Till: J I' DUE'S KTORT Tbe Jude knocked the asbea from biii ciar, and rose with aa emphatic "hem I" All the others drew a long breath, aod drought their cbaiia down from . their tilted positions. Graham had been tellinrf a story to while away tbe Ions; hours ot the Christmas night, and Grabam was a magnificent story-teller. "Your turn, Judge," Eaid Graham, with a flight laugh, tbe flush slowly dyiofr out rf bis face. "lical Graham's if you can," said Fenner, rubbing bis bauds together with great glee. "You don't know tbe Judge, Fen ner," said Williams. "He used to equal Mr. Midshipman Easy in tbe number of his adventure?, and bis grace in relating them." Tbe young lawyer, whose soubri quet of "Judge" bad been bestowed upon bim in tbe early days of col lege life from his supe-annuated grav ity, aod bis sententious way of de ciding questions tbat bored bim, drew back a cbair w ith a flourish, and then pusbi'd it towards tbe fire, aid sat djwn. "I'll tell you what it i. boyf, you needn't think I'm going to be beat by Grabam. I have a story to tell yon, wbicb is just as good as his, but then it may loose something in the telling. Since we parted five years ago, I bave interviewed Dlackstone, Chitty, and others 'of that like,' and a good deal of tbe romauoe has faded out in '.bat way, you perceive. ISut tben as we agreed to meet in live years and compare experience, it was merely to bave something to tell, so I did my best to bave an adventure. Heuil "Perhaps you all remember what my college days were. You do J Uumpa! Tben it will save me tbe trouble of telling you, though 1 Lave g'.uddied up a Cue bit of pathos about tbem. However, it don t matter much; let it go now. One fact, though, I must speak of, and tbat is the financial condition of your orator iu ibee college days. I never su'd aoyibidg about it.tbeo, because 1 was a deal Utj proud ; but to tell you toe truth, bov?. it required some screw- intr. and some pretty close calcula tions, to make my allowance cover for very modest wants. 1 remember I used to be a little envious of Fen ner and Grabam, wbea I saw tbem scattering raoner round, wun suco a lavish band, and I, with my fine nat urabililiep, good looks, and extraordi nary stock f common sense," and tbe Judge straightened bimseir oacK, and laughed in but rare genial way, without finishing tbe sentence. "However, to pass o-er that, and come to tbe lime when we left col lege, with young honors upon as. Weren't we proud of ; our diplomas, though ? Boys, I wautyou to tell me truly, whether you took your sheep skin out of its ca.-e, after tbe first six mobtbs!"' , "Havo't seen mine since two weeks af:er tbe commencement," murmured Grabam. "Don't know where mine is," said Fenoer, and tbe other intimated that tbeir experience entirely coincided itb bis. "That's just it, boys," pursued tbe Judge. "I tried to get a situation wilt tbat imposing document, but af ter a good many trials, aud as many ignominious failures, 1 put the pious fraud away, and left off being a col lege graduate. 1 went in on my mer its then, resolved to win or perish in tbe attempt. It seemed as if I would! ESTAB I, I S1J ED, 18U7 PA.. WEDNESDAY. have to accept tbe later alternate. 1 bad neither money nor friend, and there were plenty of yonng men with wealth and position, ready to fill up 'every vacancy. " was pretty bard np for money, you know, and it was f. bout tbis time tbat I fell in with Steve Ranald, who wis in about the same condition irt respect to funds. I believe none of yoo ever saw bim, did you? I -wish you bad known bim. He w as balf Freocb.and tbat accounts fur some peculiar traits in bis charac ter. A magnificent looking fellow, with a certain kind of facination about bim, tbat ypu could not rcsut. I could not, I know. Ho led me into all kiudsof scrape, that 1 never would have thought ol going into, and it was impoeisiUlo to blame bim. He had such a merry, light-hearted way with bim, when be chose, tbat be took me quite by storm. "Well, as I said, our condition was about tbe same, financially, so we joined together, aad rented a room in a very respectable neighborhood. We kept bscbelor'f Da" there very comfortably, for a it bile, while I bunt ed employment, and be compounded wooderful French dishes, out of noth ing, j "I suppose in my search of em ployment, I bad " started out with some vague idea of becoming minis ter to some foreign; power, or pest-master-general, or something of tbat kind. My aspirations after declining for several weeks, like decreasing se ries of geometrical progressions tbe brie tioir of my .ioybood at last pointed to an ordinary clerkship ia sumo mercantile establishment as hap piness beyond comparison. Even here I was doomed to disappointment, aod when 1 gave up tbe struggle, had spent my last dollar that morning. All day I bad walked through the streets likeone lost My limbs were acbing w'th tbe unaccustomed exercise, and my brain was in a whirl. I knew one man wbom my father bad befriended vears ago, in tbe days of bis prosperity when the man wasia great distress. Since tbtn fortune's wheel, bad turn ed, and my father bad died in pover ty while Mr. Laclede, was one of tbe money kings of the city. Can you understand wby I 'would not go to bim, until every other r. source bad failed 7 Even tben I went slowly and very reluctantly. I stood before tbe door in the gaslight, watching tbe crowd, as tbey came and went, thinking some very bitter things, it may be. Bat at last I went in, knowiug that tbey would soon close up for the oigbt, and asked to speak with Mr. Lacled". "He received me in bis piivate of fice, where be was looking over and Giiug papers ; and. he-left me standing near tbe door, and went on with bis work, after looking up and saying, 'Good evening.' There was some thing repulsive about bim I thought, and 1 determined to try for tbe situa ation first, without saying anything about who I was. S I stated my business very concisely, ne raised bis spectacles on his glistening fore head, referred from me to the paper he bi-i l in bis band, aud from tbe pa per to me, and then said: " 1 oua-mun, thre is no vacancy, aud evcu if there were, for tbe past two weeks there bave been on an average, twenty applications like this per diem. You had better ap ply somewhere else." "My band was on tbe door-knob, but I turned around and looked at bim. Without knowiog clearly how tbe words came, I said slowly : " 'I am Kenneth Lane, sir. My father helped you once, in tbe great est extremity of your life.' "His face flushed a little, and he interrupted testily: "'Ah, certainly! Uut you see, Mr. Kenneth Lane, I can't make sit uations.' "I do not know wbut be was go ing to say. I sbut tbe door, and passed through the long rooms, pass ed smiling clerks, who no doubt read my errand and its iailure in my face, aod out into tbe street. 1 do not re' member anything else very distinctly, except tbat 1 seemed plunged aud denly into an alley, and from tbat, into all kinds of low thoroughfares desperate p!ace9 tbat I would bave shrank from at any time. J was con scious of rushing along at times, and tben blindiy groping my way, drag King myself along slowly and painful ly, was in one of those latter moods, wncn I was seized ana brongbt to a bait, by two ill-favored villains, who proposed to go through my pockets in gallant style. Apparently disgust ed with the general emptiness of those receptacles, they turned around to the light. " jJrunK saia one ot tnem, "or else a fool, I didn't know wbicb.' " 'Come, my covey,' said the other, 'you are innocent, yon are, and you'd better skin ooto' this afore you get a tap on tbe bead.' : 'Tt was gloomy enoogh, boys, I can tell you The cense of failure vas a horrible thing, and it had full possession of me tben. I was young and Dad luted myself tor some of tbe higher, nobler work of life, jqst tq be thrust back, and tola there were no vacancies. Right tben and there, I felt tbat there, were powers in my brain wbicb could wii roe a name and place among men,' if they were only given tbe opportunity. "Ob, boys, there was the bitterest of it?

