STTT LOVENGOOD'S BOO '
"When I wer a boy, and my laigs not longer
than John Wentworth's, dad fotcLed home a
d add rapped, wnthless, mangy, fleabiften, gray
old fox honn, good for nothing bnt to swallcr
tip what orter lined the bowels ore ns brats.
Well I natrally tuck a distaste to him, and had
a sorter hankerin' arter his feelin's and dis
cumfertin' ove him every time dad's back was
tamed. This sorter kept a big skcer allers
before his eyes, and an orful yell in his throat
reddy to pore ont the fast niosbnn he seed roe
make. So he larnt to swaller things as he
run, and allers kept his legs well onder him
self, for he never knowd how soon he monght
want to use 'em in trotting his trifling carens
beyond the reach ot a grate fljin' rock. He
knowd the wbiz ov a rock in moshun well, and
be never stopped tn see who flung it, bnt jist
let his head fly open to gin a bowl room to
cum and sot his laigs to gwine the way his
nose happened to be a pintin'. Ile'd shy
roan every rock he seed in the road ; he loot
ed on it as a calamity to enm arter him pome
day. Ef he left home, some nabor's dog tan'd
his hide, and if he stade at home, I was allers
alter it tu tan it ; so he didn't see much more
peace ov mind nnr a suckit rider das in a bap.
tist nabnrbood at sakerment time when the
river am np in dippin' order. And in all my
born days I never seed him agwine the same
way I wdz ; he made that an onbrakabil ruil.
I think I got my fast nollidge ov gittin' away
from imaginary troubil and common tribnla-
shun, from bini ; and with the 'vantage of a
holesnm pair ov laigs and the power of usin'
'em, I allers found his plan tu work well. I
tell you, Georgy, that rnnnin' am the greatest
iovenshnn on yearth when nsed carefully.
Whar'd I been tu by this time ef I hadn't re
lyed ontu these yare laigs ? D'ye see 'em 1
Don't tbey mind you ov a pair ov cumpusscs
made to divide a mile into quarters 1 They
do, I'll be circnmstansbnlly daddrapped cf
they don't. Wall, one day I tuck a pig's blad
der ni ontn the size ov a dock aig and filled it
with powder and korked it up with a piece of
spunk, rolled it np in a thin sculp ov meet and
sot the spunk afire, and flung it out. He swal
lered it at one yerk, and sot to gittin' away
fur doin it. I snne hearn a noise like sunthin
bnstin, and his tail lit atop ov my hat. His
head were way down the hill and had tuck a
deth bolt ontu a roof. His fore laigs were fif
ty feet up the road makin' rnnnin' moshuns,
and bis bine ones astraddil ov the fence. His
innerds were hangin' in links onto the cabin
chimley. As tu the dog hisself, as a dog, I
never seed him agin. Wall, dad flung five or
- six hundred onder my sburt with the dried
skin ofen a bull's tail, and gin me the remain
der next day with a waggin whip what he bor
rered from a feller while he wer a waterin' his
bosses; the waggincr got sorry fur me and
hollered tn me tn turn my beggin' and squeal
in' intu fust rate riinnin, which I immejintly
did, and the last lick missed me about ten
fut, or so.
A Sister nt a Tight Pxace. At X , one
Saturday evening, fatigued by his long jour
ney a wagoner, with his son John, drove his
team into good range, and determined to pass
the Sabbath enjoying a season of worship
with the good folks of the village.
When the time for worship, arrived, John
was set to watch the team, while the wagoner
went in with the crowd. The preacher had
hardly announced his subject before the old
man fell sound asleep. He sat against the
partition in the centre of the body slip ; jast
against him, separated only by the very low
partition, sat a fleshy lady who seemed all
absorbed in the sermon. She struggled hard
-with her feelings until, unable to control them
longer, she burst out with a loud scream, and
shouted at the top of her voice, rousing the
old man, who, but half awake, thrust his arms
around her waist and cried, very soothingly :
"Wo, Cancel Wo, Jfance ! Wo! here,
John," calling his son "cut the belly-band,
and loose the breeching, quick, or she'll tear
everything to pieces !"
It was all the work of a moment; bnt the
sister forgot to shout, the preacher lost the
thread of his discourse, and the meeting
came prematurely to an end ; while, deeply
mortified, the poor old man skulked away,
determined not to go to meeting again until
he could manage to keep his senses by re
maining awake.
How thick shall we sow Oats? An exper
iment made on the State Farm at Westbor-
ough, Mass., to determine the best quantity of
oats to sow per acre, resulted as follows : Two
bushels of seed per acre gave 26 J bushels ;
three bushels, 40 bushels per acre ; four bush
els, and five bushels, 42 bushels per a
cre. Before the general introduction of un-
derdraining, and other improved methods of
cultivation, five bushels of oats per acre was
the usual quantity sown in England. Now,
three to four bushels are sown. In this sec
tion, two bushels are considered sufficient;
and in the Western States, one and a half
bushels. Probably we sow too little.
A Highwayman undertook to rob Major
Jones. He met Jones in a wood over in Jer
sey. He asked Jones for his pocket-book.
Jones refused to yield. Highwayman took
Jones by the neck, and undertook to choke
him. Jones made fight and kept it up for half
an hour. At the expiration of that time Jones
caved, and the highwayman commenced ri
fling his pockets. The contents amounted to
eighteen cents. "Is that all you've got?"
"Every cent." "What made you fight so
long?" "Didn't want to be exposed. Bad
enough to have only eighteen cents ; a great
deal worse to have the whole world know it."
Bather Taken DowsAt a cattle show,
recently, a fellow who was making himself
ridiculously conspicuous, at last broke forth :
"Call these 'ere prize cattle 7 Why, they
ain't nothin' to what our folks raised. My fa
ther raised the biggest calf of any man 'round
our parts." "I don't doubt it," remarked a
bj-stander, "and the noisiest." J

country which touches the Mediterranean, the Eu

transactions will have closed an hour or so before
ours can begin. A revolution in Paris, an impor

afire in Constantinople, will he discussed around
the breakfast-tables of New Xork a few hours af
ter its occurrence. A mi-bty though silent trans
foimation in the condition of human existence has
just been effected by the little wire stretching a
cross the ocean a bed from the coast of Ireland to
that of Lritish America, and one inevitable result
of this must be an unexampled community of feel
ing and interest among the nations of Christen

now require a Semi-Weekly or Daily. In short.
