WRESTLING. - We believe in
WhistLing We love to hear it
and we love to do it. The boy or
man at the ploW who whistles in
dicateS that he is cOntented, and
he will p!OW more than your ST
tent, glum one ''WbO hath no mu-
sic in his SOUL" nor in his lips.
The man who don't believe in
Whistling should go a step farth-
er, and put muzzle on 0Ob0tinks
and mocking birds, Whistling is
4 great institution. It oils the
wheel Of care and supplies the
place of sunshine. A man who
whistles has q good heart under
his shirt front. Such a NAH not
only works more willingly than
any other man, but he works more
constantly. A WhistIing cObbler
will earn as much again money as
a cord wainer who gives way to
low spirits and Indigestion. Mean
or avariciOuS men never whistle.
Who ever heard Of a whistler
among the sharp practitioners of
Wall street? We pause for an an
swer. The man who attacks
whistling throws stone at the
head Of hilarity, and would, if he
could, rob June of its roses and
August of its meadow larkS. Such
man should be looked tO.-OhiO

AN IN NCIDERT AT YUMA LAND
ING.
CAsSXREANoA,S MULE.

The mule stood on the steamboat deck,
The land he would not tread;
They pulled halter round his neck,
And whacked him DER the head.
Yet firm and steadfast there he stood,
AS though formed tor 80 rule;
a critter of heroic mould,
Was that there stubborn mule.
Thry cassed and swore-he woald not 60
Until be felt lucined:
And though they showered blow on blow,
He wouldn't change his mind.
The deck hands to the shore then cried,
This here mules bound to stay"
Aud still upon the critters hide
With lash they fred away.
The master from the shore replied
The boats about 10 sail,
And every other means you've tried.
Suppose you twist his tail.
It's likely that will make him land u
The deck man, brave though pale,
Approached him with MS outstretched hand
To twist that there mules tail.
Then came a sudden kick behind
The man-0h, where was he
Ask of the softly blowing wind
The fishes in the sea.
For moment there was not sound,
AS that mule wirked bis eye,
As though to ask Of those around,
Nov, how is that for high?"
"Cut that there mules throat right away"
The captain did command,
But the noblest critter killed that day
Was the fearless, brave deck hand.
