This incident was brought to my mind by the pa rent of a boy, who bad been grossly neglec ted sluiply_because_h_e was very poor and comparatively without friends : r.lany years ago, when I was a small boy, I attended school in the town of —. A mong other scholars there was one named George Henry. His father was a poor,drink ing man, and the unfortunate boy had to suf. fer in consequence. George came to school habited in ragged garments—but they were all he had. lie Was rough and uncouth in manners, for he had been brought up in this way lie was very ignorant, fur the simple reason that he never had the opportunity of ed nen tion. Season after season • poor George Henry occupied the same seat in the school-room, it was a back corner seat, away from the rest of the scholars—and there he thumbed his tattered primer. The ragged condition of his garb gave a homely cast to his whole ap pearance, and what intelligence there was in his countenance was beclouded by the .'out er coverings" of the boy. He seldon play-. ed with other children, for they seemed to shun him, but when be for a while joined with them in their sport, he was so rough that ho was soon shoved out of the way. The teacher passed the poor boy coldly in the street, while other boys in better attire were kindly noticed. in the 'school, young Henry was o.llly treated. The teacher neg lected blur and called him an 'idle block head,' because he did not learn. The boy received no incentive to study, and conse quently he was most of the time idle, an i• dleaess which begat his disposition to while away his time in mischief. Far this he was whipped and the more idle he became. Ho knew that he was neglected by the teacher, - simply because be was poor and ragged, and with a sort of sullen indifference, sharpened at tithes by feelings of bitterness,he plodded on his•dark and-pathless way. Thus mutters went on for several -Years, most of the scholar who were Henry's age had paused the higher branches of study, while be, poor fellol, still kept his distant scat in the corner. s Ills father had sunk deeper into the pit of \ inebriety, and the un• fortunate bay was more wretched t h ever. The look of clownish, indifference which had marked his countenance, was now giv ing, away to a shape of unhappy thought and feeling, and it was evident that the great turning point of life was at hand He Mood now in the step of life from which the fate of after yours must take rest.- „ • At this time a man by the name of Kelly; tcok•chartre of the school, Ho was an old teacher and a elreful observer of human ua• 416.

