A Correspondent of the Washing ton Capital thus write* of an incident on the Boston and Albany Railroad, wliieh occurred not many weeks ago. I ran across what first struck me as a very singular genius on my road from Springfield to Botiton. This was a stout, black whiskered man who sat immediately in front of me, and who indulged from time to time, iu the most strange and unaccountable maneuvers. Every now and then he would get ap and hurry away to the narrow passage whichleads tothedoorin these drawing room cars, and when he thought himself secure from observation would lull to laughing in the most violent manner, arid continue the healthful exercise until he was as red in the face asalob ster. As we neared Boston these demon strations increased in violence, save that the stranger no longer ran away to laugh, but kept his seat and chuck led to himself, with his chin down in his shirt collar. But the changes that those portmanteaus underwent. He removed them here, there, lie put them behind him.—lie was evidently get ting ready to leave, but as we were twenty-five miles from Boston, the idea of such early preperation was ridicu lous. If we had entered the city then the mystery would have remained un solved, lint the stranger became so ex cited that he could keep his seat no longer. Softie one must help him, and as I was the nearest to him he selected j me. Suddenly turning as if I had asked a question, he said, rocking himself to and fro in the chair meantime, and slapping his legs to gether and breathing hard: “Been gone three years !” “ Ahr “ Yes, been in Europe, Folks don’t expect me for three months yet, but I telegraphed them at the last station; they’ve got it by this time.” As lie said this he rubbed his hands and changed the portmanteau on his left to the right, and then one on the right to the left again. “Got a wife?” said I. “ Yes, and three children;” he return ed. He then got up and folded his over coat anew, and hung it over the back of his seat. “You are pretty nervous over the matter, aint you? ’ I said, watching his fidgety movements. “Weil, I should think so,” he re plied, “I hain’t slept soundly for a week. And do you know,” he went on, glancing around at the passengers and speaking in a low tone, “I am al most certain this train will run oft* the track and break my neck before I get to Boston. Well, the fact, is I have had too much good luck for one man lately. The thing can’t last; tain’t natural that it should, you know, I’ve watched it. First it rains, then it shines, and then in rains again. It rains so hard you think it's never go ing to stop; then it shines so bright you think it’s always going to shine; and just as you are settled in either belief, you are knocked over by a change to show that you know noth ing about it.” “Well, according to philosophy,” I said, “ you will continue to have sun shine, because you are expecting a storm.” ,‘ It,s curious,” he returned, “but the only thing which makes me think I shill get through safe, is be cause I think I won’t.” “Well, this is curious," said I. “Lord, yes,” he replied. “I am a machinist—made a discovery—nobody believed in it—spent all my money trying to bring it out—mortgaged my home—all went. Everybody laughed at me—everybody but my wife— spunky little woman—said she would work her sing rt oil’ before I should give it up. Went to England—no better success there—came within an ace of jumping off London bridge.— Went into a workshop to earn money ‘enough to come home with—there I met the man I wanted. To make a long story short, I’ve brought £ 50, 000, and the best of it is she don’t, know anything about it I’ve fooled her so often and disappointed her so much, that I just coi.eluded I would say nothing about this. When I got my money, though, you better believe I struck a bee iina for home.” “ And now, 1 suppose, you will make her happy.” “Happy,” lie replied, “why, you don’t know anything about it. She’s worked like a clog since I have been gone, trying to support herself and the children decently. They paid her thirteen cents apice for making white shirts, and that is the way she’d live half the time. She 11 come down to the depot to meet me in a gingham dress, and a shawl a hundred years old, and she'll think she’s dressed up. Oh, she won’t have no old clothes after this—oh, no, I guess not ?” CARROLLTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 8, 1872. And with these words, which im plied that his wife's wardrobe would soon rival Queen Victoria’s, the stran ger tore down the passage way again, and getting in his old corner, where he thought himself out Os sight, went through the strangest pantomine I laughing, putting his mouth into the drollest shape, and then swinging him j back and forth in the limited | space as it he were “walking down Broadway’ a full rigged Metropolitan belle. So on till we rolled into the depot, and 1 placed myself on the other car, opposite the stranger, who, with a portmanteau in his hand, descended and whs standing on the lowest step, ready to jump to the platform. I looked from his face to the faces of the people before us, but saw no sign, of recognition. Suddenly he cried. “ There they are !” Then he laughed outright, but in a Hysterical sort of way, as he looked over the crowd. I followed his eye, and saw some distance back, as if crowded out and shouldered away by the well dressed and elbowi ig throng, a little woman in a faded dress, and