"There! everything has gone wrong today
!" said little Mary Allen, ns sho tossed
her school satchel on the ilour, and untied
tlie Btrings of hor sun bonnet with a jerk.?
llcr pretty red lips wore distorted with a pout
and nor whole face looked sullen and cross.
"Whoso fault is it, Mary ?" o- ^ed her mother,
who sat sowing by the window.
"Not mine, I juu sure," suid Mary; "but
it bus all gouo wrong, every single thing,

is."
Mary sat down on a little footstool at her
mother's side, but kept her eyes cast down,
and begun to twist the corner of her apron
into a rope.
"Now something else is going wrong, 1 am
afraid," said her mother smiling, as she took
the uj>ron out of her lingers, and smoothed it

hands in her own, and said,, gently, "Now
tell mo. Mary, what went wrong in the first
place ?"
"Well, in the first place," said Mary, Mushing
and dropping her eyes again, '"1?was?
lute?at breakfast."
"Whoso favdt was that, my dear?"
"I don't know," said Mary, hesitatingly,
"I couldn't help it."
"Very well, if you couldn't help it, you're j
not to blame. What next?"
"Then 1 couldn't goto ride with papa, as ]
ho said I might last nigltf, and I couldn't get
my lesson?it eame scliooltime so quick, and ]
1 lost onoofmy books. Then Fanny Dayton

for mc, anil my bonnet blew oft' going to
school, and I stumbled up the stops and tore
my frock. Miss Miller rang tho bell, 1 know,
just us soon us she saw mo turn the corner?
she always will be so dreadful punctual, so !.
had to be marked tardy."
"Tako care, my dear, I am afraid something
is going wrong again," said -Mrs. Alien,
as Mary's tone grew very cross.
"Well, I can't help that," said Mary.
''Then Miss Miller would ask mo all the
hardest questions and gave mo such a long
Hum to do on the black-board; and then because
1 didn't get it right,, she made mo stay
in at recess. 1 don't think it was fair, for
Fanny Dayton couldn't do hor's oithcr ; but
1 had to take the blame of everything to-day.
1 am sure Miss Miller gave me the very hardest
words in the spelling lessons, for she always
does, and then, when 1 missed, the girls
laughed at me, and 1 didn't earo if I missed
every word." Mary dropped hor head in her
mother's lap, and fairly cried.
Mrs. Allen waited a few minutes, till she
grow moro quiet, and then said, "Finish your
story, Mary ; what went wrong this afternoon
?"
"Well, I lost my j)lnco in tlift geography
class, and 1 knew every word of my lesson i
too."
"IIow did you happen to lose your place
there?"
"M iss Miller wouldn't let mo say it! She |

' That if quite achaptor of niivfortunos tru- j

Mary, if wc can iiud out tlio cause of it all, |
?o as to prevent everything from going wrong
another time. To begin, you were late at j
breakfast, which you say you could not help. |
You forgot, iny daughter, that you indulged !
in another nap after 1 callod you, and so lost
tho half hour you would have bad before breakfast.
Thai was surely your own fault, was

'Yes, mamma."
"Then being disappointed of your ride, von

"Yon, maiuma."
"Then you, hastened to school, and was
heated and tired, and beintr just too lato, was
disposed to blame Mias Miller for her punctuality.

was walking toward the Railroad
track. The dogs suddenly jumped on him
one seizing him by the cult' of the leg, and
the other attempting to catch him by the
throat. 11 o had presence of mind sufficient
to throw up his arm in defence of his throat
and the dog seized him by the arm, tearing
away the clothe* and flesh in a terrible
manner. The other dog tore the flesh from
his leg, and severed an artery, lie then
caught Young by the top of his head with
his teeth, and literally tore oil the scalp.?
The other dog fastened his fangs in his
breast, and they had so completely worried
and bitten him, that he was almost oxlians
tod and entirely overpowered, and but for
the timely assistance of a neighbor, would
no doubt have been killed outright. The
man attacked them with a club, ami had
much difficulty in getting them loose from
their prey.
Great excitcmentwas created in the neighborhood
by the news of the terrible a flair,
and a crowd of people assembled to hunt
the dogs and kill them. They were shot
with bird shot, but got away before any
more ciiecuvc weapons could be obtained.
A party, however, soon started in pursuit,
and they will certainly bo killed as soon as
found. Mr. Young is a tall, stout man,
and oneof the snrvivorsoftho terrible Pennsylvania
disaster. We hope the wounds
inflicted by the dog will prove loss dangerous
than represented, and that he will soon
be ont again.
We learn that one of the dogs has been
killed, but tlie other escaped. A boy was
the first one to interfere in behalf of Mr.
Young, by shooting at one of the dogs with
a pistol, scaring the brute off. The muscles

