5 it editor who wills to please,
IJInui 1.iiinl.lv crawl noon his Seneca.
And kiss the hand that beats him ;
Or if he dare attempt to w?lk,
Must toe thc mark that othera?chalk,
And Cringe to ail that meet him.
Saya one, your subject* aro too grave
Too much morality you have
Too much about religion ;
Give me some witch or wizard tale?,
With slip-shod ghosts, with ?us and ecalea,
Or feathers like a pigeon.
I low to read, another cries.
Those monstrous fashionable Ilea
In other words, those novela,
Composed of kings and queens and lords,
Of border wara and Gothic hordes,
That used to live in hovels.
M*fii . ?. ? ' . '
Sb-no, cries one, we've bod enough
fauch confounded lovesick stuff,
To craso the fair creation ;
Give us some recent foreign news.
Of Russians. Tarka, th? Greeks and Jews,
Or ony other nation.
Ths man of drilled scholastic lore,
Would like to ?ce o littlo more
In scraps of Greek or Latin ;
The merchant* rather have thc price
Of Southern indigo and rice,
Or India silk or satin.
Another cries, I want moro fun,
A witty anecdote or pun,
A rebus or a riddle ;
Some long for missionary news,
And some-of worldly, carnal views
Would rather hoar a liddle.
The critic, too, of classic skill,
Must dip in gall hi? gander quill,
And scrawl against thc paper ;
Of all the literary fools,
Bred in our colleges and school.?,
He cuts tho silliest caner.
Another cric?, I want to sec
A jumbled up varlciy
Variety in all things;
A miscellaneous, hoagc-podgc print,
Composed, I only give thc hint.
Of multifarious Hmall things.
I want some marriage news, soya Miss,
It constitutes my highest bliss,
To hear of weddings plenty ;
For in a limo of general rain
None suffer from a drought, 'tis plain ;
At least not one in twenty.
I want to hear of death, saya one,
Ofpeoplo totally undone,
By losses, fire or fever;
Another answers, full as wise,
I'd rather have the fall and rise
Of raccoon skins and beaver.
Home signify a secret wish
For now and then a savory dish
Of politics to ault them ;
But here iri real with perfect ease,
For shon'd they swear ?hi moon was cheese,
We ?1 ?? et should di spute them.
Or grave or humorous, wild or tame,
I-ofty or low, 'tl? oil tho same,
foo haughty or too humble ;
And every editorial wight
Has naught to do but what is rightr
And let tho grumbler grumble.
HANS AND FRITZ*
Hana and Frita were two Deutschers who
lived aldo by aldo,
Remote from tho world, its deceit and its
pride;
With their pretzels omi beer tho spore mo
ments were spent,
And the fruits of their labor were peaco and
content.
Hons purchased a horso of u neighbor ono
day,
And, lacking a part of tho Geld-aa they
say
Modo a call upon Fritz to solicit a loan,
To help him to pay for his beaut ifni roan.
Fritz kindly consented tho money to lend,
And gave the required amount to hlB friend ;
Remarking-hi? own simple language to
quote
"Bcrnaps lt va? bedder vo moko us a note."
Tho note was drown ap in their primitive
way
"I, Hans, gets from Fritz fcc fly tollors to
day"
When tho question arose, tho note being
made,
"Vieh von holds dot bapcr until lt vas
bald?"
"You geepa dot," says Fritz, "und den you
rlfl know
You owes mo dot money." Soya Hons:
"Dot lah ao;
Dot makes mo remembers I haf dot to bay,
Und I pringo you dor note und der money
some day."
A month had expired when Hans, aa agreed,
Paid back the amount, ond from debt ho
was freed.
8ays Fritz, "Now do', settles us." Hans re
plies, '?Yaw ;
Now who Sa!'es dot boper according by
' law?"
"Igecps dot, now, aind'tit?" soys Fritz;
"den you ace
I alvoys remempera you bold dot to me."
Soya Hans, "Dbl Ish so, it vos now shust so
blain
Dot I knows vot to do von I porrows again."

