AUNT TABITHA. Whatever I do and whatever I sjiy, Annt Tabitha tells me that isn't the way ; When she was a girl, (forty summers ago.) Aunt Tabitha tells me they never did so. Dear aunt. If I only would take her advice! But I like my own way, and I find it so mee! And besides, I forget half the thiugs I am told ; Bi?t they all will come back to me-when I am old. If a vouth passes bj', it may happen, no doubt. He may chanco to look in as I chance to look out ; She would never endure an impertinent stare- ' . ;. It is horrid, says she, andi musn't sit there: A walk in the moonlight has pleasure, I own. But it isnt quite saf? to be walking alone ; So I take * lad's arm-just for safety, you % know Bat Aunt Tabitha tells me they didn't do so. How wicked .we are, and how good they wore then ? ' They kept.at arm's length those detesta ble men ; What an era of virtue she lived in! But stay Were theaden all such rogues in Aunt Tabitha's day ? If the men were so wicked, I'll ask my papa How he dared to propose . to my darling mamma,: Was he like>file 'rest of them? Good ness ! Who knows? And what shall I say if a wretch should propose? I am thinking, if aunt knew so little of sin, What a wonder Aunt Tabitha's aunt must have been ! And her grand-aunt-it scares me-how shockingly sad That we girls "of to day are so frightfully had! A-martyr will save us, and nothing else can; Lot me perish-to resouo some wretched young mao I Though when to the altar a victim I go, Aunt Tabithu'll tell me she never did BO ! The Dutchman's Strike. A German, called Jacob, wbo had lately arrived in this country, got a situation in a planing mill, at a sala ry of $10 per week. Returning home one evening'with one of the young hands of the mill, (whom he called John), he told him that he got $15 per week. " Vot?" cried Jake, "you was got teu filleen toolers a week ? Thun der and blitzen ! I was so old like you a couple of dimes, and I got me $10. How dat vos? *' Well," replied John, " if you don't get enough, you strike the boss for more." " Vot you say ? Strike the boss for moro? You dink I was got more hier vages uf I vas strike ter boss aint id ?"' " Yes," replied John, " ? think you would." " All reid,'' said Jacob. So on Monday Jacob went to work as usual ; he took up his station by the door, and as the proprietor came down the street, Jacob stepped out in front of him and; struck him with all his force, felling him to the ground saying at the same time. "Dare! I vos strike you for more high?r vages, don't id ?" .The proprietor bawled ."Police!" which had the effect, of bringing an officer, apd Jacob was arraigned for assault and battery. When the May or as&ed him what he had to say, he replied : " Veil, ton't vos could find me out vot der matter vos. I go m? home mit a man vot work by me. He tole me to got more vages I vas petter go strike ter poss he vos come dis morn in?. I striken him for dot vages higher, and now I vas got here foi salt and batter ; I don't quite under stand me dot." During the laughter which follow ed the German was informed t?ai when he wanted to strike again, net to make such a striking demand, ami the employer withdrawing the charge, he wac discharged. He Was Left? A geuuine touch of worn m nature as weil as human nature, pervades the following from * correspond II in Detroit : " A comfortable old cou ple sat a seal or two in frbx* of us on the railroad dnrin-r on* c>r.t)ie hottest days of last summe \ The journey was evidently on? of th* events of tl.?>'r lives, ?md their euri osity excited the attention of the passengers. At a w?y sta ti? n the old gentlemen Plopped out i f th* cars to get a drink, or to'bnv H dniyh nut, and he??rd the bell only iji tim to rush to the door of the eating house and see the train moving o?: without him. The old l:.dv in h. seat had been fidgeting, and looking out of the window in her anxiety ft? hisieturn, and when she saw Eic plight, his frantic gestuies i'.,r lb? train to stop a" ic swept tar!her ?md farther away, she exclaimed : " 'There! my old man's got left ! he has ! ! theie, see he has ! j ! VYV11,' she continued settling back into her seat again, Tm glad on't-it's always been " Mammy, you'll- get left ! "mammy, you'll get left !" all my life long ; and now he's gone and got left, and I"n glad on't." "Her candid reflection on the accident, and the evident, sat isfaction she felt in the facr that it was the old man arid not herself tba! was le/t, was greeted by a round ol laughing applause. Not a few of thp ladies in the car were delighted that it was the old man nnd not the wo man who had 'caught it' this time. For once, the lord and not the lady made the blunder, and 'gone and got left.' " A little Danbury boy ran awav from school Monday, to go ches?ut ting. During the expedition he fell out of*one tree twice, to the immi nent danger of breaking his neck, was licked by one of the other DOV? whose breath he materially lesseued by stumbling against his stomach, ran a sliver in his knee, and was bit ten violently on the neck by a new kind of bug. When he got home.his father anointed him with the boss end of a billiard cue, and the next day at school the teacher escorted him twice around the room by his poorest ear. . He says that chestnuts are so wormy this year that it don't pay to go alter them. Ei dr foi El Or to en sal po pu sos _J si The following item from the Wa tertown Dispatch offers any amount )ffood for reflection : "A Watertown ihysician was* ?ailed upon recently iv a person supering from rheuma ?8m, who insisted upon his doing )mething for him. The physician rote a prescription, and as the pa ent went out of the room said to m, " I wish you would Jet me know that does you any good, for I have en very much' troubled with rheu itism lately."
