CO N ST ITUTIONALI ST.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOV. 18,1808
[From the Brooklyn Kagte,6th.
“ Visions"'of Hash-Eesh.”
-
In this sublunary existence unhappy
mortals have to put un with a good many
necessary evils. Eating, drinking and
sleeping are among them. Ever since the
day that the philosophical New Englander
tried to do without all three, and on the eve
of success unfortunately died, the necessity
of this common place trio has been ac
knowledged by ail, even by the cutest and
most mercenary of Easterners. If a man
has to eat, drink and sleep, he must find
some place where he can go through the
vulgar routine.
BOARDING-HOUSES.
And this brings into existence another
iftcessary evil, namely, boarding-houses.
Brooklyn is to a 1 large extent the bed
room for New Yofk, and a bully old bed
room it is. It is tilt, off into a good many
compartments, and these are watched over
by a peculiar class commonly known as
landladies.
The bloated bondholder, of whom we have
lately heard so much, the merchant, and the
well-to-do generally may slip through with
out making the acquaintance of these fe
male griffins, but the majority of men
sleep beneath the roof of another, and
wipe their feet- upon other people’s door
mats.
The student of human nature has a large
field to work over, but a poor unfortunate
hoarder who keeps his eyes open has more
opportunities of picking twigs off its fences
than almost any other man.
LANDLADIES.
To begin with t ie landladies.
They are a class by themselves. There are
variations in the species—better looking
and worse looking, meaner and more libe
ral, women who arc always trying to solve
the questions, what is too much and what
is too little in the way of rent? and how
little can a man live on, and how cheap can
the little be bought? But the iaudlady
can no more change her nature than the
leopard his spots or the nigger Ills skin.
They are the same everywhere.
“•DOESN’T TAKE BOARDERS FOR A LIVING.”
There is a class of these boarding mis
tresses who are always anxious to let it be
known that they are not taking boarders
as a matter of business.
Fellow-sufferers, beware of these ladies.
Don’t believe them when they say that they
are only anxious for pleasant society, don’t
trust them if they say that money is no ob
ject. Respectfully leave the house, for if
you don’t they will trot you up to a sky
•parlor and ask for >t a rent which will sur
prise you, and will set a table which is only
a mockery to healthy man.
I’ve been there.
I’ve descended seven pairs of stairs from
a decent sized dog’s kennel on a cold morn
ing, hungry as a hunter, have seen a clean
cloth, ten plates, knives and forks in equal
profusion, four slices of bread and nothing
more. Have asked for breakfast and had a
cup of coffee and some toast, and a piece of
meat about 2 by 3 and thin as a wafer.
I shocked one of these pretenders by tell
her that the sample was good and that I
would thank her to hurry up my breakfast,
A look of horror took possession of her
face, she sank upon her chair, her emotions
overcame her, and I began to think myself
a brute for ever huviug suggested so hun
gry a thought. I got no more breakfast,
and moved at the end of a week.
The weakest week I ever spent.
TITE BEEDY.
The seedy landlady is another of the ge
nus, and she should always be shunned.—
The S. L. in Ay be known by a general slov
enliness of person, a complexion of such a
character that i is impossible to know
when her face is dirty and when it is clean,
a watery expression about her eyes, and a
general untidiness of person which causes
her repeatedly to be mistaken for a ser
vant. Seeking mortal, gaze and shrink ;
the S. L. watches over the management of
a seedy house. The carpets are thread
bare, the linen is holy, no spectacles are
needed to discover cobwebs.
And the food is seedy.
Cheap joints of meat, catnip tea, bean
coffee, and everything of the cheapest.—
One thing almost preponderates on the ta
ble. Bre kfast—beefsteak and toast; lun
cheon-bread and beefsteak; supper—beef
steak and vegetable, or it may be mutton
2ri-tt)ccltli) Constitutionalist
in the same proportion. Then the cooking
—well, there one gets considerable variety,
at one time almost everything is burnt to
a cinder and at another the meat is hardly
heated through. Never the happy medium.
Now and then as a delicacy the S. L. will
introduce upon the table some patriarchal
Tooster, dignified by the name of “chicken.”
Then look out for your teeth, and be care
ful not to bite at any weak spot. I have
straggled with the leg of a so-called fowl
that was old enough to have been the
mother of the rooster that crowed thrice
to the recreant St. Peter.
THE MUDDLING.
The muddling landlady is the most an
noying of the species. Her boarders live in
a glorous state of uncertainty. You never
know whether tilings are going to come in
right or not. It is not unusual to have ca
per sauce for roast mutton and apple sauce
for boiled. When you want tea you get
coffee, and when coffee flud tea. Every
thing is in a state of mixedness, and the
poor woman never knows where she is.—
The worst of it is the M. L. is sure to get
money matters mixed, and often asks a man
who doesn’t owe her a cent to “ try and
pav her something this week, &c.” By the
*jye, how often landladies have tlieir gas
bills sent in if their statements are correct.
The company ought not to take advantage
of this innocent class and keep them always
raising money.
Boarders—-demand.more light on the sub
ject.
And don’t stand any gas.
THE AMIABLE.
The amiable landlady is the greatest
fraud in the business (if we may apply such
a term to the calling of the class). When
she opens the door, and you first make her
acquaintance, her face is discovered marked
with the sweetest of smiles, she rubs her
hands with an appearance of satisfaction,
and in answer to your inquiries she talks
about wanting a “gentleman” to take her
room, and the most “ agreeable society,"
etc., etc. Smiles are her stock in trade, but
behind them lurks a disposition whicli sits
uneasily in their rear. The A. L. thinks a
man can live on smiles.
