It is almost impossible to overrate
the sagacity of a dog, or his affection
towards Lis master. Many stories
have been told of dogs who have re
membered their master after years of
absence ; and of some who would not
forsake them in their graves oven pre
ferring starvation to being separated
from them.
I am going to relate two anecdotes
of dogs that have come under my
own •knowledge. One is of a black
retriever, a very -handsome dog, be.
longing to Captain Knollys, who was,
at that time, living in a cottage which
he had taken for the purpose of fish
ing. An old woman, who cooked for
'Jima and his dog Nora, were the only
inmates of his house. One morning
he received a letter which obliged him
to set off immediately to meet a friend
upon business. He did not particu
larly wish to take Nora with him, but
the old woman was so alarmed at the
responsibility of having charge of the
dog even for a day; that, as he thought
it more than probable that Nora would
attempt to follow him and be lost in
consequence, he agreed to take her.
It was before railroads had penetrated
into the heart of the country, and
Captain -Knollys had ton miles to
drive before he could meet the stage
which was to take him to the city, lie
desired to visit. Nora, who had been
walking round her master in a very
unsettled state of mind, as soon as she
saw the carpet bag, that always ac
companied him when be travelled,
knew perfectly well that a journey
was impending, and jumped upon
him, licking his hand, as if imploring
not to be lett behind.
if O,;CTIVDON, PA
El!=l1T!
"You will have a long way to run,
Nora, if I take you, for no ono will
give a lift to such a great dog as you,"
ho said, patting her. "Will you
come, or stay home 1" Nora answer
ed by wagging her tail and lying
down by the side of the bag, which
was packed and put in the hall with
the stick, fishing-rod, and umbrella,
evidently waiting for the gig to come
to the door. As soon as she heard
the wheels she jumped in, as if there
should be no further question of
leaving her. She curled herself up
under the seat, remaining perfectly
quiet till they reached the village
through which the coach was to pass.
It was a lumbering two-horse vehicle,
and went slowly enough through a
wild and . hilly country. Captain
ilinollys merely told Nora to follow,
and concerned himself no more about
her, meaning to petition the driver to
take her up at the end of the first
stage if she was tired.
Office on Hill street
Nora trotted on in the middle of
the read, looking neither to the right
nor the left, without deigning to notice
the yelping little curs that snarled
and barked at her as the coach passed
through the many small villages that
lay in their road.' rhe stage was
rather crowded on the outside, and
Captain Knollys finding hie carpet
bag in the way tied it to the bar of
the seat with a piece of strong cord
that he happened to have in his pocket.
Strong as it was,
however, it soon be•
came worn by the continual friction,
and after a few miles was quite cut,
through, when, of course, the bag fell
to the ground. Poor Nora must have
been terribly perplexed when she saw
it fall, for she kpew that she ought to
follow her master, and also that it
was her duty to take care of his bag.
Perhaps she fancied that it had been
thrown down expressly to be left in
her charge.
When the coach arrived at its des
tination, Captain linullys whistled for
.Nora, but she was nowhere to be seen,
and to his still greater consternation
his bag was gone also, though the bit
of rope which remained dangling to
the iron bar told its own story. lie
could not continue his journey with.
out his carpet bag, and to lose Nora
would have been a real sorrow. Ile
was obliged to let the stage go on
without him, while ho walked some
way back, but seeing nothing he went
back to the inn. There he hired a
carriage, meaning to return by the
read by which he had come till he
could dud his bag, or hear something
of Nora. lie drove several miles
without seeing anything either of his
dog or his bag, and was beginning to
feel very uneasy as to what might
have befallen both, when, at the top
of a steep bill, ho saw something that
looked like a huge black bundle
slowly approaching. As he came
nearer, he saw that it was his own
good dog, who, believing that two
conflicting duties had fallen to her
share, that of following her master

and of taking caro of his property,
had contrived to combine them, and
had walked several miles dragging
the earpot bag along the road with
her teeth.
as soon as sho saw her master she
lay down, panting and exhausted, as
if to say,
"Now I have done all I can
for you, I hope, at least, that you will
relieve me of my burden, and give
me a lift." Captain Knollys put her
into the carriage at once, and re
warded her sagacity by giving Nora
a place by his side. -
The other dog I am going to tell
you about was one of a different kind,
cud who had not near such a gentle,
amiable disposition our friend Nora.
