SOMEBODY'S BOY.
BY BARTON K. rauscon
Is somebody's Mother thinking ,
That somebody's boy gets "tight,"
While somebody's boy is drinking ,
Somewhere or other to=night
Who was that somebody lugging
To heavy It load to-day .
Of brandy and rum, and hugging
The posts on the corner, oh ?
Who is that handsome fellow,
The handsomest face wo meet,
Who comes homo so late and so mellow
Ile cart scarcely keep hie feet?
Who is that somobody'reeling
First from the-loft to the right,
With empty pockets, yet feeling
As rich 11:i Creams to-eight 1
Ah ! pavements have grown unsteady ;
They wave like a wind blown sheet,
And have interfered already
With somebody's drunken "feet."
And still to the world his drinking
Is neither hero nor there;
But somebody's pa, I'm thinking,
Or sister or mother would care.
He'll wake to.morrow, it's patient,
And he'll conic down stairs all right,
And look almost if ho hadn't
Been out on a "tear" last night.
And somehody's mother-nnd sibt9r, ' •
When told that brothel: gets "tight,"
Aro almost inclined to blister
Your oheekn with their hands outright
But somebody's sins are wearing
'rho jewel of life away ;
And somebody's boy wayfaring,
Will die on the 'street inme day.;
The ."• Sweeping Brigade,"
"Invisible," the Harrisburg corres•
pondent of the Blair County Radical,
thus 'writes Of thelchweePtat'brigade:
The "sweeping . brigade" is one of
the institutions of the Capitol. it
numbers sixty women, divided into
three companies of twenty each—•ten
for each house—and each does duty
two evenings a week. At precisely
six o'clock each week day; high up
goeS the !Argo Windows and in rushes
the keen, bracing air of the Susque
hanna, penetrating every nook and
corner oldie chambers and committee
rooms and admonishing the tardy leg
-1"1!11.032,_1.0
ills Premise's Wifh
mop and broom, cloth and brush, the
charge is made.. Ono platoon pierces
the centre of the one hundred and fif•
ty-seven spittoons, another keeps an
enfilading fire with sand and, soap
upon the unpretending, nnoffending
fenders that stand picket between leg
islative coat-tails and the material fire
of the hickory back-logs behind, and
another, still, captures the little wil•
Hems and unhatched snakes that have
carelessly found their way outside of
desk locks to the floor. The avalanche
of little bits of paper. segar stumps,
peanut shells, apple cores, bits of cake,
(for legislators, as old Abe Lincoln
onto said of Presidents, "aro only men
of ter all," and have more stomach
than brains,)and so forth, that rolls
down the main isle, proclaim the bri
gade more than mistresses of the situ
ation. This sweeping process lasts
ono hour and costs the State fifty cents
apiece for each woman, or $lO a
night.
=I
The contests for these little crumbs
are often fought with an earnestness
similar to the masculine tilts for the
higher positions; and on the evenings
the two Chief Clerks make the selec
tions (usually about the middle of the
first week,) the excitement in the Ro
tunda among the applicants and their
children, often equals that of the stern
er crowd awaiting a caucus delibera
tion.
I have often lookdd on as the
sweepers were announced, and pitied
in my inmost soul many who have
been disappointed. For there aro ma
ny deserving women who fail at each
annual selection, but through no fault
of the Clerks It may seem strange
to the Radical's, readers that Clerks
should be importuned night and day
by applicants and even Members, for
positions worth but a dollar por week;
but your renders arc morn familiar
With tliii - Mti‘iitifadtird of iron and - the"
growing of wheat than the wiles of
the legislature. Many, many, ask em
ployment only for the Utile pittance—
others, for other purposes. To some
the hour's service is life to a helpless
family of nearly starving little ones as
dear .to the, mother ,as : life,itself—to
otbbririt . is an ifitrodu6tion, an' adier•
tisoment. Their history is not briefly
told. In many cases it is the old ato
m). Some work in tbe,cotton factories

other visible means of support; some
are married; some not; some widows;
some, "war widows"; some, old and
wrinkled and haggard; some, young
and comely to It:Mk:lo6th To virtuous :
ones, sweepingjhere,is the last resort;
Strong drink andidesertion has driven
many a noble wife and mother to ask
labor from the State: could

