A LITTLE BOY'S SPEECH.
I've stayed here watching all tbe folks.
And beard the big boys crack their Jo sea.
And reen you laugh and heard yon cheer.
I didn't want to interfere.
Bat I did wish they would get through
And let me do my talking, too.
I hope you've had a Jolly time;
It take, ten cents to make a dime;
.Birds In their little nests agree.
And sugar candy does wita me;
Grandmother says it makes me si;k,
.But I get better very quick.
I hope yon like all yon have beard;
I didn't bearaen to every word.
For I was thinking all the ilma
How should I say my little rhyme;
I've done It now, and feel all right;
I bope yon do too so good night!
Going Down Hill.
BY MRS. S. P. DOUGHTY.
"That looks bad." exclaimed far
mer White, with an expressive shake
of tbe head, as he passed neglected
guden and brokea down fences ; in
one of his dally walks.
"Bad enougb,' was tbe reply of the
oompanioa to wnom the remara: was
addressed. "Neighbor Thompson ap-
pearea to be running down bin pretty
fast. I can remember the time when
everything around his little place was
mm ana uay." .
"It's quite the contrary now," re
turned tbe fanner. ". "House, ' out
building, and grounds, all show the
want of care. I am afraid Thomp
son is in the downward nath."
"He alwavs appeared to be a steady,
industrious man," rejoined tbe sec
ond speaker . 'i nave a pair 01 uuuw
on mv feet at this moment, of his
make, and they have done me a good
service."
"I have generally employed blm
for myself and family," was tbe re
ply, "and I most confess that he is a
good workman : but nevertbeiess, i
believe I shall steD into Jack Smith's
this morning and order a pair of
boots, of which 1 ' stand In need, i
altrajs makerta rule never to pat
ronize tbose wboaDDear to be running
behindhand. There is generally some
risk in ueipiag those wno do not try
to help themselves."
Very true : and as my wife desired
me to see about pair of shoes for her
tnis moraang, i will ionow your ex
ample and call: noon Smith. He is
no great favorite of mine, however
an idle, quarrelsome fellow."
"And yet he seems to be getting
ahead in the world," answered the
farmer, "and I am willing to give him
a lift. But I have an errand at the
butcher's. Step in. with me a mo
ment; I will not detain you."
At tbe butcher's they met tbe neigh
bor who had been the subject of their
previous conversation, tie certainly
presented rather a shabby appearance;
and In his choiee of meat, there was a
regard to economy which did not es
cape tne observation of farmer While,
Alter a few passing remarks, the poor
snoemaKer iook bis departure, and
the batcher opened his account book
witn a somewhat anxious air, saying,
as he chanted the bit of meat :
"I believe it Is time that neighbor
inompson and l come to settlement."
".no time to lose. I should say," re
marked the farmer.
indeed I Have you heard of any
trouble, neighbor White ?"
"JNo, I nave heard nothing; but a
man has the usa of his own eyes, you
know; and I never trust anyone with
my money, who is evidently going
uowa nm.
"Quite right : and I will send in my
bill this evening. I have only delay
ed on account or the sickness which
tbe poor man has bad in his family
all winter. I suppose he must have
run behindhand a little, still I must
take care of number one."
"Speaking of Thompson, are you ?"
observed a bystander, who appeared
to taxe an interest in tbe conversa
tion. "Going down hill, is he? I
must look out for myself, then. I did
intend to giye him another month's
credit ; but, on tbe. whole, I guess the
money would be as safe iu my own
pocket"
Here the four worthies separated,
each with his mind filled with the
affairs of neigbborThompson, and tbe
probability that ne was going down
nill, and the best way of giving him
a push.
In another part of the little village
similar scenes were passing.
declare," exclaimed Mrs. Ben
nett, tbe dress-maker, Ij a favorite
assistant, as she hastily . with drew
her head from the ' window, whence
she bad been gazing on . the passers
by, "if there is not 41rj. Thompson,
tbe shoemaker's wife, coming up tbe
steps with a parcel in her hand. Khe
wants to engage me to 'do lier
Hprnig work, I suppose,-' but I
think it would be a venture. "Every
one says they are running down hill,
and it's a chance if I ever gtt my
pay."
