WISCEUiAMEOrs. Laughter. Laughter very often shows the bright side of a man. It brings out his happier nature, andshows of wbat sort of stuff he is really made. Some how we feel as if we never thoroughly know a roan until we hear him laugh. We do not fc-el “at home” with him till then. We do not mean flfemere snigger, but a good hearty round laugh, solemn, sober visage, like a Sunday's drew, tells nothing of the real man. Ue may be. very silly or very profound, very cross or very jolly.— Let us hear him Jangh, and we can decipher him at once, and tell how his heart heats. Carlyle j says that “no man who has once heartily and wholly laughed, can be and irreclaima ble man. llow much lies in laughter —the ci- j pher-key wherewith we decipher the whole man! Some men wear an everlasting batreh 6troper; in the smile of others lies a cold glitter, as of ice; the fewest are able to laugh, but only sniff, and titter, and snigger, from the throat outwards, or, at best, produce some whiffling, husky eachination, as if they were laughing through woo!; of none such comes good. The man who cannot laugh is on ly fit for treasons, stratagems, or spoils; and his whole life is already a treason and a stratagem.” The Newsboy*. . We have received four different replies to the question, “What becomes of newsboys!” which wo were tempted to ask yesterday. Only one of them deserves notice, and its merits depend on the fact that it comes from one of the fraternity, and has every mark of being authentic. We sub join the following extract from it: “I’ll tell you all about the newsboy, I will. We don't die when we're done selliri’ pajiers —no, sir ree—we’re more particular, wide awake, than all that; and as for gwino to Heaven to cat buck wheat cakes—blessed if wo do—like the fire ’Ni liilator, that’s nil yax. We aint very anxious to leave the world, nor so green, old fellow, as you ’spose. When wo gets along considerable well, and have money to spare, we buys books, and reads ’em—more than some of you does —and then we take up with better work thnn soilin’ the papers, old hoss—we begin to go ahead. So, you never seed a newsboy, after he’s done soilin’ papers, in business or trade—no, now, didn’t you f Well, I did. I seen ’em in superfine coats, tip-top boots, and bang-up vest-coats, drivin’in carriages and likiV all creation in smartness. I seen ’em merchants, lookin’ ns tall as, a gas lamp, and thinkin’ themselves considerable pumpkins, I can tell you. Hut there’s one thing you nor I ever seed, and that’s a newsboy that ever turned loafer—what d’ye say to that/ Wo’ro indepen dent citizens of a flee country—wo are, and work’ for a livin’ like men, and when we stand treat to a friend, we never docs it with nobody else’s money but our own. Wo show what n free press and the American eagle chii do, ami wo get along like thunder when we have a mind to ; and that’s what becomes of the newsboys.”— N. 0. Delta. A Fair Okkku.—Dr. Franklin, it is said, once made the following oiler to a young inan : —“Make a full estimate of all that you owe and that is ow ing to you. As fart as you can collect pay over to those you owe. If you cannot, renew your noto every yesi, and get the last security you can. Go to business diligently aud be industrious; waste no idle moments; bo very economical in all things; pride; bo faithful in your duty to God; day; do unto all men as you would they should do unto you. If you are too needy in circum stances to give to the poor, do whatever else is in your power for them cheerfully ; but if you can, nelp tho poor and unfortunate. Pursue this course diligently for seven years, and if you are not happy, comfortahlo and independent in your circumstances, como to mo and 1 will pny your debts.” Young people try it. Dr. Abernathy, tho celebrated physician of London, it will bo remembered, was one of the roost eccentric men of his time. Few things dis pleased him more than having a patient giving tiresome accounts of his troubles. A woman knowing Abernathy’s love of the laconic, having 1 burnt her hand, called at his office. Showing him her hand, she said— “A burn.” “A poultice,” quietly answered tho learned Doctor. The next day tho woman returned and said, “Better.” “Continue tho poultice.” In a week she made her last call, and her speech was lengthened to threo monosyllables: “Well, your fee!” “Nothing,” said tho once pleased physician. “You are the most sensible woman I ever saw.’ Mistakks.