J"" '' Boys " said a village pedagogue
the other day, "what is the meaning of
all this noise in the school?"
" It is Bill Hikes, sir, who is all the
time imitating a locomotive. "
u Come up here, William, if yon are
turned iu:o a locomotive, it is high time
you were switched off. "
The Tinker's Apprentice.
In one of the miserable huts of the
village of Derezart, a family, consuting
of father, mother, and two daughters,
were seated around the iron lamp, sus
pended by a string from the roof The
woman' span, and the little girl
6lept in her father's lap, while he braid
ed hemp. They were sad and sileat,
during along time, when the mother, ad
dressing her eldest daughter, said:
;' Come, Margaret, wipe your eyes, and
think no more about it. It is a misfor
tune, and cannot be halped. Your
brother will come to-morrow our neigh
bor James has said so. Try to be a kit
tle more gay to receive him. Poor dear
child, it is now two vears siuce he left
OS."
" Yes, " replied the father, M it is use
less to speak of it more; what is done is
done. "
Margaret instead of being soothed,
burst into tears. She waa a large, ro
bust girl, of twenty-two years of age, who
had been for a long time betrothed to a
young man of the village. The marri
age was to take place on the return of
her brother; but one of the two cows of
her father had died suddenly, and thus
all her hopes were destroyed, for this
was to be her dowry, and constituted the
t-ntire wealth of the family. The father
of her lover had forbidden the marriage,
now that she had nothing; and this was
the cause of her sorrow.
The next day great preparations were
made to receive rrancois. Buckwheat
cakes, milk, and some bits of bacon com
posed the feast, to which many neigh
bors were invited.
Everything was ready for the recep
tion when the young traveler arrived, and
every heart beat with joy, and ever7
tongue expressed a welcome, and afl
were gay except Margaret on whose face
was a cloud of sadness, which Francois
did not fail to perceive.
" What is the matter, mv sister?" said I
e. '
But, instead of answering, she turned
away to hide her tears.
Francois wished again to question her,
but his mother led him aside and told
bim her misfortune.
Francois immediately approached his
sister, and said:
" Do not be troubled, Maggy ; I have
earned twenty dollars; take them and
buy a cow in place of the one you have
lost 1 do not need money, and if I do,
am I not well and strong, and do I not
know how to work? Next year I will
make two voyages instead of one, and
now that I am older they will be more
profitable."
Margaret, overcome by his generosity,
threw herself into his arms and wept
Francois was apprentice to a tinker
and mender of all kinds of ware, such
as you hear every day in the streets, cry
ing, "Kettles to mend? bring them to
me; melt your pewter spoons to mend
your saucepans."
In this, a3 in other trades, children are
taken by a master, to whom they are
bound for a number of years, and who
has a right to their time and toil They
sometimes establish themselves in large
cities, but in the country there is not
enough work to employ them lonff,
piao ---.- cr , iu v"-
fae,, stopping only so long as is neces
sity to finish what they had to do.
In these tours the master or patron
marches at the head, and the children,
to the number of three or four, follow,
each with a pack, according to his
strength a beetle, bellows, furnace, and
various tools being required whenever
they find work.
If they see a farm-house in the dis
tance, one of the children is sent to de
mand if they have crockery, kettles, or
spoons to mend, and in the "spirit, if not
in the words, of the old song, they cry :
" Sir, have you any kettles to mend? "
"No, no, not any to-day, my child,
thank you."
" But to-morrow? "
" Nor to-morrow, or ever, go along? "
" Sir, I pray let me mend your let
ties?" "But I tell you they are not broken."
" Oh, I pray you, for it is not for them,
but it is for myself. If I go homo with
out a sou, I shall be beaten."
"If that i3 all, I will give yon twenty."
" Oh, you are fit to be a prince."
If in any of the houses they are need
ed, they establish themselves before the
door, heat the furnace, and apportion to
each his labor. If they are needed in
many houses, they erect a rude hut. and
the children bring the broken articles
and return them when finished. Their
honesty is proverbial. No matter bow
many or how valuable the articles con
fided to them, all will be returned to the
minutest farthing's worth, and he who
should once fail to do this would never
again be employed by his master, or be
able to find another.
If night overtakes them far from any
village, they continue their march, how
ever qold and dark, until some human
habitation appears. Here they demand
hospitality, which is seldom refused to
those so poor and honest They carry
their own provisions, and only wish to
warm themselves by the fire and sleep
in the barn, and will perform any tink
ering of which the family have need, in
return.
