where he had no sooner arrived than he
discovered that his ram rod was messing,
so back he ;•sd to travel in search of the
lost article. 1n the meantime the others
not finding any gam, of note, poured
forth their vengeance on two innocent

satisfied with shooting as an amusement,

Theredahe and I don't think the con •
manic MINT* are sorry the vacation is
over, for the boys are nbt only out of
the way, bat also out of mischief *ten
at taboo'. Every one knows it to be a
melancholy fact, that juvenile mischief
is at its premium from the 7th of July
until the pith ..f Aarpist. In the Best
week of their holidays, they generally
open the first scene in the comedy, by
hitching old and worm-eaten tin ware
to the farther end of a vagrant canine,
sad losing sight of the poor animal for
dust as M Mss along the street to the
music of his own yells of terror. The
above is only one of the many tricks.,
which are the fruit of the summer hok-
days. A writer on the education of
youth, aMirms that the well laying sod
carrying on of a design t . rob an or-
chard, or other wild prank, in general -
trains up a youth insensibly to caution,
secrecy and circumspection, and fits hint
for matters of greater importance. in
short,a boy who forms paRtesand makes
himself popular in a school or college,
makes gt ret htuiness scan. or an .min

with artifice and oolruptrun. '

In the morning the store presented a
