pairing. THE FIRST ICE CREAM. f The following article appeared a few years ago in 11 The Daguerreotype," a periodicalof short-lived existence, condncted by the'Rev. Dr. Freeman, who died some time since, Bishop of Arkansas and Texas. . ? "If he knew to whdm.or to what, t^^ive credit for'the following hit,, tfe would certainly do it. Itcomes to as without any intimation of its origin, and we give it place a$ ludicrously characteristic.

I was down there in '38, to see a 'ittle about my gfcin' to the Legislature, and such a time as I had you never heer'd tell 'on. Did I ever tell you about the ide cream scrape I bad ?" We answered in the negative, and he resumed : . * '* "Wall, I'd bin down thar two or three days pokin' in every hole, an' tho't I'd seed everything thar was to be seen. But one day towpr's sun down I was goin' by a shop in Middle street that looked wonderfully slick?there was all manner of candy an' pepperments an' what nots at the windows. An' then there wer signs with gold letters oa to them, hangin' round the door, tellin' how they sold Soda, Mead, an' Ice Crfcam thar. I says to myself, I have heern a good deal about ice oream, and now if f don't see what they*s made Of. So I puts my hands into my pockets, an' walked in kinder careless, and says to a chap standin' behind the counter? "Do you keep any ioe creams here ?" . "Yes, sir,'* says he, how much '11 you have 1" I considered a minit, says I?"a pint, sir." a vnnnrr feller's face swelled out, and he J o liked to have laughed right oat, but arter a ^hilc he asked? v "Did you say a pint, sir?" "Sartin," says I, "but p'raps you don't retail, so I don't mind takin' a quart." "Wal, don't you think the feller snorted right out. Tell yer whatr it made we feel sorta pisun, an' I gave him a look that made him look sober, in about a minit; an' whtfn I clinohed my fist and looked so at him (here Mr. Spike favored us with a most diabolical expression,) ha hauled in-his horns about the quickest, an' handed me a pinf/o the stuff as perlite as could be. Wall, I tasted a mouthful of. it, an' found it cool as the north side of o' Bethel hill in January. I'd half a mind to spit it out, but jest then I seed the confectioner chap grionin' behind the door, which riz my spunk.- Gall smash it all, thinks I, I'll not let that white-livered monkey think I'm afeared?jl'll eat the plaguey stuff if it freezes my innards. I tell yer what, I'd rather skinn'd a bear or whipp'd a wild oat, but I went k. I eat the whole in about a minit. "Wall in about a quarter of an hour I began to'fed kinder gripy here," continued Ethan, pointing to the lower parts of his stomach, "an' kept on feelin'ne better fast, J till at last it seemed as though I'd got" a steam ingen sawin' shingles in me. I sot { down on a cheer, and bent myself up like a nut-cracker, thinkin' I'd grin and bear it; but I couldn't set still?I twisted and squirmed about like an angle worm on a hook, till at last as the chap as gin me the cream, who had been lookin' on sniggerin' says to me, . f "Mister," says he, "what ails yef?" ?"Ails me !" says I, "that ere stuff of yourin is freezin' up my daylights," says I. ? ? v " I ou eat loo mucLi, buyout. t, "1 tell yer I didn't" screemed I; "I know what's enough and what's too much, without askin' you/and if you don't leave off snick' erin' I'll spile yer face." "He cottoned right down, and said he didn't mean any hurt, and asked me jf I hadn't better take some gin. I told him I would. So I took a purty good horn, and left the shop. "Arter I got out," continued Ethan, "I felt better foi a minit or so, but I hadn't gone fur afore the gripes took me again; so I went into another shop and took some more gin; then I sot down on the State House steps, and there I sot and sot, but didn't feel a mite better. I begun to think I was goin' to kick the bucket, and then I thought of father and mother and of old Spanker? that's father's hoss?and when I thought that I should never see 'em again, I fairly blubbered. But then I happened to look up, and see a dozen boys grinnin' and larfin' at me, I tell yer what. it riz my dander?that had got down to nero?rite up agin. I sprang at'm like a wild cat, hollerin' out I'd shake their tarnal gizzards out, and the way the little devils scampered was a caution to nobody. But after