"ne nas always paiu up jirouipujr,
was tbe reolv.
... . . . . , .
"true ;.but that was in tne aays oi
her-prosperity. I cannot anord to
run any risk."
Toe- entrance or Mrs. 'inompson
prevented farther conversation.
Hhe was evidently surprised at tne
refusal of Mrs. Bennett, to do any
work for her ; but as a great pressure
of business was pleaded as an excuse,
there was nothing to be said, and she
soon took leave. Another applica
tion proved equally unsuccesslul. It
was strange bow busy the dressmak
ers had suddenly become.
On tbe way home, tbe poor shoe
maker's wile met tbe teacher of a
small school In the neighborhood
where two of her children attended.
"Ah ! Mrs. Thompson, I am glad to
see you," was tbe salutation. 'I was
about calling at your house. Would
it be convenient to settle oar little ac
count thia afternoon t"
"Our account 1" was the surprised
reply. "Surely tbe term has not yet
expired 7"
"Only half of it, but my present
rule Is to collect my money at that
time. It is a plan which many teach
ers have adopted of late."
: "I was not aware that there has
been any charge in your rules, and I
have made arrangements to meet the
bill at the usual time ; I fear it will
not be In my power to meet it soon
er." . . . t
The countenance of the teacher
showed great disappointment, and as
she passed on in a diflerent direction,
she mattered to herself :
. "Just as I expected. I shall never
get a cent. Everybody says they are
going down hill. 1 must get rid of
the children in some way. Perhaps
I may get a pair of shoes or two for
payment, for tbe half quarter if i
manage right, bat it will never do to
go on this way." v
A little discomposed with her inter
view with the teacher, Mrs. Thomp
son stepped into a neighboring grocery
.1.1. . .
to pnreuass some triiiiug nrticio oi
family stores. -"I
have a little account against
yon. vlll it ne convenient lor air.
rhompson to settle it this evening ?"
asked the civil shopkeeper, as he pro
duced tba desired article.
"is it his usual time for settling ?"
was again the surprised inquiry.
-"Well, not exactly, but money is
very tiztit Just now, and 1 am anx
ious to get in ail that is due me. In
future, 1 intend keeping snort ac
count. There is your bill, if you
ould like to look at it. I will call
around this evening. It is but a small
aflair."
"Thirty dollars is no small amount
to ns just now," thought Mrs. Thomp
son, as she thoughtfully pursued her
way toward home, "Itseemsstrange
that all these payments must be met
just now, while we are straggling to
recover irom tne neavy expenses oi
the winter. I eaonot understand it"
Her perplexity was increased npon
finding her husband with two bills iu
hand, and a countenance expressive
of anxiety and concern, ,,
"Look, Mary," said he, as she en
tered. "Here are two unexpected
calls for money one from tbe doctor,
and tbe other from the dealer in leath
er, from whom I purchased my las
stuck. Tbey are both- yery urgent
jf immediate payment, altbougb
Oa-y have always eeu willing tn wait
w mouths until I could make
arrangements to meet their claims.
But misfortunes never come singly ;
and if a man onc gets a little behind
hand trouble seems to pour in npou
him."
"Just so," replied his wife. "The
neighbors think we are going down
bill, aad every oue is re&uy to give ua
pu.U. Here are two more bills. lor
you oue from tue grocer auu tne otu
er from the leeher."
Reply was prevented by a knock at
the door, and the appearance of a lad
who presnted a neatly folded paper
anil disappeared.
"In l.ulciier a account, as sure as
I' live .'" exclaimed tbe astonished
shoemaker. "What ia to bn done,
Mary ? ' & much money to be paid
out, and very little coming Iu ; for
some of my best customers have left
me, although my wors nas always
given satisfaction. If I could only
nave as much employment as usual,
aad the usual credit allowed me, 1
tsould noun satisfy all these claims ;
hot to meet them bow Is Impossible,
and the acknowledgement of my in
ability would send us etiil farther on
the downward patn."
