A short time since there was a spell

gregational Church, Hartford, Conn.,
and Mr. Samuel L. Clemens, (Mark
Twain,) being called on for a few
preliminary remarks, : spoke as fol
lows: ".Ladies and Gentlemen I have
been honored with the offlce'of intro-
cing these approaching orthographical
solemnities with a few remarks. The
temperance 'crusade swept the land

of the land where it was needed, but
it skipped Hartford.- Now comei tills

it, for I don't see any use in having a
uniform and arbitrary way of spelling

Sameness is tiresome; variety is pleas
ing. I have a correspondent whose
letters are always a refreshment to
me; there is always suen a oree , un
fettered originality about his orthog
raphy. He spells kow with a large

it gives the imagination a broader

the mind a grand, vague, impressive,

'O-r-a-n-g, orang, g-e-r, ger, t-a-n-lg,

Mr. Private Secretary Brown, who
has attended to all the purchases of
the President's sick room and receipt
ed for all the iroods received, estimates
.h post of the President's sickness at
100,000, which would be at the rate
of SI, 250 a dav. Ut tim cost tne doc
tors' bills will form the largest item,
say S5:,00a. Of this amount Dr. Bliss
will want 925,000,. Drs. Agnew and
Hamilton 12,000 each, Dr. Iteyburn,
3,00, and Mrs. Dr. Kdson, 1,000.
Drs. Woodward and Barnes will get

recognize their services as being not

Tim ovvionso at Klberon are set

1,000, including the decoration of

on him and throw him out on the path
to the gate, and then he will turn and
slap the girl where the dress is pleated,
and she will go up stairs with her
hand on her heart, as it were; The
young men of this country have gall
enough about visiting girls in the
evening at their homes, without, till
ing their heads with any such ideas in
regard to their legal rights. There are
very few fathers that would quietly
submit to beine- told to co awav by a
young man with a striped necktie, and
pants too short at the bottom. T hese
snarlrars are looked unon bv liareuts
generally as a nuisance, and often thoy
are right. Nine-tenths of the spark
ing is done by boys who havn't got
their growth and they look so green
that it is laughable to the old folks to
look at them. And yet marrying is
about the first thing they think of.
A green boy without a dollar, present
or prospective, sparking a girl regu
larly and talking about marrying, is a
spectacle for gods and men. He should
be reasoned with, and if lie will not
quit until lie is able to support a wife,
and to know how he' loves and the
difference between love and passion,
he should be quarantined, or put in a
convent erected on purpose for such
cases. Nine-tenths of the unhappy
marriages are the result of green hu
man calves being allowed to run at
lanre in the society pasture without
any yoke on them. They marry, and
have children before they do mous
taches; they are fathers of twins be-

of pants, and the little girls they mar
ry are old women before they are
: twnntv venr old; Occasionally one
)f these L'oslimr marriages turns out all
riyht. but it is a clear case of luck. If
there was a law against young galoots
sparking and marrying before they
have got all their teeth cut, we sup
pose the little cusses would evade in
same way, but there ought to be a sen
timent against it. It is time enough
for these bantams to begin to think of
finding a pullet when they have
raised money enough by their own
work to buy a bundle of lathes to
build a hen house, imt they see a
girl that looks cunning, and they are
afraid there is not going to be girls
A strong hint. A -Parisian lady
called on her milliner the other day to
"take up" the character of a servant.
The respectable apionrance of the lat
ter was beyond questioning. "But is
she honest?" asked the lady. "I am j
not so certain about that," replied the !
milliner; "I have sent her to you with j
my bill a dozen times, ami , nlic lias
never yet given me the nney."
Definition. A schoolboy being
asked to define tho word "admission,"
said it. 'meant twenty-five cents.
"Twenty-five cents!" echoed the
schoolmaster; what sort of a definition
do you call that?" "I don't- know,"
sulkily replied the boy; "but I'm sure
it says so on the board down- there at
the show." "Yes," said another boy,
"and children half price."
