Tho Borrowed Calf. Animfortunated biped out "West, rojoiokig tn tho cognomen of " fltogar," thus ?ives his experience in courting: The only objection ever made to mo in this ere country, as a legislator, "was made by the wiminin, 'cause I war a bachelor, and 1 never told you afore why I remained in a state of number one. ,JSro feller stays single premeditated, and in course a hausum feller like me, who all the gals declare to bo as enlniiu as a jaybird, wasn't "oin to stay alone if he could help it. 1 did see a creatvp- obco named Sofy Mason, up the Cumberland, nigh unto Nashville, Tennessee, that 1 took an orful hankerin arter, and 1 sot into lookin anxious for matrimony, and I 'gin to go regular to mcetin, and took to dressin tromengeous linilied, jest to see if I could win'her good opinion. She did git to leokin at me kind o' shy, jest as a hoss does at sumthin lie's scared at, when, arter?phampin At a distance for awhile, i sidled up to her and blurted out a few words about the sarmin. She says " yes," but cuss me if I know whether that ;wur the right answer or not, and I'm thinkin she didn't know, nuther. Wellrwo-larfed and talked aleetlee all the way 'long to her daddy's, and tliar I giv her the best bend I had in me, .ana raised my bran new hat as peert and perlite as a minister, lookin all the time ?o enticin that I sot the gal tremblin... Her old daddy had a powerful numerous lot of healthy niggers, and lived right jinin mv place, while on the other side lived J*ake Simons, a sneakin, cute varmint, who wur wnsser thiln a miser for stinginess, and no fiodner did thiercusscd sarpint see me sidin up to Sofy, than he went to'slickin up, too, and sot himself to work to cut me out. That ar wur a struggle ekil to the battle of Orleans. Furst sum new fLxup o' Jake's would take her eye, and then I'd sport sumthin that would outshiuc him, until at last Jake gin in tryin to outdress me, and sot 1 thinkin of sumthin else. Our farms were jest the same number of acres, I and we both owned three niggers apiece. Jake knew that Soiy and tier dad kept a sharp lookout for the main chance, so ho tliort he'd clar me out by buyin another nigger; but I follored suit, apd bought one the day alter he fot bfe, soke had nf> advantage tliar. [e thfcn 'got a cow, and -so did I, and just about then both of our pusses gin out. This put Jako to his wit's eend, and I war a wonderin what in the yearth he would try next. We stood so, hip and thigh, for about two weeks, i both on us tnlkin sweet to i^olY, whcrl-1 ever wo could get her alonc^ I thoft J seed that Jake, the sneak in cnq?,^ar getti? a mUU) ahead of me, 'cause hjp tongue was so 'iley; however, I didn't let tm, hut kept a top eye on him.

