a. Political View Of the Printer.

1t has been said that at every fall OF
twilight God sends out His angels to
light up the stars Lights beautiful
emblem Of knowledge, darkness ignor-
ance. Are not the printers the world
star lighters? Its their art that makes
the intellectual consultations sparkle
along our moral zodiac. They attend
upon the birth Of thought and deliver it
into the world Of letters. OF what
practical value would an unborn
thought be to the world? Forever,
therefore, must the realm in which they
rule be considered important by
thoughtful men, Their nimhle fingers
toss into The worlds intellectual sea
those pebbles which oratorical, poetical
and philosophical lapidaries have pol
ished- from which ripples Of thought
arise from The quiet deep and ride to
the farther shores ofhuman sensibiiity.
From a Sermon by Rev. w. E. Hall.

Clothes Pins,

I must tell story of a Dubuque man
never told before Passing through the
back yard Of his fine Locust street resi-
dence, he observed q servant girl hang
ing out articles OF small clothes and
fastening them with the familiar
clothes-pin. After watching the oper-
alton a short time. be went up to the
girl and enquired If she couldn't make
them split sticks stay on the line wish
putting clothes under them. He took
some of the pins from the girl, and
holding the line steady with his left
hand, he soon sat dozen pins astrida
Of it III good shape, and then stepped
back TO let the girl see for herself how
little she knew when 10 and behold, his
split sticks were all hanging fast to the
line, but with the heads downward.
"Oh, yes, ] see,' said he, you put the
rags on the line to keep the sticks from
keeling over and he walked away,
talking to himself about the extraya-
gance of buying kindling wood with a
handle turned on every stick, and then
having to be hung up On sting to dry
before being used.

Stoppiue at the White House,

E0t long ago I heard an old gentle,
man telling, with great delight, Of how
be was once O. guest al the White
House. Is was during Andrew Jack
son 5 term His father was an ardent
admirer Of Jackson, and insisted that
the son, then just Of age, should take a
pilgrimage to Washington for the sole
purpose Of seeing the old hero. They
lived at Erie, Penn. and the long jour
ney had to be madeon horseback The
young man took the tedious ride, and,
after refreshing himself at Washing
ton Hotel, went up TO the White House
and asked to see the President, When
he was admitted he told Jackson that
he mad ridden all the way from Erie to
see him. The President asked his bust
ness, and was highly pleased when he
was told that the only object of the visit
mad been accomplished in obtaining an
interview jackson asked Wileee the
youptg man was stopping, and, on being
told, insisted on sending down for his
horse and saddle-bags and retaining
him as q guest at the White House,
For week the young Pennsylvania
enjoyed "Old Hlckory's" hospitality
On the morning Of his departure his
horse, WITH the saddl8-bags across his
back, was led in front Of the White
House, and the President came out, as
any good old farmer would have done,
to shake hands and wish him asafe jour
ney home.-Atlanta Constitution.
