COUBTXKG. -There's lots of fan in conrting, ^ . If you know the way to do it ; It's the choicest kind of sporting Once you get accustomed to it. Do your courting moderately, As a business, not a favor; Make haste slowly, it adds greatly To the fun a piquant flavor. Court your sweetheart in the kitchen, - In the parlor, in the park: And you'll find the most bewitchin' ? Time for courting after dark. Court for love; most women like it, Nay, I am certain they all do; And the fellow who can strke it Once will hanker for it, too. Court a woman for herself, sir, For the virtue that is in her ; Don't go conrting for her pelf, sir; You will rue it if you win her. Court a woman boldly, bravely; ; Never court her for a fool; When you do,, she'll teach you naively How a woman scorned can rule. Court a woman for a wife, sir, t For a mother good and true; And my word you'll find this life, sir, Paradise enough for yon. Aud such courting beats strawberries, '. Peaches frozen in ice-cream; Champagne frippe, brandied cherries, 'Tis a sunny golden dream. A SCBAP EBO? HISTORY. The Siege of Calais. .(I^ifelll* after the battle of Greasy, in the year 1347," laid siege to Calais. He had fortified his camp in so impreg? nable manner, that all the efforts of 1 .France .proved ineffectual to raise the siege, orr throw succors into the city. The tttizens^undeif Count Vienney their gallant governor,.made an admirable de* J fence;, France had now put the-sickle intq her second harvest, since. Edward, .with his victorious army, aat down before the town. The eyes of all Europe were intent on the issue. At length famine did more .for Edward than arms. After suffering unheard of calamities; they re soiled! il2attemp*t the enemy's camp. They boldly sallied forth; the English joined battle; and after a long and des? perate- engagement, Count Vienna was I taken pris?ner^nd the. citizens who sur? vived the slaughter retired within their gates. The command devolving upon Eustace St. Pierre, a man of mean birth, - bat of exalted virtue, ho offered to eapit- I ulate with Edward, provided he permit? ted him to depart with life and liberty. Edward, to avoid the imputation of cruelty, consented to spare the bulk of the plebeians,-provided they delivered up to him six of their principal citizens, . with halters about their necks, as victims of due atonement for that spirit of rebel? lion with which..they had inflamed the vulgar. When ibis messenger, Sir Wal? ter Mauny, delivered the terms, conster? nation and pale dismay were impressed J on every countenance. To a long and dead silence, deep sighs and groans suc? ceeded, till Eustace St. Pierre, getting up .to a little eminence, thus addressed the assembly?"My friends,, we are brought to.great strait* this day. Wei must either yield to the. terms of our cruel ? and unsparing conqueror, or give up our tender infants, our wives aud daughters, to the bloody and brutal lusts of the violating soldiers. Is there any expedient. left,;whereby we.may avoid ?the'guilt and infamy of delivering up those who have suffered every misery with you, on the one hand?or the deso? lation and horror of a sacked city on the other? There is, my friecds, there is one expedient left?a gracious, an excel? lent, a godlike expedient! Is there any here to whom,virtue is dearer than life? Let him offer himself an oblation for the safety, of "bis people ! He shall not fail of a.blessed approbation from that Power, who offered up his only Son for the sa>vation bf< inaDkind 1" He spoke?b.ut an universal silence ensued. Each man looked around for the example of that magnanimity and virtue, which all wished to approve in themselves, though they wanted the res? olution. At length, St. Pierre resumed ?"I doubt not but there are many here, as ready, nay; more zealous of this mar? tyrdom, than I'can be ; though the sta? tion to which I am raised, by the cap? tivity of lord Vienne, imparts a right to be the first in giving my life for your ' sakes. I give It freely?I give it cheer? fully. Who comes next ?" Five others, equally patriotic, soon followed bis ex? ample. Ihese six self devoted victims then went outuof the town bare-footed, with baiters about their necks, and pre? sented the keys to Sir Walter. He took the prisoners into his custody; then or? dered the gates to be opened, and gave charge to his attendants to conduct the remaining citizens, with their families, through the camp of the English. Before they departed, however, they desired permission to take their last adieu ' oif their .deliverers. What part? ing 1 What L ai 'scene 1 They crowded, ? with their wives'and children, about St. Pierre ana*'hie fellow