After the conclusion of the festivities, she assured her father and cousin that this had been the most joyous birth-day anniversary she had ever known. The tears of the morning, like showers in April, had been chased away by the beaming sua of happiness, and had left no impress. On the following day she read with transport a letter from her bcfore-meDtioned absent lover, containing intelligence of the success of his expedition, and a promise of speedy return, and withal couched in such winuing, affectionate terms as to awaken the slumbering, but not extinguished flame in her heart.—Long she wept over her past ingratitude in having well-nigh forgotten one, who for her sake had lorsaken home and friends, and nobly braved the perils of theoccan and dangers of a sickly climate, to seek a fortune equal to her own, since his lofty soul shrunk from dependency, and buried with impatience to distinguish himsflf front the grovelling fortune-hunters, who ever beset a beautiful heiress—and such was Emily Howard. It is, we admit, impossible at all times to be animated, gay and cheerful. Sickness, sorrow and disaster are, more or less, the lot of every human being. There are likewise, times and seasons when it is almost impossible to rally one's spirits and to appear otherwise than sad and oppressed—a shadow seems to rest upon the heart, and to forbode coming evil. This is often the result of indisposition, of business anxiety and vexation, or of a "dull and murky atmosphere." There is moreover, l,a season for all things and it is perhaps well, occasionally to be calm, thoughtful and contemplative."O 8 E. would call the attention or merchants of Northern Pt-nnsylvania to their extensive stock of Fish, Fruit, Oils and Provisions, which they will tell upon as favorable terms as any house in New York city. ■ AMI*.

At the sound of Mr. Howard's voice, the lady on the stool had raised her eyes, and nnd immediately discovered her to be the beforo-mentioned Mrs. Wilmot's eldest daughter, and one of her most particular friends. With a formal bow for Mr. IIow. ard, and a chilling smile for Emily, she turned to Mr. C'ourtland with—"I see nothing that quite pleases me," and minced out of the store.

O, look Emily ! said Louisa, following her with her eyes ; what a widdlc-waddle piece of work that girl makes of walking. Why Louisa, exclaimed Mr. Howard, smiling, that is what they call graceful. (Late A. Wright 8 Nephew,) Yet,*in a general sense, and as a rule of conduct, we have great faith in cheerful, ness. We regard it as one of the brightest and most commendable of the gentler virtue—one that, like a ray of sunshine, adorns and beautifies everything it touches, gilds nnd glorifies the human countenance, and is a golden and holy emanation from the buoyant and impulsive heart within. Ilow essential to the household circle is cheerfulness. How like the voice of the morning lark—blithe gay and mounting— is the free laugh of innocence and youth! And how difficult it is to seem dull, weary and depressed, with such a sound of purity and pleasure ringing through one's senses! Every household circle should be gladdened and made joyous by some cheerful, winsome spirit!—At times, we admit, the reudy jest and the-light laugh may seem out of place ; and yet, if harmless if meant to aiilird pleasure, if designed tochaso8way moody thoughts and fancied grievances, the tendency, the influence cannot but be for good ■ —To young wives and young husbands, the duty, the policy, the beauty and the propriety of cheerfulness cannot be too earnestly urged. Such "favored mortals" should commence their matrimonial career with u determination to make each other happy, nay, to render their little home a refuge and a haven at all times and seasons, a calm yet joyous temple of peace and social harmony, the brightest, sunniest, most checrful spot on this side the grave.

But alas ! for their schemes; Sir Edward was not to be entrapped by art, since his travels in foreign countries, and his knowledge of the fashionable world, had sickened him of intriguing mammas or affected misses. True, he was charmed with Emily's beauty and accomplishments ; and, had she appeared a little more naturally, there is no telling what might have happened. As it was he had never thought of. marrying her. So fastidious was he that his most intimate friends already accounted him a bachelor; and he, despite of his domestic tastes and admiration of woman, sometimes feared lest he should never find the beau ideal of his imagination, in which case lie would most assuredly fulfil his friends predictions. Feb. 7, 1851 At that moment Sir Edward, who really pittied Emily, who sat like a statute, proposed music, and prevailed on a young lady, whom he knew to be well skilled, to take her seat at the piano.

The way to make ourselves pleasing to others is to show that you care for them. The whole wofld is like the miller at Mansfield, "who cared for no nobody—no, not he, because nobody cared for him." And the whole world will serve you so, if you give them the same cause. Let every one, therefore, see that you do care for them, by showing them what Sterne so happily calls, "the small, sweet courtesies of life," those courtcsics in which there is no parade, whose voice is too still to tease, and which manifest themselves by tender and affectionate looks, and little kind acts of attention—giving others the preference in every little enjoyment at the table, in the field, walking sitting, or standing. This is the spirit liiat gives to your time of life and to your sex, their sweetest charm. It constitutes the sum total of al! the witchcraft of woman. Let the world see that your first caru is for yourself, and you will spread the solitude of the upas tree around you, in the same way, by the emanation of a poison which kills all the juices of affection in its neighborhood. Such a girl may be admired for her understanding and accomplishments, but she will never be beloved. The seeds ol love can never grow but under the warm and genial influence of kind feelings and affectionate manners. Vivacity goes a great way in young persons. It calls attention to her who displays it; and, if it then be found associated with a generous sensibility, its execution is irresistible. On the contrary, if it be found in alliance with a cold, haughty, selfish heart, it produces no further eflfcet, except an ad. verse one. Attend to this, my daughter. It flows from a heart that feels for you all the anxiety a parent can feol, and not without the hope which constitutes the parent's highest happiness. May God protect and bless vou.

Are there not some who have periodical fits of ennui and melancholy—who assume to be wretched, without the slightest cause—who wear a constant frown upon the brow, and repel everything like life, vivacity and good humor ? Are there not some gentle wives, who despite the fact that their husbands are compelled by the necessities of the case to toil assiduously and arduously, day and after day, year after year, with the object of maintaining a respectable position in society, and providing the comforts of social and civilized existence for the cherished ones at home,- seem to lack everything like a proper sense of appreciation, and to exact as a right all that is provided and done, while they at the same time murmur and are "out of temper" because more is not accomplished ? They forget that one of their duties is to encourage and to cheer, and thus to manifest a proper sense as well of respect as of affection. They know little or nothing of the cares of the out door world, and they are unmindful of the hallowed obligations of home. A cordial welcome after the toils of the day is rarely thought of.
