How little we know of each other, That woman of fashion, who sneer : At the poor girl betrayed and abandoned, And left to tier sighs and tears, May, ere the sun rises to-morrow, , Have the mask rudely torn from her face And sink from the height of her glory To the dark sliad,.s of shame and disgrace.

One ot the greatest pedestrian fetha on record was accomplished in this city°y cs I.-rday. An old t oper passed a saloon without' walking in.— [Philadelphia Chronicle. Women who would hesitate about cry¬ ing before a husband of a lover have IK) scruple about shedding tears before an .atidience. It is with their emotions as with their shoulders ; they are only tlis played in public. The wonderful sricess of the teleph one is all owing to the fact that you can at. tich one end of it to a mule’s ear and s rear at him in seven languages without running flic risk of g Ring kicked.— [Philadelphia Chronicle. A negfo teamster in Nashville declares that he must either give up driving mules or withdraw trom tlie church, the two positions being incompatible. Sunday school teacher: ‘Who was the Strongest man V Boy: ‘Jonah, be¬ cause tlie whale couldn’t bold him after he got him down.’ Consolation—Inebriate—‘Now, fiiok here: wbat I shay is; what’s the use o’ riches ? S’pose a man’s a Roth—you know—-a Rothschild bank, eh ? Well, what’s the good of it? He can’t get no more drunk than I can—now can he?’ A benister gave this reminiscence in an after dinner speech : ‘When i began to practice I was in perfect rages ; the smallest hole in my shirt was the one I stuck my head thiough, and I had to have that, my only shirt, washed by the dozen, for it was in twelve pieces. - ’ ‘Squigglums.’— ‘School mistress [jnst beginning a nice improving lesson upon minerals to the juniors]: ‘Now what are the principal things we get out of the earth V Youthful angler, a?tat lour (confidently): ‘Worms.’ A Vicksburg negro fell front the deck of a steamboat the other day, vVas sucked under a coal barge, came up in time to catch his breath before he slid under a ralt a mi'e long,’ and finally scrambled ashore down at Warrentown, about sev¬ en miles below, with the remark, ‘No use tryin', ye kant drown a deep water Baptis V A correspondent of Harper’s Maga¬ zine sends to ‘The Drawer’ a copy of an order received by a Broome county den¬ tist, which says : ‘My mouth is five in¬ ches acrost, five>eight inches threw the jaw. Sum humoky on the edge. Shap¬ ed like a hoss-sbew, too forrard. If you want me to be more pertickler, I shal hav to cum that*.’ The wise daughter is the pride of her father, yea, her mother also doth delight in her ; but the foolish maiden bringeth sorrow. She ban get h on the front gtte; she tippeth rip her hat over her left eat; her eye is full of the Old Nick ; she glaoceth oVer her shoulder when she promenades on Broad street. Her hand¬ kerchief, is also seen. Then the dry feth goods clerks say : *Ha, ha Y Ke to himself; he maketh Mistakes i n I the measure of a calico. hospitality. ^ fl,e hospitality is a thing that touch eS the beart and l) c\cv goes beyond the circle 61 generous impulses. Eutertain me «t with the true hbspitable man means more than the mere feeding of the body; it meins an interchange of sou! gifts. Still it should have laws, as ali things good must have laws to govern them, i he obligation to be hospitable is a sacred one, emphasized by every moral code known to the. world; and practical outcome of liie second great commmd ment. There should never be a guest in the house whose presence requires any con¬ siderable change in the domestic econo ray. However much the circumstances of business or mutual interests may demand in interta’uiing a stranger, he shou d neV' er be taken into the family circle unless he is wholly worthy of that sanctum sanctorum of social life ;. biit when once a man is admitted to the home fireside he sir. uld be treated as if tlie place had been his always. I he fact of an invita'iofi gives neither host nor guest tlie i ight to be master of the other's time, and does not require even a temporary sacrifice of one’s entire individuality or pursuits. A man should never be so much hi nn - •self as wlien hie entertains a friend. To stay at a friend’s house beyond the t*me for which one is invited is to perpe¬ trate h social robbery. To abide uninvited in a friend’s house is as much a misdemeanor as borrowing his coat without his permission. It is debasing the coin of fr’endslnp to mere dross when a man attempts to make it pay his hotel bills. 'Tlie fact of two men having the same occupation and interest in life gives to neither a social right to the other’s bed and board, A traveling minister I IMS iio more right to go uninvited to a fellow preacher's house than a traveling shop • keeper or shoemaker has to go uninvi¬ ted to tlie house of his fellow cratlsmafi. Men are ordained to the fninistery as preachers; teachers and pastors,’ and not as private hotel keepers. They who go into the country in suifi mer as uninvited guests of their fanner friends should he rated, as social brig¬ ands, and treated accordingly. These few social maxims are by no means to be taken as a complete code of laws. Others quite as important will spring up out of the personal experience of every reader of this article, arid tlie justice and equity of all may be tested by that infallible sfrindard of society— the golden rule. There can be no true hospitality that in practice is ai violation of this rule ; and you may safely rest as¬ sured that you have given the fullest and most perfect measure of entertainment to your neighbors if you have done ex¬ actly as you would be done by .—Sunday Afternoon. Tiis Printer’s Estate,— The prin'er’s dollars—where are they f A dollar here, a do! ar there,’ scattered over numerous small towns rill over the country, miles and miles ripart—how are they to be gathered together ? The printer will have to gef up an address to these wide¬ ly scattered dollars like the following : “Dollars, quarteris, halves and dimes, and all manner of fractions’ into which ye are devided, collect yourselves and come home. Ye are wanted ! Collect yourselves, for valuable as you are in the aggregate, single you will riot pay the cost of gathering. Come in here in sin¬ gle file, that the printer may form you into a battalion, arid send you forth again to battle for him and vindicate his ered< it/ Reader, are you sure vod havn’t a couple of printer’s dollars sticking about, your old clothes? The Guinea Fowl.—T his species of poultry is poorly appreciated,' but in our judgment is to the poultry yard what the cow pea is' to the plantation crops, cheap, productive and profitable. Cheap, be* cause they roari) far and wide, and thus feed themselves and require no care.— They are comparatively wild, very watch¬ ful of danger, hence can’t be caught by ‘varmints,’ in day time or at night. In fact, they are the best kind of watchdog, for if an owl/or other kind of ‘Varmint,’ or a human thief come about at night, the guineas are the first to know the fact arid are suie to give the alarm. Their y le1 ^ of eggs is astonishing, one hert will ls v "P^ards of two hundred in a season ; - two dozen bens would fnrnish a small * atnb y ,n meat.

