Humorous fjpattwent. j A YALUABLE OPINION. He was & long man with painfully thin a legs. There was a general appearance about d him as of a man hankering for the calm sol- ai itude of a jail. He went into, a Main street 81 saloon, and shambling up to the bar, said: 01 "Gimme whiskey." ti The bar-keeper filled the order promptly. * While he was returning the decanter to its k place, the long man emptied the glass, and P then backing up to the stove, spread his coat ti tails with his hands, and proceeded to enjoy h the general warmth. k "Here you!" sung ouu the bar-keeper; fif- *1 teen cents to pay." P "Grant had it two terms, and that's enough," a said the long man. b "'Tain't enough to settle for that drink," d said the bar-keeper, "and now you ante." & "There's Blaine with his amnesty bill, but a: that won't help him," contined the long man. ^ "It won't help you to pay for that drink," *1 ooi/1 tko Kar.lraaruip Kflmnninrr (n oef marl DD OMIU VUV VlM'awiAMj uvgiuuujg w gvv "Come down with the stamps." a1 "Morton's financial record is bad, an' that v knocks him," said the long man, not heeding ^ the interruption. t* "It ain't a circumstance to the way I'll ^ knock you," if you don't pool down for that glass of whiskey," exclaimed the bar-keeper, angrily. ai "Tilden has done big things, but he don't ?* stand no sight," said the long man. ** "I guess be stands as much sight as I do of H* getting my pay," retorted the bar-keeper. ^ "Charles Francis Adams would run well if 8( things worked right," said the long man. d "Oh, cheese that!" said the bar-keeper, c< wrathfhlly. ' ^ "Rag-baby Allen's chances ain't worth a a cuss," said the long man. " "He's worth a darned sight more'n you," broke in the bar-keeper. "What in thunder are you trying to get through your miserable u carcass ?" d "What am I trying to get through me ?" ^ inquired the long man. 18 "That's what I said," replied the bar-keeper. e' "Why i us' this," said the long man: "Take 01 Grant an Blaine an' Morton an' Tilden an' P Adams an' Allen an' the hull kerboodle of 11 'em, an' I don't believe there is one of 'em * would ask me to pay for that glass of whis- tj key." The bar-keeper reached swiftly over and crabbed a class. There was a dingy-looking . O ? o Otf W _ streak across the shop, marking the coarse of 11 the long man. The glass crashed against the 0 wall about six feet from the floor, just where 6 the head of the long man with the thin legs ? should have been. But it wasn't there. Its " owner had vanished.?Rockland Courier. 3 82 "SPOSEN A CASE." ,, b "Midas! I want to 'sposen a case to you, o: an' want you to gim me the gospel truth ob f( your 'pinion 'bout the matter." e: That's the manner in which one of Wash- 61 ington's dusky damsels put it to her adorer last evening. 01 "Now, Midas, you knows, you'se tole me 8' more times than you'se got fingers and toes, d as you lubbed me harder than a marble-top w wash-stand, and that I'se sweeter to you a' than buckwheat cakes and lasses foreber." w "Midas, dis am only a 'sposen case, but I want you to 'sposen jus as hard as ifn 'twas a sho- al nuff one. . w "'Sposen me an' you was gob on an excur- T sion down de ribber ?" S' "Yes," broke in Midas, "down to Moun' & Wernon." tl Any wha's 'tall, down de ribber. Midas, I' kin you swim ?" " "No, Luce, I'se sorry to 'form you dat de 18 only drekshon what I kb circumstanshiate F fru de water am de bottom." 3' "Well, den, as I was 'latin. 'Sposen we f? was on de boat, gliding lubbinly an' harmunly n( down de bussum ob de river's stream, de moon ^ was lookin' shbinly down 'pon the smoke- M stack, and you was sottin rite up to me jes, 01 (slide up here closer, an' lem me show you ai how), dat's de way."

