FRIDAY, JULY Il, 1874.
TIE HABIT OF PRETTING.


Fretting is both useless and un-
necessary. It does no good. and
a great deal of harm; vet it is al
most a universal sin. More or
less, we are all given to it We
tret over almost everything-in
summer because it is too hot; in
winter, because it is too cold.
We fret when it rains because il is
TOO wet, and when it doesn't rain,
because it is dry; when we arc
sick, or when anybody else is sick.
In short, if anything or every
thing doesn't go just to suit our
particular whims and fancies, we
have one grand, general refuge
To fret over it. am afraid that
fretting is much more common
among women than among men.
We may as well own the truth, nv
fair sisters, If it isn't altogether
pleasant. Perhaps it is because
the little worries and cares and
Vexations of daily life harass our
sensitive nerves more than the
extensive enterprises which gen
orally take the attention OF men.
Great wants develop great re-
sources; but the little wants and
worries are hardly provided for,
and, like the nail that strikes the
saw, they make not much of a
mark, but they turn the edges ter
ribly. l think that If we look
upon all the little worries of one
DAY as great united worry, self
control to meet it would be devel-
oped. But as they generally come
one or two little things at a time,
they seem so very little that we
give way, and the breach once
made in the wall soon grows large.
don't believe in the cant that a
woman must always, under all and
any circumstances, wear a smiling
face when her husband comes
home, or that she needs to take
her hands out of the dough, or
drop the baby on the floor, to run
and meet him at the door. But ]
do believe-nay, l know for j
now oSCh ~ WIN III own CIV Cc
among my friends-that many q
woman has driven u kind husband
away from her, away from his
home and its sacred influences
and caused him to spend his time
at a billiard table OF in a drinking
saloon, and their profane infiu
ences, by ceaseless fretting Ovel
trifies which were not worth {
word, much less the peace anC
happiness of home.
/ know that many a mother hat
turned her son against her owl
sex, and made him dread and dis
like the society of women, by hel
example constantly set before him
L know that many a mother ha,
brought up and developed ;
daughter just like herself, who, il
her turn, would wreck and ruiz
the comfort of another family cir
Gle. And knowing all this, my sis
ters-and brothers too, if the,
need it, know that we ought u
set our faces like flint against thi
useless, sinful, peace destroying
and Misunderstanding habit offret
ting. z

OLD TINE sTEAMBOATING.
Racing ON the River Thirty Years Ago
-HOw Business Was Done and Who
Done it.


(From the PIttsburg Commercially
In the spring of 1874 Captain
Charles Stone brought out his new
Pittsburg and Cincinnati packet
Monongahela. She was q splendid
boat, being 2l5 feet long. Though,
perhaps, she did not prove as fast
as was expected, she always made
good time when she was In good
condition, and would arrive at va
rious points between the two cities
almost with the regularity of a
railroad train at the present time.
She left on her first trip on Mon
day. AS the Swiftsure No. 3 had
been leaving ON that day, lively
times were expected between the
two boats. Capt. Charles Stone
was too unwell TO go out on her
himself, so he put her in charge of
his brother. He told his pilot,
Tom Jones, that he expected that
Capt. Robinson, of the Swiftsure,
would fight for the day, and would
likely try to get his boat back to
this city ahead on the first up trip,
and concluded by saying, "You
must bring the MonongahelA in
first" Nothing occurred on the
down trip. Each boat made prep
arations for what was generally ex-
pected would take place on the |
way up. When the Monongahela |
got through with her business at |
Cincinnati, she started, and was |
followed steadily by the Swiftsure.
After. gaining steadily for some |
time, she reached the stern of the
Monongahela. Her engineer then
choked her down to gather a full |
head of steam. This being accom-
plished, he gave her full throttle,
the pilot ut the same time holding
over to the left. Tom Jones held
his boat ever ut the same time so
strongly that the Swiftsure was
compelled to stop, in order to keep
of the shore. She tried il again on
the other side with the same result.
Capt. Stone was very much
alarmed, and told Tom Jones to let
her pass IL she could. The latter
replied: Captain Charley told me
to take this boat into Pittsburg
first, aud l am going to obey that
order" Captain Robinson was SO
much enraged by Jones that he
brought q gun out of his room to
shoot him, and very likely would II
have done it IL he had not been re-
strained by some of his crew aud
The Swiftsure made
one more effort to get by, but the
gun had not converted Jones, so he
sent her to shore again. Captain
Robinson then gave up the race in
disgust and commenced doing his
regular business, aud Tom Jones
took his boat into Pittsburg first,
according to contract. 4
All the old bOatmel and many
old citizens remember Tom Jones.

