The baU'M tumult—allegorical. Vim os a social being, at a tender age bit- -in. os’ be tho victim of the thoughtlessness, :,ri«ity and cruelty of his follow beings. I plaid and murderous pins,, toeerats> hi. «5cr flesh; his "crying for tlw light is ^understood and anathematised, instead ,f esiiing forth kind pity as tho wail of a lamb and helpless animal should. Hi>s fresh, young palato is conuinilnawxi ritb sour milk; he is swathed in uncomfort- ihie ill-fitting garments, made by maiden •ants not for him. but for the ideal, arche- vDa i* infant, which existed only in the niirds of the well-intentioned needle-women, „i4 each maiden aunt of necessity had a liiUnct type of baby in her eye. Pause for , moment, pray, and imagine the discomfort if wearir' garments, made pt different teriods of time, by various amateur tailors, nbo have never seen you. To a hardy, rigorous man this would bo painful in the .Jtrrme; to a weak, puny infant jt must be linolute torture, when at the same time the •hild’s teeth are sprouting through it-* in- ianud gums, and its cheeks are covered liick with a rash. Leaving out of consideration tho fact chat Jh, child h clad with “misfits,*’ how his son- jjtive feelings must Iw harassed when his , rand mot her, aunt* and other female rela- iivef surround him, crying out ns one wo* rB „, “Keetelier, keotcher, keeteher!” A Sermon Npolled, [Now York Sun.] “What seems to be the nmttei f’ he asked, mildly, os they were returning from church; “didn’t you enjoy the sermon?’* “Enjoy the sermon?'* she repeated, shortly, “and that odious Jlrr.

Think of tho misery of tho little being fresh from tho angels; in a hot room, under the blankets, left to tha tender nireyof a stout monthly nurse, hardened by contact with a constant succession of iuch little angels. These trials through, our mannikin is put into short clothes, these a legacy from bis elder brother. Now, his serious tor tures begin. His idlest brother ’taunts aim with wearing cast-off clothing, and feeding him with copper cents; or maylinp allows him to piny with tho tig Noah’s ark, and tha artless creature, feeling his way into lie realities of tho world, sucks the purple paint irom the camels, ami the red and yel low spots from tho tigers nnd guinea pigs. His nose is thereupon held by merciless umds and a nauseous draught administered to him. Tho way nnd wherefore of this in sever explained to him; an ex parto hearing s held, and on tho evidcucj of the elder brother, tho criminal, nnd the real testi mony of the pnint smears upon t.io little .\we-bud of n mouth, judgmont is delivered tnd executed before any one can say “Jack rtoblnson.” Mpsadayv Mew?©& Sxxd r U3Q&, FIHHT POSITION. THE MANE IDEA. The first object of every equestrian is much tho same ns everybody else’* in life, “llow to got on.” And to “get on” you must bo in tho best ficssible position. Supposing the horso quite still, let tho equestrian student place himself on tho left, side of tho horse, facing tho tail, and with his back towards the horse’s head. To tiegin with, catch hold of tho mane. This is tho leading or mono idea. As a rule, a mnno is objectionable; tho loss there is of it tho better for appearance, though not for use.