Acqaiessews©; TWO BOLL AES Per Annum A Puzzled Justice* —A man named Josh was brought before a country squire for stealing a hog, and three wit nesses being examined, swore they saw him steal it A wag having volunteered his counsel for Josh, knowing the scope of the scjuile’s brain, arose and addressed him as foil ows : Uvlay it pleas yer honor; 1 can establish this man’s honeltv beyond the shadow of a doubt, tor 1 have twelve wriness who are ready lb sweiir that they did not see him steal it,’ The squire rested his head for a few moments as it in deep thought and with great dignity arose and brushing back his hair, said : ‘It there lire twelve who did not see' him steal it, and only three who did, I discharge the prisoner.' The Barnwell People is of the opin¬ ion that tlie farmer who crawls out of bed at 8 o’clock, eats a poor breakfast, and then goes fishing or hunting, or to the village corner to talk, politics, drink whiskey and rail against the State as no farming country, who takes no [tapers and condemns book farming, and threat ens to move to Texas of California to get revenge on the State that will not give him a good living without work; is a dead weight upon the fainting inter ests of any country. Kufep Borax in the House.— Tn the laundry it is economical, sis it saves both labor and soap, arid is really cheaper than the latter. For blankets and other large articles it is especially valuable, and in all cases the use ol a little borax will save half the labor when thd articles are mucli soiled. It is perfectly effeetd ai in driving away red ants, cockroaches; etc,, if sprinkled around on shelves or put in the fun-ways ot the insects. Bo rax is also of great value for toilet uses. For removing dandruff and cleansing the hair it is unequaled.' It is also a good retriedy for rough face . and chap¬ ped hands. Its application to wounds, sores; bruises, sprains, eld. proves very salutary, and is often the only remedy required; even in severe eases, -- Benjamin Godfrey and Mollie Win age,"ot nedger, lovers, 1 neither over 18 years of Norfolk, had a trifling quarrel.

