LIFE IN THE BACK-WOODS.
Old Jimmy Waddle', l'lrst Cotirtslilii.
"Tai.kin' o'spreen, boys, puts mo in
initiil o' my young days. I nht.uld ratii-
er guess I whs in for 'em bomo myself
them times."
This was snid by nn old man, whom
we will introduce as Mr. James Wad
dle, or rather as "old Jim Wuddlo."
Everybody, (except tho reader) knows
him and Ills penchant foryurn-splniiing.
It was tho evening of a militia training
day; there wero a goodly iiiiniher,nfter
tho company was dUmisscd from duty,
who wero lounging nrotind, nnd all
gathered around the aforesaid old Jim,
to hear his yarn, to which ho had al
ready begun tho prelude, ami only
waited for somebody to urgo him to go
on. This there were enough to do. Ho
then inquired what they would linve
'ono of his huntin' or courtin' sprees?"
Tho boys unanimously demanded tho
latter. Then, after requesting that none
of themshoiild laugh till ho got through,
with a flow preparatory heim, and an
uiMimption of a comically grave fnco,
ho commenced: I wish I could report
in Iii- inimitable language, virlalim et
liltnilwi.
"When I wero n hoy, you know, dad
dy moved from Virginia to Knlntutk
I'd been born nud fouch upon thofron

me to hunt bars nnd Inglns in, Hut I
forgot, you want it courtin' story. Well,
altlio' 1 wus nlways a cuttnr up somo
dovlltry among tho boys, yet, somehow,
I was it little shy ami skeery amongst
tho gals. I liked tho critters prudlg
iously j but nbotit tho only way I could
manage to'thow It, was by caslln
sheep's eyes in iibtiiidaneo at 'em. Vo
had nicctiiis as well as frolics, some
times. Whllo tho preacher vus preuch
lu tender-heartedness, brotherly-kindness
und love,I wasn't thlnklii' o' noth-
in'olsc. I used to set where I could
look tho gals in tho face and then ga.o
at some purty ouu till sho'd blushed as
red ns a pepper-pod. Then I felt so
queernbout tho gizzard, nnd wlsh'd an
eartliquako would conio nnd throw mo
right in her lap. I win hi love, but I
couldn't tell who I loved most. There
wits l'eggy Masonhammor, n mighty
flue gnl, even In her tow-llucii frock,
her cheeks wnr us full in a China pig's,
and as red ns it turkey gobbler's; and
then thar was Sally Perkins, with her
gloriously striped liomo-mado cotton
frock, besides her ha'rund oyeB as black
us Ink; nud then thar was tllmplo
check'd, bluooy'd Lottlo Smith, who
always toted her shoes and stockln's Ii
her hands till she got In sight of meet
in'. Well, i)' these three I couldn't tell,
for my life, which I liked best some
times ouu and sometimes another, but
idlers tho hut ono I looked at.
"Hut when Squiro Cruinpton conioto

said too. When I Ilrst eeed her, It was

my eyes on her till her's met mine; alio
looked steadfastly, then smiled n charm

down. Iordyl thcro wns n flutterin'

thnt hour I was too big for my breeches ;
of Sundays, I borried dad's breeches
Iiu'd been married in beforo tho Revolu
tionary war, and como oir at his knees;
but ho was tall and I warn't, they canio
below mlno threo or four Inches. Agin
tho nieetln' I was prepared to cut n big
stlfT sister Sal, for tho purpose, starch

slick ns a sheet of tin. This shirt had
tho finest kind ofllax linen in tho bos
om and collar, but tho invisible part
of It was coarso low, witli u horn that
would cable n steamboat.
"Now, while Sal was smoothing tho
wrinkles near tho said hem with nn
iron Just hot from tho fire, down stairs

