SARGENT S. PRENTISS. From Spark’s Memoirs e? Fifty Years ) When Prentiss and Wood were the Whig candidates lor Congress in Mississippi, and Claiborne and GholSon the Democratic can- McNutt was the Democratic candi date for Governor. The campaign was a most animated one, and Prentiss addressed the people in very nearly every county in the State ; the people, en masse, Socked to hear him, and his name was in eVe*y mouth The Democratic nominees did not attempt to meet him on the stump. His march through the State was over the heads of the people—hundreds followed him from county to county in his ovation. McNutt alone attempted to meet him and speak with him, and he only once. McNutt was a Virgin ian, and was a man of stupendous abilities ; he was a lawyer by profession, and Governor of the State. Next to Poindexter, was the ablest man who ever filled the chair Unfortunately, like most of the voung and talented of that day in the West, he was too much addicted to the intoxica ting howl. Upon the only meeting of these, Prentiss and McNutt, the latter, in his speech, urged as a reason for the rejection or defeat ot the former his dissipated hab its. admitted hie great abilities, his master ly genius, pronounced him the first man of the age intellectually, but deplored his habits, which were rendering him useless, with ail his genius, learning and eloquence Prentiss, in reply, said;—"My lellow citizeos, you have heard the charge against iriv morals, sagely, and l had almost, said, soberly made bv the gentleman, the Demo cratio"nominee for the chief executive office of this State. Had I said this, it would have been what the lawyers term a mis nomer. It would be impossible for him to do or sav any hing soberly, for he has been drunk ten years ; not yesterday, or last week in a frolic ; or socially, with the good fellows, his friends, at the generous board —hut at home, and by himself and dem ijohn ; not upon the rich wines of the Rhine or the Rhone, the Saone or the Quadal quiver ; not with high-spiri'ed or high-wit ted men, whose souls, when mellowed with glorious wine, leap from their lipssublima* ted in words swollen with wit, or thought brilliant and dazzling as the blood of the graoe inspiring them —no; but by himself, selfish and apart from witty men, or en nobiing spirits, in the secret seclusions of a dirty little back-room, and on corn-whi - key—these only, communing in affectionate brotherhood, the son of Virginia and the spirits of old Kentucky. Why, fellow-citi zens. as the Governor of the State, he re tused to sign the gallon-law until he had tested, by experiment, that a gallon would do him all day. “Now, I will admit, fellow-citieens, that sometimes, when in the enjoyment of social communion with gentlemen, I am made merry with these, and the rich wines of glorious France. It is then I enjoy the romance of life. Imagination, stimulated by the juice of the grape, gave to the world the Song of Solomon, and the Psalms of that old poet of the Lord—glorious old David. I “The immortal verse of wandering Ho mer, the blind son of Scio's isle, was the inspiration of Samian wine, and good old Noah, too r would have sung some good merry song, from the inspiration of the juice of the wine he planted ; but having to wait so long, h s thirst, like the Democratic nominee’s here, became so great, that he was tempted to drink too deeply, and got too drunk to sing; and this, I fancy is the true reason why this distinguished gentle never sings. “Perhaps there is.no- mueic in his soul. The glug—glug—glugot his yog, as he tilts and pour? from its reluctant mouth the corn juice so loved of his soul l , is all the music dear to his ear, unless it be the same gl U g—glug—glug as it disappears down his capacious throat. Now, fellow-citizens. duTitig this ardent campaign which has been so fatiguing, I have only been drunk once. OVer in Simp son county £ was compelled to sleep in the same bed with this distinguished nominee —this delight of the Democracy—’this won derful expooentof the principles and 1 prac tices of the unwashed Democracy—and in the morning I found myself drunk on corn whisky I had lain too close to this soaked mass of Democracy, and was drunk from absorption ” “This was more than the Governor could stand, and, amidst the shouts and langhter of the assembled multitude, he left the stand, and declined to meet again belore the people, the young Ajax Telamon of the Whig party.” Sandwiches. —“What do tne Arabs of Ae desert live on, pa?” asked a roguish little girl of her father. “Fudge! Nelly, that's an old conundrum. They live on the sand which is (sandwiches) there,” “Yes;.but, pa. bow do they get them?” “Well, really. Nelly, I give it up.” “Why, pa, don’t yot* know that the sons of Ham were bred and mustered in the wilderness ?” “Come, come, ray daughter' that is too killing. Don’t say another word.” “Ob, yes; do tell me what they eat on their sandwiches.” “Eaton’ em ! Why; what do they eat on them ?” “Butter, to be sure.” “Butter! How do they get butter ?” “Why, you know, pa. that when Lot’s wife was turned into a pillar of salt, all the family but her ran into the wilderness.” Ths Population of the Globe.—There are on the globe 1,288,000,000 suuls, of which 360.000.00'! are of the Caucasian race. are of the M ongol rape. 190,000.000 are of the Ethiopian fraee. 176.000,000 are of the Maiay race. 1,000,000 are of the Jndo—American race.

