"reminiscences of Daniel Webster.

In 1910, when the old Union line of
steamers of Philadelphia was in its glory,
Hon. Daniel Webster reached Baltimore
on his way North, and it becoming
known that he would take the Union
line, which departed from the foot of
South street, large crowd of persons
assembled on the dock. The great
Massachusetts representative went on
board the steamer Constitution, then
commanded by the late Capt. Chaytor,
and it being Sunday afternoon, no one
expected q speech from Mr. Webster,
but the thoughtless crowd were voef-
ferrous in its calls. The great man of
the age appeared on the upper deck and
commenced q speech that thrilled all
hearts by simply saying, "My country
men, there were no ,Saxlays in Revolu-
tionary times, In after years, on the
close of sessioEio of I2'sercss, Mr.. Web
ster accepted an invitation to visit Mr.,
Cameron at his home in Pennsylvania.
On reaching Baltimore, William T. WSl-
ters, Esq, then acting president OF the
old Susxnehanns railroad, (now the
great Northern Central, had provided a
special car, and, with others, accompain-
ed Mr. Webster 10 Pennsylvania. Be-
fore reaching York dispatches came
over the wires that thousands of people
were at the depot, and when Mr.. Wal
ters informed the statesman of the great
assemblago, he said he regretted the
fact, as he was unable to make q speech.
Finally the train reached the borough of
York, where at the depot people were
Scongregated in multitudes. Loud cheers
went up for Webster, and he was at last
induced to appear on the platform. As
soon as order was restored, Mr.. Web
ster stretched out his arms and said.
"Mon of York, in your borough lie the
remains of two of the most illustrious
signers of the Declaration of Indopen-
dence-Welsh and Livingston. Mr..
Webster went on electrifying the crowd,
speaking until the progress OF the train
made his eloquence inaudi1lo. 1t is also
recorded that when Packenham was
British minister at Washington, at a
court dinner party, both Webster and
Clay being then dead, the British minis
ter was asked the difference between the
two men when he promptly replied, that
he knew but Of one-Clay kissed all the
women he met in the street, while Web
ster never kissed them except in the
house.

A Terrible Fall.

Tho Chattanooga Herald contains the
following account Of q frightful accident
which took place in that city on Satur-
day morning last, in which horse and
delivery wagon belonging to Mitchell &
Stone, grocers, were precipitated over u
bluff into the river:
On Saturday morning tho boy in
charge went down Spring street on his
usual rounds, but having in new horse,
the animal balkcd. He turned from
Spring to Second. Here the horse balk-
ed again. The street at this point is very
narrow, there being just room enough
for vehicle to pass between an adioin-
ing garden fence and the bluff, which
iuts out 125 feet above tho river below.
The horse, whel, he stopped, commenced
backing, and ut once started the wagon
down steep slope which precedes the
final descent. The weight of the wagon
drew the horse after it and both went
headlong to the bottom. Tho driver vi
first appeared panic stricken and un-
conscious Of his danger, but, upon some
one crying out to him, reused up and
loaped out in time to escape horrible
death. After rolling down the slope the
horse and wagon had clear fall of
seventy-fye feet or more, stricking bed
of rocks at the bottom of the river, which
owing to the low stage Of the river were
clear OF water. The horse was killed in d.
stantly and the wagon shattered to frag-
ments, mixed in with water-mellons,
peaches, apples, flour and groceries in
general. The driver ran around to the
bottom of the bluff as soon as possible,
but found that the animal was dead,
without ever having stirred from the
place where lie had fallen.

Newspaper Patrons.

One thing We have noticed from the
time we entered upon our apprentice
ship, As years ago the 10th day of this
month, that Providence generally smiles
benignantly and prosperously upon
the man who keeps himself square on
tho printers books. You take the sub
scription list of any paper where the adj
vance system is not rehgiously adhered
to, call out the names Of those who pay
promptly, then visit ther habitations,
and in nine cases out Of ten You will
find them in the enjoyment of all the
ordinary comforts of lifo-pleasant and
cOntGnted dhouseholds-t husband kind
and Industrious, the wife happy and af-
fectiouate, children sprightly and we'll
behaved at home and abroad, sleek cat
tie grazing in the green pastures and
good stock feeding in the stalls, thrifty
fruit and shade trees around, flowers
blooming in the garden and about the
yards and an air of neatness. comfort
and substance without md within. Now,
take that other class of patrons-those
who never pay at all, or have to be "ding-
donged out Of it" at the end of third
year; or, what is still worse, the newspa-
per sponge who is not able to pay for q
paper, but ever ready to borrow from
his neighbor--ten to ono, vou will find
a majority OF these always afflicted with
"sholt crops, always "hard run, always
"out Of keller" axes, ploughs and hoes
eternally duh, horses that look like the
genius Of famine, cattle nearly related to
Pharoah's lean kline and too poor to low
without leaning up against the rickety
fence, gates off the hinges, doors half
hung, windows guiltless Of glass, not II
fruit or shade tree in sight, rank James
town weeds blooming round the door
sills, and, instead of luxuriant meadows
and perennial pastures, sussahas and
briar bushes growing in tho fonce-rows
and broken places, the hill sides furrow-
cd with gulilos, and punches Of tall sedgo
waving mouIniu]ly in the wind nll over
the farm. Aud worse than all a morcse
and unhappy husband, discontented

Trust Children.