'Sposen when dat biler busted, we bof w went up in de air, come down in de ribber, w an' when we arriv in de water we found de only thing lef ob dat boat was one piece o' board dat wasn't big enuff to hold bof, w but we bof grab it; now, Midas, wud you let go dat board, or wud you put me off and took it all yourself? Dat's de question what I'm cc a 'sposen." B1 "Luce, kin you swim?" he asked after P" hesitating a few "moments. , "No, Midas, ob course not. You know I ! can't swim." ? "Well, den, Luce, my conshehenshus, 'pin- 1C ion ob de whole matter am, dat we won't go on no'scursions." A Painter's Imagination.?John Jarvis awas a native of Dublin, where he practiced, the art of painting on glass for some time, and j1 then removed to .uonaon, wnere ne soon ~ gained for himself a high reputation. The 11 following anecdote is related of him : When * the Bacchanalian propensities of Jarvis had 11 rendered him rather an unequal if not an unsafe artist, he was employed by a gentleman " to paint his wife?a miracle of plainness? 88 under stipulation that a pint of wine at a sin- j* gle sitting must be the extent of his potations. Jarvis assented, and in a short time produced 81 a perfect JafrrimiU of the lady. * On exhibiting it to the husband, he seemed tl disappointed. "Couldn't you have done it," w said he to the painter, "a little less?that is, couldn't you have given it a little more?" j* "If you expect me," said Jarvis, seeing the husband's drift at once, "if you expect me c' to make a handsome portrait of your wife, I must have more than a pint of wine at a sit- ^ ting. I couldn't get up imagination enough to make her good-looking under a quart at the very least!" e: ? P, MI8TAKE OF A DRUGGIST'8 DAUGHTER.? aJ A young woman on West Madison street, h having taken a course of chemistry, has been is assisting her father in his drug store. The ti other day there was a prescription for some B simple medicine for a sick baby, and the next Ii day baby's father was sent down street to buy tr a pony coffin. The chemist was requested to w rise to a personal explanation. "Great Je- w hosophat! he said, looking at the powder, lc "why, there's arsenic in this! It ought to have b been bicarbonate of soda ? Eliza how is this ?" is "Oh, pa!" replied the unmoved assistant, "we sj had no soda, and arsenic was the nearest h shade that matched!" n< 9* A stump speaker, in dealing with the T "modern physical degeneracy of women," ex- ri claimed: "We must take good care of our tl grandmothers, for we shall never get any- si more!" It is so with mothers also, as a Con- It necticut merchant was surprised to hear the tl other day. His pastor was visiting him and fi: his wife, and after warning her that she must w take better care of her health, he concluded tc a! i_? J J inus: "xvememoer, my uetu mauttui, jruur family. Your husband might replace you; J but your children never could!" sa ? o< A Full Description.?A resident of 01 Detroit lost a fine rooster from his coop the m -other day, and believing that some one in the a neighborhood stole it, the case was given to a o1 detective. Theoficer hasn't found the chick- r< en yet, but is on trail with the following a description; "About a foot high; broad m across the back; one squint eye; walks very g| fast; full weight; spots on the body; always si at home nights; not very social; good-sized oi feet; fond of going off by himself to sit down a and think." k a Ifrietiffittal ? tjiwtwent. Treat Your Animals Kindly.?Some ten are so indifferently constituted that they o not really know how to treat the domestic oimals under their control. If the team gets Ailed they think that the only way to get lit of the rut or mire is to take a recess of ro or three minutes of hard swearing, after hich a cudgel is procured and the oaths are iterspersed with whacks on the backs of the oor brutes who hare been given more than ley can do. A cow is being milked, and she as sore teats. She endur38 the process of diking from rude and careless hands until le tingling pain causes her to lift her foot? erhaps kick?and in Bome cases to upset the lilk. A few or several kicks with a heavy Dot, and sometimes accompanied with pouning, eases the mind of the milker, and he oes to work again milking the frightened aimal, but does not, naturally, get the quanty of milk from her he should. Going to le house in a bad hu&or over the loss of bis tilk, he does not see the faithful watch-dog t the door and nearly Btumbles over him. A igorous kick with his boot seems to relieve le man's anger very materially, as he rautsrs, "Now, there, you got it!" and passes in> the house. The poultry gets into the garen through a gate which he himself so careissly left open. With an