AN OYSTER YARN.
A New York correspondent to the
Philadelphia -'Press" tells the Follow
ing amusing story '?
I never Found anything but once
here in excess oF my expectation or
even approaching them, ami that was
the New York oysters. 1 had then
just come on from California, where
oysters arc very small and unimpor
tant, not to aay insignificant, and I
had often eat a hundred there at a
time, and had always felt that I could
eat more if 1 had them. So, when I
arrived at the Metropolitan hotel I
ordered my dinner to be served in my
room, and told the waiter to bring
with my dinner a strong cup of code. '
ami a hundred raw oysters. II?! look ?
cd at me a moment, and then said:
??Did 1 understand you to say a
hundred oysters."
"Yes,"' I answered; ?'raw, on the
half shell, with vinegar ; no lemons,
ami as soon us you cau, for I am very
hungry."
"Ahem! Miss, did you want a '
hundred:"
"Yes, 1 do. What are you wait
ing for? Must I pay for them in ad
vanccV I want largo, nice ones."
?'No, no, Miss. All right, you shall
have them," and he went out
I continued my writing and forgot
all about my dinner till he. knocked
ami came in with my dinner ou a
tray, hut no oysters.
"How is thisV" said I. "There are
no oysters."
"Dey's comin', M iss, dey's comin',"
and the door opened and in Hied three
more waiters, each with a big tray of
oysters on tin- hit1.!'sind!. I was
staggered, hut only for a moment,
I saw the waiters wen grinning, so I
calmly directed them to place out
tray on a chair, one on tin- wash
stand ami ou - on Ihr- heil, and said:
"They arc very small, aren't the}*?"
"Ob! no, Miss, de bery largest
we'se got."
"Very well," said I; "you can go.
If I want any more I'll ring."
When they got out into the hall
one said to the other:
"For heaven, Jo. if she cats all
them oysters she's a dead woman."
I ditl not feel hungry any longer. I
drank my eotfee and looked at the
oysters, every one of them as higas,:
my hand, and they till seemed look
ing at me with their horrible while
faces and out of their one diabolical
eye, until I could not have eaten one
any more than I could have carved up
a live baby. They jeered at me and
seemed to dare mo to attack them.
Our California oysters an- small ami
with no more individual character
about them than grains ot*rice, but
these detestable creatures were in
stict wdth evil intentions, and I dare
not swallow one for fear of the dis
turbance he might raise in my inter
rior, so I set about getting rid of
them, for I was never going to give
up beaten before t hose waiters. 1
hung a dress over the keyhole after I
had locked the door, and just outside
my window I found a tin waterspout
that had a small hole in it. 1 care
fully enlarged it, and then slid every
one id' those beastly creatures down
one by one?one hundred and two of
them?they all the time eyeing me
with that cold, pastry look of maligi
nity. When the hist, one was out of
sight I stopped trembling and finish
ed my dinner in peace,and then rang
j for the waiters. You should have
seen their faces! One of the waiters
asked if I would have some more
May he never know the internal pang
he indicted upon me; but I replied
calmly:
"Not now. I think too many at
once might be hurtful."

A RICH MAN ON RICHES.
The Pol lowing story, says t lie Way
Bide, is told of Jacob Ridgway, a
wealthy citizen of Philadelphia, who
died many years ago, leaving a for
tune of six million dollars:
'Mr. Ridgway,1 said a youth with
whom the young man was conversing,
'you are more-to he envied than any
gentleman I know.'
'Why so?1 responded Mr. Ridgway;
'I um not aware of any cause for
which I should bo particularly en
vied.'
'What, sir!1 exclaimed the yunu
man in astonishment. 'Why, ure you
not n millionaire!' Think of the
thousands your income brings you
every monl h !'
> 'Well, what of that?1 replied Mr.
Ridgway. 'All I get out of it is my
victuals and clothes, und I can't eat
more than one man's allowance?, or
wear u ore than one suit of clothes
at n time. Pray, can't you do as
much?1
'Ali. but." sjiid the youth, 'think of
the bund red? of line houses you own
and the amount of rental they bring
you I1
'What better am I off for that?' re
fplied the rich man. 'I can only live
in one house at :i time; as for the
'money I receive for the rents, why, I
lea n't eat i! or wear it; I can only use
it to buy other houses for ot her people
to live iu; they nrc the beneficiaries,
not I.1
'Hut you can buy splendid furni
?ttirc :ind costly pictures, and line
?^arringes and horses?in fact, what
vou desire."
?And alter I have bought them,1
'responded Mr. Ridgway. 'what then?
