EvorV ovening when tlio sun sinks
■ t hn West, und the light of [amps or
is needed to enable us to continue
our employments, hundreds of tlious
un,ls -of busy men cease from labor
and turu their steps homeward. To
t h„ woman of the family, this return
f futhor, husband, or brother is .one
of tlio events of the day ; but how di
verso the influence theso workers
Mine with them, and liow varied the
reception with which they are mot! If
it were possible to lay aside business
annoyances with our hats and coats
when wo enter cur homes, how we
would rejoice to bo within that
charmed enclosure ! And yet thus it
should bo. Life is a battle, of course,
and those who boar their part in it
must oxpoet'to give and receive blows ;
hut oven professional soldiers do not
fin-lit without cessation, and the dougli
jiest warrior must have some breath
in? spell when ho can lay aside liis
armor Homo may bo made a sanc
tuary, to which wo can floe when sore
ly pressed by the rude assaults of
trouble and disaster, and from which
we may issue refreshed and strength
ened ; hut it is too often just tho op
posite.
When John arrives at home, ho ex
pects his dinner at onco, and a good
one too, for has ho not Luen working
hard all day to earn money onough to
pay tlio bills ? As he is tired and hun
gry, he has no pleasant word for any
body; but if the food is under-done,
or over-done, or does not suit his taste,
or is lacking in quantity, how ho does
scold? Susan, for her part, has had a
hard day of it. Tho baby kept her
awake a good deal last night, and has
been very fretful during the day, re
fusing to be quiet unless on her moth
er’s knee. Like many American wo
men, sho is excessively nervous, and
after such a trying day as she has
passed, John’s indifference and scold
inn- are a little more than she can
stand. So she answers him sharply,
word for word, an 1 tho result of tho
angry- contest is that each passes a
dreary evening, and iinally they retire
to rest, wondering why tho world is so
full of trouble, and why they were
such fools as to get married.
There are, however, other people
who live very differently. Harry
means to extract happiness from life,
and does Ho likes a good meal as
well as anybody, but ho is as. reasona
ble before breakfast as he is after it;
und if perchance dinner is not to his
liking, ho does not vent his spleen on
Jane, his wife. Ho carries sunshine
with him wherever he goes; and as
lie always tries to make the best ot
circumstances, he is welcome wherever
he goes, and nowhere moreso than in
his own home. Would there were
more like him, so that there might bo
loss sad-eyed women, and more cheer
ful, sweet-tempered wives; that there
might be fewer men who prefer the
club, the counting-room, or almost any
place to their own homes, so called.
It would perhaps he unfair to select
auy class of men or women as partic
ularly neglecting c-li--orfulness at home
and yet wo think farmers as a class,
fail to appreciate its importance. They
have their frolics and enjoyments, to
bo suro, but tho average American
farmer is hardly to bo called a jolly or
even cheroful personage. In tho busy
season he rises with the lark, trudges
as faithfully and often more laborious
ly than his team, so that when night
comes all the snap and spring is out
of him. lie does not make any effort
to interest his wife in conversation at
meal times, nor sho him ; and if when
the day is over, she has any troubles
to talk over, he is too tired to ho very
sympathetic and attentive. So they
plod along, living a humdrum sort of
a lile, which their bright children
mentplly resolve to avoid by going to
the city. All farmers, it is truo, do
not live so, but many of them do; and
that is one reason why so many far
mers’ wives break down. They have
too much work and too little cheerful
ness, and it is more than they oi any
"% else can stand.
A Cheerful household, however, is i
peculiar neither to tho city nor conn- 1
lyy- It is found whoro those who re- j
side beneath iho same roof recognize j
tjie obligation of each to contribute to
|hc happinoss of all tho rest, where
}°ve is tho ruling spirit. A detenu
jned effort, coupled with much for
euranco, is necessary- to produce the
result; but when onoo it has boon at
uined, it will repay- every effort, and
the home thus graced by cheerfulness
nd love will ever bo chefished as in
ood “tho dearest spot on oarth.”

A Slrange Story.
from it Letter of the lire. JL Si/tsabaugh’s
m the Mason Count y Journal.
