THE  OLD  CLOAK.
BY MR-S. D-
'Pray Mr. Norton,' esclaimed a livtiJ/ lady to a fashionably dressed, handsome young man, who was standing beside her at an evening party,' pray, do you intend to remain an old bachelor all your days'! Since your return from Europe, I liave been continually cxpectinglo hear of your tnarriage, but here you have been two .years, and ypu are still, to allappearauce, ' in statu quo,' as tho lawyers say.'
' My dear Mrs. ' Hinton,' replied'the j youBg gentleman, with a smile, 'I will be frank, and tell you the real reason of iriy remaining an admirer of t.^e sex, instead of confining my attentions ,*^ any one 'bright particular star,'however much I may be dazzled by its bnlliaucy. I am ac¬ tually afraid to marry/
'Afraid!' echoed the lady, opening L'er dark eyes to their widest extent with as- tonishtiient,' 'Faintheart never won,' you know.   Arc you afraid to propose 1'
'No, madam, afraid to marry. You will laugh at me, I dare say, when I tell you Ihat my seat in church has a great deal to do with niy solitary slate, wh.'ch seems so much to e.xcilo your sarprisc'
'Wliy yes replied Mrs. Hinton,' onje is always surprised when a young man wlVo *i-wilh'o'tit meaning to flatter you/^-ts cer¬ tainly a favorite in society, (here Mr. Nor- tolJ'made her a polite bow,) and who has aii indcpcndont fortune, stiUref rains from idhioosing one of the many fair damsels wfcotn he rheels, to superinteiid his estab lishment. But what influence your seatio chiirch canbave upon the matter, I am at a loss to imagine.'
' You rhust know then, that I sit justbe- hind Miss La Mode, in' Dr. EightHead's Churcli, and the sight of her velvet cloak .absolutely frightens me from the. thought •of marrying a wife who may some day •-say to me, 'My dear, I am dying for a new velvet cloak; please to -give me two or. three? hundred dollars, and I will go to iStewart's' iiiid buy ope.' How I should shudder to hear such a request.'
¦'B.eally, Mr. Norton, this is too absurd for/(.'"i with your fortune, to talk in such a mannC"'"! .1 shaU begin t<^ think ,you' a mi¬ ser. ¦ yflu>'^''f® might dress as lestraya- ganllyas she chose,-aiid it would not/in¬ jure you. And purely you do not object to a laSy'stvearing a velvet cloak 1'
• I do not object" foanything that is coni sistcnt.butl-cannStiielpthihking splen¬ did velvet, such as (Jiieen" Victoria herself might be .satisfied wi.'h. for a corpnaUon robe", sadly out of plac^^'whei it is made ¦¦ into a.cloak, to be_ worn o'O almost all, oc-: casibns;-Particularly, whon it; is well- knowii'ttiat Mi^s La Mode'.^: father doe.s; not evere:p.^y hi-sfcaker or his i^iitcher. tf 1 were one of his poor credito"rs',,i-'Should be ttjmptiVd to; take Uio, cloak lyptn the youngiady,-in tlie'^rect.and Sell it for what it wi9ui d briiig;^ -      .:!
Mrs. Hinton" -salr'silent at this s ¦Herconspiem'-e reproached herifor she
knew that she had. on that day, purchased an elegant new mantle, although herhusr band had requested her lo be economi¬ cal in ner expenditures, as ho found it dif¬ ficult, in those trying times, to meet all'the demands made upon his purse. She was a, woman, however, of generous feelings,; as yet unhardened by resisting good im¬ pulses, and she secretly resoh od to take back' th(3 mantle tte iie.\t day, and.prevail upon the shopman to receive it, sinceit was not yet paid for. All this passed through iter mind with the rapidity of light¬ ning, and she turned round with as'tnile-to address-Mr,,Norton, when an ovef-dressed ¦young'lady, who had been sitting, an, in-, fefested listenerin the conversation, iifter-, posed.
