We asked for an explanation. “Why, when the Yankees first be* can to settle hers, he was joined by a slapsided specimen of’em, as he was picking up the quills that his geese had dropped iu their chattering morning waddles, by the edge of an oblong pond at the roadside. Presently one of the geese stretched out his long neck at the Yankee, who started and ran as if a mad dog were at his heels. ‘I dold him/ said the old Dutchman, ‘not to be avraid; dat de geese wouldn’t hurt urn any; butde geese did run after him, dough, clear over the hill, and none of um wouldn’t give um no rest any more ; whenever lie came along the street, I believe dey had a spite agin de Yankees. Mein gracious ’ its curious, dough, dal de geese always went away, and didn’t come back any more !’ The secret of that was that the Yan kee, who was so afraid of the Dutch man’s geese, had thrown out kernels of corn, among which was one with a fish-hook attached. Once swallowed, the angry goose was in tow ol the fly ing fugitive. Indorsing a Story. — A Yankee, Tiding in a railroad car seemed particu larly disposed to astonish the other passengers with tough stories. At last he mentioned that one of his neighbors owned an immense dairy, and made a million pounds of butter and a million pounds of cheese yearly. The story produced some sensation, and the Yan kee perceiving that his veracity was in danger of being questioned, appealed to a ftiend as follows : “True, isn’t it Mr.*P ? I speak of Deacon Brown.” “\-e-s,” replied the friend, “that is, I know Deacon Brown, though I don’t know as I ever heard precisely how many pounds of butter and cheese he made a year ; but I know he has twelve ga\v mills that all go by butter-milk,.” A Moßieron her Muscle. One of the traveling agents of this paper relates the following incident that happened this week at Clinton, in this State, and which he saw : Mrs. Trent is an old lady, residing in Wapello, De Witt county, and blessed witij a daugh ter of marriageable age. Now, this (laughter fell in love with a young man named Hickman, and the twain pres ented themselves before the old lady, asking her blessing on their nuptials.— The venerable dame didn’t bless worth a cent, but drove the young man offde claring that he should never have her daughter; firsifv because he was too small ; secondly, because he iiad a red head. The young mar. offered to col or his poll any tint the old lady might wish—black, gray, or green, but she would none of him, and drove him off. It Hickman was small, he was also brave, and he resolved to wed his ehariner or perish in the attempt, and so they started to run away to Indiana. The old lady was on the watch at the depot, at Wapello, and Hickman find ing that he could not get on the train there, hired a young man named Mari on Swangan, to take them to the next station, Clinton, where they arrived, safely, obtained the necessary papers and finding the train behind them, tliey feared the old lady might turn up, and so were married at daylight. Mrs. Trent finding that they had gone to Clinton, sued out a capias before Jus tice Flowers, placed it in the hands of constable Thomas, and together they started to Clinton to arrest Hickman fora debt he owed the old lady. Up on their arrival in Clinton they found the happy couple in the depot waiting for the down train to go to Indiana.— The old lady’s long pent up rage burst forth when she found that her daughter was married Mad ? A righteous in dignation was no where ! She loved her daughter, and loving her, proceeded to put in requisition old Father Solomon’s recipe. In slang phrase, “she went lor her.” She Hew at the new made Mrs. Hickman, radiant with bridal blushes, pulled off her chig non, snatched down her back hair, ru ined anew bonnet, woman like scratch ed her face, and then wraked Iter ven geance on her clothes. First, she tore her dress oil, and then snatched away her hoope. A second clutch and away went her corsets. And she finished by leaving the trembling wife standing in a heap of torn calico with nothing on but her shoes and stockings, and one thin cotton garment, name unmention able to ear? polite, and even that was badly torn in front, and wretchedly split up the hack. Hickman had neen standing in the custody of the constable while this scene was going on. love for his new made wife and filial respect ior his mother-in-law, strung’ing