On Linden, when the sun wag low, All bloodless fay the unuodden snow; And dark as winter was the flow Of Isar, rolling rapidly. But Linden saw another eight, When the drum heat at the dead of night Commanding fires of death to light The darkness of her scenery. By torah and trumpet fast arrayed Each horseman drew his battle blade, And furious every charger neighed To join the dreadful revelry. Then shook the hills with thunder riven Ther.rushed the steed to battle driven; And louder than the boults of heaven Far flashed the red artillery. The combat deepens. On, ye hrtye Who rush to glory, or the grave Wave, Munich, all thy banners wavo, Anil charge with all thy chivalry ! Few, few shall part, when many meet ! The snow shall be their winding short, And every tut f beneath their feet Shall be a soldier's sepulchre. T. CAMPEINLL ti~ = ~ re-and-really-a-gooiLman—Long_years of guardianship - over wild youths had given him a bluff, authoritative . way, and .in Lie discipline he was strict and unwavering. The day he passed at the teacher's desk of our school, he was mostly devoted to watching the movements of the scholars, and studying the disposition of those with whom he had to deal. U .on Geor. e Hour his eyes.rested with a keen scare. ir - ti — ince,ti - u evidently made little of him during the first day, yet on the second day he paid more at tention. It was during the afternoon of the second day that Mr. Kelly observed young Henry engaged in stringing flies upon a pin. Ho went to the boy's seat and reprimanded him for his idleness and took up the tattered book from the desk. 'Have you never learned more than is in this book ?' asked the teacher. 'Na sir,' said the boy. .'How long have yo u ben attending school ?' `Ever since I can remember.' - 'Then you must be an idle, reckless boy,' said the teacher with much severity. 'Do ynu realize how many years you have thrown away ? IThat sort of a man do.you think of making in this way ? . One of these days you will be too old to' go to school, and then, while your companicins are seeking some hon orable employment, you will be good for no thing. Have you a father cod mother ?' 'Yes, sir,' said the boy in a hoarse sub dued voice . ad d' nnance The boy hung down his head and was sr lent, but Mr Kelly saw two great tears roll down his cheeks In an instant the teacher saw that he had something more than au i dle, stubborn mind to deal with in the rag ged scholar before him. He laid his hand on his bead and in a kind tone said : 'I wish you to stop after school is dismiss ed. 'Don't be afraid, I wish to assist you if I can' George looked wonderingly into the mas ter's face, for there was something in the tone of the voice that fell upon his ear that sounded strange to him and he thought as he looked around that the rest of ,the scholars regarded him with kinder countenances than usual. A dim thought broke in upon his mind that for some cause he was going to be happier than he was before. After school was dismissed, George re mained in his seat till the teacher called him up to his desk. 'Now,' said Mr. Kelly; I wish to know why it is that you have never learned any MOM. You look bright, and you look as though you might make a smart man. Why is it that I find you so ignorant 2 1 'Because no one ever helps me,' replied the boy. 'No body cares fur me sir, for I am poor.' By degrees the kind-hearted teacher got the whole of the poor boy's histdry,and while the generous tears bedewed his eyes, he said : 'You have been wrongly treated, George, but there is time for redemption. If I will try to teach you, will you try to learn ?' 'Yes-011 yes,' quickly uttered the boy: in earnest tone. 'Yes---1 should like to learn, I don't want to be a bad boy,' he thrillingly added, while his face glowed with anima tion. Mr. Kelly pronii(ed to purchase books for tlre - h - oras - fast — as — lrc — co - uld — learn — to — read them, and when George Henry left the school room, that evening his face was wet with tears, We scholars who had remained in the en• try, and saw him come out, ha 3 our hearts warmed towards the poor boy. We spoke fondly to him paid walked with him to his house, his heart was too full for utterance. On the next morning George Henry com• menced to study in good earnest, and the teacher helped him faithfully. Never did I see a change so radiant and so ,sudden as that which took place in the habits of the poor boy. As soon as the teacher treated him with kiuduess and respect, the scholars followed the example, and the result was that they found in the Unfortunate youth one of the most noble hearted generous and accommo dating and truthful playmateS in the 'world. Long years have passed since those school. boy days. Henry George has become a mau of middle age, and in all the country there is not a man mole beloved and respected than he is. And all is the result of one teacher having done his duty. You who are school teachers, remember the responsibility that devolves upan you.— In this country of free schools there should be no distinction between classes. All are alike entitled to your care and counsel, and the weaker the child, the more earnest should be your endeavor to lift him up and aid him. DRILL FOR VOLI3N . iu! To good ways aid habit 4.

He resu med,hiiteatrand—commemed his study.— Shortly after, the same noised on looking out saw a similar operation; the woman filling her great apron to the utmost limits of its capacity. W hen she had gone, he returned to his book with a tender pity in his heart for a destitution which sought relief in this lonely, dreary, not to say sinful manner.. By and by be was startled by a heavy Crash of falling wood, and, burning up to the window, beheld the poor woman casting the very dust of the wood from her apron.— He remained motionless, his gentle heart fill ed with commiseration. She swiftly depart ed, and soon returned heavily laden with wood, which she threw on the pile as if it were the "accursed thing." The Doctor's compassion and curiosity were now intensely excited. lie followed her retreating figure till be discovered her residence, and thus ascertained who she was.

