An Essay on Brothers.

A Maryland srhoolmaster told q
refractory girl that unless she
wrote a composition he would pun
ish her. She appeared with two
big brothers. The pedagogue laid
a revolver on his desk and called
for the composition. 1t took her
about ten minutes to indite
the following sentiment: "There
air various kinds of big brothers.
Sum wonld stand up for sister
under any circumstances. Int there
air some lily-livered, slat-sided mum
grels, who air n cross between a
Gibrawter jackass and a Maltese
Jew, who would sit around like a
rat hole while a red-headed, cock
eyed slab of unrespectful poverty
wanders around with a borrowed
pop, and makes their poor sister
paw around fur the materials fur a
composition"

A Cleveland LAWYER defending

A Cleveland lawyer defending a
handsome young lady charged with
larceny, closed his appeal to the
Jury thus: "Gentleman; you may
hang the ocean on grapevine to
dry, lasso an avalanche, pin nap
kin to the mouth of a volcano,
skim the clouds from the sky with
a teaspoon, throw salt on the tail
of our noble American eagle, whose
sleepless eye watches over the well
fare of the nation; paste ''for
rent" on the moon and stars; but
never for q moment delude your
selves with the idea that this
charming girl is guilty of the
charge preferred against her," The
jury acquitted her without leaving
their seats.

THAT APRIL JOKE.

The item in regard t. lie burning of
the county Jail, which as published in
our last issue, was intended merely for
a joke upon the people of the town and
vicinity, many Of whom; overlooking the
fact that the paper was dated the lst Of
April or "all fools das,' aud not heedihg
tlle Warning z iz S 5f .''s'
local column to "loookout for April fools, "
FASTENED to the scene Of the supposed
burn to ascertain the extent Of the dam
ages. All who went to examine the struct
ure, and did not return to their residences
or places o. business by a round abou'
way, stated, either by wv or action, that
the damages, if any, could be easily re
paired while one gentleman, Esquire,
who made closer examination than she
others, Immediately pronounced the report
of the fire falsehood, and wondered what
the world was coming to. But the heaviest
part of the joke seems to have fallen upon
a gentleman from the country, who is not
subscriber to the RECORD, but hearing
the report of the fire, sat down and wrote
message to his brother in Tennessee,
telling all about the circumstance, and
sealed and deposited his letter in the
postofhce before he learned that the whole
mater was "sell out" Another gentle
man, however, with a Pleasant Ridge
of smiles playing over his countenance,
and who is said to be putting and blowing
for new county seat, seemed TO mistake
our motive in writing the article referred
to, at once concluded that the paper was
very nninteres.ing. and requested us to
discontinue his subscription. AS he was
a subscriber son tick" we could not have
the face to urge him to continue, and 80
scratched him off our list. Now, if his
great-grandmother should die land if she
has not already she probably will, and
the fact be published in the RECORD, he.
of course, will never fnd it out.
Now let us point the moral in this little
April Jest. 1t is this: Take your county
paper, pay for it in advance, read itcare-
fully, (date lines and all,) heed what it
contains, have a reasonable amount Of
confidence in human nature and the
alleged well meaning of your fellow-men,
and you will be happy.
