LYING YOUNG MAN POSTED THEA oN ulsoRTlc
SPOTS.
From the Detroit Free Press.
On the train the other day were very
confding old man and a very innocent old
lady Iney had passed away fye-sixtls Of
their lives hidlenaway behind the hills ofVer-
mont, aud were going to western Michigan
on a visit to their son. After l.ttle skir
mishing round, the OLD gentleman pitched
into me about the "crops,' isle, and
when found how innocent he was, gave
him all the information could. All at once,
as he rode along, the wife caught his arm
and exclaimed:
Look out, Samuel, or youU be forget
ting that place where they fit"
The Old man explained. He said that a
Young man who came down from Canada
with them, told them to look out for the
battle field Of B7addock's defeat rs soon as
he left Detroit.
was going to reply that tie young man
was an Internal liar, bat the old lady seemed
| to have set her heart on seeing the spot, and
1 the old man was SO anxious that | couldn {
/ bear to disappoint them. When we got
down into the woods pointed out the bat
tie field and they pat their heads out OF
the windows and took in the scene.
- Think of it, Hlnner," exclaimed the
old man, as he drew in his head "think Of
them Iuiuns creeping through them woods
and shooting Mr.. Bradiock down dead
''My soul" replied the old lady, seem
ingly overcome at the idea, and she kept he;
ewes on the woods until thought She would
twist her neck of.
We got along all right for about five miles
more, and the old man wanted to know i
we weren't down pretty near the spot where
Tecumseh fell.
"Where?'' yelled, and he said that tie
same young man had informed him that tht
railroad ran close to the spot where the great
Indian warrior fell and slept.
It'll be a powerful favor to me an Sam
uel if yell point out the spot urged The
old lady, placing her hand on my arm.
How could 90 back on what that brazer
Young man had said? The old folks haC
made up their minds to see the spot, and
| didn't show it to them they might wOrrl
for weeks, and they might think the youn:
man had lied, or that wasn't posted in tn
historic spots of my own State. Lor' tOrgiv

hill and said

Tecumseh."
"Think of it, Hanner-just think of it :
exclaimed the old man; right there l
where they got him.
Mercy! but it don't seem possible" sh
: calculated, and she had to get out her snui
box before she could recover from the shock
The old gentleman said he hnd particu
, lar interest in seeing the spot, because h
knew the man who had killed Teeumseh-
used to live right by him.
"He must have been an awful lnJGn,
broke in the old lady, for the young ma
said he didn't die till they had cut off h
head, and feet, and hands, and blowed tn
body up with a barrell Of powder"

TIVE DECLINE OF MANyves.-lt cannot be
denied that there has been general decay
Of manners. Our sociel tree shows tie de-
csy of breeding at the top ss well as a. the
root. Not only has there come over tns
general manner Of our gentlemen certain
free-and-easy bearing, but they have per-
uitted themselves in many things TO d5res
card the comfort and rights OF others. how
many men claiming 20 be gentlemen, and
even recognized az srch, persistently smoke
| in the streets, to the intense discomfort Of
all ladies and many men What right hss
a person who thus deliberately imposes the
unnleasantness of personal habit upon
others to complain, if his selfshuess Is init
a ted nv his interiors? What right has the
ladv or gentleman who disregards the com
| fort of a public audience, by coming late or
| leaving untimely, to wonder il this supreme
lv uncourteous selfshness IS copied and en-

cool disregard of eyerybody's rights or con-