"We must do onr nest, ana tram in
.
a
Providence," was the consolatory re
ply of bis wife, as a second kr.ucil at
the door aroused the fear, tLa, anoth
er claimant was about to appear.
But the benevolent couateBSf.ee of
Uncle Joshua, a rare but ever wel
come visitor, present-, iUe'.f.
Seating himself in tr.e com fort? hie
chair which Mary hastened to bund
him, he said, in nis somewhat eccen
tric but frienJ'y rninner :
"Well, good felloe, 1 un-IrratauJ
the world does not g ;s';te as well
with yon as formerly. Vbat is the
trouble ?"
"There need be uo trouble, s:r,"
wa3 the reply, "if men would not trv
to add to tne afflictions shicb the
Almighty sees to be necessary for us.
We met with sickness ani tab-fortunes,
which we endeavored to bear
wiiu patience, ah wonu now. go
well, if tbose around me were not de
termined to push me, in t'.ie tiown
ward path.'-'
"But there lies tbe diili.'u'.ty, frietd
Thompson. This is a se'tiri world.
Everybody, or at leat a great majori
ty, care only for numcer cne. If
they see a poor neighbor going down
hill their first thought is, wllether it
will affect their own interests ; and
provide they can secure themselves,
they care not how soon he goes to the
bottom. Tne only way is to keep up
appearances. Show no signs of going
behind hand, and all will go well with
yon."
"Very true, Unci Josi.ua, but Ikiw
is this to be done ? Bills, whivh I did
not expect to be called upja to meet
for the next three months, are pour
ing in npon me. My best customers
are leaving me for a more fortunate
rival. In short, I am on the brink of
ruin, and naught save a miracle can
save me."
"A miracle which is very easily
wrought, then, I imagine, my good
friendL What is the amount ftuee
debts, which press so heavily upjn
yoa, and how soon in the common
course of events eould yon discharge
them ?"
"They do not exceed one hundred
dollars," replied the ahoemaker ;
"and with my usual run of work, I
could make it all right in three or
fonr months."
"We will say six," was the answer.
"I will advance you one hundred and
fifty dollars for six months. Pay
every cent that you owe, and with the
remainder of tbe money, make some
slight addition or improvement in
your shop or house, and pat every
thing about the ground iu its usual
neat order. Try this plan for a few
weeks ; and we will see what effect it
has npon our worthy neighbors.
"No, no, never mind thanking me;
I am only trying a little experiment
on human nature. I know you of old
and have no doubt that my money is
safe in your hands."
Weeks passed by. The advice of.
ancle Joshua bad been strictly fol
lowed, and the change in the shoe
maker's prospects was Indeed wonder
ful. He was now spoken of A3 one of
the most thriving men in tbe village,
and many marvelous stories were told
to account for the sudden alteration.
It was generally agreed that a distant
relative had bequeathed to him a
legacy, which had entirely relieved
him ot his pecuniary difficulties. Old
customer, and new ones, crowded in
upon him. They had never before re
alized the beauty and durability cf his
work. The polite butcher selected
tbe best pieces of meat for his inspec
tion, as he entered, and was totally
indifferent as to the time of payment.
The dealer in leather called to in
form him that his best bides awaited
his orders. The teacher accompanied
the children home to tea, and spoke
in high terms of their improvement,
pronouncing them among her best
scholars. The dressmaker suddenly
found herself free from the great press
of work ; and in a friendly note, ex
pressed her desire to oblige Mrs.
'Ihompson in any way in her power.
"Just as I expected," exclaimed
Uucie Joshua, rubbing his hands ex
ultlngly.as the grateful shoemaker
called upon him at the expiration of
the six' months, with the money
which bad been loaned in the hour of
need. "Just as I expected'. Astrange
world ! They are ready to push a
man up hill if he seems to be ascend
ing, and just as ready to push him
down, if tbey fancy bis f?ce is turned
that way. Iu future, neighbor
Thompson, let everything around yoa
wear an air of proeperity, and you
will be sure to prosper ;" and with a
satisfied air, Uncle Jcsbua placed his
money In. his pocket-book, ready to
meet some other claim upon his be
nevolence, whilst he whom he had
thus befriended, with light steps and
Cheerful countenance returned to hi"
happy home.