the 'citement ov the race was over, I felt wus agin, and I could'nt help groanin' an' schreechin' as I went along. "At last I thought I'd go to the theatre, but afore I got there, the gripes got so strong that I had to go behind a meetin' house and lay down and holler. Arter awhile I got up and went into a shop and eat a half dollar's worth of biled isters with four pickled cowcumbers, and wound up with a glass of T j brandy. Tnen 1 went imu tue meanc ?uu seed the plays, but I felt so bad that I could not see any fun in 'em, for I don't think the isters and the cowcumbers done me any good. I set down, laid down, and stood up, but still it went on, gripe, gripe. I groaned all the time, and once in a while I was obliged to screech kinder easy. Every body starred at me, and somebody called out, "torn him out I" once or twice. But, at last, just as the nigger Orthello was goin' to put the piller on his wife's face to smother her, there cum sioh a twinge through me, that I really thought I was buratin' up, and I yelled out?"Oh dear ! Oh scizzors !" so loud that the old theatre rung egain. Such a row you never seed; the nigger dropped the pillar, and Deuteronomy?or what you call her there?his wife, jumped off the bed and run, while everybody in the theatre was all npina muss, some larfin', some sweariu.' The upshot of it was, the perlice carried me out of the theatre, and told me to make myself scarce. "Wall, as I didn't feel any better, I went into a shop close by, and called for two glasses of brandy; arter swallerin' it, I went hum to the tavern. I sat down by the winder, and tried to think I felt better, but 'twas no go; that blasted old ingine was still wallerin' away inside; so I went out and eat a quarter's worth of isters and a piece of mince pie. Then I went back and told the VAanor T fplf. bindersinlf. anrlthmmlif MYOiU AWf/w A -v.- ? j I'd take some Castor ile, a mouthful of cold ineafc, and a strong glass of whiskey punch, and then go to bed. He got the fizins, Which I took and went to bed. "But, I tell yer what, I had a rather poor night. Sometimes I was awake groanin', and when I was asleep Fd better bin awake, for I had such powerful dreams. Sometimes I tboughtl was skinnin' a bear, aud theu by somfr bocuspocas 'twould all chaoge t'oher side to, and the tarnal critter would be' a sklnnin' me. "Then, again, Fd dream that I was rolling jlogs with the boys, and jest as Fd be a shoutin' out?"now then !?here she goes !" every thing would get reversed agin?I was a log, and the boys were pryin' me up with their handspikes. Then I'd wake.up and screech and roar?then off to sleep again?to dream that Spanker had run away with me, or that father was whipping me or some-other plaI rnioc thinrr-till niarnin'.*-' . . b I ? "When Igofcup, I hadn't any appetite for breakfast, and the tavern keeper told me that if I was goin' to carry on screamin' and groanin' as I had the night afore, my room was better than my company. "I hain't," Said Mr. Spike, in conclusion ? "I hain't bin to Portland since, but if I live to be as old as Methusalem, I shall never forget that all-fired Ice Cream."' HOW I COATED SAL. Well, you, see arter the "poker" sorape, me and Sal got along only midlin well, for sum time, tell I made up my mind to fetch. things to a hed, fur I loved her narder and harder every day an I had a idea that she had a sorter sneakin kindness fur me, but how to doo*the thing up rite pestered me orful?I got sum luv book, and red how the fellers got. down on thar marrerbones and talked like polks, an how the gals they wud gently fall inter the feller's arms, but sumhow or other, that way did'ntsute my notion. I axed mam how dad coated her, butshesed % ' it had bin so long, that she d forgot all about it, (Uncle Jo allers sed mam dun all the coatin.) At last I made up my mind tu go it blind, for this thing was*feirly a consumin my innards, so I goes over to hfer daddy's (that's Sals,) and when I got thar, I sot like, like a fool, thinkin'<-how to begin. * Sal sed sumthin was a truDien uv me an ses.

She sed this, she did, the deer sly ereeter?she noed what was the matter all the time mity well, and wus jist a'tryjn to fish it out, but I wus so forgone, I didn't see the pint.

Now this wur orful fur a feller ded in luv,so arter a while I tries another shute.

