THE COUNTRY SCHOOL MASTER. "Skilled to ride, The Village master taught his schobL" There are few characters more singular, few : situations more varied, than that of the Country School Master, as he formerly existed.? The preseut race of School Musters is as dil' ferent from that, which ruled in our time, as 1 the flying lizards of the Saurian geologic period were to the Hying ants of the year 1S5I. Now, he is a spruce young dandy, in many instances, just let loose upon Southern barbarians, from | the refined New Kngland States. Formerly | lie was a man more sinned against, than sinj ning?a kind of accommodating machine, put ! in motion by the breath of every one's wishes; ! disliked by nobody and like nobody but him' self. He possessed a character, the terror of every boy and girl in the parish; and of very j little convenience to the possessor. He sulfurJ ed as many changes as a rebel emperor, and was by turns, a tyrant, a slave, a law maker, and a sufferer; and yet amidst all the varieties of his life, he strutted his hour with singular credit, performing no little service to mankind. A loinr sti iinr of acuuirements made him a o O necessary being with old women, and country bumpkins and he was invariably the oracle of all the knotty cuouiries of the neighborhood. One might knowJliim by his gaunt tigure, for though the best fed inau in the couutry, like a pig, he never thrived upon petting. With a wardrobe and a library consisting oi two shirts and Pike's arithmetic, he passed a long and 1 patient life with as much celebrity for his sphere, I as a prince in power, dealing out his learning, as freely as hi* birch, and in school, always [ proving one by the other. Theu all the ohgit,a, j physiology, geology, concology, and psyoology were unknown, except doxology - which he regularly stood up and sung in Church on Sundays. liis leaching, therefore, was coutined to reading, writing, arithmetic and grammar, which lie taught far better than it is known i" the present day. He also understood latin, which he read fluently, always giving a the Oxj ford pronunciation and e the souud ot a. With old farmers and the parson he was ever a wonderful man, keeping the former always well posted up in politics, and chat; and sutiering the latter to beat him invariably at checkers. The old ladies too. delighted greatly, of a Friday evening, to see him pacing along towards their doors, and such an event enacted an unusual stir in the household. Jeuny was allowed to put on her Sunday frock, and the vene-" rated china left its old staud in tho cupboard. Little Johnny too, was indulged with a clean face and his best jacket, and he was sure to lay in a small stock of favor to serve hiin at school the coming woek. He was therefore quite officious io hand the cuke to the master, and listening with unabated attention to his often rehearsed stories. At Sunday meoting the schoolmaster, al ways excepting the parson and the deacon, was the most important |>ersonage present. He would sit on a tombstone in the church yard, , before service, with u crowd of gaping rustics i round him, all listening to his wondrous tales i and wondering at the extent of his knowledge, i How many miraculous stories he told ol the < goblins his great grandmother saw dancing in ' the moonlight, and his uncle was well acquain- j ted with the man who saw the jawbone of Jo- < nah's whale, ile loved too, to speak of the : little frolics he used in his youth to bo guilty i of. What a gallant he used to be, and how folks used to plaguo hi.u about the pretty little who lived at the foot of the bill. i All these faculties made him quite a fine fel* | low with some, and a miracle with others of I his neighbors; and it was not till after a long < life, devoted to that single vocation, more loved tor Is simplicity, than envied tor its possessions, or feared for its amtiilion; long after the dust of his grave had been leveled by the foot of time; that this humble pioneer of the youthful intellect was ceased to be rememberod for his usefulness and benevolence of his hedrt. And where a better station ? The toils of the ambitious and the struggles of the great but end in the j^rave; and few leave memorials whiyh t triumph over the efforts of time. Surely the labors of that life, bo\ er humble,are the noblest, which are connected with no recollection of having retarded the progress of the human idiikI which only have beeir devoted to lt^im-' provcment, which have led the soul onward in its great researches after truth, fand taught the intellect to soar into those broad fields of intel lectual light, where a thousand influences beaming virtue and happiness, *tud tbe^ cloudless skies of science and philosophy. How much better to he thought of, for the piety of our example, even in a narrow sphere, which we have faithfully tilled up with useful labors, thau to be remembered as possessed of great abilities and opportunities, but as great thoegfr striking crimes! To have it said as the wayfarer passes by our mouldering tomb, "There rests the instructor of my youth?he who let my mind into the glory of her existence; who gave her the birfh of reason; and learned her that knowledge, while it is power, is ah^virtue and happiness."