-'If Mr. Norton wants an economical wife,' she said, 'I¦would recommend him to offer himself to Emily Hardwood. 1 think she will suit him exactly, for she has worn an old cloak all winter, with no al¬ teration—one that she has had two years, at least, to ihy knowledge.'
Mr. Norton looked at the speaker, and theunamiable expression of her counte¬ nance sunk her in his estimation forever, although he had hitherto regarded her as very pretty and interesting, and had soraer times everi thought it almost possible to love .Caroline Howard well enough to mar¬ ry her, if he could only hope to curO; Ker of the passion fordress which she displays cd. But this remark sealed herfafe, as far as he was concerned, and turning to Mrs. Hinton, lie asked—       '     •
' Who is Emily Hardwood'! Are yoti ac¬ quainted with her'! I should really like to be introduced to a young lady who has moral courage enough to wear an unfash- ionable garment, ajter having worn it al¬ ready two winters; sho must possess a more than comtrion character.' •
¦' I will introduce you with pleasure,' said Mrs.-Hinton. 'She is a sweet girlaiid a great favorite'of mine; I confess 1 hav(3 myself heen surpri-sed'at the plainnfess.pf her dress, this winter, for her father is con¬ sidered w^ealthy, and she is thei^only one of his daughters of an age lo go into so¬ ciety. That Is she, in the simple white frock, and that is her mother, by her side.' Mr. Norton wascharmed'to perceive that it was a young lady who, hy her singularly modest and unpretending appearance had attracted bis attention in the early part of the evening. He had intended to enquire her name, but lost sight of her in .the crowd, and supposed that she had retired She received hiiVi with an easy, gracefur air, and afler a few .moments passed in conversation, he thought her positively beautiful, so intelligent was the expression of her blue eyes, and so beaming the smile, with which she she listened to his lively remarks. He was also very much pleased with Mrs. Hardwood, who did not leave to her daughter the whole burden ofthe con¬ versation, as some mothers are apt to do, contenting themselves with being mere spectators.
When Mr. Norton laid his head upon the pillow, that night, it was long before he could compose his mind to sleep, being disturbed by the vision of a pair of blue eyes whicli danced before him, nottomon- tioii dark ringlcte and old cloaks, which mingled together in strange confusion^ He began to think that he hail at lasl found the object he had been so long seeking, and resolving that he would call the ne.xt day at Mr. Hardwood's, at last resigned himself to repose.
The next morning, Mrs. Hinton, in pur¬ suance of the wise resolution she had unade, attired herself to go put and was wafiing in the parlor for her carriage. The, beautifiil mantle lay on the sofa byhei- side, and she was e.taminliig it, snd mak¬ ing up her mind, afler all, she could do without it, andif she could that she ought to. At this moment, Caroline.Hott;ard, who was an intimate friend, entered.  .
Are you going out so early!' she ex- eJaimed, on seeing BIrs. Hinton readily dressed. ' I came in the • hope of seeing you at this hour; for I wished to tell you that Stewart had some of the lovUeSt man¬ tles you ever saw. I was there yesterday and looked at them. They were just ;opened, and the clerk assured, me tbat they were the only ones imported, an'd there are but a dozen altogether. I was afraid they would he all sold, yet I did not d,.'^re to buy one before asking my moth¬ er's v>ermission, for father made such a fuss last W'eek about my buying this splen¬ did silk, without consultinghim, that moth¬ er forbade my doing it again. I have bee;! all theanorning teazing her to let lile have I one, and have at last succeeded. So you must positively come and chose ono too.! But, 1 declare,' she continued, 'you have one already,' as her eyes fell upon'the so¬ fa,, for she had talked so volubly that she had ,not even paused to look around her.'
