Thia man and hi name it waa also Jonea He swore that he'd .cave them old red hills and atones, For ha couldn't make nothln' but 'yellow ish cotton. And little ef that, and hia fence wero rot Ion, And what little corn be bad, that waa bough ten, And he couldn't get a living from the land. . '',. . And tho longer he swore the madder he And he rose and be walkad to the sUtil lot. And he hnlloed to Tom to come here and biteh, For to emigrate somewhere where land was rich, ; T ' And to quit raising aovk-burrs, thistle and alch, An wanting their time on barren land. So him and Tom they hitched up the mule. rrotostinir that folks were nilehfv hiir fools That 'ud stay in Georgia their lifetiuto out, Just scr . tolling aJiving whan all of them mou't f Get place In Texas, Where eottton would aprout , , Hy the time you could plant in the land.

They closed at a dollar and filty cent, And Jonei then bought him a wagon and tents, And loaded hia corn, and hia women, and truck, And moved to Texaa which it took Ilia entire pile, with Uie beat of luck, To get there and get him a lit' If land. But Brown moved out on tho old Jonoa aira.

He was & blacksmith, carpenter, locksmith and jeweler br trade, and also did sunnnhinir now and then at barse doc toring and pulling teeth. He waa a Jack at all-trades, and muster of them all. A natural horn genius wai Eliph alet Perkins, and (XUnlnR short of it. Now Eliplialpt took hi own calibre, so to apeak, and decided that be was capable of doing something some thing in the iuveutive way tbatwnuld startle the world right out of ft? sen ses. Then he sat down deliberately to decide what be should do. It must be something excessively novel, that was certain, to commence with. What should it be? "I've got it!" sheuted Eliphalet. after a long thinking spell ; "I'll make a clock work mau that will walk and -run like a human being. That would bring me fume, sod would be a big card for a side-show at a cir cus or fair." Immediately Eliphalet, his brain surcharged with the great idea, hrtiUfcht all (be frrce of lne inventive powers to beer upon it. Tore days and three nights he wrestled with the idea, and on the morning of the fourth he successfully evolved lb notion mentally constructed the clock-work man to its perfection. ' ' During the ' ensuing si;e months Eliphalet Perkins woaked night and day at hia man. It construction cwisumerl two hundred pounds of wrought iron, three thousand feet of steel spring, the wheels out or seven teen old clock1, and other matrals to numerous to mention. But it was done at last. It stood complete in the back room of Eliphalet'a house for he had kept it conetnaotion rigid, ly secrctaftcnmplete in all its wonder ful parts. It worked to charm. A keyhole in its back was the winding up place, and when once wound up it tramped about the raom like a thing of life. Eliphalet Perkins was overjoyed. The first thing ho did waa to go - on a grand celebratory drunk, which lasted a week. When sobered tip, he pre pared for an exhibit. oo of his inven tion. Swamptown was flooded with handbills, and crowds applied for a preliminary sight of the wtfttderful thing; but the inventor steadfastly re fused all applicants. The clock-work man should take the first walk at the time and place appointed, and not be fore nar any-where else. - Tho day drew near. Eliphalet clothed his man in a new 'suit of broadcloth, oilsd his joints, and wait ed impatieutler the hour of his tri umph, s Swamptown was crowded when the day finally came. . The fame of the clockwork man bad gone abroad, and people flocked in for miles around. At the appointed hour main street, where the exhibition was to take place, was almost impassable. It was with the utmo?t difficulty that a passage was kept clear for the expected tourist. 'At length a shout went up from the crowd nearest Eliphalet' shop, as the great inventor emerged with his ran chine. The latter was carried into the middle f the strt hni Timd in the direction of the proposed nntrijli of triumph. Then the great inventor, his face suffused with a glow of tri umph, carefully wound up the auto maton, and pulled out the knob that was to start it. - But it didn't start.. "; Something must be wrong. Elipha let'a heart stood still at the ihoaght of failure. He nervously examined the vitals of the image, aud tbey seem ed to be all right. What could the matter be? Eliphalet was almost wild. He went arnund to the front of it ; and that instant there was a sudden whining sound among the wheels. Somt thing broke loose. . Eliphalet stood with his back tn it. The spectators saw the clock-work man sway and quiver, as if the ma chinery was running down with fear ful rapidity. Then thy saw its right foot suddeuly projected, and, with a voiocity and momentum terrible tn centemplate the iron pedal ' struck Eliphalet behind. Such a kick had never been known io the world's history. ' It lifted the recipient about four feet in the air. and when he came dowuithad another rtady for