This is no unnsaal occurence, bat oc oars every fnll about this time. They emigrate, like tbe swallow*, to the Soatb in winter, and then go back to tbe North as tbe spring approaches. A seedy-looking individual of this genus dropped into the Constitution's composing room, yesterday, and asked for employment. Bis hair hong in matted clusters around bis careworn brown, bis sleek and tattered clothing fell loosely over bis trembling form, and os be spoke he carelessly robbed bis band through a shaggy growth of beard, well nigb covering bis entire face. “Yes, sir,” bnid be,” “I came all tbe way from Denver, and I walked most of tbe way. Sometimes I hid in a freight car or cangbt on tbe brakes of a passenger, but I walked most of tbe way, and ate and slept as best I could. “Know bow to set type?” tbe fore man asked. “No, sir.” “Anything about printing ?" “No, sir.” “Then what do you want to do?” “Anything to make an honest liv ing. I haven’t bad anything to do for two years, and want work.” “Well, you might clean out these spittoons and busy yourself around beie awhile, and we'll see what cun be done for you, and will see that yon get something for your trouble” “Thank you,” responded tho trnmp, as be turned indignantly away; “I am a gentleman, and prefer to beg my way rather than accept your offer.” He quietly left, and as be wcudud bis way down tbe curling stairs of tbe building he was muttering something liko “that man must 'a took me for a nigger." Rut there are tramps wbo mean well, and really are willing when tbe opportunity offers itself, of turning their band for a well-earned peuuy. A great many follow tbe business, if it can be called u business, because they liko it, und others because they can't help it. At any rate hundreds of them pass through Atlanta annu ally. Frequently they ore cared for tenderly at places where they chuuce to stop on the roadside, or by ways, but more often all is barsbuess. Said an old tramp in speaking of tbe vicissitudes of a tramp's life: “I've seen many a rough duy and have gone through an experience that it ain't many could stand. I’ve keen treated mighty badly and nbused lots, uud I’ve fallen in plenty of kind hands, but I never but once came across just such a caso as one I struck last week.” He proceeded to tell the story,which iu substance was aa follows: He had stopped at a cozy looking cottage and ruug the door bell, and asked the servant who answered for something to eat. She stated that she would mi her mistress. The latter soon appeared nod fouod the trump grazing on the mil row herder of the narrow grass which lined the llowor beds of the front yard. “Why, what are you doing?" she -skid "I'm hungry, uni a, for I ain't had to eat for three.days.'' Bat do yon eat grass?’’ Yos'm, when I ain’t pot nothing EXTRAORDINARY COOK BUNTING. From (be Greensboro, (Ge.) Herald. It wasn’t many Saturdays ago that a number of gentlemen standing upon tbe streets at Greensboro discussed fox banting, bird hunting and kin dred sports. Each ono bad told a story, remarkable in a high degree, when tbe climax was reached by one of tbe gentlemen, wbo told the fol lowing story: “Uoous!” said he, with a sneer, 'You don’t know anything shout coons in this conntry. Why, yoti ought to go to southeast Georgia, lived there once, and my favorite pus- time was coon hunting. Early one morning I started out with my dogs for a hunt The morning was damp and heavy, and we hadn’t gone far before tbe dogs struck a trail, and away they went. How beantifal it was. Tbrongb the nuderbrosh they rnsbed, crashing, barking, tbe sounds coming -to us like low music on the morning air. It wasn’t many min utes before tbe long howl of the lead ing dog told os that he bad treed “Wo put out after tbetn, going through tbe swamps, and down into a rauebrnko. There we came upon tho dogs all clustered about a cypress log. They smelled it, and men nil started buck as if they didn’t know what was to pay. We drew near and endeavored to nrge them ion. But thoy wouldn’t nrgo. We Went up to the log, and it seemed to be moving. I didn’t know what to make of it. Tue sides of it rose and fell ns regu lar ns a clock. We fioally oat into it, and there it was packed with coons. We killed a hunared'SfiJfrtorty and Idon't know bow many got away.” “Wbut made the log move?" iuno- cently asked a bystander. ,‘Oh, plain us day. The coons were packed so close that every time they breathed the log would expand.” There was a ghastly silence aud tbo crowd moved away. “It wasn’t a good day for coons, either!" he yelled after them, and putting u fresh chew of tobacco in bis mouth bo walked rapidly iu tbo dr rection of the “Cotton Boarse” on Wall street, and in u moment more wus buying the fleecy staple with a serene and numoved countenance. ADVANTAGES OF A GOOD TEflIPKIt. There is always good policy in keep ing one's temper. Aa often os tern per is lost a degree of influence is lost with it; aud while tbe former may be recovered, it will be found much more difficult to recover tbe latter. Tbe politician who allows himself to get angry in bis capacity—whatever may he the provocation—does bis cause an injury which his soundest argu ment wilt hardly repair. Just so with men of all professions, and with men of professions. If they would be able to exert a sway in their sphere they most learn to keep cool. Who ever listened to a discussion in which one party want raving mad, while the other maintained bis composure, without having his sympathis enlisted with’tho latter, even thongb, in the beginning, bis prejudice might have been in favor of the former ? It is commonly taken for granted, and with a good share of reason, tbnt he who Das tbe best share of argument will exhibit tbe most coolness. Raised on she Farm. WILKINS STAR 1'HOVBBBS.