Kcivptian Wmitk Winter Oats.?A
new and extremely hardy variety of oats
has for several years been grown by our
Poinaria friends, which bids fair to supersede
all others for Southern culture. It
is large, heavy, and withstands the severest
cold. If sown early in autumn, it affords
fine grazing through the winter, and
in the spring rapidly shoots up and makes
a line crop. Col. Hummer has an acre
which was sown five years since, which
produces a good crop annually, without
other seeding. I] is plan is to lot the oats
get over-ripo, and in harvesting it, enough
seed is loft in the ground to make a stand,
lie immediately ploughs in pens broadcast
and cither grazes or gathers the pea vines
in autumn, and the oats spring up and
flourish finely, lie also sowed in July a
field with the last ploughing of cotton.?
It w;m pastured till the middle of March,
and then made a fair crop. Sown in this
way, it is, on good land, knee high by

girls who presented in themselves a singular
physiological study. Their ages wore
respectively uino and eleven years, while
tliey weighed b ut thirteen a ndlifteen pounds
and their height from crown to sole is but
twenty-nine and thirty-one inches respectively,
yet they are in all respects symmetrically
mad'.-, healthy and happy children,
able to talk, sing, dance aua piny hkc other
ohildren of their age. What is remarkable
about these little fairies is the; fact that
their father and mother are mortals of ordinary
size, and that they have a younger
brother and sister three and six years of
age, who have attained the growth usual
to their ages. They arc a much greater
curiosity than the " Aztecs," who made
so much excitement here a few years since,
for they were idiotic, while thesolittle girls
arc Wight and intelligent as well asdimin
utive. Tlicy woro born in ono ot' the towns
of Middlesex county, Massachusetts, of
genuino Yankee a took. They will not be
made u public exhibition, but will live uatuval
lives, in privooy, with kheir relations.
They weighed three and half pounds each at
the time of their birth, and continued to
grow like other children until the age of
eighteen month*, when the arret (lu development

without difficulty pings which were put on
their fingers at the ago of two years. They
arc charmingly pretty children.

Don't be Discouraged.
Don't be discouraged, if iu the out sot of
life tilings do not go smoothly. It seldom
happens that the hopes wo cherish of the
future are, realized. The path o; life, in
the prospect, appears smooth am7, level
enough; but when wo come to travel it,
wo find it up hill, and generally rough.?
The journey is a laborious ono, and wheth!
er poor or wealthy, high or low, we shall
I uim iu our disappointment, it we have
built upon any other calculation. To endure
cheerfully what must be, and to elbow
our way as easily as wc can, hoping for little,
yet striving for much, is perhaps the
plan. Hut don't bo discouraged, if occasionally
you slip by the way, and your neighbors
tread over you a little ; in other words,
don't let a failure or two dishearten you.?
Accidents will Imnnon ?fill
| sometimes be made, things will often turn
out differently from our expectations,and wo
may be the sufferers. It is worth while to
remember that fortune is like the skies in
April, sometimes cloudy, and sometimes
clear and favorable ; and it. would bo folly
to despair of again seeing the sun, because
to-day is stormy ; so it is equally unwise to
sink into despondency.when fortune frowns,
since, in the common course of thiugs, she
may be surely expected to smile again.?
And again ; don't be discouraged if you arc
j deceived in the people of the world. It
j often happens that men wear borrowed
' characters, as well as borrowed clothes, and
I sometimes those who have long stood fair

From sources such as these, you may bo
most unexpectedly deceived, aiul you will
naturally feel sore under such deceptions?
but to these you must become used. I fvou
fare as most people do, they will lose tli<;ir
novelty before you grow grey, .md you will
learn to trust men cautiously, and examine
their character closely, before you allow
them opportunities to injure you. Don't
be discouraged under any circumstances;
go steadily forward. Ilather consult your
own conscience than the opinion of men,
though the last is not to be disregarded.?