Tun Boy of the Times.?We like an active boy, says the Southern Organ, one who has the impulse of the age?of the steam engine?in him. A lazy, plodding 6nail-paccd chap, might havo Sot alon? in the world fifty years ago, ut he wo'nt do for these times. We 1 live in an age (ff quick ideas: men ' think quick, speak quick, eat, sleep, ; court, marry, die quick?and slow coaches are not tolerated. " Go ahead, if you hurt your boiler," is the motto of the age; and lie succeeds tho best in 1 every lino of business who has the most ! of do or die in him. Strive, boys, to catch tho spirit of the ' times: be up and dressed always, not J gaping and rubbing your eyes, as if you were half asleep, but wide awake, whatever may turn up?and you may be somebody before you die. Think, plan, reflpct as much as you j please, before you act; but think quickly and cjosely, and when yon have fixed your eye upon an object, spring to the mark at once. But above all things be honest. If 1 you intend to be an artist, carve it in ' the wood, chisel it in the marble : if r. 1 merchant, write it in your day-book j and spread it in capitals 111 your ledger. ' Let honesty of purpose bo your guid ing star. T "I Have a Right to Scold."?I know two little girls named Julia and Mary Mason. They aro sisters, and the only children ol tlieir parents. I once heard Jnlia complain very bitterly of li?r sister. " I wish I could have my ring," said she. " I think Mary is a real naughty girl. Sho wears my hair ribbons and my ringtail the time. I think 6he is real naughty." "My dear Julia," said I, "do not talk so about your sister. You really scold about her." " I have a right to scold," said Julia, very decidedly. " Mary scolds at me, and I have a right to scold." " Have yon," said I. "Whore do you find the right? Docs the Bible say that if a person scolds at you, you may scold at tliem ? W ill you please to find tlio 1 chapter and verse i I should be very 1 glad to have you show it to me, if you 1 can find such a verso." Julia made no replv. Sho looked rather mortified, and I think sho felt ' that she could not find anything in the J Bible to prove that we may speak un- ' kindly even to those who speak unkindly to us. ? What do you think, my little reader. ' Are we taught to render M evil for evil, * or railiifg for railing?"?New York 6 Enquirer. ? IIumorous Incident.?A laughable c incident occurred in this country some t time since, the circumstances ol" which c wo got from one acquainted with the 1 transaction. An old gentleman farm- r er, who had two handsome daughters, i was so cautjous of his charge, that ho r 4>erjmt them to keep the v com young men; however, they ? a<|p^wl "the expedient to en- o yjj miq yun'jwiv 01 uicir lovers. A I-111 tar the old-limn iretired to rest.tho girls W&ulcMiahg a sheet orif of the \vtfndbw, and Che beau would seize hold of the a feheet, and with the assistance iof his la- u dydove, who tugged lustily above, V wotild'Jhus gain an entrance; but it so c happeimd 111at one evening the s girlavliflfig out flic sheet too carfy, for a the-old gentleman, *rf some ill wind, s was accidentally Ground the corner, o and spying the sheet, could not con- t jecture the meaning of its being there; <] |o he caught, hold and endeavored to ptall it ddwn ; the girls aliove supposed it to be one ofc^lieir beaux, began to i hoist, and di&pM discover their mjjfc I take until the old man's head was u vel with the window sili, when or>e of t them exclaimed, "Ol^JLord! 'tis dadt" t and letting go the sheet, cowhollop s' came down the old man on the gronna, a dislocating one shoulder, which con- g vinced him that to make * old maids' si out of liis daughters, was a matter not ti ivxjwjk - - u MJSL Little Li^jsu!nj|m >u8 Thing."?Tlien make' it greater. Nro learning at all is surely the m<)Bt langereus tiling in tbe worm! and it i^ioHunate that, in this country Pet least, it is a danger which cararot possibly exist. After all, learnltfvis acquired knowledge, and nodHp else. A man who can read his Bible has a little learning; a man wh6 can only plow or dig, has less: a man who can only break stones on tne road, less still; but he has some. The savages in one of the islands in the South Sea, stood with great reverence round a sailor who had lighted a fire to boil some water in a saucepan, but as soon as the water began to boil they ran away in 11 r> ll i?AI) \T lit' tarrAii nnmno./ul Mgvuj V4 iVl 4 V4 VV4 Willi the savages, there is no boy in Europe, of the age of ten years, who may not be called learned. He has acquired a certain quantity of practical knowledge in physics; and, as this knowledge is more than instinct, it is learning, learning which differs in degree oidy from that which enables a chemist to soparato tho simple metals from soda or potash. ??? Males and Females.?Tho law of nature, fixin? the numerical relation of the sexes, is an everlasting testimony aguinst polygamy. The number of females born is slightly greater, about four per cent., than males, but at twenty years of age they are nearly equal; at iorty, there are more males than females ; and at seventy, they aro nearly equal again. The mortality of females between ten and forty is very great, and is probably too much increased by tho confined and unnatural lives they lead ; after forty, their chances of long lifo aro much greater than man's, and the last census showed several hundred women in this country over 100 years old.

Female Piety.?The gem of all othjrs which encircle the coronot of a laly's character is unaffected piety. Na;ure may lavish much on her person? ;he enchantment of the countenance? he gracefulness of hor mind or strength >f her intellect; yet her loveliness is mcrownedtill piety throws around the vholo sweetness and power of her diarms.

It is undoubtedly a scandalous bservation, but a modern philosopher ias remarked, and we give the aphoisin for what it is worth, that " Love s so essential to tho very life of wonan, that in celibacy she is unhappy without a lover, and after marriage, if he is so unfortunate as not to love her wn husband, Bhe is pretty certain to eve somebody else's!"