Governor Marcy of Now York, used to re late an anecdote illustrating that riches do not depend upon the amount a man possess es, but upon his condition of mind; some are poor with a hundred thousand dollars, oth ers rich with legs than one fiftieth of that a mount. A rough backwoodsman called upon the Governor one morning, and inquired if he was "Bill Marcy that used to live in Southport." "Yes," said Mr.' Marcy, who was quite curious to know who his visitor might be. told 'em so but they wouldn't believe it—but youlion't no me, do you ?" "Your fuels familiar, but I can't call you by name." "My name is-Jaok Smith, and we used to go to school together thirty years ago r in-the-little-sehool-house-in—Southport - Well, times have changed, and you have got rich since then, I suppose," The Governor shook his head, bit the lumberman broke in, ‘ , 'Oh, yes you are, no use denying it for you've been in office a long time, and have got lots of money, and I'm glad of it." "I suppose," said the' Governor, "fortune has smiled upon you since you left Southport." Oh, yes, I can't complain, I must say I've got a long right smart. 'You see shortly af ter you,let Southport, we moved into Ver mont, and I reckon we cleared up more laud than any other family in the whole State."' "And so you have made a good thing of it flow much do you consider yourself worth?" "well," replied the satisfied man, straighten ing himself up don't exactly know how much I'm worth,: but I thinkif all my debts were paid, I should be worth three hundred dollars, clear cash." He was the richer man of the two, although the Governor could no doubt have counted his thousands. . INDIAN STRATEGY — Ono of the tour teenth New York artillery—a Seneca Indian —undertook on a wager to bring in alive a rebel sharpshooter who was perched in a tree iu front of the Union lines at Petersburg, considerably in advance of his own. his manner of accomplishing this was as iagen -gams ns successful.

A Masonic Incident A little incident containing some mystical interest -transpired in Wayne County, South Carolina, during the late war. It is the fol lowing: It was late at night, the husband was ab sent, and the wife, shine with her children bad retired. Three or four soldiers rudely knocked at the door of his house, and de manded entrance and something to eat.— The good lady told them that it was too late, that she bad nothing cooked, but fearing they would break the door, she got out of bed and opened it to expostulate with them. They insisted that she should cook some thing for them, and while she was getting ready, and they were roaming about the house, one of the party who seemed to be the leadar, happened to find a copy of Mack ey's "Masonic Jurisprudenetlying upon__ the side table. Turning it over he found the name of the poor frightened woman's husband written on the fly leaf. "Is this your husband?" he inquired of the lady. 'Yes, sir," was the timid reply. "Is he a mason?" "Yes, sir." . "Come boys, right about—marchr and immediately the house was cleared, and quickly' closed. CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CASES —l' h e Physical appearance of a man sometimes changes the current of events. A case oc curred a few days ago. The children of two neighbors had their daily quarrels and , fights, whioh resulted occasionally in bruised faces and torn garments. The father of one fami ly, believing his children to have been sally maltreated, and being a passionate man, con cluded' that the surest way to settle the dif. ferences . between their households perma nently, would be to chastise the head of the family, although, as yet, he had never seen him. He thereupon procured a rawhide, and, abruptly entering his neighbor's tene ment, inquired, in a threatening tone, • for 'the man of the house.' am bore, sir,' said a petsonage of upwards of six feet, and weighing some two hundred and twenty pounds, as he approached to learn the busi.

Well I just dropped in to see if this is your raw hide?' • A LANDLORD '9o4.O."—The Boston Trae der relates that in a prominent hotel in Nash ua, N. IL, a few weeks since, a young lady engaged board for two or three days, and at the end of that time, when about to leave. told the landlord a young gentleman would be along in a day or two and settle for her board. The obliging landlord told her she had bottoi leave her valise for seourity,which she did, and took her departure. About a week afterwards the landlord opened the ya hoo as no young man appeared, and found that it. was full of sheets and pillow oases that belonged to the rooms in his hotel, and were his own 'property. The young lady ban improved her time during her stay, and had "made over" some of the artioloa into garments for herself.

Horace Maynard in his speech in Roston,- a few nights since, thus happily answered President Johnson's claptrap about the twentj-five and thirty-six stars: "The question is not Whether; we are to have thirty-six or twenty-five States.