a well worn hat, with a face almost painful in its intense but hopeful ex pression, glancing rapidly from win dow to window as the coaches glided iu She had not yet seen the stranger but in a moment after she caught his eye, and in another instant he had jum ped to the platform witli his two port manteaus, and making a hole in the crowd, pushing one here and there, and running one of his bund es plump into the well developed stom che of a venerable looking old gentle.nan in spectacles, he rushed toward the place where she was standing. I think I never saw a face assume so many dif ferent expressions in so short a time as did that of the little woman while her husband was on his way to her. She didn’t look pretty; on the con trary, she looked very plain, but some how I felt a big bump rise in my throat as I watched her. She was try ing to laugh, but God bless her, how completely she failed in the attempt. Her mouth got into the position, but it never moved after that, save to draw down at the corners and quiver, While she blinked her eyes so last that i I suspect she only caught occasional glimpses of the broad shouldered fel low who elbowed bis way so rapidly toward her. And then as lie drew close and dropped those everlasting portmanteaus, she just turned com pletely round, with her back toward him, and covered her hands. And thus she was when a strong man gath ered her up in his arms as if she she had been a baby, and held her sobbing to his breast. There were enough gaping at them heaven knows, and I turned my eyes away a moment, and I saw two boys in threadbare roundabouts standing near, wiping their eyes and noses on their little coat sleeves, and bursting out anew at every fresh demonstration of the part of their mother. When I looked at the stranger again he had his hat drawn over his eyes ; but his wife was looking up at him, and it seemed as if the pent up tears of those weary months of waiting were streamed through her eyelids. Debut of an American Prima Donna in Italy, II Monao Teatrale contains the fol lowing complimentary notice of the debut of an American prima donna in Italy on the 14th of January: A young American prima donna has just made her debut at Vercelli, Italy, with the greatest success. Tin opera was “Beatrice de Tenda,” by Beltini. Miss Brush, who, by the wav has not changed her naifte, as mam do who commence their career abroad personated the principal role and de lighted a very numerous audience by the beauty of her voice and the case and elegance of her manner. It seem, ed impossible to many that this was her first appearance, so truthfully did she depict the beautiful but unfortunate Beatrice. Miss Brush, who has stud ied both at Milan and Paris, and had from her fine voice and great beauty of person excited much curiosity in re gard to her debut-, deserves all the greater credit for the success she has made, by beginning in a city where she was quite unknown, and where naught but real merit would gain ap plause. We predict for her a fine career, and she adds an other name to the list of American prima donna who are singing successfully abroad. An Irishman having jumped into the water to save a man from drown ing upon receiving a quarter of a dol lar from the person as a reward for the service, looked first at the money and then at him, and at last exclaimed “I’m overpaid for the job.” A Secret for Women. Many women, who, before marriage made it their study to please the eves of the men they wished to marry, lose their affection after marriage by care lessness in dress. Men are fastidious in this matter. Even those who are careless in regard to their attire. They miss those coquettish garments, the neatly dressed hair, and all the thou sand tasty and fanciful little articles With which young women adorn them selves, more than they would be wil ling to allow. The neatness and or der which charmed them, too often gives place to a slovenly morning grown, frowsy hair, slipshod and un heed shoes, and the like. Men rea son that they should have the same desire to please the man they have chosen after marriage as well as before it. Ihe last new song loses its charm coming from the lips of a slattern. The poetry goes out of life at a glance, and the household loses its brightness. The wife Who, on account of household cares, neglects her per sonal appearance, commits a grave mistake, which, too often, bears bitter fruit, and they see their husbands leave their society for that of others, with out really knowing the cause, and most men are t o proud to tell them. Let women a'ways give the same care to their dress after marriage which they give it before, ami not rush from the ■room to “dress up” only when there is a prospect of “company.” Let them consider that which gives them a charm in the eyes of their friends, has a like'effect upon a husband, and they will -ee that he will not have so many pressing business calls “down town in the evening , but will have the same delight in their society as in their days of courtship.