VISITORS FROM DEL PLANES
One of Peters Sons on BendeI--
Modern Taueyism Respects the
Rights of Negro Cooks.

Our hest appetizer and most welcome
morning visitor Is the lSTELLGENcER.
Occasionally, however, the pleasure de-
rived from i is marred by the pcrusal Of
a paragraph which informs us that somc
of our young men have been over To TIE
CITY, have lifted the flowing bowl, have
become upruarious, and have secured an
audience before His Honor, Judge Good
with two dollars and "k0Sts' as the finale
At such times we have wished lhGt W.
had q morning paper so that inc adVcI'
lures of certain Young men on tins sue
might be duly ventilated LOT tne ln'nli'' "a,
ton Of their friends and nelghDols as
home by the way, an instance occurs
10 us. IL, H., ,I,o
civ whose escape from the nursery anu
s"Earr linen does not dale very lar back,
came toour Buckeye shores in pursuit oil
inn In Bcllaire they got psteam. Having
exhausted all sources Of amusement in
that growing city, they started on their
weaving way To Bridgeport, marking out
as the came, most excellent course for
rail fence, rs might very naturally be eN'
pectcd when three young men, in an eN,
ceedmgly "salubriOus condition. would
attempt 10 drive the same horse at the
same time. Once in Bridgeport, and
their social feelings warmed up To u high
pitch through the agency OF the red eye
already imbibed, they deemed Unnecessary
for them To make some calls. But owing,
we suppose, TO the inuactability OF the
auadruped which had them in charge,
they drew up at the rear OF the dwelling
in close proximity TO the kitchen and
wash house. The cook hearing an up
roar prolruded her ebony COuntenance
from the kitchen window. One OF the
callers, discerning through the maze that
surmOunted him, that he was at least IN
tho presence of calico, made, what he no
doubt considered, a desperate attempt Of
very profound bow, and Immediately
thereafter found himself sprawling upon
mother earth, minus the seat Of his pan
falcons, which had remained hooked to
the carriage. A tremendous ha, la and
an enormous exhibition of ivory ut tho
window, aroused the youth, from theiT
stupid condition, and sent them with
difficulty to tho threshold OF tho front
entrance, and VIC arc glad to say only TO
the threshold, for such Stiffness and such
lack Of deconcy, met with no encourage,
ment there, and Us they were turned
away from the door. They must have
felt that their conduct had excited only
feelings of contempt and disgust.
Several other equally lruilless efforts
ut calling were made, when tue party
very wisely determined TO make theiI
cxiI from tue town, little dreaming, We
presume, how nearly they came to being
| iined into the street on the pedal exlremi
ties of those who take il upon themselves
to guard their homes from the inrOads o
drunken vagabOnds.
In conclusion let me advise these boyi
that II they will get drunk, to Cndeavol
TO retain in their bCsOLtcd moments, sense
and manlincss enough to prevent then
from forcing their bcastly selves into the
presence OF respectable people.
