The YagabOnd Sage.

An old man of very active physiog.
nomy, was brought to the police court.
His clothes looked as if they might have
been bought secondhand in his youth
full prime; for they had suffered more
from the ruLs of the world than the pro.
prietor himself.
"What business"
"None; I'm traveller.
"a vagabond, perhaps?
"You are not far wrong. Travellers
and vagabonds are about the same thing.
The difference is that tho latter travels
without money and the former without
brains.
"Where have you traveled?'
"All over the Continent.
"For what purpose
"Obscryation.
"What have You obseryed?'
"a little to commend. much to cen.
sire, and great deal to laugh at.
"Humph! What do you commend?'
"a handsome woman that will stay at
home, an eloquent preacher that will
preach short sermons, good writer that
will not write too much. and fool that
has sense enough to hold his tongue.
"What do you censure|
"a man that marries girl for her fine
clothing, youth who studies medicine
while he has the Use of his hands, and
the people who will elect drunkarl 10
Office"
"What do you laugh at?"
81 laugh at man who expects his po-
sition to command that respect which his
personal qualifications and qualities do
not merit"
He was dismissed -Erchange.

IlnM He Mas Laid.

1t was in smoking-car on the Hudson
river road. A New Yorker was exhibit
ing an invention to several gentlemen,
when an old farmer, with settled look
of BADNESS on his face, heaved a sigh and
said:
~ never see such thing without
wanting to weep"
Nothing about this invention to
weep over, that can see, replied the
inventor.
oval, it sort O calls up old recollec-
tions. Twenty years ago this fall I
thought had fortune in my grasp.
Yes sir, believed ! had struck the big
gest thing since steam was brought into
use"
"What was it?"
"One day when the old woman was
fiat down with her lame leg l had to
cook my own dinner. After I'd got the
pancake. batter all fixed up l couldn't
find the CREASED rag the old woman used
to rub over the spider. Sort O absent
minded like Ipicked up piece ofraw tnr-
NIP from the table and used it instead.
Ii worked to a charm no smell, no
smoke, no stick.
He paused here to wipe away tear
and then continued.
"There was the fortune. / figured
that 5000, 600 creased rags We're used in
this country five months i'll the year.
Fifty thousand barrels of grease We're
used up greasing spider. Over $4,000
wasted and gone. Cine turnip would
make six greasers l,0t0 bushels would
make enough to supply the country.
All that was needed was TO cut them up
into fancy style, afiix d handle, and so
to supply the demand at 10 cents each. "
"Ihere was money in it.
"No, there wasn't. | bought 100
bushels of turnips, $50 worth OF wire,
and hired two men to so to work, and
then took q greaser and went over irto
Vermont to see how it would take; they
would not have it. They had something
more siAple and much cheaper"
"What could it have been?"
"They spit ON the spider |" replied
the old man, as Il tear made n break
down his nose and was swallowed up in
thc dust on the hoor.- H'aN Street

The Mining Prospects.

Behold the prospector who Wandereth
over the face oi the earth.
He traverscth the hills and pcketh the
barren mountains with his pick.
The pnngs of hunger grip his bowels
in the morning, and Mt night he leth
down with only Il blanket to cover him.
And the graybacks come forth and
rcnd him.
And he lifteth up a voice of lamenta-
fiou IN the wilderness and cries aloud to
heaven:
why has this aliliction come upon
me, and why do the terrors OF hell COM
PASS me round about?'
And while he sleeps the wolves devour
his substance.
And when he fndcth the groupings he
diqgcth in the ground and tacketh up
tLc location notice on the board.
Tben he hieth TO the valleys and say
eth to the capitalist:
{" Hcarkcn unto me for ] have struck
if bio. Here are the samples from the
,rolnd and behold the gold maketh
lousy thc rock with richness.
And the twain return to lind others
toiling upon the claim.
And the prospector graspeth his gun,
saying; -. Co.. n;, :.
a Ipd a fire coming out of the bush
smites him on tho hip, and he calleth
with loud voice: -
II am done for; take off my boots. "
And they hasten to take oil his boots
and the fragrance Of his socks reacheth
unto heaven.
And lie giveth up his ghost and is
gathered to his fathers. =,

Advice to Young Men.