—lt is a mistake for girls to suppose, became there is a “man in the moon,” that lie will fall in love with their “putty” faces. It is a mistake to suppose, because an honest, industrious young man is not a professional “char acter,” that he should not be respected. It is a mistake to suppose that money unac- 1 eompanied by brains and justice, should be” a pass- 1 port of true aristocracy. It is a sRd mistake to suppose that, because you 1 hate a “fellow mortal,” all other persons do the tamo. It is a mistake to suppose that all pretty gills are “angels,” for they arn’t by a darned sight It is an awful mistake to suppose that a printer an work for nothing and furnish his own tobacco. It is a great mistake, too, to supjiose that eve ry long-faced church member is a saint. In \ Dilemma.—We were much amused by an incident which a friend of ours related to ns the ether day. A gentleman who had been absent for a considerable time, and who, during his ab sence had raised a pretty luxuriant crop of whis kers moustaches, <fec. visited a relative, whose child—an artless little girl of five or six years he was very fond of. The littie girl made no de monstrations towards saluting him with a kiss as was usual. “Why, child,’ said the mother, “don’t you know your uncle Hiram ? Why don’t you give him a “Why, raa,” returned the little girl, with tho moat perfect simplicity, “I don’t see any place!” “Faith,” said Pat as he was going along the street with a bag of cheese. “Faith,” if any body will tell me how many cliasses I have iu me bag, HI give him the whole three. “I guess you have three,” said a Yankee. “Take them,” said Pat, “and may the devil mawl the sowl of him who towid ye.” s3T ,‘Shakspenro haunts me night and day,” said a stage-strutting here, “That he is so eternal ly haunted,” remarked a bystander, “is not be wondered at, at alt, for be has most cruelty mur dered him in orcrything he has undertaken.” ftnfirs Choate. M | Rufus Choate is a picture to look at, ’ crowder to spout, no is about seven feet six, wr six feet seven, in his socks; sujiie as an cel, and I wiry as a cork screw-. His face is a compound of wrinkles, “yaller janders,” and jurisprudence. Ha| j sha small, keen piercing black eves, and a Us' a i shaped like a mammoth goose egg, big end up 1 his hair, black and curly, much resembling a ba? lof wool in “admirable order,” or a brush heap in a !ga!c of wind. Ilis body lias no particular shape; and his wit and legal “dodges” have set many a Judge in a snicker and so confounded jurors, as to ! make it almost impossible for them to speak plain English, or tell the truth for the rest of their na tural lives. Rufus is great on twisting and rolling himself up, squirming around, and prancing jump ing, and kicking np the dust, when steam’s up.— llis oratory is first rate, nnd Ills arguments inge nins and forcible. He generally makes a ten strike —judge rad jury down at the end of every sen tence. lie is great on flowery expressions, and high faloolin “flub dnbs.” Strangers mostly think he’s crazy, and the rest scarcely understand what its all about lie invoices his time and election 4,000 per cent over ordinary charges for haring one’s self put through a course of law. Rufus Choate is about fifty years of age.'perhaps over. — He is considered the ablest lawyer in New En gland, or perhaps; in the United States. Ilis j hand-writting can’t be deciphered without the aid |of a pair of compasses and a quadrant. His an tograpby somewhat resemplcs the map of Ohio, and looks a spiece of crayon sketching, done in the dark, with a three pronged fork. Has has been in the Semite, and may he, if he has time to fish for it, President of tho United States. The Rnby-Jfuinper beat. Some cute yankec in Boston has invented and brought out a grand concern for nursing infants, You put your squaller into tho machine, and, by a scries of straps, cogs, and screws, agitated by the spasmodic splurges of the infant’s arms and legs, the machine rolls gently over the floor, while a species of hand organ music is emitted, equalling ten penny-whistles and a dozen baby’s rattles. If this fails to amuse the little “sugar-lump,” you may turn a screw and set it in motion a manipula tor, something like a human hand which “by by’s”the “madder’s l>ox of diamonds,” tickles and pats it until it roars with laughter or goes to sleep! We believe the inventor intends to make sundry additions to his baby-nurser, whereby it may dress and undress the youngster, feed it, wash it, Ac.