This sorter got my dander up, so I hitched my cheer up close to hern, an shet my ise and sed, s " Sal, yu are the very gal I've been a handkerin artcr fur a long time, 1 luv yu all over from the sole uv yore hed to the foot uv yore crown, an I dont keer who nose it, un ef you say so, we'll be.jined on together in thq holy ,h.ons uv matrimony, epluribusunum, world without end, amen" ses I, an feltsoreleved?with that she fetched a sorter screem, an artera while ses? Ses she " Peter " " What Sally" ses I. "Yes" ses she, a hidin uv her putty face behind her hans. You may depend on it I felt good"Glory! Glory !" ses I. "I must holler, Sal, or I'll bust wide open. Hoorah fur Hooray?I kin jump over a ten rale fense, I kin do enny an everything that enny uther feller ever could, would, should or orterdo." With that I sorter sloshed myself down bi her, and clinched her, and seeled the bargain with a kiss, an sich a kiss?talk about yore merlarsis, talk about yore blackbery jam, you couldn't a got me to cum a nigh, that wud all a tasted sour arter that. Oh, these wimin, how good an how bad, how hi an how lo thay kin make a feller feel ?Ef Sal's daddy had'nt a hollered out, it . wur time fur all onest fokes to be in bed, I do beleove I'd staid thar all nite. You orter a seed me when I got home. I pulled mam outer bed and I bugged her, I pulled aunt Jane outer bed an bugged her. I roared, I snorted, I cavorted, I laffed an hollered, I I frnde like a rooster. I dansed about, an cut up more capers than yu even herr tell on, till dad thought I wus crazy, and got a rope too ti me with. ?Dad," ses I, "I'm agwine to be marrid." " Marrid !" bawled dad.

With that I ups and telle em all about it frum AlphertoOmeger. Thay wus all mitely pleesed, and rnity willin, an I went too bed as proud as a young rooster with his fust spurs.

D. TOWNSEND, On being Jbstnlicd as M. W. P. ofMbe Nationnl Division, of the Sons of Temperance of North America. Most Worthy Brother*That I should express to you profouod gratitude for this proud elevation, and promise to discharge the duties of this high office with all the ability and fidelity whioh I-gm capable of exercising, is what you have a right to ex* pect. But I desirt from the depths of my * * * -- ? ? h*AMAMAAioffnn neart to assure you 01 my mgu app>cb>owUU of the honor. If, in my past life, ambition has prompted me Xo cech advancement, and to indulge in aspirations for distinction and glory in any of the social, political, moral, or religious associations to which I have belonged,. it is certainly in this benevolent enterprise, the executive management of which has just been confided toniy hands. To preside over, and to direot a movement so vast in its extent, so pure, so exalted and so philanthropic in its aims, purposes and accomplishments, is a position of trust, honor, responsibility and power, which it is difficult to over-estimate. ' w ' ' ". . s ? But-if, from this proud elevation, surveying the immense territory, and thousands and tens of thousands subject to the jurisdiction of this aagust body, pride or vanity should temptingly approach, the weighty responsibilities of the position will instantly subdne ajjd rebuke such selfishness, and let down the incumbent to a humiliating sense of his utter inability to do justice to the office. If being actively identified with the Temperance movement in this oountry for nearly a quarter of a century?with the Order of the Sons of Temperance for nine years;, if a thorough understanding of the Constitutions,^ Eulesand Usages of the Order; and a lovej for the Cause so intense and fuH as to run over all State, and eveh National lines?are qualifications for the office to which you have prompted me, then perhaps to this exteBt I may have deserved your confidence and] favor. . .. ' b . . Nor do I regard it improper, or indelicate, to avow my exemption from local or sectional prejudice, and from deceit in grasping cordially by the hand all whose "names arc enrolled among the champions of Temper* ] ane," even if this circle of sobriety shall be enlarged until it shall embrace the entire Brotherhood of Man 1 Nevertheless, I feel an oppressive sense of my unworthiness to occupy a place which has been filled heretofore by some of the most distinguished champions of Temperance living, or that have ever lived. 4 , t. ?J Indeed, when I consider the history of this Order?the illustrious names that adorn our records?the whirlwind like velocity with which the Continent was swept by the irresis tible power of this movement in its'" early career, aod then the calm whiob followed the storm?when from the vast wmy-that fiocked' to our standards origitiallj, hundreds of thousands deeeTted, leaving our attenuated rank's weak, dejected and almost lifeless?when f ^member the struggle for existence that followed for years?"redeeming the time" by improving the defects io our Ritual, tho Con stitution, Rules and Usages of tho Order, and that we seem but just now to have re solved by common consent to rally again around our once victorious Banners,?I say, in view of all this,- ^ftfwbuld Be much