At twenty you know every tiling,’ at thirty you have your doubts, at forty there are some things you don’t know at fifty you are sure of your ignorance,’ and after that you read Mr. Beecher’s sermon on everlasting punishment and hope he is right. — [Boston Courier.

IIufRS Wanted eoT a Million Doris Lars.— An advertisement in the sun from the Brittish Consulate in Baltimore indicates several points of somewhat 10 - inantic interest. In 18'7G, in England, the widow ot Gen. Roht; Blake died, leaving an estate of over $1,000,000 to fall into the lap of heirs who are yet to turn up, and who, there is a probability, may be traced to early residents' of BaU timore. Gen. Blake died in Suffolk. England, in 1850. There fs some doubt whether he left a will, but his widow re msiaed in posesston of the entire estate from bis death until her death, in If thete was a will leaving it to her, then her heirs are the parties entitled , other¬ wise it will go to the heirs of Gen.' Blake. Mrs. Blake was Miss Helen Sheridan, daughter of Wm. Le Fanu Sheridan, formerly of Baltimore, who came from Galway, Irelafid, in 1871, leaving the daughter Helen in England, where she married. The nearest relatives of Mrs. Blake are the ffescendents, if any, of her mother, Mrs. Sheridan, by a second mar¬ riage. Richard Brinsley Sheripan is sta¬ ted to have been a connection of the family.—[Baltimore Sun. A Schenectady girl at a spelling school sat down on ‘paniloons.’ That happens here often, and yet it neVer gets into the papers. N(1; 18 • - ‘All women are angels before marriage, and that is the reason why their bus bands so soon wish them in heaven af tefward.’ Thus spoke Murpliey’s sweetheart to him the other night: ‘If you intend to hug me don't do it suddenly, because tho chair you are sitting on has a broken legj and you might get a tumble,’ ‘This is what I call wlien capital jiunish^ ment? remarked a boy his mater¬ nal protectcr shut him up In the closet with the preserves.

Good morning said a compositor to the head of a flourishing family; ‘have you any daughters. who would make good type setters ?’ ‘No, but I have a wife that would make a Yery good dev— il.’ A spread-engle orator of New YorK wanted the wings of a bird to fly to eve ry village and hamlet in the broad land ; but wilted wlieh a naughty boy in the crowd sang out, 'You’d be shot for & goose before you had flew a half a mile.” An Iowa than served four years in state prison, and then it was ascertained that he tvas innocent of tlie crime .cnar- cb g u d.

A good pf an > we think, We never have a fo^iriotrow; it is simply a world of prophecies. It has been said that the two pleasures of liv¬ ing are in having something to love, and SOI bathing to hope for, and the last of these is ever before us in the promise of ‘to-morrow.’ To-morrow we may not know, and it is as well it is thus ordain-* ed to be, for beyond tlie invisible veil that comea ^ s Mive its coining joys find SOfH vovvs > GUl ' * aii cy may revel only id what is k euu *MM and fail, nor see the gloom or fllc shadows a th coming at; could trials anticipate and worldly nU V on j\ we as ed realities that were certain to come, would mar all our peace ailfe enjoy ment of the present. It is well for ris that we cannot withdraw the veil which hides our future. A Baby Weighing One Hundred Pounds— On last Monday there arrived at the Olive Street Hotel Mr. Henry Henderson, a vyelLto-cfo f irmer of St. T rancois county, Mo., with his wife and infant boy. The latter,' though only thirteen months old, tips the scales at one hundred pounds, rind in spite of iris monstrous baby. It weight, is a handsome, healthy is perfectly formed in every respect. A number of leading physici ans called to see tlie infant prodigy and pronounced it one of trie wonders of the age. 'The mother of the boy is a rerriark ably fine looking lady of forty, arid is the mother of eight children. Before leav¬ ing the city the parents expressed their intention of exhibiting their giant .baby to the public at an early day, —St. Louis Lost, March 21. Why ladies sire called ducks : Because they ate not tame. Because there w a S°°d deal of sport to be got out of the w ^d ones. Because they may be cap tured: Because they may bt sold.