him. The spell-bound crowd, in horrified amazement, aaw the machine, ad vance down the stioet, kickiug the un fortunate Perkins with the precision and violence of a walking-beam. No sooner did his feet touch theground than the out-flying right foot of the clock-work man caught him on the same spot. . Thus the infernal machine marched on and out of the village, kicking Eliphalet bsforo it, and the awe-strckeu crowd chasing H far ia the rear. "There' a screw loose in the cussed thing's right leg," jerk ed out Perkins, aa he waa bounced from their sight aud hearing. , It took six mile to run the clock work down, and overy foot of that dis tance waa twelve inches of solid ago uy fur Perk i us. Wheu be was able to leave the house again, three mouths afterwards, he seized an ax auj sma.h ed the clock-war k man past the possi bility of reconstruction. A WO.M AN or t'Ol UAUE. The little suburban village of Bust letou, near Philadelphia, last Friday witnessed a runaway, followed by acts of bravery and presence of mind on the part of a lady who, with her bus baud, says the Press, is well known to our citizens. Tha stage coach from Smitbfield to Frankf-.nl, in passing through Bustletnn, drew up at the Bustletiut hotel, kept by Mr. Robert Murray. Ther were three ladies and a gentleman in the coach, which was drawn by two very spirited horses, aud as the driver .alighted and went into the hotel for a moment he did not hitch his horses, but merely laid, the rains on the seat of the carriage. At this moment the animals took fright at the sudden emptying of a pail of water, and at a bound they were racing down the tret at head long speed. Tha gentleman, who was seated at the front of the roach, made his way to the back and get out, and waa flung heavily to the ground, re ceiving aever cuts about tha bead and face. Meantime, the roach - with the three ladies was whirled dawn the street at e speed that threatened io stant destruction to the coaeh aud pos sibly the death of ita occupant, bat a lady passenger, Mrs. Bushnell, was equal l the occasion. Stooping over the seat sb secured a firm hold of the lines, and taking a turn or t of the slack around her waist, put out her strength to cheek the speed aud gaide the progress of the animals. She suc ceeded in checkinr and finally turn ing the hone around and driving them up to the hotel, when ball a seor of strong arms helped the brave woman out of the carriage amidst the warmest praises of the aacited crowd who witnessed tha transaction. - TUB WKHTWAKD SXOVSIT) ' MAIN StratlNU, BY PROr. J. D. BUTLER. Lincoln. Nebraska, 1873. The West draws new settlers into its capacious bosom by its fertility, its free homesteads, aud its infinite demand for labor, whether skilled or unskilled. It also drives them, to take shelter under its wings by com pttition. New England ence raised, her own bread-stuff, but she has long ceased so to do. The produce of richer and cheaper land competed with her farm ers, till it proved more than a match for their skill aud energy. Many of them then turned to manufacturers, hut a still larger number were hence driven west. They 'made their own sura of the cheap acres there, and en listed in the ranks of the agricultural army which had vanquished them. ,. Thus the West is constantly acting on the East with an increasing wright, and that of a larger ami lunger lev!. Here one wcret of its rapid growth. It is forty years since the hrst white families eulered Ioa. . But no more than oue-thi id oi' its urcseut popula tion were born within Ks limits; two thirds have come in.', i . ' Of twelve hundred thousand to-day, about one-half were born in some more eastern State. ' Foreign cen tries being further lhau the Atlantic slope, from the West hare hitherto felt its influence less but even they "were long since driven as well as drawn to send their sons thither.', The influence exerted upon thern has bean of the same nature with that . which has brought Westward s inny from aur own East. Honce one sixth of the population ef Iowa has come lulo it from beyond the Atlantic. -l Not one sixth of the population af Nebraska were born within its limits. More than twenty-five thousand home steaders and pre-enidiars have filed claims in the land-office at Lincoln, a capital not yet six years old : nail within the last three year, about three thousand settlers have bought farms on the land grant to the Burl ingten and Missouri River Railroad eu ten years' credit and six er cent, interest, and, on contract made since 1872, no installment of tha principal due till the begiaiug of the fifth year and then only one-seventh. Tba Westward tidal wave was never so strong as to-day but it will be stronger te-roorrow. The stronger it grows the more strength it has to. grew stronger. Nor can it fall to. wax still more mighty til) so ' maa$ of the European millions have migrat ed than the density of population sddi the rate of wages shall have hetem well nigh equalized on both aW of the Atlantic.