in his bosom. But when he saw the charms of his dulctnea thus rudely exposed to the gaping gaze of the train boys and loalers oCClinton, his blood gotup. and he darted the rescue. But, bless you he was nowheri. In sporting parl ance, one “kisser” from his mother-in law’s “bunch of fives,” smote his “right peeper” and closing it, “sent him to grass.” He retired and “threw up the sponge.” This little diversion ex hausted the rage of Mrs. Trent, and her daughter, sending for a paper of pins, fixed up her torn garments, and wrap ping a large shawl about her, returned to Wapello ; where may she live happy and rear un a family in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, is the wish of this editor. —Peoria (///.) Transcript. Eong SerinoiiN A clerical correspondent says: “If we would only take the trouble to re member how we felt twenty, or thirty or forty, or fifty years ago when we were listeners, how we endured very patiently the first quarter ol an hour, ltow, very soon after that, the eyes would wander to the clock; how by turns, we would grow impatient and ashamed of our impatience, angry- and ashamed of out anger, sleepy and as hamed of our sleepiness; how ? mad temptation would flash over us to fling a book or a cricket at the head of the unwearied sermonizer and stop his ceas eless flow; how we would settle down into a sort of numb and listless despair somewhat akin to that which the ship wrecked mariner ot the storm-bound traveller must experience when all hope is gone; if we would only call these things to mind, we would no longer dare to so tempt the good nature and Christian endurance of our patient hear ers Sunday- after Sunday.” Per contra, another correspondent says: “A lawyer who consumes three hours in arguing a question of law re lating to the ownership of a barrel of apples, is indignant at his minister for exceeding twenty-five minutes in un folding one of the great principles of morality on whose observance the tol erable existence of society depends - The judge, who fills two hours with his ‘opinion, An the right of the counsel to challenge a witness, grumbles at his minister because he has prolonged the discussion of fundamental laws of hu man progress to thirty minutes. The physician, whe takes ten minutes to prepare the medicine for a headache, is nervously restive if his minister spends only twice as many in attempting to relieve a chronic heartache. The belle who has spent —how long? in adjusting the bows of her bonnet, (? ) is remorse less in her criticism on the minister who does not finish his meditation on the fatherhood ot God in fifteen minutes. — The fop, who has combed, and stroked, and perfumed, and waxed his beard and moustache for half an hour, is mor tified past endurance if the poor min ister is not through his discussion of the irumorialltfe ‘inside of twenty-five minutes,” CARTERSVILLE, GA., FEBRUARY 7, 1808. Angling for Dog. Brick Pomuroy tells the following: Another time we were traveling on grounds we had no right to tramp over. The only excuse was like that of mili tary necessity—it was better fishing through the farm where the trout had been preserved than in the open lots where all could fish. It was early morning. We had ris en at three, ridden then miles, and struck the creek as the trout were ready for breakfast. Looking careful ly for a sheltered plane to hitch our horses, we slyly crept up befind fences, etc., till we reached of the stream not generally fishAL , A farm house stood a quarter of a mile away. We saw the unrning smol# curling lightly from a stove pipe—saw a man and two boys come out to do chores—saw two women busy abojit the door, and a ferocious buU-ung wandering abmjtrthe y ard. If ever «t? fished close it was then. Not a whis per to disturb the birds, or the owner of the land. We crawled through the grass—dodged behind dumps of al ders, and lifting large speckled bean ties out of the water till our basket was full. This was the time to have gone ; but the trout were so large and hit so read ily, that we could not withstand the temptation, so we decided to string and hide wiiat we had, and take another basketful. fc'o at it we went. No sooner would the hook touch the wa ter than we had a trout. We forgot the house, the man, the boys and the dog! Suddenly there was a rushing through an oat field, as if a mad bull were com ing ! We looked toward