Rapi) ivits' a mastiff, especially
good tempered dog, and very capri
cious
.in his likes and dislikes. He
belonged to who had sent
him to ho trained. There ho attached
himself especially to the trainer's
daughter, and was her constant com
panion. It happened that when Rapp
was considered fit to be promoted to
live in the house, this girl was at the
same time taken into the house as
kitchen-maid. It was part of her
duty to got up very early, so w as to
light all the fires in the offices before
the other servants came down. To
do this, she was obliged to cross a
court-yard several times to fetch wood
from the wood house. As soon as
over the stable door was opened in the
morning, and Rapp lot free, be came
to the .kitchen-door, and whined till
the girl left him in, looking about after
her till she had finished the morning
work.
"Oh, Rapp," she said to hint one
day, as he stood by, wagging his tail
and sniffing at her shoulders, as she
was lighting the kitchen tiro, "I shall
never get wood enough. now I wish
you could help mo to carry in the
sticks ; I should be able to got twice
as much in the time..": The next day
the girl took . Rapp with her into the
wood-house, and putting a fagot into
his mouth taught him to accompany
hey back to tbo house, and to carry
the sticks for her. A day or two
afterwards she found, to her surprise,
that when she let him into the kitch
en in the morning he had a fagot in his
mouth. Delighted with his sagacity,
she patted him, gave! him something
to cat, and sent him back to the wood
house for more. By degrees, he under
stood so well what sho wanted that be
brought fire=wood into the house for her
every morning, the girl always thank
ing him, and giving him a plate of cold
meat when he lied brought enough.
This went cm •ror - sCnn6 time, and
had
. become the dog's daily habit,
when one day that the family were
going away very early the girl was
so hurried that Poor. Rapp was • quite
unnoticed. She saw, however, that
he had brought in the sticks as usual,
and laid them on the hearth ; but she
did not light the fire immediately,
and, to her surprise, saw the dog,
after waiting a few Minutes, deliber
ately take fagot after fagot in his
mouth, and carry them away. Curious
to see what ho intended to do with
them, she followed him quietly, and
saw that he had put them back in
the place from whence he had taken
them. Ho evidently had no inten
tion of working without payment, and
chose this way of testifying his dis
pleasure.
A Singular Adventure.
Once upon a time a traveler stepped
into a stage coach. He was a young
man starting in life. He found six pas
sengers about him, all gray headed
and extremely aged men. The young
est appeared to have been at least
eighty winters. Our young traveler,
struck with the singular mild and hap
py aspect which distinguished all his
fellow passengers, determined to as
certain the secret of a long life and art
of making old ago comfortable ; ho ad.
dressed the ono apparently the eldest
who told him ho had always led a
regular and abstemious life, eating
vegetables and drinking water. The
young man was rather daunted at this,
inasmuch as he liked the good things
of this life. He addressed the second,
who astonished him by saying he had
always eaten roast beef; and gone to
bed regularly fuddled for the lastseven•
ty years, adding,all depended on regu
larity. The third had prolonged his
days by never seeking or accepting.
office ; the fourth by resolutely
ab
staining from all political or religious
controversies ; and the fifth by going
to bed ;it sunset and rising, at dawn.
The six was apparently much young
er than the other five—his hair was
less gray and there was more of it--
a placid smile, denoting a perfectly
easy conscience, mantled his thee, and
his voice was jocund and strong.
They were all surprised to learn
that he was by ten years the oldest
man in the coach.
"How is it that you have thus pre
served the freshness of life ?" exclaim
ed our young traveler.
The old gentleman immediately an
swered the young traveler by saying :
"I have drank water and wine—l
have eaten meat and vegetables—l
have dabbled in politics and written
religious pamplets—l have sometimes
gone to hod at midnight; and got up
at sunrise and at noon," he then fixing
his eyes intensely upon the young
man, Concluded with this singular re
mark : "But 1 always pay promptly
for my newspapers."

How an Editor gets Criticised.