more agreeable and consistent with my retiring disposition to follow the lead of ether mover accomplished and renowned Captains; ' ~ Having been designated, however, by the suffrages of this body to assume the direction of affairs, I will not decline the responsibilty, hut relying on the assistance of the other experienced officers,, and the united support of otfr entire membership, I will address myself energetically to the task, assured. that the partiality of those who confided to me this great trust will look indal gently and forgivingly on my weaknesses, errors, and short comings. At the very beginning of my administrar tion it may be well to announce tnat it is my purpose to go to work unassumingly, patiently, systematically heartily, and devotedly, to establish the Order on the substantial and ample foundations already laid?satisfied with our present machinery and materials to build up gradually a superstructure, which, as it. grows and towers upward toward Heaven, shall challenge in the future, if it does not now, the respect and admiration of Christendom! It is unnecessary in this presence and on this occasion, that I should commend the Order as the grand instrumentality on which we should rely for the accomplishment of our Heaven-directed purpose. It has defects, perhaps, but the power reposes in this body to -improve them all, as time, observation and experience shall point them out and suggest the remedy. Let us all. therefore, resolve anew, as we have often heretofore heartily pledged ourselves, to return home to our respective circles of influence, with a fixed and abiding determination to "promote the harmony, advance the interests, and to preserve unsullied on our part the reputation of the Sons of Temperance." Satisfied ourselves with a system whose "central principle is total abstinence from all intoxicating drinks as a -beverage, and whose prominent characteristic is a self-denying devotion to the good of mankind," let us not divide nor compromise our allegiance to this cause by embracing less perfect schemes, having the same object in view, driftiug about on the currents of popular anxiety for somethiug novel and attractive only so long as it is new?but throwing our united energies and strength into this deep and all-sufficient channel, let us roll on in one solid, swelling, irresistible volume, sweepiug by this mighty "Father of waters" every obstacle that shall feebly oppose the spread.and triumph of Temperance principles universally.?Crusader. A TOUCHING INCIDENT. Dear Crusader ;-*Amongst the many incidents of the late Session of the National Division, there was one so touching and impressive, that I cannot forbear the attempt to sketch it for your readers. The officers, with the exception of the presiding officer, had been installed. The Most Worthy Patriarch, M. D. McHenry, directed the presentation of his successor, Bro. B. D. Townsend of South Carolina, M. W. P. elect, for obligation and investure. After a most feeling and happy charge to the inooming officer, Bro. McHenry vacated the seat he had so ably and worthily filled, and descending to the floor evidently much affected, proceeded to the investure. And here, Bro. Crusader, let me describe to you the men, in order that your readers may in some degree realize the scene. Bro. McHenry/is about sixty years years of age, of large and powerful frajpe, and noble port and bearing, while his successor, Brother Townsend, is probably about thirty-five or eight years old, tall and slender, yet dignified and manly?and whose whole outline of figure could be traced agaiust. the majestic form of - bis elder brother.before him. And thus they stood, fitting representatives of the 'different fcpochs of their election?the one of giant form and strength who had nobly withstood the shock of adverse storms that-had been beating against our cause and Order," and-bad roll* ed back the waves tbat had been Warring .moin.it tie htlila ?).? nltior CBr]1 fPtirRSfiUted "S"""1" ?' .?- ?? VUSV-? -^r the prompt and daring leader, quick to take advantage of the fortunate oriah now.presented to lead our troops to victory. Bru. Mc Henry proceeded to the investors, and in deep and solemn tones pronounced, his successor 11 Most Worthy Patriarch of the Order of the Sons of Tcviperancc of North Avierica," then dropping his hands upon the shoulders of his younger brother, raised his venerable head whitened with the frost of sixty winters, and uttered one of the most solemn, affecting and touching invocations mine ear has ever listened to. There was scarce a dry eye in that assembly, and the responsive Amen 1. came from many sympathizing hearts; and while the two Past Most Worthy Patriarchs present, escorted Bro. McHenry across the Hall to hia post of honor, with his head bowed upon his breast and his whole frame trembling with emotion, the silent orisons of many a heart in that assembly went up for the contipued life and health and happiness of that true and faithful Son of Temperance. Who can doubt the result when Such noble spirits lead tHe charge in this great battle of humanity! A Delegate.
