THE JOSH BILLINUS PAPERS.
The District Schoolmaster.
There is one man iu this basement
world, that I alwuz look upon with mixt
eelings ov pity and respect.
Pitty and respect, az a general mixtur,
don't mix well.
You will lind them both traveling
around among folks, but not often grow
ing on the same bush.
When they do hug each other they mean
sumthing.
Pitty, without respect, hain't got much
more oats in it than disgust haz.
I had rather a man would hit me on the
side of the head than tew pitty me.
But there is one man in this world to
whom 1 alwus take oph my hat, and re
main uncovered until he gets safely by,
and that is the distrikt schoolmaster.
IVhen I meet him I look upon him az a
martyr just returned from the stake, or on
hiz way there tew be cooked.
Ile leads a more lonesum and single
life than an old bachelor, and a more
anxious one than nn old maid.
lie is remarked just about as long and
affectionately az a gide board iz by a
traveling pack pedlar.
If he undertakes tew make hiz skollars
luv him, the chances are he will neglekt
their laming; and if he don't lick them
now a,ad then pretty often, they will soon
lick him.
The distrikt skoolmaster hain't not a
friend on the fiat side of earth. The boys
snow ball him during recess; the girls put
water in hiz hair die; and the skool com
mittee makes him work for half the money
a bartender gets, and board him around
the naborhood, where they give him rhy
coffee, sweetened with molasses tow drink,
and kodflsh bawls 3 tiznes a day for vittles.
And wlth aall thlksibftei b riefer beard
' ov a diStrikt skoolMatter, Swearing enny
thing louder than—condem it.
Don't talk tow me about this pashunce
ov anshunt Job. Job had pretty plenty
ov biles all over him, no doubt, but they
were all ov one breed.
Every yunc , one in a distrikt skool iz a
bile ov a different breed, and each one
needs a different kind ov poulties to get a
good head on them.
Adistrikt skoolmaster, who duz a square
job and takes his kodfish bowls reverent
ly, iz a better 41an to-day tow hav tieing
around loose than Solomon would be ar
rayed in all ov hiz glory.
Solomon wuz better at writing proverbs
and managing a larger family than he
would be tew navigate a distrikt skool
hous.
Enny man who haz kept a distrikt skool
for ten years, and boarded around the
naborhood, ought to be made a mager
gineral, and hav a penshun for the rest ov
hiz natral days, and a boss and waggin
tew do hiz going around in.
But az a general consequence, a dis
trikt skoolmaster hain't got any more
warm friends than an old blind ox hza.
He is just about as welkum as a tax
gatherer iz.
He is respekted a good deal az a man is
whom we owe a debt ov 50 dollars to and
don't want tew pay.
He goes through life on a back road, az
poor az a wood sled, and finally iz missed
—but what ever bekums ov his remains,
I karat tell.
Fortunately he iz not often a sensitive
man; if he was, he couldn't enny more
keep a distrikt skool than he could file a
kroes-cut saw.
'Whi iz it that these men and women
who pashuntly and with crazed brain
teach our remorseless brats the tejus
meaning ov the alphabet, who take the
fust welding heat on their destinys, who
have to lay the stepping atones and en
kurrage them tew mount upwards, who
have dun more hard and mean work than
enny klass on the footstool, who have
prayed over the reprobate, strengthened
the timid, restrained tle. outntgious, and
flattened the imbecile; who hf&V Jived on
kodflsh and vile co.*, and *WI been
heard to swear—whi is it that they are
treated like a vagrant fiddler, danced to
for a night, paid oph in the morning, and
eagerly forgotten?
I had rather burn a coal pit, or keep the
flys out ov a butcher's shop in the month
of August, than meddle with the skool
bizzness.
Tun friends of Dr. Paul Schoeppc (who
was convicted of the murder of Mary
Steinnecko by the Cumberland county
court) have made application to Governor
Geary for a pardon. Some distinguished
physicians, it is said, have examined the
testimony, and are convinced that the
prisoner should not be hung on the medi
cal and pharmaceutical testimony elicited
during the trial.
THE jewelry store of R. E. Shapley, in
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland county, was
broken into and robbed' of about 81,000
worth of jewelry, on Tuesday night of last
week. The safe was blown open with
powder, and although a young man slept
in a room over the store, and there were
dwellings all around it, the robbers were
apt heard.

We do not wish to inform you, reader that
Dr. Wonderful, or any other man, has discov
ered a remedy that cures Consumption, when
the lungs are half consumed, in short, will cure
all diseases whether of mind, body or estate,
make men live forever, and leave death to play
for want of work, and is designed to make our
sublunary sphere a blissful paradise to which
Heaven itself shall be but a side show. Yon
have heard enough of that kind of humbuggery,
and we do not wonder that you have by this
time become disgusted with it. But when I
tell you that Dr. Cage's Catarrh Remedy will
positively cure the worst cases of Catarrh, I only
assort that which thousands can testify to.
Try it and you will be convinced. I will pay
Rawest, for a case of Catarrh that I cannot
cure.