exclamation of Qger, he picks up a stout stick and a few eod-sized stones, and sallies into the garden > drive out the intruders. A few well-direc>d shots clear the garden of the fowls, with le exception of the few he'maimed. And > it goes with all the stock ; yet John woners why all the stock run away from him or )werin fear when he is around, and cannot link how it is that the poultry will come on hop, skip and a iump to eat out of his lite brother Willie s hand whenever he cftlls mm, as will all the other stock. John says, The animals shall mind mfe,'' and uses force nworthy of the brutes he tries to bring uner his complete subjection, forgetting that indness, though it binds with silken cords, far more powerful and durable than can per be the obedience produced through fear f punishment. Being an ardent lover of ets, I so thoroughly detest cruelty to anitals that I will not consider that I have ritten in vain if it will but lessen even a the of the cruelty so often practiced and so ttle noticed.? Cor. Ohio Farmer. Feeding Horses.?In regard to the feed?g of horses, I think it requires a good deal f judgment More horses and neat cattle die eery year from excess of feeding than from ny other cause. Some horses thrive on very ttle food, while others of the same size reuire double the quantity to keep them in the ime condition. The reason of this is a morid appetite in the one case, and a difference f temperament in the other. In my opinion, >r the ordinary business horse that does not tceed a thousand pounds in weight, the propr and sufficient amount of food for him each leal is ten and one-half quarts of oats and Q6 quart of cracked or whole corn, with bout ten pounds of good hay during the ay; this regularly fed keeps the horse in good orking condition, and the amount of repair bout the body ib sufficiently greater than the aste. Feeding oats three times a day does not ;ree with all horses. I can relate instances here horses have been fed with double the uantity of oats they have corn, and would row Door everv dav. when bv changing the lod a little, say two parts oats and one corn, ley would seem to gaiu from the first day. 1 my opinion, meal shottld never be fed to le horse that does fast work, and I am susdned by the best writers on this subject, or the horse that does very slow work, a fair lantity of meal fed judiciously is well enough, r they have ample tihio to digoet it. It is i doubt very nutritious, makes blood very st, imparts a rich glow to the coat, etc. [eal requires double the time for it to thorlghly digest that other kinds of food require, id consequently should be fed sparingly. A irse that has been reduced in flesh and ?irits by long illness, gains rapidly on the llowing: Take two quarts of fine feed and le quart of linseed meal cooked, morning and ight, and ten quarts of oats at noon, preired in the same manner; cooking the food lakes it more easily digested and quite as utritious. The horse's stomach will digest a irtain amount of food, and from that a cerlin amount of nutritious element will be deved; beyond that you are gradually injurig the power of the organs, and as a result ill come frequent attacks of colic, which ill ultimately destroy the animal. Barn, Stable and Yard.?A farmer ho has profited by experience writes this nsible paragraph: "In building a new barn, would study to put in all the windows I >uld possibly get in, of course not making a *een house of it, but as many as most folks lit into dwelling houses. It is so much betr doing the work in a light barn than in a irk one, cattle are more easily taken care r, and are more quiet and better contented i a light place than in a dark one." "As for norses nooning," says a clever wriir, "I would rather my team should go irough the day without dinner, than to be [lowed only sufficient time to swallow it, if ley are to be put to heavy work. In fact, I ave an idea, from experience with a horse tarn when driving upon the road all the me, that they had better have an hour's rest ithout dinners than to have an hour to eat t, and then be put directly at work. I have sen many teams upon the road every day lat were never fed at noon, and they kept in i good condition and were able to travel as tany miles in the afternoon and carry as eavy loads as those which were fed at noop ad then put immediately at work again, he noon feed must be carried indigested un 1 night, and can be carried easier in the agon than in the horse's stomach. The ime reasoning may not hold good with oxen, lasmuch as their work is not, or should not e, so rapid or hard as to prevent them from hewing their cuds as they work." The Best Gait the Horse has is the 'ast Walk.?A slow walking horse is an bomination. If