Thi story it a tough one to tell, youngsters, but truo it is for all tliatl for my granilfuthcr, from whom I have it, used aKnys to soy when lie told it; "True must it be, my son, otherwise one oould not tell it so at all !" And this ia the way the story ran ; 'Twas on a pleasant Suuduy morn ing towards harvest time, just as the buckwheat blosscracd. f he sun had croue brichtlv up into heaven; the mourning wind swept warm over the stubble ; the larks sang in tne air . , i , ' . i l l 1 . the bees hum nied in the buckwheat; the good folk went in Sunday gear to church, and all creatures were happy and the hedge-hog also. The hedge-hog stood before thodoor with his nrmt folded, peeped out into tho morning nir, and chirruped a lit tle song to himself, just as good and just as bad as a hedge-hog is wont to sing on a pleasant bunday morning. And as he was singing to himself, in a cheerv little voice, nil at once it came uuto fijs head he might just as well, while his wife was washing and dross jng the children, take a little walk in to the field to see how his turnips were standing. Now the turnips were close to his house, and lie used to eat them with )) is family, so that he looked up on them as his own. No sooner said thun done. The hedge-hog shut (he house door to after him, and took his tvny to the field. Ho had not gone very fur from the house, and was abnut to turn, just by tho thorn bush which stands there before the field, near the turnip patch, when ho root the hure, who had gone out on a simi la r business, namely, to look after his cabbages. When the hedge hog caught sight or the liure, lie bid Inm u triendly 'good morning 1'' Rut the hare, who ill hit own way wus a mighty fine gen tleman,' and held hi head very high, answered nothing to tho hedgc-hog, putting on thereby a most scornful mcin, "how happens it, then, that thou art strolling about here in the field so earl in the moruingr "I'm taking a wulk," - said the hedire-hog. "Taking a walk," laughed the hare, "niethinks thou mightvst use those legs of thine for better things." The anser yped the hedge-hog hugely, for l;e could stand almost anything but lljs legs he did not like to have Spoken about, because t hey were crooked by nature. 1 ' ' 'Tliou thjijkest, pcihaps, said the hedge hog to tho hare, "thou nould'st do more with tlnueown legs? "That's what I do think." saiJ the hare. ; "That depends upon the trial,' quote the hedge-hog, "I bet that if we run a race together, I teat th.ehol low." . "That's quite laughable, Ihou with thy crooked legs, said the hnre, "hut Iv'e nothing against it if thou art so bent upon it. What's the bet? f "A golden louia d'or and a bottle of brandy ! said the hedge-hog. i "Done," said the hare, "fall in and then it may come olf at once. "Nbt, there's no such hurry," said the hedge-hog, "I'm still quite hungry ; I II go home and get a bit of break fust first ; within a half an hour I'll be here again on the spot." , With this the hedge-hog went his way, for the hare was also content. ' On tho way the hedge-hog thought to himself; "'M,0 hare trusts his long logs, but I'll fetch him fur all that; he's a fine geutleman to bo sure, but still he's on ly a stupid fellow, and pay he nhall !"' i Now when the hedge hog camo to his house, he said to his wife, "Wife, dress thyself in my gear, quickly; thou must, go with to thp field." i "What's ull this about?" said the wife. 'Iv'e bet the haro u golden louis d'or and a bottle of brandy that I beat him in a race, and thou must be by." "0 my Q'hJ. husband !' began the hedge-hog's wife to pry, "art thou fool ish? How canst thou wish to ri;fJ a race with the hare ?" "Hold thy mouth, wife," said the hedge-hog, "that's my business; dojt meddle with wea'.n fairs. March! dress thyself in iuy clothes, and then come along." What could the hcdge-hog's wife do? She. had t follow whether she would or no. When they were on the wuy together, the hedge-hog said to his wife: "Now listen to what I have to say. See'st thou, on tho long acre yonder will be run our race. The hare runs in one furrow and I in auother. and we bein t.o rnp frum up there. Now ,t,hc,.u hat nothing else to do than to Le ll(y plaon ifj the furrow, and when tho haj-e comes up on the other side thou must call out to him, I'm Jjere already !" With this they had reached the fjold j the hedge hog slipped his wife her jilacp nd went up the furrow. lYhen ho cot to ijip upper e'"' l'Q l;nv.o was uipeady there. .. . "(.'an c tlai t i" iiiid llie haro. m I .1:1; 'v.: JULY 2. "Yes, indeed I" said the hedge-hog. "To it then !" and. with that each ilaccd himself in the furrow, and the are counted one, two, three 1 and away he went like a storm-wind down the field, lint the hedge-hog ran about three stops, and then ducked down in the furrow and sat still. When the hare, on the full bound, came to tho lower end of the field, the hedge-hog s wue railed out to him, I'm hero already!" The hare started, and wondered not a little ; ho thought no otherwise-than that it was tho hedge hog himself that ran out to meet him, for, as every one knows, the hedgo-hog's wife looks just like her husband. - Rat tho hare thought : There's something wrong about all this! Another : race ! At it again ! And awny he went like a storm wind, so that his cars'lay flat on his head. Rut 'the hedgo-hog's wife stayed quiet ly in her place: When the hare came to the ripper ertd the hedgo-hog called out to him, I'm hero already." Rut the hare, beside himself with rage, cried, "Another race! At it ngnin !" , , . "I'm quite willing," nnswered the hedgo hog "just as often as thou likest." So the hare ran three and seventy times, and the hedge-hog held out to the very end with him. Every time the hare came either below or above, tho hedge-hog or bis wife said, "I'tq here already." Rut the four and seventieth time the hare came no more to the end In the middle of the field ho fell to the earth and lay dead upon the spot. So the hedge hog took the louia d'or and the bottle of brandy he had won, called his wife out of the furrow, and both went home together; and if they have not .died they are living still. So happened it that on the Ruxtehude heath the hedge-hog ran the haro to death, and since that time no hare has ever dreamed of running a race with a Ruxtehude hedge-hog. Rut the moral of this story is,' first, that no one, however high nnd mighty he may think himself, shall let it hap pen to him to make merry over an humble man, even if he be a hedge hog; nnd secondly, that it is advisa ble, when one marries, that he take a wifo nut of his own condition, apij who looks just like himself. ' lie therefore that is a hedge hog, niust took to it that his wife is also a ipg j and so forth. i The Alia Caliornian tells about a man who is burying his vices: "He looks like an undertaker; but its so cosy to stop these foolish practices, you know. The only trouble he has suffered in abstaining has been First, restlessness and a dosirc to chiw some thing; second, a soS-Lof mental thirst that seems unquenchable ; third, an insane idea of two things at once, and never feeling satinjei) or nt rpstj fourth, sleepless nights, unking up every fifteen minutps apd thinking each time that he has pyrrslept him-' self; fifth, n desire to tell ovcry ons he sees that he has quit smoking and "smiling" this is done to brace up his failing courage nnd commit him self and his pride to the work to self conquest ; sixth, he irnngines he used to smoke a whole box of cigars a day and brags of his former power; while insinuating his present fortitude; sev enth, he is now sufiVring from a tempt ing voice, which says: "If you take up smoking again, you, Co"lij rpstrajji yourself to the modcrato uo of the weed ; why should you persecute your self, and thereby acknowledge that you can't smoke in moderation ? Your will is certainly strong enough to resist aud excess in future!" He is in a tind stato of colic now. If he gives in, ho will be smoking ten ci garj a day within a week. Rut it's so easy for hiai to quit smoking, if he only mates up his mind to do so!" A few days since a fanner iu Madi son township quarrelled wjth his wife and left home. He returned in a short time aud the quarry! was ro sumcd and continued to such an ex tent that he ekpi.'esed a desire to be out of the world. His wife intimated that nothing would pleas her bettar and olfered to do her part if the rifle wus only leaded. lie went iulo the house, got the r.fla aud ammunatien aud loaded it in the presence of his wife, but was very careful when she was not looking to slip the ball down his sleeve. . After the gun had been capped he hauded it to her and went into the yard, she followed as far as the door, when she took deliberate aim and fired. The husbnud dropped iu the grass, to all appearg;i,ce dead, and laid there a short time before his vifecnmo t him. It did not take her long to discover tlijt he was"play iug possum," aud grasping an ax hnn die, she attacked him so fiercely that but for the ititcrfeience of some, of the children, she would hare crushed his skull.- It is needless to add that their will he it diyurie, Vy.