;Compulsory Attendance at School;
ThO following remarks were made
by Mr. S. D. Caldwell; a teacher from
Morris, at the recent! session of the
County Institute :
MR. PRESIDENT-FELLOW MEMBERS :
Sensible of the honor conferred upon
mo I rise to cast ,into the scale of Pub•
Ile Opinion my slight influence in fa
vor of a law compelling children to
attend school.
Conscious of the fact that many,
very many voices aro against it, I' ap.
pear as its advocate, believing that
,such legislation would be both just,
and beneficial to the youth of our
land.
It is but justice to them that they
should be educated, and if they in
their ignorance prefer to remain away
from places of instruction, and their
parents in their foolishness, allow them
to do so, I say it is the duty of those
who are entrusted with the care of
our country to provide a law for such
an ,exigency. When we notice how
small a number of the youthful portion
of our population attend school, the
necessity for such a law becomes at
once apparent.
Some object to a law of this' kind
because it would exercise, or seem to
exercise too much authority over
their children.
In answer to this objection,, serious
as it may at, first appear, I would
simply say, 'that the parent who is
doing, his duty toward his child, by
sending him to shool, will not consider
such a law as usurping his authority,
and as for those who aro Nor doing
their duty, in this respect, toward the
children God has given them, 'it 'is
about time some one else was doing it
for them.
If a parent shows himself incompe
tent, or unwilling to direct his offspring
aright 7 -if he appears satisfied to let
thorn wrap' ua their talents in a 'napkin
and turn them down into th'o earth
with a plow—it is time 60y1.3 oho' Was
speaking for. his defeneoless, and inno,
cent children. And who,or.what can
do this more effectually and decidedly
than can a litw'of our country ? '
Some one will say, I had to stay
ut home when I was young and work,
instead of sitting at my ease in a
school,rontn—and I do not intend that
my childnii - shall faro any better in
this respect than 'I did."
I haVo'often.heard men talk in this,
strain and a peculiar absenee of
7,4 sys l a:. di , lllay d, - "Then wo
hear persons talc - after tide firshion.--L-
Men who would hurler away ibeir l
childreifs happiness for the sake' of
amassing -a little more wealth—who
would, deprive their children of an
edUcation, merely because they can
save a few more dirty, greasy dollars,
or because they themselves wore so
unfortunate in youth as to be depriv
ed of such an opportunity. 1 say,
men who could safer forget their duty
to—and bo gni!ty of such base conduct
toward the children God has given
them, are, to use the mildest term ap
plicable, ignorant and unworthy the
gift.of a child, much less absolute au
thority over ono.
Gentlemen, the time has passed
when an ignorant, honest nation can
stand. We must have an intelligent,
and a very intelligent people to decide
• the great and intricate questions
which will rise ere many years have
passed over the head of this people ;
and if an intelligent people we must
have;. to preserve the gift of our fore
gathers from dissolution and ruin.

It is, I repeat, into the hands of an

to hand over the ruins of this govern

generation —"shall shuffle ,off this

Foolishness of Intemperance.
BY "BROIL' POMEROY."
The habit of liquor drinking:io,AO
our mind, the most foolish; inexcusa
ble piece of destructive nonsense in
the world. And nowhere is it more
prevalent than in cities. The money
poured down the throats of mon each
year is greater than the amount spent
for improvements: Whiskey-shops,
saloons, gin -mills, beer-cellars, wine
rooms, and all sorts of irrigational de
vices and places to fool away money,
are found by the hundreds and thous
ands in cities. If a man is tired, he
drinks. IF doing nothing, - he must
have a nip each hour..lf too warm, he
takes a mint julep. If too cold, a hot
whiskey. if he is by himself, out
comes a flask or bottle. If 'in compa
ny, he stands treat till his money bo
gone; then, like a, dead beat, sits
areund'fill some
r one asks him up.
A man on 'moderate 'salary steps
into a saloon, invites half-a-dozen
friends to; drink, pays half a dollar or
more, and walks Three or' four
times a day-he
,repeats this,' and al
'ways drinks when asked. It is social.
Jlen mean nothing by it. But during
•the week half a man's salary is poured
down hiS throat, detitroying his stom
ach, weakening his nerves, over-ex
citing his brain, robbing himself and
fomily of money . needed :for abet'
-purposes. -But it ie.s9citil I Drink in

