The evening before / had reached the
railroad station at Mesopotamia and taken
the stage to Penacoskeag, 1S miles distant.
The stage driver was very jolly fellow and
on the way up he and struck up a very
pleasant acquaintance. He had a fund of
interesting stories and enlivened the monot-
ony of the journey by telling them. Occa-
sionBlly, too, he would sing a song, not al
wavs select, but invariably tuneiul. To
make some return or his efforts TO entertain
me narruted some of nv own experiences,
which amused him greatly. He had mis-
taken me or a theological student at first,
but dispelled that impression from his
mind verv speedily when began to talk.
Thoughtlessly l said some things which had
better been lett unSaid, and thereby placed
a weapon in the hands of the driver which
he might have used against me had he ever
shown an inclination to create an unpleas-
antness between the people Of Penacoskeag
and their schOo Oolmaster.
There was but one other passenger, a
youth OF IL or is years, with whom / had
abundant opportunity to become iully ac-
quainTed later. He was of a very lively
disposit on, and took his turn at laughing,
Joking and storytelling. Had l then known
his reputation as the worst boy in the PEN
aeOskeag school, doubtless nv behavior
would have been more circumspect and dig
ni6ed. As it was, gave myself complete
ly awav, and when heard him say as lett
the stage, That's the new schoolmaster,"
realized, all too late, that l must have ap-
peared TO him anything but q model in
structor oi youth.
But hadn't much time to worry over
this matter, as the next morning at o'clock
was TO appear before the school committee
for examination. 1 had never taught viii
lage school before and the only examination
! had ever passed was at a country insti-
tute where 1 got through without trouble.
But writing the answers to questions, in
company with classmates and school riends,
was a very different thing from giving oral
and off-hand replies TO the interrogations of
august and solemn-visaged committee men,
as every teacher must know.

fit was not with fear and trembling that
I knocke at the door of Elder Hawkins,
chairman of the Penacoskeag school COM
mittee, it was with feeling so nearly akin
that it would be difficult to explain the diff
ference. / WAS ushered in; the elder was
there and another member of the committee
also. 1 felt as / should imagine a specimen
of animalcule might, when put beneath the
glass of a microscope, as the aged and wise
looking gentleman began looking me over
In other words, felt small.
"It's a very forrerd school we have in
Penacoskeag," began the elder. 1 took
courage at once. A man who pronounced
forward "forrerd" couldn't know more than
ten times as much as did.
"You are very young looking, aud your
age is-ahum-19, you say; yes, you GER
taiuly are young. 1t needs man of more
years and experience for our school; but as
you have been engaged for the place, we
stand ready to give you trial, provided, of
course. that the committte find, upon inves-
tlgstion, that you are in possession of the
requisite educational requirements and that
your temper and disposition are not incou-
patible with that standard of character
which, in our opinion, is indispensable in
an education. En-, Mr.. Adams?"
The long sentence was addressed to me,
and the short one to the member of the COM
mittee, who had hitherto been silent. This
gentleman replied:
"Just as YOU saw, elder"
And I may here remark that during all
nv acquaintance with him, in all the nu-
merous visits which Mr.. Adams, in COM
pany with the elder, afterward paid to the
school, those were the only words l ever
heard him utter. The elder did all the talk

The ''Grabbers."

The Atchison Globe is responsible for
the following: "There being no more
boodle in sight, the legislature just
before final adjournment voted to each
member the chair in which he had sat
during the session, and when the
statesmen knocked off work each seized
his chair and marched down town with
it. 1t was a shameful yet ludicrous
procession, these jays, alecs, and wolves
Juggling big heavy chairs through the
public thoroughfares. j. M. Covert, of
this city, who witnessed the proceeding,
says that Governor Humphrey heard
of the brazen grab and promptly noti-
fed the sergeant-at-arm that the MEM
bers of the legislature had no more
right to carry off the chairs than they
had the right to go into the treasury
and help themselves to money, and
that he would be held responsible for
the stolen property. Thus advised the
sergeantrat-arms gave chase and re-
covered the chairs. 1t was Governor
Humphreys first veto, ittle)informal,
but full of business. The Topeka
papers in their legislative reports Guar
itably omit to mention this scandal"
