Man and Boy. ‘About thirty years ago,’said Judge P., ‘I stepped into a book store in Cin cinnati, iu search of some books that I wanted. Whilst there, a little ragged boy, not over twelve years of age, came in and inquired for a geography.’ ‘Plenty of them,’ was the salesman’s reply. ‘How much do they cost?’ ‘One dollar, my lad.’ ‘I did. not know they were so much.’ He turned to go out’ and even open ed the door, but closed it again, and came back: ‘I have got only sixty-one cents,’ said he, ‘could you notnow let me have a geography, and wait a little while for the rest ol the money?’ How eagerly his little bright eyes looked up lor an answer; and how he seemed to shrink within his ragged clothes when the man, 1 ot very kind y, told him he could not! The disappointed little fellow looked up to me, with a very poor attempt at a smile, and left the store. I followed and overtook him. ‘And what now?’ I asked. ‘Try another place, sir.’ ‘Shall 1 go, too, and see how you succeed ?’ ‘On, yes, if you like,’ said he, sur prised. Four different stores I entered wiib him, and each time he was refused. ‘Will you try again ?’ I asked. ‘Ye9, sir; I shall try them all, or I should not know whether I could get one.’ We entered the fifth store, and the little feliow walked up manfully, and told the gentleman just what he wan ted, and how, much money he had. ‘You want the book very much? inquired the proprietor. ‘Yes, sir; very much.’ ‘ Why do you want it so very, very much,’ ‘To study, sir. I can’t go to school, but I study when J can at home. All the boys have got ahead of me Be sides, my father was a sailor, and I wanted to learn of the places where he used to go.* ‘Does not your father go to those places now?’ a^ked the proprietor. ‘He is dead,’said the boy, softly; then he added, ‘after a while, I am going to be a sailor, too.’ ‘Are you, though ?’ asked tiie gentle man, raising his eyebrows curiously. ‘Yes, sir; if I live.’ ‘Well, my lad, I will tell you what I will do; I will now let you have a new geography, ar.d you may pay the remainder of the money when you can, or I will let you have one lLat is not new for fifty cents.’ ‘Are the leaves all in it, and just like the others, only not new ?’ ‘Yes, just like the new ones., - ‘It will do in.«sr as woll then < one inch of this deck remains above water. When I see none of it,then I shall abandon the vessel, and not before; nor shall one of theciew, sir. Every thing shall be dc ne to save ir, and if we fail, it will' net be from inaction. Bear a hand, every one of you, at the pumps!’ And with renewed energy, and a vis ible determination to save the ship and their good names, they sang out, with a loud and clear voice, ‘Aye. aye, sir by the pumps we save her, or die F ’ Thrice during the day did we des pair, but the captain’s dauntless cour age, preseverance and powerful will, mastered every mind on hoard, and we went to work again. ‘I will land you saL at the dock in Liverpool,’.said ho, ‘if you will only be men.’ And he did land us safely, bat the vesse’ sunk moored to the dock. The captain stood on the deck of the sink ing vessel, receiving the thanks ar.d blessings of the passengers, as they passed down the gang-plank. I was Icist to leave. As I passed, he grasped my hand, and said : ‘Judge P., do you recoguize me?’ I told him that I was not aware that I ever saw him until I stepped aboard his ship. ‘You have not forgotten the Cincin nati boy, of course F ‘Certainly not, sir: William Haver— W ‘lam he,’said he, ‘God bless you!’ ‘Arid God bless you, noble Capt Hav'erlyi, . a,jjjaoB ex Book and Job work, of all kinds, PROMPTLY AND NEATLY EXECUTED AT THIS OFFICE. any one.else, and those who patronize them must be either superstitious or have money to throw away. It is re markable how a band of such people can make a living in this enlightened, country. They do, and more besides, They are outlawed in Asia and Africa, being regarded there as vagabonds and thieves, strolling about and subsis ting mostly by theft, robbery and for tune telliDg. ‘It wnJ do just as well, then, and I will have eleven cents left towaid buy ing some other book. J am glad that they did not let me have one at any of the other places.’ The bookseller looked np inquiring ly, and I told him what I had seen of the little fellow, He was much pleas ed, and when he brought the book along, I saw a nice new pencil and some clean white paper in it. ‘Thank you, sir ; you are so very good. ‘What is your name ?’ ‘William Haverly, sir.’ - ‘Do you want any more books?’ I said ‘More than I can ever get,’ he repli ed, glancing at the books that filled the she! vea I gave him a bank Dote. Tt will buy some for you,’ 1 said. Tears of joy came into his eyes. ‘I can buy what I want with it; then, and— ‘Yes, my lad; any thing.’ ‘Then J will buy a book for mother,’ §aid he. ‘Ami I hope some day I can pay you back.’ He wanted my name, and I gave it to him. Then I felt him standing by the counter, so happy that I almost en vied him; and many year$ passed be fore 1 saw him again. * * * * * Only last year I Went to Europe on one of the finest vessel# that plowed the waters of the Atlantic. We had very beautiful weather until near the end of the voyage, then came a most terrible storm, that would have sunk all on board, had it not been for the captain. Every spar was laid low, the rudder was almost useless, and a great leak bad shown itself, threatening to fill the ship. The crew were all strong, wil r ljng men, and the. men were practica seamen of the first class; but after pumping for one whole night, and still the water was gaining upon them, they gave up in despair, and prepared to take the boats, though they might have known that no small boat could ride such a sea. The captain, who bad been below with his charts, now came up- He 8aw how matters stood, aijo with a voice that I heard distinctly above the roar of the tempest, he or dered every man to his post. It was surprising to see those men bow before the strong will of their captain, and hurry back Jo take the pumps. The captain then started below to examine tfie leak. As he passed me, I asked him if the/e was any hope. He looked at ir e, ao’d then at the otter, pssen ‘ ' ' ~ ‘ 4. wbo'ha^ crowded op to ; jtetettereply, and said,.rebuking!*: ; Yee, sir; there is hope as long a* About Tea. A correspqndec t iu the Agricultural ist writes an interesting chapter on- ‘How the Chinese Cultivate and Make Tea,’ and some of the facts he states are anything but comforting to -those lovers of the beverage who are some what fastidious in tl.eir tastes; ‘The Chinese are extravagantly fond of tea, and they drink it at all |]ours of the day and night. The tea saloons are always open. You- sit down to a small table in a largo hall where there are several hundred pig-tailed men, laughing, talking, and drinking their favorite beverage. It is not green tea, but black. They'do not often touch the green varieties. Yon call for a cup of tea, and a little boy, with a little cue like pig-ta:!, sprouting from the erown of bis head, brings you two cups and a saucer. - You wonder what the second cup with a cover is for. But seel He puts a small quantity of tea, just a pinch, into one cup, pours the boiling water upon it, anil puts on the cover to keep in all the steam and aro ma, lets it stand a minute or two, then drains it into the other cup. It looks very weak and hasn’t hardly an f color. You fear it is as ‘weak as* dish water.’ But just taste it. Isn’t it de licious? You sip it—a little at a time — and smack your lips every time you swallow. You think of the Indian who wished bis neck was half a mile long, so that be could taste the whisky all the way down ! You can drink it all day and" not get drunk, and as soon as your cup is empty you call for more. ^ ou drink it without milk or sugar, for that' would spoil it. You notice a large jar beneath the tabhe, and that the boy turns the grounds from your cup into it. When it rsiltlh it is taken outdoors and the contents dried in the sun. Then they are taken into the preparing room, where they are colored with Prussian blue, turmeric, gypsum, and other things,'dried in the pans, trampled a second time beneath the heels of a coolie, and sent over for its to drink ! Even then it is better for us than whisky, and no dirtier thart' many other things that we put into our mouths. Most of the. teas sent to this country are of low cost and of a poor quality. The Chinese drink the best. They do not make it so strong its we do, and experience do bad effects from its use. ‘All teas are purchased by sample, and the English and American mer chants in .China have tasters—young men whose sole business is to judge of the qualities of tea. You enter alast ing-roorn, and ai the first glance, think it a pantry, a chipa closet, and a grocery store, all in one—there are so many cups, covers, and packages of tea on the shelves. The youDg man has forty or fifty caps before him, and as many samples of tea. He weighs out a small quantity for each cup. and steeps each parcel so many seconds by the watch, and then tastes of each cup, and so judges of its strength and quality. These tasters get great pay—some of them five tirtd eveii : 't<yn thousand dol lars a year hi goldt But they mortgage their health and lives. This constant taking after a while tells, upon their, .nervous system, and th.e bhantjes are 1 hat they will shorten theifi days. 'If any man heading this has a desire to dtpp everything and rush off tb China to be a?*ea-tasler, he had hdtter rhliik twice, fbh very few tasters are wanted, ami the large salary is dearly ekrnUd if loss of health and a shortening of life are tlie ad&inpaniments, for among the best bJessiuus bequeathed by otlr Heavenly F-atheris that of good health.’ Spurgeon on the War Path. That original and unique preacher t Spurgeon, has lately made one of his characteristic fulminations. The Euro pean war has exercised him to that-ex^ tent that he ba j add essed a letter to Napoleon and King William, in which be lakes those Bellicose gentlemen part ly to task for their little quarrel and scrimmage. Spurgeon rises above the nice ques tions of Court diplomacy and sticks to his Bible-taught humanity. He is emi nently practical. He makes a stiff ar gument, adhominem, that will bear re- product’on. He thus quotes: Did either of you ever think of what war means? Did you ever see a man’a head smashed, or his bowels ripped open? Why if you are made of flesh and blood, the sight of one poor wound ed man, with tbe blood ooziDg out of him, will make you feel sick. I don’t like to drown a kitten; I can’t bear even to see a rat"die or any animal in pain; But a man ! where^your hearts if you can think of broken legs, splin tered bones, heads- smashed in, brains biowed out, bowels torn, hearts gush ing with gore, 'ditches full. of blood, and ’heaps of limbs and carcasses or mangled men? Do you say': my language is disgust ing? How much more disgusting must the things themselves be! And yon make them! How would you like to get a man into your place garden and run a carving knife into his bowels or cut bis throat? ' 'll you did that you would deserve to be hanged; hut it • would riot be half so bad as killing tens of thousands, and you know very well that this is just wbat you are going to do. Do you fancy that your drums and fifes, and feathers and fineries and pomp, make your wholesale murder one whit the less abominable in the sight of God ? Do not deceive your selves ; you are no better than the cut throats whom your awn laws condemn. Better? why, you are worse, fou your murders are so many. Think, I pray you, for your poor people will nave to think w heather you do or no. Is there so little want in the world that you must.go trampling on the harvest wjtH your horses and men? Is there so little sorrow that yon must make widows by the thousand ? Is death sd old and feeble that you must hunt his game for him, as jackalsdo for the lion ? Do you imagine God made men foy you to play with? Are they only meant for toys for you to break ? Q Kings, a ploughman tells you that their souls areas precious in God’s sight as yours; they suffer as much pain .when bullets pierce them as ever you cao do;. . they have homes, and mothers and sisters, and their deaths will be astouefc wept over as yours, perhaps more. How can you sit down to eat when you have caused war? Does not thq. blood rise in yonr throat and choke you ? Or are you .only devils with crowns on ? Creatures who were nev er suckled at a woman’s breast; and therefore have no human feelings ? It will be bard for you to think of tbe blood you have shed when you lie dy ing, and harder still to bear the heavy hand of God when he shall cast, all . murderers into bell.—Whichever it ia of you that has'been the cause of this wicked-war, I say you smell of blootl; you ought to be more hated than the hangman,.and instead of being called ‘H s Majesty,’ you ought to be hooted as a demon. Gypsies —A eompahy of these peo ple have been encamped near the' Co lumbus road just outside the city lim its, for several davg. Fora considera tion, they pmfess to tell yon anythin^ you want to koow about your future hfo- Three dollars wiU give yOu general outline, and for five you' can get the whole thing; with figures and dates. They, are we! 1 -fitted oqt with 1 ' fine horses, tents; - fttYtelrty, they know nothing more of the future than Honest- Living.—A young man, who purposed starting ir. business in New York city, made a preliminary visit there, armed with letters of introduc tion to business men. These present ed, and the usual compliments passed the New York merchant inquired what he intended to do. I have not exactly decided,’ replied the yoong Puritan, ‘but I expect to set tle into some goodtlU3iness in which I can get a living honest ?’ • ■-‘‘An- honest living.’ ‘Young man,'said the New Yorker, ‘I congratulate yo,u; there is not a city 4n the United States in which you will meet With so little competition in your method of doing business. All.the Scalps.—Admiral Far- . RAGUT bequeathed all his trophies of . /, ... w.ar to his son, wjiose name happens to. be LoYall. The extra ‘I’ in the boy’s baptismal appellation was, perhaps; purposely given to show that he could take the test oath tw,ic3 running, if . necessary. Thm Eabth.—Ii is the boastt oft modern scieuce that it can indicate vero closely the exact age of the world. As the recent theories of most, learned; geologists vary from j^Q00,QQQJ)0GLio’ 100;000,000, pious folks may stifl ..be^y lieve that the Bible knows more about it than Huxley and all bis trib^ i Ary ~ r -rzjsr Bled ilqsfSofoT sT ad; 7! . ol tetanic
