THE BEST COW 1N

Qld farmer B is a stingy man, he ca!

He keeps all he gets and he

By all his friends he is said to be Astight as the bark on a young birch tree ;

He goes to church, and he rents a pew, Hut the dimes he gives to the Lord are few, If he gets to heaven with the good and great

He will be letin at the smallest gate,

Now farmer B, besides drags and ploughs, | <eeps a number of very good calves and

What do thecily folks know about milk?

I'll put the sparkling water in.’ Thus talked to himself old farmer B

How mean he is young and o!d can see. One night it was dark, oh fearfully dark ;

rhe watch-dog never came out to bark , Old farmer B in his bed did snore,

When rap, rap, rap, nearly shattered the

h a hastey breath,

Clipping off the end of a rousing snore,

Farmer B bounded out on the bed-room |

floor ;

And the midnight voice was heard no more.

He pulled on his pants, he knew not how,

For his thoughts were all on the choking cow. He flew to the yard like a frightened deer,

For his stingy soul was filled with fear ; Looking around by his lantern’s light,

He found that the cows were there all right.

I will give a dime,’ cried farmer B,

‘To know who played that trick on me; May the hand be stiff and the knuckle be sore Phat knocked to-night on

With a scowl on his face and a shaking head,

Farmer B again sought his nice,warm bed,

No good thoughts came, they were all over- powered ;

The tittle good natu:

When he went to water his milk next day, The midnight voice seemed again to sey, As he pumped away with panting breath Your best cow, neighbour, is choking to death !" The meaning of this he soon found out For a stone was driven in the old pump’s spout.

Old farmer B when he drives to town, Now meets his neighbors with a savage frown ; They smile and ask, as they kindly bow, ‘How getteth along the best cow now?’

GENIUS AND DEBT.

Men of genius are equally facile in running into debt. Genius has no necessary con- nection with prudence or self-restraint, nor does it exercise any influence over the com- mon rules of arithmetic which are rigid and inflexible. Men of genius are often superior to what Bacon calis ‘the wisdom of busi. | Yet Bacon himself did not foilow his own advice, but was ruined by his improvis dence. He was in straits and difliculties when a youth, and in still greater straits and

THE EDUCATION OF BOYS.

rh ac ‘ ) ial, although devoted

hiefly to the occupants of the poultry yard i animal pets, is not unmindful of a higher order of life than that of chickens, dogs or rabbits, The following article upon boys and their education is worthy the consider- fall who may be engaged in moulds

These are no slight bur- dens, nor can we easily satisfy or evade the duty of preparing to care for the vast issues that await them, and to this end we submit | a few suggestions to the benefit of the ‘ com- | ing man In our land, where schools are everywhere, | the boy who has not acquired the rudiment- ary elements of education, at least, will not easily escape being himself responsible therefor, and we take for granted that his In fact, | parents too often delude themselves into the | belief that in obliging regular attendance at text-books and paying beral tuition bills, they have fully discharg- ed the responsibility resting upon them, be- lieving schoo! learning the alpha and omega of education.

education

| not only qualifies for the eertain success of

the scholar there, but twined with the mem- ory of youthful days and home, sinks deepest and most permanently lessons of truth and manhood, becoming thereafter the inspiration of the noblest and best deeds of life. Felt rather than seen, this influence should sur- round the boys’ leisure hours, seeing that even the relaxation of play and amusement

contributes to some good purpose, either

| mental or physical, preventing bad associa-

tions, or the formation of evil habits. From

| the very cradle upward, this influence must

watch the unveiling of the talent, know its strength and weakness, ready to eneourage

the good and smother the evil, and, with all the strength of home, encourage every laud- able ambition, sharing success and comferts ing failures. Ever fertile with expedients, see that the idle hours are tempted to rational and profitable employment, something that will call out the tact,which, while It possses- ses sufilcient attraction of interest and amu- sement, shall appeal by its possible profit to

difficulties when a man. His life was splen- did, but his excessive expenditure involved | him in debt which incurred a perpetual de- | sire for money. One day in passing out to} his ante-chamber, where his followers awaited his appearance, said: ‘be seated, my masters; your rise has been my fall.’ To supply his wants Bacon took bribes, and was | therefore beset by his enemies, convicted,de- graded and ruined.

But Bacon by no means stood alone. Lord Me!ville was as unthrifty in the management of his own affairs es he was of the money of the public. Fox was an enormous ower, his financial! maxim being thata man need never want money if he was willing to pay enough for it. Fox caHed the outer room at Alman- ack’s where he borrowed on occasions from Jew lenders at exhorbilant premiums, his | ‘Jerusalem Chamber.’ Passion for play was | his great vice, and at a very early age it in- | voived him in debt to an enormous extent. It is stated by Gibbon that on one occasion Fox sat playing at haszard for twenty hours in succession, losing $11,960. But deep play was the vice of high life in those days, and cheating was not unknown. Selwyn, al- luding to Fox's losses at play called him Charles the martyr.

