JAMIE
"Father, where is our Juntie to-night,
„ ,Jamie so bold and gay ;
The twilight shadows are falling now—
Why does ho stay away ?
Jamie is handsome, and manly too,
Ito will lie good and great ;
But, father, why is our darling boy
Staying away so late?"
"Why, wife, our boy is a child no more,
He has grown to man's estate ;
He has gone a•courting Minnie Gray,
The reason ho stays so late,
For her golden hair and eyes of blue
Have stolen his heart away,
And ho goes in the calm, sweet twilight
A wooing sweet Mary Gray." [hour
"Why does the maiden lure him away
Now we are growing so old?
We hare shielded hint tenderly all his life,
Our love 11119 never grown cold.
The maid can never love him as we
Rave loved him all his years,
Who have led him along the path of life,
Sharing his smiles and tears."
"Bat, mother, remember long years ago,
When I was handsome and gay,
And you a maiden so fair and sweet
That you stole my heart away.
I had a father old and gray,
And a mother kind and true,
Who loved Ina tenderly all their life—
But my heart went out to roe."
A blush crept over her withered 'cheek,
Iler eyes shone clear rind mild ;
No longer she chided the lovely maid
For winning away her child.
She thought of the lovely morn when she
Stood close by her lover's side
In the little church, and time man of God
Made her a happy bride.
DAME GREENMANTLES' TEN
WORKMEN.
The winter evenings at Richard's
farm had begun. After the labors at
the day the whole family were accus
tomed to moot around the fireside and
a few neighbors would drop in and join
the circle; for• in the solitary valleys
of the *Vosges dwellings are sparsely
scattered, and neighborhood establish
es a sort of kindred. There, around
the tiro of pine cones intimacies sprang
up or increased. The genial warmth
of the in,glesido, the joy of meeting, the
flow of talk, lead to confidences; hearts
expand without mistrust, minds min
gle in a thousand projects; we share
in common that life of the soul without
which outward existence is a mere
semblance, but, which reveals itself
only at certain chosen moments
Sometimes, notwithstanding the dis•
tance, Cousin Wiseman himself would
join the evening party, and then the
farm held its festival; for our Cousin
was the best story-teller of the moun
tain. He knew not only all the tra
ditions of the old men but also what is
told in books ! Ho was familiar with
the origin of every old homestead and
with the history of every old family;
he had learned the names of the high
moss-covered stones, which rise on the
heights like columns of altars; he was
in a word, the legendary and the en
cyclopedia of the district.
He was moreover its Oracle! He
had learned to read hearts, and ho sel
dom failed to discover the cause of the
evils that tormented them. Others
could relieve the infirmities of the
body, but oar old peasant was skilled
in r.ernedies for infirmities of the soul;
and for that reason the popular will
bestowed upon him the respected Demo
of Father Wiseman.
It was the first time since the Now
Year that ho had joined the evening
party, and a general cry of joy hailed
his appearance. They gave him the
best place at the fireside, and made
circle around him; whilst Richard,
with his pipe, sat down opposite him.
Father %V iseman inquired after every
body and everything, by turns. Ho
wished to know about the crops,w heth.
er the new colt showed vigor, and the
general state of farmyard affairs. Tho
limner's young wife replied to his
questions without much interest as
though her mind were on other things;
for the pretty Martha often thought of
the gay village in which she was
brought up. She sighed for the dances
under the elm trees, the long walks
through the holds with laughing girls,
gathering flowers in the hedges, the
long ehat - tings by the village oven - and
fountain. So, very often Martha sat,
her arms banging listlessly and her
pretty bead bent forward, whilst her
thought was traveling in the past.
Again this evening, while the other
women were working, the limner's
wife sat before her wheel, silent; the
tiff full of flax rested at her girdle,
and her unconscious fingers played
with the end of the thread hanging
from her lap.
Father Wiseman saw all at a glance,
but be said nothing; for ho know that
advice is like the bitter medicines we
give to children;—to administer it ac•
ceptably the time and the manner
must be well chosen. Meanwhile the
family— and neighbors gather more
closely about him.
"Father Wiseman, a story ! a story'!"
The peasant smiled, and cast it glance
towards Martha who was still unoccu
pied. "That is to say that here ono
must pay for his welcome," said he.
"Very well! it shall be as you please,
good people. Last time, I told you of
those bygone days when armies of par
gans laid waste our mountains; that
was a history for won. To day I shall
talk (by your leave) for the women
and the little children. Every body
must have his turn. Then Caesar claim
ed our attention, now we shall turn fur
a while to I)arne tireenmantle.

