ALLENTOWN, PA.; WEDNESDAY MORNING, MARCH 15 1871
HER LETTER.
=I
Pm am sitting alone by the tire, '
Pressed Jest as I came from the dimes,
In a robe even you would adailre—
It cost a cool thousand In France ;
I'm be dlemonded out of all reason,
My hair is done up in a cue;
In short, sir, "the belle of the season"
Is wasting an hour for you.
A dozen engagements I've broken ;
I left In the midst of a set;
Likewise a proposal, half spoken,
That waste—on the stairs—tor me yet.
They say he'll be rich when be grows up,
And then be adores me Indeed,
And you, sir, are turning your nose up,
Three thousand miles oil, no you read.
" And bow do I like my position 7"
" And what do I think of New York T"
"And now, in my higher ambition,
With whom do I waltz, flirt and talk 1"
And isn't it nice to have riches,
And diamonds and silks, and all that 7"
"And aren't It a change to the ditches
And tunnels of Poverty Flat 7"
Well, yes—if you saw us oat driving
Hach day in the park, four-in.hand—
If you saw poor dear mamma contriving
To look supernaturally grand—
If you saw papa's picture,
as taken
By Brady, and tinted at that,
You'd never suspect he sold bacon
And flour at Poverty Flat. •
And yet, Just this moment, when sitting
In the glare of the grand chandelier—
Is the bustle and glare beflttlog
The " line.t soiree of the year,"
In the midst of a gore de tlhambery,
And the hum of the smallest talk—
Somehow, Joe, I thought of the " Ferry,"
Aud the dance that we bai on " The Fork."
Of flarrlson's barn, with its muster
Of flags festooned over the walk;
Of the candles that shod their soft lustre
And tallow on head dresses and shawl;
Of the steps that wo took to one Addis ;
Of the dress of my queer vie a vim ;
And how I once went down the matila
With the man that shot Sandy McGee ;
Of the moon that was quietly sleeping
On the hill, when the time came to go;
Of the few baby peaks that were peeping
From under their bedclothes of snow ;
Of that ride—that to me was the rarest ;
Of—the something you said ut the gate ;
Ah. Joe, then I wasn't an heiress
To "the best paying lead In the State."
Well, well, it's all past; yet It's funny
To think, us I stood in the glare
Of fashion and beauty ar.d money,
That I should be thinkine, right there,
Of annul one who breasted high water,
And swam the North Fork, and all that,
Ju't to dance with old Foillnabee's daughter,
Thu Lily of Poverty Flat.
But goodness ! what normalise I'm writing!
(Mamma says my taste still is low),
Instead of my triumphs reciting,
Pin spooning on Joseph—heigh•ho!
And I'm to be " finished" by travel—
Whatever's the meaning of that
0, why did papa strike pay gravel
In drifting on Poverty Flat?
Gond night—here's the end of my paper
Good night—lf the longitude pleitee—
For maybe, while wasting my taper,
Your sun's climbing over the trees.
But know, if you haven't gut riches ,
And are poor, dearest Joe, and all that.
That my heart's somewhere there In the ditdhee,
And you've struck it—on Poverty Flat.
MRS. DOBBS' MISTAKE.
"I vow, if ever there's a boy to bo found
When I want anything done, Billy," called
out Mrs. Dobbs, going to the door and shad.
lug her eyes with her hand ; " Billy I"
" What, mother," answered a boy. He was
sitting under a peach tree, whittling, trying
to shape out an arrow.
" Come here."
The tone was imperative and the boy has
tened to his mother.
" Here, take this busket down to Mrs. Car
ter's ; and do you go quick and come right
straight back. Do you heart"
" Well, start then, and put away tnat sum
If you take that with you, you wont get back
to-day."
The boy laid down his stick, put his knife
in his pocket and, taking the basket from his
mother's hand, started slowly away,
" Move faster than that," she shouted, as
she entered the house.
" Don't speak so cross, Mary," said an old
lady who sat sewing carpet-rags and rocking
the cradle with her foot.
" I can't help it," answered the woman
" I've got to speak just so or he wont move a
step, he's so confounded lazy."
"If any one else should say he was lazy,
you'd be apt to resent it," said the old lady
in a quiet way.
" Billy Is smart enough when he's a mind
to be," said his mother, vigorously Miring up
the tire. " But he is so tantalizing sometimes.
Ile . always pokes along when he knows 'l'm
in a hurry. " Where's Harry 4"
"Here, mother," said a bright, handsome
boy, who stood by a table mending his kite.
" It's a wonder you're here when you're
wanted. Go get me some wood. Come
move," she added, as the boy untangled his
kite cord.
Ile started instantly, moving lively and
dodging as he passed his mother, for fear of a
blow. He sum brought in the wood.
"Now go•down to the tater patch and dig
a few titters for dioner," handing him a bas
ket. "Be quick."
" Mayn't I pick up my kite first ?" said the
boy.
" Yes, pick it up and take it out of my
way, or I'll stick it in the stove," said his
mother.
The boy gathered up the kite and started on
hie errand.
" Dear mo," said the woman, " it memo to
mo that everything goes contrary this morn
ing ; it's eleven o'clock and my dinner scarce
begun, and there's that baby waking up too."
" I'll take care of him, Mary," said tho old
lady. "Don't get so flurried, Mary, It don't
pay ; be a little patient."
" It's very easy for you, Aunt Beckey, to
talk about patience, but it's a different thing
for a woman to practice it who has five chil
dren to do for and the work besides. Seems
to me a woman that raises a family earns her
way. to heaven without any other prepara
tion," and Mrs. Dobbs rolled out the pie
crust, slapping the rolling-pin down with such
force that the six month old baby raised up In
his crib.
"If we could enter into the sheep-fold, by
virtue of our own Works, perhaps it would,"
said the old lady taking up the baby.
" I tell you it takes all the romance out our
lives to be always drudging," said Mrs.
Dobbs, as she flew to the stove with a pie in
each hand.
" There's many a one has a harder lot than
you do," said the old lady.
She was standing in the door -way with
Mrs. Dobbs' big, fat baby in her arms ; the
clear September sky reflecting Its serenity in
k r calm face. Surely one would say that
she had'passed over so far calmly ; but show
me one who has seen fifty years and not
weathered rough gales. There's many a