Mover accuse child of fault unless
you are certain he committed it. Chill
dren should not be treated with suspi-
cion. We should act toward them in
this matter as we feel we ought to act
toward others, only with greater tend
erness--not less, as is usually done.
We should always put the best construc-
ton possible upon their conduct; that
is, unless you are sure child is telling
lie, and can prove it, do not show the
smallest hesitation in believing what he
says. Far better that you should be
deceived, than run the risk Of showing
n truthful child that you do not trust
him. Your simple trust may make a
lying child truthful. Your doubt of
his truthfulness may make truthful
child liar.

Yonr First Sweetheart.

You can never altogether forget her.
She was SO very young and innocent
and pretty. She had such way OF
looking at you over her hymn-book in
church. She alone Of all the world did
not think you boy Of eighteen, and
wondered at your size and learning, and
your faint foreshadowing Of sandy
moustache, and believed you every inch
man. When at those stupid evening
parties, where boys and girls who should
have been eating suppers OF bread and
milk, and gone to sleep hours before,
waltzed and hirted and made themselves
sick over oysters and champagne, you
were favored with glance of her eye
or a whisper of her lip, you ascendod to
the seventh heaven Immediately. When
once, upon d certain memorable eye,
she polked with the druggists clerk,
and never even looked at you, how mis-
erabie you we're. 1t is funny to think
of it now, but it was not funny then,
for you were awfully in earnest.
Once at a picnic she wore II white
dress, and had roses twined in her black
hair, aud she looked so much like a
bride that you fairly trembled; some
times you thought in just such snowy
costume, with Just such blossoms in her
hair, she might stand beside the altar,
and you, most blessed of all mortals,
might place a golden ring upon her fin
ger; and when you were left alone with
her for a moment some Of your many
thoughts were sure to form themselves
in to words, and though she blushed
and ran away, and would not let you
kiss her, she did not seem to be angry.
And then when you were parted some
how for a little time, and when you met
again she was walking with gentleman,
a large, full grown, whiskered man Of
twenty-eight or thirty, and had neither
word or smile for you, and some we'll
meaning gossip informed you shortly
after that she was engaged to the tall
gentleman with black whiskers, and
that it was a splendid match, 1t was
terrible news to you than, and sent You
of, to some great city, fan from your ma
tive place, where, after a good deal Of
youthful grief, and many resolutions to
die and haunt her, You recovered your
oquanimity, and began to make money,
and to call love stuff and nonsense.
You have a rich wife OF your own,
now, and grown-up children, aye, even
two or three toddiing grandchildren
about your hearth; your hair is gray,
and you lock your heart up in tho fire.
proof safe at your banking house when
you go home at night, and you thought
you had forgotten that little episode Of
your nineteenth year, until the other day
when you read of her death in the pa
pers. You know she was a stout lady,
who wore glasses, and had died Older
than she was in that olden time, but
your heart went back and you saw her
smiling and blushing with hor cold
black hair above her face, and yourself
a boy again, dreaming of wedding-robos
and rings and you laid your old gray
head upon your Office desk and wept
for the memory of your first sweetheart

4 Short Sermon.

Here is a bit of philosophy worth
reading. 1t is an exposure of very
common delusion. 1t is good render
ing of au old idea:
1.-TWO things ought to be strongly i'm
pressed upoh young people of our coun-
try. The insecurity of riches, even when
acquired, and their unsatisfying charac-
ter. There is no fallacy SO universally
cherished as the notion that wealth is
surely means Of happiness. The care
Of a large property is one of the most
burdensome of earth's trusts. The only
material good that comes from any
estate is TO be made out of a moderate
income far more easily than q large one,
and with fewer attendant disadvantages.
Few thoughtful men would undergo the
entire stewardship of large estate on a
positive bargain that they should receive
no more for taking care OF it than Or
dinarily falls into the lap of the owner.
The scramble after wealth is due to a
wrong estimate Of good when it is gain.

CORquOr Your Troubles.

A Word About Proof Reading.

Every column of a newspaper contains
from ten to twenty thousand distinct
pieces of metal, according to the size of
the paper and type. The displacement
of single one makes an error. Is it
any wonder that errors occur? In large
offices professional proof readers are
kept, whose practiced eyes passing twice
over every line of proof, detect most Of
the errors, boy is also kept for the
same purpose at the same time reading
the copy aloud. Still mistakes are fire.
quently occurring, after coming from
such hands, and probably no newspaper
or book ever was yet published without
errors that might be detected by the
merest novice. In book printing it is
estimated that proof reading costs half
rs much us composition. In country
Offices the editor generally has to be his
own foreman, printer, book-keeper and
almost everything else, and if the same
care had to bo exercised that is deemed
indispensable On the best city sheets,
the country newspaper could not be
published at all, because Of the expense.

Face the Music.

Face the Music.
Face the music. though the world should
Turn against you in its might,
Wayer not, be not q coward,
Dare to think and do what right.
IfreVerses come, and sorrow
Oyertake you on your way,
Pace the music, and the morrow
VIII dawn brighter than to-day.
When a storm Is breaking Ger yOu,
Or an avalanche sweeps down,
And your life seems dark before you,
And the world appears to frOwr.
Aud all friends prove false and leave you,
Fen the friends you most do love,
And your fOndest hopes deceive you
Face the music--lOok above.
Face the music, though the rattle
Of the conflict jar your soul
Boldly enter Life's long battle,
God your guide and Heaven your goal.
Face the music in Lifo'S morning.
Face it in the noon-tine bright;
Face it in she twilight glooming,
Pace it in the solemn night.
At all times and in all seasons,
Whsrcsoyer you may be,
Let no feAr nor favor bind you,
Face the music and be free.

So it went through the whole list,
there simply being DO government at