It docs not make any difference whether your name is Keyser or not ; if you want to buy a dog there is one for sale cheap on a canal-boat now braving the billows somewhere east of I rankfort. i ho captain of '.he boat is an Oswego man, and it is but one short week since he spliced his main-braee and let out the reefs in his driver, and got three sheets in the wind, and made all necessary preparations for a pros perous voyage. His wife sung "Write me a Letter, Love," in the cabin ; his children played on deck ; his steeds aired their frames on the Uw path, his hand was on the rudder, and his mate was recovering from his farewell attack of delerium' tremens in the forward cabin. The captain gazed ' proudly around him, and could think of noth ing necessary to complete his happi ness ; but his wife, wiser than he, thought they needed a dog a nice Newfoundland to play with the chil dren, fish them out when they fell in the canal, and watch the deck-hands when the captain was ofT after grocer ies. Coming through Utica yestorday, the captain bought a nice Newfound land dog. lie got him ut a bargain ; in fact, he got him for nothing, so to speak, because the man who owned the dog was not nround at the time the bargain was made.- The captain had the dog, but still he was not happy. The dog had n way of barking at pass ing crafts, end so drew upon lus cap tain's boat frequent showers of coal and wood, and he wquIi! divo down the steep steps into the uabiii. suddenly, and upset tha captain's wife. Once he lit on the table and spoiled a pound ol butter, aud he wus altogether too play ful. . Yesterday the captain, who is a pi ous man, tied up, aud put out his plank just east of this city, and started with his children to gc to the park and to observe the day after t'.ie manner of this vicinity. The dog started, and as soon ns he got on shore lis began to caper and wag his tnij, aud so wagged one of the children fat on his blessed back. The baby yelled, aud the captain made dime tender remarks as ha set it op its feet, and some other rpumrks as 1)P shopk )iis fist at the dog. The dog misunderstood the man, and came run ning buck, full of fun, and made a jump to lick his face. . He missed lo man, but he knocked tl)e other child j p to the canal, nnd the father, without waiting tp wake any remarks, jumped, in after it. The dog, being to tho wa ter born, knew just what to dornnd he went cavorting on to got a good head way, barking to himself at every jump, aud just as the man got to tho top of the water with his darling child, the dog took a flying leap of about twenty feet and struck on top of the man. Tho water that man spurted around was boiling hot with the oaths he sput tered with it, and his wife pranced around on tl,e feck of the post, and flung a pole to the od i))an, which the dog promptly draggoj aud pulled ashore, nnd that captain 'was nearly drowned before he trod the sod !sgai). The dog is an intelligent animal very intelligent, indeed ; and just as soon as he saw that inariuer'n face he knew that something was wrong ; so he slunk up the plunk on board. The captain gathered what loose granite aud lumber he could iu a hurried and earnest search, and marched up the plank, the grimmest figure of Noptune aver done iu Mohawk Valley mud. As soon ns ha got on board he opened a hot fire on the dog, and that sagacious bruto went yelping through the for ward hatch and struck the bunk, where the mate lay musing ebuut t)ia deyjl. Whon the mate saw the dog he thought the evil one had come for him him sure enough, aud he braced himself for the la3t fight, so that when the cap tain jumped down iu pursuit of the dog there was a mutual misunderstand ing all arouud. The captain's wife looked down and tried to expluiu, but there was a confused whirlpool of bunk boards, and hair, and bedding, aud legs aud arms, with ud occasional in fusion of dug, that it seemed idle to wast her Li'eath iu talking to such a circus. To-day the bo of that fated craft cuts the'avaters solemnly, aud at tho helm stands the wreck of that captain, fastened together with strips of plas ter, and smelling of liniment, and ever aud anon he surrenders the rudder to his wife, while he goes forward to ham mer a dejected dog which is for sale, or to listen to the ravings of tho mani ac confined under the forward hatch.