“1 knew a man in (’hrist above four
toon years ago (whether in tlio body,
I cannot toll ; God knowetli;) such
an ono caught up to the third heav
en. ’— St. raid.
I have boon requested liy many per
sona to give to tho pubiic an account
of a very singular oojuroneo that oc
curod recently witluu tho bounds of
my district. I shall give you names,
dates and facts, allowing your readers
to draw their own inferences, and de
siring that any who may ho incredu
lous us to tho fact may have the privi
lego of ascertaining their verity, as
there are, perhaps, more than a hun
dred persons in that neighborhood who
will readily bear witness.
In November, Rev. Joseph N. Per
shing, of tho Saltsburg circuit, began
a series of meetings at Kelly’s station,
on tho West Pennsylvania Railroad,
where tho m<sthodi.-ts have a small,un
finished church and a vory feoble so
ciety-. A sermon was preached ono
night and penitents invited forward,
when a young lady, Miss Eiuiliuo
Taylor, a daughter of Mr. John Tay
lor, of white station, a young lady of
quite an amiable disposition, came for
ward for prayer. Sho remained at
the alter for quite a length of time,
appearing to be calm, in mind, and yet
earnestly and devoutly- looking for tho
mercy of God. About nine o’clock
her prayers seemed to liavo been an
swered. Her face wore an expression
of unusual brightness as she, looking
upward repeat and several times with
emphasis, “0, that beautiful place over
there." She became entirely- uncon
scious, and was carried to a house
near by, it being thought unadvisablo
to romovo her to her father’s house,
which was about throe miles distant.
In. this condition sho remained for sev
en days, in tho meantime taking no
nourishment whatever.
On Tuesday she began to speak in
a low tone of voice, and. for half an
hour told of tho scen.-s of another
world, after which she remained silent
for several hours. Sho spoke of hav
ing been conducted to the place of lost
souls, and heard their wailing of des
pair, and than conducted to the gates
of heavrm. Tier description of what
sho saw and heard was so vivid and
tranporting that the large company
present wept freoly. She spoke of
those whom she had known who had
died, and wero recognized in glory,
clad in shining raiment, with unknown
names on their She called
them over by name, one after another,
including the names of all the child
ren she had known who had died,
with those tokens of susprise and do
light that attend an actual greeting of
long absent friends.
Tho first of whom sho spoke wero
two miuistars. Ono was Rev A 11.
Thomas, of tlio Pittsburg Conference ;
the other was the Rev. Mr. White, of
the Presbyterian Church, once tho pas
tor of the church at Saltsburg, but
who some years before had resigned
his charge for another in Ohio. He
was not known to any present as de
ceased, hut upon inquiry it was found
that he had died a few days before.
Os this event neither Miss Taylor nor
any member of her father’s family had
heard.
Persons wore regonized there whom
she did not expect to soe, while others
foil whoiu she inquired was infoimed
wero hot among that number. Many
other things concerning anothei world
were written down, and are lying be
fore me, expressed in language most
boautiful aud appropriate, but which,
if given, would trespass upon the col
umns of your paper.
Many expedients were used to res
tore her to consciousness, among
which were singing and animated re
ligious services, but all without the de
sired effects. On Friday her friends
became very much alarmod, owing
to the opinions expressed by tbo phy
sicians that, having been so long \v ith
out food’ she would never bo restored.
Tho effort was made to givo her some
nourishment, but iu vain. She was
asked whether sho would ever bo able
to rise, when she replied: “My Sa
viour has not yet told me. At dilfex
ent times she had spokon ot lior sa
viour as present with her as her guide
aud instructor. Shortly after this she
told them that her Saviour had just
informed her that she might return to
oarth on*Sabbath evening at 9 o’clock
This statement occasioned a joyful sur
prise to hor anxious friends. Tho fath
er said that should it thus eofco to pass
he would believe all sho would say
concerniug the future state.