This story, my dears, is no nurser)

tale; you might read it in tho almanac
along with other facts; for the adven
tare happened to Grandmother Char
lotte whom Richard knew very well,
and who was a woman of wonderful
courage.
Grandmother Charlotte had been
young. too, in her time, which was hard
to believe when you saw her grey
loeks and her hooked nose always in
communication with her chin; but,
those of her ago said that there was
no better looking or merrier girl in
these parts.
Unthrtunate/y, Charlotte was left
alone with her lather at the head of a
largo farm, more burdened with debts
than with income, so that one labor
succeeded to another, and the poor
girl, who was not made - for so many
cares, often became quite discouraged,
and began to do nothing—the better
to find out the way to do everything.
One day as she was sitting before
the door, her hands under her apron,
she began to murmur, "God pardon
me! but the task that has been laid
upon me is for no Christiangirl, and it
is a great pity that I alone should be
tormented at my age with so many
cares! If I should be more diligent
than the sun, more nimble than water,
and stronger than fire, I could not ac
complished all the work of the house.
! why has the good Fairy Green
mantle deserted the world, or why was
she not invited to my christening? If
she could hear me and would help me,
perhaps even yet L might be rid of my
care, and my faller of his discomfort."
"Be satisfied, hero I am," interrupted
a voice.
And Charlotte perceived before her
Dame Greenmantle,wbo,leaning onjlice
little helly-statT was observing her
clearly.
For a moment the young girl felt
afraid, for the fairy wore a dress not
common in the district; she was cloth
ed entirely in the shin of a frog, the
bend serving for a hood, and she her
self was so ugly, so old, and so wrink•
led that, with a million for a dower,
she would never have found a husband.
However, Charlotte recovered her•
self in time to ask of the Fairy Green
mantle, in a voice rather tremulous,
hut very yet:potful, what she could do
to serve her.
"It is I who have come to serve
thee," replied the old dame. "1 have
heard thy complaint, and I bring thee
relief."
"Ali, do you speak seriously my good
mallet," exclaimed Charlotte, who be
came at once at her case. "Have you
come to give me a piece of your wand,
which will make all my work easy ?"
"Bettor than that," answered Dame
Greemmantlo, "I bring thee ten little
workmen who will do all thy behests."
"Where aro they ?" cried the girl.
"Thou shalt see them in a mon7;ent."
The old dame half opened her cloak
and displayed ton dwarfs of unequal
stature.
Thu first, two worn very short, but
broad and stout.
"These," said she "aro the most vig
orous ; they will help thou in all thy
labors, and will give in strength what
they lack in dexterity. The next are
taller and more skillful; they can milk,
draw the flax from the distaff, and will
attend to all the business of the house;
their brothers, whose taller stature
thou wilt observo,are especially dexter
ous in managing the needle, so I have
given them for head dross a little cop
per thimble. Hero aro two others less
knowing, who have a ring for their
girdle and can do little but assist in the
work of the others like these last, who
mustbo esteemed because of their good
will. The whole ten appear to thee, I
doubt not, very insignificant; but once
see them at work—then judge them.
At these words the old dame made
a sign and the ten dwarfs darted
forward. Charlotte saw them perform
successively the rudest and the most
delicate labors; accommodating them
selves to everything; sufficient for
everything, preparing everything. As
tonished, she uttered a cry of joy, and
extending her arms towards the fairy;
"Alt mother Greentnantle exclaimed
she "Lend me these ton brave work
man, and I ask nothing more in this
world l"
"Better still," replied the Fairy, "I
give them thee, only as thou canst not
carry them about with thee without
being accused of sorcery, I am about
to order them to make themselves still
smaller, and hide themselves in thy ten
fingers."
When this was accomplished,—"Thou
knowest now what treasure thou pos
sessest," resumed dame Greenmantle,
"everything will depend on the use
thou shalt make of it, if thou art una
ble to govern thy little servants, if
they are allowed to become dull by
disuse, thou wilt derive no advantage
from them : but, give them a good
impulse lest they fall asleep—never let
thy fing ers rest, and the work which
dismayed thee will be done as if by
magic."
The fairy spoke the truth, and our
Grandame, who followed her counsels,
not only brought order into the affairs
of the farm, hut laid up a dower,which
enabled her to marry happily, and aid
ed her in bringing up eight children in
comfort and honesty. Since then it is
a tradition among us that she trans
mitted Dame Greenmantle's workmen
to all the women of the family, and at
their least hint the little fellows bestir
themselves to our great advantage.
Thus wo aro accustomed to say amongst
us, that on the activity of tho house
keeper's ten lingers, all the prosperity,
all the joy and all the comfort of the
household depend.
With these last words father Wisema
turned towards Martha. • The young
woman blushed, east down her eyes,
and took up her distaff. Richard and
his Cousin exchanged glances. :rho
whole circle reflected silently on tfi
good man's story. Each ono sought.