'3u.t you will come with mo, will you. notV
Mrs. Hit'to.n replied gravely—' I am go¬ ing to Stewart's to return this mantle, and I would advise you my dear. Caroline, if' you had to tease yotsr mother for leave to buy one, to deny yourself, and gratify har by informing her that you-hsive resolved to do'withont it. Fifty dollars is a great deal tp spend in such an article of dress My husband told- me this morrjng that he was afraid he should be obliged to give up bis carriage and horses, his business is so much less profitable than formerly.— -Now, you know it is absolutely necessary for his health that he should ride a great deal, and I resolved to spend as little as possible, that he might be able to enjoy his carriage'.    ¦. '-.        ; -'-
Caroline sat without speaiting until Mrs. Hinton had concluded, when she said, pettishly—
r • But you are riiarrled, and it doijs liot ¦make so much difference to you how you dress; just see hoiv' becoming this is.'— And she.tur£ed from;the glass; at which she bad been atri-atogiog the mantle in grac.eful folds over hefwell-shaped.figure; ahd.Mrs^ Hinlon could not help acknowl¬ edging that it was verybecoming indeedt •Nevertheless, she still attempted" to peiv .sijade her ybuiig-friend to fpregp the pur- .phase, for she kn.ew thatCaroiine's' father- was very fliujch invplved in. debt, and it was.feared ev«>ry daythat he would stop payment; although, jis, it'.appeared likS mapy other gentiemen'who keep the state {;of their affairs .'a secret froiiAose raost m
terested'^riHhe truth.^his',.wife anddaugli-^ ter were utterly ignorant of the -Circum-; stance. But she found-her arguments of no effect, indeed, Caroline endeavored to persuade Mrs. Hinton herself to retain the:velvet'^ho was about to.carry back.— Bufshe had too much strength bf mind to be led away by her vanity, when sheknew thither decision was right,. althoiigh she could not repress a womanish feeling.of regretat the, thought of resigniog so be¬ coming an article .of ;apparel. Mrs, Hiri- tpn wis so'in itch grieved and shocked at the selfishbess of her ypuhg friend, that she;tiiought she could never again feel to- >vards her the ?enie affeciion she haci hith¬ erto e.\perienced. "'She made, her confess that the fifty-dollars her itiotherhad "given her, vvith which to purchase the wished-for mantle, .was a sum that' h^d been appro^ priated; to a younger sister, ttiat slie might take-lessons in drawing, an art of which she was \pas3ionately fpnd;'and for w;hich she had a.decided genius, ShepCptild not forbear hinting to. Caroline that the time might come when the taltjnts of-her sister would be.piit in reqiiigitipn; for more, iin- pprtaht purposes, than those of mere a- mtiseraeni;, but her'persuasions were lost upon the mind of the. thoughtless and self¬ ish girl, and she saw her depart, with pain, toft}l;fii.her intention.;    .   ;        .   ,
Mrs. Hinton found no difficulty in re¬ turning the mantle, and, after she had left the store sire wondered liow she could have b^een so foolish as to suffer a mo-r ment's uneasiness on. such a trifling sub. ject. The words of BIr. Norton had: made a deep inip-essiou upon her, and as .'she looked at the multitude of poor, houseless wretches, who throng Broadway, begging for charily, she felt how sinful it was to waste in e.xtravagance that \vhich would brifagcomftJrt and happiness to' .so many sorrowfiil hearts. jWlieii her husband re-- turiiedtodi.nner, she, like a true-hearted wifS, .made a confession to him of her fol¬ ly o,fth$:day.before, hei-repeiitance, and the purpose for which she had just-visited Stewart's; Mr. Hinton was a mtin of sense and iritelligebce. He had often" dpplored, his wife's foudnessfor display, but she; was' so young when he married her andhad been so petted from her childhood by a fond mother, and was withal so lovely and interesting, that he could not find it in his heart to deny her any gratification, trust¬ ing that as she grow older her taste woiild change. He did not know that the passion for dress is one which increases with in¬ dulgence, like all other bad habits, and is the hardest to overcome in the female heart, particularly, as was-.lho case wilh Mrs. Hinton, where there are no children to occupy the time and attention. So de¬ lighted was he with the ingenuousness of her confession, that he presented hefcjvith a suih of money for charitable pufpSses, telling her that he had that day unfxpect- edly recovered a bad debt which'kc* had long since despaired of, and conscqiiently no longer entertained the fears whicli he had mentioned to her in the morning"..-
Let us return to Mr. Norton. Ho: could not avoid anticipating the calling hour a little, so impatient was he to meet again the object that had so much fascinated him the night before. As ho entered the hall; he heard the sound of music, and being shown info the drawing-room, found the fair Emily evidently giving lessons on the piano to a little sister. Although attired in a simple morning dress, sho did not ap¬ pear less lovely than his memory had pic¬ tured, and the bright blush which his un¬ expected appearance called up, made her not less interestingin his eyes. She dis¬ missed Ihe little girl with a message to her mother, who soon received him kindly. As he glanced round and observed the air of elegarice though not display, that per- vadqjj thij establishment, he could not help recalling Miss Howard's Svords about the old cloak,'and his"ciiribsity wos excited to -know what could be her reason.for wear¬ ing a garinent unfashionable enough^ to attract observation. After inaking as long a call as he dared, upon first acquaintance ho took leave, not without being invited by Mrs. Hardwood to call again; an invita¬ tion to which he cordially responded.'