in' tho breath otit'n It. It was Satur
day night; and bho was the only ono up

was, then dad's truoblues.thon tho fust
reg'Iar built par ofshoes I'd ever had.
"I was seventeen just tint Sunday
mornin, and in my Sunday riggin' folt
myself a man, nnd was resolved if Het
sy Crumpton was nt mcctin' to show
it. Well, sho was thar, and I axt for
her company, and got It. Walkln' by
her side, I folt n3 light ns notliin'
skerccly touched tho ground I wnlked
on. Hut I shan't tel 1 the fino tliinus I
thought and said to her on tho way,
and moro after wo got home. 'Oh, yes,
do,' said several voices. No, you'll
have enough without that, you're to
skim tho cream off tho story yet.
"Sho kept mo up latc,say two o'clock;
and spite of the novelty it being tho
first timo I got sleepy. Now tho
Squiro hail Just como to these pnrts.and
put up n one-story, one-roomed log

oi uie young ones slept uetow. I was
n lectio bashful 'bout gwlno to bed thar,
but I was threo miles Irom home, and
it was ralnin' likobluo blazes; I had to
do it, without exposln' the blank in my
linen. I resolved to bo up nforo any
body elsoln tho mornin' on the same
account nnd somo others.
"This wn tho last I know'd till wak

which slept under tho bed) a pullln' tho

Treating- a Oaso Actlvolp.
Tboro ensues n description of "Treat
ing a Caso Actively," which mado tho
collector of this omnium gatherum
shako his sides, at tho sntno tlmo that
It struck liim us ono of most eflectlvo
temperanco stories ho had met for many
a long day. Tho talo is told by a phy.
slclnn who had been called in great
liasto to attend a"gcntlcman of rcspectn
blity." who had been discovered In his
room lying senseless on the floor.
Ho found ids "patient" in great dis
tress of mind.
"What is tho matter with Mr. II.?"
asked tho doctor.
"I am afraid it is apoplexy," said his
wife; "I found him lying upon tho
floor as If he had suddenly fallen from
his chair. Ills faco is purple, nnd he
breathes with great difficulty.
Tho doctor examined tho "patient,"
and finds this report correct, although
ho sees no clearer indications of any
actual or approaching congestion of tho
bruin.
"Hadn't ho belter bo bled, doctor ?"
asked tnennxlous wife.
'.'1 don't know that it is necessary," re
plied tho doctor; "I think If wo lot hlin
alone It will pass on? in tho courso of a
few hours."
"A few hours I ho may dlo In half an
hour I" said tho wife.
"I don't think thoenso issodnngerom,
madam," remarked tho doctor.
"Apoplexy not dangerous 1" said sho.
Tho doctor delicately hinted that ho
might possibly hnvo been drinking too
much brandy.
No, doctor," s.tid,sho"lho diseaso is
moro deeply seated than thai; surely I
should know, lie hail belter bo bled.
Ho had better bo bled. Won't you
bleed him doclorV"
Thus urged, thu doctor took from him
nbotit eight ounces of blood, but still ho
lay insensible.
"Something else must bo done," urged
his wife; "if ho isn't relieved very soon,
ho must dlo I"
The doctor was not the regular phy
sician, nud felt bis position to bo a tlllU
cult ono; ho was therefore firm in his
resolution not to do any thing moro for
tho patient until tho family doctor
camo.
At length he arrived, nnd tho two
doctors conversed aside for a few mo
ments, and then proceeded to the bed
sido of tho patient.
There were still no signs of approach
ing consciousness.
"Don't you think his head ought to
bo shaved and blistered ?" asked tho
wife, noxiously.
"Yes, by all means," said tho doctor.
"Send for the barber nnd a blister at
once."
Tho barber came; the head was shaved,
and a blister applied to the poor man's
skin ; but finally tho pain censed, and
ho slept. When he awoke, his first ex
clamation win
"What's tho matter with my head?
It ecU as if it was scalded. Where's
my hair? And what's my arm tied up
for in this way ?"
His wife told him to be quiet, and ho
sunk back on his pillow with n sullen
gronn. Presently, howover, ho said to
his wife
"Sarah, why in thu namo of goodness
did you let tho doctors butcher mo lu
this way "
"It was to savo your life, dear."
"Savo tho d 1 !''
"Ilush.dear, every thing depends up
on your being quiet."
Ho only moaned, "Too bad ! too
bad 1"
Now tho facts of the caso were, that
ho couldn't take wiuu nor strong drink
without being tempted into excess. To
see was to taste to tnsto wns toall. At
last his friends urged him to shut him-
belf up at homo for a certain time, and
seo if total abstlnenco would not givo
him strength.
Ho got on very well for a time par
ticularly as Ills coachman kept a well-
filled bottlo for him in tho carriage-
house, to which ho not unfrequently
resorted; but n too urdout devotion to
the bottlo brought on tho supposed ap
oplexy. Tho cuio was c ffectual.
Thu patient kept quiet on tho subject,
and horo his shaved head upon his
shoulders with as much philosophy as
ho could muster. A wig, after tho sorea
had disappeared that had been made by
the blister, concealed tho barber's work
uutil his own hair had grown again. Ho
never ventured upon wlno or brandy
afterward, for fear of apoplexy.
When tho truth leaked out ns all
such things will his friends had many
a hearty luugli, but they wisely con-
cenled from tho object of their merrU
ment tho fact that they knew nny thing
moro tlmn appeared of tho cause of his
supposed Illness.

