ruE BIRDS NEsT.-Somo of the pecu-
l:arities of Mr.. Birds administration |
have endcavorcd to represent, and one of
these must recall at the risk of rcpeti-
ton aud tedlousnccs In the FIVE years
| spent under his roof and care, | do not
think cne lad left the school with the feel
ing that he had been unjustly treated in
any instance. No bitter reyenges were
cherished in any heart. If, in his haste
or perplexi:y. the master ever did boy
wrong, he made instant and abundant
reparation IN an acknowlcd gment to the
whole schoo, lie was as tender Of the
hamblcst boys reputation as he was of
any mans, or even of bis own. When |
think Of the brutal dcspotsm that reigns
in so many of our schools and other coun-
tries, and Of the indecent way in which
thousands Of sensitive young natures are
tortured bv men who, in the sacred office
of the teacher, display manners that have
ceased to be respectable in a stable,
bless my kind stars-nay, thank Cod
for those five years, and the sweet infu-
ence that has poured froM them ua stea.
dy stream through all my life.
The third summer Of my schcol life was
"Reunion Summer" and one week Of va
cation was devoted to the old BOYS. 1t was
with incxpressibls interest that witness
cd the interviews between them aud their
teacher. Young men from college with
downy whiskers and fashionable clothes
young men in business, with the air oil
business in their manners; young clergy
men, doctors and lawyers came back by
scores. They brought great breeze from
the werld with them, but all became BOYS
again when they entered the presence Of
their old master They kissed him as they
were wont to do 10 the times which had
become old times to them. They hung
upon his neck, they walked up and down
the parlors with their arms around him
they sat ip his lap, and told him of their
changes, troubles and successes. and all
were happy to be at the old nest again.
Ah, what tetes we're crowded into that
happy week what games of ball, what
receptions. what excursions, what meet,
ings and speeches. what songs, what de-
| lightiul nterminglings Of all the social ell
ements of the village What did it mat
ter that we small boys iclt very small by
the side Of those young men whose old
rooms we were occupying2 We enjoyed
their presence, and in it the promise that
at some future time we should come back
with whiskers upon our cheeks and the
last triumphs Of the taller IN our coats.---

SUBSTITUTE FOR COFFEE.

Now that it costs two bushels of corn
to purchase pound Of Old Government
Java, farmers naturally turn their at
tantion, rs they did in the early part OF
the war, to find substitute for coffee.
4 California paper has found in the
sweet potato, sliced, dried and roasted,
the best substitute for the coffee bean.
1t says: Being very wholesome as well
as exceedingly nutritious, it is valuable
substitute for chiccory and theindifferent
article of peas which make up large
portion of the mixture usually sold for
"Pure Ground Coffee" Its rich sac.
charine contents not only diminish the
amount OF sugar required, when it is
used, but so completely agglutinate and
settle the grounds that coffee mixed
with this preparation may be used as
fine as flour without making the infusion
muddy, thus permitting double the or
dinary strength to be obtained from the
coffee itself. The ground sweet potato
may be mixed with one-half its bulk Of
good. pure coffee. This mixture will
cost less than half the price Of pnre
coffee, and by many is decidedly pre-
ferred as matter of taste. More i'm
portant, however, to those who cannot
drink pure coffee, is the consideration
that in the sweet potato there is no head
ache, no excitement of the nerves and
no bilious affection.

JACKSON AND BENTON.

In early life, relates the Marysville
(Ky.) Eagle, there existed bitter feud
between Gen. Jackson and the Bentons.
This at last eliminated in n tavern-tight
with pistols and sword canes in Nash
vile, Tenn, in which Jackson and his
friend, Col. Coffee, and the two Ben
tons-Thomas H. and Jesse-partici-
pated. The result was that Col. Benton
planted bullet in the fleshy part of
Gen. Jackson's S arm, which the old hero
carried until his second Presidential
term, when it was extracted by DIR.
Jackson, celebrated Philadelphia sur
geon. During the closing year of his
last Presidential term, Gen. Jackson
had occasional and violent attacks of
hemorrhage of the lungs, and DR.. Lewis
Field Linn, of Missouri, the colleague
of Col. Benton in the Senate, was his
physician. The bitter feud having long
before been settled, Col. Benton was a
frequent visitor at the White House,
and was specially attentive during the
illness of his former foe DIR. Linn,
feeling himself justified by his inti-
macy with the parties, ventured to ask
their version of the Nashville rencoun-
ter. Benton, yon tell it, was the re-
sponse of Old Hickory. "No, Jack
son, I'll leave it to you; yoar account
will be correct" and, pending the dis
cussion, the two ancient foemen were
crying like children. f3a

NEW MEXICO CURRENCY.

Ready money is not very plentiful
among the settlers of Texas and New
Mexico, and many are the shifts and
"dickers y resorted to for the procure
ment of desired articles. For instance,
an old bedstead, with no cloud upon
the titbs," was advertised for sale III a
recent issue of the Elpaso Tex Sentt-
ncl, and the editor soon after received a
letter from a man in Los Cuscio, n.
NJ, stating that he wanted the bedstead,
but having no cash to invest he offered
as an equivalent three pairs of cavalry
pants, partly worn one sheep-skin for
saddle cloth one bride which cost
s. and is put in at 50 and Que sack
coat which has been worn only thirty
nine times. The writer thinks this a
fair compensation for a secondhand
bedstead, in which opinion he is un-
doubtedly correct.
