"Spelling Down."
AN OLD CUSTOM REVIVED.

We met sleigh load of boys and girls the
other night few miles out of the city, on
their way to a" spelling match" in the school
house of neighboring district, and the jing-
ling bell and the merry laughter of the young
folks made us forget for a season that we had
passed the forenoon of life, and we Joined the
happy throng in imagination, and were back
again among the scenes of years ago, when
cares were few, and the greatest sorrow OF
our life was to be compelled to stay away from
spelling or singing school to get our boots
tapped, and know that "Bill Jones' would
60 home with our girl after the exercises oil
the evening were ended.
Is there an individual living who does not
at times brush the cobwebs away from his
pictures of the past, and revert fondly to the
scenes of his youth? If so let him be known
tboueh we do not believe in the unmanly
feeling that prompts one to look back for all
his pleasures, and see only clouds and stormy
weather in the future.
But we commenced to talk of spelling
schools-the old fashioned kind, held in the
winter evenings in our own or neighboring
school-houses. The latter, however, were
looked forward to with more pleasure, as the
usual monotony of the occasion was relieved
by the excitement of meeting foreign ioe'
and the fun of a ride under the buffalo rooes'
to the field of contest.
How ssbig'' we used to feel when in SOL
emu manner the schoolmaster would step up
on the rostrum, and after erasing all traces
of the DAVIS arithmetical exercises upon the
blackboard, that our minds might not wander

years ago, a. he street corner. I am rather
proud of having been the means of starting
him on his road to fortune. 1t involved q
first outlay, on my part, Of thirty cents, for
one box of backing and two brushes, which
has been repaid long ago. Billy no longer
cleans boots. Should you ask him the rea-
son why he has abandoned this lucrative pro-
fession, assuming somewhat the tone and
manner of an actor of the Bowery style, he
win say, .'The last pair of boots shined was
at the Astor house; they was Mr.. Lincoln's.
After that gave up the business. But have
got the old brush that did it, with ticket on
it, telling all about it you couldn't buy that
brush for no mans fifty dollars" 1t would
be difficult to tell you what Billy does exactly
for a living Sometimes miss him for a
week in the streets. When see him again,
he tells me he has been in Buffalo, or Boston,

Gle, Billy means most anything that can be