A Mighty Commonwealth.
In the course of au elcqueut speech
at a Masonic banquet in Steubeuville
the other night, Senator Updegratl"
said:
"In 1S40, when "New York stood
first and Pennsylvania second in
white population. Ohio was ninth.
Since that time its progress lias been
such a miracle of growth and prosper
ity, that its history and statistics
seem a fable and a taisehood to toe
amazed people of older and slower
countries. In 1S70 its constantly in-
creasmz population was l!,G0o,J((J.
Last year the aggregate assessed value
of its daily augmenting real and per
sonal property was Sl,524,3i3,118.
Tne true value of the same is set down
at 52,335,403,394, or about four times
what it was In 1S.30. There are iu the
state 20,000,000 acres of cultivated
land, which last year yielded -MO,000,-000
worth of farm products. There
are now 141,041,000 Invested in man
ufacturing, supplying 137,200 men
with labor, and yielding la.t year a
product of 300,000,000. In 1S71 there
were mined 55,316,006 bushels of coal,
and geologists compute the amount of
available coal in the state? to bs 23,-
000,000,000 tons, and new sources of
supply are being constantly discover
ed. The supply aireaay kiiowu wouiu
famish the vast amount niiued last
year annually for more than 30,000
years. Of pig iron, that standard
staple of modsrn industry, Ohio, in
187l,manuiaciurea a.s,uuu vjus. j ve
ry ton of iron represents abouttwenty
five days' work, as nearly So pr cent.
of its value is the labor it involves.
That amount of iron manufactured
then ' means 9,825,000 days' labor,
worth $14,737,500, or tbe constant
employment of 42,750 workmen, and
the Support OI 10J,i.W AUienciiU men,
women and children. But better
and grander than all these proofs of
material prosperity comes tno crown
ing fact that during the past year
Ohio has expended more than 37,000,-
000 for educational purposes in turn-
ishing the means oi Kuowiea?o tJ eve
ry class aud couditioa within her
hnrripra. That mora than 70.000
children are now enrolled in her pub
lic schools. That a pioneer army of
27,743 teachers are to-day laying, by
noble and creative work, the founda
tions of her future freedom, greatness
and power."
Lealped by a Squaw.
Th following incident uf the recent!
hatflo Mwrrn the Sioux aud l'onca
Indians at the Ponca antncy, is told:
Hie Sioux Ulty ow i jucnu ;
i a Miftn-v lirvi hsd pained the
ih.:i M.f nt tt.a liiiilt'iir'". from
which position he was tnaoltd lo lire
; his lues irom snort range. vm;e
b was standing just at the corner of
a Knilrlliiir Inxtlinir lii.4 I'll 11. a PoilCa
squaw rushed from tbe house, and bt-
.. ... i . . a i . : ,.
lore tne oioux cou.u ueieuo iiiu.ncii,
gave him a slashing cut across the ab
domen with a huge knife. As the
struck him tbe Sioux iuvoluntarily
bent lorward, clasping his abdomen
with both hands, aud just at that in
stant the squaw grabbed him by tbe
hair, and with a savage stroke of the
knife scalped him. Shaking her go' y
tropnyaioic, ana giving a sunn try
of defiance, site darted back into the
building in safety, followed by a doz-
vfflo Kalla from aa man v Sioul. Who
from a distance saw the result of the
sortie. Tbe effect was p.-rfecily mad
dening npon the Sioux, fur tu have
one of their warriors scalped by a
squaw, was a disgrace which coald
Only be wiped nut by the blood of the
entire band of Poncas. Tbey rushed
for the buildings, but met with a fire
which laid many of them low, .and
tho rest retired to a safe ditance
without having injured their foes.
