HORACE GREELEY's manuscript is no.

printer ofno ordinary skill TO set up his copy
if he happens to write in hurry. The
recent newsp9T sr snecdote of an article
headed "Williin II Seward" which Mr..
Greeley had returned to him set up
"Richard Ill.," is fresh in the minds Of
all; but an occurrence still more funny
is related which happened in the Tribune
office, some y cars since.
A compOsitor had made so many errors
in setting the philosophers" copy, that
it irritated him to such degree that he
wrote the typo letter, dscharRing him
from further duty. The compositor being
unable To decipher the contents of the note
on receiving it, took II TO the foreman,
who explained to him that 1t expressed
that he was "not careful man and Mr.
Greeley dispensed with his services" The
man laid down his stick, put on his coat
and left. The next day he applied for q
situation as assistant foreman in large

No YOUNG lady can be too well in
structed in anything which will affect the
comfort of family. Whatever position
in society she occupies, she needs a prac-
tical knowledge of household duties. She
may be placed IN such circumstances that
it will not be necessary for her to perform
much domestic labor; but on this account
she needs no less knowledge than if she
was obliged TO preside personally over the
cooking stove and pantry. Indeed, have
thought il was more difficult to direct
others, and requires more experience, than
to do the same work with our own hands.
Mothers are frequently so nice and par
