A Quaker Jumping a Bitch.
Ilezekiah JJroadbrim was a fair Quaker, who
sold molasses, codfish, china, earthenware and
clothes and all sorts of liquors. We like the
Quakers, in deed as well as in name. And
Ilezekiah was a Hickory Quaker He was
somewhat of an old bachelor, and had a sister
that was somewhat of an old maid. JJut she
was the best creature alive, straight as a candle
blooming- as a rose, and smiling as charitv.
Her name w'as Dorcas.
Hezekiah and Dorcas walked one Sunday
afternoon, in the Idooming month of May, to
breathe, the fresh air, and vie; tlte meadows.
The walking was smooth and delightful, with
no manner of obstructions, except here and
there a ditch full of water,; span wed iiy-, a ...few
hedges, and too wide j for .' a f tuao . of ordinary.
capacity to1 cross at a guttle .boandc-lful; Hez
li, , . , . . '.. . ,
do, on his agility, and instead of walking a few
iods for the sake of a bridge, he must needs
leap every ditch he came to. '
"Thee'd better not try that, Ilezekiah," said
the kind and considerate sistec
'Never thee mind, Dorcas,' replied Ilezekiah;
"there's no danger; I've jumped a bigger ditch
when I wasn't half my present size."
"All that's very likely, but recollect thee's
grown exceedingly pussy since thee was a young
man."
. ''Pussy! well, if I have that's no reason why
I shouldn't be as agile as before; I tell thee,
Dorcas, I can jump this ditch without so much
as touching a finger."
'.'Aye, but thee'l touch thy feet to the
bottom."
"Thee's but a woman, Dorcas, and thy fears
magnify this ditch even to a river. Now stand
thee aside that I may have sweep according
to my abilities."
Nay, brother Ilezekiah, thee'd better not.
The ditch is wide and the bottom muddy, and
thee'l assuredly spoil thy Sunday clothes if no
worse."
"Oh, fudge for yonr fears, girl; they shall
not stay me a jot. Nay, do not hold me, I am
resolved to jump this ditch if it were merely to
convince thee of my agility." I
Accordingly Ilezekiah went back a few yards
in order that he might have a fair run and that
the impulse thereof inight carry him over.
Having retraced far enough he came forward
with a momentum proportioned to his weight
and velocity and found himself in the ditch.
The water splashed around on all sides and
splotted the Sunday clothes of Dorcas, who
could not, with till her Quaker sobriety and
kind feeling, help bursting into a loud laugh!
There was Hezekiah showing his agility and
floundering in the mud like a whale! The
wtitci was not so deep ns to be dangerous, and
(the scene too irresistibly comic for even a saint
. to abstain from hi no-hii,,,- thomrh on the Lord's
day.

Nay, nay, Ilezekiah, thee has shown
tl

agility so marvelously that I could not help
being pleased for the life of me and now I
take shame to. myself for opposing thee so
strenuously; or having doubted thy capacity
for jumping. But, if thee's satisfied with thy
exploit and ready to come forth; I will lend
thee, a hand to help thee out."
Thus saving, Dorcas drew near the ditch,
but Hezekiah, having got himself in by his
unaided power, declared he would get himself

in- 11 , iv.f i i,

got the other 111; and thus he continued to
lahor and plunge till he was satisfied that his
mvn ability was better calculated to help him in
than to help him out of the ditch! He grew
wroth, and so far forgot the plain language
that he exclaimed:
'By !"
"Don't thee swear, brother Hezekiah," in
terrupted Dorcas.
"Swear!" roared Hezekiah, "thee'd swear if
thee was in here !"
"Swear not at all, Hezekiah, but even lend
me thine hand, and FH use mv ability to pull
thee out. according to the Scripture, which
sayeth If thine own ox or thine ass fall into a

