ARISTOCR ACT. Perhaps the best hint at Kepubli can Aristocracy, of which the present age is so prolific, i is the fol ! wing from the pen of J. G. SAXK. Jt has a uni versal application, and is warranted good for all j localities : Of all the notable things on earth The queerest one is pride of birth, t "Among our fierce Democracy !" A bridge accross a hundred years. Without a prop to save from sneers— Not even a couple of rotten Peers— i A thing for laughter, sneers and jeers, Is Ameiitan Aristocracy ! .Depend upon it, my snobbish friend, Your family thread you can't ascend, Without good reason to apprehend, You may find it waxed at the farther end, By some plebeian vocation! Or, worse than that, your boastsd line May t d in a loop of stronger twine, That p agued some worthy relation ! Because you flourish in worldly affairs, Doift be haughty and put on airs, With insolent pride of station ! Don't be proud and turn up your nose, At poorer people in plainer clothes, But learn for the of your mind's repose, That "--ulth'Vi a bubble that comes—and goes ! And that all proud flesh, wherever it.grows, : Is sufject to irritation ! KITTY'S NEW COLLAR- ; Kitty Culting was a nice plump little maid- j en of eighteen summers. Her uncle was a j miller, and well to do iu the world. As Kitty j was likely to be an heiress, this consideration ' alone would have attracted lovers, even it Kit- j ty herself had been considerably les attractive j than she really was. 1 11 Tt . f rb;it Vn'iCy Y"' *: -1 to Centre on a young man whom her uncre oy no means approved. This was Henry Billings, a vuung larmer in the neighborhood. The miller's sole ground ot disapproval was, that the young man had not quite so large a share ol worldly possessions as he thought his niece had a right to expect. The consequeuce was that he torbade young j Billings the house, and told Kitty to give him j Up. Her eyes snapppd in a very decided manner, ! and though she said nothing, it was evident ; that she meant considerable. However, she was obliged to dissemble, and Harry thought it prudent not to approach the j house wheu tne miller was at home. Byway ' ot compensation, Kitty was in the habit ot let ting hirn know when her uncle was absent, and j on tb ese occasions they would pass a social eveiuog together in the erac you didn't expect to see me so soon." "No, uncle," said Kitty. "Why it isn't much more than ten." "The way of it was, I happened to meet the Squire at the store four miles this side ol bis house, and we transacted our business there. So you see 1 gamed an hour or so in that way." "i wisii to goodness the Squire had stopped at home," thought Kitty. "Have you been louely, Kitty ?" inquired her uncle. "No, .-T," said his niece, demurely, "I was I busy , y in know." "You aie getting to be quite industrious." The miller took off'his boots and sat down j composedly at the fire. I Kitty was in hopes that lie would goto bed, in order that she might give her lovei a chance to escape. But he did not appear at all in ; clined to go. "Isn't it most bed-time, uncle?" said Kitty. "1 don't know how it is, but I dou't feel at all sleepy to-night." ! "But if vou are sleepy don't wait for me." "(11l !" said Kitty, looking particularly wide awake, "I tee! as if I could sit up all uighl." "Where is the weekly paper, Kitty ?" Kitty would like to have said she didn't know, tor if she} knew her uncle got hold of'that lie would quite disregard the passage ol time. Unfortunately there was the paper on Hie table under the kitchen glass. It was the : fust object that met her gaze as she looked up. "I see I'm in for a siege," said Kitty to her self, "but I shall stand it as long as 1 can.— j That's a comfort. But I'm afraid Harry will find it pretty dull work in the closet. \\ hat j would uncle say if he should lind out he was jthere." I Hall an hour passed. Toe miller, who was a slow reader was in ! tent upon a story which interested him. Kit ty saw itli a despaiiing glance that he was ; not quite half through it. Sne was beginning to be sleepy- herself, or ! would have been if she had not so much to ! keep her awake. "Kittv," said her uncle, looking up sudden ly, -you had better go to bed. It's most elev- I en o'clock." | '-Are you going to bed, uncle ?" "Not just yet. It's a pretty cute one. But [ shan't need any company. So don't sit up on I my account." "I should not go to sleep if 1 went 'to bed, ! uncle. Besides, I want to get so much done i before 1 gj to bed." ' j "Well, child, just as you like. Bless me, what's that ?" ' j Kitty turnes pale. There was a surpressed noise in the closet. Harry had evidently got j tired of his constrained position, and was stir ! ring a little. "It must be the cat," said Kitty hurriedly. ' "The cat ! Do you allow her to be in the closet ? She ought to be driven out." I ! The miller rose but Kitty hurriedly anticipa j ted him. . I ! She went to the closet, opened it a trifle, and ■ called "Scat !" "No the cat is not there," she said retur [ i ning to her reat. Freedom of Thought and Opinion. Quarter of an hour passed. Again a noise more decided in its character was heard. Harry's elbow had happened to strike a plate, and it lell with a sudden crash upon the lloor. "I'll see what it is," exclaimed the miller, rising. He threw open the door, and out rushed Harry, looking rather foolish. "Well, 1 never ?" exclaimed the miller. Before he had time to say anything lurther, Kitty said hurriedly, "Uncle, didn't you promise roe a collar V "Yes," replied he, but— Kitty pressed to the side of her lover, who passed his arm about het neck, and then she ?aid, while her eyes twinkled with mischief, "this is the collar! want, uncle. You promised me, you know." "And I'll keep it, Kitty," said the miller, laughing heartily, "no matter what it costs," Two months from that day Kitty Cutting changed her name. Some years have [elapsed, but she has not yet got tired of the collar her uncle gave her. HALF AY HOUR IN A RAILROAD , TICK ET OFFICE. Traveler—"New York ;" planking the price of a ticket. The ticket clerk jerks out a tick et, and jerks in the money almost in an instant, w:tnout a word, and the travelprj gives place far the next comer, who perhaps has the 6ame destination, but who occupies much more time in making his wants kuown, something after this style : "What's the fare to New York ?" "Four dollars." • "How long atore you start ?" "Ten minutes." "A ti—er—can you change a fifty dollar bill ?" "Yes sir." "(jive ine change in Boston money (laying out the fifty) and in five dollar bills if you can." (Change is made and ticket thrown out in al most a second of time.) "Do you get to New York now as usual ?" "Yes sir." "What time does [the Filidelfy train leave to-morrow morn in'?" "Seven thirty." By this time the gerit has gathered up his hank notes, folded them up, put them smoothly luto a pocket-book, poked his umbrella into the stomach of a heated individual from the ru ral districts who wa3 waiting nervously behind him, an I by the delay caused the collection of a half a dozen of o'ther applicants for tickets. Vext comes the countryman's turn, j/reivlessly] "Ticket lor Boston?" SJfifn oh—er 1 'rvspatf. . . want to go *.o Plvmtoii—ville"—[no show of money.] "Forty-five cents ?"—[waiting for ashow of fund.] "Yes, wal, I'll take one ticket." "Yes, sir, forty-five cents." By this time gent from the rural district comprehends the pay in advance principle a dop'ed at ail well-regulated railway stations ; and fining into the profound depths of his pan taloons pocket, withdraws, in a capacious hand a miscellaneous collection, which, from a hasty glance, appears to be composed of a piece of * cavendsh tobacco, a lead pencil, a piece of red chalk, hr^ejack knife, a political medal, leath er shoe-string, a couple of buttons, a suspender buckle.and some change. From the latter a twenty five cent piece, two half dimes, two three c-.mrw ; n *h*
