An "Attachment."
We hare heard a good story, of which an
Alabama Sheriff was the hero. Court, was in
esaion, and amid the multiplicity of business
which crowded npon him at term time, he stop
ped at the door of a beautiful widow, on the
sunny side of thirty, who, by the way, had of
ten bestowed melting glances upon the said
Sheriff. He was admitted, and the widow ap
peared. The confusion and delight which the
arrival of her visitor occasioned, set off to
greater advantage than usual, the captivating
charms of the widow M. Her cheeks bore the
beautiful blended tints of the apple blossom ;
her lips resembled the rose buds upon which
the morning dew yet lingered, and her eyes
were like the quivers of Cupid, the glances of
love and tenderness with which they were fill
ed resembled the arrows that only wanted a
beau (pardon the pun,) to do full execution.
After a few common-place remarks :
"Madam," said the matter-of-fact Sheriff" I
have an attachment for you."
A deeper blush than usual mantled the cheek
of the fair widow. The downcast eyes, whose
glances were entered npon her beautiful foot,
which, half concealed by her flowing drapery,
gently patted the floor ; she with equal candor
replied :
"Sir, the attachment is reciprocal."
For sometime the Sheriff maintained an as
tonished silence ; at length he said :
"Madam will you proceed to court ?"
"Proceed to court,' replied the lady with a
merry laugh ; then shaking her head she said :
"No, sir ! though this is leap year, I will not
take advantage of the liscence granted to my ,
tax ; and, therefore, I greatly prefer that you
should proceed to court."
"But, madam, the justice is waiting."
"Let him wait, I am not disposed to hurry
matters in such an unbecoming manner ; and,
beside sir, when the ceremony is performed, I
wish you to understand that I greatly prefer a
minister to a justice of the peace."
A light dawned upon the Sheriff's brain
Madam," said he, rising from his chair with
solemn diffnity, "there is a great mistake
here ; my language has been misunderstood ;
the attachment of which I speak was issued
from the office of Squire C, and commands
me to bring you instantly before him, to ans
wer a contempt of Court, in disobeying a sub
poena in the case of Smith vs. Jonea !"
We drop the curtain.
Rowed up Salt River.
Salt Biver, where it debouches into the Ohio
River, is not more than fifty or sixty yards in
breadth, but very deep. It is never fordable,
even in the dryest seasons ; and, being naviga
ble for fourteen miles above its mouth, has not
been bridged at that point. We descended
its steep and difficult banks, embarked our car
riages upon a flat ferry boat, and were convey
ed across.
The view, looking up the river, was very
beautiful. Tall elms and sycamores clothed
the banks, dropping their boughs almost to the
water, and forming a vista of foliage through
which the stream curved out of sight between
wooden hills. I longed to be rowed up it.
While on the spot I took occasion to inquire
the derivation of the slang political phrase,
"Rowed up Salt River," and succeeded in dis
covering it. Formerly, there were extensive
salt works on the river, a short distance from
its mouth.
The laborers employed m them were a set
of athletic, belligerant fellows, who soon be
came noted, far and wide, for their achieve
ments in the pugilistic line. Hence it become
a cenimon thing among the boatmen on the
Ohio, when one of their number was refracto
ry, to say to him, "We'll row you up Salt
River," where, of course, the bully salt men
would have the handling of him. By a aatu
ral figure of speech, the exprcssisn was appli
ed to political candidates, first, I believe, in
the Presidential campaign of 1840 Bayard
Taylor.

A Thick Headed Husbind.
A pious old lady who was too unwell to at
tend to meeting used to send her thick head
ed husband to church, to find out the text the
the preacher selected as the foundation of his
discourse. The poor dunce was rarely fortu
nate enough to remember the words of the
of the text, or even the chapter and verse
where they could be found ; but one Sabbath
he ran home in hot haste, and with a smirk of
self-satisfaction on his face informed his wife
that he could repeat every word without mis
sing a syllable. The words were as follows :
"An angel came down from Heaven and took
a live coal from the alter."
