THE FATHER OF HIS COUNTRY.

II N
DELAWARE WATER GAP. Delaware River, near
Stroudsburg, Pa, Aug. 22.-The most vivid ana
general association which Americans, young
and old. have with this river Is iniconnection
with Washington, who, they are sure, crossed
it,'somewhere at some time, though it would
puzzle most of them, opine, to give localities
and dates. Happening by some unacco untsb'e
chance to remember that Washington crossed
the river near Trenton, Christmas night, IL 76.
and fought the battle Of Trenton the next day,
defeating the enemy and capturing one thou
sand Hessians, thought that would soc il
my memory were any better than the memory
of fsome fellow tourists at the Water Gap
house, asked the quettion. One person
thought that Washington had crossed the Del
aware in IT'S at Philadelphia; another, in ITO
at CASTOR; third, in l777 at Burlington. A
fourth man said that he did not know nor care
anything about 1t; that he had grown 80 tired
OF reading and hearing about Washington I hat
he never wanted TO read or hear anything more !;
that he had come to the conclusion that the
father of his country (with sneer) was d.
old humbug anyhow.
II is remarkable how general this feeling is
with the present generation. The mere name,
the father of his county, has grown to be
SUGGESTIVE OF JOKE,
and is commonly coupled with the ludicrous.
Scarcely any reference is made to Washington
seriously. HIS Ratchet and the cherry tree and

jests as those on plumbers and mothers in law,
and ought to have expired long ago by limits-
ton. This Is, OF course, the eaction from the
supreme laudstion of Washington, from the
time OF his death up to twenty five years sgo.
We had been taught so persstently to beli eve
that he had no faults that We resented it as an
the goody -goody man, as we imagined him to
be. We should have liked him better il he had
had more talent for Justification and had done
some wholesome SHINING. Theodore Parker
once said that it was . comfort to know that
Washington could swear. He coHld sw sar on
occasion, and do other highly improper things !;
so that we nay as well accept him as creature
Of our own world.
His fame Of perfection has injured his mem
DRY good deal, and another generation will
have to grow up TO appreciate Washington rs
great man who had as many defects as are
required to prevent him from appearing intol-
erably faultless. Nothing hurts public or

cal age, than TO. represent him without flaw.

A sheep should be lifted by placing
the arms around the body and near the
forelegs. This is the easiest way to do,
especially with large sheep. To catch
the animal, the hands should be thrown
about the neck, or else the sheep should
be caught by the hind leg immediately
above the hook. This latter may bo
done with the hand or the crook, and
when this way is adopted the utmost

sheep gently drawn back until the other