seemed about to be rewarded, for
down the street came a large, portly
gentleman, flourishing a cane and look
ing the very picture of good humor.
Sure there's the fat man now, thought
Bridget—and when ho was in front of
the house out she flew and informed
bins that her mistress wished to speak
to him.
"Speak to me, my good girl? replied
the old gentleman.
"Yes sir, she wants to speak to you,
and says would you be good enough
to walk in, sir."
This request so direct was not to he
refused, so in a state of wonderment,
up the steps went the gentleman, and
up the stairs went Bridget, and knock
ing at the mistress' door, put her head
in and exclaimed :
gentleman's in tho parlor,
mum."
So saying, she instantly withdrew
to the lower regions.
"In the parlor," thought the lady;
"what can it mean ? Bridget must
have blundered ;" but down to the
parlor she went, and up rose our fat
friend, with his blandest smile and
most graceful bow.
"Your servant informed me, madam,
that you would like to speak to me—
at your service madam."
The mortified mistress saw the state
of the case immediately, and a smile
wreathed itself' about her lips in spite
of herself, as she afterwards said,
"Will you pardon the terrible blun
der of a raw Irish girl, my dear sir ?
I told her to call in the fat man to
take away the soap grease, when she
saw him, and she has made a mistake,
you see."
The jolly fat gentleman kilned hack
in his chair, and laughed such a hearty
ha! ha he. as never came from any
of your lean gentry.
"It is decidedly the best joke of the
season. Ha I ha I ha ! So she took
me for the soap grease man, did she ?
It will keep me laughing for a month.
Such a joke."
And all up the street around the
corner was heard the merry ha ! ha !
ha ! of the old gentleman,as he brought
down his cane every now and then,
and exclaimed, "Such a joke !"
The Home Paper.
The Cleveland herald makes the
following sensible remarks in relation
to local newspapers:—"lt matters not
how many newspapers a man takes,his
list is not complete without his home
paper. Every citizen who wishes well
ibr his locality, should give a gener
ous support to his home paper. It that
paper is not just such as ho would
wish, he should fool that himself and
neighbors are responsible, in a meas
ure, fur its short comings. Give a pa
per a liberal support, an active sym
pathy, and it will instantly respond tb
such manifestations. Let an editor
feel that his efforts are appreciated,
apd lie is the most responsive being on
earth ; his paper being a part of hun
self, ho is a sensitive to praise or cen
sure as a doting lather. Nothing can
supply the place or the home paper.
It is the mirror in which the town
and neighborhood news is reflected ;
in the social, political and religious
circle where printed, it fills a place
that no other paper can. When a need
of economy compels the curtailment
of your newspaper list, strike off every
other one befure'you say to the pub
fisher of your home journal. "Stop
my paper:' The man who does not
read the advertisements in * his home
paper, can never be said to be well
posted. The advertisements indicate
not only the business enterprise of the
place in which they are published, but
the enterprise of the advertiser. When
you see a man who advertises liberal
ly, you may be certain of finding a
good stock of goods in his store, that
ho keeps up with the market., and
sells cheaper than those who do not
advertise. If you want good ban
gains, always patronize those who
avail themselves of the, advantages af
forded through the advertising columns
of the home paper."

