We allude to the excursions by which
the children of the poor are taken from
sitting heats and sickening odors of the
shines of New York, and given an OPP
portunity to breathe fresh air, roam
through green fields and tangled woods,
and for few hours at any rate, revel in
the sweet beauties of nature. Nine of
these excursions have been had. and
during the last one no less than fifteen
hundred children participated in its
pleasures. The Herald says that the
blessings of this charity is so great that
it is wonder that it was not thought OF

A QUAKER PRINTERS PROVERBS

A QUAKER PRINTERS PROVERBS
Never send thou an article for publica,
ton without thy name, for thy name Of
tentimes secures publication to worthless
articles.
Thou shouldst not rap at the door of a
printing office, for he who answereth the
rap sneereth in his sleeves and thereby
loseth time.
Neither do thou loaf about, ask ques-
tions, nor knock down type, or the boys
will love thee as they do the shade trees
when thou leaveth.
Thou shouldst never read the copy on
the printers case, or on the sharp and
hooked container thereof, or he may
knock thee down.
Never inquire thou of an editor for
news, for behold it is his business to give
it to thee at the appointed time without
asking.
1t is not right that thou shouldst ask
him who is the author of an article, for
it is his duty to keep such things unto
himself.
When thou dost enter his office, take
heed unto thyself that thou dost not look
at what may be lying open and concern
eth thee not, for that is not meet in the
sight of good breeding.
Neither examine thou the proof-sheet,
for it is not ready to meet thine eye, thou
mayest understand.
Prefer thine own town paper to any
other and subscribe for it Immediately.
Pay for it in advance and it shall be
well with thee and thine.

GOOD REToRT.-Nesmith, of Oregon,
is great joker and occasionally gets off
some splendid hits on the members Of
Congress. A Washington letter writer
tells one Of these as follows:
Nesmith served one term in the SEN
ate several years ago, and few days
after he was sworn in he was passing one
of the cloak rooms, and inside were Fes-
gen1en, Morrill,, and several others whose
names we cannot recall. They hailed
him, invited him in, and after conversing
a few moments asked him very abruptly {:
Mr.. Nesmith, you have come from a
very wild country, where you say the
greater part Of your life has been passed.
Will you tell us what first struck you on
coming to the Senate p
Well, gentlemen, when / took my
seat in the august body, said to be com
posed of the brains Of this great country,
was overwhelmed with the strangeness
of the one idea, how l came to be here. ;
'Oh ah ugh so And then, Mr..
Nesmith, what then-what was your next
cause for wonder p
The next thing, gentlemen answered
Ne'mith, slowly gathering up bis great
length, that came to me and puzzled me
more than the first thought was, how in
the deuce all you other fellows got here ?
There was a shout, and from that day
these solemn old fellows who had thought
to over-awe with their pomposity the
crude young Senator, were bis sworn
friends and never neglected an opportun-
ity to tell this story"