To run the local department of a
newspaper in a town not out of its
pentalottes, is a job the difficulties of
which are but dimly appreciated by
those who never undertook it. If a
body would get up a "local" less dry
than a basket of chips; if ho would
pepper, and spice and salt and sauce
it ;
if ho would indite something sort
of lively, brisk, gingery, then with ono
sot of readers, the fat is all in the fire,
and the "local" is exerting a bad in
fluence. li, on the other hand, be puts
on a long, sactimonions face, writes
lugubrious locals, with Lindley Mur
ray, Baxter's Saint's Rest (?) and the
Martyrs before him ; records common
events gloomily and haltingly as some
Christians travel the "narrow path,"
then another sot of readers would
make no bones of telling him to his
face that they would much prefer a
"wooden man" for a "local" to him.
And, then, again, some people are for
ever gettino• ' " their toes stepped on by
the "local" for which he ought to be
kicked, in their humble opinion, and
that individual is always "hitting"
somebody in items that have no refer
ence to anybody in heaven or earth ;
double entendres, and heathen inuend
oes aro met with where nothing of the
kind exists; and to sum it all up, the
"local" is a cuss anyhow. Ono's liter
entry taste is violated I another's mor
al sensibilities are butchered; another's
religious notions are earthquaked, and.
still another dock like the "local" de
partment because of its.pretensions-to
literature, morals, and religion. Ono
don't find fun in the "local"; an
other don't see so much gravity as he
would ; ono wants the "local" to do a
wholesome business at "pitching into"
somebody ; another won't 'read it be

CONVERSATION.- how incalculably
would the tone of conversation be hn
proved if it offered no. exceptions to
the example of Bishop Beveridge-!
"Reserve never to speak of a man's
virtues to his face, nor his faults be
hind his back." - A golden rule, the
observance of which would at once
banish flattery and defamation from
the earth: Conversation stock being
a joint and common property, every
one should take a share in it, and yet
there may be societies in which silence
will be our best contribution. When
lsocratcs, dining with the King of
Cyprus, was asked why he did not
mix in the discourse ot the company,
he replied, "What is seasonable I do
not know, and what I know is not
seasonable." A brilliant talker is not
always liked by those whom he has
lutist amused, for we are seldom pleas
ed with those who have in any way
made us feel our inferiority. "The hap
piest conversation," says Dr. Johnson,
"is that of which is distinctly remem
bered, but which leaves behind a pleas
ing impression." "No one," says Dean
Locker, "will ever shice in conversa
tion who thinks of saying fine things ;
to please, ono must say many things
indifferent and many very bad." This
last rule is rarely broken in society.
POWER OF AN AX..—The other day I
was holding a man by the hand—a
hand as firm in its outer texture as
leather, and his sunburnt face was. as
inflexible as parchment—ho was pour
ing forth a tirade of comtemptmn those
who complain that they got nothing to
do, as an excuse for becoming idle
loaferb.
Said I, "Jeff, what do you work at ?"
"Why, said he, "I bought mo an ax
three years ago, that cost mo two dol
lars. That was all the money I had.
I went to chopping wood by the cord.
I have done nothing else, and have
earned ma . ro than $6O; drank no grog,
paid no doctor, and have bought me a
little farm in tho Hoosier State, and
shall be married next week to a girl
who has earned $2OO since she was
eighteen. My old ax I BMW keep in
the drawer, and buy me a new ono to
cut wood with."
After I left him I thought to my.
self : "That ax and no grog." These
aro the things that make a man in the
world. How small a capital that ax—
how sure success with the motto, 'No
grog." And then a farm and a wife,
the best of all.

Knocked About,
It is a good thing for a man to be
knocked about in the world, though
his soft-hearted parents may not think
so. All youths, or if not all, certainly
nineteen-twentieths of the sum total,
enter life with a surplusage of self
conceit. The 'sooner they aro relieved
of it the better. If, in measuring them
selves with wiser and older men, they
discover that it is unwarranted, and
get rid of it gracefully, of their own ac
cord, well and good; if not, it is desir
able, for their own sakes, that it be
knocked out_of them.