you ride or drive him he chausts your patience. If he is ysed to low or harrow, or go on the road, he mopes long at a snail's pace. He does only about alf the work of the rapid walker. If time money, you make money because you save me,,by having a horse that walks fast. Ireeders should pay attention to this matter, a selecting a stallion to breed from, by all leans select one that can walk fast. A slow alking stallion will be Hkely to beget slow alking colts ; while the stallion that has a >ng, rapid, spirited stride will be likely to eget colts with a similar action. Then there a great deal in breeding to a horse with lirit and ambition. These cold-blooded orees will beget cold-blooded colts. The earer you can approach the thoroughbred, /en for obtaining a fast walker, the better, here is game there, and spirit, and endutnce, and stamina, and style. There are le neat, bony heads, the prominent eyes, the nail ears, the capacious nostrils, the large ings and chests, the well-developed muscle, le bones as dense as ivory. Breed large, tie mares to thorough-bred horses, and yon ill get colts that you will not be ashamed > have your friends see. I6T A writer in the Florida Agriculturist iys that kerosene will relieve the irritation icasioned by poison from ivy in forty mintes, and eradicate the poison entirely in as lany hours. With the point of the finger or so ft brush rob a small portion of the oil rer the places where the eruption appears, ipeating the application three or four times day. Relief from the itching will be aliost immediate and the cure certain and >e6dy. Other cutaneous diseases, he adds, ich as ring-worm, itch and the lighter type f tetter, can be cured by the same treatient, and the minutest drop of kerosene will ill bedbugs quicker than lightning. fkadiag the <fatrhatb.' CONDUCTED BT REV. ROBERT LATHAN. ADMIRAL HOPE AND THE SWEARER. t Admiral Hope's Christian firmness, iB re- " buking swearing and improper language when ^ uttered in his presence, i? familiar to many. g Not many years back a gentleman in a Lon- eI don omnibus was using very violent language, a swearing and taking the name of Christ in ai vain, when he was quickly rebuked and re- e: quested to desist by an elderly gentleman sitting opposite. The first named having re- P sented the interference, the old officer added, f "Well, sir, I am extremely sorry you. resent ^ my words, simply requesting you to forbear insulting a very dear and precious name ^ which I honor and love; and I can only say 0] that if you are dead to all feeling or consid- tl eration of common courtesy, and will persist ti in using the language you have done, you will p compel me to do that which I shall be sorry is to be obliged to do." u Upon this the angry man broke out afresh 81 and defied him, when the admiral stopped the n omnibus and got out, the other watching him, a expecting that he would call a policeman; 0] but seeing him walk quietly away, he remark- pi ed to another passenger about his imperti- 8l nence, when the person whom he addressed l asked if he knew who it was that had been w induced to remonstrate with him. He replied cl "No; nor do I care, except that he was very H impertinent for threatening me in that way." w The other remarked that he was mistaken, for 0 there had been no threat, but a meek and ai courteous remonstrance; that the man was a most kind and benevolent man and a gallant officer, who was quite incapable of a mean act. t> u "What right had he to threaten me? Did P he not say he would do something if I did not 41 desist?" said the other. cj "Yes," replied the gentleman; "but that 11 was no idle threat, and he did what he said he would be obliged to do." V "And what was that?" asked the angry ? man. ' u "Why, get out and walk, which his age and v infirmities would hardly allow him to do, for * he spends a great part of his income in sue- t] coring the afflicted and the destitute, and he c would not like to throw away a sixpence." n "You don't mean to say that was what he n meant?" asked the angry man. "What is t hisname?" u "I am quite positive it was all he meant," p replied the other; "and his name is Admiral ] Hope?a true-hearted Christian man." The angry man looked puzzled, thoughtful, ? and at last cried out, "God forgive me I What {l a fool I have been ! Give me his address, in al case I should miss him." He stopped the om- ? nibus and jumped out to seek his faithful re- h prover, adding that he hoped it would make % a new man of him, for he never should forget S the lesson to the last day of his life. This ? anecdote was related by the gentleman him- ** self, who became a humble follower of the P Lord Jesus, but who has since gone to rest, ^ trusting only in that