No SchOOlmaster wanted.

Some years ago some emigrants
| from Ohio and Illinois settled in a lit
| tie town in this State and soon began
/ to agitate for the erection of q school,
house and the employment of a teach
eT. A town meeting was called to
consider the proposition; and one Ol
| the Northerners made a neat little
speech, telling of the blessings which
education had brought with it to Ohio
and Illinois.
When he had sat down, an old
man in the corner arose, gave the Gus
tomary hitch to his corduroys, pushed
back his hat a tritie, and answered
thus: stranger, up in yer Ohio State
you've got a big penitentiary full OF
people; h'aint yer ? Well, yer've got
larnin' up thar Up in yer Illinois
State yer'ye got big pententiary full
of people; yer've got larnin' thar :
But I've lived here for thirty-seven
years in peS0e aud happiness. I've
raised niue Boys. and tew gals, and /
sleep perfAetiy sound o. night, 'cos I
amt 'fraid any of my boys III go to
the penItenitarY for fOrgin' notes, 'cOs
they antnone oi 'em writs I' (Sen-
satiOn in the audience and sympathy
manifested Another of the new
comers then spoke, arguing in favor
of education ; and then 4 tall, lank
native stood uD. and ifixing the
Northerner with his glittering eye,"
made his speech. ''See here, mister
amt you the machine man ?'' "Yes," "
said he; 81 did sell some machines
here last year" "Wa'al, when the
wheat got ripe, all the people went to
neighbOr JOhnsOn's to see how yer
mowin' machine would operate. We
got the tarnel thing into the field, and
neighbOr johnson he hitched his
young FLY into the shafts. She al
lers was fractions critter, and the
first thing we knOwed she gave q

just about two weeks yer pardner came
round sellin' wooden legs, and neigh
Dor johnson had to buy one of them
'ere things. Nice eddicated people
you are ! You understand it, you do
Fust you sell the machines, and then

indianapolis Journal on Spring /:
Yesterday was a harbinger of spring.
The celestial canopy was deOppilated
from any visible eondensatiOns of gas-
eous or evapOrable hypOstasis, while
the fervoriferous rays of the sun pro-
jeeted themselves with potential and
calefactOry effect. During most OF
of the atmosphere prevailed. at once
salutiferous aud yivifying. The. .Orni-
thons were quite depeOpled OF their
hibernal occupants, who pursued their
aerial dispOrtment with unwOntsd
vitality. The highways were meas
urably dephlegmated, the tide OF
humanity was mOvent in the public
tbOrougbfares, and wood dropped
twenty-five cents a cord.
