fence of young lovers, since there was
no ''ncxt-room,' courting-sticks were
used; that is, long wooden tubes that
could convey from ear to ear sweet and
secret whispers. Was this an inven-
ton peculiar to Long Meadow
1t is a charming picture that this calls
up of life in a Puritan household, this
tubular love-making, the pretty girl
(nearly every girl is pretty in the fire.
light OF long ago) seated in one stiff
high-backed chair, and the staid but
blushing lover in another, handling the
courting-stick, itself an open confession
of ~complacence, if not of true love.
Would the young man dare to say, IL
love you," through a tube, and would
he feel encouraged by the laughing,
tender eyes of the girl when she replied
through the same passage, ''Do tell!'
Did they have two sticks, so that one
end of n could be at the a and the
end of the othe. at the mouth all the
wh'leg How convenient, when the
young man got more ardent than was
seemly, as the flip went round, for the
girl to put her thumb over the end of
the tube; and stop the flow of soul!
Did the young mar bring his stick, and
so announce his intention, or did the
young lady always keep one or a pair
on hand, and so reveal both willingness
and expectation? 1t was much more
convenient than the telephone, with its
''hello' and proclamation to all listen
ers at each end of the line. Lovers
can make love wi h anything, even
with a telephone, the successful court
ing of a deaf person (for there is one
word that nearly every ore likes to
hear), as we know, can go on through
a speaking-trumpet; but these court
ing-sticks seem to us the ne plus ultra
of tender communication-when q third
party is present. They would be very
useful now at large parties, where there
is such a din and babble that one can
only court a pretty girl at the risk of
bronchitis or l~aryngitis. Sometimes in
the jam you cannot get near the girl;
but with a long courting-stick you
could vile her away from her too ar
dent admirer. This invention seems to
us worthy of revival for many reasons,
and we should be glad of any further
information in regard to it. Civiliza-
tion in its progress drops a good many
things that ought to be retained.

Bulldog and Pork.

Some time since n New England
schooner was lying at the Rice Mill
wharf, the captain of which was the
owner of a ferocious bulldog, whose
mouth watered at the sight of the ten
d~er-skinned colored people. Things
were scattered about the deck of the
vessel in q loose manner, and the major
told the skipper that he should be care
full or he would have some of the arti-
cles stolen. The latter laughed at the
idea, and, pointing to his dog, said he
would like to sec any thief come aboard
his vessel, adding that anyone who
could take that half barrel of pork
pointing to one on the deck neal the
dog-was welcome to it. He was very
emphatic as to the result of the visit,
and apparently had in his minds eye
the chewed-up form of the would-be
thief.
The major had noticed in the crowd
n negro who had the reputation of be-
ing a very adrOit thief, but who had
never been caught-one of the kind that
when cornered tells his brethren ''dat
de white man is berry 'spichus." Calling
Sam to him he told him that the captain
of the schooner would give the pork to
anyone who would get it off the vessel.
Sam eyed the vessel, the dog and the
skipper. For true, captain, you ge
me de barrel if | take imp The skip
per said yes, he could have the barrel
and its contents if he could get it with
out the dog catching him. The sun set
in tie west as usual, of course, and
when it came up, according to Parson
Jasper, on the other side in the morn
ing, the barrel of pork had been spirit
ed away. The dog was still pacing the
quarter deck, with the air of having
performed his duty, and looking prob
ably even more defiant than usual.
As soon as the sun was well up in
the sky Sam came poking along. The
captain hailed him at once. ''Say, you
black rascal, you got the pork, did
youp" ''Oh, yes, sir; no trouble to do
dat" Il will give you so to find out
how you got it off the schooner right
under the very nose of my dog" said
the captain. ''All right, captain; you
put up de money, and | will tell you
how did um," replied Sam. The SIC
was put up. You see, Marse' Cap
tain, | see your dog been lonesome; he
been n long time from home, so | bring
another dog, a little comradc like him,
down wild me to play wild him. While
de Sogs run about de deck and jump on
dc Wharf to get acquainted wild dc
selves, you see, | took dc BARREL The
captain said it was worth the pork and
the so to learn the trick.-Savannah
