 Follow the boy. When he arrives at home,
 he does not haul out truck wheel w.gon or bow and arrow. He goes to the stable and looks at the horse. The horse may be an inferior animal and his neck may be long instead of being Arched, yet the boy watches him with interest.
 He curries the horse and rubs him
 with piece of blanket. Education with this boy is a s.de issue. The horse is supreme. The boy may Dc sent to col lege and may be graduated with high honors, yet hts thoughts dwel! not upon the masters of iearaing, the great pos.s and scientists whom his classmates wor. shiped but upon the horse.

NEW ORLEANS.

E6ik0Tt0S CWTetP0Hde~fG
 There are many features about New Orleans that would not "show up" with moral effect in polite society. The beau uful Creole girl, ot whom the world has heard so much, may remember the time when she was beautiful and accomplished, but if she can, her memory must be good I suppose that some of the Creole girls are handsome, but they do not meet strangers at the depot. Among those who understand French, foreign lam guage is generally employed. The Egg fish language is easy and copious and l do not understand why the Creoles do not speak it. They ought to know that it Is the language of Shakespeare, of Milton and P D ,nan, hut they dc not seem to take active cogniz ance of this fact. In the eighborhood of the French market met an old negro who could not speak word ot ArkAnsaw. Why he has been SO long kept ia the dark Is some- thing i shall not attempt to explain. He ought to know that he cannot be gen. uine voter unless he speaks carpet bag" and attempted to exp ain this to him, but he gave me an odd figure of speech, a mixed metaphor, and proceeded to "bunch" his radishes. This country cannot hope to be great until the negro talks intelligibly.
 New Orleans is a great city. In many respects it is larger than rna any towns of the same size. It recognizes no Sunday, that i', in religious way. Many of its citizens, prominent business men and St Charles street dlndies drink as elo. quently on Sunday as on any other day They do not seem to consult Moses. Moses with them is of no more import ance than the civil service principle is to the average politician. Moses may have made laws for the ancient Hebrews, but he did not make laws for New Or leans.
 There are many beautiful sights in New Orleans, but they are not to be found in the Louis XIV. part of the town. There the clustering is falling from the walls. Buildings which were once grand are now dangerous in more senses than one. At one time it may have been New Orleans, bu, it is Old Nick now. The inhabitants are polite but moneyless. They speak a sort of French which only they themselves un- derstand, and an English jargou which nobody can comprehend. Yet, withal, they are e very good people. They drink wine for dinner and not unfre- qaently raise what the profAne call hell for supper, and, dou b,lsss, they have more supper than dioner.
 h this city amusement pFedominates. The business men are never too busy to be polite. Many of them will drink with you at the shorea notice. Some of them, though, do not drink at all. They are shelved in the cemetery. In this ci,y there is more drinking and less drunken ness than in any city in the Union. Il don't know why this is unless it be the fact that they don't get drunk. sup pose that this must have something to do with it.
 During many yeaxs New Orleans vas called the Paris of America, probably On account of the French population. I l have noticed that where the French lan- gusge prevails there are likely to be al large number of people with French pro- c3fvisiAx Yha French ooera. .hns,sI, s,, |
