' Tell me, Charley, who is that fascinaiing creature in blue that waltzes so divinely V ask¬ ed young Fiank Belmont of bi3 friend Charlea Hastings, as they stood * playing wall-flowor ' for lho moment at a military hall- ' Julia Healhcoto,' answered Charles, wilh a lialf sigh, an old flame of mine. I proposed, but she refused mc' * On what ground P 'Simply because I Iiad a comfortablo income. Her head is fnll of romaniic notions, and she dreams of notliing but lovo in a cottage. She contends tiiat poverty is essential to happiness —nnd money its bane-' ' Havc you given up all hopes of her T' 'Entirely—in fact, I'm engaged.' < Tiien you have no objections to my address¬ ing this dear, romantic angel 7* ' Nono whateyer. But I see my ffaneee—ex¬ cuse me—I must walk throKgh the next quad¬ rille with her.' Frank Belmont was a atranger in Boston—a New Yorker—immensely rich and fashionable, lint llis reputation had not preceded him, and Charley Hastings was tho only man who knew him in New England. He procured an intro¬ duction to the beauiy from one of the mana¬ gers, and soon danced and talked himself into lier good graces. In fact, it was a clear case of Jove at flrst sight on both sides. The enamored pair were sitting apart, enjoy¬ ing a most delightful tete a tete. Suddenly Bel¬ mont heaved a deep sigh. * Why do you sigh, Mr. Belmont ?' asked the fair Julia, somewhat pleased with this proof of sensibility. «Is not this a gay scene 7' ' Alas ! yes,' replied Belmont, gloomily; * but fate does not permit me to minglo habitually in scenes like this. They only make my ordinary life double gloomy—and even hero I seem to see the shadow of a fiend waving me away-— What right have I to be hero 7' ' What fiend do you allude to ?' said Miss Heathcote, with increasing interest. * A fiend hardly presentable in good society,' replied Belmont, bitterly. * One could tolerate a Mephistopheles—a dignified fiend, with his pocket full of money—but my tormentor, if per¬ sonified, would appear with seedy boots, and a shocking bad hat.' 'How absurd !' 'It is too true,' sighed Belmont, * and the name of this fiend is Poverty." ' Are you poor V 'Yes, madam. I am poor, and whon I would fain rendennysclf agreeable in theeyesof beau¬ ty—in the eyes of one I could love, this fiend whispers nu*,' beware, you have noihing to of¬ fer licr but love in a cottage.'' 'Mr. Belmont,' said JuUa,with sparkling eyes, and a voice of unusual animation,' altho* there, arc sordid souU in ikis world, who only judgo of the merits of an individual by his pecuniary possessions, I am not ore of that number. I respect poverty; there is something highly poetical about it, and I imagine that happiness is oftener found in the humble cottage than be¬ neath the palace roof.' Belmont appeared exchanted with this en¬ couraging avowal. The next day, after cau¬ tioning his friend Charley to say nothing of his actual circumstances, he called on the widow Belmont and her fair daughter iu tbe characier of the ' poor gentleman.' The widow had very dillerent notions from her romantic oflspring, and when Belmont candidly confessed his pov¬ erty when rcfjuesting permission to address Julia, hewas very politely requested to change lhe subject and never mention it again. Thc result of ail this manceuvering was an elopemont, the bell of the ball jumped out of a chamber on a shed, and coming down a flight of steps to reach her lover, for the sake ot being romantic, when sbe niight just as well have walked out of the front door. Tlie happy couplo passed aday in New York city, and then Frank took his beloved to hie ' cottage.' An Irish liack conveyed lhem lo a miserable .shanty in tho environs of Now York, where tliey aiightsd, and Frank, escorting tho bride into tho apartment which served for parlor, kitcheu and drawing-room, and was neither papered nor carpeted, introduced her to his mother, much in the way Claude Melnotte presents Paulino. Tho old woman, who was pealing potatoes, hastily whiped her hands and face with a greasy apron, and saluted her ' dar¬ ter,' as shc called her, on both cheeks. ' Can it be possible,' thought Julia,' that this vulgar creature is my Belmont's molher 7' * Frank !' screamed the old woman,'you'd belter go right up siairs and take off them clothes —for the boy's been sent arler 'em more'n fifty times. Frank borried them cloihes, ma'am she added to Jnlia, by way of explanation, ' t look smart when he went down east.' The bridegroom retired on this hint, and soon re*appeared in a pair of faded nankeen panta¬ loons, reaching to about the calf of the leg, a very shabby black coat, out at the elbows, a ragged black vest, and insiead of bis varnished leather boots, a pair of immense cowhide bro- gans. * Now,' said be, sitting quietly down by the cooking stove. * I begin to feel at home. Ah ' this is dylighiful, isn't it, dearest?' and he warbled : ' Thoufih never bo