THE T5ASUP0L LOVER.
Ah,"wenr John came'to-nightand stood
For Tall an'hour-beiide the-bars;
And we two watched,' between the trees.
, The, glimmer of the moon and stars.
John acted very strange, I think
1 wish I knew the reason why ;
I really though tJie meant to ssy ,
Something to-night besides good-by.
John's coming-here quite often-nbw;
I'm sure,! don't'know why he should
Aithongh my sister Jenny says
It's talked about the neighborhood
That he is making love to me
The strangest XbingT ever heard ; , -For
J ltlrue, how queer it is
That John has neve; said a word".
1 f
Ah, well! Ishouldn't care so much 1 .'
If JohnJiimself had told me so;
For then he might have said it all
Upon lihrown account, yon know.
But he's so bashful, I believe
te'd, never dare to speak outplain ;
Xhope he'll muster 'courage up-
And try It, when he comes again'.
Jt cannot be tbatl'm to blame
I'm sum I've helped him all I conld ;
I've always met him at the bars
And talked a6 any woman would
That had a lover .whom she liked,.
And waited, with her heart aglow,
For hltritto break the subject first,
And then how qulckshe'd let hlxn .know
But John-he keeps a-comlng still,
Just as he has for twelve months past;
I've thought sometimes It looked asthough
I'd have to speak njyself at last.
I'm bound thatfhe shall know the. truth,
And now, resolved, I cannot wait
For him to find it out himself,
And so. next time, I'll try my fate.

JE3II2IA JACJKSON.,
'A gust of wind blew shnrp andtout,
She-wasalone without a-feller;
I saw her tack and veer about.
And struggle with an umbrella.
It eddied round those knobby charms,
(I saw her feet, I'm only human,)
I rushed and c-iught her in'rny arms
Delicious waif! that breezy woman,
i " '' V - p :
"O, lhank you, sir, for this relief, , -
1 thought I-was about to blow up."
Said I, "That umbrella reef.
Or miss, or madam, all will go up."
She did it, as I saw the name, . :
Jemima Jacltsou on the lining,
Date, eighteen thirty, which the same
Would make her forty and declining.
J read her age as in a book.
The faded Dine spoke of the by-gone. ,
The handle with its curious crook,
Also the dog's head with an eye gone.
Jemima's face was in a veil.
Although tier ways were frank and open;
As home JL saw her through the gale
She chattered and was loosely spoken. .
Said I, "What are you snuffing for?"
Said she, "There's something burning,
stranger."
And then 1 thought of my cigar
I dropped when snatching her from dan
ger. Then peering round in anxious thought,
I quickly saw the arts or man were
Aiockery, since the Humes had caught
The news department of her panler.
I worked and shouted out of breath.
And jerked away her loose adjustabies.
But wind and fire are strong as death
When on the rampage in combustibles.
So up Jemima Jackson went.
A prev to la&htou and to folly;
No Insurance no, not a cent
Which makes it rather melancholy.

FABLED ORIGIN OJPf THE VINE.
The following fancifiil'origin of the
grape viue is thus prettily rendered
by the Wine and JFruit Reporter :
'"When Bacchus was a boy hejour
nied through Hellas, to go to .2? axia ;
and as the way was very long, he
grew tired, and aat down on a stone
to rest. Ab he sat there with his eyes
upon theeround, he Baw a little plant
growing p between his feet, and was-
so mucu pleased with it that he de
termined to take it with him and
plant it in 2axia. He took it up and
carried it away with him 7 but- as the
sun was hot he was afraid it might
wither before he reached JLits destina
tion. He found a bird's skeleton, in
to which he thrust the plant, and
went en. IButin hia hand the plant
sprouted -Ejpiast that it.tar ted out of
the bones above and below. This
gave him fresh fear of its withering,
and he cast about for a remedy. He
fdund,-a lioii's bone, wnion was'-thick-er
than the bird's skeleton, and he
stuck the skeleton with the plant in
it into the bone of the lion. Ere long
however the plant crew out or the
lion's bone likewise. Then be found
the bone of an ass, larger still than
that of the lion, so he put the lion's
bone, containing the bird's skeleton
and the plant, into the ass' bone, and
thus made his way to Naxia. When
about to set the plant, he found that
the roots had entwined themselves
around the bird's skeleton and the
lion's bone and the ass' bone, and as
he could not take it-out without dam
aging the roots, he planted it as it
was, and it came speedily., and bore,
to-his great joy, the most delicious
grapes, troin wiiicn nemaue we nrst

But behold a miracle! When men

GOTLE1C
SCHEEEER'S
JOICE.
LITTLE
There was an anecdote of Gotlieb
Rcheerer, who, twenty years ago, was
an active Philadelphia' politician, and
Vice-President Dallas, which is here
first given in print. Some .thirty
years ago, Alr Dallas was counsel in
a case in Philadelphia, and ' Mr.
Scheerer was called up as a witness.
The following questions were put by
Mr. Dallas :
"Mr. Scheerer, were youjn Harris
burg last June?"
"Last June, did 3'on say, Mt. Dal
las?" "Xes, last June; don't repeat my
question, but answer it."
After some moments of study the
answer -came. "No, Mr. Dallas, I
wa9 not in Harrisburg last June!"
"Were you in Harrisburg in July?"
He reflected again and slowly said:
"No, Mr. Dallas, I was not in Harris-1
buTjr iu'july.''
"Were you .there in August, Mr.
Scheerer?'.' . .. t j .
The witness again meditated and
saill, "No, Mr. Dallas, I was'not there
in August .w
" vYrt -you h ere in. September ?u
Here Mr, Scheerer reflected longer
than before and replied : "No, Mr.
Dallas, I was not in Harrisburg in
September."
Mr. Dallas became tired of his bar
ren result, and raising his voice said j
"Mr. Scheerer, will you telf the
court at what time you were in Har
risburg?" "Mr. Dallas," said Scheerer, "I
never was in Harrisburg in my life."
The court, the audience, and Got
lieb Scheerer enjoj-ed the joke, but
Mr. Dallas did not heartily-partakoof
.the merriment created.
A DJ2SPICAULE MULE.
The negro and mule, writes a friend
in Clinton, Louisiana, are inseparable
companions in -the Southern cotton
fields, and, like the Hiawathnn string
and bow, useless each without the
other. The lazy indifference and
careless cruelty of the one. and won-
.derful powers of endurance of severe
labor, ban treatment, and neglect ot
the other, complete, the compatibility
of the two-races necessary for the pro
duction of fourmillions of bales. A
characteristic anedote may be rels.-h-ed
by these who have-had experience
of the two. The spectator had taken
refuge from the sun's perpendicular
raj's under the shade ol a spreading
beech, and lay recumbent, enjoying
the fitful breezes and the sombre
frothiness of the country newspaper.
Along the dusty road which passed
by this retreat came jojrging a negro,
mounted on a mule, both apparently
fast asleep. As the somnolent pair
approached the spot, some wicked
sprite of the place gave the paper a
flirt, which was no sooner seen and
heard, than the mule, as mules only
know how, instantly 'swapped ends,'
and leaving the negro sprawling in
the dirt, took hi3 departure, under
full sail. The negro, half raising
himself, and wiping the dust from
eyes and mouth, watched (he retreat
fog mule for some time in silence, but
at length, unconscious of an auditor,
gave expression to this philosophic
soliloquy 1
