Taking the Assessment
Tba following story we find in the last
West B.iion Rouge Sugar Planter:
When ilie immortal Col. was Assess
or of a nejuhboring parish he was wont to
have a fiiw’old time. One day as he |»as
assessingjOre valuables of thejßCC.upants of a
log cabin(|sjuHicd in t|w- Pi6e Woodsj h'ein
his usual urbane mariner “popped thequep
lions" to the old woman, while the old mao I
had gona’tfl procure some ’‘corn cob; oil"
wherrwithrto regale his guests!' r
“How horses, cattle, sheep.dbick
ens fir.., Inve you got my dear.'madari), and:
how they worth V’ ■. {
“Well, there’s three old horses —but they
ain’t wu-h a cent; three cows, but they’ve
been lost this Spring two years; nary sheepi
—’cept my old man and he ain’t wutb a
cuss; but ho allera votes the Dimrnycraek
ticket, snd buys his whiskey-by jug when be
can get it a heap cheaper by the bar’l—
The chickens was all stole the other nfgbl,
and hope to massy they’ll pizen the scamp
that hooked ’em." j
, “Very- satisfactory estimate of your valu
ables, particularly about (he old man—-but
here’s something worth assessing.” (point,
ing to a dirty little urchin about five years
old, that was clinging to his old mother’s
g own,) “how much do you value that little
nigger at ?’’
“Little nigger! sakes alive! you infernal
old,.rascal, do you dare to call my child a
auger? Clear out o’here, or I’ll knock the
daylights out of you in a minnil. Omy! to
Hiiiik I should live to be forty odd next clads
meeting and to hear my own child called a
nigger by such a fellow as you !’’
By this time the old woman had worked
herself up to an ungovernable fury, raising
tier voice" to a shrill yell, ’she called out to
tlte old man, to come quick and “chaw the
Colonel up" and we are compelled by an in
ward regard for veracity to record that the
Colonel’s bay made six miles of bad road in
belter time (ban Lecomle ever did in his
palmiest days. A deputy was sent to do the
unfinished business in the sltlement, and the
Colonel's remembrance of that day’s work
has “hoisted’’ him into another extreme,
for the last and biggest fight he was in was
occasioned by his entering upon his record
when taking the last census six little
mulaitocs as the children of one of his con
stituent;-.
Sweet Words, the Peasm op Life.—
Would ii not please you to pick up airings of
pearls, drops of gold, diamonds, and precious
stones, ns you pass along the streets? It
would make you feel happy for a month to
come. Such happiness you can give to oth
ers. How, do you ask 1 By dropping pre
cious sweet words ns you pass along. These
are true pearls and 'precious stones, which
can never be lost; of which none can de
prive ypu.
Speak to that orphan child ; see the dia
mond drons irom her cheeks. Take (he
hand of the friendless boy ; bright pearlp
flash in his eyes. Smile on the sad and de
jecled ; a joy suffuses his cheek more brilliant
than the most precious stones, By ijie way
aide, arhid lhe city's din, and at’the fire-side
of itie poor, drop words and smiles lo cheer
and bless.
You will feel happier when resling on
yobf pillow nt the close of tn&day,.' than if
yofi had picked up a-ecore of perishing jewel*.
The taller fade and crumble; the former
grow brighter with oge, and promise happier
reflections forever
Be Equal to thb Crisis.-—When a cri
sis befalls you, and the emergency requires
moral courage to meet it, be equal to tbe*fe
quiremema of the moment, and rise superior
to the obstacles m your path. The univer
sal testimony of men, whose experience ex
actly coincides with yours, furnishes the con
soling reflection that difficulties may be ended
by opposition.
There is no blessing equal to the stout
heart. The magnitude of danger needs noth
ing more than a greater effort than ever at
your hands. If you are recreant in the hour
of trial, you are the worst of recreants, and
deserve no compassion. Be not dismayed
or unmanned when you hear with fear and
dread, is pregnant with blessing, and the
irown, whose sternness makes you shudder
and tremble, will ere long, be succeeded by a
smile of bewitching sweetness and benignity.
Then be strong and manly, oppose equal
force to open difficulties, keep a firm reliance
on your ability to overcome the obstacles ;
and trust in Providence.