the house, and saw the farmer and his two hoys on a fence, the woman in the door and the bull-dog hounding toward us. We saw it all, we had been discovered. — The well-trained dog had been sent to hunt us out, and, as the matter appear ed, it was safe to bet he was doing that ! thing right lively. To out run a dog was not to be thought of. There was no time to losp. Heeleared a fence, came for us just as we reached a front seat on a limb above his reach. Here was a precious go! a vicious bull-dog under the tree, and a farmer and two big boys ready to move down on our works. It was tight, foot race or far.gs ! The fanner yelled out to his dog— ‘watch him, Tige!’ Tige proposed to do that little thing, and keeping his eyes on us, seated himself undei the tree. Then spoke this ugly farmer man— ‘Just hold on thar, stranger, til! we get breakfast; then we’ll come and see you! If yon are in a hurry, however, you can go now ! Watch him. Tige !’ We surmised trouble—very much : for twice had that bold man of bull dogs and agriculture elegantly wollop ed innocent tourists for being on his suburban premises. His reputation as a peace man was not good ; and there arose a large heart toward our throat ! Time is the essence of contracts, and the savage ordinance for those in trouble. We had a stout line in our coat pocket and a large hook intended (or rock bass if we failed to take trout. And, as good luck would hive it, we had a nice sardwich and a piece of boiled corn beef in our other pocket. We called the dog pet names, but he wasn’t on it ! Then he tried to move down—when he’d move up ! At last we trebled our bass line, fastened the great limerick to it, baited it with the corned beef, tied the end of the line to a limb, and angled for dog ! Tige was in appetite. He smelt of the beef; it was very nice. He swal lowed it, and sat still with his eyes on us lor more, but with no friendly look beaming from his countenance. Not any ! When we pulled gently on the line— it was fast, Tige yanked and pulled, hut it was no use! The attention of the canine was diverted from us—his business was beirg done by another line ! We quickly slid down the tree— coming near blistering our backs doing it—seized the basket and pole, and straightway went thence somjewhat lively. We fouud our string of fish and reached the buggy and a commanding spot in the road, in time to see the sturdy yeoman move fourth. We saw him and his cohorts, male and female, move slowly, as il no haste. We saw them look up the tree We saw an anxious group engaged about the dog. We caine quickly home, and kindly left the bass line and hook to the farmer. A Sheriff’s Attachment- Court was in session and amid the multiplicity of business which crowded apon him at term time, he stopped at the door ol'a beautiful widow on the sunny side of thirty, who, by the wav, had often bestowed melting glances on the aforesaid Sheriff. He was admitted and the widow appeared. The confu sion and fright which the arrival of her visitor occasioned, set off to greater advantage the captivatingeharms ol the widow M ‘ Her cheeks bore the beautiful blended lints of the apple blossom; her lips resembling the rose buds, upon which the morning dew yet lingers, and her eyes were like quivers of Cupid: and glances of love and ten derness, with whicothey were filled, resembling arrows which only invited a “beaux” (pardon the pun) to do full exeiution. After a few common-place remarks, “Madam,” said the matter nf act Sheriff, “I have an attachment for you.” A deeper blush than usual, mantled the checks of the fair widow; while the J glance of her downcast eyes were cen- J lered upon her beautiful foot, which half concealed bv flowing drapery, pat ted the floor. She with equal candor, replied: “Sir, the attnehmert i® reciprocal.” For some lime the Sheriff maintained an astonished silence, and at length he saidr ‘Madam, will you proceed to court?' ‘Proceed to court!’ replied the lady, with a merry laugh; then shaking her head, she said, *No, sir; though this is leap year, I will not take advantage of the license therein granted to mv sex, and, therefore, ] grratly prefer that you should proceed to court.’ “But, madam, the justice is waiting.’ ‘Let him wait; 1 am not disposed to hurry matters in so unbecoming a man ner; and beside, sir. when the ceremo ny is performed I greatly prefer a min ister to a justice of the peace.’ A light dawned upon the SheritTs brain. ‘Madam/ said he. rising from his chair with solemn dignity, “there is a great mistake here—my language has been misunderstood —the attaenment of which I speak was issued from the office of Squire C , and commands me to bring you instantly before Itim to answer a contempt ofcourt, in disobey ing a subpoena in the case of Smith vs. Jones.’ We drop the curtain. Woman-Mlark Twain's Opin ion of Her.’ At the annual banquet of the Wash : mgton Correspondents’ Club, held on the night of the 12th inst., the Star reports the twelfth toast as follows . ‘Woman: The Pride of the Profes sions. and the jewei of ours’—was re sponded bv Mr. Clemens, better known as- Mark Twain.’ Mr. Twain remarked as follows: Mr. President —I do not know why I Should be singled out to receive the greatest distinction cf the evening—for so the office of replying to the toast to woman has been regarded in every age. [Applause.] I Jo not know why I have received this distinction, unless it be that I am a trifle less homely than the other membets of the Club. But, be this as it may, Mr. President, I am proud of the position, and you could not have chosen any one who would have accepted it more gladly, or labor ed with a iieartier good-will to do the subject justice than I. Because, sir, I love the sex. (Laughter.) I love all ths women, sir, irrespective of color or age. [Laughter.J Human intelligence cannot estimate what we owe to woman, sir. tShe sews on our buttons, [laughter,] she mends our clothes.[laughter.] she ropes us in at church fairs—she confides in us. she tells whatever she can find out about the little private affairs of the neighbors —-she gives us good advice— and plenty of it—she gives us a piece of her nfir and sometimes —and sometimes all of it —she soothes our aching brows — —she bears our children—ours as a general tiling* Jn ail the relations ol life, sir, it is but just and a graceful tribute to woman to say of her that she is a brick. [Great laughter.] Wheresoever you place woman, sir —in whatsoever position or estate — she is an ornament to that place she occupies, and a treasure to the world. [Here Mr. Twain paused, looked in quiringly at his hearers, and remarked that the applause should come in at this point. It came in. Mr. Twaix re sumed his eulogy.] Look at the noble names of history ! Look at Cleopatra! Look at Desdemona !—look at Flor ence Nightingale !—look at Joan of Arc !—look at Lucretia Borgia ! (Dis approbation expressed.) ‘Well/ said Mr. Twain, scratching his head doubt fully, ‘suppose we let Lucretia slide.’ Look at at Joyce Ileth ! —look at Mother Eve ! [Cries ol *Oh ! ‘Ok ] You need not look at her unless you . want to, but (said Mr. Twain reflect ively, after a pause), Eve was orna mental, sir—partially before the lash ions changed ! I repeat, sir, look at the illustrious names of history ! Look at the Widow Machtee —look at Lucy Stone ! —look at Elizabeth Cady Stan ton !—look at George Francis Train ! [Great laughter.] And. sir, I say it with bowed head and deepest venera tion, look at the Mother of Washington! she raised a boy that coulu n ot lie could not lie! [Applause.] But he never had any chance. [Oh ! Oh !] It might have been different if he be longed to a Newspaper Correspondents Club. [Laughter, groaus, hisses, and cries of ‘put him out.’ Mark looked round placidly upon his excited audi ence and resumed.] 1 repeat, sir, that in whatever posi tion von place a woman she is an ornament to society and a treasure to the world. Asa sweatheart she has few equals and no superiors [laughter] —as a cousin she is convenient; as a wealthy grarnFmotlicr, with an incura ble distemper, she is precious ; as a wet nurse she has no equal among men. [Laughter.] What, sir. would the people of the earth be without woman ? They would be scarce, sir almighty scarce ! Then let us cherish her —-let us protect her—let us give her our support, our encouragement, our sympathy our selves, if we get a chance. [Laughter.] But, jesting aside, Mr. President, xvoman is lovable, gracious, kind of | heart, beautiful —worthy ol all respect, iof all esteem, ol all deference. Not anv here will refuse to drink her health right cordially in this bumper o! wine, for each and every one of us has per sonally known, and loved, and honor jed the very best one of them all his own mother.