Not many days after as Mr. Norton-Jvas walking in Broadway, he met Miss Hard¬ wood, and joined her immediately. He was walking for some time by her side without at all regarding her dress, when iJyiiss La Blode suddenly emerged froma shop, and passed on before them, arrayed in her superb velvet clock, with feathers, fcc, in the height of fashion. The con¬ versation at the party instantly recurred to his thoughts, and he glanced at the cloak ofhis companion. It was of plain dark merino, and had evidently been much .worn, though every thing about her was so scrupulously neat and her sirhple white hat so becomiiig to her fresh, complexion that she was infinitely more attractive to an intelligent man, than the dashing Miss La Mode. To test herfeelings, he reihark- ed carelessly, 'That is a beautiful cloak of Miss La Mode's.'" No blush appear'cd o" her cheek, as she quietly replied. 'It is ¦indeed very beautiful." Mr. Norton" could not holif seeing how' superior was her con¬ duct to that of iorne young ladies, who be¬ tray an uneasy feeling of consciotisness when they hear praise of another's appear¬ ance, which theyknowtobe more brilliant than their own: He continued to visit at Mjpi. -Hardwood's, and was always kindly reaeived; but he'was not one to decide too hastily on a subject of such vast impbrtr ance,"as he felt the character bf his com¬ panion for life to be.-    '"-.-¦..    -'..
It .chanced, atlengtb, that he had a commissioh from an aunt Ir! the couniry, for some .,milinery,''and although entirely unused to make .such pur(:Jiase?,^he resort¬ ed to the most, fashionable establishmerit ofthe kind, fbr the first lime, to cxercis'e his taste in that department..' The miliner tobk him behind a cuilain which separated the two rooms, in. order to show him some yet-y rech.OTcbe 'articles, and requesting iiinj.tp take iiseat tipon a sofa, left him to; search for the. ipiportant box which ..con¬ tained the treasurbs;: H© was .'beginning to. grow jmpatieiit,~whi:n. a sweet, well kho.lvn voice sent ^ thrilltbrotiglihishe'art.- •I t was-Emily HSrdwood's vpice apparently o'onversiiig with anotlier yotirig lady, sb f"close to the curtaiti-that,6e;could-ndtav.t)i[i: hearing every.wbrd.

Helen made the required promise, and Emilypi-occe'ded: -
'¦Yoti remetnber hearing the doalh of niy uncle'Murray, last siirnnier.- He had [.failed just before, so thathis-fSnaily were left, quite destitute. .Catharine, the eldest daughter, has beenatMr.s^JIlarB's-school for the last year, and she was very de.sir- 6us of remaining.anothe'r term, after which Mrs.'\Villard would engage herasa teacher. She considers herxine of her finest'schol-- ars. But it was not possible for hBi- niofher to cpntintj'e snchan expense, and my falher said that he cp.uld npt offer to do it unless we would make some retrenchment in our domestic' affairs. Th^fpre: I offered to wear my. cloak another season, and to .give|littlo Julia mtisic lessons, Jnstoad of her having a teacher. Noiy do you not think that a sufficient motive 1 I assure you I have feltniore pleasure, lliis:winter, inweaving that old cloak, than I should have done iia possessing one even more splendid than Miss La Mode's, for my poor cousin will be able to support herself and assist her mother in educating her brothers and sisters.'