prisoners. They embraced?they clung around?they fell prostrate before them. They groaned, they wept aloud?and the joint clamor of their mourning passed the gates of the city, and was heard throughout the English camp. The English, by this time, were apprized of what passed with . in Calais. They heard the voice of la? mentation, and their souls were touched with compassion. Each of the soldiers prepared a portion of his own victuals, to welcome and entertain the half fam? ished inhabitants; and they loaded them with as muefcas their present weakness was able to bear, in order to supply them -with sustenance by the way. At length BL Pierre and.his fellow victims appear? ed under the conduct of Sir Walter and a guard. AH- the tents of the English were instantly emptied. The soldiers poured from all parts, and arranged themselves on each side, to behold, to contemplate, vto admire this little band of patriots as they passed. They bowed down to them on all sides. They mur? mured their applause of that virtue, which they could not but revere, even in enemies; and they regarded those ropes which they had voluntarily assum? ed about their necks, as ensigns of great? er dignity than that of the British gar? ter. As soon as they reached his presence, "Mauny," says the monarch, "are these the priBcipal^nhabitants of Calais?" ''They are," says Mauny?,;tbey are not only the principal men of Calais?they ?xe the principal men of France, my lord, if virtue has any share in the act of ennobling." "Were they delivered peaceably?" says Edward. "Was there no resistance, no commotion among the people?" "Not in the least, my lord ; tie people would all have perished, r.ither than have delivered the least of these to your majesty. They are self delivered, self-devoted ; and come to offer np their inestimable heads, as an ample equivalent for the ransom of thousands." Edward was secretly piqued at this repiy of Sir Walter. But he knew the privi? lege of a British subject, and suppressed his resentment. "Experience," says he, "has ever shown, that lenity only serves to invite people to new crimes. Severity, at; times, is indispensably necessary, to compel subjects to submission, by pun? ishment and example. Go," he cried to an officer, "lead these men to execution." At this instant a sound of triumph was heard throughout the camp. The queen bad just arrived with a powerful reinforcement of gallant troops. Sir Walter Mauny flew to receive her majes? ty, and briefly informed her of the par ticulars respecting the six victims. As soon as she had been welcomed by Ed? ward and his court, she desired a private audience. "My lord," said she, "the question I am to enter upon, is not touching the lives of a few mechanics it respects the honor of the English na? tion; it respects the glory ol my Edward, my husband, my king. You think you have sentenced six of your enemies to death. No, my lord, they have sen? tenced themselves; and their execution would be the execution of their own orders, not the orders of Edward. The .stage on which they would suffer, would be to them a stage of honor, but a stage of shame to Edward; a reproach on his conquests; an indelible disgrace to bis name. Let. us rather disappoint these haughty burghers, who wish to invest themselves with glory at our expense. We cannot wholly deprive them of the merit of a sacrifice so nobly intended, but we may cut them short of their de? sires; in the place of that death by which their^-glory would be consummate, let us bury them under gifts, let us put them to confusiou with applauses. We shall thereby defeat them of that popuiar opinion, which never fails to attend those who suffer in the cause of virtue." "I am convinced; you have prevailed ; be it so;" replied Edward. "Prevent the execution; have them instantly be? fore us." They came; when the queen, with an aspect and accents diffusing sweetness, thus bespoke them?"Natives of France, and inhabitants of Calais, you have put us to vast expense of blood and treasure in the recovery of our just and natural inheritance; but you have acted up to the best of an erroneous judgment; and we admire and honor in you that valor and virtue, by which we are so long kept out of our rightful pos? sessions. We loose your chains; we snatch you from the scaffold. You are qow free to depart to your kinsfolk, your countrymen, to all whose*lives and liber? ties you have so nobly redeemed, pro vi ied, you refuse not the tokens of our ssteem. Yet we would rather bind you to ourselves by every endearing Obliga? tion ; and for this purpose, we offer to fou your choice of the gifts ?.nd honors that Edward has to bestow. Rivals for