A boy who is sent too large school
soon finds his level. His will may.
have been paramount at home; but
schoolboys are demoCratie. in their
ideas, and it arrogant,'ho is sure to be
thrashed into a recognition of the gold
en rule. The world is a great public
school, and it soon teaches a new pupil
his proper place. If he has -the attri
butes that belong to a leader, he will
be installed into the position Of leader ;
if not,whatever his own opinion of his
abilities may be,he will be compelled to
tall back with the rank and file. If
not destined to greatness, the next
best thihg which be fan aspire to is
respectability; but no man can be eith
er truly great or respectable who is
vain, pompous, and overbearing.
By the time the novice has found
his legitimate social position, be the
same high or low, the probability is
that the disagreeable traits of his char-
acter will be softened down or worn
away. Most likely, the process of
abrasion will bo rough, perhaps very
rough; but when it is all over, and he
begins - to see himself as others see him,
and not as reflected in the mirror of
self-conceit, he will be thankful that
he has run the gauntlet, and arrived,
though by a rough road at self-knowl
edge. Upon the whole, whatever lov
ing mothers may think to the contrary,
it is a good thing for youths to be
knocked about in the world: it makes
men of them.
Never Give Up.
Many a premature death has Occur
ed in consequence of giving up. The
sick person hecomesdiseouragod,thinks
be is going to die, and dies. Friends
think they have done all they could,
death is inevitable, mullet disease take
its course. There can be no doubt but
that in many such cases hope still cher
ished, and the persevering use of
meanly might have saved useful life.
So also in the struggles of active life.
The first. speeciii--of-IM:reteli -in the
House of Commons, was a complete
failure, his speech it is said being
stifled in the derisiVe laughter of the
House. He thus closed: "I shall eit
down now, but the time will come
when you will hear it." Numbers have
sunk into insignificance under a less
rebuff. Disraeli was made of sterner
stuff. Though it took_him seven yeas
to recover from his disaster, he redeeni
ed his promise, and on becoming chan
cellor of the exchequer, "clad in the
same garments ho had worn at the
time of his renowned failure, delivered
to a closely crowded assemblage the
most brilliant and the ablest budget
speech that had been heard there since
the days of William Pitt."
Every one should feel that he is
im
mortal till his work is done. "Try
again," is as good for the adult as for
the dld. If convinced that our cause
is wrong, the sooner it is renounced
the better. Cease to dO evil; but when
contendingfor the right, admit no de
feat as final. Wo learn sometimes
more from a failure than a success,
and turn it to better account. Such
should ever be our aim. Use all lion•
orable means, rely on the ultimate tri
umph of right, persevere in the effort
to deserve success, and failure will
never be inscribed on your life work
The irresolute and halfhearted have.
no good to expect, for that would only
be a premium of imbecility.
EgrWhen girls are groWn up they
begin to be courted and caressed; then
they think, that the recommending
themselves to the affection of the men
is the only business they have to at
tend to and so presently fall to trick
ing, and dressing, and - . practising all
the little engaging arts peculiar to their
sex. In those they place all their
hopes, as they do all their happiness
in the success of thenL But it is lit
they should be given to understand,
that ithere are other attractions much
more powerful than these ; that the re
spect we pay them is not due to their
beauty, so much as to their modesty
and innocence, and unaffected virtue
And that these are the true, the irre
sistible charms, such as will make the
surest and must lasting conquests.

A Curse to the Country,
Next to thelnordinato.use of intox
icating beverages we may probably
class the haste to become rich as a de•
plorable evil—the'desire and expecta
tion of getting something for nothing,
or for a very inadequate equivalent, if
we may use the word in such a sense
—which lead so many of our youth to
abandon trades in order to swell' the
crowds of clerks, lawyers, doctors, &0.,
now and always so largely in expose of
the demand _for their services: A de
sire to bo rich is not in' itself wrong,
but the tendencyls not to scruple at
the means, and to.end.in diagram and
.
