4 SMART JEwEss.-The Manchester
England Times is responsible for tn,
following: Adolphus Fitzmelon was a
smart young man." 1t was his firm
conviction that with the opposite sex
he was irresistible. One evening Fitz
melon was Mt the opera, aud in an adj
joining box he espied a beautiful lady
without a male attendant. He nodded
to his companions, and remarked that
he must make conquest. So in the
adjoining box he made his way and un.
tremendously seated himself by the
young lady's side. She looked up in
surprise Adolphus smiled swcetly and
begged pardon. He must have been
mistaken. He had thought he recog.
nized in her an acquaintance. She III
formed him he had been mistaken.
STILL" ventured Adolphus, 81 hope
don't intrude" The lady made no reply,
but turned her attention to the stage,
where a scene was transporting in which
she was much interested. At length
Adolphus addressed her again. Turning
quickly, she said, you annoy me, sir!'
and her bright eyes flashed. "Bless
meW cried Adolphus, drawing back
with mock terror, don't eat me-" The
lady smiled a sweet, beaming smile, as
she replied, BE not alarmed, sir, am
a Jewess, and my religion forbids me to
eat pork" Unfortunately for Adolphus,
his friends heard the rejoindcr, and he
is not likely soon to hear the last of his
passage with the beautiful Jewess.

DAVID aARR1cK AND THE MAsr1FF.

One very sultry evening in the dog
days, Garrick performed the part Of
Lear" In the first four acts he re.
ceived the accustomed tribute of ap-
plause; at the conclusion of the fifth,
when he wept over the body of Cordelia,
every eye caught the soft Infection. AT
this interesting moment, to the aston
ishment of all present, his face assum-
ed new character, and his whole frame
appeared aggitated by a new passion
1t was not tragic, it was evidently an
endeavor to suppress q laugh. In q
few seconds the old attendant mobiles
appeared to be affected in the same
manner, and the beauteous Cordelia
who was lying extended on a crimson
couch, opening her eyes to see what oc-
casioned the interruption, leaped from
the sofa, and with the majesty of Eng
land, the gallant Albany, and tough old
Kent, ran laughing off the stage. The
audience could not account for this
strange termination of tragedy in any
other way than by surprising that the
dramatis person1 were seized with a
sudden frenzy; but their visibility had a
different source. A fat Whitechapel
butcher, seated in the center of the front
bench of the pit, was accompanied by
his mastiff, who, being accustomed to
sit on the same seat with his master,
at home, naturally supposed that he
might here enjoy the same privilege
The butcher sat very far back; and the
dog, finding fair opening, got on the
seat, and fixing his iorepaws on the
rail of the orchestra, peered at the per-
formers with as upright head and as
grave an air as the most sagacious
critic of the day Our corpulent slaugh-
terman was made of melting stuff, and
not being accustomed to the heat of a
playhouse, found himself oppressed by
a large and we'll powdered Sunday per
iwig, which, for the qualification of
cooling and wiping his head he pulled
off and placed on the head of the mas
tiff. The dog, being in So conspicuous
situation, caught the eye of Mr.. Gar
rick and the other performers. \ mas
tiff in a church-warden's wig was too
much; it would have provoked laugh
ter in Lear himself, at the moment Of
his deepest distress. No wonder. then,
that it had such an effect on his repre-
sentative.

FAMILY FESTIVALS.

It is quite clear that we Americans
get far less enjoyment out OF life than
we might. We still suffer from the eff
fects Of our Puritanical origin, and al
though we may have abandoned the
theory that pleasure is necessarily a
sin, we still cling to the practice OF es-
chewing it. We may not insist as we
once did upon obedience to the eleventh
commandments hou shalt not eat
mince-pie," added by the Praise-God
Barebones to the Decalogue-but we
touch the one forbidden pastry, or in
dulge in the innocent pleasure OF which
it is here taken as the symbol, too rare
ly, and seldom without fear and tremb-
ling. Not content with erasing from
the calendar all the saints days and
holy feasts and festivals which were so
many pleasant and wholesome remind
ers that man was not made for work
alone. we have reduced our national
holidays to two or three in the year at
the utmost, The late war, with its many
days of glory, has not apparently lett
us q single one for perpetual annlver-
sary of celebration. As for family fes-
rivals they seem to be in fair way OF
being abolished altogether. This we
think an imprudent concession to the
drudgery of life.
We might learn a useful and charm
ing lesson from our foreign friends, and
especially from the Germans. These
contrive to make their homes constant
scenes of cheertuness. Every domes-
tic event is turned 10y them into an oc-
casion of joyous demonstration. The
celebration of the baptisms and christ
enings, birthdays and silver and golden
weddings, and other family events,
make life in Germany perpetual hoh-
day. This does not, as some might
suspect, render the German an idle,
devil-may-carc person. His prominence
in every country as man OF industry,
enterprise and thrift, proves the CON
trary. This exhubcrance Of domestic
Joy serves rather 10 Intricate his ener-
gies, and render him capable of bearing
the rnbs Of life without wear aud tear.
1t is surprising also how much hearty
enjoyment the Germans manage 10 get
for small expenditure OF money
These family festivals are made up of
very few articles purchased in shop or
market, but of great deal Of senti-
ment of home production. \ bouquet
Of flowers, a cake, a toy, or trlnkct,
is all that costs money; the rest is gen
orally supplied by affection and good
nature. What tune may be- thought by
oar parsimunious calcula;or; wasted IN
these home festivals should be- rather
estimated as gained. Tic strength
given to the domestic affections, and
the positive increase Of social happi- |
ness by this practice Of cultiyating the
innocent pleasures OF home, are suiii-
cient to commend il. Apart, however, /
from these, il has the further advantage |
Of indirectly cconomizing time I he

The following extracts from the an

the most beautiful churches on this
continent, has determined to build
for their children a school house. to

such provisions as these on the part
of capitalists for the laborers in their
employ that the best adjustment Of
the quarrel between capital and labor
will be reached. Undoubtedly, some
thing may be done by legislation to
improve the condition Of working
people, but the great result to be

One Huudred Years Ago.

A hundred aud ten years ago there
was not single white man in Ken
lucky, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.
Then, what is now the most -four
ishing part of America, was as little
known as the country around the
mysterious mountains of the moon.
1t was not until 1867 that Boone left
his home in North Carolina to be-
come the first settler of Kentucky.
The first pioneers of Ohio did not
settle until twenty years after this
time. A hundred years ago Canada
belonged to France, and the popula-
tion did not exceed a million aud
half of people. A hundred years
ago the great Frederick of Prussia
was performing those grand exploits
which have made him immortal in
military annals, and with bis little
monarchy was sustaining a single
handed contest with Russia, Austria
and France, The three great powers
of Europe, combined. Washington
was a modest Virginia colonel, and
the great events of history in the
Two worlds in which these great tut
dissimilar men took leading parts
we're then scarcely foreshadowed.
A hundred years ago the United
States were the most loyal part of
the British Empire, and on the po
litical horizon no speck indicated
the struggle which within a score
of years thereafter established the
great Republic Of the world. A hun
dred years ago there were but four
newspapers in America. Steam en-
gines had n t been imagined, and
railroads and telegraphs had not en-
tered into the remotest conception
of men. When we come to look
back through the vista of history,
we find that to the century just
passed has been allotted more import
ant events. in their bearing upon
the happiness Of the world, than al
most any other which has elapsed
since the creation.
