The condition Of human happiness
is engagement; and when the mind
of man is not engaged in the exer-

naturally seeks the attendant balm
of engagement by some means other

incessant activity, is one of the char
acteristicsofthe hnman mind. There
is shift common among some peo-
pie, by which they cndcavor to chase
away the discomfort and cnnui, ever
springing from idleness, which is to
be greatly deprecated. 1t is popu-
larly known under the name of "loaf-
ing" Now, we wish to say nothing
to the disparagemcnt of loafers, for
we remember among them some off
true friends, or at least We think so.
Some Of these gentlemen, and we
speak of them with that respect
which is due a gentleman, are men of

something to exercise itself upon,
must needsprey uponitself, and like a
snake that was not conscious of its

These gentlemen Of leisure are a
cause of much, and unintended

A Suit ofCIothes for a Song.

asked Farinelli. Because" said the
trembling tailor, Il have a desire for

mable value, and reserved for mon

Farinelli strove in vain to change
his resolution and induce him to re-
ceive the money. The tailor was
immovable. At last the great artist
acccded to his request. Resolved
that the enthusiast should be fully
gratifed, he exhibited before him
all his wondrous skill, after which
the tailor, fairly intoxicated with
delight, prepared to withdraw, but
Farinelli stopped him. Il am very
sensitive" said he, "andit is possibly

The Parsons Turkey.

Halfa century ago, when the in
come of a dissenting preacher in
England was not very large, his sal
ary was often supplemented by a
bountiful supply of provisions from
the wcll-to-do members Of his congre-
CATION. A Baptist minister in Hert-
fordshire used at Christmas time to
be positively inundated with hampers
filed with good things. On one oc-
casion an enormous turkey was sent
to him by the thoughtful kindness of
a neighboring farmer; but, as the
minister's family had already pro-
vided for the Christmas dinner, the
bird was sent into the market and
sold. a passer-by, seeing this fine
specimen Of poultry, said, "What a
splendid turkey! Just the thing for
the parsons Christmas dinner"
And to the "parson" it was sent.
The prudent wife sent it a second
time to the market, and sold it again
for a handsome sum. Another friend,
similarly struck with the magnif-
cent proportions Of the turkey, pur-
chased it, and also sent it to the
"parson. Not wishing to fly in the
face of Providence, the good man said,
at last, at is very clear that the
Lord means us to have this turkey"
and, with the entire appreciation of
the family, it formed part of the
Christmas dinner.

IlunloruS.

The following incident is said to
have occurred in 4 restaurant: A
man recently entered the place and
ordered a very elaborate dinner. He
fingered long at the table, and finally
wound up with a bottle of wine
Then, Lighting a cigar he had order
ed, he leisurely sauntered up to the
counter and said to the proprietor,
every fine dinner, landlord. Just
charge it to me; haven't got SOU"
@But I don't know you," said the
proprietor indignatly.
@of course You don't. If you had,
YOU wouldn't have let me had the
dinner"
,"Pay me for the dinner, L say!a.
aAnd say l can't"
@I'll see about that" said the pro-
prietor, who snatched pistol out Of
a drawer, leaped over the counter
and collared the man, exclaimins as
he took aim at his head, "now see if
you'll get away with that dinner
without paying forit, YOU scoundrel!'
@What is that you hold in your
hand?7 said the impccunious Gus
toner, drawing back.
@That, Sir, is a pistol, Sir
"0h, that's pistol, is it? | don't
care a fig for pistol; | thought it
was a stomach-pump."

The dart OF love was teathered first
From Folly's wing, they say,
Until he stroye his shaft to shoot
In Beauty's heart one day;
He miss'd the maid so oft, It's said
His aim became untrue;
And Beauty laugh'd as his last shalt
He from his quiver drew!
"Forbear," cried she, "to shoot at me,
You little spiteful thing!
The feather on your shaft l scorn
When plucked from Folly's wing"
But Cupid soon fresh arrows found,
And fitted to his string;
And each new shaft he ieathered from
His own bright, glossy wing!
He shot until no plume was left
To wait him to the sky;
And Beauty smiled upon the child
When he no more could fly;
"Now, Cupid, am thine" she said,
"Come, cease thine archer play;
For Beauty yields when she is sure
Love will not FLY AWAY"

We are inclined TO think now that
Grant has been greatly underated:
They say it took him four days only,
Sunday included, to write his Arkan-
sas message. The accomplishment
of such an amount Of rascality in
four days ought to stamp him as a
man of genius, whether it does or
not.

Uncle Billy Objects to Civil
Rights.

l interviewed Uncle Billy, good
colored friend of mine, the other day.
on the question of civil rights.
"Don't want muffin mo, said Uncle
Billy. aGot too much alreadyfur dis
niggah." .
'.How is that, Uncle Billy? It j:
not a thing to be equal before the
law?7
4Now, Marse Boss" grunted Billy,
plaintivcly, "dar's jist whar de misery
comes in. We're ekal befo' de law,
an dar yer hit our weak pint. Befo'
de law, eff nisgah stole chicken an
pig, yer jerked him up, guv him
thirty.nine lashes, an let him go.
But jist let a cullcd pusson try it
now! Yer hauls him fore Court an
sens him to de pcnitentiary just like
he was one of yer poor white trash.
OATS what tits to be ekal fore de lawr'
suggested to Uncle Billy that this
might be obviated by being a little
more honest.
"Marse Boss interrupted Billy,
swc can't run agin natur. It's nat
raj fur nisgah 70 steal pig and chick
en-, fryia' size. Yer know it is, an
faint no use tryin' to stop us. Now
we uns are wilIin' tolet You uns alone,
and you all jist let US alone on this
pint. We're powerful weak on dis
pint Marse Boss"
Just here a perversc and disloyal
spirit tempted me TO hint to Uncle
Billy that the colored people were
indebted 20 their Republican friends
for this change in their status.
swell, den, Marse Boss" said he,
aall Is got to say is, de laws got to
be changed. Mus hab law for dc
white man and a law for de black
man."
Strange as it may seem, some of
our best citizens echo Uncle Billy's
sentiment. They are inclined to
view the negro's minor transgres-
sions in lenient light, and l know
that some of our Democratic judges
impose lighter penalties upon colored
men for small offenses than they
would do in cases where the guilty
parties were white.
Before Uncle Billy left Iaskcd him
how he would like to sit down at the
table with white folks at the hotels.
@Great Goddlcmighty!" exclaimed
the good old man. "I allow youse
tryin' tomake fun o dis chile. Why,
you knows yourself dat no cullud
person ebber lets a white man see
'em eat if dey kin help it."
This is strictly true. The ordina-
ry Southern negro will not eat in the
presence of "a white spectator.
"Well, Uncle Billy" said, ''it is
very evident that YOU don't want
any civil rights"
sNot anything mo-. | thank you,"
replied Billy. NEARLY done ruined
now. Hev to pay my own doctors
bill; lost all my money in the Freed
mems Bank; nebber got no forty acres
an de mule dey promised me; an
can't help myself to little chicken,
fryin' size, widout gwine to de peni-
tentiary. rse got ffcibbiirights!"
The above is no production OF the
fancy. 1t is a true incident, homes
ly told, and it is impossible to talk
to the country negroes without hear
ing just such things as l have relat-