fame, but always friends to virtue, we ivish that England were entitled to call fou her sons." "Ah, my country!". ex slaimed St. Pierre; "it is now that I tremble for you. Edward only wins our# lities^? but Philipps conquers hearts." The Trne Farmer. The true farmer does not stop to count the improvements on his farm ; his rea? son dictates him to believe that he can? not lose by trying to improve. Every acre of ground is cultivated to its highest capacity, and he estimates the profit by the amoflnt of expense it takes to prod"ce the same. A failure to realize immedi? ate results does not discourage him for he knows that it cannot last long. He enjoys farming as a farmer should; he works for profit and spends for profit; be knows nothing of economy's limits, which gains to day and loses to morrow. His whole knowledge and mind is placed upon his farm, and that is why he succeeds. His farm is bis capital, bis workshop and his occupation. The true farmer considers the fact that it costs no more to keep the best than the worst, and that expense means profit in the end, and that the expense is not so tremendous as it seems. He fiuds his way through life, and leaves this world with a reputation to be followed by his children. Farming pays well for a good farmer, that is to say a good and earnest worker, one that selects the best stock to enrich bis farm and takes care of everything in a proper way. There are only about four-tenths of the persons who follow this occupation who are considered good farmers. A man enters upon the path of business life, choosing a trade which he does not care whether he works at or not, he will soon-be ruined, and will lose his whole capital. No matter if you undertake the simplest business, your whole mind and knowledge must look towards it. A person may noe worth a million, but if he neglects his business it i certainly will neglect bim. When a farmer farms rightly, his soil is constantly growing better, his pastures thicker, his fields cleaner, his wife belter looking and bis own heart more tender. ?Ex. Stop, Young Man. Stop, pause and reflect before you handle a woman's reputation with un? hallowed bands. If a woman must be stoned let not the missile be hurled by the hand of a man?it is cowardly and contemptible for the stronger to triumph over the weaker. This is a growing evil with the sex, and they forget that a wife, mother or sister may some day bo the victim of some open aspersions or sly in uendo that may cost a life in avenging the injury. The estimate you put upon female in? tegrity is too low at best for you to take advantage of every unguarded point to make your attack, and where no invasion is suspected no defence will be made. It is true you may sometimes be thrown in? to the society of thoughtless, even de? based women, but you must not judge of the whole sex by the delinquencies of a few, any more than you would judge of the valor and resistance of an entire army by the cowardly surrender of a small gar? rison, or judge of the character of honor? able and reputable citizens by the humili? ating and Startling developments of the police court. Many a spotless character has been forever wrecked in this indis? criminate judgment, and many a man's happiness destroyed by this lack of faith in women. Never speak lightly of your female friends, for the blows of an open, direct attack are more easily parried than those oblique, unlooked for shafts that strike us sideways. An innocent woman never recovers from a wound inflicted upon her reputation. No balsam, however sooth? ing and potent, heals the fatal stab, and its ache and fever are ever present, re? minding the poor victim that a canker worm is ever preying upon vitality and sapping the roots of life and happiness. Facts Worth Snowing, Every man has 240 bones. Except the minstrel end-man, who has 244. The Lungs contain one hundred and seventy-five million cells. This is what makes a man a practical joker. A man breathes about twenty times a minute?that is, unless he is fat, or is walking away from a tailor with a bill. A man'3 average weight is 140 pounds, except when he has to wait for his wife to change her necktie. Then it's forty minutes. The brain of a man is twice as big as that of any other animal. That is why a really noble dog has so much respect for a nine-spot man. The heart in its normal condition beats seventy-five times a minute, but when a young man meets a pretty girl a; a party and steps tremblingly up to proffer an escort borne, the number of beats?heart beats?instantly mounts up to 162 in the shade. The average number of teeth is thirty two, but when one of them is decrepit, aud in