James Bowie and Henry Clay.

Reverdy Johnston used to tell a
story of Henry Clay, apropos of him
self. Reverdy married Mary Bowie,
a cousin of James, or Jeems Bowie,
the inventor of the Bowie knife.
One day, Henry Clay, who had
arrived in Frederick, MAJ yland, by
stage-coach FROM Wheeling, met
Reverdy johnson in the street.
Reverdy," he said, " have just
made an extraordinary acquaintance
back here at Cumberland. A man
got half my seat in tue stage coach !;
little knotty freckled fellow and
on the next seat were man and his
wife, and on the third seat a couple
of big men.
We had TO sooner started and got
clear of Cumberland, than one of the
big men lit a cigar. He pulled and
pulled, till in a little while the stage
coach was full of strong fumes, and
the woman grew very sick. She
asked her husband to raise the win
dow, and still unable to bear the
smoke, told him she must lean upon
his lap. The husband leaned over
and said to the smoking man i
"My wife is sick. Please do not
smoke by my side"
The big man smoked like blast
chimney and paid TO heed whatever
The woman grew fainter and cough
ed. My blood was boiling, but
knew the man could double me ul
and throw me out of the window.
Suddenly the little being at my
side leaned forward, pulled bowie
knife out of bis coat collar, and sale
to the smoking giant:
"YOu scoundrel, 1 am James
Bowie. Throw away that cigar o.
I'll split you into half apples r'
"The man." concluded Mr.. Clay
" dropped the cigar like an automa
ton and we had not a word Spoken
for thirty miles"

Story Of Sam Houston.

Usually he made point, on his
way north, to stop three or four days
at Cairo to enjoy the fishing. On
one occasion he had located himself
on the stern guard of wharf boat,
while boy, bent on the same bust
ness, had taken position ON a wood
boat moored q few feet off. Both
were patiently awaiting results. At
the interesting junction of bite at
the boys bate, Houston threw out his
line, which became hopelessly en-
tangled with that of the boy. There
was a pause. Neither seemed to
have a word fit for the occasion. At
last Houston broke the silence:
Sonny, go elsewhere and fish,
and then well avoid entangling
alliances"
"YOu blasted old short coat" re
torted the bud of promise. "go else
where yourself and fish,"
"I apprehend you are a very saucy
boy" returned the Senator, for
whom there is by no means rods
enough to pickle"
"Now, look here, old sheezicks,
cried the boy, fully agitated, A."
done want to quarrel with you. nor
nobody like you. Your name is Sam
Dawson, and you live in Texas
and, like everybody else, you stole
a boss, and had to 60 there; and
now YOU are putting on big shine,
you old thief, and calling yourself
Sam Houston" Saying which, this
very amiably creature gave sudden
lurch, and pulled the honorable gen
tlOman's rod from his hands, and
threw it into the river.
In relating this in his characters
tic style, Houston said: 81 have
met men in debate, at the bar, or
the stump, and upon the floors o
Congress, but never was | so com
pletely discOmftted. The boy hat
decidedly the best of me and from hi,
looks, | knew that when he said
stole a horse in his heart he be
Iieved it."-Harper's Drawer.

TIE GOLDEN STATE.

There is many rest in the road Of life,l
II we would only stop and take it;
And many tone from the better land.
II the querelous heart would make It!
To the sunny soul that is full Of hope
And whose beautiful trust ne 'er faiie.h.
Though the winter storm prevalent.
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low,
And TO keep the eyes still liftedl
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through
When the ominous clouds are rifted;
There was never night without day,
Or an evening without a morning:
Ahs the darkest hour, as the proverb goes,
IL the hour before the dawniug.
There is many gem in the path Of life,
which we pass In our idle pleasure.
Tht is richer far than the jeweled crown
Or Tns miserrs hoar ded treasure
Il may DO the love Of little child,
Or q mothers prayer Of Heaven,
Or only beggas's grateful thanks
For cup Of water given.
Better TO weave in the web of life,'
A bright and golden filing.
And TO do Gods will with q ready heart,
And hands that ready and willing,
Than to snap the delicate and minute threads,
or our curious lives assunder,
And then blame Heaven for the tangled ends,
And sit aud grieve and wonder.

EARLY HoURs.--It has been suggested
that one of the reforms of society in which
the female clubs can lend powerful aid, is
the observance of early hours at social gath
erings, parties and balls. At public balls,
the season for which is now commencing,
the dancing does not begin much before ten
o'clock, and consequently the evening is
prolonged until four or FIVE o'clock in the
morning. Hence, on the next day, the par
Elephants in what should be an amusing re-
Taxation are entirely unfit for business, or
even the lighter tasks of home. Headaches,
general depression, and unstrung nerves are
the result of entertainments which become
designations. After midnight every party
goer should be at home.

fur is the length and density of the down

Nor was It thorn shat could rend
Put up thy proud underlip-

And yet, peradventure, one day,

Where the smile in It's dimplement was
And seeking around thee in vain
From hundreds who battered before,

EFA good story is told of Bar
mum to the effect that he de. lgned
an advertising curtain for the
museum, and sent out an agent to
solicit merchants to fill it with cards.
The first man the agent applied to
was Helmbold, who Immediately COL
summated bargain for the entire
curtain. The agent returned to
Barnum, reported progress, and was
sent back to pay Helmbold $4,000 if
he would only tear up the contract,
but it was no use. That curtain was
paid for and HelmbJld's remedies
were duly advertised thereon. A
few day after Barnum met Helm
bold OH the street, and sand: You