Tt would be well if the following bit
of good advice, taken from an exchange,
was stereotyped upon the mind and
photographed upon the heart Of every
Young man in the land: "Never use a
Iady's name at an improper place, or at
an improper time, or in mixed COM
pany. Never make assertions about
her that you think are untrue, allusions
that you feel she herself would blush to
hear. When you meet with men who
do not scruple to make use of wo-
mans name i'm a reckless and unprin-
cipled manner, shun them, for they
are the very worst members Of the
community-men lost to every sense
of honor, every feeling of humanity.
Many good and worthy woman's
character has been forever ruined,
and her heart broken, by lie. con-
cocted by some william, and repeated
where it should not have been, and
i'm the presece of those whose judg-
men could not deter them from circu-
lating the foul report. "A slander il
soon propagated, and the smallest
thing derogatory to woman's charac.
ter will fly on the wings of the wind
and magnify as it circulates, until it,
monstrous weight crushes the poor un
conscious victim. Respect the women

"FOreignGr'' to ''Farmer.'

E>I. ReglSteT-
Glad to see that "Farmer" has 20
courteously and so well answered the
editorial comments" Of your boy, who
in your absence eschewed the compos-
ing stick for the opposing pencil. |
have yet few questions to PROFOUND
to "Farmer" that / may derive from
his answers some truer ideas on the
proper polity and safer currency ques-
tinns; as well as more agreement with
him in his belief lnaG there is nothing
communistIc in his platform, the sec
Ond article of which states chat ''1Iand,
which Oy the right Of eminent domain
is common property" &c.
L would ask him, Whence his great
antipa'h.v To 'Greenback?" If mis- dis
like extend only TO the silly name,
truly, all persons OF taste will agree
with him that it were better TO use the
proper one, Treasury notes." the
same used ny the Missouri Republican
lately-20th ult.-in the editorial which
states that "the permanent national
currency will probably be Treasury
notes to replace that now based on an
Understanding debt" In other cas-
es. too, names were better changed
from slang to truthfulness terms; for
instance, un-national banks for ma
tional banks, &c.
remember that i'm 1854, '55 and '56
the general paper currency of the
country was wretchedly bad; so unreli-
able that much of it was called "wild-
cat money!" and all of it "shin-plas-
ters," because of the dirty condition in
which the paper was allowed to circu-
late. / remember hat all stOrekeepers
had to refer constantly to their "detec-
Io.,r of Sf p6i art of 10
thousands of different banks whose
notes were presented TO them. l re-
memb when, in the pane of 1857, the
shin-plasters" of Vermont and Con-
necticut were circulated i'm Missouri
and illinois. and those OF these States
were carefully distributed in the far
down East, 10 enhance the difficulty of
claiming redemption. And 1 remem-
member that nearly all became worth
less together. I remember how the
"busihess people" worried, and how
the working people suffered. And a
few years later-in 1SGl-how all re-
joiced i'm the reliability Of the new
Treasury note-the "green back'-the
first issue of which, viz, "Five-Twen-
w" was good as gold,' being receiv-
able for all Government dues, &C.,
until the worthy capitalists, national
and foreign, bad it disnonored by law
from Iaying customs duties and debt
interest 10 the Government. This was
done 10 make gold dear, that they who
had monopoly of it might sell it at
high prices TO the people who were
compelled to have it for their foreign
trade: aye, and to the Government, too,
that had to send it for foreign material
to carry on the war. SO, the prospec-
lively white enslaving arIstocracy
struck hands with the obsolete black
euslaving planters to embarrass the
progress of Freedom.
