Judge Taney’s Negro Convert---The
: Bred Scott DeCisidn Applied. -
Slamming ihp lasi door of the first car and
opening ihafof Ihe second, the-Hgentlemanly
conductor” of the New York,train made his
appearance with his bow and smile, and
•‘tickets, gentlemen, if yoo please.”
'Seated in the front corner, surrounded by
her personal conveniences, such as a car.pet
bag, umbrella, big bundle, little bundle, a few
apples, and pieces of cake, was a colored
lady,'whose face —the hue of an inverted
saucepan, conlrasiing with her snow white
ivory and eye-balls, gave that pleasing Afri
can expression which is so often (he type of
humor and good nature.
“Ticket, ma’am,” said our conductor, with
a.civilily regardless of completion. . .
“I hasn't got any,” she replied, “but T’se
got money-, any way and she began to
fumble in her bag, then in the bundles,
searching those articles through in vain.
“Come, hurry up,” exclaimed her now im
patient friend, “I can’t wait all day.”
“Bress your soul, yer don’t think I find
everything in a minute, but I’se got money
some whar—must be indis yeah cawpet bag,”
and she fell in her pocket accordingly for the
key.
“Well, well, I’ll pass through, and when
I.gel back perhaps you will have it ready.”
“Yes, sartin,” said Dinah; but as he
passed along she reached out her umbrella,
and giving him a poke upon the shoulder,
asked, “ what you gwoin to charge on
freight 1”
“Freight 1 what do yen want to know that
for ?” ~
“ ’Cause I does i I’se civil, aint I?*’
“Well, five cents a fool ; there don’t bother
me any more, but find your money and he
went his way.
There seemed to be a peculiar drollery
about the lady’s eye-and mouth, as the one
rolled around in its black sea of flesh, and
the other opened to give vent to an involun
tary “yah I ha !” It was not long now before
she (bund her purse, and withdrew some coin,
which she kept jingling in her hand, and she
kept up her occasional cacchinations.
In due time the conductor returned for her
money,- and upan extending his itching palm,
was somewhat astonished at receiving the
precise sum of ten cents.
“What do you mean?” he exclaimed.
“The fare to New York is five dollars.”
“Yas, yas, [ knows dat, for while folks—
folks what am folks —bui I'sc nobody ; I’se
freight, I is. Yah, yah! poor rule as don’t
work bof ways ; five cents a foot, heah they
is !” said she, exlending a pair of enormous
ambulators for ihe inspection of the conductor
and us all.
The nonplussed functionary stood unde
termined for a moment among the shouts, of
passengers, until an idea of compromise oc
curred to him, as he exclaimed: “Well, if
you freight, lake yourself off into the
baggage car.” But even there Dinah
too much for him, as she replied, “Jus you
pick up your freight if you want to cair um
off?”
This settled the point. The conductor
vanished, and Dinah offered a pious ejacula
tion : “Lord bress dal ar’preme court, and
gin ’e credit for five dollar bill, any way !”
Bathing.
Once ja week is often enough for a decent
whim man lo wash himself alhover; and,
whether in summer or winter, that ought to
lie done with soap, warm water, and a hog’s
hair brush, in a room showing at least seventy
degrees Farenheit.
Ba'hs should be taken early in the morning,
fur it is then that the system possesses*'the
power of reaction in the highest degree.—
Any kind of bath is dangerous soon after a
meal, oc soon after fatiguing exercise. No
person should lake a bath at the close of the
day, unless by the advice of a family physi
cian; Many a man in attempting lo cheat
bis doctor out of a fee, has cheated himself
out of his life; ay, it is done every day.
The best, safest, cheapest and most univer
sally accessible mode of keeping the surface
of the body clean, besides the once a week
washing with the soap, warm water, and a
brush, is as follows :
Soon |s you get out of bed in the morning,
wash your face, hands, neck and breast; then
in the same basin of water, put your feet at
once, for about a minute, rubbing them brisk
ly all the time; then with the towel which
has been dampened by washing the face, feel,
etc., wipe the whole body well, fast and hard,
mouth shut, breast projecting. Let the whole
be done within five minutes.
At night, when you go to bed, or when
ever you gel out of bed during the night, or
when you find yourself wakeful or restless,
spend fora two to five minutes in rubbing
your whole body with your hands in every
direction. This has a tendenev to preserve
that softness and mobility of skin which is
essential to health, and which too frequent
washing will destroy.
That precautions are necessary, in connec
tion with the bath-room, is impressively sig
nified in the death of an American lady of
refinement and position, lately, after taking
a bath soon after dinner; of Surgeon Hume,
while alone, in a warm bath ; and of an emi
nent New Yorker, under similar circumstam
ces. all within a year.— Hall's Journal of
Health,
A blacksmith, who fancied himself sick,
would often tease a' neighboring physician to
give him relief. The physician knew that
he was perfectly well; but, unwilling to
offend-him, told him he should be careful of
his diet, and not eat anylhing heavy or windy.
The blacksmith went off satisfied ; but in re
volving in his own mind what kind of food
was heavy or windy, he returned to the doc
lor, who, having lost his temper with ills pa
tient, said, “Don t you know what things are
heavy and windy !” “No,” said the black
smith. “Why, then, I’ll tell you,” said the
doctor ; “your anvil is heavy and your bel
lows are windy ; don’t eat either of .these,
and you will do well.”
Must a man be mealy mouthed before he
can make flowery speeches? And should a
joke in a speech be accompanied by any ac
tion to make the,jest sure of its effect, or
should a piece of fun be jest enough of itself
to move to laughter without jest-ticle-ation
on the part of the speaker ?
