THERE is an excellent opening here for
lawyer and, an honest man.-Ionnfaia Sent'-
mel.
If the Sentinel means to affirm that there is
at La Grande demand for . lawyer. and alss
for an honest man. we dispute the latter part
of the claim: or, if the assertion is meant to be
understood as implying demand for lawyer
who is an honest man, the demand is exorbi-
tant and unreasonable, and evinces in the good
people of La Grande an unusual deficiency In
knowledge Of the principles of the profession
An honest man, in any Of the walks of life, in
this chrome age. would be regarded as lusas
natarae, and like snnlower in cellar, would
die for want Of sustenance But al honest
lawyer! Oh, my! he'd stand less chance tor
his life than even an honest editor.

Paddle Your own Canoe.

Judge s. gave his son 81 600 and told
him to goto college and graduate The
son returned at the end of the freshman
year without dollar and several ugly
habits. About the close of vacation the
Judge said to his son
"Well William, are you going to
college this year?'
Have no money, father"
But gave you ST 900 to graduate
on
That's all gone, father"
Very well, my son, | gave you all 1
could afford to give you; you can't stay
here; You mustnow pay your own way in
the world"
A new light broke in upon the vision
of the young man. He accommodated
himself to the situation, he left home,
made his way through the college, and
graduated at the head of his class-stu-
died law, became Governor of the State
ofNew York, entered the cabinet of the
President of the United States,
and made record for himself that will
not soon die, being none other than Wm.
II. Seward.

An Argument for Marriage.

Powers, the sculptor writing 10
friend Of what people called the folly Of
marrying without the means to support
family, expresses frankly his own fears
when he found himself in this position
but he adds, with characteristic eandor:
''To tell the truth however, "a family and
poverty have done more to support them.
They have compelled me to make exer-
tions which | hardly thought myself ca
pable Of; and often when on the eve of
despairing, they have forced me like
coward in the corner, to fight like
hero--not for myself, but for my wife
and little ones | have now as much
work to do as ] can execute, unless can
find some assistance in the marble; and
/ have a prospect Of further commits
sions" The truth here expressed by the
gifted sculptor is like similar remark
made by gentleman who tried matri-
mony in the same way, and who found
afterwards that the loose change in his
pocket which he had before squandered in
foolish notions young mems whims,
was enough to support a prudent wife,
who, by well-regulated economy, has
proved fortune in herself, and has saved
snug sum of money for her once care
less husband A wife to direct a man
toward proper ambition and to general
economy" he said was like succOr at
sea to save him from destruction on
perilous voyage"

The Fellow that Looks Like me-.

Max Adeler. writes for Philadelphia
paper, has friend named Simmer, who
deserves pity. He was going up to
Reading not long since, and when reach
ing the depot he happened to look in the
lady's room. A woman sat there with a
lot Of baggage and three children, and
when she saw Simmer she rushed to-
wards him, and before he could defend
himself she threw her arms about his
neck, nestled her head upon his breast,
and burst into tears. Simmer was
amazed, indignant, eonfounded, and ere
he could find utteranee for his feelings,
she exclaimed.
20, Henry, dear Henry We are unit
ed at last. Are you well? Is Aunt
Martha still alive Hayn't you longed
to see your own Louisa
And she looked into SINNERS face
and smiled through her tears
Madam, said he, solemnly, ''if |
am the person alluded to as Henry per-
nit me to say that you have made a
mistake. My name is Lemuel, | have
no Aunt Martha, and | don't own a
solitary Louisa. 0blige me by letting go
my coat; it excites remark /"
Size buried her bonnet deeper into his
waistcoat, and began to cry harder than
ever, and said
30, Henry, how can you treat me so I?
How can you pretend that you are not
my husband p
Madam" screamed Simmer, 'if
you don't cease stopping my shirt bosom,
and remove your umbrella from my corn,

me 60 say
The children are here, she persist
ed They recognize their dear father ;
don't you children y
YES, yes" they exclaimed, its pa ;
it's our dear pa"
And then they grabbed Simmer by
his trowser legs and hung to his coat
tail.
Woman p he shrieked, this is
getting serious Unhand me | say
And he tried to disengage himself from
her embrace while all the brakemen and
the baggage master, and the newsboys
stood around and said his conduct was
infamous.
In the midsto of the struggle stranger
entered with carpet-bag He looked
exactly like Simmer when he saw
his wife in SINNERS arms he become
excited, foorcd him with that carpet-bag
aud sat on him, and smote his nose, aud
caromed on his head, and asked him
what he meant Simmer was removed
on stretcher, and the enemy went oa
with his wife aud family in a cab. He
called next day to apologize. His wife
had made the mistake because Of
SINNERS likeness to him. And now
Simmer wishes he may soon be kicked
in the face by mule, so that he viii

world.

Charge Il.

A simple little sentence is this, to be
sure, and yet it may be considered as
one Of the most insidious enemies with
which people have to deal. 1t is very
pleasant to have all the little commodi-
ties offered for sale in the market, and it
is sometimes hard to deny ones self Of
the same when they can be obtained by
saying charge it. But this habit Of
getting articles, however small the charge
may be, without paying for them, keeps
ones funds in a low state most Of the
time.
i have no money to-day, but should
like the article much. says young
man who happens to 60 into a store, and
sees something which strikes his fancy.
Never mind, " says the gentlemanly
clerk +; you are good for it.
well, | viii take it and you may
charge it,
And 50 it is that little accounts arc
opened at one place and another, till the
young man is surprised at his liabilities !;
which though small in detail, are suffi-
ciently large in the aggregate to reduce
his cash materially when settling day
comes.
In many instances, if the cash were
required, the purchase would not be
made even had the person the money by
him; but to some, getting an article
charged does not seem like parting with
an equivalent.
Still when pay day comes, ,as always it
does, this illusion vanishes, and feeling
is experienced Of parting with money and
receiving nothing in return.