I'ickernnl, it successful dry goods mer

was desirous of getting n boy,for whom
ho was n guardian, n "placo" in Boston
of courso ho was an uncommon smnrt
boy. quick In figures, strong of intui
tion nud ono every wny flt.tis ho should
'Judge,' to become a merchant. Picker
nal thought it o-er, nnd said ho would
try and mnko a placo for him. In duo
tlmo tho boy nrrlved at Plckemel's
store, his broad faco ruddy with health,
and soapy from tho morning wash, his
hair slicked, his clothes now and un
comfortable, nnd it still" dickey cutting
his cars. Ho announced himself as tho
boy, A.c.
"Ah, you aro tho boy, aro you?" said
Plckcrnel.
"Yes, I s'poso so," replied youngster.
"Well, como In here, then: I am verv
busy, but I will examine you In n few
practical questions."
Tho boy camo in and sitting down on
tho desk, swung his heols underneath it
as though ho felt entirely nt home.wnlt-
nig tho questions.
"Well," said Plckcrnel, "supnoso a
lady should como In hero, nnd buy tv
dres3 of fifteen and it half yards of cali
co at eleven und a half cents a yard,
what would It como to?"
Tho boy looked ut his questioner, at
tho ceiling, ut tho floor, In it state of
great bewilderment.
"How much cnlikcr?" ho aked.
"Fifteen and u half yards."
"Whatprico?"
"Klevcn and a lialfccntH."
lie thought u moment.
"Well," said he, "I'm darned if I
b'lievo any woman ever wanted so much
cloth for n dress ns thnt."
This wns throwing up tltosponge.aiid
Pickcrncl put another question.
"How much would fivo and a half
pounds of tea conic to nt soventy-fivo
nnd three qunrter cents per pound ?"
Ho received this pretty much tho
samo as tho other, and nfter waiting a
minute, ho usked
"Wns it green or black tea ?"
Without answering, Pickcrnitl put an
other question
"Suppose I should scud you out witli
a two dollar bill, and you should buy
fourteen and a half pounds of beef at
seven and n half cents n pound, how
much money would you have left ?"
The boy looked nt him for nn instant
mid then indulged in a low whistle.
"You don't s'poso," said he,"you can
get beef anywhere nt seven nnd n half
cents n pound, do yo?"
Plckernel gave up nt this. Ho asked
him no moro questions, but sent him
back next day with a',lettcr,3tating that
be didn't think he would answer.