Bob, you are about leaving home for strange parts. You are going to throw me out ot the game and go it alone. The odds are agin you, Bob —remember thatindu>try and perseverance IV e the winning cards, as they are the ‘bowers.’ Book learning, and all that sort of thing, will do to fill up with, like small trumps, but you must have the bowers to hack them, or they ain’t worth shucks 1 If luck is agin you pretty strong, don’t rave and look like a sick chick eu on a rainy day, but hold Up your head and make them believe you are flush of trumps ; they don’t play 8o hard agin you I've lived and traveled around some, Bob, and I’ve found out that as soon as folks thought you held a weak hand, they’d all buck agin you strong. So when you are sorter weak, keep on a bold look out but play cautious ; be satisfied with a pint. Manys the hand I’ve seen ’em eucre, cau-e they played for too much. Keep your eyes well skinned, Bob; don’t let ’em nig you; recollect the game lays as much with the head as with the hands. Be temperate, never get druok, for then no matter how good your band, you won’t know how to play it; both bowers and the ace won’t save you ; for there’s sartin to be a miss deal, or something wrong. And another thing, Bob, (this was spoken in a low tone) don’t go too much on the women ; queens is kinder poor cards, the more you have <>f ’em, the worse for you ;• you might have three and nary trump. I don’t sav discard ’email; if yon get hold of one that is a trump, it’s all good, and there will he one out of four. And above all, Bhbv he hon est; never take any man’s trick Wot don’t belong to you, Dor slip cards or nig; for then you ean’t look your man in the faee ; and when that’s the case, there’s no fun in the game ; its a regular cut-throat. So now. Bob, farewell, remember wot I'tell you, and you’ll be sure to win ; and if you don’t it sarves you right if you get skunked ! Chrysostom’s Eloquence. —The follow ing burst of eloquence lrom Chrysostom, when he was sentenced to banishment, is a good specimen of the style of this “golden mouthed’ > preacher! What can I fear? Will it be deathT But you know that Christ is my life, and that I shall gain by death. Will it be exile ?' But the earth and all its fullness is the Lord’s. Will it be the loss of wealth ? But we brought nothing into the Wor d, and can carry nothing out. Thus all the terrors of the world are contemptible in my eyes, and I smile at all its good things. Poverty Ido not fear. Riches Ido not sigh for. Death I do nut shrink from, and life I do not de sire, save only for the progress of your iouls. But you know, my filends, the true cause of my fall. It is that I have not lined my house with rich tapestry. It is that I have not clothed me in robes of silk. It is th it I have not flattered the effemin < ancy and- sensuality of certain men, nor laid gold and silver at their feet. But why need I say more? Jezebel is raising her persecution, and Elias must fly. Herodias 1 is taking tier pleasure, and John must be bound in chains ; the Egyptain wife tells her lie, and Joseph must be thru-t into prison. And so if they hat»i-h me, I shall be like Elias ; if they throw uie into the mire; liffe Jpremiah ; if they plunge me into the sear,- like the prophet Jonah ; if into the pit, like Daniel ; if they stone me. it is Stephen that I shall resemble ; John, the fore-runner, if they cut off my head; Paul if they beat me with stripes ; Isaiah, if they saw me asunder. A Suggestion. — We observe daily on our streets, mothers pushing along before them gigs of their little ones, while giving them their usual morning and* afternoon airings, but will not a moment’s reflection conviuce all that to draw them is by far the more rational and sensible way of performing this parental and delightful duty ?-' Riding backwards sickens many people, and why should it not effect babies similarly? The pushing method causes the tender little form to lean forward in a heap, whicn cramps the lungs, injures the stomach, tires the limbs, retards circulation, inclines for ward and downward and instead of refresh ing the child, must of necessity fatigue and eihaust it. By the opposite practice the body is forced back against proper sup ports, the lungs have free play, circulation is unimpeded, and the ride cannot but prove healthy and beneficial. Mothers, be merciful and try it. The Flirtation or the Fan.—Fur the benefit of our voting lady readd'n, some at least of whom arie Hot supposed to be posted in the ttitite language ot the fan, we givo the following directions for carrying on a flirtation; Fan fa«t—l am independent. Fan slow—l am engaged. Fan with right hand in fronl of facE Come on. Fan with left hand in fVont of the face~ Leave me. Open atid shut—Kiss me. Open Wide—Love. Open half—Friendship. Shut—Hate. Swinging the fan—Can I see you hutne ? Fan by right chUek—Ves. Fan by left cheek—No. To carry in the left hand—DesifoUS of getting acquainted. Carry with hand to lips— l will flirt With you. Flirtation of the Hat.— Spinning it on the end of the finger—l care for nobody. Hi iding it in the left hand, bottom up ward—desire an introduction. Holding it ih the right hhnd, bottom upward—l hate you. Fanning very slow with it—l love you. Fanning very fast with it—l wish to marry you. Putting it on thO back of the head—t aitl happy. During it over the forehead—l am sad. Rubbing it with the sleeve—l wish to speak to you. Kn •eking it with the knuckles—l desire your tongue to be kept still. Wearing it slightly on the left side— Will you walk with me f Wearing it slightly on the right side- I am tired. Woman —Home should be the most at tractive place on earth. What a sham life must be, where home is nightly abandoned for theaters, operas, balls, and the of society others. He i? unworthy the relation of hus band and father who prefers the Compan ionship of others to that of the Wife of his youth and the children he has hegotton. But the attractiveness of home is the work of woman. Here is the throne of her pow er and glory. Not in the legislative halls, not at the ballot-box, nor in short clothes, but at home, the guardian of infancy, the instructor of childhood, the companion of youth, the partner of manhood, the comfbrt er of old age; let her diminish Sorrow by her sympathy, Lighten joy by her gayety, soothe by her tenderness, dignify by her intelli gence, elevate by her devotion. She is to make home all this by tmlsio, and pictures, and books, Rnd delightful conversation. Especially should home be intenselv religi ous.