Tbe first tbat passed was a man whose face I could not see. I bad ray finger on the trigger. I was just ready to spring out upon him, when suddenly well, Grabam, be begr.n whistling tbat same little love tune yon used to be always whistling, singing and playing at college. That', made me erow very weak, and I ! coulda't move. It brought back all you fellows so distinctly. By tbe way, I wonder if he will ever kaow bow naar that little love tune saved bis life ? Talk about the value of little things, tbe stars might all have fallen from tbeir spheres, and never affected me as did tbe few simple bars whistled by tbe traveler along the moonlit road. - "I recovered myself after a little or rather lost myself again to wonder at my weakness ; and then, just as L bad straightened myself up and taken a new bold on my resolution to do something desperate, 1 beard tbe rattle of carriage wheels far away on the moonlit roau. Instantly I was on the alert, with every faculty quickened, I raised my pistol and ex amined the lock, wouuering at the same time wbether my sentence would be banging or transportation, or imprisonment for life, witb hard labor. Before I had settled tbe mat ter in my own mind, the carriage bad cojae nearer. TLe wheels were rat tling furiously. Who could it be, driving at such break-neck speed ? Tben suddenly it came in sight, and at the same moment I beard tbe ter rific screams of women, saw that the driver was missing from his place, and that tbe horses were running away. in aa instant, forgetting every thing else at those cries of distress, I dropped my pistol and sprang into the road. Just for a moment tbe startled horsc3 paused, and ia that moment I seized the bits. Tben commenced a furious battle with the frantic, plunging steeds. I was thrown down, trampled upon, but I clung to tbem with despairing ener gy. Ten minutes ago, my only thought bad been to take Hie, my only desire wai to save it now. So it was, I clung to tbe horses and kept them there until I felt stronger hands assisting me, and then the wild struggle, the broad fields, and tbe white' road all faded away, and left nothing but darkness and sileuce.