modern marriage service should read

A Disgusted Frenchman,
A Frenchman in this country, who
was little acquainted with horse-jock
eys or horse flesh, was grievously ta
ken in the purchase of a steed. He
gave one hundred dollars for a miser
able jade of an old mare that had
been fattened up to sell, and turned
out, to ho ringboned; spavined, blind
and wind broken. The Frenchman
soon discovered that ho had been used
up in the trade, and went to request
the jockey to take back the animal
and refund the money.
"Sare," ho said, "I have fetched
back dci mare horse vat you sell me,
and I vaut de money in my pocket
back.
"Your pocket back ?" returned the
jockey, feigning• surprise. "I don't
understand you."
"You stand under me," said the
Frenchman, beginninr , to gesticulate
furiously ; "you stand under me—sare,
by gar—you bo von grand rasoalle—
you be like Sam—like Sam vat you
call do little mountain 7"
"Sam Hill, - I suppose you mean,"
said the jockey.
"Oui, monsieur—Sam do Hill—yes
sure, you be like two Sam Hill. You
sell me one mare for one hundred dol
lars—and ho no vorth vun hundred
cent, by gar !"
" hy, what was the matter with
the beast ?"
“Mattair ! snare I mattair, did you
say ? Vy, he's all mattair—ho no go

"Refund the money? 0 no, I could
not think of such a thin; ; ."
"Vat ! You no fund me back de
money? You shoat me vid ono hun

"I never promised you that she
would go."
"By gar ! vat is one horao good for

"The interest is what I go for."
"Yes sore, your interest is no prin..

Failing to obtain redress from the
jockey, the poor Frenchman sent his
"mare horse" to the auctioneer to be
sold. Bat ho seemed to be a great
jockey, for he took good care that the
fees for selling should cat av the price
he got for the steed.
"By gar," said the Frenchman,
when relating the story, "I be sheeted

A DuEr. AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.—An
amusing duel took place near Havana,
Cuba. It originated in a remark
made by a man to his friend on seeing
a lady coming out of church. The lady
was unknown to the person making
the remark, but happend to be the
other's wife. A slap in the face was
the consequence, and a challenge came
soon after. This was accepted, and the
seconds selected a place. The wife
hot wind of the affair and immediate
ly took steps to prevent the dreaded
catastrophe. Her first thought was to
notify the police, but that might have
given her husband the reputation of
a coward, and site took a bettor meth
od by going to the house of the other
party, where she met with his wife,
and a plan was soon concocted be
tween the females. On the - morning
appointed for the duel both husbands
got up early; wives ditto. Husbands
took carriages, and their wives—one
armed with five children and the oth
er with three—took other vehicles in
waiting. When the two duelists ar
rived at the spot they were somewhat
astonished on seeing the two other
carriages driNte up with their passen
gers, who coolly informed the men
that they also had "cometo fight, so as
to make it a complete family quarrel,
each at the same time producing an
empty purse and a package of baby
linen as their arras and munitions of
war. The little ones had pop-guns
and lire-crackers, and soon some in
dulged in a cry After viewing the
state of affairs, the blood-thirsty Ben
edicts made peace on the spot, end
returned to Havana to celebrate the
affair over an elegant dinner.

