ON ACCOUNT OF THE TARIFF.

Last week the Mulkittle went out
into the country to small watering
place where the water is brought in
a bucket up a steap hill. This place
WAS not chosen on account OF its be-
ing a watering place or because it
had any reputation as an in vigorat.
ing retreat, but because the man
who Owls the double log house on
the top Of the rugged hill extended
to Mr.. Mulkittle an invitation to
come out and stay few weeks with
him. Ministers of the gospel are
usually kind and generous aud gent
'y lean toward accepting any thing
IN the nature Of something to eat
that you are mind to give them.

Though Kock,' the name of the To-.
Tcallty was charming place, aud de-
clsred that he would like to spend
months instead Of weeks among it's
carpets o. moss and refreshing vines.
Here Mrs. Juggle, wife Of Col, Jug
gle' proprietor Of the place, sighed,
and to disguise any spirit of dispar-
agement, coughed, burned her hard
on the coffe pot aud passed the corn
bread to young Mulkittle.
Col Juggle is quite a politician

arrival, he slid:

POETRY
BACKBONE

When you see fellow mortal
without fIed and fearless views,
Hanging on the skirts Of others
Walking in their cast-of shoes,
Bowing low TO wealth and favor,
With abject, uncovered head,
Reasty to retreat or waser,
Willing to be- turnsi or lead
Walk yourself with Armer bearing,
Throw your moral shoulders back,
Show your spine has nerve and mar.
Just the thing which his must lack.
A stronger word
Was never heard
Than this-backbone.
When you see theologian
Hugging close some ugly creed,
Fearing to reject or question
Dogmas which his priest may read
Holding back all noble feeling;
Choking down each manly view
Caring more for forms and symbols
Than to know the good and true;
Walk yourself with firmer bearing,
Throw your moral shoulders back;
Show your spine has nerve and mar
row
Just the thing which his must lack
A stronger word
Was never heard
Than nthis-backbone.
Whom you see n politician
Crawling through contracted holes,
Begging for some fat position
la the house or mt the poles;
With no sterling manhood in him
Nothing staple, broad or sound;
Destitute OF pluck or ballest;
Double-sided all around;
Walk yourself with flrmer bearing,
Throw your moral shoulders back:
Show your spine has nerve and mar
row
Just the thing which his must lack
\ stronger word
Was never heard
Than this-back bone.
A modest song, and plainly told
The text 10 worth mine OF gold;
For many men most sadly lack
A noble stiffness in the back.

To de in order to avoid the pains
of poverty. love, or anything that is
disagreeable, is not the part of a
brave man, but Of a coward for it
is cowardice to shun the trials and