I can only look at the furniture and
biet ures. and the poorest man who is
T5ot blind can do the same. I can
ride no easier in a line carriage than
you in an omnibus for live cents,
with the trouble and attention to
drivers, footmen and hostlers; and as
to anything 1 desire, 1 can tell you,
young man. that the less we desire in
this world the happier we shall be.
All my wealth cannot buy back my
youth, cannot purchase exemption
from sickness and pain, cannot pro
cure me power to keep afar oil' the
hour of death; ami then, what will all
avail when, in n few short years at
i^int, - I lie down in the grave-nndH
leave it all forever? Young man, you
have no cause to envy me.1
A LOVER'S REVENUE.
When das. Lick, tin California
millionaire, was a young man, he fell
in h>vc with a miller's daughter in
Pennsylvania. Young Lick faced the
stern old miller and asked for the
hand of his daughter. Now..lames
was a poor young man. but honest
and industrious, and withal full of
pride. The man refused to grant
James1 request, and adtiscd him not
to marry until he hud a competency
to support u wife. These remarks
were rather humiliating to young
Lick's pride, and with emphasis he
replied: 'Sir, I shall see the day
when your boasted mill would nol
make :i respectable wheat bin lor one
I shall own.' Years passed und
James Lick erected in Santa Clara
county, ('a!., a mill, t he wood work of
which is .solid mahogany. Shortly
after its erect ion he had photographs
taken of the insids of his mill, und
sent thorn to the miller who had re
fused him the hand of his daughter.
j Young man, when you see any
thing you want, ask for it like a man.
If you want to borrow $5 of a mau, or
if you only want to marry his daugh
ter, don't slide up to him and hung
on to your hat ami talk politics and
religion ami the weather, and tell
old stule jokes, whereof you can't
remember the point, until von worry
t he old man into a nervous irritat ion.
Go to him with it full head of steam
on and your bow ports open, like an
iron-clad pulling lor a shore battery.
Snort and paw and shake your hen i.
if you feel like it, no matter if it docs
make him astonished. Retter aston
ish him lluin Lore him. Go into his
hear) or poeketbook, or both ? it
amounts to the sanic thing?like a
hrimllc bull with a curl in his for*'
head charging a red merino dress,
eyes on lire, tail up. and the dust
living. Then you'll fetch him. Or.
possibly, he may fetch yon. Hut nerer
mind; you'll accomplish something,
ami show thai you are nol afraid to
speak what's on your mind. And
that's a great deal iiioretl au you
would accomplish by the other meth
od. You needn't be cheeky, but you
ought to be st might forward.
Little Hobby came home with his
new hut limp as a dish (doth. 'For
goodness sake,1 cried his mother,
'where have you been?1 Hobby be
gan to whimper, as he replied,'A fei
ler threw my hat into the frog pond.'
'O Robby! you threw it iu yourself.
I saw you do it.' 'Well,1 stud Robby
contemptuously, 'ain't I a feller?
LEARNING TO 8EW.
To be bandy with the needleia one
of the sterling accomplishments of
every educated woman. To bo able
Intake the "stitch in time," is worth
nil the time and trouble that are re
quired to learn the art. Like walk
ing, reading and the many other
things which wc come to do without
special thought, the learning to sow
is a slow process, and should he. be
gun while the child is quite young.
The girl should not only have the
use of the thread, needles and patch
work, but be instructed how to take
the stitches, turn the corners and do
the various things connected with
needle work. We are not excluding
the boys in our remarks, because they
need to learn to thread a needle and
do general sewing. Men arc some
times no situated that they must de
pend upon themselves for their neces
sary sewing. Even if it is an age of
sewing machines, it is best that all
children should learn to use. the
simple, common, old-fashioned kind,
which can never be wholly supetved
ed. The amusement ami occupation
that sewing furnishes little folks
afford sufficient reason why mothers
should see that tlx ir girls, undboys
too, learn to sew; but the voryprac
tieal use of the needle in afterlife is
the principal thing, after all.
Work is no dishonor, and laziness
is no credit to any one. It is good to
have good wages; but half pay is bet
ter than nothing, ami working for
nothing is better than idleness and
vice. There is no true manhood with
out independence He whose indi
viduality is swallowed up by fashions,
lolly, or society, has lost that which
he may never regain, and without
which his life must he a va?" one.
He who restrains himself from luxu
ry may help others in necessity. He
who helps others may look to God
for help. Difficulties a re placed in
our way t hat we may overcome them,
an I pass through conflicts to vie
tories, and through victories to
triumphs. Pride gocH before destruc
tion, but honor and nobleness and
independence of soul are approved of |
by God and profitable to mat".
