my time will come presently, although,
10 be sure, my rendering of Champagne
Charlie" is performance not to be COM
pared with such rubbish as the singing OF Will
son and Runkel.

discovery that some hne old piece of almost for.
gotten music has been stolen-and disfigured-
by the popular melodists. Jones does not care
bit for music; has no ear and no appreciation.
He merely Joined our society because il gave.
him unusual opportunities for bowling the
imbecilities which he calls "oomIc songs" here
represent him in his supposed imitation of
Lngard, half yelling and half whispering
"On the beach at Long Branch
One fine summers day."
1t is rather painful and unpleasant for
those Of us who do not care for such places
and such people to have music-hall MELODIES
and music.hall manners thrust upon us by
Jones. ] despise the little wretch always, but
when he begins to sing, pity mingles with con-
tempt. 1t is heart-rending spectacle! AS he
stands wagging his poor feeble noddle, with
stereotyped grin OF affected knowingness on his
doughy expressioDless countenance, and bellows
out in harsh, vulgar voice the rhymeless and
reasoness rubbish which he calls a song, he
presents q spectacle which makes one in
clined to think Darwn's theory OF the origin
of man by no means The worst that could be
propounded. would far rather fancy the human
race sprang from a monkey than a comic singer
like Jones.

This is the portrait of our chairman (chair
taken at o'clock. He is ROseinbug, of the we'll
known firm OF Rosenbug, Buginrose q Co.,
wholesale clothers, on Market street. He pre-
sides over our meetings with a placid solemnlty
which shows that he appreciates the importance
of the position. 1t is really beautiful to see the
deprecating glance he turns TO members who
rattle their glasses, or whisper, while a song Is
going on, and it is JOY to behold him hinging
himself INTO the applause, which he guides aud
moderates when needful. You would hardly
suspect him OF possessing very high tenor
voice-but he has one. and MARBLES "Good bye
Sweetheart" with great feeling, when he does
sIpg which is not very often,

The last member whose portrait l give is old
Gillingham. He is a wonder to us and mystery
to the world at large. BY some he is supposed
to have an Office down In Harmony court; by
Others he is believed to be the surgeon of the
lunatic department of the Almshouse. He is
such fossilzed old party that his age Is uncer-
tain, but he is no chicken. He remembers
Braham and talks about Billy Quale as of but
yesterday, so that he must have had an ear from
his earliest infancy. He goes to the opera two
or three times in the season, but he does not
think they sing as well as they used to do. He
himself has peculiarly weak and quavering
voice, which is little suited to compass the little
trills and flourishes with which he decorates his
songs, He has one or two old fayorites that he
pumps up at times with difficulty. when the
Swallows Homeward Fly" is one of his pets, but
his finest effort is "From the White blossomed
Sloe." His rendering of the touching passage:-
mo, by heaven exclaimed, may perish
II ever plant In that bosom q thornm
is triumph. Unfortunately, at times he is
seized with violent fit OF coughing while he is
among the high notes. However, he is not dis.
concerted, but waits like plucky old boy till
the fit is over, and then to our Infinite rapture
begins all over again!
This concludes my brief sketch OF the CoDvi'
vial Nghtingales. 1t is by no means AN exhaus-
tive description, but it pictures the most distin-
guished members. Space will not permit me to
immortalize all.
Yours, OCTAVE.

This Is our pianist, Bradbury, the orgauist OF
ST. Crispn, one of the suburb churches in which
there are more stained glass windows than wor-
shippers; where, in fact, the incumbent with
eight hundred per annum is paid at the rate of
fifty dollars per head per year, for his ordinary
congrega gation-including the clerk. Bradbury
is in chronic state of maudlin and incipient
intoxication when we meet him of an evening.
Whether he abstains from alcoholic excitement
on Sundays, or whether he has taken to 1t with
view to doubling his audience at church, has
never been clearly stated. At our annual dinner
he invariably gets hopelessly tipsy, and as
invariably insists on playing the most comph-
Gated overtures and sonatas. He usually finishes
up the performance by rolling his head along
the keys when his hands refuse to play
whereupon the chairman has him promptly sent
home in hack.

from his boots. Williams son is short, and boasts
tenor that appears to come from somewhere in

that the artistic manner in which they look

is to be attributed to eachs curiosity as to the
locality whence the others voice proceeds They
are here depicted in the act Of singing "Meet me

from their singing duets together perpetually,
that they are as attached 10 each other as Damon
and Pythias. On the contrary, they fight in
cessantly over their music each trying to select
pieces that give him the lions share of the sing
ing. As a rule, it may be taken for granted that
the ''sons of harmony quarrel more than most