So soon as the cock crows they are on
their way, and every night the little ones
nearly fall with fatigue; for it is iu the
winter that they travel, when there is no
other work to be had, and the roads are
bad, and they are miserably guarded
from the cold and wet.
To protect their feet they have only
wooden sabots, and tru-ir clothes, if orig
inally of wool or cotton, have been
patched with sLeepgkin until there is
little to be seen of tta foundation. Their
food is dry bread, sometime a. fr.w veg
etables dressed in oil, and on f:Us days
a bit of meat. When they have It-arm-d
their trade, and have beeMM skillful,
they can perhaps earn twentv dollar in
a season, which is devoted v, the pur
chase of a little land, which is r-tainuJ
by the family in common tin til tbfl child
Decome.s a man, when he tk- poanes
stonof it by right, and what it prodti' cs,
joined to what he can still earn, su dices
to his wants and his ambition. Tbfl ;
story which we have told at the com
mencement" proves that they are not
without noble qualities of mind and
bfart.

The river at this piiint, rose two or
tbree inches during WfdnesJay night,
and thpre are now fully 4J or 5 feet wa
ter hence to Louisville, and to Cairo.
The river has ri.seu considerably at
Pittsburg, and was rising yesterday at
Cincinnati, with cloud , nnd damp weath
er at both places.
The rain which apipared so imminent
in this region about miunight, on Wed
nesday, passed round to the North, but
the indications are still favorable for fall
ing weather.
There was no particular activity on
the levee yesterday, and the arrivals
i were but few, being confined entirely to
the local packets.
The Colossus being detained 12 hours
by fog, did not arrive until 8 o'clock yas
terday morning. Sh- : i tumed to Louis
ville at 3 o'clock P. It She had a 6ne
trip both ways.
The R. K. Dunkeraon came in from
Green river at noon vsterday, light.
She will return to Rumsey this even
ing, and passengers and freight will at
once be reshipped above the lock, for all
points to Bowling Green.
The royal Armada, the beauty and
pride of the Cairo packet line, with the
gallant Capt. Josh. V. Throop in com
mand and the affable and attentive Fred.
Huston in the office, will be the regu
lar and unrivalled packet for Paducah
and Cairo, at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The Armada has been put into the
most perfect trim for the fall and winter
campaign, and possessing the most su
perb passenger accommodations, and
being commanded by such popular offi
cers, we expect to see 'f-r go out this af
ternoon crowded with treight and pas
sengers. The Big Grey Eaolo mmj be expected
positively to-morrow evening
The Superior wi ! not go out unti
Saturday.
T'je Colonna arrive.! .'.-otn Nashville
last night, she reports 7 feet water on
Harpeth Shoals and rising.
From Mr. Hyde, clerk of the Colonna,
we learn that guerrillas have made their
appearance on the river and firing on
Sj ' t r-
At Davis' Ripple the- Colonna was iircd
on nnd struck by twenty-live balls, but no
one was hurt.
At New York, the John A. Fisher was
fired into and Capt Strong, was wound
ed badly in the knee. The Nevada was
fired on at Palmyra, and the New Done,
opposite Limeport. One man on the
Nevada was slightly injured.
The Catawba was captured and board
ed, but being loaded ou private account
was released.
The fleet was coi.voyed out of the
Cumberland by a gunboat.
The McCombs arrived from Louisville
about 9 o'clock last night, with a good
trip, apd returned before morning.
The R. K. Dunker.on took two Gov
ernment barges in two last evening, and
will return to-day in time to leave this
evening for Rumsey.
The Cincinnati Commercial of yester"
day, says:
" The weather was mild and clear du
ring the day, with indications of rain
last night. There is four feet in the
channel at Pittsburgh. Here, the river
is receding slowly, with four feet hence
to Louisville, and oyer three feet in the
canal. The last arrivals report forty
inches on the shoalest bars along the
Lower Ohio. The Tennessee and Cum
berland were reported in a fair, naviga
ble condition at last accounts, with four
feet on Harpeth Shoals, and ten feet in
the Tennessee. The Emperor is due
here from Nashville."
Tho Missouri Democrat of yesterday
says:
" The river rose yesterday 2J inches,
and was still swelling slowly last even
ing. To Cairo there is good 5 feet of
water, and below Cairo plenty of it.
" The boats from Keokuk yesterday
report the river raising slowly all the
way down, with 4 fet in the channel
" The Missouri is rising slowly all the
way down from Kansas City, with 3J
feet on the worst bars. That is the re
port received yesterday, but it is not al
together reliable, although it is known
there was a rise of nine inches on Gas
conade bar.
" The Illinois is swelling all the way
down from Peoria, with three feet in the
channel."