WAK-El)---A WIFE.
Jabez Screggins was a bachelor of five?
end-forty, stout ia person, rubicund in
visage, and poss ess od of a comfortable ia
como. Having witnessed a brother's
chipv/rcck in matrimonial seas, ho WM
Eomowliat shy of tb?? fair sex. However,
arter spending the greater part of his as
ia tonco in skirmishes with washer-women
and boarding-house keepbi*, he thought
if ho only had a nice wife-a superfino
woman-life , might, etill hold eomo
charms for him : thereupon he began to
think ovar the list of his acquaintances.
Not having mingled mach m feminine
Botdety, he was aarorisad to find that the
number sevt? comprised them all. After
several agitating evenings spent in con
sidering the pro/s and con's of each lady,
ho waa no nearer tho desired! end than
when he began. As a dernier resort, he
concluded to write the name of each
oligiblo upon a piece of paper and place
tho slips within his oigar-casa ; ho would
draw out five, and the remaining two
should decide his fate.
It happened that chance favored Mrs.
Daniel fockard, a widow, fair, fat and
forty,/ and Miss Seraphima Driscoll, a
mature maiden of thirty-eight summen.
Having arrayed himself in his best suit,
being further adorned with a button-hole
Douquet, Mr. Scroaria* sallied forth cn o
pleasent..evening benton conaneaL HA
concluded to call on the widow first;
widows are conceded to be sash charm
log creatures, you h?atr^? tte
relict of tho lamented Daniel was, doubt
lees. Na frills, nor furbelows, on her:
. and, to crown all, she must be a capital
housekeeper, aa she h*d had experience.
Yes, it was better to consider her attrac
tions first. Of ooaree, she would only be
too happy to become Mrs. Seroggins
and evory one knew she o* oed thehouso
in which she lived, and, In addition, a
moderr-to account at tan Wik.

thea? cogitations ho fauna himself at tho
widow'*.domicile? Biogiog she bell, a
. tidy maid servant ushered him into tho
parlor. While walting for the relict ta
appear he took an inventory of her sur
roundings. What simplicity combined
with excellent taste! Really, if that was
vsd ^C=if?& cf 2-Crr. I"., how aiuiabi? did
. che Appear ; bat her eossert failed to im
press ono as favorably ; he looked some
what tuross and gloomy. Well, Jabea had
hoard a report ?jmewhero that the Pack
ards did not live Very happily, owing to
lack of congeniality ; of-course tba fault
*r=s ca, $f i?uts^
Hi? aaditattons were interrupted by
the entrance 40 Mrs. Daniel, who ex
pressed hew^-v.delifhtcd to seo him,
while indulging' in the mental soliloquy :
"I wonder vh^, bringa $hat old chap j
Jwre?" %
After: spending an hour or ao in de-1
Ughtful converso, Mr. Scroggins wended
hu way hoincwurd, thinking what a
charming woman \/a.s Mn*. Packard, and
that chu older . %vViier; wi? somewhat
hasty in his warning concerning that
much abused ci?as,or society; known JU?
Jabez felt that ho had no timo to lose,
rcrjicrr.br ring tho aOvlcut pru Verb, "Maku
hoy while tho sun shines," and his first
call was followed by a scries of otbe/s.
He could not afford to spend time and
money like the young fops who irrev
erently styled him "old fogy." But that
he might not scenj ton pointed in his at
tentions he thought it but fairto give the
/air Seraph i m a a chance. Acting upon
the idea, he called upon the maiden one
Sabbath evening and invited her to
accompany him to hear tho Kev. Spout
well. Thc gushing creature gladly ac
quiesced, for, ?aid sue:
"I du dote upon tho clerical brethren ;
they are such heavenly mortals j they
seem almost too angelic for this vilo
earth."
"That is pretty strong langunge, Miss
Driscoll," answered Jabez, feeling him
, self us good as any parson in the town.
"Dou't you think there are as good lay
men as preachers?"
"La ! Mr. Scroggins, how you do talk."
I Chatting thus on their way to church,
Miss Driscoll thought, "here's a brand to
be plucked from the burning," while Mr.
Hcroggins came to the conclusion that if
this (Ievout creature should happen to
becomo thc partner of his weals and woes,
ho would, in the time between now ana
then, have to mind his n's and (j's.
In her early youth Miss Driscoll had
loved, "not wisely, but too well," in con
sequence of which she considered herself
qualified tu judge ot tho tender passion
in its various phase?. At tho present
time shu was interested iu a certuin
dominie-more zealous ia good words
than workH-in fact, no less a personage
than the Iicv. Spoutweil ; and, as a proof
of her interest, no moro earnest worker
could bo found in thc parish thau she.
As a consequence our boro found that he
had more thna be had bargained for io
tho shapo of ?ewing societies, tea-drlnk
ings. and other mcetiugs for the benefit
of tlie parishioner*, to ull of which he
was pressed into the service as the escort
of the first directress-viz, Miss Seraph!
ma Driscoll.
Jabez, after a short session of .such
mild dissipation, began to lind it some
what monotonous, and thought he would
settle natters by popping thc question to
tho "vldder" before he was a week older.
As if to facilitate his design, he found,
upon his return homo from business one
evening, a dainty missive, the "Jabez
ScroggniH" written unmistakably by ?
lady. Upon opening, ho discovered it tc
bo an invitation from Mrs. Packard tc
spend tho evening, tho following Wed
nesday week, at her home, to meet a few
of her personal friends.
"By Jupiter!" exclaimed Mr. Scrog
gin:;, "ju.; t tho thing I PH fix matters all
right now. I<et me sec," with a medita
tivo air, "which will be the best wuy tc
ask tho nil-important question? I won
der, doe* she admire inc dignified or ten