An 1 xyktkaktk Liar.?Davidson Col
; lege, /North I'arnlina, contributes :i good
story of a man with a very bad habit. As
if i.. al! about lying. ili<' reader will believe
it or n- I as he like-. :
" h; tho oliI North State lives a certain
.John Long, who draws a long bow whenever
ho has anything to toll, and his character
i'or truth and voracity has been below
zero for many years. Captain .Johnson
had been so taken in by one of John's outrageous
stories that he said to him in a pet:
" If you make me believe one of your
lies again in a month I'll give vou fifty
dollars."
I " John protended to bo quite hurt by tin:

to htm :

ginning cotton, and in 110 danger of tho

nianded the fifty dollars. The captain do'
elarcd it was a rascally trick, hut he wouhJ
| have had to pay the money if .John had
not let him off."
Tuk Uskb or Monky.?The desire to
bo rich i- not an evil of itself. It is nonsense
for a man to stand up and disclaim
i t t .. - 1
i tlie uesire tor wealth, and urge upon the
j world the idea that it should appear poor.
I Money is neither an evil nor a good of iti
self; it has not a moral character ot'its own.
It is simply un agent, and whether it be
good or evil, depends upon the manner in
which it is used. It is like a sword.?

The following rtory is aoknowledjjL'd ii j?
" f^ood one," but wo luivo never before seen (j
it in print: ,1
A few years since, some roguish boys 0(
in a town not a thousand uiiles distant from j li
! the capital of New Hampshire, persuaded j t?
! Joseph N , or, its' he was generally NS
j called, "Joe," to attend Sunday school.? [ l'
i .Joe was an overgrown, half-witted, profit tic J
lad. mid tlif linvs lnitif-imili'd cniiKlilm. I
able fun out of him ; but the answers to the
various questions propounded were given ! 'J
: so readily and correctly thnt no one could
. for :i moment suppose thnt he was not i'ul- ; tj
ly versed in theological lore.
Joe was duly ushered in, and placed on {
1 a settee in front of the one on which his ! e
| friends were seated, and the recitation com- tl
! uiencrd. v
The teacher first questioned the class on s,
1 their regular lesson, and t-ium turned to Joe.
"My friend," said the teacher, "who i lj
; made the world we inhabit?" ( n
"Kb?" said Joe, turning up his eyes j ,t
like an expiring calf. j
' Who made the world wc inhabit?" ,
.J list as he was probably about to give
i the answer, one of tho boys seated behind t c
! inserted a pin into his (.Joe's) pants, aboil*,; f
, nine inches below the ornamental button of j K
: his coat. v
I "(rod Almighty!" answered Joe, >n an
eii vated tone, at tlie same tinio vising r
quickly from his seat. j ^
"That is correct," replied tho teacher; '
"but it is not necessary that you should
rise in answering. A sitting posture does
just as well." :l
Joe was again seated, aud the catechism 1
proceeded.
| "Who died to save (ho world?" I ^
Tho pin was again inserted) and Joe replied?"Jesus
(Mirist!" in a still louder
voice, vising, as before, from his sent.
' That is also correct, but do not niani- ~
test so much feeling; do be uiorc composcd
and reserved in your manner," said the v
teacher, in an expostulating tone. 1
After .Joe had calmed down, the examination
went on. n
"What will be the final doom of all wick- *
ed men ?" was the subject now up for consideration
; and as the pin was again stuck ^
in, Joe thundered out, with a higher elevation
of his body?"Hell and damnation!" t
"My young friend," said the instructor, ?
"you give the true answer to all these
questions; but while you are here, wc wish r
| you to be more mild in your words. l)o
endeavor, if you can, to restrain your cn- t'
thusinfiin, nnd give a less extended scope to t
your feelings." 1

we used to call him, among lots of good
qualities, had one failing. He did lovogood j
liquor; but such was the state of his cred- J
i it, that no ond would trust him. He, therefore,
one day, resorted to a triek, to answer
the great desire of his appetite. He took
two case-bottles, put a quart of watoi in v
r xi i ' < 1
uuu 111 iuviii, uk:ii pur a uihuc 10 eacii po< U- . n
ct, and started for the store. "I'll take a j
quart of your gin," s iid 1'nolo 10b, as lie j ?'
plnced tbo empty bottle on the counter.? ' '
'1'liegin was up, and (ho bottle was roplae- |
cd in his pocket, when I'nolo Kb pulled
from his purse what at a distance might ,,
seem like a quarter or a dollar. "This is t
nothing but tin, Unclo Kb," said the trn- i
der." '*ICh, now it's a quarter," said l*i?- 1
do Kb, "It's tin," said the trader; "I ' 1
shan't take it." "It's nil T'vr> ?. ..? "?! 1
, - - - p . j I
i "Very well, you can't have tlio gin." I n-;
| clo Kb, without much demurring, pulled
I from his pockct tho quart of water. Tho "
trader took it, poured it into his gin-barrel,
I and Jft' walked Uncle Eb, chuckling.