Smiles are all very well to ornament a
bar-room, but they are the poorest orna
ments for a dining table.
The amiable lady believes in feeding on
smiles. But put her out, cr offend her in
any way, and then look out for squalls,
wind and storm. *
The smiling covering is dropped, the oily
tongue loses its oiliness, the polite grace its
gracefulness, and the unfortunate offender
is almost anninilated with a red-hot shower
of hottest invective.
THE LITERARY.
There is the literary lady who raves
about Milton and neglects her linen; quotes
Shakspeare and don’t wash her face ; the
aristocratic landlady, who picks her board
ers but not her vegetables ; the fnaternal
lundly, whose interesting daughters and
sons are always running over the boarders;
the poverty stricken landlady, who worxs
like a s ave herself, and is the best of the
batch after all.
A PARTING BLAST.
I have tried all of them, have put up with
the peculiarities of all sorts of female
griffins, and have come to the conclusion
that ail boarding houses are delusions,
shams and snares.
Landladies are a preying class, and con
sider all male mankind who remain in siu
gle blessedness, and whose Incomes are
limited, as their fair and lawful prey.
’Phis is woman’s rights with a vengeance.
* How is it that: because you are allowed
the privilege ot. paying from ## to sls n
week to
upon herself the right to worry and annoy
you as much as she pleases.
It’s played out.
The time lias come for young men to band
together, start their own houses, elect their
own landladies, pay them for w at they do,
keep them while they suit., turn them off
when they don't, aiyl so end this system of
female tyranny.
That's the best advice I can give, and
though I, in my mansion ou the “Heights,”
am no longer bothered by t ese she-tor
turers, unhappy victims can always call on
Yours sympathetically,
Frank. Fkisbie.

Strawberry Culture,
No fruit better repays for high culture
than the strawberry. The ground should
be deeply spaded and reduced to a flue
tilth before planting; it should also be
made very rich, and not a sprig of grass
should be allowed to infest i lie vines during
their growth. If the grass is not suffered
to make headway, it is easily repressed;
but if once allowed to get possession of the
ground, the labor of eradicating it is in
creased ten-fold. To facilitate the cultiva
tion, tlie plants should either not be allow
ed to spread over the ground, or the run
ners should be confined to the row; which
may be the better plan to insure a full
yield it is not easy to determine. The
largest berries arc doubtless ’ grown on
plants from which all the runners have
been suppressed ; the greatest quantity on
those which have been permitted to in
crease to a moderate extent.
Perhaps, however, it may be better to
illustrate by reference to actual experience
coming under the immediate cognizance of
the writer. In the Spring of last year a
bed in the garden, seventy-seven by twenty
two feet, was set with 825 plants, mostly
Wilson’s Albany Seedling. The growth
was vary luxuriant. In the Fall, some of
the rows were thinned for planting, while
in some places the ground was literally
carpeted with vines. During the Winter a
protection of chip manure was given to
them, and in the Spring the setting of the
fruit was abundant beyoud anything I ever
witnessed. The berries, when ripe, were of
large size, and greatly admired. The ac
tual product of this bed, which is the twen
ty-fifth part of an acre, is within a fraction
of 4©o quarts, all full-sized and heaping
measure—being more than a quart to
each vine planted, aud equal to 10,000
quarts to the acre.
The following notes in respect to a few of
the choice varieties cultivated in the gar
dens of this city may be acceptable:
Bison’s Seedling. —This is one of the old
and well-known kinds. It is believed to be
without an equal in productiveness; the
berries are of large size—but not the largest
—and of showy appearance. . The fruit is
solid, and bears transportation well. The
only fault that can be found with it is its
acidity; but being among the earliest to
ripen its place cannot oe supplied.
Green Prolific. —This is also a great bear
er, and follows the above in good succes
sion. The ferries are bright starlet, well
flavored, and of handsome size, but rather
pulpy. Growth of the vine exceedingly
rampant, and hard to be controlled.
Golden Queen. —Berries of a pale color, of
very large size and fine fl ivor, but father
soft. It has the great merit of riperfing
when the other varieties are on the decline,
and is moderately productive. Berries
spherica', and pretty uniform. *
Jucunda.— Toting all things into view,
this is doubtless the prince of strawberries.
It is very productive, of the largest size,
uniform, firm in flesh, and is 4 ! long time in
bearing. It is of cockscomb shape.
RusseWs Prolific. —Large size ahd of fine
quality. It is among the best bearers, and
in all the qualities of a good fruit is not
much inferior to the Jucunda.
Triomphe de Grand. —This is an old varie
ty, but the berries are of a large size and
bne flavor, and the vipes are moderately
productive. Ripens early.
Agriculturist. —Some of the berries are
very large, but of unequal size. To bring
it to the highest perfection, the vines should
be placed in deep soil, made very rich. Un
der such circumstances it would be-hard to
beat.
An Australian paper says: « Horses are sold
in Gripp’s Land at tenpence apiece, or seven
for five shillings.”
HURLEY’S AGUE TONIO.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
r o
The only remedy for Chills and Fever or A 7 ie and
Fever that is or can be depended upon Is Hurley’p
Ague Tonic. There have been thousands cured by
using it who had tried the usual remedies without
benefit; but in no cane has
Hurley’s Ague Tonic
railed to effect a. cure. All who have used it
cheerfully tell their afflicted friends ol it, as a sure am
certain cui% for chilis and fever. Any one suffer!m
from the chills would consult their own interest by
sending to a drug store and buying a bottle. It If
pleasant to take, compared with others, and will b«
certain to cure all cases of fever and ague or chills anc
fever.