bumble, there's no placo like home.' Julia's heart swelled so that she could not ut¬ ter a word. ' Dearest,' said Frank, * I think you told rae you bad no objection to smoking 7 * ' None in lhe least,' aaid the bride, ' I rather like the flavor of a cigar.' ' O, a cigar !' replied Belmont, ' that would never do for a poor man.' And, O, horror! he produced an old clay pipe, and filling it from a liitlo newspaper par- col of tobacco, began to smoke with a keen rel¬ ish. ' Dinner ! Dinner !' ho exclaimed at length ' ah ! Ihank you, molher, I'm as hungry as a bear. Codfish and poiaioes, Julia—not very templing fare—but what of that! our ailment is love! ' ' Yes—und by way of treat,' added the old woman, ' I've been and gone and brought a wholo pint of Albany ale, and three cream- cakes from the candy ahop next block.' Poor Julia pleaded indisposition, and could not eat a mouthful. Before Belmont, bowever, the codfish and potatoes and the ala and cream- cakes disappeared witha very unromantic and ' unlover-like velocity. At the close of the meal, a thundering doublo knock was heard at lhe door. i * Como in I * cried Belmont. A low-browed man, in a green wa'Stcoat, en¬ tered. •Now, Misther Belmont,' he exclaimed, in a strong Hibernian accent, * are yo ready to go to work 7 By the powers ! if I don't aee yez sail¬ ed to-morrow on the shop-board, I'll discharge ye without a character—and yo shall starve on lho top of that.' ' To-morrow raorning, Mr. Maloney,' replied Belmont, meekly,' I'll be at my post.* 'And it'll be mighty healthy for you to do the same,' as ho retired. 'Belmont—speak—tell ma—'gasped Juha, * who is lliat man—that loafer 7 ' ' Ho 13 my employer,' answered Belmont, smiling. ¦ * And his piofesBion 7 » * He 15 a tailor.' • And you \' e Am a journeyman tailor at your service—a laborious and thankless callirtg it ever was to me—but now dearest, as 1 drive the hissing goose across tho smoking seam, I shall think of my own angel and my dear cottage, and be happy/ • That nighc Julia returned weeping to h«i room in the attic* ^Thtt'ere coimterpin, darter,'«»d theold .woman, <"I worked with these here old handa. Aint it patty 7 I hope you'll ileep well hero. There's a broken pane of gl&as, hut I.ve put oneof Frank's old b»t« init^and I don't think you'U feel the draught. There nsed to be a good many rats here, but I don't think they'll trouble you now, for Frank's been a piiinui' of 'em.* Left alone, Julia threw herself into a chair, and burst into a flood of tears. Even Belmont bad ceased to bo attraotive , in her oyes-^tho stern privations that surrounded her banished all thoughts of love. The realities of life had cured her in one day of all her Quixotte no¬ tions. 'Well, Julia, how do you like poverty and love in a cottage 7' asked Belmont, entering in his bridal dress. * Not so well, sir, as you soem to hko that borrowed suit,* answered tho bride reddening wilh vexation. ' Very well, you shall sufi'er it no longer. My carriage awaits your orders at the door.' * Your carriage, indeed !' ' Yes, dearest, it waits but for you, to bear us lo Belmont Hall, my lovely villa on the Hud¬ son.' * And your mother 7 ' 'Ihave no mother, (alas!) The old woman down stairs is an old aervant of the family.* ' Then you've becn deceiving mo, Frank— how wicked!' 'Itwas all done wiih agood motive. You w«re not born to endure a life of privation, but to shine th« ornament of an elegant and refined circle. I hope you will not love mo the less when you learn that I am worth nearly halfa million—that's tfao melancholy fact, and I can't help it.' ' Frank I' cried the beautiful girl, and hid her face in his bosom. She presided with grace at the elegant festi¬ vities of Belmont HaH, ani seemed to support her husband's wealth and luxurious style of living with the greatest fortitude and resigna* tion never complaining of her comforts, nor murmuring a wish for living in a cottage. TEMPEE. THE DESPOTS OF DOMESTIC LIFE. ' Ofall had thinga by which mankind are onra'd, Their own bad tempers surely are the worst.' Cciibeeland's Mtnandcr. of misery, of slavery-i^bj^ the iron despotism of their eyil-tempexed husbands. Atthtsmoment —how many families—rich, poor, and in the middle walks of life^are dragging out a wretched existence through the curse of temper —because lheir domestic circle is infioancod and agitaied by some virgo or soma tyriani !— Alas, for the violent, the passionate and the perverse, who cannot or will not control them¬ selves, and who are, thereforo, perpetually en¬ gaged ia the selfish, satanic, and unholy work of creating strife, contention and misery.— Many a gentle hearl has been broken by the tyrant temper of some such domestic despot.— Many an honest and toil-worn raan has boen driven from his home to the resort of the dis¬ solute and iniemperate, by the petulant and complakiing volubility of his miscalled " bet¬ ter halfl" THB BACHGLOR.