tho dignified style-ahem : My dca:

of your many sterling qualities, and, ns i

Eriggish ! I'll try style number two

Upon thc eventful evening Mr. Scroc
gins made his entree in Mrs. Packard
parlors, where ho found a scoro of hulk
and gentlemen, with a few only of whoi
was acquainted. By tho time li
began' tpi wonder at tho uan-appearatfc
of nia hostess he beard n slight noiso i
the door and saw tho object of h
thoughts entering tho room, leaning upo
tho ann of a gen t h'm an, who was lookin
at her with the conscious right of po:
session. Jabez thought he had neve
seen the widow looking so well. Sb
was dressed in black velvet, with poit
laco at tho throat, and held the idcutici
bouquot that the admiring Mr. Scroggit
had taken suob, pains to select.

"'My dear Miss Driscoll, I wish ye
would tako os deep an interest in a POI

put neatly, thought Mr. Scroggins.)
"Why, how so, Mr. Scroggius? Pi
my part, I have always found the hcatht
very unappreciative. Really now, wou'
you bollovo it, if you offer them alftf

"Good gracious, Mr. Scroggins, y(

Seraph* with unblushing effrontery-{fo

"1 leave it all to you," answered Sex
phima, hiding ber head on his man
boaoin.
T?iey decided to go to house-keopir.
aa Jabez yearned for the comforts o:
home. And as Scraphima had no. nf
relatives, they were to bo married at );
boarding-place, and immediately rerii
to their own homo, whoro Jabez h
caused an elegant wedding-supper IQ
prepared. As ho .vid to himself:
"A fenow never expects io bo marri
moro than once in a lifo time, so w<
invite a few of onr friends Jtnd do <