On Sabbath evening a largo com
pany of the neighbors had gatbored
to learn tho soquol. There was no
clock in the room, nor any wav m
which sho could mark tho hours of the
nteht, for hor eyes had remained clos
ed from the first. At three minutes
before 9 she raised her right hand
and waved it as if giving farewell to
persons vanishing in the distance, and
then raised her left hand in like man
-1 ner, and at precisely 9 o’clock sho op
-1 cnod her eyes, spoke a greeting to nor
! friends, began praising the Lord, and
I called upon those around to join hor
in praiso for His great mercy. When
j asked if she was hungry, she reliod
that sho was not so in the least; that
I sho had boon fed with milk and lion
ey, indeed, hor strength was so won
dorfully renewed that it seemed that
she had boon by an uusoen hand.

“Yes, I’ve hail a good many fighte
in my time,” said old John Parky,
tenderly manipulating his dismantled
nose, “and it’s kind of queer, too, for
when I was a boy the old man was
always telling me better. Ho was a
good man and hated lighting. When
1 would come homo with my nose
bleeding or with my face scratched up,
ho used to call mo out in the woodshed
and in a sorrowful and discouraged
way say : ‘So, Johnny, you’vo had
another fight, hey ? How many times
have 1 got to tell yo how disgraceful
aud wicked it is for boys to fight ? It
was only yosterday that I talked to
you an hour about tho sin of fighting,
and hero you’vo been at it again. Who
was it with this time ?” With Timothy
Kelly, hey ? Don’t you know any hot
ter than to fight a boy that weighs
twenty pounds more than you do, be
sides being two years older ? Ain’t yo
got a spark of sense about ye ? I can
see plainly that you nro determined to
break your father’s heart by your
reckless conduct. What ail’s your
finger ? Timothy hit it! Drat the lit
tlo fool! Didn’t yo know enough to
keep your finger out of his mouth ?
Was trying to jerk his check off, hoy ?
Won’t yo nover learn to quit foolin’
’round a boy’s mouth with yer fingers ?
You’re bound to disgrace us all by
such wretched behavior. You’re de
termined never bo nobody. Did you
ever hoar of Isaac Watts—that wrote
‘Let dogs delight to bark and bite’ —
sticking his fingers in a boy’s mouth to
got ’em bit, like a fool ? I’m clean dis
couraged w iih yo. Why didn’t yo go
four his nose, tlio way Jonathan lad
words, and George Washington and
Dan 1 Webster used to when they was
boys ? Couldn’t cause ho had yo down!
Thai’s a party story to tell mo. It
does beat all that you can’t learn how
Socratoes and William Penn used to
gouge when they was under, after tho
hours and hours I’v spent in telling
you about those groat men ! It scorns
to me sometimes as if I should have
to give you up in despair. It’s an aw
ful trial to me to have a boy that
dout pay any attention to good exam
ple nor to what 1 say. What ! you
pulled out three or four handfuls of
his hair ! II -m ! Did he squirm any ?
Now, if you’d a g.ivo him ono or two
in tho eye—but as I’ve told yo many
a time, fighting is poor business
Won t you, for your father’s sake —
won’t you promise to try and remember
that ? 11-in ! Johnny, how did it—
ahem—which licked ?’
“ ‘You licked him ! Sho ! Iioally?
Well, now, 1 hadn’t any idea you could
lick that Tommy Kelly ! I don’t bo
liovo that John Banyan, at ton years
old, could have done it. Johnny, my
boy, you can’t think how I liato to
have you fighting every day or two.
I wouldn’t have him lick you for live,
no, not for ton dollars ! Now, sonny,
go right in and wash up; and toll yor
mother to put a rag on ycr linger.
And Johnny, don’t let mo hear of
your fighting again !”
'‘l never see any body so down on
fighting as tho old man was, but sorno
how he never could break me from
it.”

JIOItNS.
In writing tho biographi ov horns, i
am astonished tew lmd so uionny of
them, and so entirely different in their
pedigree and protonshuns.
"Cape Horn." —Capo Horn iz tlio
bigost horn known to man.
It iz a native ov the extreme bottom
ov South Amorika, and gores tlio os
hun.
Capo 1 lorn iz hollow, and akts az a
phuunoll for tho winds, which hurry
thru it in mutch haste, cauzing tho
waters <>wlhe sea for a grate distance
tow hokum crazy, which frightens
the vorsolls feat go by tliar, and makes
them rare and pitch tremoujus.