"There's many a one has sickly children
and a drunken father for 'em. That's some.
thing you know nothing about,Mary Dobbs."
Mrs. Dobbs was sifting morn flour into her
pan as her aunt said this. She turned around
and looked Aunt Beckey straight In the face,
and said—
"lf I had a drunken husband, he'd rue it
as much as I would."
"I reckon he would," said the old lady,
" But what would you do ?"
" What would Ido t Aunt Becky Roy

through tho kitchen, with young Dobbs in

"I don't see any reason to suppose that I

"I shouldn't wonder, Mary Dobbs," said
the old lady, In a nervous manner, If you
would have some Judgment sent on you for
not counting your blessings as they come."
"I should like to see them first," answered
Mrs. Dobbs, snappishly. "If a household of
young ones and a scant purse are blessings 1
can count them faster than I want to."
"Bo you ought, so you ought," repeated
the old lady. •" There's worse evils than a
household of healthy children and scanty
purses."
"I don't want to see them then," said Mrs.
Dobbs.
"Didn't I come back soon, mother?" It
was Billy's voice ; sounding so cheerily that
it might have served to drive all the dissatis•
faction out of the woman's heart, but she
would not suffer R. "Yes, for once," she
answered. "Run quick and fetch me some

The boy's countenance changed instantly,
and he walked slowly off, muttering to him

turned and said.
" Well bring it out doors, and I'll fix it for

,Beckey Reynolds was Mrs. Dobbs' maiden
aunt. She had a little home of her own, in
the nelgboring village, but spent the most of
her time among her relatives, , especially
with Mrs. Dobbs. She would come and re
main weeks at a time, and during her visit it
was almost Incredible how many jackets and
trowsera were made and repaired, to say
nothing of the carpet-rags and patch work
which were sewed up. Mrs. Dobbs had but
little time for sewing, for she had a large
family . to work for with no help except what
Grace, her oldest child and only daughter,
could render, out of school hours. Her hus
band, Robert Dobbs was, as Aunt Beckey
often declared, "just the best man in the
world." He never was known to complain
if the dinner was not ready when ho came in,
but always bad a pleasant word for the chil
dren and a "Can I help you, Mary ?"; for his
wife, who, It must be confessed, very often
answered In no amiable mood. But ho was
'always making excuses for her—Mary had so
much to do and so much to vex her that she
could not always bo pleasant, and then she
was a neat housekeeper, a good, careful wife
and a thorough worker. No man wore whiter
shirts than his were, and no one's children
around there looked cleaner than his, and lie
could overlook many faults in view of her
from under my feet."
"Hush, hush, Mary ; don't say that," said
Aunt Beckey, coming down the stairs, "you'll
be sorry some day that the're grow n up. They
are less trouble now than they'll ever be."
I can't see how that is," said 31 rs. Dobbs.
"They certainly are more trouble now than
they can be then."
" Now they are hand trouble; then they
may be heart trouble," said the old lady,
sadly, " You're always taking their part,
Aunt Beckey," said her niece, "You and
Robert never can see any faults about them.
If you both bad the bringing up of them you'd
ruin them."
" How so, Mary."
" You'd humor them to death."
"I don't think any body can accuse either
Robert or me of humoring the children," said
Aunt Beckey.
"I should like to know what you call it
then ?"
"I think Robert loves to pet his children
and so do I."
"There. I knew you must admit it," said
her niece, triumphantly.
"No; I do not admit It, Mary," said the I
old lady. "Petting them and humoring them
are two different things. Humoring them is
letting them have their own way In matters
where they are not capable of discerning
right from wrong. Petting them is fondling
them—coddling them : and that hurts no
child."
"Harry,' said Billy, as they stood on the
steps, after their mother had sent them out
of her way, "Harry, let's go down to Ben
Johnson's and play on the tavern steps."
" Well, lets," said Harry, eagerly. "Old
Ben likes to have us boys down there. They
say he throws pennies sonietimes, and the
boy that catches 'em can have 'em."
" Providing he spends them in his grog
shop for candies or anything„" said Billy.
"Mother's awful cross, slut she.?" he con-
tinued, as they jumped over the back fence.
"Yes said Harry." "I don't believe she likes
us like Phil Carter's mother does him. Bile
lets 'him play In the house as much as he
wants . to, and what do you think, Billy ?
, Rho says she'd rather Phil would have a Hansa