But it is Social !
We believe a•'m:ie' has 'a right to
kill himself suddenly or by slow poison.
It may be none of our business in the
abstract, yet we are sorry to sce'men'
fooling themselves away, dying like
weeds in a gutter; 'when they might
be men, upright, healthy, loved, and
useful ; of benefit to themselves and
others. And this is why we write'
against intemperance. Health is too
precious to be wasted. Manhood is'
too noble to be thrown into the gut
ter. Life is ton sweet to be drugged
with poisons now compounded and
sold as liquors. To drink poison may
be social, but it costs too much for 'us
or fur any man of sense who loves
himself or others. Who of our readers
dare think of this matter, and act as
their better judgment shall dictate ?
The Duties of a Mother.
Sho should bo firm, gentle, kind;
always ready to attend to her child.
She should never laugh at him, at
what he does that is cunning—never
allow him to think of his looks, except
to be neat and clean in all his habits.
She should teach him to obeyh look,
to respect those older than himself.—
She should never make a command
without seeing that it is performed in
the right manner.
Never speak of a child's faults or
!bibles, or remarks before him; it is a
sure way to spoil a child.
Novor reprove a child while excited,
nor lot your voice be raised when cor
recting him. Strive to inspire love,
not dread—respect, not fear.
:reach your child to,wait upon him
self ; to put away 'a thing when done
with it. But do not forget that you
were once a child. The griefs of little
ones are fob often neglected—they are
great for them. Bbar patiently with
them, and never in any, way' rouse
their angel-ifit avoided,

alphabet of her affections is without
'any distinct end or beginning; .she

colors are for the while hightened and
the tone raised. Presently the vivid

cool grays lower the tone, and tho pas
sion of life will have died away. But„,
there will be no definite movement' at
which one could fairly say -that-levo' '
came or went. A girl who is nott'i
whispering in a lover's ear will always ',-
say frankly enough that. she never
knew what it was not to be in ldve.
There is one obvious' -'deduotietr
which she forgets'to draw—that there' -
never can be a time when, she can
know what it is to be,ia, love. Here
and there, of course, a woman may be ,
colder, or later in development,Or more'
self-conscious, and may divide by more
rigidly marked lines the phases of her -
life. But even then, if she be a we-
man at all, she can have no first love.
Feeling, with woman, has no past; as:;,
it has no future. Every phase of her - '
life bogiris.with an act of oblivion.

The world - of boyhood is- strictly.w;
world of boys. , Sisters, aunts, cousins,,, •
mothers, are mixed up in .the general
crowd of barbdriaua that stand 'with
out the playground. There 'are fee'
warmer or more poetic affections than:
the chivalrous friendship of school-fel--
lows; there is no more truer or more
genuine worship than a boy's worship
of
the hero of the scrimmage or the*
cricket-field. It is a fine world in it
self, but it is wonderfully narrow; and
restricted world. Not a girl may peep
over the pailings. Girls can't jump,.,
or fag out, or swarm up a tree; they
have nothing to 'talk about as boys
talk ; they never heard of that 'glori
ous swipe of Old Brown's; they are .
awful milk-sops; they cry and "tell,
mamma;" they are afraid of a gover
ness and a cow.. It is impossible to ,
conceive a creaturp more utterly con-.

fatal moment comes the revolution.-•
The limier of' contempt goes down
with a crash. The boy-world disap--
