Applause broke out in the Court, and it was some time before quiet could be restored. • A contemporary says: “There is /• country who always pays /pr his paper in advance, /fie lias never been pick a day in his life—never had any coins, or the toothache—his potatoes nev weevil never cats his wheat— the .pever kills bis corn or beans— his babies npver cry in the night, and his Wiic never scolds,” Ahem! h; ■for tlu Mtama Tribum. fry liet to be Sad. .. •5 1 ® r ® OX6 two of girls ; one is the Kind that appears best abroad/ the girls for parties, rides, visits, baite, and whose chief delight is in such thifags; the other is the kind that appears best at home, the girls that are uselnr ip the, dining room, the sick room, and aU the precincts of home. They dif ter widely in character. One is often a torment at home; the other is a blessing. One is | moth, consuming everything aboutber, the other, is a sunbeam inspi nng life ; and gladness all along her path way. j; r Nojv tydoes not necessarily follow t.W. there sip be two classes of girls.' The nrfit education will modify both a little, and unite their characters in one. Girls are not ,*uadc altogether *for home, any more than Doys are. Society would be of but little worth without girls, without women. The first pleasure and duty of every woman should be home j her next should relate to the refinement and well being of society. But in order that she may know how to benefit and adorn socie ty, she must know how to benefit and adorn home. Hence all girls, rich and poor alike, should be early Instructed in ml ithe dirties and cares of home. From the cellar to the garret, she should know all that is to be done. From the kitch en to the parlor she should be complete mistress.' All the interests of home should be familiar to her as household words. Neither idleness, folly or .indifference should prevent her from engaging in all the concerns of home life. This will be te her a school more valuable than the seminary pr the ladies’ college. It behooves mothers therefore to feel that thpy. ure teachers of the first dignity in position. Their daughters? wiu be much what they make them. The home education will lay the true foundation of character.. It the true principles life in the young girl’s mind. .It will give her an insight into domestic duties and teach her that to be useful is one great end in life. Book education can easily follow a good home training j but good homo training is not apt to follow the education of the schools. Girls well taught at home are the girls that appear wel|everywhere. Give us the well read girl* and we shall have no need of any other. They will make the true woman TOM PERRY. T Heard a good story the other day.— Not exactly local, but eminently natidhal, as it involves a famous politician and an ex-President, who liate each other tremen dously. Tiro or three yeafts ago the Rail road routes, between Albany and Buffalo were consolidated, you remember, under the title Of ;Ncw Central, Thuriow Weed of the Albany Evening Journal, engineer ,ing the matter through the Legislature, and for this service was to j-eceivo the handsome siim of £B,OOO, of which Eras tus Corning, was to furnish 54.000 and Dean Richmond $4,000. The plan succeeded, and the money was paid over. But as Mr. Weed did not think it wouldrlpok well to have the stock stand in hisi' own name, he had it made over to an Old and particular friend of his, Mr. Mclntosh, who had made money as a railroad- contractor- r It was understood between parties that Mclntosh was to bold the stock, and then quietly n^l- P it oyer to Weed. But unluckily, Mclntosh died suddenly one fipeday, and forgot to leave a.win. So the administrators, in making up the account of the assets, stum bled upon the certificates for this $B,OOO, and put them down to Mclntosh’s credit, su K ) 9 sin ?> 9f course, they were his. " *bc debte were paid and a handsome balance was left for the widow, the attrac tive Mrs. Mlolritosh, who wpa married a few weeks |ago to JITr. ex-President Fill- More! Thuriow’s eight thousand dollars went with the widow, into the arms of the man whom. Thuriow hates, probably, as. badly as ope man can hate another. For a politico scandalous yarn it is not bad, and makers fun.—Cor. of the' PMada. d&rcury. '- ' ■ ■ :: ~"j.i.y 1 «~ . - -i.

Girls aiKlome. A Good Story. Predict The following sagacious predictions are made for the year 1858: Through thi 5 whole course of this year When the moon wanes, the night will grow dark. On , several occasions during the year the sun mil rh e before certain people dis cover it, and sot before they have finished their day’s work. It is quite likely that when there is no business doing, many will be heard to complain of hard times, but it is equally certain that all who hang themselves will escape starvation. If bustles anji hoops go out of fashion, a church pew jwill hold more than three ladies. There will be many eclipses* of virtue, some visible, others invisible. Many delicate ladies, whom no one would suspect, jwill be kissed without tel ling the mama’s. If the incumbent of a fat office dies, there will be ai dozen feet ready to step into one pair of shoes. will pe more books pnblishe( than will find pjayefs. If a young la|dy should happen to blush, she will be apt to get red in the face with out the use of paint ; if she dreams of a young man three nights in succession, it will be a sign of something; if she dreams of him four timjcs, or has a toothache, it is ten to one she will be a long time get ting either out pf her head. Dinnerr and entertainments will be given to those who have plenty to eat at home, and the poor will receive much ad vice gratis, legal and medical excepted. He who marries this year will run a great risk, especially if he does it in a great hurry. ~ He who steals n watch gives tattlers oc casion to gossipj and will be apt to involve himself and pride in disagreeable relations. Many young j ladies who tope for it, but little expect 1 dt, will be married; and many confidentially anticipating the glori ous consummation will be doomed to wait' another year. Finally, there; exists but little doubt that this will bp a most wonderful year, surpassing in interest all that have pre ceded it. Extraordinary Births.—lt is sta ted by Burdock Ithat the wife of a country man in the Mqiscow district hud given birth to 69 children at 27 confinements— four times four at one birth, , seven times three, and sixteen times twins. In the year 1809, the Vienna newspapers con tained the following announcement . Maria Ann Helen, the wife of a poor linen weaver in Neulerehenfeld, 20 years married, bore at. eleven confinements, 32 children—2B living and 4 dead j 27 were males and G females; all were begotten by one man, and nursed by herself. She had at her last confinement threechildren, one living and two dead.' Her husband was a twin, she herself one offour. Her moth er had produced 38 children* and died du ring a confinement with twins.