L , of Vermont, of the most inveterate jokers oj early times, in which he figured, anecdote is told of him, which was. tlx; An has never been related in print, and nev er can be perhaps with much effect; - but we will try it. One fall, as he was returniug from the Legislature, on horseback, as us- unl at that, day, he was hailed from a house by a garrulous old maid, who had often annoyed him with questions ' respecting public affairs. "Well, Governor," said she, coming out towards the road, ''what new laws have you passed at Moutpelicr, this '' time ?" ., "Well, one rather singular oiio among the rest," he replied. "Dew tell ! Now what is it, gover? , nor?" asked tho excited querist, ' "Why, that thn woman in each j town who has the smallest mouth,' shall be warranted a husband." ' "Whoy, whot?" said she, drawing '' her mouth to the smallest compass, "fthot a queer, curious lor that is." ; , "Yes, but we hava parsed another t that beats that ; the woman that has tho largest mouth is to have two bus bands." "Why, whart!" exclaimed the old maid, instantly relaxing her mouth,., and stretching it wider at every sylla- -ble, "what a remarkable law that is ; . when does it come in force, governor?" At this, the governor r,ut spurs id ' his horse, and vanished. A Frenchmap, an Englishman apij , . an Amerioan were conversing on tha industries of their several countries, , and were rather inclined to color their , descriptions. When the conversation , ; turned to the manufacture of ship haw sers, tho Frenchman said he would cap the climax by describing a rope ; which he had seen in his country. A piece twenty feet long 'was raised on ' end, where it stood straight as a pole. ' To which the Englishman remarked : .' "If you call that the cap of the climax, ' I will put a plumo on that cap. In ' Rirmingham, they made a rope so stiff .' I raised a piece on end twenty feet ; long and then climbed it." The Amer ican, too, had seen something of ropes. ' "Stranger," said he, "allow mo to color the lip of that plumo of yours. In old Connecticut, where I was born and had , my broughten up, I took twenty feet of rope made there, and set it up end- . wiss : then climbed the rope and , rpilpd t from the bottom as I wtntup; ! I then let go one end, which (lew straight up another twenty fact, and 1 , climbed that; I climbed forty feet on that twenty foot rope." There nro persons now living in Bon ion who remember old Rilly R., of whom it might be said he furnished an example of tho "ruling passion strong unto death.'' Wbcu, ycry ill, and friends wero expecting an early demise, his nephew and a man hired , for the occniiiii had butchered a steer which had been fatted; and when tho job was completed the uepheiv entered thp sick room, w)cre a fcy friends were assembled, when to tho. astonish ment of all the old man opened his eyes, and turning slightly, said, iu t ' full voice, drawiug nut the words : "What have you been dpipgif" "Killing the steer," was the reply,' "What did vou do with the hide?" ': "Left it it the barn ; going to sell it ' by-and-bv." "IiCt tne boys drag it around the yard a cmple of tiipcs; il will make it' weigh heavier." Aud tint good old mail was gathered uuto his fathers. ' Science and nature combined have, wrought a curious result in the mouth ' ofa Brooklyn geuileuian. While en. jjaged iu the piiHlime of friendly beg iug, he received a pat in the face ttljifil ' broke off one of his teeth. Of coyrP he was sorry for the accident, but con cluded it wus irreparable. Rut friends urged him to consult the dentist, and after a day pr tjyo ho followed thejr advice. The braken piece, a largilul ' was bouud its proper place, ant though th p4tient was forced to eat' cautiously aud talk lilllo for some time, the two parts finally united so perfectly that no flaw iu the tooth, could, be detected. r'ho other day, on train frout Laurence, tp Jjnstou, on reaching Weakfield, tho conductor shouted, '.'change cars,1' 1 1 A lady who wan sitting in one of the cars got up and went out. Shortly before reaching Roston the lady asked the conductor, if the train had nut yet reached Weak field. Tho conductor said . it had, aud qskpd bef if she did not hear him shout "cha'ip pars." Sho suid, ".Yes, I was in that cur," pointing to tho next car attached, "aud came into, thi one." Sho vent back ou thy uext train.