The slanderer is a circulating li brary. The wealthiest miser is the poorest of all men. Hope is tbe yeast tbit causes the cup of iife to run over. Tho man who has nothing to do will be apt to do it badly. Many handkerchiefs are moistened by sorrows that never occur. The laborer who is worthy of his biro is also worthy of his lore. Be just to your enemies, generous to your friends, aud independent of both. Many a brilliant star iu the firma ment of fame has discovered that he cannot rise without falling. Enterprise and energy slowly as cend the stairs of success while luck ' goes lip iu hu elevator. With nn iron constitution, steel n.'rves, brass chicks aud u silver line his pockets “Born und raised on tbe farm.” A boy should thank God for being so fortunate as to bo born and raised on the farm. There is no place on this green earth eo well adapted to per fectly develop tbe ruiud, muscle and manhood ns a farm; there a boy has the purest air, the freshest and henltb- iee food, plenty of restricted exercise, the brightest sunshine, tbe soundest sleep—tbe very conditions necessary for tbe highest development. Nine- tonths of nil men wbo have made their mark in uny business, profession or pursuit have beeu bnr j and raised on the farm; this is not so much because there is belter blond on tbe farm, but because tbe surroundings of farm life are better calculated to call out what there is ill a boy, and develop a full- grown, healthy, perfect, self-reliant mau. A Reason for Belling. Indignant Purchaser—See, here, sir; I don’t like this horse you sold me; he balks. I can’t got bim over tbe bridge. Jockey—That’s the reason I sold him. Why did you come to me for the horse ? I saw your advertisement in tho paper. "I thought so. I gavo you uy rea sons for selling bim. Yes. “To bo sold,” yon stated “for no other reason than that tbe owner wauls to go out of town.” “Well, if yon can go out of towu with him it will be more than I can do."

From tho K,w York Commerdsl. Cat parties are tbe latest entertain ments. Recently a young girl, the happy possessor of a flue maltese cat invited a Dumper of friends to briug their pet cats to five o’clock tea, each cat to have a ribon about its neck cor responding to that worn by its mis tress. At tbe appointed boar the cuts made their appearance, iu charge of their respective owners. After the fe line introductions Lad taken place, some of which were tho reverse of friendly, games were introduced, and soft ball, toy mice and other objects dear to pussy’s heart were provided. The pcstimes, however, I grieve to say, were sometimes marred by a vigorous slap when two strangers came in col lision, and once tbe billigereut parties bad to bo seporuted by friends. When tea was announced a tsole fur nished with saucers of milk and email cakes, and with cushioned stools, was disclosed. Tbe floral decorations con sisted of catnip, luvuudcr, grasses, aud bright flowers. The cats, placed on their respective stools, and attend ed by their mistresses, partook of tbe good cheer set before them. Tbeir behavior was quite correct Y^itb their fore paws, on the table they lap ped the milk with becotuiug propriety. When all wero satisfied there was a comical sight. Each pussy began making her toilet, nnd the face-wash ing was decorous in the extreme. Af ter leaving the table a sprig of catnip was given each kitty, nnd the feline happiness wnB complete. These sprigs were tossed in the air, caught, aud lovingly caressed. As each kitty de parted It vrns presented with its hull or toy mouse ns a member <>f the pur- »y■ «■«.«. The death of William Merriam, of Roxbury district, Boston closos a strange career. For twenty-five years a Merriam lived as completely isolated as if bo were in the heart of a wilder ness. The cause of his retirement from active life was disappointment in a lovo ufluir. Ho waa wealthy, bat preferred to livo in little hut surround ed by a board fence ten feet high. Here be lived for a quarter of a centu ry, never going oat save occasionally late at nigbt for an bonr. All sup plies were sboved tbrongb a trap door at the gate by marketmen and others, the money being passed ont in return. All goods were ordered by mail. In vestment uud business operations were conducted by letter. No oue was ever admitted, and Merriam nev er saw tbo face of a woman during bis long hermitage. Tbe man’s only companions were about fifty leghorn bens, who were petted aud fed to tbe point of bursting. Merriam did bis own cooking, sewing and mending.