' If tho peculiarities of our feelings and fac¬ ulties be the effect of variety of excitement through a diversity of organization, it should tend to produce in us mutual forbearance and toleratiott. We should perceive how nearly impossible it is that persons should feel and think exactly alike upon any subject.' A correspondent expresses the opinion that 'parents and teachers, even when they bestow adequate attention upon the minds and the morals of tha little Beings confided to their care, are apt to be very indifferent as to the proper training of the temper nnd disposition.' And he is right. It often happens that parents, in mistaken aflection or erring judgment, ac¬ tually foster and encourage a vicious, violent, ¦md vindictive temper, and thus sow the seeda of misery, not only for their oflspring, but for ad with whom ihey may become associated.— What, indeed, can be more unpleasant, more painful, than Bharpness and violence, bitterness of manner and of language 7 What so diafig. lires beauty and neulralizes the purer and bet¬ ter elements of our nature? And yet we be¬ lieve that the temper may be educated, re¬ strained and controUed, quite as readily as the mind maybe developed and improved. If the disposition be naturally violent and perverse, so much the more necessity for checks and re¬ straints in childhood. In after-life the evil is incurable. The infirmity becomes a fixed habit, and it ia the constant sourco of irritation, misunderstanding, and feud. The unhappy of temper ara to be pitied—while they are also apt to be avoided. It is dangerous to converse with them, even upon ordinary subjects. Dif¬ fer with lhem, and not satisfied ivith giving lheir own views, they will impugn the motives of thoso who hold opposite sentimenls, resort to unbecoming language, and not unfrequently utter insinuations and employ epithets, totally unsuited to the lips of the juat, the generous, and the gentlemanly. For the moment they are beside themselves. They are the mono¬ maniacs of tho hour. Passion takes the place of reason, prejudice thatof truth, and excite¬ ment that of philosophy. Their violenco of temper obtains iho entiro mastery—ihey be¬ como excited, lost to all senae of propriety, and thus aro objects of commiaeration rather than of anger. This, when their antagonist is calm tiuthful and reasonable; but when, like them¬ selves, he is posessed of an evil temper, the consequences are likely to be more painful.— The insipid, lhe lifeless and the yeilding should by no means be regarded as the -models of mankind. A proper degree of spirit and inde¬ pendence is also absolutely essential to self-res¬ pect. But we may readily express our views, however eccentric or unreasonable, without manifesting violence, either of manner or of langauge, and assuredly wiihout impugning the motives or assailing tho integrity of those wilh whom wo happen to differ. Wo know of nothing more commendable or desirable than calmness, evenness, and courtesy. These qualities, constanlly exercised, are admirably calculated to soften tbe asperities of life, and to impart a charm to the occurrences of every day intercourse. The 'gentler sex,' too, should be especially careful in the cultivation of temper. Woman yeilds up ono of tho loveliest attributes of her nature, when she forgets the quiet, winning way that so endears, and endeavors to main¬ tain her influence and sway through the agen¬ cy of harshness and violence. An evil temper, a proponsiiy to quarrel, a dispostiion to be dis¬ satisfied, a spirit of contradiction, are bad enough in man, but in woman they are terrible. They destroy many of the softer and sweeter illusions wbich we delight to associate with tho female character, they dissipate one of the raost potent of the magic spells which nat¬ urally belong to her gentle sphere. They turn into biitornoss and gall the currents of feeling and of sentiment, that beforo were all harmony devotion and aff'ection. How many a house- bold is made a sccno of perpetual slrifo, by lho curse of an evil temper,posseased and exer¬ cised by one of the loading spirits of the fam ity ! Ail such seem determined to be perverse, and never contented, wben oihers aro calm, tranquil and happy. Thus tboir very presence has the efl'ect of a shadow. It chilla and dark¬ ens all within its influence. Silence and ap¬ prehension lako the placo of cheerfulness and vivacity. Silence, because it is dangerous to speak; and apprehension, because a storm may always ho expected, when tho evil temper is in the ascendant. The greater the efforta at conciliation the worse the success. Affection is repelled as impertinence, and frankness as impudence. Even a look or a smile is denounc¬ ed and rebuked, and tbus even the children un¬ consciously exult, or at least feei relieved of their restraint, when the excitable, the petulent, and the perverse aro among the absentees.