"I tell you what it is, gal," said old Mr. Lippe to his daughter Sisan, "I'm determined never to hey ia edicated feller for my non-in law ; that's a fixed fact." "But, fat.her,' said Susan, "edu cation don't make or unmake a luau uy more than riches do.- It's the 10111, the p)rillciple, that constitutes -.'it 'Very true, Susan," rejoined daddy Lippe, "and I've fntdi plrociots little principle in aollege bred fellers.

Susan un dcerstood this trait of her father, and letting the argllment drop, re lapsed into silence. While old Mr. Lippe entertained suclh notions of letters, and by the way was always taking pains to iniformt everybody conWcrnin]g it, he had deviated solllewllat with respect to his only child Susan, who had improved the advantages besto wed by all excellent school, situatt: in a samall village adjoining her father's 4 fa;nn. Her mind, too, being i-.tur illy of a studious cast, she had s tored it with an llmsuelly large tnlulltla of inforilation which dis phat.yed itself in refined conversa tioln and well bred viva(city of mnnes. To th11ese graces of the intellect was com)bined1 at beautiful person, and as11 It mautter of 'o(nse quthence, her hand was the coveted prize of more than one young mane 111 the neiglborhood. To the bladlislunents of the stelrner sex. however, Susan turned at deaf ear. The yemng Stanhope,; loved h i father's broad aJc es full as well as they liid his daughter, who, with the (uick instinct of a woman. penetraited the shallownesfs of their proffered love.

With this clincher Mother Lippe Burned her face to the wall, and re. fused to say another word. In the meantime Henry Cover dale was graduially winning his way to emiinenice. The results of his efforts also began to flow in upon him in, a golden stream. Yet, still he remained a hachhelor, though im any woiYdered. Still thera werc no signs of old Mr. Lippo relaxing in the least from his views on etu cation. However, things werb destined to shape themselves entirely different to what a mere observer might reasonably expect. This grew out of Coverdale's love for Susan which now assuned, the east of impatience. One day a young man in home spun garb presented himself at, the 'house of Old Mr. Lippe, anitd inquir ed if he wanted to hire a hand on the farm. The old farmer eyed hin for some moments, and finding him remarka bly well favored and knit-together, said : "Where are you from ?" "I live at Monroe, wlhen at homte," replied the un1g maun. "iaise 1 on a farni " "About how much do you want a month ?" "Whatever you think is right." "You'll never get along in the " orld, unless you drive a better earg ain thaw that," said Mr. Lippe. "Yei shall work i month for fifteen doliaat5s and after that, if we suit one another, we'll bargain for a "oar. "Agreed," said the young mian, and was forthcomingi installed as a hired hand. As the reader guesses, the hand was none other than Jlenr'y Cover dale, who had coImueni-eei to put into operation a plan to gain the ltd man's consent to his mion with Susan. Time wagge.l along. Old Lippe was mightily pleased with his hired hand, and often 'praised him to the' women folks. Indeed, he looked with a leigree of complacency on his attention to Susan, whi-h began to be mairked, and Coverdale was on the poiint of popping the question, when. a i.ruimastaice cau-ed him to postpone it for a short season. '1'he circunstane'e was as follows t. The farmi of Mr. Lippp a' a mirt of a tract, the title of which had for mlerly been in d ispate, though it was indeed and in equity his. Just at this tiime one of those lald. sh;ka4los that infest the couitry raled up a wvorthl'isss claim, and entered suit. for possession. This prceeding w\as so obviously absurd a11 raseally, that. Mr. Lippe merely laugl:ed it it, although at the advice of his hitred land lie ap peared at court to refute the claim ; Supposing, however, that his bare word would be all sufficient to dis pose of the seunm itrel of a land shark. His hired hand also conelud ed to lose the day and go with him, in ordt r, he a. i 1, to see what a Judge andi court were like." Old Mrs. Lippe and Susan accom pa.ied them for the purpose of making soime purchases, as they could get better bar'gains in town. The c'onver'sation of the family had session~f of the facets in the case, and le had manifested such an interest in the aiflair, anud appearted to be so anxious as to the r~csult., tat the old man11 was not astonishedl at seeing huim en ter' the bar and take a chair by his side. He nioticed also, that nis dame and Susan were among the spectaors in the court r'oomi. Th'le case was called, and the law yer for the plaintifl' ar'ose and made out 8o plausib~le a stuatement thiat it enrag-ed theR oh@ ?imn dreadfully, so much soi that lie could searely con tain himself until thme lawyer eon T1hie momnit he. sat do~m tflbe old mnan spranig to his f'eet.

