How He Examined Him.

A gentleman from Swampvile was
telling how many different oecupa-
tons he had attempted. Among
others, he had tried schoolteaching.

A Little Composition Oh the
WheelDarrOW.

The Danbury News says: If you have oc
casion to use wheelbarrow, leave it, wher
you are done with it, in front of the house
with the handles toward the door. A wheel
barrow is the most complicated thing to fall
over on the face of the earth. A man viii
fall over one when he would never think Of
falling over anything else; he never knows
when he has got through falling over it,
either; for it will tangle his legs and his
arms, turn over with him and rear up in
front of him, and just as he pauses in his
profanity to congratulate himself, it takes a
new turn, and scoops more skin off of him,
and he commences to evolute anew, and
bump himself on fresh places. A man
never ceases to fall over a wheelbarrow un-
til it turns completely on its back, or brings
up against something it cannot upset 1t
is the most inoffens;ve-looking object there
is, but it is more dangerous than locomo-
tive, and no man is secure with one unless
he has tight hold of its handles, and is
sitting down on something. 4 wheelbar-
row has its uses, without doubt, lslt in its
leisure moments it is the great blighting
curse on true dignity.

Mr. Crittenden, of Kentucky, was
at one time defending man who
had been indicted for a capital ofense
After an elaborate and powerful de
fense, he closed his effort with the
following striking and beautiful ale
CORY.
'When God, in his eternal council
conceived the thought of mans crea
ton, He called to Him the three min.
isters who constantly wait upon the
throne-Justice, Truth and Mercy
and thus addressed them; Shall We
make man?' Then said Justice, 'Oh
God, make him not, for be will tram
pie upon thy laws
Truth made answer also, 'Oh, God
make him not, for he will pollute thy
sanctrnries. But Mercy dropped
upon her knees, and, looking VI
through her tears, exclaimed, oh
God, make him; I will watch ove1
him with care through all the darl
paths which he may have to tread
Oh, man, thou art the son of Mercy

The jury, when he had finished

evidence, and what must have beer
their own convictions, brought in 6
verdict of not guilty.

A Stern PaPienf.

One of our young men has recently eeas
ed to make calls at a certain house. 1t ap
pears he went the other night from an oys
ter supper, and on her father appearing al
the door, he observed, ''Hello. old tadpole,
where is the floating gazelle? where is my
love now dreaming" This seemed to ind
cate to the old gentleman that something
was wanted, SO he placed his hand sadly OF
the young mans shoulder, and, turning
him partly around, slowed away a largt
amount of leather under his coat tall, an6
then retired in the house. The young Inar
doesn't go there any more. He says thu
smallpox is hereditary in the family.

The following went the rounds Of
the newspapers, and was attributed
to Webster:
'Men of Rochester, 1 am glad to
see you, and I am glad to see your
noble city. Gentlemen, I saw your
falls, which I am told are one hund-
ren and fifty feet high. That is a
very interesting fact. Gentlemen,
Rome had her Cesar, her Scipio, her
Brutus, but Rome in her proudest
days had never q waterfall a hundred
and fifty feet high. Gentlemen,
Greece had her Pericles, her Demos
themes, and her Socrates; but Greece
in her palmiest days never had a wa
terfall hundred and fifty feet high
Men of Rochester, go on. No peo-
pie ever lost their liberties who had
waterfall hundred and fifty feet
high"

MANNERs.-"I make it a point of
morality" says a writer, ''neverto find
fault of another for his manners.
They may be awkward or graceful,
blunt or polite, polished or rustic, ]
care not what they are if the man
means well, and acts from honest in
tentions, without eccentricity or af
fectation. All men have not the ad-
vantages of good society," as it is
called, to school themselves In all its
fantastic rules and ceremonies, and il
there is any standard of manners, ii
is well founded on reason and good
sense, and not upon these artificial
regulations. Manners, like converse
ton, should be extemporaneous and
not studied.
81 always suspect the man that
meets me with the same perpetual
smile on his face, the same bending
of the body, and the same premeditat-
ed shake of the hand. Give me the
hearty-it may be rough grip of the
hand, the careless nod of recognation,
and when occasion requires, the
holnely but welcome situation
Glow are you old friend?"

Anecdotes of Thomas corwin.

Thomas Corwin, the most amusing
and popular of our modern orators,
who kept his audience in a roar, and
often disturbed the gravity of the
United States Senate, regarded his
own life as failure, because he had
not been more successful in serious
veins. A friend relates that he was
riding with Corwin in the summer of
1850, when Corwin remarked of a
speech made the evening before:
SIT was very good, indeed, but in
bad style. Never make the people
laugh. I see that you cultivate that.
1t is easy and captivating, but death
in the long run to the speaker"
''Why, Mr.. Gorwin, you are the
last man living I expected such an
opinion from"
Certainly; because you have not
lived as long as I have. Do you
know, my young friend, that the
world has contempt for the man
who entertains it? One must be sol
emn-solemn as an ass-never say
anything that is not uttered with the
greatest gravity, to win respect. The
world looks up to the teacher and
down to the clown. Yet, nine cases
out of ten, the clown is the better
fellow of the two"
"We who laugh may be well con
tent if we are as successful as you
have BEEN
"You think SO; and yet, were you
to consult an old fellow called Thom-
as Corwin, he would tell you that he
considered himself the worst used |
man in existence; that he had been
sighted, abused and neglected, and
all for set of fellows who look wise
and say nothing"
Corwin was of very dark complex
ion, and ugly. Once he saw a poll
ticians name in a hotel register, and
sought him out, and entered into the
wonted torrent of conversation.
But the dignifed Kentuchan was
taciturn. However, the colored man
got him connected with family of
Marshalls, and claimed the honor of
having served with one of them.
More and more it began to look like
a case of truant 'nigger, till the right
eloquent ugly man of color had col
lected a small crowd, and began to
tell of having been in Congress with
Clay.
''You in Congress with Mr.. Clay?"
interrupted the Kentuckian-'you in
Congress?"

'ETom Corwin!' exclaimed the 9th
er. ''Excuse me, my dear sir, I
thought you were some runaway ne