"Well, let us have the teat," remarked the
good lady.
'Know every word," replied the husband.
"I am anxious to hear it," continued the
wife.
"They are nice words," observed the hus
band. "I am glad your memory is improving, but
don't keep me in suspense, my dear."
"Just get your big Bible, and I will say the
words, for I know them by heart. Why 1 said
them a hundred times on my way home."
"Well now, let's hear them."
"Ahem," said the husband clearing out his
throat. "An ingen came down from New 11a
ven and took a live colt by the tail and jrked
him out of the halter."
AasKXLTcsK in South Carolina. Accor
ding to the address issued by the Agricultural
Convention, recently held at Columbia, S. C,
agriculture is in a very backward condition
in that state. We quote :
"Your committee would earnestly bring to
the attention of this Convention the mournful
fact that the interest heretofore taken by our
citizens in agricultural improvement has be
come stationary ; that our old fields are en
larging, our homesteads have been decreasing
fearfully in numbers, and our energetic sons
are annually seeking the rich and fertile lauds
of the southwest, upon which they imagine
that treble the amount of profits can be made
upon capital than upon our own soils. Ivor
is this all. We are not only losing some of
our most wealthy, energetic and useful citi
zens to supply the bone and sinew of other
states, but we are losing our dure population,
which is the true wealth of the state. . Our
stocks of bogs, horses, mules and cattle are
diminishing in size, and decreasing in number,
and our purses are being strained for the last
cent to supply their places Irom the North
Western States.
QyThe Puritans of old were as vehement in
their expressions of execration as they were
remarkable for their assumed intimacy with
heaven. Ebenezer Erskine, pastor ol the Tron
Church at Edinburg, (Scotland,) in his pray
er for vengeance upon Louis XIV., is made
to go it thus : "Lord sink him, confoond him
and damn him ; use him, Lord, as ye did Sen
acherib of old ; tak an' shake him over the
pit o' hell! butforgudesakedinnalet him fa'
in.'
E5A Rutland rum seller, being recently
before a court as a culprit, assumed the atti
tude of an accuser of the authorities, saying
'It is a pity I was disturbed. The people
were becoming so well trained that they took
liquors from me which were two thirds water.
If I had been let alone, I think they would
have drank clear water before six months.'
A Lady said to a gentleman who had
accompanied her and her sister to church,
Why, it rains send and get an umbrella.'
'Why,' said the Was, you are neither su
gar nor salt, rain will not hurt you.'
No,' said tho lady, 'but we aro lasses.'
He sent for one immediately.
Hog-Rootiso. To prevent hogs from root
ing cut across the nose, just above the gristle
of the snout, by which you will sever the nasal
tendon, by which the operation is performed.
Then split the gristle of the nose up and down
the lace, and the work is done. For the long
nosed, flap-cared breed, cut the nose off eigh
teen inches above the snout.
Polite Lying. "In carving a partridse."
says Sidney Smith, "I splashed Miss Mark-
ham with gravy from head to foot : and tho'
I saw three distinct brown rills uf animal juice
trickling down her cheek, she had the com
plaisance to declare that not a drop had reach
ed her. Such circumstances are the triumphs
of civilized life."
KF"Mceting a negro on the road, with a
crape on his hat, a traveller said :
"Yon have lost some of your friends, I see."
"Yes, Massa."
"Was it a near or distant relative'"
"Well, putty distant 'bout twenty four
miles," was the reply.
E7-A young gent at a ball, in whisking
about the room, ran his head against a lady
He began a kind of dandy-like apology for his
head-work. "Not a word, sir," said the lady,
it is not hard enough to hurt anybody." Dan
dy disappeared among the crowd.
Men's feelings are always purest and
most glowing m the hour of meeting and fare
well ; like the glaciers, which are traosnarent
and rosy-hued only at sunset, but throughout
the day grey and cold.

at night, to reflect that we are at ueaca with
all persons! that we have carefully performed
the dutle ortne day ! tnat the Almighty be
holds and loves us!