> The Drunkard's Brain,—Hyni, by far
the- greatest anatortiisi of the age, used to
siy that he could distinguished, in the dark
est room, by one stroke of the scalpel, the
inebriate from that of the person who had
Jiyed soberly. Now and then he would con
gratulate his class upon the possession of a
drunkard's brain, admirably fitted, from its
hardness and more .complete preservation,
for. the purpose of demonstration. When
the anatomist wishes, to preserve a human
brain for any lengifr oTtrme, he effects his
p.qrpo?P,by keeping that object io a vessel of
alcohol. From a soft, pulpy substance, io
then becomes comparatively hard.
Btit the inebriate, anticipating the anato
rnfst, begins the indurating process before
dwiji—begins it while the brain remains the
consecrated temple of the soul, while its deb
ieate and gossamer tissues still throb wi'h
tha pulses of beavenborn life. Strange in
fatuation thus to desecrate the god-likej—
terrible enchantment that dries up all the
tender humanities and sweet charities of life,
.leaving only a brain of lead and a heart of
atone! •
Beautiful and True.-—Education doe*
not commence with thp alphabet. It begins
with a motberVlook—a father’s smile of ap
’prpbauon.or sign of reproof—with a sister’s
•gentle pressure of (he band, or a brother’s
noble act of forbearance —with a handful of
flowers in the green, daisied meadows—with
bird-neats admired but noL touched—with
creeping ants and almost imperceptible em
mets—with humming bees and glass beehives
•pleasant walks in,shady lanes,.and with
• thoughts directed in aweet and kindly totteb,
•tld' words to’ mature acts of benevolence; to
deeds of viftue and to the source of all good
—to Ood himself.

Mothers?—Fathers, what say you ?
Snoring,—Old Hicks was an awful snor
er. He could be heard farther than a black
smith’s forge ; but his wife became so'accus
tomed to it that it soothed her to repose.
They were a domestic couple who never had
slept apart for many years. At length the
old man was required to attend Court some
distance from home. The first night of his
absence she never slept a wink; she missed
the snoring. The second night passed away
in the same manner, without sleep.. She was
gelling in a bad way, and probably would
have died had it not been for the ingenuity
of the servant girt. She took a coffee mill
into her mistress's chamber and ground her
to sleep at once.
Tub Right Place to Bur Gooes.—
The place to buy goods cheap, is where they
advertise. Who ever heard of a skinflint
merchant making s display by advertising ?-
On the contrary, if you see a man advertis
ing his goods end wares liberally, go to him
and you will find a character to correspond
a whole-souled man, whose, motto is “ live
and lei live.”
These are not ihe only right kind of tra
ders to buy of, but'they arelhe kind of men
who should be sustained in community,—■
They are the ones who have contributed so
much lo make the country what ii is; give
us the reputation of being a liberal and en
terprising people.
A lady, lately visiting New York city,
saiV one day on the sidewalk a ragged, cold
and hungry little girl, gazing wishfully at
some cnke in a shop window. She stooped
and taking the little one by the hand, led her
into the store, though she was aware that
bread might be belter for the child than cake,
yet desiring to gratify the shivering and for
lorn one, she bought and gave her the cake
she wanted. She then took her to another
place, where she procured her a shhwl and
other articles of comfort. The grateful little
creature looked the lady up full in the face,
and with artless simplicity said, “Are you
God's Wife ?”— Exchange.
Frdit Trees.—FruU growers should be
partcularly earful this year in making pur
chase of peach, plum, damson, pear and ap
pricot trees, as the past winter has ireated
these varieties very harshly, killing the bud,
if not the stalk of the tree. An easjt mode
of testing whether a tree has vitality in ii pt
not, is by cutting off a twig near the bud.
If the wood thus exposed presents a dark
brown color, and snaps as if half seasoned,
the tree il not dead, is not worth planting.
If, on the other hand, the wood is of a yel
lowish green color, the tree will, ten chances
to one, live and bear fruit.
Beecher says, there is a great deal more
Gospel to the poor in a loaf of bread, and a
cheerful word of sympathy, than a dozen dry
sermons.