— -Clayton Times. Haste and Health. It is not at all wholesome to be in a hurry. Locomotives have been report ed to have moved a mile in a minute for short distances'. But locomotives have often come to grief by such rap idity. Multitudes in their haste to get rich are ruined every year. The men wiio do things mrturely, slowly, deliberately, are-the men who oftenost succeed in life. People who are habit uahy in a hurry generally have to do things twice over. The tortoise beat the hare at las*;. Slow men seldom knock their brains out against a post,- Eoot races are injurious to health, as are all forms of competitive exercise : steady labor in the field is the best gymnasium in the world. Either la bor or exercise, carried to exhaustion or prostration ; or even-great tiredness expressed by “lagged out,” always does more harm'thau the previous ex ercise lias done good All running up stairs, to catch up with a vehicle or ferry-boats, are extremely injurious to every age and sex and condition of life. It ought to be the most pressing necessity whieh should induce a per son over fifty to run twenty yards.— Those live longest who are deliberate, whose actions arc measured, who never embark in any enterprise without “sleeping over it, and who perform ail the every-day acts of life with calm ness. Quakers are proverbially calm, quiet people, and Quakers are a thrifty folk, the world over.— Dr. Hall Don Piatt tells the following touch ing story of how a life was saved: “A Sunday School superintendent out in Alaska treated his entire charge to a sleigh ride .There were just fortv one of the cherubs and a six-horse sleigh. On the way home they were beset by a pack of wolves. - Cool and collected in that hour of fearful tiial, the heroic superintendent at a glance saw that he must be overtaken. In an instant his quick mind grasped the only chance of escape. Seizing a child that always sang “1 want to be an an gel,” two notes too high, heflimg it to the rapacious horde. It stayed their onward rush for a moment. Next came the urchin who never brought any pen nies forthe heathen. And so on swept the pursued and the pursuers, until the last infant was exhausted. But the brave fellow had economized his ma terialnobly. He was saved. SkiF* An editor and his wife were walking out in tire bright moonlight one evening. Like all editor’s wives, she was cf an exceedingly poetic na ture, and said to her mate: “Notice that moon ; how bright and calm, and beautiful! ’ “ Couldn’t think of no ticing it,” returned the editor, “for anything less than the usual rates—a dollar and fifty cents for twelve lines.” — lndex. Avery modest young lady, who was a passenger on board a packet ship, it is said, sprang out of her berth and jumped overboard, on hearing the cap tain, during a storm, order the mate to haul down the sheets. What Dickens Did. Ihe L mdon Times closes a very elaborate review of Mr. Foster’s book witii this tribute to the genius of ; Charles Dickens: Before the power of his pen inanV an old iniquity, whether it existed in spite of law, or pleaded an immunity sanction ed by law for its continuance, went down and was extinguished forever. M here are all the Yorkshire schools which starved so many “ Sinikes,” a n <3 where those Ecclesiastical Courts un- i der the ermine of which such legalized injustice was perpetrated? They ex ist no longer, and to their extinction the lmmor ot Dickens mainly contrib uted. There are things so odious that }ou have only to point them out and they cease to exist; to mock at them arid they are extinguished forever. So it was with Dickens. He pointed them out and they vanished; he laugh ed at them and the world beheld them no more. That he was often vulgar in manners and in dress, and often overbearing; that he was ill at case in the intercourse with gentlemen; that he preferred being a King in very low company; that even in his early davs he lived rather in a clique than in so ciety; that he was something of a Bo- I iiemian in his best moments—all these j are truths affecting the private char acter of the mati and his social posi tion, hut ot little worth when weigh ed against the transcendent merit °of his works. Such as he was, we in our generation are never likely to behold his equal. Henry Clay and the Billy Goat, h ormerly a very large, well-known, and formerly noted billy goat roamed at large in the streets at Washington, and the newspaper boys, bootblacks, and street imps generally made com mon cause against him. Henry Clay never liked to see dumb animals abused or worried, and on one oeca si on while, passing down the avenue, a large crowd of these mischievous ur chins were at the usual sport. Mr. Clay, with his walfcTng stick, drove them away, giving them a sound lec ture meanwhile. As they scattered and scampered in every direction.— Billy seeing no one but Mr. Cloy with in reach made a 'charge on him. Clay dropped his cane and caught his goat ship by the horns. The goat would rear up, beino- nearly as high as the tall Kentuckian himself, and the latter would pull him down again. This sort ol sport became tiresome, and he could conceive of no way by which he could tree himself from his two horned dilemma, so in his desperation, he sang out to the boys to know what to do. One of the smallest in the crowd shouted back : Let go and run, you fool!” Clay always "maintained that though, he signed, the treaty of of peace at Ghent, that ragged* boy knew more than he did. How to Avoid a Bad Husband. L Never marry for wealth. A wo man s life consisteth not in the things she possesses. 2. Never marry a fop who struts about dandy-like in his gloves and ruffles, with a silver-headed cane and rings on his finger. Beware ! there is a trap. 3. Never marry a niggard, close-fis ted, mean, sordid wretch, who saves every penny, or spends it grudging. Take care lest he stint you to death. 