A family living in the country hired new
coachman apd his name was William. As
both the gentlemen of the house and his eld-
est son were named William it was thought
advisable to avoid confusion to call the coach
man by his last name. William had no OBJ
lection to this plan, and was asked to state
his surname. "Deary," said he, with dia-
bolical grin. The family shuddered. Think
of it. How would this sort of thing sound:
"Deary, come here minute" "Cut me
some flowers for bouquet, Deary." elbow
long have / been waiting for you, Deary.
The family resolved to stand by William.

Beau Brummel had one friend who was a
clergyman, and when the latter was guest at
his table he was accustomed to say grace-a
formula generally dispensed with on other oc-

we are going to have champagne" said Brum-
mel, ''by the way which Plymby asks the
blessing. If he sees only common glasses be-
tokening claret and sherry, he will content
himself with ''For what we are about to re-
ceiye," etc. but if his sight is gladdened by
the tall glasses that promise sparkling wine,
he will Shut his eyes and commence with

ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.

Young men, get married you will
never be worth a last years robins
nest until you do. The fruits Of
disobcdionco are misery and misfor-
tune, and you will never be truly
happy while living in disobedience
to Gods commandment to our first
parents in the Garden. Remember,
that there are seventy five thousand
more marriagebIo ladies in the Uni
ted States than gentlemen and 300,
! 600 more females than males. I'm
agino yourself at The bar Of judg.
ment with -, goo old spinsters with
toothless jaws and tongues sharpen
ed on the grind-stone Of temper, and
honed on the strap of unrequited af-
fec,ion, as your accusers, then your
chance for eternal bliss would not be
very nattering. And furthermore,
remember that unpcrlomed duties
always come home to roost, SO you
will be very likely to go through the
world with holes in the heels.of your
stockings, and your elbows out, and
finally die unregretted, aud be for
gotten like any other brute.

THE WAY TO TAKE IT.

There are different ways Of TAX
ing a joke. But evidently the right
and philosophical method is to re-
ceivo it with becoming good grace
and good humor Whenever We do
this we place before US a shield from
which the pointed wiiticism glances,
and falls harmIessIy to the ground.
The puugcncy of a joke exists in a
great measure in the modification
and bad grace which charactcrizes
the victim of iocoso illusions. And
the perpetrators of jokes lose half Of
the enjoyment Of the occasion when
in a spirit of simple good nature we
receive the harmless shafts. The
worse possible deed that a lady or
gentleman could commit in this con-
neetion is to show temper. a nod
to the wise is sufficient.

MAKE A NorE or THs.-If you
wish to make any purchase, don't
60 away from home to do it. En-
courage home industry and give
your trade to merchants and me-
chanics, especially those who adver-
tise freely. That is the way to build
up lively business in your own
town, and benefit yourself as we'll rs
others. Every dollar spent in a
town is Of an advantage to a
place in general, and every dollar
spent abroad for articles which
could be bought on as favorable
terms at home is like taking 50
much capital out Of the business in
teresta Of the place.

DANIEL WEBSTER IN BoYHooD.

Daniel Webster in boyhood gave
no promise Of the extraordinary
powers of his manhood, and espec-
tally of his fitness for public life and
speaking.
His growth was slow and solid,
not rapid or brilliant. The follow
ing record Of his early years may
encourage some of our younger read
ers:
When about seven years Of age
his father kept "Yankec Tavern"
and young Daniel used to entertain
the guests by reading to them some
of the psalms Of David. Even the
rough teamsters, when they pulled
up their horses would say, Come
let's 90 in and hear psalm from
Dan Websterw His voice at thai
time was deep, rich and musical
But as a schoolboy he was no elocu.
ZIONIST, or rather his sensilivenes'
was such that he could not practice
His first effort at fourteen was fail
ure, for the moment he began he was
embarrassed and burst into tears.
He tried many times, preparing
himself carefully, but when his name
was called, and he saw all eyes
turned upon him, he could not rise.
So much for this great orator. Let
no timid boy be discouraged

THEN SHALL THE END COME.

Good heavens or bad heavens,
lust as the ease may be; for here is
a great astronomer in Switzerland,
NJ. Plantamour by name, who pre-
diets the coming Of comet more
gigantic than any heretofore obser-
we'd, which, with Undesirable We
locity, is heading for this unfOrtun-
ate world, and will arrive on the
18th day of August next The first
thing we shall notice is that it is
growing uncommonly hot, but this
being quite usual on the 18th of
August, it is probable that very few
of the inhabitants of the earth viii be
ready for the catastrophe which must
inevitably follow. Our only chance
of escape from conclusive destruc-
ton is that some bigger planet may
cause the comet to deviate from its
regular route. If it dosen't, we shall
be snuffed out like a tallow candle.

He is a check, in fact, upon the

abuse the editor for advocating any

Where so oft we've stood together
In the ey'ning calm and still

On my brow again thy kiss;
Yet be gay, be bright, unheeding,

And thy glorious dream has fled,