blessed name which he ti had so blaspheqaed and lightly spoken of. ri THE SUBSTITUTE. a! During the late war between France and tl Germany, a summons was sent to Germans residing in England to take their place with J1 the troops before Paris. A gentleman at that tr time was walking along the streets of London ? when he met a German friend. Surprised to see him there, he stopped him, and asked him . how was it he was not in France. v "Oh! I am dead!" was his answer. "Dead ? ti Tell me what you mean," said his friend. "I r< will explain to you," said the German. "My ^ name was called, among others, and I thought g: I should have to leave Eugland ; but I bad n do wieh to do bo, a ad I sot to work to find some way by which I might escape. The command was stringent, so that it was impossible to evade it; but at length I found a sub- T stitute, willing, for a sum of money, to take tl my place. I gladly paid the sum down, and P1 saw him off, thankful to know that I was free to remain in England. He had not, bowev- Tl er, been many days with our army when a French shell burst close to where he was stand- Q1 ing, and he was killed. He was there for me; F his death was counted as mine ; so, in the eye of the law, I am dead, and the German na- ri tion has no further claim upon me." tc This is substitution?one man taking the P1 place of another, and answering for him, and af giving his life to the horrors of war in his s stead. 8( Reader, "have you found a substitute ?" ^ You stand before the bar of God condemned v justly for your sins, and only awaiting the ex- ai ecution of the sentence of death. "The soul that sinneth it shall die." "Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things written in the book of the law to do them." J* "Whosoever offendeth in one point is guilty I.0 of all." * You must, in your own person, answer the ai demand of God's holy and just Jaw, or find a substitute. at Can you find one to take your place, and tt ' . i.

She said she m wanted the finest Bible she could get for two dollars. I showed her one at that price. Tt u, suited her, and she said she would take it and ti call in the afternoon for it. She returned in the afternoon looking very sad. She looked at 111 the Bible and asked me if I could not take et less for it. I said "I could not, as we sold K them at cost price." I said, "We have cheap- w er Bibles, and if any one was destitute and bi too poor to purchase, we have Bibles to give." ? She replied, "If you knew the circumstances, * perhaps you would take less than two dollars. 01 This was the kind of Bible that was wanted." She said she came twenty-five miles, and was q acting for a lady friend who was in affluent circumstances before the war ; that she had lost all her Bibles and had not been able to ^ procure one since; that she wanted one so is much, and of the kind selected; had that morning cut her long and beautiful head of hair ^ off, and sent it by her to be sold, and the pro- d ceeds to be invested iu a Bible. That she had M expected to realize at least two dollars for it, e{ and that after visiting every place where they t purchase such articles, she could only realize $1.25, and this was all she could pay." I re- ^ plied, "Most certainly, under such circumstances, the'lady shall have the Bible." I then e? asked her if she had a Bible of her own. D With a good deal of hesitancy she said she 6e bad not. I presented her with a Bible also, bi With many expressions of gratitude she left, declining to give the name of the lady who a bad sold her hair to purchase a Bible.?Cor. of Bible Record. Good Advice.?The best legacy a man ^ can leave to his children, is the ability to take T care of themselves. Fit them for active, re sponsible business, and they have at once an ? income; bnt this income is as much greater in value to them than the same income left In e* money, as activity, and useful employment are p better than idleness, and lounging and dissi- n pation. Give a young man good moral hab* its and a good practical education, (which ^ need not necessarily be acquired at school,) el and he can secure a salary of, perhaps, two or three hundred dollars at first and in sue- ^ cessive years up to a thousand dollar^ He vi is then worth a thousand dollars a year?the interest at 6 per cent, on over sixteen thou- ^ sand dollars, his real value counted in money. But a poor young man who can make a thousand dollars a year is worth far more than a young spendthrift who has sixteen thousand s: dollars, because he is more useful in many other ways, and is making himself happy in- ? stead of miserable. p tt We should be as careful of our words as our actions ; and as far from speaking as from doing ill. e, iTORKVXLLE ENQUIRER.