de was undoubtedly one of the |
best pilots OF his day, aud il was
said of hun that he had heart rs
big as butchers block. On one
occasion there was poor family
on the wharf in "A destitute condi-
ton. The father was sick, the
mother-worn down with the
children-was so poor and emaciat-
ed that she looked like n skeleton,
while the children were crying for
bread. When Jones saw their dis
tress he went up to the corner of
Wood street and the wharf, where
there was number of boatmen
standing, and told them he had
taken one dollar stock in heaven.
He then told them what lac had
seen, and asked each how much
stock he would take, and kert on
till he raised enough to send the
family comfortably provided for
their destination.
In lS45, after the great fire, while
the Monongahela House was being
rebuilt, j. Med. CrOssan took
charge of the Office on the Monon-
gahela, requiring the fare to be
paid when the name was regis
tered. Previous to the adoption of
that rule, passengers would come
on board, register their names, Sc
lect their rooms, and pay when
they chose. Often the clerk would
have to hunt them up just before
they reached their destination.
But that was not the worst feature
in hn oil a. a.
tried to dodge their fare. In that
day one of the regular packets sell
dom left the wharf with an unoc-
cupied berth, SO that the greatest
loss was that passengers would of
ten come ON board, register their
names, then go ashore and never
return, something having occurred
which caused them to change their
minds. Others would go aboard
and find the rooms all full accord
ing to the register, and would seek
another boat. when perhaps the
clerk would discover, after the boat
was under way, that he had several
empty berths. Mr. Crossan told
Captain Stone what he was going
to do and asked him to sustain him,
as he apprehended some trouble.
Tho hrst serious objection raised
against it was by party of South
erners who had previously travelled
on the boat. They felt insulted
and told Mr.. Crossan that they
would recommend Captain Stone
to discharge him, which they did
bnt the captain did not interfere
and the rule was soon adopted by
other boats, and is still in operation
on all passenger boats. CrOssaI
has been for years the proprietor o
the Monongahela House in thii
city, and by his gentlemanly de
pertinent, his close attention Il
business and his great administra
tive ability, has given it the name

of its members belonging to the
Order OF the Patrons Of Husban-

lies who had joined the Fox Lake

action in so doing was in direct OPP
position to the rule of the church
forbidding Catholics to take part
In organizations Of a secret char

suooT1NG AFFAIR ATDARKEs -

Il
VILE We learn the following
particulars Of a shooting affair
which occurred in Darkcsville, this
county, on Tuesday evening: Mr..
David Stewards son of Robert Stew
art, Esq, who resides near the vii
lage, was at the blacksmith shop
having some work done, when Mr..
Thos. Observation-Disclosures whom
and the Stewards long-standing
feud has existed--came along and
made threatening demonstrations
towards young Stewart, who left
the shop and went to the residence
of one of the villagers for the pur-
pose of getting away from Van
metre. When the blacksmith had
finished the work young Stewart
had left with him, he sent him
word to that effect, and he went
back to the shop. Vanmetro was
still there, and again made threat
ening demonstrations, when young
Stewart left and went home, and
arming himself with revolver he
returned. His father, Robert Stew
art, Esq, learning OF his sons in
tentions, at once started for the
village. He and his son arrived, by
different roads, at about the same
time. When young Stewart APP
preached the blacksmith shop he
saw Vanmetre In the road, hold
ing a brick in his hand In the atti-
tude Of throwing it at HIM. He
thereupon drew his revolver and
fired three shots at Vanmetre, ore
of which took effect In the left
thigh, the BALI passing entirely
through and lodging in the right
thigh, from which at last accounts
it had not been extracted. 1t is
also reported that Mr.. Robt. Stew
art, in the midst of the excitement,
drew his revolver and snapped
three barrels at Vanmetre's breast,
but the weapon missed fire every
time.
We do not youch for the correct
ness, in detail, of the above state
ment, as our informant was not an
eye witness ofthe affair. Mr.. Van
metres injuries, it is said, will not
prove serious, being only flesh
wounds.