"Now, sister Dorcas, thee is too bad. Verily
thee should not make, me so heavy as the
former animal, norso stupid as the latter."
As to thy weight, returned Dorcas, "thee
must be pretty well satisfied by this time; and
as for thy stupidity, it were indeed unsisfeiiy
to like thee to the long cared animal. But if
thee is satisfied on these points, and will forth-
with reach me thine hand, I'll do as much as in
me lieth to bring thee sale to land.
Hezekiah was prettv well convinced by this
time, that his ow n ability would never fetch him
out; wherefore, humbly reaching his hand to
Dorcas, he said, "verily, sister I will accept
thine aid, inasmuch as my own ability hath
deceived me."
Dorcas kindly lent her assistance, and pulling
vigorously, Ilezekiah at length came to land.
Shaking off the mad and water like a spaniel,
he returned home, but charged his sister by the
way never to mention how he came by the
cttastrophc. Dorcas promised of course, and as
she was a girl of truth and kind feelings, she
was as good as her word. But once or twice
when they were in company with several other
Quakers, "discoursing soberly about matters and
things, Dorcas, looking archly at another girl,
merely said, "Did I ever tell the Bachael, how
brother Hezekiah one Sunday "
Ilezekiah turned an embarrassing and implor
ing look toward her, and she said:
"Nay, nay, Ilezekiah, I'm not going to tell
but merely to ask if I ever had told how thee
showed thy agility one Sunday, and jumped in
the middle of a ditch?" .
Baienoi and the Jerome Company Result
of the Xew Haven Alecting. The meeting of
the creditors of the Jerome Company and of
P. T. Barnaul, at New naven, on Monday
night last, resulted in a recommendation to the
Jerome Company to go into liquidation. They
have done so. Mr Barnum has also gone into
an assignment.
With all thy getting, get wisdom.
A Ilard-Shrll Sermon.
.We find the following short bnt decided
''Hard Shell Sernnii'1 going the rounds of the
papers without a sign of credit, although the
scene, as they have it in theatrical parlance,
is laid in the interior of Kentucky. It is aver
red that the thing is genuine that the sermon
or harangue was really delivered. De this as
it may, it almost equals, in closeness of argu
ment and stickiness to text, the "spontaneous
clTorts of the clerical hero who played so dustily
upon H 'JIurp t.f a Thousand Strings.' I3ut
read the sermon and judge for yourselves:
My Hreethring: The Scriptures tell ns, "we
are buried with Christ by baptism." "llitried"
my friends, not PsprimkUcF by baptism. v. '
- Supple tbat one of you ntl lost ybor little
da'ter, iitt you hiI. laid her out, and; prepared ;
herfo;tl6g0Ee5 atfd ypar,eiglVors.nad come"-" t
hrin( rYi:i, wre'wilr-ittke''ti-clit1tr-i'
and bury it ;" and afterward, when you went
out to see the grave of your little one, you
found they had laid her down and sprinkled a
little earth over her! What would you have
t hunk of them !
Suppose, ugjiin, that in the fall of the year,
you had dug your potatoes, your turnips, your
parsnips, and yonr other roots for winter's use.
I and had dug a trench to bury 'cm in; and you
1 had said lo your servant: 'Sally, take the hou.-e-
gang ami go and bury those potatoes, those
turnips, t hose parsnips and other roots;' and
afterwards, when you walked forth to see that
till were secure for the winter's use, you had
found that they had just sprinkled & little dirt
on them! What my friends, would you have
done? 1 rather suppose, my dear breetheren,
you w ould ha' tried the virtews of the cowskin !
Int they arc not a bit worse than those
poor, ignorant, and be.iig-i)ted Episcopalians,
Presbyterians, and Methodists, who sprinkle a
leetle water ou one another, and call it "burial
by baptism !"'
I am afraid, my friends, I am very much
afraid indeed, t hat they will catch something
hotter than the cowskin in tiie day of leck'-
uing 1
Bit. lying a Witnkss. One likes always o
see a lawver, whose forte is to bantcrand bully
witnesses, brought up with a round turn by
some victim of his ill-natured bearing. We
heard an instance the other day which is w orth
relating. A case was beiny; tried ou Long
Island, about the soundness of a horse, in which
a clergyman, not conversant in such mutters,
was a witness. lie was a little confused in
giving his evidence, and a blustering fellow of
a lawyer, who examined him at last exclaimed:
"Prav. sir. do vou know the difference be
tween a horse and a cow?''
"I acknowledge my ignorance," replied the
clergyman, "I hardly know the difference be
tween a horse and a cow, or a bully and a bull,
only that a'bull litis horns, and a "bully" (bow
ing with mock respect to the pettifogger)
luckily for imr, has none
"You can retire, sir," said the lawyer, "I've
no further questions to ask you."
Moistche r,v Dkkt Plowing. Morrison
says in the Farm Journal, that he broke up a
stiff sod for corn w ith a heavy plow, drawn by
four oxen. A sub-soil plow followed, running
down six or seven inches deeper.' The whole
was so thoroughly performed, that a stick
could be thrust down into the loose earth, in
almost any part of the field, to the depth of
fifteen inches. The summer was exceedingly
dr', pastures were burnt anil bare and till the
crops suffered severely. Bnt the corn on the
sub-soil hind continued green and luxuriant
throughout the season.
'Dr. Kalopium, do you think my darter will
git well?'
. "AVell, if she don't git no wnss, and does git
sun; better, she may possibly git over it. You
see she's a dieted with a concatenation of the
diagnosis of the metacarpial liummux, which
extends from the noboscis to the inferior
lobe of the anterior revolution of the occiput.
Nothing kin help her but calomel' and per
simmons taken jintly both together a spoon
ful, more or less, according to the symptoms,
every other day, olf and on. Them will
eventoolay put her out of pain and into a sweat
and restore a healthy action of the minor
pedals and reduce the encyclopedia of the
neuralgic diaphragram, immediately under the
left side of the right eye.'
'Lor' a mercy, sich la ruin'! who'd a thunk it?'
Sale ok pews in a fashionable cir-kch.
The pews of one of the fashionable "up-town"'
churches of New York were sold on Monday
last. The Post says:
"At first the bidding was quite animated,
! but it soon fell off, and premiums ran down to
alow figure. there were twelve pews 111 tlte
cfmrch valued at $1,000 each and upwards
none, however, above $1,200. These twelve
pews wold at an aggregate premium of $l,74o;
the highest premium .being $3o0, and the low est
$20. The w hole number of pews sold was
sixty-three, and they brought, in the aggregate
something over $;3''J,000y of which more than
$4,500 was in premiums.
The Nation's Exthavagance. Yor the
year ending August 31st, lS5f, we Americans
imported from Europe, for our own heads and
those of our wives and daughters, $l,iSe2,.'jG0
worth of bonnets, of silk, straw, and leghorn,
and of hats and caps. Yet how few of the
head pieces one sees give evidence of having
been sent for 3,0Q miles away. All are seem-'
bigly homemade. In that same year, Young
1 'id Old America treated themselves to $3,732,
;..") worth of watches, chronometers, and clocks
of European make. Their . appetite, too, for
foreign jewelry, was baited with $974,120 worth
of the articleupon w hich, without sighing, they
paid a duty of thirty per cent. Of leather to
cover their hands at:d feet, they sent across
the ocean and bought to the tune of $3,067, 60
enough to hide-bind the nation, and sicken it
in various ways.
When Edward Everett was entertained at a
public dinner before leaving Boston, Judge
Story gave as a sentiment "Genius is sure to