This hoin iz lilco a sour old bull iu
tlio hi way, ami don’t soem tow bo ov
any use, only . > makn folks go out ov
their way tens git round it
“Horn of a dilemma." —Dilemma iz
derived from tho Siamese “ dilost,'\
which means a a tits spos, and has a
horn on each end of it.
Tharo is no choice in tliezo two
horns ; if yu seize ono ov thorn tho
other may perforate yu, and if yu
don’t take either, both ov thorn may
pitch into yu.
I always avoid them if possible, but
when possibility gives out, mi rule iz
tew shut up both eyes, and iite both
prongs with my whole grit
Nino times out of ten this will smash
a dilemma, and it iz always agood fito
if yu git licked the tenth.
Yu kant argy or reason with tho
horn of a dilemma, the «ily way iz
tew advance in and tight for tho gross
amount.
"Cow's flora f Two bony projeek
shuus, curved, crooked or strato, worn
by tho cows on the apeks of their
hods for ornament in times of poece,
aud used when they go into war to
stab with.
Theze horns are a kind ov family
rechord.
At three years old a ring appears
on tlio bottom ov tho horn next to
tlio hod, and each year after, a fresh
ring iz born. ,
lu this way the cows kno how old
tjley are.
Sometimes theze rings fill up the
whole horn, and grow off onto the ad
joining fences iu the pasture lot, but
this only happens to very old cows.
I never knu it tow happen in my
life and I don't think it ever did ; it is
one ov them venerable lies that are
handed down from father to son, just
to keep the stock oi lies from ruuuing
out
When lCwaz a boy and had just be
gun to chaw tobacca, I v-az told that
butter cum from cow’s horn—l
have since found out that this iz an
other cussed old lie.
This being tew children iz no evi
dence ov genius, and is sowing tho
seeds of decepshun in a soil too apt hi
natur tew covot what aint undoubted
ly so.
"Dinner Jim". —This is tho oldest
and most salt red horn there iz. It is
set tew musik, and plays“Honie, Sweet
Homo” about noon. It has bin lis
tened tew, with more rapturous delito,
than even Graifula’s band haz. Yu
kan hear it further than one ov Air.
Rodman’s guns. It will arrest a man,
and bring him in quicker than a sher
iff’s warrant. It ken outfoot eny oth
er noizo. It kauses the deaf to hear
and tho dum to shout for joy. Glo
rious old instrument! long may yure
lungs last!
"Dam's (Torn." —A spiral root, that
emerges suddenly from tlio figure hed
ov the maskuline sheep, and ramifies
until it reaches a tip end. Ram’s horns
are alwus a suro sighn of battle. They
are used to butt with, but with out eny
rospekt to persons. They will attack
a stun wall, or a deakon, or an estab
lished church. A story iz told ov old
Deakon Fletcher ov Konuoktikutt
State who was digging post holes in a
ram pasture on his farm, and the, mo
shun ov his boddy was looked upon,
by tho old ram, who fed in the lot, az
a banter for a fito.
Without arrangeing enny terms for
the fight the ram wout incontinently
for the deakon, and took him the fust
shot, on tlio blind side of his boddy,
just about the meridian.
The blow transposed the deakon
sum eighteen feet, with a heelsovor hed
nioshun.
Exhasperated tow a point, at left-t
ton foot beyond endurance, tho dea
kon jumped up, and screamed his hole
voico * * * “you darued
—old cuss,’’and then all at onco re
membering that he waz a good, plus
deakon, ho apologized Ly saying—
"that iz, if I mag be allowed the exprvs
shun.
Tiie deakon haz mi entire sympathy
for the remarks made tew the ram.
“ Whiskey Horn." —This horn vuiys
in length, but from throe to six inches
iz the favorite size.
It iz different from other horns, be
ing ov iluid natur.
it iz really more pugna.shus than
the rum’s horn, six inches ov it will
knok a man perfokly calm.
When it knocks a man down it
holds him there.
It is either the principal or the seck
ond in most all tho iniquity that iz
traveling around.
It makes biutes of men, demons ov
winimin and vagrants ov children.
It has drawn more tears, broken
more hearts and blited more hopes
thau all the other ageneys of tho dev
il put together.
The first daily nowspaper printed
in Virginia was printed in 17S0, and
the subscription prioo was fifty dollars