— The example of such a temper is most perni- ciom. It impairs the natural ingenuousness of the young, renders thera suspicious, distrustful and hypocritical, and gives them false views of life. They cannot understand the maoy con¬ tradictions and inconsistencies whiob aro con¬ stantly presented to them. They are thus taught to douht and distrust, especially, as is often the case, when the gentler partner, for the sake of harmony,-,, ^p^ ,„„^„ to conceal¬ ment. The truth is withheld, fearful that its utterance will create difiiculty ,_provok6 a storm,—and thus falsehood is indirectly incul- cated. The harsh of temper and the hard of manner are rarely companionable. They make poor friends, anpIuasEmt associates, unenviable hus- bands or wives. Tho destiny that is united with theirs, is subject to constant anxiety, an¬ noyance and pain. One of thei two choices is essential— either passive obedience, and thus a forfeiture of everything like independence and self-respect, or frank opposition, and, thns an open and perpetual war. We believe tbat many men have been driven to ruin by the ir- asoibla spirit of their wives; while many wiresi on the othsr hbnd| have beeu /subjected to lives FACTS AND GOOB SENSE. Trade bt teansfkr.—¦The feather of the ostrich ia more valuable at St. Petersburg or Quebec than at Zanzibar or Mozambique.— The furs of Sibera are soughi with avidity in China, and all the regions of the temperate zone; tho spices and teas of tho East find pur¬ chasers and consumers in all lands ; while silk, and cotton, and wool and iron, either wrought or un wrought, have become essential to, and are desired by, every human being. The ice which binds in chains the upper temperate and frigid zones, when transported to the tropics becomes a luxury, in whioh only the opulent can in¬ dulge. The annals of our race aro not authenticated so far back as the time when there was no trade by caravans between the cities of the Mediter¬ ranean and the territories and counties of Cen¬ tral Africa, India and China. Nor has the time arrived for the abolition of that trade. It still exists. Two caravans arrive at Alexandria, anoually, from Datfour, composed of from four to fivo thousand camels, and from two to three hundred men. They bring down elephants' teeth, rhinoceros' horns, ostrich feathera, gum arable, tamarinds, and usually several thousand female slaves. TRtmS ANb HONOR.

[April 18-3in-20] JOHN AMEK, OUB second graiid exhibition of ew and beantlf^ Spring aend Sammer Qtods ia Piflaarlplilii ^jBUertTsemcntt!. Keep mosey Movina.—Wo are told that jW' litical economy, or iho acienco of wealth, em¬ braces three proceasee :—production, distribu¬ lion, and consumpiion. Of tbese, production fundamental and primary ; for, " if a man work not, neither shall he eat." If noihing is pro¬ duced, there will be noihing to distribute, or consume. But, on the whole, tbe subject of distribution is at once the moat intricate and interesting. It is most pleasant to think about tho good things of earth we are to get for our share; not so pleasant to consider the bard knocks, tbo moil nnd watching wilh which the good things are coaxed and wrested from nature. And for the intricacy of the subject, aro not all these social questions of reform of the evils of society, and their remedy, which aro perplexing naiions ; this problem of tbe cause ofpoverty, which seems to puzzle modern wits as much as the cause of ovil puzzled those of ancient times; are they not all embraced in the one matter of the distribution of wealth. MiN AND Monev.—Men may thrive by mon¬ ey as by means, but not in it, as though man were a plant and money bis proper soil. Man is an inverted tree : the root is upward, the branchea downward. Other trees root in earth and gel nourishment from heaven ; mnn is to root in heaven, and to draw a partial, a tempora¬ ry life from the eartb, until a season ot reversion when not only tbe root shall be fixed in Para¬ dise, but the trunk raise its head, the branches spread, tho leaves unfold, tho bloom develop iiself, the fruit come to perfection, and the wholo tree find soil and climate, light, heat, and dew in lho cloudless sapphire of Paradise —beneath Eden's eternal suns. Enterprise.—Tliere aro few men, sn hope¬ lessly and disadvantageously situated that they cannot rise and succeed in any right and rea¬ sonablo undertaking. But he must bo a man conscious of hia strength and fixedness of pur¬ pose, wbo can say, I will succeed, and will build for myself, in spite of all hinderances, a namo and a fortune. To such a man, the ob¬ stacles over which his energy triumphs only give a zest to his labours ; they whet and ex- hilirate his spirits, and increase bis enjoyment. We remember to have seen, somewhere, an account of a young man who, having fallen heir too a large estate, engaged in a career of profligacy and wasteful expenditures, until ho found himself utterly impoverished nnd desti¬ tute, cast off by his former aasociates, and hav¬ ing no resource to which to look for relief. Hi( misery was so great tbat be reaolved upon self destruction and wandering forth to fiud some suitablo placo for the execution ofhis desperate purpose, found himaelf on an eminence which overlooked the estates that lately belonged to him. He sat down and ihought of his folly- a long time he mused in silence. When he arose a new pnrpose had taken possession of his soul. He said to himself, * those estates shall again be mine,' and ho set about carrying out tho plan he had cogitated in silence. As he passed along, he saw some coal lying before a door, and he asked to bo employed to carry it inio the house. His wish was granted, and after finishing his taik he was master of a shilling. He soon earned another by a similar process, and when hungry he satisfied his cravings in the moat frugal manner. Month after montb, year after year, he pursued his plan, and in process of time achieved his end. Tbese estates once forfeited by his prodigality were regained by decision, energy, concentra¬ tion of purpose upon a single end.