The act of the equaw seemed to in
spire the Poncas, aad. flaunting from
wiudow tho scalp ofthe unfortunate
Sioux, tbey uttered yells f derision
aud contempt which nearly drove the
Sioux frantic."
A Denver journalist, whose name,
had be lived he lived iu Jerusalem iu
the first century, would probably
have appeared in tbe lifth chapter of
Acts iustead of that ot Ananias, has
created a model sensation. While a
mother is washing her baby her
daughter appears covered with blood
and says that she has cutoff Johnny's
head. The mother ask "Why?"
"B;cause you said you'd do it if be
took any pressrvrs, aud he took
some." The mother imprinted a
knock of affiCtion on her daughter's
brow with a wash-board, killing her
Immediately, then dropped the baby
into a tab of cabling water, then
rushed from tbe house a howlinjr
maniac, uttering shrieks which filled
nearly two columns of the paper.
Prudent mothers in Denver now no
longer wash their babies.
The Xew Haven Ecgintrr says: "A
gentleman living in the western part
f tbe city came home from Boston,
on tbe owl train, a few nigtU siDce,
and, applying the ni"ht-key, walked
into his neighbor's house 'instead of
bis own they facing twin-hoa-es.
Thinking lio would tike "a bite of
ei'.' and somtthins" before retirinz,
be fc-'.t his way into the pantry, where
it was usually kept, and missing tbe
cake-basket from its customary place
on the shelf, be sua? oct (man-fashion
when he cannot find things in an
instant) 'Wife! wife! where on earth
have you put the cake basket? At
the same in-tant his hand tumbled a
pitcher to the floor, with a terrible
cnsb. This brought down stairs the
real ruan of the hoae, with a re
volver in one hand a lighted candle
in tbe other, when explanations
ensued, and the right man was soon
after in the right place."
An exceedingly valuable and desir
able paint far rough buildings may be
made as follows: Take two ounces
of sal-ammoniac and two ounces of
potash, dissolve these in three quarts
of water; add one quart raw linseed
oil, then take, say ten pounds dry red
paint, and add water to make it thin
enough to put It on with a white
wash brush. Add one gill turpentine
to the linseed oiL If red does not
suit, add anything to alter the color.
Paint mads as above will be almost
as bright in ten or twelve years on
rough buildings aa when first put on.
To make the buildings fancy, yoa
may paint the corner boards with
white lead and oil.
Tiiere is a power in silent influence.
It is not what good men say which
gives them power over their fellow
men, so much as tbe fact that tbey
are Christians, and do Christian acu,
and live Christian lives. A silent, se
cret, but powerful influence goes out
from them and their acts even when
they are not -consciously seeking to
exercise any influence at all. In sim
ply being for Christ tbey are acting for
Christ.
Instead of wonders ceasing when
we enter heaven, they will bat in
crease, for tbe more we know, the
more wonderful does everything be
come. Wonder belongs to knowledge
not to experience. T'e learned man
wonders at a flower, or insect, while
the ignorant or the child, fees noth
to attract his attention. A primrose,
I doubt not, is more an object of ad
miration aud wonder to an angel than
to us.
A Western reporter thus describes
the toilet of the belle at a late ball.
"She was magnificent In a green cali
co over a crinoline full four inches
larger than the rest of her apparel, a
white apron with red strings, blue
stockings, a yellow neck-ribbon, and
white eotton gloves. Her reddish
hair was fastened in a pug behind,
and well adorned with the tail feath
ers of the rooster she had for dinner."
Many farmers are seriously annoyed
with chilblains. Tbe following has
been found to be an effective remedy:
Bathe the parts affected in strong al
um water, or in a saturated solution
of saltpeter. Continue the applica
tion a week or two, and it will cure.
An opponent of woman's rights to
hold school offices says that she can't
travel through snow-drifts with im
punity. Why not let her travel with
a horse and cutter, then ?
"Would you believe the witness un
der bath?" asked a lawyer. "Xo, sir,"
was the reply, "if you asked him the
time of day he would lie about it."
Most arts require long study and
applieation; but the most uselul art
of all, that of pleasing, requires only
the desire.