the dark it runs on to an ambus? caded raisin-seed in a piece of wedding cake, a man is apt to fancy that he has only one tooth at the most, and that is three feet square.? Rockland Courier. ? Women have tact always, and fre? quently a talent for making themselves agreeable to new acquaintances. A lady sojourning at a certain New Eng? land resort last summer was introduced to another lady who had registered from Cleveland. "So you are from Ohio," graciously commenced the former ; "what is your husband a candidate for V Lazy Christians. There are a few in every Church, who are willing to work, and do work. You hear of them among the poor and sick ; you find them in the prayer-meeting, and see them in all Church activities. They are always willing to do more than their part. You can rely upon them every time. But the majority of profess? ors seem surprised that you should ex? pect any work from them. They come into Church to enjoy religion, not to help others?to be saved, not to work. As for visiting the sick, feeding the poor, gathering in destitute children, or speak? ing to the unsaved they never try it, "have no gift for it," and so pay their money, hear the sermon, enjoy the sing? ing, try to be respectable, and call that religious living, without making a per? sonal endeavor to do good from one year's end to another. It is surprising what easy Christinns smart business men make. A set of merchants who can run a bank or mill, and make trade pay, and know how to manage corporations, will let a Church run down for the want of a little religious enterprise, and very likely call upon the women and children to help them out. A community of Christian farmers, who kuc'v how to improve stock and make a farm pay, who, on hard soil, will get a living, and keep their own houses neat and trim, will let the house of God be? come shabby, and the Church die out, because as farmers they do not work. What our Churches and our committees most need is not more talent, or more truth, or more money or more opportu? nities, but downright and upright earnest work. It takes but a few people, a little money, and small culture. Beware of The Rat-Trap, Life is one continuous rat-trap, always set and baited with cheese to catch the unwary. The business man goes about his business unconscious that the rat trap is set where he can get into it. He extends his business, gives credit and gets credit himself; everything is boom? ing and he is sailing along as nice as your pa was on roller skates, when all at once there is a slack up in business; he can't collect what is owing to him, and be has to pay what he owe?; he clutches and claws at friends for h ?In to keep him from falling, but friends have got all they can attend to to keep on their feet, and they do not reach out to help him, and suddenly his feet go out from under him and he strikes something hard, and he finds that he is in life's great rat-trap, and his creditors do not hurry to un spring the trap, and he waits for the plumber as your pa did, and thinks what a fool he has made of himself. A boy gets a situation in a store at five dollars a week, and in three months he thinks he owns the store. He is promoted and has his salary raieed, and then he begins to dress better than the proprietor, plays billiards till the saloons closes, goes to his cheap boarding place with beer enough in him to start a salflbn, gets to buying wine and hiring livery rigs, and some day a plain looking man calls on him and takes him up to the police sta? tion, where he is told that his cash ac? count is six hundred dollars short, and as he hears the key turn in the door of the cell he realizes that he has dropped square on to life's rat-trap, which he knew was there all baited for him, but he did not have sense enough to keep away from it. Ab, boy, beware of the rat trap.?Peck. ? The most interesting Leap year | incident, so far reported, comes from St. Elmo, 111. It appears that on Sunday last, while the Rev. Mr. Pierce, a young divine, was occupying his pulpit in that city, Mrs. Mary Smith, a dashing young widow, left her seat in the body of the church and went up and stood beside him. To the astonishment of the con? gregation she announced that she was about to become Mrs. Pierce. She had become infatuated with the young divine, and to this and the excitement of a re? ligious revival, at which she was convert? ed, her temporary insanity is attributed.

"As weak as a .cat" is an expression frequently used by debilitated sufferers who arc trying to tell how forlorn they feel. It is an incorrect ex? pression, for a cat is one of the most apfile and vigorous animals in exist? ence.
