feller, Ilerr Alexander, consequently I'll be
Her Jack Robinson.'
As Jack said this, he seated himself on a
milk-piggin, and commenced shuffling the
keerds, ' whon. a bouncing girl sixteen and
plump as a partridge entered the door, clad
in a homespun frock and forked lightning
apron her fairy feet in red morocco shoes,
and her cheeks painted with Pokeberry juice.
It was Sally Oliphant,
Ah, Jack, said she, slightly pouting, you
do keep teazin' me so to marry you,' when you
know you don't love me a mite nor a grain.'
I tell you I couldn't set and hear sich lan.

Don't love you! Why, Sally aes I, takin

for Betsy McCloud she don't know, enough

per.
'Is them your sentiments?' ses Sally. '
They jest ra,' ses I, (and I were goin' to
speak of marriago, but I was afeered I'd 'size
" her pile, and didn't.) Well after I'd gether-
ed op the keerds what I'd drapped, Sally and
I both, set down on a couple of chairs, and I
proposed a game.
What shall it be?' ses I."'
I don't know, ses Sally, 'anything.'

So I took the keerds and shuffled 'em up
like' it was a very difficult job, and he cut 'em
.sad linked mitey pleased.
Now Sally,' aa I, after I'd got every thing
r;ady. shfct your eyes and open your mouth,
and you'll soon diskiver the greatest trick ever
heard of or did I'
The dear gal done as I told her, and I must
say, I never seed sich a beautiful sight in my
life afore 'taint likely ever will again ! Her
mouth jest stood open, and her white teeth
glistened like a sullar full of candles. I gazed
at nerazacty one minit, thirteen secants,
and four licks I when I riz put? my arms
around her body, and glued mv lips to hers
a caution to woodpeckers ! Creation and the
deluge ! how she flopped and floundered jest
like a young alligator and immejitly after
wards a rumpus ensued
'Consarn you, Jack Robinson,' sod she, her
eyes snappin' fire, I'll larn you to bite,' and
with that she broke loose, took off her shoe,
and the way she did lather me over the head
and shoulders and ears, wasn't very refreshin
to say the least of it. But I want a goin' to
holler 'enough, I tell yon ; so I closed in
with her got the under holt and at it we
went so good a gal, so good s boy !
Now, Sally had the advantage of me kaze I
had on my Sunday suit her homespun 'flx-nps'
want wuth shucks and every time I'd attempt
to give her a bear hug, she'd grab mv cote-
tails, and try to rip 'em ofT. Keristopher!
how spunky she were.
Well, we fit and fit around that are room
like all possessed, for about four minits tip
pin' over the chairs and buckwheat cakes, and
nighly squashin' of the cat when I made a
pass at her head -gear, and broke a pair of new
Sunday side-combs and three strings of cut
glass beeds, which went to caperin' and dan
cin, and runninV races over the floor. That
nytde Sally more spunky agin, and the way
she did slap me over the mouth, and smeller
with the 'Babes in the Woods,' were a caution
to weasels ! Rip rip went my sattinet
trowsers; whiz whiz went her striped btiiii
bazine, and the next thing I knew I didn't
Know Xolhin I 5
By easin' up occasionally, when I'd hear
my cote-tails rip, she had flopped mc over the
milk-piggin, and were silently rcachin' for a
short-handled, fryin'-pau, to give me 'Hail Co
lumby,' when Jim (whom I hadn't tho't of
durin' the engagement) stuck his head out of
tho kihbard his mouth all daubed over with
preserves and yelled ;
f Hollo, here what's trumps ?'
Sally jumped like litenin,' drapped the fry-in'-pan
quicker'n a cow can flop her tail. '
What's trumps V ses she. Why, Jack is
trumps, the varmint, I've j sl turned him vji .'
But here comes tho darlin' now all rigged
out in silk and if you won't say anything
about Xip and Chuck,' I'll introduce you.
Conjugation ard Agreement.
In a lesson in parsing, the sentence, Man
courting in capacity of bliss," &c, the word
"courting" comes to a pert young miss of
fourteen to parse. She commenced hesita
tingly, but got along well enough until she
was to tell what it agreed with. Here she
stopped short. But as the teacher said, "Very
well, what doe conrtinj ?.rre' with 7" J;ikr:
blushed and held down her head.
iiien, uou i you Know wnat that agrees
with ?"
"Ye ye yes, sir!"
"Well, Ellen, why dont you parse that word?
What does it agree with ?"
Blushing still more and stammering, Ellen
says
"It a agrees with all tke girls, sir !"
African- Candor. 'Did you attend church
today, as I charged you?' inquired an old
planter to one of his slaves, as he returned to

idea on the subject.

"Yes."

of an extended circulation in a country where
