A Shepherd's WIT.

A proud parson and his man were riding
over q common and saw q shepherd tend
ing his Aovk. Having new coat on, the
parson asked him, in a naughty, arrogant
tone, who gave him that coat ''The
same, said the shepherd, ''that clothed
you-the parish" The parson, nettled at
this reply, rode on, murmuring q little
way, and then he bade the man 60 back
and ask the shepherd if he would like to
come and live with him, for he wanted q
fool. The man accordingly, going to the
shepherd, delivered his masters message,
and concluded al be was ordered, that his
master wanted fool. "Why, are you
going away, then r. said the shepherd.
s'No," answered the other. Then you
may tell your master, returned the shep-
herd, that his living cannot maintain

though uncomfortable Of themselves, new
ertheless are not devoid of interest when
made the subjects of the draftsman's ready
pencil. OF such nature is the process de-
picted in our sketch-merely a molder
busily engaged in ramming the sand into
his flask. The pleasing combination of
form attracted the casual notice of our ar
tist few days since, while visiting large
industrial establishment and in a spare
moment he jotted down the lines which,
by one of those marvellous processes Of
photo-engraving, we have caused to be rep
resented in perfect facsimile in thousands
of copies of tide Scientific american. The
design will be an agreeable memento of
possibly the daily practice of many into
whose hands our paper may find its way,
while, perhaps, it may be not entirely with
out mission Of it's own. The earnest face
Of the workman and the firm grasp with
which he wields his rammer show very
clearly that he is delivering no gentle blows,
and that his task is being done with will
which .9 q sure guarantee Of its thorough
ness. Now ramming molds is not a come
plicated performance, nor does it require
the ability Of very skilled artisan on the
contrary, it is very small portion of the
multitudinous operations which must be
accomplished before the perhaps great
structure, to which the piece Of metal in
the flask belongs, is completed. But in
significant as this process may be, zeal and
thoroughness are just as much called for
as in the most delicate manipulations, and
no mechanic will ever be the loser by using
his best efforts on just such little things
Faithfulness in the accomplishment of
small tasks brings with it the ability TO
perform thoroughly much greater ones
and the workingman who proves himself
energetic and honest in doing the former
will soon find that his talents are needed
in larger operations, which will insure him
increased credit and profit.

Danbury's Boy.

WHEN boy can carry every thing at
one load he will not go twice after it,
This was the case with a boy who was
working his way through Elm street
the other day, with twenty bean poles
on his shoulder Now one bean pole is
about all an ordinary mortal can carry,
and nobody but a boy would attempt TO
carry twenty of them. He had tied them
together at the middle, leaving the ends
loose, and had thought on starting, with
out doubt, that he was boy of remark
able promise. Bean poles are naturally
uneasy. When they can't move one way
they will another but they will move and
in spite Of all precautions These did.
lie had them on his shoulder at first, but
some OF them got to dropping down be
hind, and striking against people, and
others fell down in front, and stuck into
the sidewalk and made him stumble.
Then again some of them lay horizon
tally. Not but they preferred to drop as
the others, did, but lying horizontally
while the others were in opposite posi-
tons gave pleasing variety to the per
formance. When the boy stopped as he
was frequently obliged to do, some one in
the rear would step on the poles or in
among them, and swear at him. Finally,

was, and knocked out the face of a clock
man was carrying in his arms This so
excited him that he dropped the poles
entirely. The owner of the clock cuffed
him over the head, and then took down
his fathers name and swore he would
have damages. The unfortunate youth
then took the awful things up in his arms,
but they wouldn't lie still They kept
together at the middle, but were demora-
lied at the ends, and whirled about so
rapidly as to scare him. He looked like
a windmill, and presented such an awful
spectacle that people prccipitately took
to the street, and several horses attempted
to climb up into their wagons. He had
to drop his load again or be shot down
in his tracks by the infuriated drivers.
Finally he made two bundles of them,
and took one under each arm. Some of
the ends commenced to tangle with the
opposites, and get in front of his eyes and
shut out his vision. Others dropped
down in front and behind, and one of
those which went down in front caught
so firmly in the walk as to completely
upset the unhappy youth, and he came
down on his back-having turned a
complete summersault-with poles under
him, and over him, and on all sides of
him, while just back of where he went
down stood woman picking the wrecks
of a bonnet out of her hair, and looking
in the pile, for the largest pole was a mid
dle-aged man with a cut nose and a rup-
tured shirt. The boy jumped up and fled.

The straws were used for fence bars, sup

Another SIander Nailed.

DURING the campaign it was stated by
the opposition press that Judge Dent, OF
Washington, had secured lucrative posi-
ton abroad for a gentleman in return for
$4,000 in cash. paid him by one Farrand,
lawyer Of that city. The story was ex-
tensiyely published, and was supported
by what purported to be the evidence of
the man Farrand. 1t was out OF this
SANDER that the difficulty between Judge
Dent and the editor of the Capital arose,
in which the latter was caned. Farrand,
who has been out of the country, has just
written a letter to Judge Dent declaring
the whole story an infamous falsehood,
and the evidence purporting to be his a
forgery. Thus, one by one, do the SIAN
ders upon the President and his family
fall to the ground-Chicago Iater-Oceaa.
