A Tittle Story with a Moral. “Corry O’Lanus,” tfie hdtriorous correspondent of the Brooklyn Eagle, is He foY the following “little story,” illustrative of the deiiiands ol the Radical party : O'Blique thinks that if a man wants everything the best way is to let him have it, for then he will be satisfied and won’t want anything eise. Il the people ol the North will only give the Radicals all the offices', "rind ilie White people of the South will.graiU negro suffrage, give up their lands and {♦el-sriiial property and then come in with rdpieS rotind tlieir decks and siih mit to be hung w.thout ally botlier, we shall have peace. This reminds me of a little story. It was about a mail in CouniUlgtit— his name was O’Keegan. , He was a decent, ffuret; orderiyl peaceable sort of a man, who believed in a quiet life, lie lived out of town and had to travel a hit of lonely road with a bog on one side and a woods on the other. One day as lie was traveling home all alone, and il was quite dark, the moon hadn’t risen, and that part of Hie country wasn’t lighted with gas in those dtiyS, Wheri ttlio should step up from behind a lamp post, hut s big murtherin’ villain, with a shiilalah uir der his arm. “Good morning to you, Mr. O’Kee gan,” says he, “an’ I’ll trouble ye for the time of day.” Mr. O'Keegan took out his watch to answer the question, when the black” guard grabs ft. ‘Ml’s a fine repeater ye liavS got, Mr. O’Keegan,” says lie, “an’ it’s in danger ye are of losing it ; so I’ll just take care of it lor ye,” aud he stuffed il iu his pocket. Mr. O’Keegan sayst Id himself; says he, “Better let him have the watch, and he’ll he satisfied and go away.” But he didn't. ‘•Mr. O’Keegan,” savs he, “may be ye have some small change about ye, that you’d he happy to lend me; and you’ll Save me thb t frill file of going through your pockets by shelling out.” Thinks Mr. O’Keegan to himself, “He only wants my money, and I’ll let him have that rather than have ally trouble with the felloe;” So he shelled out and thought he had satisfied the rapscallion, and was going off quite peaceably'. “Whist, Mr. O’Keegan,” says lie, “yon have a mighty fine coat that ud just fit me, and I’ll trouble you for it.” Mr. O’Keegan thought it wasn’t worth while to fight about a coat, so he pnlls il off’, and the other chap puts il on, anil Mr. O'Keegan thought he wds going to gel hriirie ai last id his shirt sieeves. Bui the rapacious cuss wasn’t satis tied yet. “It’s bad the coat looks without the waistcoet, Mr. O'Keegan,” says he, “and it ye’d he after letting rue have that garment peaceably, it would save a rrmiiudefstanding between ui.” Mr. O’Keegan helijved in conces sion, so he peeled again, though he began to shiver, and thought it was cold comfort to be a Christairt under such circumstances. But the chap hadn’t done with him yet. i “ft's your Voot* I want mw,” says lie. 'Mr. O’Keegan began to ihink that ths chap was a little t,uo radical, hut as the chap insisted ifyal thte hoots were an jndispensible concession, Mr O’Kee gah. pulled them off, saying to himself ••he’s got everylhigg now, and I’ll’be ofi.” While the villain was putting on the boots, Mr. O’Keegan wished him good night and was trotting off, Wiled \ke unreasonable omadhaun c«lis aftei him. “Mr. O’Keegan,” said he, just stop where you are. I have your watch and your money, and your coat and waistcoat, anti your boots, ant] l belaye that’s all ye have afctdid that’s worth taking’. But now ye’ll be alter going *to the magistrates and telling yer story and sending the peelers alter me, and trying to get yodr property hack and ‘dV'e hanged'. To save ye all that trou ble I’ll just knock, ye on the beat! and make ye a comfortable bed it: tiie bog, and cover ye up, so that nobody will disturb ye. If ye’ve a mind to confess your sins before ye \ale Vet- nap i'll give ve jist two minutes by y«r own watch.” Now Mr. O’Keegan began to think that virtue of concession had its limits, and that it was time to take a bland in defense of conservative principles. I|is eyes were opened. fie was aroused, and instead of say ing his prayers lie squared «fl and pitched into the unconscionable scamp, and being some on his muscle when his dander was up, he the blackguard out of time in the lirst round, recovered his property and handed the chap over to the first po* liceman who came along, “Bedad,” said Mr. “if I had only done that in the first place I’d liaVe saved mvself a dale of trouble and a bad t.b\Vld ; ” I think we had better fi&lit it out on the first issue. Determined to Ule. In the little town of Dover, which is situated on the Cumberland Biver, in Middle Tennessee, there lived, some years ago, ait eccentric and intemper ate old bachelor, by the name of Kings • ton. On one occasion, when prostrat ed on his bed by excess, and suffering actually troin those stings alii! hbWbr* peculiar to his situation he sent for one of his old boon companions to come and visit him. Shvraek, tor that was tfie other’s name, came duly to Kingston’s room. “What’s the matter. Kingston?” shut the door.” ‘•Yes, my dear fellolV.’* “Lock it.” “Eh?” “Lock the door” “Certainly, my dear hoy.” “Shyraek, I’m going td (t ill sy^e!f.” “My dear fellow, let me entreat you not to do it.” -I will.” “Don’t; it’ll be the death of you.” Shyraek was quite cool iind jocose, little dreaming that so terrible an event was going to take place. Kingston hail, as the latl.t eccentric act of his life, taken a thisel atid mallet to bed with him, and now, with des perate resolve, he seized the extraor dinary tools of death, and in an instant drove the blade of the chisel into his breast. The hair rose upon Shyrack’s head, and fright spread like a sheat of snow oter II I face. ••Kingston! Kingston! my dear fel low—-yiUi d—d rascal, Kingston! do yoil want to have me hung? Hold: don’t die till l call somebody !” Shyraek ran to the door and called like a madman to some people across the street, “llallow ! hpre! say, you mister! all you stupid people, make haste over llery, or there'll be a murder !” '1 he people cfowdsd inlb Kingston’s house. “Don’t die, Kirigstoti ! don’t chisel me that way. Don’t die till you tell them who did it.” “1 did it myself,” Kingston articu lated.” ••There, that’ll dr.; now. my dear fellow* you may die,” replied Shyraek, taking a long breath and wiping the perspiration lfo»h his Ibfelieau. And Kirgston did die in that fcxthr ordinary wav, as a suicide that was almost a murder. A Hint to Touchy People.—“l learned a good lesson when 1 was a little girl,” says a lady. One frosty morning 1 was looking out ot the win dow into my lather’s farm yard, where stoui* many cows, oxen and horses, wailing to drink. The cattle all stood very sti*l and week, till one of the cows, in attempting to turn round, hap pened to hit her next neighbor, where upon the neighbor kicked and hit an other. In live min dies the whole heard were kicking each other *ith great fury. My mother laughed and said, ‘See what comes of kicking when you are hit.* Just so ; I have seen one cross word set a whole family by the ears,’ on n frosty morning. Altefwafd, if my brother, or myself were a little irritable, she would say, ‘Take care, mv children; remember how the light in the farm yard began. Never return a kick for a hit, and you will save yeur*clve6 a great deal of trouble.” NO. 28. A GOOD STORY. Avery eminent lawyer in Ne,w.