" Oh, Billy, don't say so."
"It's the truth, els. • Mother is all the time
finding fault. I've been trying all my life to
please her, and I can not do it, and I've about

looking up for the first time since she entered,
" Do you know that Harry drinks ?"
" Olt I Billy I" said Grace, covering her lace
with her hands.
"It's so," he continued. "Ha has never
been real drunk that I know of, but that will
soon follow, I'm afraid."
" I think that is one reason why mother is
so cress," said Grace.
" I don't know. I cannot see much differ

"She was not going to let Harry come in

" How so, Billy Y"
"Why, you see, site would never allow us

find them ; and Harry is very fond or frolic
and company."
Grace said nothing.
"I don't see how you can stand it, els," he
said after a pause, •
"I do get tired of being scolded and found

know It's mother."

SPECIAL LEGISLATION
Few persons have even a faint idea of the
amount of special legislation that Is put
through the Pennsylvania Legislature. Ex
tensively as the proceedings are published
they are read by very few, and Indeed few
newspapers can afilird the space, in these days
of news, to a daily f ill reportiif the proceed
ings of our law makers. In order to show
to our readers how . the Democratic Senate, for
Instance, redeems its pledges to the people In
regard to special legislation, we will merely
refer to the proceedings of that body for two
days, Thursday end Friday last. During a
period of not more than ten or twelve hours
the thirty-three gentlemen who compose the
Senate put thrno.th the legislation mill 'oe*
ha art , ed and eight special bale. Of this number
eighteen create new private corporations,
thirty mitt Five existing private corporations
additional powers, and tight exempt corpora
tions front taxation ; the balance were sundry
bills of private or special character. The to
days named, it may be said, were specially
good days fir private legislation, and t,ee
reader can thereioy form some idea of the
amount of consideration these bills must have
received at the hands of the Senators. Passing
bills at the rate of more than ten per hour, and
almost one per day for each Senator, is doing
tolerably well, and if these private bills are of
special importance to the corporations, for
whose benefit they are passed, then the Sena
tors must have had a very profitable time.
We have at no time endeavored, or wanted,
to defend the ro insylvania Legislature,
within the past few years, and have taken ,all
'proper occasions to denounce the shortcomings
of its members. In this we were always
heartily seconded by the Democratic press of
the State, who Insisted that the only panacea
for our legislative troubles Was to elect u Dem
()cretin melority. Well, the Senate has a
Democratic majority now, and instead of the
evil of special and corporation legislation hav
ing been abated it has multiplied in that body
four-fold, and its members are more corrupt
on an average than their predecessors. Our
Democratic friends will not he backward, we
trust, in condemning their party friends the
same as they have Republicans during the past
few years. There appears to be ono way by
which special legislation can be prevented,
and that is by constitutional reform. And
This ton, by the way, the Democratic members
of the Legislature almost to a man oppose.
We were promised great things in the way of
reform from this Democratic Senate, but
behold what are we receiving? Not a single
reform has been instituted in any particular;
net a single corrupt project . killed ; but on the f
contrarj, whi.re dozens of bills of a private
and speculative character were heretofore
passed by Republican Senates, the present
Democratic body in the saute period passes
hundreds. We arc not disposed to fault
finding, but we want to see the Democratic
press do its duly in the present emergency,
and expose flee short-coatings of their Dem
ocratic Senators. —Scranton Republican.
