Every bear should be taught to dance,

When a man is saddled with a bad wife

Greeley's criticism of Bancroft?"A-ble
but questionable."

"What in the worst kind of fair for a
man to live on ? Warfare.
The Washington Chronicle makes a pun
on Sumner's having "an eager audience"
(a nigger audience.)
Where is paper money first mentioned
in the Bible '( When the dove brought
the green back to Noah.
Why is a normal school l:kc Mount
Washington ? Because its a prime airy institute.
Why is a convalescent dyspeptic like a
reprieved criminal ? Because ho can't
die jest yet.
Why is electricity like the police when
they are wanted ? Because it is an invis
iblc force.
"Caught in her own net," as a man said
when he saw one ol'the fair sex hitched
in her crinoline.
Why is a husband like a Mississippi
steamboat'( Because he never knows when
he may get a blowing up.
The character of an upright man is like
a pair of boots. Tho more you black it
tho more it shines.
Why is it easy to break into an old man's
house ? Because his gait is broken, ami
his locks are few.
It is said that a sober man when drunk

Prentice says of an editor 'who smelt a
rat,' that if he did, and the rat suielt him
tho poor rat had the worst of it.
A melancholy sight is that of a shot
maker who has lost his all and breathed

Mrs. Partington's Ike has bought a horse

iu a decanter.
"How long did Adam remain in Para

It is something terrible when manhood

"Mamma," said Harry, a bright little
fellow of three, who had bitten a Targe cavity
in a dough nut, instead of getting a
good mouthful as lie anticipated, " please
give me another doughnut, this aint a good
one, it's all weared out."
Some of our Western friends have s
talent for the figurative. One of our Ten
ncssce exchanges describes another, as
"holding its left hand under tho swallow
tail of its constitutional dignity, and ex
tending the nose wiper of interrogative
pathos in its right."
Teach your sou to work?to work with
his hands?to combine muscular powct
with brain power, and he will seldom turn
thief, vagabond or vagrant. The great
misfortune with a maioritv nf nnr vnnnn
men is, that they have been taught no regular
trade or employment. They now feel
sadly the want of this useful training. Impress
a boy with the value of time, touch
him some honorable calling, however humble,
and if he has the man in him it will
develop itself in time, lie will teach him
self, from observation and association with
the best class of persons, who always reeOgftlie
ttnd appreciate true merit?to be,
tmd hot merely appoar to be a gentleman.
The silly notion, so provaicnt heretofore
in this country, that phiaicnl Tabor is ini
consistent with good breeding, mu^t give
way to a more practicable, n inure sensible,
and more lioaltby sentim nt. We wi'l then
have fewer forgeries, fewer gamblers, fewer
drunkards, and consequently a less demand
for space in our .State prisons. We will

Rchools, more and be!tor filled churches,
and a more thrifty, self reliant, intelligent,
hardy and enterprising population.

Truth Fitly Spokkn.?"If,"said Go
vernor Raymond of New York, in his recent
speech in the Federal House of Representatives,
"we cannot treat our Southern
people as members of this I 'nion, without
degrading terms or doing aught to humiliate
and destroy their pride and self-respect,
then we may make up our minds that wo
are not equal to the crisis on which wo aro
fallen. We shall fail in restoring peace,
harmony and prosperity to the I'nion, but
the nation will not perish. Others will
take our places who better appreciate the
nature of the work that devolves upon us,
and who will accomplish the end we fail to
reach, or even to comprehend."