If I bad come back to lire in our own room, Ranald's and mine, I might have concluded tbat tbe wbole affair had been a horrible dream, and so said nothing more aboiu it. But it certainly was sur prising to find myself in a strange room, on a strange bed, with a rosy old gentleman leaning over me on the one aide, and a rosy old lady on the other, tbeir faces expressing tbe most lively solicitude, while a grave med ical gentleman first felt my pulse, and then rubbed Lis hands ttigetber witb great satisfaction.

Then I was waiting be hind the bedjje, with my finger upon tbe trigger of tbe pistol listening to tbe rattling of carriage wheels far away oa tbe road, and the next mo ment I was crying tbat there were women inside, and that I must save tbem ; aud I would strive to rise and fall back exhausted, only to begin all over again.

Men are wanted. So tbey are. But boys are wanted honest, man ly, noble boyB. Such boys will make tbe desired men. Some one has de clared, and truly, that these boys should possess ten points, which arc thus given: I. Honest. 2. Intelli gent. 3. Active. 4. Industrious. 5. Obedient. 6. Steady. 7. Oblig ing. 8. Polite. 9. Seat. 10. Truthful. One thousand first-rate places are open for 1,000 boys who come up to tbe standard. Each boy can suit his taste as to the kind of business be would prefer. . Tbe places are ready ia every kind of occupation. Many of them are al ready filled by boys who lack some most important points, but tbey will soon be vacant, because the boys have been poisoned by reading bad books sucb as tbey would not dare show tbeir fathers, and would be ashamed to have tbeir mothers see. Tie impure thoughts suggested by tbese books w ill lead to vicious acts, the boys will be ruined, and tbeir places filled. Who will be ready for all tbese vacancies? Distinguished lawyers, useful ministers, skillful physicians, successful merchants, must all soon leave tbeir places for somebody else to fill. One by one tbey are removed by deatb. Mind your ten points, boys ; they will pre paro you to step into vacancies in tbe front rank. Every man who is worthy to employ a boy, is looking for vou if vou bave tbe points. lo not fear that, you will be overlooked. A young person having tbese quali ties will sbine as plainly as a star at night. Blackbird.. One day last season, as tbe barley in my fields was ripening, the black birds began to gather about it, my farmer began to aotbematize them as thieves and robbers feeding upon what tbey did not sow. "Why tbey come," said be, "ia clouds from Xau sbon, and all about us." .Notwith standing, I told bim 1 was satisfied tbat tbey did more good tbau barm, aod tbat they were welcome to their share. Tbe harvest began and as tbe mowers reached the middle of tbe field tbey found tbe stalls of tbe grain very much striped and cut op by tbe army worm. When the bar ley was down they began to march out of the field in a compact stream through the barway into the next one, and here we saw clearly what the blackbirds were after. Tbey pounced upon tbem aad devoured them by thousands, very materially lessening tbeir numbers. Tbe worms were jo numerous tbat tbey could not destroy tbem all, but tbey mate rially lessened tbem and tbeir power of mischief. AU honor, then to the blackbirds, wh'ch are usually count ed mischievous, and destroyed by farmers like vermin. Tbese army worms returned after an interv al of ten years. lloston Advertiser.

