( With all condescension, I'd call yonr attention To what 1 would mention of Erin! bo green; And without hesitation J'll show how,tliat nation Became, of creation, the Gem and the Queen. It happened onomornie'j Without any wnrnin', That VcntiB was horn inthu beautiful sky; And?hy theeanic token (And stire 'twas nrovokin')? Her pinions were r.oakin', and wouldn't give play. So Neptune, who knew her, Began to pursue her, In order to woo her (the wicked ould Jew); And he very near caught her, Atop of the water? Groat Jupiter's daughter, who roared "Phillnloo 1" Then Jove, the great gen ilia, Looked down iili'tl saw Venus, And Ncptuuo, ho heinous, pursuing her wild; So ho roared out in thunder, He'd tear him asunder, (And sure 'twas no wonder,) for teasing his child. And a star that van flying Around him,espying, ^ He seized without singing, und hurled it below; Where itturuhleulike winking On Neptune, while sinking, And gave him, I'm thinking, a broth of a blow. And thalstar became drv land, Loth highland and lowland, And formed the sweet island, the land of my birth; Thus plain is the story, That sent down from glory , Ould Erin, i he hoary, a Heaven on earth. . Then Venus stepped irately, On Erin so stalely, And fainted, being lately so bothered and pressed; Hut ere it quite killed her Jlcr father distilled her Of Helicon's nectar, a drop of the hrest. And that glass so victorious It made her feel glorious? A U*ille uproarious, I feel 1 could prove; Then how can you blame us That Ireland is famous For beautv and fighting and whiskv and 'love*?. . ..... - - ' One Hundred Years Ago. Some wise wng has summed up the changes that have taken place during a century, in this way. One hundred years tijjo wedding lours were not fashionable. One hundred years ago furthers did not cut their legs oil'with mowing machines. One hundred years ago our mothers did not worry over disordered sewing machines. i One hundred years ago horses which could trot a mile in 2:14 were somewhat scarce. On3 hundred years ago it took several days to procure u divorce and find a congenial spirit. One hundred years ago there were no disputes about the impoliteness of street car drivers. One h?; died years ago every young man was not an applicant for a position as a elerk or book-keeper. One liu ml red years ngo kerosene lamps did not explodcaiul assist wo men toshuiile oil'this mortal coil. One hundred years ngo men did not commit suicide hy going up in balloons and coming down without them. One hundred years ngo there were no tliii'd term millionaire bishops to stir np the waters of partisan polities. One hundred years ago there wcte no Turkish harems at Salt Lake, and no Ann Eliza? suing for the nineteenth part of a divorce. One hundred years tigo England was not very far behind the United States in all that goes to make a na tion powerful and progressive. One hundred years ngo the Dutch hail taken Holland, but they hud not made Franco "come down" with a handsome pile of "smart money." One hundred years ngo a young woman did not lose caste by wetting her hands in dish water or rubbing the skin oil' her knuckles on a washboard. One hundred years agon physician who could not draw every ,form of disease from the system hy tapping a large vein in tho arm was not much of a doctor. One hundred years ago men were not running about over the country with millions offish eggs to be batch ed to order. Fish superintended their own hatching in those days. One hundred years ngo people did not worry about rapid transit and cheap transportation, but threw their grain crops across the hacks of their horses, and uncomplainingly "went to the mill." One hundred years ago every man cut his coat according to his cloth, every man was estimated at Ins real value,-'shoddy was not known, nobody had struck "lie," and true merit and honest worth were the only grounds for prmootion. - 11? w. l j> ? * ? tfin ,mmm A Soiree at Barfield. The Troy ttmlyct says: He wore long hair and a strong breath. Iiis clothes had been newer and cleaner, and his hat had a rim as wide ns a good-fi/.ed umbrella. lie smiled up ( n us when wc asked him what was his favor it beverage. He answered that he'd swallow a little rye. What he called a "littlo" didn't seem to be the barkeeper's meaning of the word. Taking an ordinary tumbler full ol ne at one swallow is a feat that the common consumer would scarcely call "little." "When he had swallowed the liquid he turned to us and re marked: "That's bully good rye. I swar I ain't, drunk any such rye as that in ten years. Then it was in Tom Scone's, dowu in Bnrhvld, Arkansaw. Was you ever in Arkan saw ? No! Well,, it's a* might} lively State. 