1 1 jjinqs yclept spelling-schools have not
; I themselves, perhaps, attended and partici
f I fated in the fun and frolic always inci
f 1 dent to such occasions. We have; and we
i niust say, that, for real, genuine pleasure,
untrammelled by the conventionalities of
'-Society," in no better mode of passing an
occasional evening has it been our good
fortune to participate. Spelling-schools,
I however, are not now as they used to
I was they are fallen, like many other great
1 institutions, into disuse and decay. Hut
f they are endeared to us by many inef
faceable incidents fond remembrances of
the past landmarks of our younger, and,
ts is generally supposed, happier days.
I In their more palmy days, oneyouug indi
j vidual, named Robbs, was particularly fond
J cif attending spelling-schools, went in fact,
! j every opportunity that offered. At one of
j these, he met and became acquainted with
j-j a charming youDg lady, named Seraphiiia.
! Now Bobbs, be it known, was a very bnsli-
I ful young man, rather "green" withal, and
; j bad no experience whatever in love affairs.
1 1 Therefore, it is not to be wondered at, that,
; J after a short conversation with the beauti
ful and sprightly young lady, our suscep-
1 tib'e friend became fascinated with the
lyrcn in other words, badly "struck."
J lie devoted his whole attention to her du-
1 re the evening; talked to her, laughed
with her, and ended by accompanying her
home. 1 rchminary arrangements were
likewise made for many meetings of a sini-
1 ilir nature. Now, in consequence of the
;! W'py termination of this his first amor
da projire, he became, in his own estimation,
U Tery consequential man quoted profuse-
W from Byron and read largely of that class
f oflooke whoseaimit is to show, that, altho'
fj "the course of true love may never run
; rnootk," it generally turns out all right in
! the end. Under the existing state of af
s I fiirs, tome young larks who were cognizant
tn his high-handed proceedings, resolved
to bring him back to the common walks
cf hfe down to a level with the rest of
ainlind. Accordingly, for the better ex
raiion of this charitable purpose, they
indited him a very affectionate epistle, in
viting him, in the name of his Seraphina,
to be present at a "spelling," to be held on
certain night, where she promised to at
tend and bespeaking for the occasion a high
old time. To say that IJobbs was pleased
on receiving the billet-doux would be a
eak expression he was delighted rais
2 to the highest pinnacle of ecstatic blips.
On the appointed night, as might be easily
gncsscd, he took an early start for the
school-house. What recked he though it
m raining pitchforks? and the mud was
knee deep ?-and he had two miles to walk ?
''bore laughs at locksmiths," and we may
11 at the weather-clerk, and all other ob
noxious personages also. On his arrival
his destination, however, what was his
'urprise, Lis horror, to find no lights strcam

'flouts or merry laughter resounding from

fully he retraced his steps. Oh ! that wea
rJ homeward walk ! The next day, how
Tcr, Bet matters all right again ; for he
received another letter from h is inamorata
I (per aforesaid "larks") stating that in con
fluence of untoward events, the spelling
jhool had been deferred until thesucceed
I ,ng Friday, when and where he was rcquir-
w attend if he thought proper. This
c'red Up tie C0Dwe bs. He uqw taw, or
l0gmed to saw, the cause of his mysteri
s and painful disappointment, over which
e kid racked his mind all nieht to cypher
satisfactory solution, and failed.
lj- ,to "obba impatient and impassioned
I'posirion, the rusty old wheels of Time
pvolred, but when at length the night for
j rea"iation of his hopes or fears dul&r
Te' e 0Iice more made a bee-line for the
f d'Cuol -house. It would be unnecessary
i herc 6 into detail about the various
cident3 of his journey of his arrival at
1 8chool-nUBs of his finding it eilent
as to tho probability or improbability of a
spemng being held there that night at
!"3 final certainty as to the latter
proposition and of his consequent wrath;
suffice it to say, that he found himself a
second time "sold" and at a very low bid.
It is not known with any degree of cer
tainty what he said or did on that trying
occasion, but tradition asserts he used some
very profane and wicked language, and
denounced both spelling-schools and Ser
aphinas as humbugs in no measured terms.
Nor has he, as far as ascertained, ever
paid the slightest attention to either since,
his appreciation of the truly beautiful and
useful being in a great measure dimmed
by that last journey in pursuit of happi
ness under difficulties. As a fitting con
clusion, we would here state that this is
an ower true tale of one who "loved not
wisely but too well."
Plant a Tree. As the Spring time
of the year h come, we hope to be excused
for again calling the attention of our citi
zens to the propriety of planting thade
trees along our pavements and side-walks.
If there is any one thing which beautifies
and adorns a town more than another, or
shows its inhabitants to be possessed of
the liner susceptibilities of nature, it is
that. And what is more grateful or re
freshing, during the intense heat of sum
mer, than the cooling shade they afford ?
Many of our citizens have successfully
planted and reared trees in front of their
respective domicils, but again there are
many who have not. Those who have
not yet performed this duty, should not
suffer the coming season to pass without
making amends for their neglect. Ebcns
burg, with what Nature has done for her
in the way of beautiful location and ro
mantic surroundings, could and should
be made one of the handsomest towns in
the State. Plant a tree !
Ouk Paper. On our outside this week
will be found a beautiful original poem,
from the peu of our accomplished author
ess, "Jennie." Our readers, e know, will

In the inside, we begiu the publication of
the series of sketches entitled "Cambria
County" papers which every "frosty son
of thunder" should read, as they will form

County from its settlement to the present
time. "We have also received, and will
publish next week, an intercstin : o; i-:; al
story, entitled "That Sleigh-Pu le" writ
ten expressly for this paper. Our aim is
to make The Alhyham'an a paper that will

"Not Good Looking." A correspond
ent sends us the following good one, stating
that the circumstance actually occurred
whilst he was teacher of a class of boys, in
a colored Sunday-School, in Washington,
Pa. The lesson for the day was in the 26th
chapter of Genesis, where Esau is spoken
of as having two wives, "which were a grief
of mind unto Isaac and Rebekah."
Teacher, (imprettive !) " Why did Isaac and
Rebekah not wish Esau to marry these daugh
ters of the heathen?"
A general silence for a short time prevailed,
broken only by a few whispered "don'tknows"'
when oue little curly-headed chap, familiarly
known about town as "Aleck," looked up, his
face beaming with intelligent, and replied:
"Spec' 'twas' 'easedey wasu'tgood-lookin'."

get the usual lesson for next Sabbath, when
your regular teacher will be present."
