Aunt Patsy s Christmas Din ner. If there was anything on earth that ray aunt Patsy Clark had a natural affinity for, it was to have a turkey for her Christmas dinner. I don’t know whether she was predestinated to eat turkeys, or, whether they were predes tinated to be eaten by her, and I don’t know that I care, to any great extent, but one thing I do know: it was as naturnl for her and a turkey to come together about one o’clock on the Jst!i day of Deeemper as it is for a lawyer to take to lying. The children might go ragged and dirty, if necessary, und men hungry, on any other day, but it was well understood that she was not to be interfered with when her time came round. Indeed, it was said by the neighbors that the fattest gobbler on the farm would lie down and cross his legs without saying a word if he saw aunt Patsy start towards him on the day before Christmas! and I have it on the authority of her son, Tom, (who was never known to tell a lie !) that he had actually seen ’em walk up and lay their heads on the block whore my aunt usually executed her victims. -Bui posibly Tom may hare stretched a little. My aunt was a fat, good-na tured soul, and from some unexplained cause, always considered me an espe cial favorite, though for the life of me I can't tell what it was for, as I was the ten* »r of the entire household when I was there She used to say that she was glad when I and Tom got together; and profoundly thankful when we separated, for if we parted without having committed some devil merit she felt as if she had escaped a great calamity. Nevertheless she was certain to invite me over to spend the holidays with Tom, who was about a par with me, and it is of one of these occasions that I set out to tell. I m like the old preacher who spent an hour in making apologies before he began his sermon, and wound up by remarking that he diden’t like to hear a man make any preliminary retnaiks in the pulpit. Well, on flie morning of the 24th Tom was sent off’ early to the village store on some errand, while I was left lounging about, wishing for some mischief to do, when the old negro cook came into the room with the distressing anouucernent that the old gobbler, which had been fattening tor months, had been killed and partly devoured by a vicious hog that had broken into his turkeysbip’s pen the night before. l Tho Lord a massy!’ exclamcd my aunt, fanning herself vigorously, though the weat..er war old enough to freeze soft soap “What in the creation did you leave the pen open for, Dinah?’ ‘Clar to God I fastened’im up good only last night,’ replied the old negro, whose eyes resembled a dying calf’s. ‘I wish to gracious the turkey had been full of stride nine, or some other poison !' said aunt Patsy. ‘” r hen yon’d lost the turkey and hog both, aunt.* I ventured to aeinark. ‘Don't speak to me in a week San dy!’said she. ‘I never wa* so com pletely done up. Tnere ain,t another turkey on the plantation that’s lit lbr a hog to eat. What shall he done, Dina?’ ‘I spec you inns’ cook de ole hen, r eplied Dinah, scratching her woolly head in perplexity. ‘I spec you’re a fool !’ retorted my aunt, maddei than before, at the idea of having anything but a male turkey on her Christmas table. ‘I ain’t eat a Christmas dinner at home in forty years without turkey, and I’m not go ing to begin it in my old age.—Saedy. you must lide over to oid Miss Jones and buy me one.. She’s got a cowpen full, that she has fattened for market, and I know she’ll sell me one. Go quick, Sandy, there’s a good boy, and you shall have such a dinner as will bring tears to your eyes when you are an old man!’ Os course I couldn’t refuse, although I had a wholesome dread of Miss Jones, as my aunt called her, for she was one of them sort of women who can’t quit talking when she begins, but there was no help for it, so I mounted aunt Patsy’s favorite nag and set out, receiving a strict injunction from my aunt not to ride out of a walk, which command I obeyed by putting old Dolly to her level best as soon as I was out ot sight, and dashed up to Jones,’ in regular cavalry style. The old lady happened to be at the gate’ and opened on me as soon as I stopped. For the Lord’s sake, Sandy’,said she ‘what is the matter?’ ‘ The old boy’s to pay over at aunt Clarks’, and no mistake, said I, as I dismounted. ‘What is it ? who’s dead ?’ she in quired. The old sow has killed the christ mas turkey, and old Dinah has got a CARROLLTON, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 31, 1873. fit; and aunt Patsy’s gone crazy, and Toms gone to town after the doetor and I’ve come so buy a turkey,’said I, thinking I had as well put it on prett y thick, while I was at it. ‘bakes alive !’ said she, 'did the sow actually kill her turkey?’ es—ate her up clean, and is run ning about this morning with the old gobblers beard hanging from her un der lip, trying to gobble,’ said I, sol emnly. ‘Well, well,’ said she, that reminds me of what happened when our Sally was married. You seel had a gob bler in the pen that I’d kept up for— let me see-yes, it wasfullly five weeks, and I do expect he was the fattest fowl you ever sut eye* on. You've no idee how much corn and peas and stuff I'd fed to that turkey! well, as I was say mg the night before the wedding, af* ter I and rny ole man had gone to bed, I thought 1 heard a noise in the pen; so I says to the ole man, ses I, ‘ole man, thar’s something in that turkey pen.’ Os course the gobbler’s in tbar! He allers was the most aggravatin’ man you ever seen, was my ole man. But 1 kep’ bearin’ the noise, and I sorter hunched him with my elbow and ses I, ‘I tell you thar’r a varmint in that pen.’ Then the ole man got cross—and he allers was as cross as fish hooks, —and told me to go and bring the pen in the house, and lei him alone, so I knovved there was no use talking to him about it, but I couldent sleep, for I mistrusted some thing, and shore'enough* when I went out next morn in’ a triffiin’ leather eared ’possum or some other critter, had killed my turkey, and about half eat him up. I was so mad I could a cried, for I had nary nother turkey on the place that would do to eat, and I do think a wedden without a turkey is a bomination.’ Here the old lady stopped to get a good breath, and I asked her if she had a gobbler to spare for aunt Clark? ‘Well’ said she, leading the way to the back yard. ‘l’d do e’en a most anything to oblige sister Clark, and I ilo expect I’ve got the nicest passcl of turkeys you’ve seen in a coon’s age You seel,d heard that fat turkeys would bring a good price in Colum bus about Christmas: and as I'd set my head on having anew silk dress to take the shine out’n that stuck up M iss Mills, I thought I’d send my flock of fowls down thar and jist a bout buy the dress, but Jack tuck it into his head to git sick tother day, and I couldn’t get my turkeys car lied to market, and 1 do reckon I’ll have to wear my old dress all the win ter. Now,’ she continued, ‘I hain’t got but one gobbler, and you see he,B a fat one, and I spose 1 must let sister Clark have him.’ How old might he be ? I inquired, as I looked suspiciously at his scaly legs. ‘Well, let me see,’ said she, count rag on her lingers, ‘yes, that tur key wns hatched the year ole Tippe. Canoe was ’lectec !’ * ‘Why, good gracious aunt Jones, ,shat was eight years ago !’ said I. ‘Was it ?’ she inquiied, peeping oYer her spectacles; ‘well, so it was! Dear me ! how time does pass ofl ! But thar’s no mistake about, his age, for it was in the fall of the year, and I was down with the ager, and I do reckon the tiger was wuss about htue that year than il ever was before.— YouNeno idee how much quinine and other doctors stufl I swaWcred! Seems to me 1 can almost tatteit yet! Well, as I was sajing. I’d had the ager till I was so weak I could hardly lie down, when one day my ole man cum in abd ses he, Polly—he allers did call me Polly, my ole man did — so he ses, ‘Polly, that ole one-eyed turkey hen has got fourteen young ones.’ ‘You don’t say so ! ses I. Yes but I do,’ ses he, ‘and es thar’s any rooster among ’em 1 11 name him Tip. Y r ou see my ole man sot a grate store by ole Tip and Tyler, and so, sure enough he picked out the nicest looken gob bler in the lot, and named him Tip, and we’ve kept hinj til this blessed dev, out I tole my ole man that es we didn’t sell him he’d die on our han’s, and he sed he ’lowed so too, so I thought I’d send him to Columbus, but I s’pose I must let sister Clark have him.’ ‘Well,’ said I, ‘l’ll take him if he was born the year Alexander the Great was elected, for aunt Patsy can’t live through to morrow without a gobbler.’ So saying, I made a dash at the old relict of departed greatness, and before he had time to say ‘quit,’ I had the legs tied and was hurrying out of reach of t ne old lady’s tongue, for fear she’d think of something eke to say, which shu did, tor I rode off and left her just begining to tell me about the truoble she’d had with her fowls du ring the summer. I was glad to es cape, and hurried back to aunt Clark’s, and found her pacing the yard, look ing as mournful as if she’d just been invited to her giand-father’s funeral, and had no bonnet to wear. ‘Well, Sandy,’ said site, you got him did you?’ ‘Yes, and that ain’t all I got.’ ‘W hat else did you get, for good ness sake?’ she inquired. ‘Why, I got the history of the Jones family, man, beast and fowl, for the last thirty years,’ said I T ‘Well, ole Miss Jones is about the poorest hand to quit talkin’ I ever listened to; but is he fat?’ said she. ‘Fat! said I; ‘the like never was seen, I expect. Why. I could hear the fat sloshin’ about in him like soap suds as I rode along.’ ‘Thats a big—turkey!’ said she; ‘but he must be powerful old.’ ‘Hatched late last fall!’ said I, with out a smile. ‘But look at his spurs,’ she insisted. ‘lt’s anew breed; they have fulls grown spurs at six weeks old/ ‘Do tell!’ replied she, waddling off with her precious load, while I put up Dolly and went to the fire to warm, for my toes felt like they’d been quar ried from an iceberg, and my nose re sembled a full grown blood beet. That gobbler proved to be a job. After scalding him in a washing tub, as they would a bacon hog, they had to get the shoe pinchers to pull the feathers out with, and Tom declared that his mother had to send off after a nigger man with his broad-ax to make a hole in him. If any body had told me ii.at he was hatched the year John Adams was elected, I should have believed every word of it. But the animal was certainly fat, and as aunt Patsy had an oven big as a bass drum, I had no doubt but they would manage to prepare him for the table, somehow or other. That night, after Tom and I had gone to bed, Tom remarked: ‘Sandy, how the dingnation is that gobbler to be cut up to morrow?’ Wou and I’ll have to take the cross cut saw- to him,’ said I. ‘Hang the cross cut saw!’ replied he. ‘l’ve swore out from ever using that tool any more. But there must be some provision made for the job, and I can’t think of anything but the broad axe.’ ‘Tom !’ I exclaimed, ‘if you’ll agree to help meal’ll fix a way to carve that fowl, without much trouble. But who will be here to dinner?’ ‘Elder Snortem and Miss Peggy Skinner, that I know of,’ he replied Now, those two persons were my pet abominations. The Elder was a second Chadband, fat and greasy, who was eternally pitching into Tom and and me for our wickedness,,while Miss Peggy was like another of Dickens’ characters—‘too much of her length wise, two little of her crosswise, and too man) angles of her anglewise ; ’ and I may add that there was too much vinegar of her sourwise. She was as spiteful as a bee martin, and she made out that she would faint if a man only looked at her. Consequent ly, when Tom told me that they were to be among the guests, I told him just to hold still and give me a little assistance the next day and we’d fix things about light. Every thing and every body was kept in an uproar next day until dins tier time. My aunt declared that the more she cooked the turkey the tougher he got, while old Dinah was in a perfect fever at the failure of all her efforts to make an impression on the old gentleman. I and Tom, not being included in the kitchen fovee, were left to ourselves, which was just what I wanted, for I had a job of my own ou hand. Towards noon the El der came in, wiping his flabby face closely so lowed by Miss Peggy, and two or three others. Aunt Patsy, having seen the cooking fin ished and having given the finishing touch to the table, sat down to await the course of events, and regale her self w>th the Elder’s conversation. I kept an eye on the proceedings, and when I found that everything was on the table but the turkey, I sauntered into the kitchen, where If und old Dinah placing that gentleman on a huge dish, with about half a pnshel of fixings around him. In my pocket I had a two-ounce vial full of powder, stopped with a piece of spunk. Aunt Dinah,’ said I. that dish is too heavy for yon.’ Dat’s a fao’, chile,’ said she; ’my ole ban’s is so -haky I’se afread o spiffin’ it. Do you jes’ take it to de table keerfullv, while I’ nounce dinner.’ That was just what I wauted As soon as her back was turned I put fire to one end of my bottle-stop per. thrust the vial into the old gob blers inwards; and carried the dish to the table. By the time I had placed it to my liking, aunt marshalled in her guests, and to my great delight she placed the elder at the end of the table next the turkey, while Miss Peg. gy occupied a seat on his right, and 3 red headed son of the preacher sat on the left. I endeavored to excuse mys self and Tom, but she would not hear of it, ana insisted that we should sect ourseivs near her, so we had to take chances. After a grace from the elder as long as the book of Jeremiah, aunt asked him to carve the fowl. ‘Certainly’ sister Clark,’ said he; and I anticipate great pleasure in par taking of the good things the Lord has provided tor us.’ Old fellow, thought I, you’ll partake of something that somebody else has provided, if I ain’t badly fooled! I didn’t dare to look at Tom, but leaned back in my chair and awaited the course of events. Just as the elder made a lunge at the gobbler with his fork, there was an explosion like a six pound cannon, which sent the fork whirling to the ceiling, while a broad side ol the fowl*struck the elder abput the stomach, causing him to grunt like a poor hog after a nettle root, and there he sat’ his mouth open like a fox trap, his eyes running water, and saving never a word. My aunt gave a sharp ‘Oh, Lordy !’ and died away as easy as a yotrag duck in a hail storm. About half a gallon of the stuffinor struck Miss Peggy in the tace, giving her the appearance of a halt-finished stick and-dirt chimney, and causing her to squall as fast and sharp as a billy-goat with his head fast. The red headed youth had opened his mouth about three inches to gape, when a hind quarter of the old gobbler made a straight shoot for the opening, and tried to go down his throat without troubling his teeth, nearly choking him to death, and reminding me of a calf trying to swallow a corn cob. Old Dinah, who was just behind the elder,received the gobbler’s right shoul der about afoot below her chin, which appeared to give her the colic, for she doubled up like a snapping bug, put her hands just below her stomach, turned the whiles of her eyes to the moon, and went to groaning in con cert with the elder’s grunts, which got faster and louder, as he began to con sider the situation. Altogether, it was better than a circus, and the strangest part of it was, neither Tom nor myself received any injury, which affords another proof, I suppose, that the devil protects his own ! It took about an hour to restore or der, and then we had to eat without turkey, although there was a quantity of it left. Elder Snortem said it was a tiiek of Sateu to wean their minds from the lust of the flesh. Aunt Pat sy said nothing better could be expect ed of a turkey with a whig name; while Miss Peggy vowed it was done to insult her, whether anybody sus>. pected the truth or not I can’t tell, but I and Tom had a good laugh over our new plan of carving a turkey! Farmers’ Homes.— Frank D. Cur tis, in his address before the New York State Agricultural Society, said several good things in regard to farmers’ homes, but none more to the point than the following in regard to the location and surroundings of the dwelling: “ A house on a hill with no trees around it looks cheerless and unhomelike. Have grounds around the dwellings Tear away the fences ; they cost money and are useless, I mean fences shutting the house up as it there was danger of its running away. Let there be no less than an acre of door yard; ten will be better. Make a rich lawn of this and cut the grass. It can be no waste, but it will be a thing of beauty, and ‘ a thing of beauty is a joy forever.’ There need not be any loss to be tasteful; nature and beauty are synonymous; good tas e and economy can therefore be made, handmaids to each other. Set your fruit trees in this enclosure and dig around them with a spade each year, and top dress the hole, and they will grow finely, and the grass will grow luxuriantly, and the house will grow beautiful, the children will grow contented, the fathers and mothers as they grow old will grow happy, the neighbors will grow to emulate and to excel, the township will grow at tractive, and the young women will grow up to feel that there is no place after all like “ Home, Sweet * l oine.’ ” » SaT 1 A little girl was sent to the pasture to drive home the cow. While thus engaged she treated herself to climbing an unnecessary fence, from which she fell and was severely scratch ed and bruised. Returiug home she was asked if she cried when she fell. “ W’hy no,” she replied ; what would have been the use ; there was nobody to hear me Eaki.t Habits. —ln early childhood you lay the foundation of poverty or riches, in the habits you give your children. Teach them to save every thing-not for there own use, for that would make them selfish—but for some use Teach them to share every thing with their playmates, but never allow them to destroy any thing. How to be Polite. Do not try too hard to be polite. Never overwhelm your friends by begging them to make themselves ct home, or they will soon wish they were there. Show by vonr actions rather than your words that you are glad to see them. Have enough regard for yoarself to treat your greate-t enemy with qumt politeness. All petty slights are mere, 'ly meanness, and hurt yourself more than any one else. Do not talk about yourself or your family to the exclusion of other topics. What it you are clever, bo, sure other folks will think so \\ hatevei they v ought to do. It may be interesting for you to talk over your ailments, but very tiresome fer others to listen to. Make people think you consider them clever and agreeable, and they will be pretty apt to have a pleasant impression of yourself. Treat people just as you would like to have them treat you. It is much easier to lose the good opinion of people than to retain it ; and when one does not care for the good opiuion of others, he or she L not worthy of respect. Do not excuse your house, furui ture, for the table you set before your guests. It is fair to suppose their vis its are to you, not to your surround ings, The whole machinery of social in tercourse is very delicate and iutrb cate, and it is our business to keep all places of possible friction well supplied with the oil of politeness. Three Worth County Boys. TWENTY BALES OF COTTON. Douguerty, Dec. 10, 1872. Editor Albany News: Dear Sir: I have heard a great deal said about the hard times, and the hot torn rail getting on top, and I have been bothered to know what it all means. I think I have struck it, how ever. The wool nat boys and others who went to work after the surrender, are the parties that are getting on top and solving the vexed problem. They are the ones that are getting the greenbacks and greenbacks con stitute the lever that turns the wheel of fortune. I give one example: Three sons of Mr. T. J. H., of Worth county, this year, with two mules, raised 20 bales of cotton, and 700 bushels of corn, besides oats and potatoes in abundance. They paid out about §SO, for labor in chopping out and picking, and after settling all expenses, including bag ging, ties, bacon, &e.,they netted over §1,200 and are ready to begin another year’s labors. This is but one of many similar cx amples in Worth and Dooly counties that have fallen under my immediate observation this season, and it puts me in mind of old times, when boys had to work. I wish I had a daughter to give to one of these young ones when he gets old .enough to marry. The industrious, working faithful boys of this country are going to get on top, and no mistake. Labor and energy will there in spite of destiny. They will own the lands now growing up in sedge, and culti vate them too, for it is a fact, that where the white people are working and attending to their business, that freed men work well also, and such planters are making money. Ben and Buck. Since the above was in type, the writer informs us that two young gills of Worth residing near Gin Town brought to market, yesterday, the last of their crop—being the seventh bale. Only think of it young men—two girls produce seven bales of cotton, while you are lying round town wait ing for somebody to offer you a “situa tion.” O, what an opening there is in ag riculture. * JS" Buy a trunk, Pat! said a dealer. “ And what for should I buy a thrunk ? replied Pat. “To put your clothes in.” “And go naked?’’ exclaimed Pat; “not a bit of it.” CS“The work of a doctor fills six feet of ground, but the dentist fills an acher. - Wiliam, who is an undersized clerk in a dry goods store, objects to being refered to as that “little dry goods Bill.’’ ■ ®STN ever marry a woman until you know where her dress ends and her soul begins. —— In Navada a newly married couple had a quarrel, which resulted in the biide getting a good spankiug with a frying pan.