'May it please- t'h-e- eourt, .I will undertake the case for M~r. Lippe,.' said lie. 'A pretty case- you'll make of it,' said the oldi man. 'You cani plow corni a wonderful sight bette.' 'I assure Mr.. ILippe-that Mr. Cov erdale is per'fa.tly competent to the taisk,' said t.he judge, w~ho was weoll acquainted with the young lawyer, and who, though ignoranit of the present relations, faneibd lie smelt a joke in the actions of the parties. -Mehbe your' hon.r is right,' said Mr. Lippe ; 'but a plague take' me if you don't find him, a likely sight better farnm hand( than a lawyer.' lir genieral titter ran around. the TLhe suit pr'oceed'ed-. The yong attoruminey having previously' mlasteredl t)m whole pronid. enternd into. thc morit with such force and clearness as astonished even the court. But how shall we paint the surprise of old Mr. Lippe I It took him lay storm. At every word of the young lawyer lie seemed to distend with astonishment, until his amazenent was something so ridiculously a palling as to conlvulno the - entire audience with laughter. Peal after peal resounded, aid even the fat sides of the judge, forgetting their gravity, seemed ready to shake to Pieces with nierritnent. Who, who, are you ?'t at last gasped the old man. 'Sit down, Mr. Lippo,' stid Vavex. dale, 'Ian attending to the case.' Then stooping he whispered in his ear; 'I am trying to eain Susan.' 'She's your's' phoued the old manti regardless of the bystanders, or the court, which baving now an inklipg of the matter, gave loose rein to their jubilant feelings. How Susan felt, however, can be better imagined than described. She blushed. like one of her mother's peonies, and l4as tily hid her face in her veil. When the merriment had subsided, and old Lippe had secured his equa nimity, the happy attorney proceed ed, and finally made so clear a caeo for his involuntary client, as caused the judge to dismiss the suit. The old man left the court in triumph, and with his hired hand, proceeded forthwith to the ordinary's office, where a license was procured The judge gave the court a short recess d united the happy pair in the bonds o4f matrimony. Since that event, Mr. Lippe h-is changed his views on educational umtters. A Few Terrible Counts Against the Republican Party. The Hon. George F. Hoar, a Re publican member of Congress, closed his speech on the lelknap impeach-, ment, as follows : "My own public life has b)een a brief and insignificant one, extending little beyond the duration of a single term of Senatorial office, but in that' .rief period I have seen five judges of a high court, ofjthe United States driven from office by thi eats of in peachmhent for cor uption or mal administration. I have heard the taunt from friendliest lips, that when the United States presented herself in the East to take part with the civiied world in generous competi tion in the arts of life, the only pro duct in which she surpassed all oth.. era l)eyond question. was her corrup tion.. I have Seen in the State, in the Uiion, foremost in power and wealth, four judges of her courts imnpenaced for corruption and. the political adistiifi'Sra~tin of her chief city become a by-word throughout the world..

We behold the noblest products of a hundred years of changeful history, but while upholding the bond of our Union and the great charter of these our rights, it behooves a free peo ple to practice also that eternal vigilance which is the price of liberty. Reform is necessary to 1 ebuiid and estatablish in the heart's of the whole people the Union eleven years ago happily rescued from the danger of a corruj,t cen tralism, which, after inflicting upon ten States the rapicity of carpet-bag tyrannies, has honeycombed the otlices of the Federal Government itself with incapacity, waste and fraud, infected States and munici plalities with the contagion of mis i-ule, and locked fast the property of an industrious peoplle. In the i dpIparalysis of hard times r<.form is necesisary to establish a sna currency. restore the public credit and maintain. the NatiAnal honor. We denounce the failure for all these elevea years to make good the promiso of the legal tender 1 Rotes which are a changing, stanudura of value in the haids' of the peoy&i; a and the nonlaymnent of - which is a disregard of the plighted. fuith of they I nation.. We denounce the improvi. deuce which in eleven years of pence - has taken from the people in I Federal taxes thirteen times bMleI whole amount. of the legal mnotes, and squandered four times this stmn in useless expenses without accumn. lating any reserve for their redemp tion. Wo deno(unce the fint.itial imbecility and imnoi'alfty of that party which during eleven years of ped'6 lias made no adlvance toward resumption ; that instead has ob structed resumption by wasting our resources and exhausting all our surplus income, and while annually professing. to intend a speed'y re turn to specie' paymebstsf has annu ally enacted- fresh hindranices there to. As such a hindrance we- de-. nounce the resumpion~ clause ofI the act of 1875;- and we have de muand its repeald. We demand a judicious system of preparation by p~ublic economiusts by oflicial trenehmnents anmd by wise finance, which shall enable the ination- to assure the whole world of its. i en feet ability and its perfect readiiness. to umeet any of its pronmtises at the call of the creditor entitled to pay ment. 'We believe such a system well devised, and, above tall, entrusC* ed to competcnt hands for execun tion, creating at no time an artincidi scarcity of currency and at no time mshnming the p~ublic miind into a withdrawval of that vast manchinevy~ of credit by which ninety fivei per cent. of all business transactions twre performe.- A system' opohr public and insp~iring general confidence would, fromui the da~y of its adoption, bring healing in its wvings to all our: harassed'imll~Wstry, and set in, motion' the wheels of commerce, ma~nufac tures and the mnechan~ical arts res.ore- em'ploymneint to labor and renew in all its na~tionail source the pr'osperity of the people.