1 never see a pootier row than occurred at Tom's last Christmas night i. 11 years ngo. It was the most enjoyal le affair yon ever see. They were having a. dance there that night, and the whisky was plenty, and after awhile 'loin began to cheer, and whoop, and jump, ar.d he outs with his pistol and fires into the crowd pro miskus like. The bali hit Sammy Carlccr on the cheek and tjum.pro menaded over to his wife and landed in her jaw. I guess she didn't talk with her usual volubility for a few weeks. Tom's fil ing was a signal for all the boys to draw their shooting irons and bewies, and the woik got mighty interesting. Tom Carker's brother Nate inserted his bowie in Tom Scone's stummik, and Bill Bent, ho raised a chair and filed it at Nate, who dodged it the neatest you ever sec, and it took Miss Belle Drew in the place where women put the most cotton in their dresses. This roused the dander of .Mi.-s. Drew, and, upset ting the table, she tare a leg out of it and sailed in ns pooty as ever you ?ce I anything. I jest wish there had been I a painter (hero to have painted that scene and handed that woman's pio tur down to future times. The way j she laid out the boys was a caution. I bet she broke more heads that night than she ever broke heai Us In her bounding around she upset the lamp, and in the darkness the firing was ! in ore pi omi.sk us than ever, and Miss Drew sho got wounded so hndly that she died in a half hour. 1 never did know who drew the trigger that caus ed her death. But 1 had to leave town suddenly that night, and I ain't never been back there since. I don't suppose I'll ever again see such a pooty little scrimmage as that was, It was one of the pleasant affairs that only happen once in n lifetime." And he sighed sadly and shook his head and wiped his nose on the back of his hand. Wc bade him good day, and left him to think of the vanished joys of life in Arkansaw. - wm? - ? -mmwm? Man issogieat that his greatness appears even in the conciousness of his misery. A tree docs not know it self to be miserable. It is true that it is. misery indeed to know one's self to be miserable; but then it is great ness also. In this way all man's miseries go to prove his greatness. They are the miseries of a mighty potentate, ol a dethroned monarch. ?I'aaval. m % mm - Faith addresses itself to man's wholo being; it sounds every depth, it touches every spring; it calls back the soul from its weary search within it self, lull of doubt and contradiction; it presents an object, implicit, abso lute, greater than itself?"Ono that knowoth all things." It provides for ever aflliclion, every want and aspira tion.? Tin j'adcitcc oJ'JIojk; Does A Child Remember? Wo saw recently an amusing evi dence of the application. The little urchin, barely six years of age, had been-, .eating raw turnips, lor which he ?ccfneil to have a passion. He was for bidden eating any more. Stepping into guio kitchen, he saw sonic cleanly washed turnips on the table, and ask ed for one. The cook denied him, and told mfiinij "Mother says you must, not cat any more turnips raw." He in sisted on having one, but the cook as persitently refused him. Assuming the altitude of a lecturer, and point ing hi} finger at the cook, he said : "12l)cn, you arc just like that iiian Dives. I heard mother read about in the Bible; and I am like tho beggar Lazarus. I want it and can't get it; you have it and won't give it to inc. Never, mind, you know where Dives went, and where Lazarus wont. Sonic of these times you'll be calling on mo for Hjwi>,M und out.ho stepped, (juite iiidigua?t that ho couldn't get his turnip.' . . Now, if a child at six can acquire and apply such n complication ol ideas, at what ago do they begin to learn Co imitate cither by word or deed?.* Little do parents dream how muchi of their conversation is absorbed by the little, prattlers around them, und liow many of their acls arc imi tated because lather or mother did it. - ?MB- - - - <mo^i" - Exr*utsi?N ok Ft.i i:s.?Wo copy tho following from the London Gar den.

The fanner who stints his fields, is as unwise and improvident as lie who starves his working cattle?in both cases he is diminishing ihc ability of a faithful servant to be useful to him. The farmer who obtains from a field not properly fertilized ten bushels of grain, uhen by manuring he might have obtained twenty, is selling his labor at half its value. He who does not give back to his fields as much as he takes from tlicm, soils their fertility in his crop?and the fertility of tho soil is the farmer's capital. The farmer who will keep these truths in view, and act in accordance with the rules they suggest, will find his compensation in the increasing products of his farm, in the augmenta tion of his wealth, and in the promo tion ol'general prosperity. , A sick man,'slightly convalescent, was asked by a pious friend, who his ph > sieian was.
