The Old-Fashloned Boy.

At a little dinner of few old-tim
ers the other night one of the speak
ers said:
What has become of the old-fash
toned boy? The one who looked like
his father when his father carried the
sort of pomposity which was like the
divinity that hedged a king in the
time when kinghood was in its
break O. day. The boy who wore a
hat which threatened to come down
over his ears. The boy whose trous-
ers were made over from his fathers
by his mother, or aunt, or grandmoth,
er. The boy whose hair had a COW.
lick in it, before, and was sheared
off the same length behind. The boy
who walked with both hands in the
pockets of his trousers and who ex.
perforated between his teeth when
his teeth were clampei together. The
boy who never wore knickerbockers
or a roundabout coat The boy
whose chirography was shaped by
the gymnastics of his tongue. The
boy who believed his father was the
greatest man in the world, and that
he could have been president if he
had wanted to be. The boy who was
his mothers man when the man was
away from home. New York Sun.

arches, empires and republics of the
Old World were always glad to see
US, it cannot be said that they re.
spectei US. They were amiable. and
were paid for their amiability. What
they chiefly liked about the Ameri.
cans was his easy good-nature in the
presence Of large bill. An Ameri.
can would pay charge that would
have landed the innkGeper in jail
If it had been presented to the cham
berlain of a king. Perhaps this re-
lation between the foreigner AMI the
American will remain. There is a
cafe in Paris which charges an Amer.
lean SO for a 50 dinner, for which a
Frenchman is charged five francs. It
will be difficult for this restaurant
keeper to break such an agreeable
habit. Most Americans are rich. and
those who are care little for the small
items of a bill of fare. Americans
who are poor. and who know the Ian.
guage, are not liked so much in Paris
as the rich Americans, because they
decline to pay more for a dinner or
a drive than is charged for the same

The Memphis Commercial Appeal OF
last Sunday contained a biographical
sketch of Chief Justice A. H. Whit
field, accom- panied by an excellen. pho
tograph OF that distinguished gentle
man and ex-Greuadian. The article Is
from the able and gifted pen OF Miss
Mary V. Duval, one OF the principal
teachers of Grenada College, and is
written 10 that terse n graphic style
SO peculiar to her. The article is not
fraught with meaningless compliments,
but deals With the life and career OF
Judge Whitfield as it has been painted
upon the canvass OF events, and is a
fine exposition Of his attachments and
OF his public service. We understand
that other articles, from the same pen,
hearing upon other prominent living
men OF the State are TO follow, and il
this is true, the Commercial Appeal
is to be congratulated upon securing
the services 81 so gifted and versatile a
writer. We have known Miss Duval
Intimately for a number Of years, and
we doubt if any other lady writer In
the State can equal her, and certainly
none Gao surpass her, and no writer OF
either sex is more gifted or esource
full. He articles are always read with
interest, and We hope to see more Of
them in he near future.

RAILROADS AND DIRT ROADS.

With a double track from jackson to |
New Orleans on the Illinois Central,
which seems a certainty within the
next few months, that magnificent sys-
TEN will then virtually have a double
track from Chicago to New Orleans;
from the Lakes TO the Gulf. The Hi
nuis Central has always been a great
friend of Mississippi. 1t continues so.
1t is announced that they will, within
the pext month, carry n road machipe
up and down the line, aud give an OBJ
iect lesson as to how good roads may
he had, by making a mile or so in diff
ferent counties along its line. This is
a great and patriotic movement. Mis-
sissippi needs good roads now more
than anything else. All hail to the
great railroad system which is doing so
much for the material advancement OF
the State and people.
Ii is stated that the Southern Rail
way, which recently absorbed the Mo-
bile & Ohio, has done wonderful things
for Georgia and the Carolinas. The
requirement Of over three hundred
miles Of road 10 this State, in addition
to what it already had, and the fact
that it seems certain at an early date
to acquire the Northeastern from New
Orleans to Meridian, and the Alabama
& Vicksburg, from Meridian to Vicks-
burg, gives the Illinois Central a great
and powerful rival in Mississippi. II
the Southern will do for the eastern
part OF the State what the Illinois Gen.
trail has done for the central and wes-
tern part, it will be more than thrice
welcome. With good dirt roads and
up-to-date railroads, and mills and fac
tories, Mississippi can defy the croaker
and demagogue. In the meantime, the
people should frown down all i'll treat
ment Of railroads, and lose no opportu'
nity to secure good dirt roads.