— If thoso Yankee keep on a spell longer, the men may, shut np shop nnd go a fishing, while the wo men lie back in white kids and play overtures on the accordian or piano. This equals the patent “clequer,” and knocks the telescope, for seeing through a brick, into tne “Fourth of July.” Tile Life of an Editor. There are few readers of newspapers who have any adequate idea of the incessant toil required in their publication. Capt. Marry att, who in his life time had much bitter experience, held the follow ing language on the subject: “Newspaper literature is a link in the great chain of miracles which prove the greatness England, and every support should be given to newspapers. The editors of these papers perform a most enormous task. It is not tho writing of the leading articles every week, whether inclined or not, in sickness or health, in affliction, disease of mind, winter or summer, year after year, tied down tea task, remaining iu ono spot. It is like hours. In itself, it appears nothing. The labor is not manifest, nor is tho labor, but it is tho con tinued attention which it requires, Your life be comes, ns it were, the publication. One paper is no sooner corrected and printed than another comes. It is the stone of Sisyphus, nil endless re petition of toil, a constant weight upon the mind, a continual wearing upon the intellect and spirits, demanding all the exertion of your faculties at the same time that you are compelled to do the severest drudgery. To write for a paper is very well, but to edit one is to condemn yourself to slavery.” Fortune-Tbluko. —There is nothing more silly than a belief in fortune-telling, whether we consider the thing itself, or the description of persons who profess the art—an art to which no one of character or education ever pretends. But such belief is scarcely- less dangerous than silly, es pecially amongst young persons of the humble classes. By exciting false hopes, it leads to false steps; and unsettled habits, anxiety, disappoint ment, dishonesty, ruin, and ignominious death, have been directly or indirectly its consequences. Many are induced to have their fortunes told from mere idle curiosity; hut a lucky guess, or a pre diction aceideutly verified even in part, may- take such hold of the imagination that reason cannot resume her former sway—beside that it is inexcu sable to give encouragement to a raco of profli gates, thieves and children-stealers. £jrA writer says women require more sleep than men; and farmers less than those engaged in almost any other occupation. Editors, nnd re porters, and doctors need no sleep at all. Lawyers can sleep as much as they pleasa and thus keep oat of mischief. Clergymen can sleep twelve hours out of twenty four and can put the parish to sleep once a week. IC-tTAn auctioneer indulged in the following little bit of tho pathetic;—“Gentlemen, if my fa ther and mother stood where you do, and didn’t buy these elegant boots’ when they were going for one dollar, I should feel it my duty ns a son to tell them both that they were false to themselves and false to their country.” jtrT A Yankee is never upset by the astonish ing. He walks among tho Alps with his hands in his pockets, and the smoke of his cigar is seen among tho mists of Niagara. “One of this class sauntered into the office of tho lightning telegraph, and asked how long it would take to transmit a message to Washington. “Ten minutes,” was the reply. “I can’t wait,” was the rejoinder. S&T A young gentleman who has just married an undersized beauty, says that she might have been made taller and larger, but that she is of such precious materials, nature could not afford it jCJTAn editor “out west,” in speaking of a co temporary, says, that “To see him swell you would swear he had been weaned on wood-cock: and yet the time has been when ho could “bury- a waxy tater without salt” ‘ Jl US’ One poor beau told another that his new coat was too short for him. “True,” answered he of the short skirts: “I assure you, however, it will be long enough before I get another.” jC-tTTho maiden wept; and 1 said, “Why weepest thou, maiden ?” She answered not* nei ther did she speak, but sobbed exceedingly, andk again asked, “why weepest thou!”—-when she said, “ What's that to you? mind your own bio, sittess!” -M La '* ) 3 HT \ SpjSSiplU 1 , r ‘ idjrVC V -*,W “ n “3 tiJPVpertvof ■ ‘XaJS > fi fa from .Mario rlfcupefior r Jjdft r,favor of Qbediftii B.