Tbe power of a Stale to appoit.1 Electors is conferred by tbe Constitution of tbe United States, aod not by the Constitution of tbe Slate; and the exercise of it cannol be controlled by tbe State Constitu tion. Tbe legislature may repeal a', any time a law tbat ba been pass ed providing for tbe election of Electors by tbe people. Ttere i no proviaion made in the Coostiluiioo by wbicb tbe election of Elector can be contested. There is no Stats save Lsuisiana wbicb makes any provis os for contesting tbe election of Electors.

Tb idea of electing tbem by tb people made alow prog ress, and ia lSol South Carolina con tinued to choose her Electors by tbe State Legislature. Wbile this was the theory of onr fathers, it has been completely over thrown ia practice, and our safety consists in having it completely over tbe theory and thrown. bile purpose of tbe Electoral Colleg has been overthrown and destroyed, still it is left full of danger. True democra cy consists in a Government for the people and by the people, ia which every man shall be allowed to vote for the candidate tbat meets his appro bation, and this is our safety. Tbe great body of tbe American people cannot be corrupted. No amendment can be made to tbe Constitution ex cept after an absolute demonstration of tbe necessity of it. Those who are fond of change ia this country are not the body of tbe people, but those who assume to bo above tbe people. Tbe amendment proposed is to abolish the Electoral College, and bring tbe elec tion of the President, right borne to tbe people. Our present form ot elec tion denies our nationality. It is a vote by tbe State, and not by tbe peo ple. Wbeo parties are nearly evenly divided, a successful fraud settles tbe result. Fraud in large cities is one of tbe great dangers ot the eonntry. Tbe Electoral College has never represented tbe sentiment and choice of tbe people. It has never come within 10 per cent, of it I would prefer to elect tbe President by one great vote of tbe people, instead of being separated by State lines, and tbe man getting tbe most votes in tbe United States should be President Tbe present Electoral system is a complex one, we minority ouen con- trolling tbe majority.

"Dead! No; he is much better." Whereupon tbe doctor proceeded up Btairs to obtain solution to the miracle. "Why," said the convalescent, "I was consumed witb thirst, and 1 drank a pailful of the juice cf pickled cabbage." "Wonderful," qaoth tbe doctor. And out came tbe tablets, on wbicb tbe physician mad this inscription, "Cured of typbns fever, Mcbemed Agba, an upholsterer, by drinking a pailful of pickled cabbage juice." Soon after, tbe doctor was called to another patient, a yagblikgee, or dealer in embroidered handkerchiefs, suffering from tbe same malady. lie fortwith prescribed "a pailful of pick led cabbage juice." Un calling toe next day to con gratulate his patient oa his recovery, was astonished to be told tbe man was dead. Tbe oriental Aitcuea- pius, ia his bewilderment at tb phenomena, came to th safe conclu sion, and duly noted it in bis memo randa tbat "although hi cases of ty phus fever pickled cabbage juic is aa efficient remedy, it is not. however, to be used unless tbe patient be by profession an upholsterer.