'Tbatisjust like yourself, Emily,' ex¬ claimed her friend, enthusiastically. 'I only wish I could tell of it. How ashatiiod Caroline Howard would be of all her ill- natured speeches 1'
It is needle'ss to say that there was an¬ other auditor who shared in the admiration of Helen. BIr. Norton was so delighted with the simple recital of Emily, that he longed to clasp her to his heart, and tell her that his happiness depended on her alone. Ho saw the young ladies take their departure, and a few moments after hasteneti away, forgetting his aunt and all her commissions, and.leaving the railiDer lostin astonishment atliiis abrupt departure, lie reached.BIr. Hard^vood's .'almost as soon as Emilyier.'-elf, aW|l astonished her by a warm declaration ophis feelings. She did not bid him despair, and it was soon after announced that B'lr. Norton and Emily Hardwood were-engaged, much.to the as-1 tonishment of Miss La Blode and Caroline Howard, who could not understand why she was preferred to themselves.
Mrs. Hiuton wasdellghted with Mr. Nor¬ ton's choice and predicted that he would have a pattern wife. She never forgot her good resolutions, bul her persuasions were lost upon her former friend, Caroline, who WEis however, soon forced, by the failure ofherfather, to renounce her extravagant habits..    ¦
We must do Mr. Norton the justice to say'that hehad the caiidor to confess to his wife, soon after their marriage, the means by which he obtained a knowledge of her motives for Wearing the old cloak, which, was ever after preserved as a pre- ciotis relic. I'canassure ,my readei's that she did not blame him severely, andshould this tale ever meet their eyes, I trust that they will both pardori tlie use I have made
ofthe incidents related to me.

He of¬ fered himself aiid soon the young man and the wid¬ ow were united in the bands of matrimony; so thai in consequence of these two connections a lather became the sdn-in-liw, of bia oWn son, and the wife not only the dau^htcr-in-law of her own son-in-law, but still more tbe mother-in-law of her own mother, who is herself the . daughter-in-law of her own daughter, while the husband bfthe lalteristhe falher-in-lawof bis inother-in-law, and father-in-law of his own'father;' Singular confusion may ariseif children should spruigfrom these peculiar marriages.

A Happy Old Farmer.
The following.drawnby an old farmer,eighty years of age, is one of tbe best sketches of human hap¬ piness we haye ever read. We bespeak for it an attentive porusai, as it shows how easy it is for man to find contentment if he would but seek il in the only way where it is to be found:— „. " I have lived on this farm mure than half a cen¬ tury. I have no desire to change my residence as long as I live on earth. I have no desire to he richer than I am now;- I have worshipped the God of my fathers for more thau forty years. During that period I bavescarcely ever heen absent from the sanctuary on the Sa'"bath, and never have more than one communion season. I have never licen confined to my bed of sickness a single day.— The blessings of God have been richly spread around mc, and I have made up my mind long agO) that if I wished to be happier, / must have more i e- ligion.
We understand thai Daniel Ullman, Esq,, of New Yo-'k has purchased the Phillipsburg eslaie, lying in Centre, Clearfield, and Cambria counties, in this State. ¦¦        .
. We learn that this splendid property contains up¬ wards of seventy thousand acres of fertile land, abounding in bitumious coal and iron ore, and has upon it several valuable furnaces, forgra, factories, ti)ills,-&c. '
Mr. Ullmaawill be a valuable acquisition to that community; uniting as he docs a mind richly stored wilh sound learning to industrious habits and spot¬ less morals, .-    -