Sheridan was the hero of debt. He lived on it. Though he received large sums of money one way or another, no one knew what become of it, for he paid nobody. It seemed to melt away in his hands like snow in summer. He spent his first wife’s fortune of £1,600 in a six week's jaunt to Bath. Necessity drove him to literature, and _per- haps to the stimuius of poverty we owe ‘ The Rivals,’ and the dramas which succeeded it. With his second wife he obtained a fortune of $5000, and with $15,000 which he realized by the sale of Drury Land shares he bought an estate in Surrey, from which he was driven by debt and duns. The remainder of his life was a series of shifts,sometimes brilliant, but oftener degrading, to raise money and evade creditors. Taylor of the Opera-house, used to say that ifhe took off his hat to Sheri- dan in the street it would cost him fifty pounds ; but if he stopped to speak to him it would cost him one hundred pounds.

He was in debt all round—to his mi/kman, his grocer, his butcher, and his baker. Sometimes Mrs. Sheridan would have to wait for an hour or more, while the servants would be beating up the neighborhood for eoffee, butter, eggs and rolls. WhileSheridan was paymaster of the Navy a butcher one day brought a leg of mutton tothe kitchen. The cook took it and clapped it in the pot to boii, and went up stairs for the money; but not returning, the butcher eooly removed the pot lid, took out the leg of mutton and walked away with itin his tray. Yet while living jn these straits, Sheridan, when invited with his son to the country, usually went in two chaises and four—he in one and his son Tom following in the other. The end of all was very sad. For some weeks before his death he was nearly destitute of the means of sub- sistence. His noble and royal! friends had entirely deserted him. Executions for debt were in his house, and he passed his Jast days

in the custody of the sheriff's oflicers, who abstained from conveying him to prison merely because they were assured that to re- move him would cause immediate death.

Even men with a special genius for finance on a grand seale may completely break down in the management of their own private affairs. Pitt managed the national finances during a period of unexampled difficulty, yet was himself always plunged in debt, Lord Carrington, ex-banker, once or twice, at Mr. Pitt's request, examined his household acs counts, and found the quantity of butchers’ meat charged in the bills was one hundred weight a week, The charge for servants’ wages, board wages, living, and household bills exceeded £2300 ayear. At Pitt's death the nation voted £40,000 to satisfy the des

mands of his creditors; yet his income bad

never been less than £6000 a year; and at one time, with the wardenship of the Cinique

Ports, it was nearly £4000 a year more.

In a book called ‘ courtship, love and mat- rimony.’ published in 1660, there is this clause concerning the privileges of women in leap year: ‘Albeit it is now become a/ part of the common laws, in regard to social | relations of life, that as often as every bis- sextial year doth return, the laydes have the sole privilege during the time it continueth, of making love unto the men, which they doe, either by words or lookes, as to them it seemeth prefer ; and, moreover, no man will be entitled to the benefit of the clergy, who dothe in any wise treat her proposals with slight or coutumely.’

Youturut Vear—.Some of our unsophisti- cated souniry cousins have an impression that the younger the veal they bring to St. John market the better for the numerous population of this city. Ifit had not been for this delusion itis not probable that any body would have run the risk, on Saturday last, of offering in the market—and we be- lieve selling—a calf that was not more than two days old! About the same time, « there might have been seen ’ hanging in a butcher's shop in this city a carcass of veal, so called, the flesh of which was nearly as black asa stove pipe, which attracted attention by an attempt to give the lean, disgusting stuff the appearance of the fatted calf, by covering a portion of it with the caul of mutton! If some of our country friends, aided by third- rate meat retailers, do not poison a moderate proportion of the population of this city, the ault will not be theirs.—S/. John Watchman:

Tae Exvement or Pruck.—People in pe cuniary misfortunes, in estimating their lia- bilities and resources,seldom consider among the latter the element of pluck. The tend- ency with all unfortunates is to magnify difficulties, and underrate or forget all their power to overcome them. A man in good health with unsullied character, need fear no evil, nor be robbed of his happiness, no mat- ter how adversely things may appear. If he is heavily in debt, and can satisfy the com- munity that he is straining every nerve and appropriating all his resources to discharge all his obligations, there is no fear of him losing a well-earned reputation, and there is no reason why he should not be cheerful in his family and joyous in hisownheart. The self-consciousness of integrity, coupled with the approving smile of the Father above, should enable a man to face every foe and surmount every difficulty. If instead of burdensome debt he is overtaken by fire and flood, so that the accumulated comforts of years are swept away in an hour, he gains nothing by sitting down, folding his arms, and lamenting over his misfortune. Better by far to unflinchingly push onward and resolutely try to regain what he has lost. ‘Up and atit,’is a familiar but expressive phrase. Pluck is a lever which upheaves difficulties. Before a resolute man,the green withes of adversity snap like threads of tow.