No ttmptohatli that city for none If needed thcro;
No sun nor moon enllghteneth; can darknen,

Ah! now tho glad revealing, the crounlngjoy of

Hark woro tho walls of Jasper, raylcss the crystal

gentleman was onco riding in Scotland
by a bleaching ground wliero a woman
was at work watering her web of linen
cloth. Ho asked her where she went to
church, what shu heard on the preceding
day, and how much she remembered.
Sho could not even tell tho text of tho
last sermon.
"And what good can tho preaching do
you," said ho, "if you forget it all?"
"Ah sir," replied the poor voman,"lf
you look at this web on the gras, you
will bco that as I put the wutcron it tho
sun dries it nil up; and yet, Sir, 1 sec it
grows whiter and whiter."
Didn't Liki: thi: Idka. A llttlo
girl at ono of our Sunday Schools was
told by her teacher that sho must boa
good llttlo girl in order that when sho
died sho might become an angel. Sho
replied that she did not want to bo an
angel. On being asked why, she replied
that sho didn't wish "to take oil" her
pretty clothes and wear fedders like a
hen." Sho is siiler lo the little boy who
didn't want to "be bom again, for fear
ho might turn out a girl." There Is no
hope for these two children.
"The good died young,
Whllo thoso whoso lives aro dry us sum
mer's dust
Hum to tho socket."
How Aiiout It 1 If somo unseen In
dividual could pass around from houso
to houso about ten o'clock on a Sunday
morning, ho would bo likely to hear a
list of excuses for not attending church,
something llko tho following:
Overslept myself. Could not dress in
time. Too cold. Too windy. Too dusty.
Too wet. Too damp. Too sunny. Too
cloudy. Don't feel disposed. No other
time to myself. Look over my drawers.
Put my papers to rights. Letters to
wrlto to my friends. Menu to tako a
walk. Going to tako a ride. Tied to
business six days in tho week. No fresh
air but on Sundays. Can't breathe in
church, always so full. Feel a little
feverish. Feel n little chilly. Feel very
lazy. F.xpcct company to dinner. New
bonnet not como home.
A ISackwoods ADVr.NTur.i:. A Vir
ginia banker, who was chairman of n
noted infidel club, was onto traveling
through Kentucky, having bank bills
to tho amount of nhout$25,000. When ho
caino to a lonely forest wliero murder
ers and lobbcrs wero said to frequent
hu was soon lost, through taking tlio
wrong road.
Tho darkness of tho night camo over
him and how tu escape from tho threat
eulog danger ho knew not. Iiiblsalurni
ho suddenly espied lu tho distance,
n dim light, and urging his hor.-o on
ward, ho nt length camo to a wretched
cabin, lie knocked, und the door was
opeucd by a woman, who said that her
hushanU was out hunting, but would
boon return. Tho gentleman put. up his
horse und entered tho cabin, but with
feelings that can bo better imagined
linn described. Hero ho was, with a
largo sum of money, and perhaps In tho
houso of ono of tho robbers whoso namo
was a terror to tho country.
In a short timo the man ol the houso
returned. Ho had on a deer skin shirt,
a boar skin cap, much fatigued, nnd in
no tulkntlvo mood. Ho felt for pistols
n his pockets nud placed them to as to
be ready for Instant use.
Tho man asked tho stranger to rctiro
to bed but ho declined, saying ho would
sit liy tho lire nil night. Tho niaiflirged,
but tho moro tho man urged tho moro
thu iullilcl was alarmed. Ho felt ns-
suied that this was his last night upon
earth, but ho determined to sell his life
as dearly us ho could. His Infidel prin
ciples gnvo him no comfort. His fear
grew into ngony What was to bo
dono ?
t length tho backwoodsman arose,
reached to tho wooden shelf, took down
nn old book and snld :
"Well, stranger, if you won't go to
bed, I will; but it is my habit to read n
chapter of tho holy Scriptures before I
go to bed,"
What n chnugo theso words produced.
Alarm was nt onco removed from tho
skeptic's mind, Though avowing him
self nn Infidel, ho now hud coiifldcuco
In tho Hlblo. Ho felt that n man who
kept nn old Hlblo In his house, nnd bent
his knees in prayer, was no robber or
murdorer. Ho listened to tho paryer of
tho good man, at onco dismissed his
fears and laid down, In his rudu cablu
and hlept ns calmly ns ho did under hh
father's roof.
From that tlmo ho ceased to revllo
tho good old Hlblo. IIo becamo n sin
cere Christian, and often related tho
story of his eventful Journey, to vwvo
tho folly of Infidelity.
