A certain political speaker closed
an address in behalf of his party
with the ( lowing perogation
"Build q warm fence around the
winters supply of summer weather I;
skim the clouds from the sky with
a teaspoon catch a thunderbolt in
a bladder; break hurricane to har-
ness; ground-sluice on earthquake |;
lasso an avalanche; pin napkin
on the crater of an active volcano |;
get all the stars in a nail-keg; hang
the ocean on a grape vine to dry (;
put the sky to soak in a gourd !;
unbuckle the belly-band of eternity,
and paste TO Let on the sun and
moon, but never, sir-never for a
moment delude yourself with the
idea that any party can beat our
candidate"

An Experiment that Failed.

/ am not sure wether | did righ

right. 1t was on this wise.
Believing implicitly that the
bending of little human twigs
should be accomplished during the
early stages of their growth con
cluded to commence on We've. Ac'
cordingly l filed a box with chest
nuts, and placed it within her reach
saying "Now, We've dear, you
must not touch them without my
permission"
"Well, den l dess I'll not" was
the reply, while the brown-eyed
three-year-old gazed wistfully to-
ward the sweet temptation. l gave
her six or eight.
"In my dear little potit-fank'oo." :"
/ went to my work, and labored
with all the cheelfulness of an in
ventor who is pretty sure his ma
chine will be success.
During the afternoon it occurred
to my mind that those eight nuts
were lasting a remarkable time.
Assuming my blandest tone for the
occasion, | asked:
"Vieve have you eaten all your
chestnuts Z"
"No | fink not
"Come here darling. Where do
you get so many Z"
"Oh! | diets 'em out o my potit."
"Well, but here are more than /
gave you at first" said, as l exam
med the dainty receptacle. "Oh
We've have you been disobeyinG
me and takingmore out of the box

"Bnt are you surep
eyes Is pity sure
"Oh dear Vieve!" / cried with
the feeling of one who discovers his
invention to be a failure, "this
makes poor mamma feel so sad. i
do not like to punish you but what
must | do? / must have my little
girl obey me. Oh what shall L dor
The small sinner looked rehec-
tive.
"Well, mamma" said she pres
emily in solemn tones, Il dess 'oo'd
better pray"
Believing her suggestion a wise
one, embodying about all the wis
dom of the entire affair, l acted on
it.
Returning to my occupation after
our session had adjurned, the first
thing that caught my attention was
a scrap of old newspaper, contain
ing the sentences:
"He who through intention or
neglect throws before another a
temptation is, if he be overcome,
equally guilty"
put away the box Of chestnuts,
and am waiting for further light.

About diversification, so far as it
relates to something more than corn
and better than oats, may be of in
terest at the present hour. 1t is an
instructive circumstance that those
farmers who have succeeded in
making something more than a liv-
ing during the low prices 1871, ~,
and '73, have succeeded by the
means of side issues, as they may
be called. One man has saved him
self by securing the clover seed
gathered from the aftermath, and
secured and thrashed in September
and October. Another has found
his salvation in growing heavy
crop of millit I; and a third, and
many with him, have found their
only source of profit in timothy
seed at $3.50 the bushel, and hay
at Sc to so the ton. 1t is remark
able that where farmer makes a
point of Independent speciality, he
is pretty sure to succeed. / call to
mind one who makes more off from
an acre of asparagus, sold in the
Chicago market, than from the 1853
acres of his remaining farm; and
stock man who, selling South
down weathers at s15 each, grows
rich out of such q practice. Oh, il
farmers had a wider range Of read
ing and experience, what crop of
pecuninary and mental profit they
might reap and gather in to the
garners of the purse, the mind and
the heart.

"And still you are not happy,
my dear friend" / remarked as he
brushed the ashes of his cigar upon
my boot. "Can it be that she re-
fused your"
40, no alas, she accepted me.
l took her pale, jeweled hand in
mine. placed upon it a $1,000
solitaire. She was too frail to speak
loud. She coughed and only whis-
pered her love, while, overcome
with emotion, her languid eyes
suffused with tears. l was too hap
py to live. But, o dear! Eli, l
was born to be disappointed. Fate
ruthlessly plucked the prize from
my grasp. Fate"
"But how, Robert 2" l asked.
"Well, in an evil moment my Lily
began to drink the water here.
Not the mineral, but the pure wa
ter from the village hydrant. If
she had stuck to Congress water l
would be happy now but one fatal
day she drank some hydrant water.
She felt better. Then she drank
more-then more, till at last she
used to drink ten glasses every
morning. Then her appetite came
back. She began to grow stout.
Her cough went away, her checks
grew red, and my beautiful, frail
Lily became a healthful, ruddy
holyhock. She took to bowling,
then riding on horseback, and this
morning-O dear! cannot tell
You"
"Go ahead, Robert, tell me ALL"
] urged, contidentially.
"Well, this morning, Mr.. Per-
kins, she-my frail Lily-carlied
her Saratoga trunk down two
flights of stairs just for an excuse.
Then she asked me to walk three
miles over to the lake, and when
we got there, Oh, dear she ate
ham, and woodcocl1, and potatos,
and almost an entire black bass,
weighing three pounds, and when
Mrs. Myers asked her if she
wouldn't have another, she said no
she was afraid it would take away
her appetite for dinner" And

prospect ahead but just to spend

And then Robert Mason leaned
heavily forward on his hands, while
the tears trickled through his fling
ers and battered down on his white
duck pantaloons-a wretched hear
broken, and ruined man.

T,ie Devil OutdOne.

Tsie Devil CutdOne.
Old Nick came up to the earth one day,
And into old Washington wended his way,
And having some hours to spend for calls,
He thought he would visit our national halls.
On arriving there he crossed the sill
As discussion was hot on the Salary bill.
Now Old Nick, as everybody knows,
Has power 10 change both himself and clothes,
So, seeing Senator's vacant chair,
Presto change! and he was there
And he said, as his eyes DER the assembly ran,
"wouldn't make splendid Congressman
The bill was read, and the devil sat there,
Tilted back in his easy chair,
With no particular interest in it,
Till there came a pause of about one minute;
And in n voice that was full of dread
The "back action" clause of the bill was read.
Old Nick sat up with interest now,
To see what the honorable ~ body would do.
"For surely" said he, "they haven't sunk so low,
That they can pass the bill clear through
1t surely must be some hideous joke,
Or my imps have overdone their work"
The bill was read and the ayes were called,
And the devil sat there like one appalled,;
And the basest thing which he ever saw
Was this wholesale theft under the guise of law.
"To look any further there is no use,
For of all mean things this beats the deuce"
"For thousands of years I've wandered round
Trying TO see if there could be found
In the universe a lower level
Than that which is occupied by the devil
My search was fruitloss by sea and land
Till met an American Congressman.
"If men like these are TO Congress sent
I'll run my chances for President"
Old Nick left town that very day,
But he was heard to mutter as he passed away:
"I'll let that forty second Alone
For If don't they'll steal my throne!"

While on the Peninsula, during
the war, / came across a private
belonging to one of the most pre-
datory companies of the Irish Bri-
gade, with the lifeless bodies Of
goose and hen, tied together by
the legs, dangling from his musket.
"Where did you steal those, you ras-
cal 7" "Faith, l was marching along
with Colonel Sergeant Mcguire, and
the goose-bad cess to it!-came

Country readers can wander