4, Never -marry a person whose char aeter is not known or tested. Some females jump into the fire with their eyes wide open. ■5. N ever marry a mope or a drone, one who draggles through life, one toot after the other, and lets things take their own course. 6. Never marry a man who treats his mother or sister unkindly or indif ferently. 7. Never on any accout marry a gambler, a profane person, one who in the least speaks lightly of God or re ligion.—Such a man cun never make husband. 8. Never marry a sloven, a man who is negligent ot his person or his dress, is filthy in bis habits. The external appearance is an index to the heart. A New Anecdote of Washington. —Dr. Lieber has anew story of Washington, coming to him from France through Laboulave, that if not true certainly deserves to be. Jefferson was of French views and ideas of poli tics and everything else, he zealously attacked the system of two houses of Congress. General W ashington re plied that Jefferson was much better informed than himself upon such top ics, but that he himself would adhere to the experience of English and American history. “You, yourself,” said the General, “have proved the excellence of two houses, this very moment. ’ “J” said Jefferson, “how is that ? ” “ You have replied the he roic sage, “ poured your hot tea from the cup into the saucer to cool it. It is the same thing we desire in the two houses.” Girls Don t TalJfc Slang. Girls don’t talk slang! If it is ne cessary that aftv one in the family should do that, let it be your big broth er, though I would advise him not to adopt “ pigeon English ” when there fs an elegant systemized language that |he can just as well use. But don’t you do it. You can have no idea how it sounds to cars unused or averse to it, to liear a young lady when she is asked if she will go with you to ! some place, answer, “Not much ” or, if’ requested to do something which she does not wish, to say “ Can’t see it.” Not long ago I heard a young miss, who is educated aftd accomplished, in speaking of a man, say that she intend ed to “go for him!” and when her sister proffered her assistance at some work, she answered, “ Not for Joe !’* Now young ladies of unexception able character and really good educa tion, fall into this habit, thinking it shows smartness to answer back in siang phrases; and they soon slip flip pantly from their tongues with a eauev pertness that is neither ladylike ndr becoming. “ I bet ”or “ you bet ”is well enough among those who are trading horSes or land; but the con trast is startling and positively shock ing to hear those words issue from the lips of a young lady. They seem at once to surround her with the rougher associates or men’s daily life; and bring her down Rom the pedestral of purity, whereon she is placed, to their coarse level. £&"* The Rome Courier says : On Monday night llie forty-ninth anniver sary of the marriage of Mr. Asa R Smith, his children and grand children in Rome, provided a very pleasant sur prise for him. On Monday morning Captain R. D. Clarke visited him at his house to spend the afternoon, and take tea. As soon as the old gentle man was well out of the way, his de scendants crowded into his house, stocked the storeroom with bags of coffee, sugar rice, flour, Ac., put a new stove in the parlor, filled the fire with coal, deposited presents in all parts of the house, aiid prepared a sumptuous supper. They sent Tor Mr. Smith, begging him to return from Captain Clarke’s to his own house, :ts there was some ’company awaiting him there. When “he reached his home he found a crowd of forty-one of his children and grandchildren awaiting him. Amid a scene of hap piness, this family party, from the wee baby of six months of age, to the patriarch of four score, sat down to the bountifully prepared repast. This being concluded, the little folks march ed up to the grandfather and each gave him a gold dollar piece; then the older ones came with five dollar pieces, and so on until a hundred dollar bill formed the climax.— The occasion was a festive and hap py one, and many a day will pass be fore those present will forget it. It is sweet to grow old, when old age brings such joys as these.— Dome Courier 20 th ult. That’s All Right. How many of us use this expression a dozen times a week, and have it to stick in the throat, at least half of them. It i| coming to be hypocriti cal appendage of business and special intercourse. A sponger goes behind the counter and cuts Off a dime’s worth of tobacco or cheese with an excuse that he wants to “sample it,” and the grocery man says, “that’s all right.” A church member puts his name down for twenty five dollars to pav the preacher, and when called on gives only ten dollars, with the re mark that “the times are hard,” and the person says, “that’s all right.” A loaler makes a regular practice of coming into a printing office and begging a copy of the paper stating that he “just wants to read it,” and the edition is short; and the editor groans with ghaslty politeness, “that’s all right.” An extravagant debtor tells a pa tient creditor every time he meets him that he intends to pay that ac count, “to-morrow, certain,” and the poor dun turns off with “tbats all right.” And so it goes. It’s all wrong, and we say it’s all right, and by our want ot spirit and independence encourage laziness, imposition, stinginess, and every other sin under heaven. vannah Advertiser.