There are cases where a young man
is justifiable in gettinginto debt—there
aro cases where a few years of a strug
gle with indebtedness may do him good
—but these aro "the exceptions which
prove the rule" correct that - debt is in
compatible with independence, and
should be avoided. Borrowing money
on interest is a curse to any, young
man, eating up his earnings and
_keep
ing him poor. The man who saves
even a'few dollars a,•year, and invests
it at interest, will eventually become
rich whilst the ono who borrows to
make up the deficit occasioned by ex
travagance, or 'venturing beyond his
means ; will undoubtedly struggle all
his life to keep his head above water.
Avoid "speculation," mistrust all
schemes promising returns, whether
lotteries, fai'Qbanks, or more reapecta
hie modes of gambling; be assured that
any gains that may accrue from them
are more than lost by the taste they
give for inordinate risks. If you call
to mind the lucky individuals who
have become wealthy in this way in
the past twenty years, you
nearly all.of them poor now—the mon
ey has gone as rapidly as it came, and
is teaching the same lesson to its pres
ent possessors. A dollar earned by
honest industry, mental or physical, is
worth more to the man who earns it
than tenfold gained by.speculation,and
is not near so likely' to be expended
foolishly or risked recklessly-. He Who.
can save such a dollar will more probete
bly accumulate wealth in life than the
one without industry who makes more
money with less work.. It is deplora
ble how many of our young unmarried
mon waste their earnings in folly and
dissipation, and are "too poor to get
married"—or, if they marry,, have ac
quired such tastes and habits as tend
to render that relation anything but an
agreeable one. There ean•bo no good
reason for a young lady and healthy
single man, having no ono dependent
upon him, not saving something every
year for investment, and it is to be re
gretted so few do so.
A Chicago paper contains the folloW- .
ing confession made by a prisoner av
raigned before the police court of that
city for drunkenness; "I am A. P.:
Griffin. I want to call myself Smitb i
but I cannot tell a lie. 'l'd be sure to
betray myself. Last night I visited 'a
friend; and took supper with . him.
Brandied peaches wore on the table,
and I ate many of them. They were
nice, and I had an appetite. Strange
to say, they improved my conversa
tional powers. I was witty. When
ever I spoke every one langhed. I got
off a conundrum. I was wicked; but
oh, how funny. It was "which of. the
Apostles is good to drink !" Paul, be.-
cauSe a pall is a bier. It's , a 'rule of
three conundrum.
Then I loft for home. I havn'treach-,
od it yet. On my way there a mission,
ary awoke in me. I would see what a .
haunt of iniquity a rum shop lookdd
like. I called for brandied peaches
without the
_peaches. It was given
me, and I drank it. •The bar-keeper
demanded twenty cents. Said I:
"Friend, I am a missiunarys. Conse
quently I shall pay thee in tracts. Hero,
are two dozen of them. Read and .
profit thereby." He wouldn't third
them. Ho cursed mo. Then I got,
angry, and forgot that I was a Chris
tian. I said 'confound you! But I had
to pay him. It would seem that some
times the wages of sin are twenty
cents. What I did after that I don't
know, I know my head aches. ,I.know . - .
my hair is filled with ashes. I know I
am a wicked sinner.
Now, Mr. Justice, don't fine me. HI
didn't not right when • I Was drunk, it
wasn't my fault. There is no hand
book of drunkenness to teach rile, J.
am going to write out niflast night's
experience. It will be in the form of
a tract. I will send yon sonic that
will make some nice Christmas gifts."

drunk on peaches, A. Y. was finedslo.
"MY BOY DMUNK !—D s runk ! my boy:
drunk I" and the tears started from the
mother's eyes, as she bent her head in
unutterable sorrow.. Zn that moment.
the vision of a useful and honorable ca
reer was destroyed, and one of Worth
lessness, if not absolute dishonor, Iwo-.
rented itself. Well did she know that
'intemperance walks hand in hand with
poverty, Asia° and death ; and her
mother-heart was pierced as with sharp
pointed steel. Ah I young man, if th 4
holy feeling of love for her who here
you is not dead within you, shun that
which gives her pain, adhere to that
which gives her joy. If she is with you
on earth, she does not, 'cannot, desire to
see her son a drunkard; if she is, with
her Father in Heaven she shuns that
course of life which shuts the gates of
[[carets against you, and debars you
from her society threver. The drunkard
cannot inherit the Kingdom of God.