An Editor in a Bleoping-Car.
A. K. McClure, editor of the dim:
)ersburg Repository, who is now on a
tour to the Rocky Mountains, gifEis
the following as his experience in
sleeping car :
"A sleeping-oar alWays makes a jol
ly, family-like company, and there is
nothing that obviates the convention
alities of society so speedily and so
thoroughly in tho matter of getting ac
quainted, as 'turning in' on board of
one of these wandering lodging houses,.
When we start out, all or most of the
company strangers to each other, all
of course observe due dignity and al
low acquaintance to win its way by
gradual approaches. Now and then
a rollicking baby will force' a smile
from some sympathetic mother distant
from her loved ones, and the mothers
at once become friends, relate their
travels, discuss their homes, husbands,
babies, houses, pullets and poodles,
and divide their lunch baskets. .A.
wayward boy or a lovely girl, with
sunbeams dancing on her face as if
they were playing upon the rippling
stream, will insensibly break the reti
cence of the bachelor, gather the spare
candies, nuts and cakes from the poc
kets of the fathers, and end the cam
paign by a friendly chat between the old
folks. One little blue-eyed, taffy-curl
ed girl emptied my pockets of the de
bris of my last campaign among the
children of Allegheny, and made me a
willing purchaser of all the Jim cracks,
the train-vender had to tickle the fancy
or palate of these miniature editions
of ourselves. Of course the mother
was appreciative, and a pleasant ac
quisition was added to our party, to
last till we reach the plains. Thus do
the genial and the obdurate alike BUN
render to railroad acquaintances in a
sleeping-car, and when night comes,
we all seem much as ono family, mu
tually sympathetic and generous. A.
woman may even crimp her hair be
fore the bachelor without incurring a
surly remark, and prodigious water
falls, and hoops, and ribbons, and ten
thousand other things which pertain
to female adornment, may be scattered
in wild profusion around the car,
swinging from hooks, and impeding
locomotion by side blockades, but all
is taken in good part, and there is peace
and good will in the groat family
than improvished upon a few hour's
acquaintance. Occasionally a coy
damsel or a veteran spinster seem to
rebel against the free and easy man
fors of the sleeping car; but they
merely make themselves uncomforta
ble and are sure to provoke just that.
and comment they least want.
I pity a fastidious old maid in a sleep
ing car. She always keeps watching
everybody else with such palpable 808 ,
picion that she compels everybody to,
watch her, and her most studied ef
forts to protect herself from profane
eyes and speech make a score of oyes
peer in upon her from behind curtains
and by side glances, while the lady
who accepts the situation goes free.
If a mishap falls to the lot of any in a
sleeping ear, it invariably falls to the
one who tries most spasmodically to,
avert it, and there are few who do.
not enjoy it when the moment of con-.
fusion comes. When people do their
best, they cannot secure the privacy
that most persons would prefer, but
when all agree to clothe best they can,
the great mantle of charity hides
what the more tangible fabrics fail to
protect from the gaze of the curious
or rude."
BEAD TO THE Exp.—The Scranton.

following anecdote, if not for the fact

for the purpose of getting him to sub
scribe. "Indeed ladies," said ho, "the
partnership of which .I. am but an hum
ble member has lately been so impru
dent as to issue a new work of their
own, which in 'consequence of the enor
mous expense attending its illustrtions,
embellishments, &c., has completely
crippled us." "Then perhaps," replied
the angelic canvassers, "we could pro
cure you some subsCribers. What dee
you call your work ?" "Well,_we have
not fully determined on that yet, but'.
