Show SOMETHING WHICH deserves to be quoted in every paper of the Union, is said by the New Haven Register, under the heading, "Grown up Babies." Read it as follows: The young man who, under the pressure of the least real or fancied adversity, takes to drink, is a grown up baby; but he is nursing the wrong bottle. The young man who is ashamed of his mother because she does not "put on style," and of his father because he does not use elegant language, is a baby that had no business to have ever grown up. An overdose of soothing syrup would have been a blessing to him. The eighteen year old girl who is sentimental, and sighs for his early coming at the gate-well, she is a grown up baby that likes to sit in the lap as well as she ever did. |