CHAPTER IL ■ Sopxe students at College would some times commit acts infertile, for which they would be suspended or expelled, according to the nature of the offence. There was an individual there by the name of Harry Noble, yho was an obstinate, independent student. He iVas very fond of a jokei particularly if it could be perpetrated at the expense of another, i He had often made the Faculty the sub ject of his tricks. Not only would he play tricks of various kinds, but very frequent ly he would bo found absent from his room during the hours appointed for, study and! also absent after night widiout permission. The President often reprimanded him tor such acts Of disobedience j the professor faulted him for neglect of his studies; his fellow-students admonished him; but he was deaf to the gentle admonitions of the professors and the kind advice of his class mates and others, still pursuing his course of. insubordination - and maintaining his obstinacy. The Faculty, finding that all their efforts to prevent him from violating the laws of the institution were fruitless, concluded to suspend hipa from the insti tution for three weeks, thinking that he then would become .penitent and conduct himself properly when he would again be allowed the privileges of a regular student. Those three weeks of suspension Vr§re spent by him in town among his "lady friends,” as he expressed; it. fie said he had a “ high old time” 'there in the en joyment of the ladies’ society. At the expiration of the three weeks he returned to College and claimed admission info hia class again. After promising to do bet ter in the future, he was received.. Noth ing was done by bim to direct particular attention to his actions' until the night before Christmas, when ho performed an act of fool-hardiness that would not have been attempted by any other-one among us. The individual upon whom Harry in tended to play the trickj was the Doctor, (for so we called the President D. D.).—- He was a man of a robust frame, with un eayen features, a prominent hooked-nose and an eagle eye. His countenance gen erally wore a cross, sulleb; look; his lips were thin and he was pas sionate and at times impetuous; he was unflinchingly firm and not easily frighten ed. Hence mischief-makers feared him exceedingly, for wo unto them if he caught them in the act of committing a depreda tion 1 _ Notwithstanding these prominent traits in the Doctor’s character which were clearly visible, he possessed others which were not so apparent. He appeared to be remarkably tender-hearted. He would weep over acts that he v jiad done in the heat of passion or on of the mo ment. Sometimes while reprimanding a j student for some transgression and while his eye was lit up with tye fire of anger and apparent vindictiveness depicted upon his countenance, his features would imme diately assume a different expression and he would plead with him as teara'stoie I down bis* furiowed cheeks. I wifl no\j return to Harry Noble’s adventuire-the night before Christmas. He oame to my room that evening and me for some rigging of disguise, as he to ff cel ebrate the night .before Christmas. 1 ’ I had nothing that would please him but a sheeb which he threw over his shoulders) and lie then went to some of the other rooms and procured more f* fixings ” to gether with a- mask of uprightly deformi ty and ngliness. After onuying himself in a moßt ridiculous he visited several-houses in the neighborhood, and after frightening their inmates and caus ing a general squalling among the chil dren, he teturaoi to College boasting of his succete abdekfo* with the idea of do ing a dariug deed. He said tome; “ Now feme up right, and I will gointo the Doctor’s study and scare him out, of his wits.” “Scare the Doctor I’’ exclaimed l; ff you’ll find your match there; besides, if he catches you, WO to poo* Harpy Noble }’f He said that be had neVer yet frightened him, and he would like to see bow the "old chap” lopked whenfee was badly scared. I ar ranged his odd dress and wished him a safe retura as he started for the Doctor’s study. tcW moments' after, I heard a great noise in the passage as if some persons were rnnnjng for their lives. I rushed out to see if possible the excitement, but only get a glimpse of Harry as he fled past me, hotly pursued by a person whom I thought looked like the Doctor. Helter skeltor they ran down the steps, along the passage and out at the door, when Harry, shielded by the darkness of the night, succeeded in getting away from his ear nest pursuer, hut not until ;ho had lost in his flight most of his dress. ; After the noise had ceased and the crowd which assembled had dispersed, I w ent to my room and there sat Harry No ble divested of his accoutrements blowing and puffing like a steam engine. I inqui red how he made so fortunate an escape. Wiping the perspiration from his heat ed bbw, a cool night as it was, and en-, EDITOKS AND proprietors deavoring to suppress his emotions, of ; fright, he related his adventure in the fol lowing language: “ I Went to the Doctor’s door and rapped; he told me to * come iny I opened the door and, leaving it ajar, stepped in about six feet and began to address him in « Very threatening man* ner and to enforce my threats by very em phatic gestures; X saw him spring from his ohair .’’“Did he springyrom you?” I eagerly inquired. “No sir,” ho resum* ed, “he jumped directly for me as 1 turned to run. I thought I felt his pow* erftd gripe upon as I did so. In attempt ing to get out at the door, and when al most withiu his grasp, the sheet caught upon the door-latch and I thought my days of grace wore surely ended; hut I gave the sheet one powerful jerk as a feel ing of despair came over me, I leaped forth, and although afterwards olossly pursued, now lam ftee.” J‘ See there, how I have torn your sheet 1” I looked and found it almost.torn intwain. “Well, did you succeed in scaring him,” I inquired.— Why, if I didn’t exactly *carc him,” said tiarty, “X made him run like blazes;” ' It was even so, but he was the pursuer, not the pursued, and Harry found out that t yres not an eaigr matter to frighten the Doctor. •; v ' ■ 1 have another story to relate about Haby Noble before 1 take my leave of hirn, but Twill' defer: it till my next Bodgin’ the Hatter.—The Bt.