The auspicious^ morn dawned brit
^mon.!-!
The prospective bridegroom donned
his new suit, bought for thc occasion,
and spent thirty-five minutes iu ^r^njc
iug his necktie, and alter a'geiiw?ieyr- j
vey ho felt himself completo in every
Earticular. On his way to the carriage
e was surrounded by a crowd of gamins,
and was saluted with the request,
!tSay, boss, give a quarter to drink
yer health?"
Scattering some silver among them ho
entered the coach am1, gave the driver
the address, No. 146 Sycamore avenue.
Leisurely alighting he ascended the ste j M
and rang the door bell. Thc door was
opened by the Indy ?if thc house, who,
upou seeing him, exclaimed :
^'Oh ! Mr. Scroggitii, bo calm ; I dare
say it is a fortunate escape for you."
"What's thc matter?" tusked Jabez,
"Has anything happened to Miss Dris
coll-ia alie aiclc ?"
"Worse, Mr. Hcroggins ! She lias gone
off with thc licv. Ilpoutwcll !"
"How! Where! What?" queried Ja
bez, frantically.
"They were married thia morning at
his aister'?, and have gone on their wed
ding trip."
"Spoutwell ! Why, Spoutwell was to
h ?tve msrried us. And she--'pcr?td?ou<?
creature! Never again will I bolicve in
a woman !"
Entering the coach, Jabez was driven
to what was to have been his wedded
home. There, aa if in mockery, were thc
friends invited to supper. Of course ex
planations werr* given as to thc absence
of thc expected bride, and the guests dis
pt*raed in their ways, chatting freely over
the pretty little scandal. While thc mia
er*bi< host was left to grieve over his
second matrimonial failure-his bridal
toast had turned to funeral meats, and
his desire, for n wife wa* a? though it had
not been.
It was a long time ere Jabez Seroggins
regained the even tenor of his mind ;
and, even yet, nothing can so lacerate his
fcelinga as thc mention of a fascinating
widow, or an enthusiastic devotee.
A Goon MULE STORY.-" Pleasant
Itidcrhoodtt" sends tho following "true
mule story" to tho 6Y. Nickola* Mnyu
zinr :
Thc rescue of a mulo in Bienville
Parish, La., from a well sixty feet deep,
caused so much surprise and interest here
lately that I ? nd an account to you.
It is vouched for by ?onie of thc host
citizens of this place, who witnessed it,
...?id I assuro you it is every word true.
This mulo fell hind feet backward into
ah old dry well sixty feet deep ; it ia
suppose that the edge of the well caved
in with him. All efforts tn rescuo him
wa? fruitless, aa he was completely wedged
in. Finally the owner of tho mule, sup
Flosing that tho poor creature waa severe
y iniured by the fall, decided that il
would be moro merciful to have him
killed than to allow him io starve to
death. Not knowing auy other way of
dispatching him, he hau a cart load of
dirt thrown in upon him. But, instead
of allowing himself to bo buried alive,
his m ules nip quiully ?hook ou thc dirt
I and pressed it down with hia feet, tbUB
raising himself several ?nebea above his
original position. Another load was
thrown in, with tho ?arno result; and
then some one said that if the mule
would continuo tramping down the dirt
it waa possible that he might be extrica
ted; it would bo no barm to try, any
way. Acting cn thia suggestion, all the
farm hands went to work niling tho well,
carefully pouring the dirt in on the sides,
so aa not to hurt the mule. It was slow
work filling that dcop well, but n hearty
interest was awakened by tho persevor
ance with which tho poor animal tram?
pied down tho dirt, and all worked with
willing hands.
Slowly but Burel/, inch by inch, did he
! ascend, until tho great well was filled
j"trUiiiu a few feet of the top; then, as
I complacently os if nothing strange had
happened, his muleahip stopped out ?afc
and Bound I
I think if he could have then been
blesfied with the gift of speech, he would
have said, "All's well that ends well !"
Wasn't be a plucky fellow ?
THE LIMITATIONS OF THE TELE
PHONE.-There appears to be some draw
backs to the entire success of the tele
Shone. Thc experimental trial nt Phila
elphia and New York, Monday evening,
demonstrated, among other things, the
following facts ? First, the music ia audi
ble only at the receiving end of the cir
cuit. The audience at Steinway Hall
heard the air of "Home, Sweet Home"
very distinctly, but tho spectators who
saw Prof. Bosoovitz playing tho piano at
the Western Union office, in Philadel
phia, heard nothing but the successive
thuda of the keys. Second, the telephone
admits only of tho transmission of dis
tinct notes: it ia not capablo of repro
ducing a harmony, or combination of
sounds. So far aa tho music itself is con
cerned, a child thumming susie1 'Meli*
known nir with ono hand would afford
quito aa much entertainment. It follows
from these facts that thc telephone, al
though a marvel of invention, ia still
little more thau a scientific toy, to he ad
mired, like Maelzol'a chess player, but of
no present practical use. The principle
which it involves, however, is oqetof,io\
menso importance, and may yet bo So dor
veloped as to auporcedo thc telegraph
sign manual with the human voice.