* Reflections, accompanying the trnopc ar nnn'e liTo lilrrt fl\ocn AoadaSnltf ovni> J till O HI VllbO IIIC? IIBO IIIVCV) wi KHHIiJ CAWI cise no little influence on men's moral felicity, and are no weak arguments lor the immortality of the soul. , -v A Rkhamcablk Story.?The Presbyterian, a religious paper, published somewhere at the North, tells the following extraordinary story: "A young man in the township of Wjyraaw, Genesee county, N. Y., was engajpdjncttting wood; and in felling a tree it became* eotaugled in the branches of other trees. While endeavoting to disentangle the tree and bring it to the ground, it suddenly fell, and splitting ait the butt, he was caught by the toot, arid tbus'suspended with his head downward. In tb(p condition fhe cried for help, until his voice was gone and his strength weli uigh exhausted.? LI is axe had fallen, and he could barely touch the end of the helve with his linger. He labored to reach it, but itwakall tri rain. Could he but get that, he could extricatel himself. But alas! it was beyond his reach. What was he to do 1 He bad cried for help until he could no longer speak. He was iu the woods* threequarters of a mile from any human betnjrTFhe weather was extremely cold, and he was kanging with his head downward, suffering extreme pain, not only in the foot which was caught iu the cleft of the tree, but also in the head, caused by bis unnatural {Msition and the great exertion he bad put forth to be heard. Death now seemed inevitable, unless be could be immediately extricated. There was no alternative. Summoning all his courage, therefore, he came to the determination to make th$ attempt to cut off bis leg; and should be succeed in doing this, there was but a fafnthope that lie would thereby save his life, for there was no surgeon at baud to take up the arteries ?no kind friend near to bind up the mangled limb. It seemed more than probable, therefore, that he would bleed/to death.gj But what will a man not do to save fas life. He hid in his pocket an old dull knife. With this, be cut off the legs of his boot and stocking,"and then uujointed his own ankles. This being done, he crawled to} his dinner basket, and binding up the stomp with a napkin which bad covered his dinner, he started upon hands and knees through the soow for home. When ho arrived within a few rods of hb house, he was discovered by some friends, who hastened to his relief. Hb strength was now exhausted. Help had4come and he fainted. He was borne to the house and resuscitated. Now comes the curious facts: and I will hero say that the gentleman who related the facts to me was present and went for the surgeon. *Go,' said tho wounded man, 'go immediately to the woods and cut out my foot, forit .is suffering most excruciating pain.' They did so, and brought the foot to the house. He then said it was cold, and wished it putjnto* warn* waters This request was also granted. . It was not ia tbo room in which the unfortunate man lay, yet ns soon as the foot touched the water he cried out, saying, ?It burns me; the water is too hot!' Upon putting the hand Into.the water it was found even so. The water was then made cooler, and he was satisfied. I wiU also add that a surgeon was obtained from Be tuvia, a distance of fifteen or eighteen miles; and the limb again amputated; the man recovered and became a preacher of the gospel in the Baptist Church," Elegance in Drrss is cheap and simple. What it costs a man for tphacco who uses it is suiliccnt, if added to the present cost of bis clothing to dress him with clcgaoee. A, few more shillings a yard for cloth, the work of a tasteful tailor, a decent regard to the prevailing mode, and a certain likeness and simplicity, is ull! Elegance i9 never gaudy, never outre, nevur out of fashion, nor in the extreme of fittkion. It allows of a few ornaments, and no studied display. The difference of a single dollar, in an article of dress, may make the ivhole distinction between elegance and vulgar* ty. A single tawdry ornament may spoil the effect of tho best tailor's workmanship. The .lightest eccentricity of cut betrays the inborn owdy. Instruction.?A tutor should not be cootinutlly thundering instruction into the ears of hi* jupil, as if he were pouring it through a funnel, >ut after having put the lad like a young horse, mi a trot, before him, to observe bis paces, and jee what he is able to perform should according ;o the extent of his capacity, induce him totasie, o distinguish, and to find out things for bimseift iomctimes opening the way, at other times l?iring it to him to open; and by abating or in:reusing his own pace accommodate his premnta t r\ tlio n a nunit ir nf KU nnnil w ?uw vo^ovivj ui mo iuvrwui^rwi Why are girlsljke cucnmberst Because wheq hey are l*rg$*<euough (hey are old enough.
