Road Etiquette.

Perhaps there is good reason in des-
pising some of the rules of etiquette
imposed by fashionable society. If a
man wishes to eat his mashed potatoes
with his knife, or prefers 10 pour his
hot coffee into saucer rather than burn
his throat, we arewiiling that he should
have his liberty. But there are some
things that no man has right to do.
and that no well-bred man will wish to
do. No man will'wish to put his fork
into another mans plate, or drink out
of another PERSONS cup. If two men
sleep in the same bed, and of them
crowds the other to the rail he is called
aIhog. aahi i1SIt.so3 sai
: Now, there are certain rules of good
breeding that apply to the road as well
as OF the table or the flreside. We aren0t
talking aboutany1aws in regard to the
road other than the laws of common
sense and good breeding. When two
teams meet, good breeding requires that
each give half the roadg Yet we often
meet teamsters who refuse to obey this
simple rule, because they have thead-
vantage at the time. .d A man with q
heavy lumber wagon has no more right
to crowd light carriage into the ruts
or bushes than a burly lubber would
have to force his weaker bed-fellow to
sleep on the rail. If some popularity
in his load requires him to keep the
track, he can stop team, and politely
ask for it, and thank the other, for
giving it. .9gcusfrq Hi Elin. ,lI
.4 When one teamster wishes to pass
another on dusty road, he should ask
the privilege of doing so, especially if
there is a lady in the forward wagon
When the forward team finds that his
own team travels slower than the other,
he should holdhis horses to their slow
est pace till the other passes. A man
has no more right, under these eireum-
stances, to whip up his slow team just
enough to keep the other in the rear,
than he has to build a fence across the
road, or do anygill-mannered vulgar
thing. 1i. - Iiiss. il,t 1.luI...
We supposi there are statute laws to
regulate the conduct of teamsters, but
we have notifelt it necessary to refer to
them, for we think little attention on
the part of teamsters. to the simple
rules OF good breeding, will do us
much to prevent accidents and secure
comfort and good feeling on the road us
any set of laws that could be enacted.

An Extraordinary story.


The Carlinville correspondent of the
Democrat relates the following story,
the circumstances ofwhich, while they
are exceedingly sensational, can be
vouched for by persons residing in this
city: ~
One of the most remarkable divorce
eases on record has been begun, and it
Is to be tried at the August term of the
Macoupin County Circuit Court. The
parties have lived together for seven
teen years known to the world as hus-
band and wife. The reputed husband
now files bill, alleging the so-calIed
marriage to have taken place in Ma
lcoupin county in 1855, and praying for
"a divorce on the ground that the person
to whom he was. then formally married
is not woman, although previous to
and at the time OF said reputed mar
Iriage he was induced to believe the
person aforesaid tOabe woman. If the
allegations of the bill and of outside
parties are true, the trial will show the
extraordinary case Of two men having
lived together for this long period Of
time, in the character of husband and
wife, an instance, in other words, in
which a HatHrak-Eunieh has been able
to personate the female character and
as such to go through the solemn ex-
ternal forms Of marriage, and then to
continue for many years to deceive
neighbors, and even intimate friends as
to his real sex. The complainant al
lleges that his ignorance of the laws Of
this country, he being a German, and
the advice Of supposed com mDetent par
ties, prevent him from fling a bill for
release along ago from the bondage of
this pseudO-msrriage. As the parties
have accumulated a considerable prop
Ierty, it will be a point of great interest
for the Court to decide upon its equit-
able division, in case of a dissolution of
the curious co-rarthership.-[&. Louis

No Lazy Christians.

There is no better place from which
-tOsee heaven than a c1lrpenter's stable,
or masOn's wall, or a merchants eoun-
ter, IL Tho heart be right. Elijah was
plOwing in the field when prophetic
mantle fell upon him. Matthew was
engaged in his customary house duties
when he was commanded to 'sfOllow."
James and John were busily engaged
i'm mending their nets when called to
be fisners of men. Had they been snor-
ing in the sun, Christ would not have
brought their Incidence into Apostle
ship. Gideon WAS at work with fail
on the tQreshing floor, when he saw
the angel. 1t was when Saul was with
fatigue hunting up his fathers asses,
that he got the crown of Israel. The
+HprodigaP' SON would not have been
reformed. and wanted to have gone
home, had he not gone into business,
although il was swine feeding. Indeed,
it is not once in a hundred times that a
lazy man eyor becomes Christian.
THERE'S but little hope for the man that
has nothing to do. 1T is not when in
idleness, but while like the Bethlehem
shepherds watching your fiOcks, tnat
the glory Of God will shine about you,
and there will bejOy in heaven among
the angels Of God, over yOur soul, pen
itent and forgiven.