HURRYING TO THE STORE.-During
tho last dull season a well-known Chicago
merchant was observed taking giant steps
in th? direction of his placo of business
at seven o'clock in the morning. A rival
tradesman, who wu well assured that
h?"go solea was not thc motive that in
duced this rapid transit, hriled tho swift
"commercial traveler,'' and interviewed
him as follows :
"What's hroko loose, Charley T. Where
are you going in such a hurry ?"
"I'm irkini? *? the stors."
"Trade must bo active with you !"
"It's not trade that has called me out"
"It'a not a woman, is it?"
"No ; of co ^not. ~Bnt I'll eiolairt

a Bingle tree HO immense that one hun
dred men could uland within the circle
made by the bark, as it aloud enclosing a
space just toe size of tho trunk of the
tree. Tbt* came from California, and
tva*, perhaps, thc largest tree in the
world. There have, however, recently
been discovered some tree* in North Car
olina that are "no sardines."
In surveying the route of tho Spartan
burg and Asheville Railroad the engin
eers encounteied somo chestnuts that
seemed to nestle theirs burs in the upper
firmament. A contractor had to eradi
cate one of these, as it atood directly in
tho way of tho track of the lUiad, and it
measured ten feet three inches across the
stump, and was solid to thc centra.
Thia information we received from the
President of the Spartanburg and Ashe
ville Railroad, who induced z party of
friend? to vint?, the route to enjoy the
magnificent climate aud scenery ot that
hitherto unexplored section of Western
North Carolina. An ox-president of n
railroad was in the party, and when he
saw those mammoth chestnut trees he
asserted that the fence question was set
tled, for he intended to induce the citi
zens of his county to contract for enough
rails to enclose the county, and then de
stroy all the eros? fences.
That's a good idea ; for a now chestnut
rail fonce around tho county would last
till you and J are gone, and what need
we care then about good fences ? Mean
while, wake up tho Legislature upon the
subjeet of tho fence or stock law, and let
us see if there ure not big trees enough
up there to run a fenco from I'oinsot
Spring to the nirtheast corner of Horry,
and .if so wo will make firewood of all tho
cross fences in the State. Let ur. have a

FIRST Wornt i KO OF CORN.-If the
?and his been packed hy rain since thc
corn was planted, run close and break
deep-if the land is close and open, the
ploughing ?H not important. In that
event use plows that will go over rapidly
and save labor*-a shovel, or sweep, or
cultivator will answer. Avoid throwing
much dirt to thc young corn, only enougn
to cover up any young grass that may be
present, but be aura it is well covered ;
much hoeing will not pay in a corn crop,
tho plough alone ought very nearly to
make-of course thinning and some
chopping is generally unavoibablc.
Thin to a stand ns soon os danger of
frost ond worm is over. Nothing in moro
prejudicial to a plant than having anoth
er plant, with the same wants as itself,
growing beside it-the struggle for exis
tence *hen become?, intensified. If the
middles are not very hard or foul, and
time presses, they need not be ploughed
out at thia working In any event puib
on rapidly to give cotton its first working
j iiitt an noon as it will bear it. The farmer
who keeps well ahead, not only stands
tua best chance to make the best crops,
but will do it w?th very much leas actual
labor than the laggard. Let it never be
forgotten that the time to kill grass is
before it can be seen. Resides, every one
knows that early and frequent workings
make cotton grow off rapidly-and nn
early growth ot stalk is one of the surest
ante-cedents of a largo crop of bolls.

THE FARMER AND HIS BUSINESS.
The farm is the only place where a farm
cr can obtain a practical education. It
is to him what; the laboratory is to the
chemist-the place to acquire, or at least
to perfect hit agricultural education.
The timo in which to acquirq.it is as long
as that which bo spends on the farm,
even if it be threo acore and ten years.
If he is a good scholar, and ambitious, he
will roaster his profession; but if stupid
or indolent, he will find little to learn in
connection with it.
The model farmer possesses those ac
tivo habits, that practical turn of mind,
that intuitive forecast, of the future state
of tho markets, that general Intelligence
and strict integrity, which, combined
with a scientific knowledge of his call
inga, will alway;; insure success. You
will observe that this implies a great
deal ; nothing less than that tho farmer
should be a well developed man. And
what calling tends moro certainly and
directly to a full, manly development
than that of tho agriculturist, when prop
erly pursued?
WORTH KNOWING.-Tho Wiener Med
icinithe Prate mentions a case in regard
to tho management of kerosene lampa,
which it behooves those-using this kind
