A Singular Indian Tradition.

Among the Seminole Indians there is ! singular tradition regarding the white mans origin and superiority. They say that when the Great Spirit made the earth he also made three men. All of the men had fair complexions ;and that after making them he led them to the mar gin of small lake, and bade them leap in and wash. One obeyed, and came out purer and fairer than before the second hesitated moment, during which the water, agitated by the first, had become muddled,, and when he bathed he came out copper-colored the third did not leap till the water had be- come black with mud, and he came out black with it's own color. The Great Spirit Lid before them three packages,
 and out of pity for his misfortune in color gave the black man the first choice.
 He took hold of each package, and hav- ing felt the weight, chose the heaviest.
 The copper-colored man chose the next heaviest, leaving the white man the lightest. When the packages were opened, the first was found to contain
 spades, hoes, and implements of labor; the second enwrapped hunting, fishing, and warlike apparatuses the third gave the white mnn pens, ink and paper, the engines of the mind-the means of m,i- tual mental improvement, the social link of :, humanity, the foundation of the
 white mans superiority. -.! ..,-...,

An Edit0rss Table,

Will M. Carleton, in Q recent poem, draws the following picture of an editors table: ... The editor sat in his sanctum, his countenance
 furrowed with care, .t... His mind at the bottom of business, his feet at
 the top of chair, .........., His ,chair-arm an elbow, supporting, his right
 hand upholdiug his head, -.F '. His eyes on his dusty old table, with different
 documents spread :-.
 There wore thirty long pages from Howler,
 with underlined capitals topped, ..fs And short requisition from Growler, request
 ing his newspaper stopped;
 There were lyrics from Gusher, the poet, con
 corning sweet fowrets and zephyrs, And stray gem from Plodder, the farmer, de-
 seribing a couple of heifers ..y i.. There were billers hpm beautiful maidens, and
 bills from a grocer or two. ...,....,. ,g- And bis best leader hitched to letter which
 inquired if he wrote it or who?
 There were rapt,ires of praises from writers, ot
 the smooth and mellifuous school, And one of his rivals last papers, informing
 him he was fool u..E...-. There were several long resolutions, with names telling whom they were by. Canonizing some harmless old brother who
 had done nothing worse than to die;
 There were traps on that table to catch him,
 and serpents to stlng and smite him , There were gift enterprises to sell him, and bitters attempting to bite him |, ',... There were long, staring "ads" from the city,
 and money with never 6 one, ittT. .f'! Which; added, s'Please give this insertion, and

 meetings, their wants and their laws Which said ''Can you print this announcement for-the good of our glorious cause 2" There were tickets inviting his presence to fes-
 tivals, parties and shows, .i, Wrapped in notes, with "Please give us no- tice, "idemurely slipped in at the close; In short, as his eye took the table, and ran oaer its ink-spatteredltrash,f .srD There was nothing it dld not encounter 5 ex- .cepting, perhaps-it was Cash. ,or-,..

The I.aZy Man.

A lazy man is always good-natured. He never flies into passion. He might crawl into one, if that were possible /; but the idea of his flying into one is prepos- terous. Who ever heard of lazy man breaking into bank where O crowbar had to be used, or drilling into safe Not but that he might covet his neigh bor's goods contained therein, but the horror of handling crowbar and drills would always deter him from actually committing burglary. He never runs away with his neighbours wife, simply on account of the horror he has of running. If he is ever known to run, it is to-run to seed. He rarely lies about his neigh bors, for it would be too much exertion ]; but he lies about a bar room all day. He is of inestimable service to billiard saloon, keeping the chairs warm and watching the game, for few would care to play where there are no spectators. The fact that he does this without pay, day in, day out, shows the unseltishness of his nature. The lazy man never gets up revolutions, instructions, and other popular settlements, and don't make 0 nuisance of himself by training around the country making incendiary speeches to promote public discomfort. In his own neighborhood he is never busybody in other peoples affairs, for the very idea of being Q busybody at anything would drive him out of his head. No lazy man ever ran mad. If he went crazy, it was because he couldn't go anywhere else without walking. Lazy men don't dis turb the quiet of peaceful neighbors by putting up factories, furnaces, and other abominations. s.-ErchdRge. . -t.