The world wants more sunshine in
its disposition, in its business, in its
charities, in its theology. For ten
thousand of the todies and pains and
irritations of nu n and women we re
commend sunshine. It soothes better
than morphine. It stimulates better
than champagne. It is the liest
plaster for a wound. The Good Sa
maritan poured out into the fallen
traveller** gash more of this tlutu of
oil. Florence Nightingale used it on
! the Crimean battle-fields. Take it out
into all the alleys, on board till the
ships, by all the sick-beds. Not a
vial full, not a cupful, hut a soul full,
it is good for spleen, for liver com
plaint, for neuralgia, for rheuma
tism, for failing fortunes, for melan
choly.
Rev. Sam .Jones preached at Ebe
nezcr Church, near Forsytb, every
day and night last week until Fri
day. Large crowds attended these
meetings and were very much inter
ested in Mr. Jones* preaching, lie
calls certain members of the church
honorary members, and says of them:
They don't come to class meetings,
they don't come to prayer meetings,
they don't attend the Sunday schools,
they don't add to the life of the
church, they arc passengers on the
gospel ship, they bear no burdens,
adil no strength, their names are on
our hooks.-but they are never with
us in ( hutch, and I am fearful they
will not be with us in that better
land.
Some of our readers well remember
the abstraction of about$20,000 of
State Hank bills from the office of
Mayor .1. ('. Coit, early in the year,
in Columbia, by a clerk, named Alex
U. McLaughlin, in the employ of Mr.
Coit, who was appointed to pass up
on the validity of the bills. Mr. Mc
Laughlin was promptly arrested on
the charge and put in prison. Since
his confinement be has been suffer
ing from a complication of diseases
and his life being dispaired of by his
physicians the man was removed to
his home in the city of Columbia last
Saturday, where he died on the same
eveuina*.
A colored boy was killed in the
colored church tit Hock Hill on Sun
day night hist. The circumstances,
as related are, that several boys were
handling their pistols in the church,
on the back scats, when one of the
pistols was accidentally discharged,
the contents entering the head of
one of the boys, killing him instant
ly. The excitement which ensued
wtis intense and caused the disper
sion of the congregation.
A Detrot girl at a spelling bee sat
down on "pantaloons."
WATER.
Some years agon ship Bailing Jo
the South Atluntie, saw another mak*
ing signals of distress. They bor?
down toward the sufferers and hail
ed them.
'What is the matter?' cried tb?
captain, through his trumpet.
We are dying for water,' was tho
feeble response.
'Dip it up then!' shouted back tho
astonished captain; 'you are in the
mouth of the Amazon River/
And, sure enough, there thoso sail
ors were, with parched lips and swol
len tongues, supposing that there was
nothing but the oceans brine around
them, when they were in the mightest
river in the globe, with three hund
red miles of fresh water around them.
Thus are we, poor thirsty souls,
sailing on the boundless ocean of
Gods love, heedless of the divine
voice which saith, 'If thou knewest
the gift of God, and who it is that
snitb to thee, 'Give me to drink,'thou
wouldst have asked of him, and ho
would have giveu the living water.'
A little gi.d, who was left in charge
of the hou<*o by her mother with
special warning ngainst going into a
closet containing certain good things,
wns found in the forbidden closet on
the lady's return. Vexed at her
daughter's disobedience, she asked
her if Bhe knew who it was that
tempted her to do wrong. 'It was
Satan,' said the girl, 'Then you
should have said, 'Get the behind mo
Satan,' said the lady. 'So I did, moth
er replied the girl, 'but then he push
ed me into the press.'
A certain old gentleman, very rich
and still more stingy, is iu the habit
of weariug his clothes to the last
thread. One of his friends, meeting
him, exclaimed: 'They toid me that,
you bad a new hat, and I'll be hang
ed if you haven't!' 'Oh, yes,'said
the miser, looking as if he were a
trifle ashamed of himself, *yon set*
my wife kept telling me that the old
one was a good deal worn out. Well,
yesterday was my wife's birthday,
and I got myself a new hat for her
birthday present.'
A schoolmaster endeavors to in
still into the minds of his pupils tho
great truth that you should always
count 100 slowly before you speak,
and if it is anything very important,
I 500. He then takes his stand by tho
stove, and after some minntes ob
serves that the lips of all his scholars
arc moving slowly and noiselessly.
Presently and simultaneously they
all break out: 'Four hundred and
ninety-nine! Five huudred! Master,
your court-tails are all on fire!'