A SKETCH.
' Tell me, Charley, who is that fascinaiing creature in blue that waltzes so divinely V ask¬ ed young Fiank Belmont of bi3 friend Charlea Hastings, as they stood * playing wall-flowor ' for lho moment at a military hall-
' Julia Healhcoto,' answered Charles, wilh a lialf sigh, an old flame of mine. I proposed, but she refused mc'
* On what ground P 'Simply because I Iiad a comfortablo income.
Her head is fnll of romaniic notions, and she dreams of notliing but lovo in a cottage. She contends tiiat poverty is essential to happiness —nnd money its bane-'
' Havc you given up all hopes of her T'
'Entirely—in fact, I'm engaged.'
< Tiien you have no objections to my address¬ ing this dear, romantic angel 7*
' Nono whateyer. But I see my ffaneee—ex¬ cuse me—I must walk throKgh the next quad¬ rille with her.'
Frank Belmont was a atranger in Boston—a New Yorker—immensely rich and fashionable, lint llis reputation had not preceded him, and Charley Hastings was tho only man who knew him in New England. He procured an intro¬ duction to the beauiy from one of the mana¬ gers, and soon danced and talked himself into lier good graces. In fact, it was a clear case of Jove at flrst sight on both sides.
The enamored pair were sitting apart, enjoy¬ ing a most delightful tete a tete. Suddenly Bel¬ mont heaved a deep sigh.
* Why do you sigh, Mr. Belmont ?' asked the fair Julia, somewhat pleased with this proof of sensibility. «Is not this a gay scene 7'
' Alas ! yes,' replied Belmont, gloomily; * but fate does not permit me to minglo habitually in scenes like this. They only make my ordinary life double gloomy—and even hero I seem to see the shadow of a fiend waving me away-— What right have I to be hero 7'
' What fiend do you allude to ?' said Miss Heathcote, with increasing interest.
* A fiend hardly presentable in good society,' replied Belmont, bitterly. * One could tolerate a Mephistopheles—a dignified fiend, with his pocket full of money—but my tormentor, if per¬ sonified, would appear with seedy boots, and a shocking bad hat.'
'How absurd !'
'It is too true,' sighed Belmont, * and the name of this fiend is Poverty." ' Are you poor V
'Yes, madam. I am poor, and whon I would fain rendennysclf agreeable in theeyesof beau¬ ty—in the eyes of one I could love, this fiend whispers nu*,' beware, you have noihing to of¬ fer licr but love in a cottage.''
'Mr. Belmont,' said JuUa,with sparkling eyes, and a voice of unusual animation,' altho* there, arc sordid souU in ikis world, who only judgo of the merits of an individual by his pecuniary possessions, I am not ore of that number. I respect poverty; there is something highly poetical about it, and I imagine that happiness is oftener found in the humble cottage than be¬ neath the palace roof.'
Belmont appeared exchanted with this en¬ couraging avowal. The next day, after cau¬ tioning his friend Charley to say nothing of his actual circumstances, he called on the widow Belmont and her fair daughter iu tbe characier of the ' poor gentleman.' The widow had very dillerent notions from her romantic oflspring, and when Belmont candidly confessed his pov¬ erty when rcfjuesting permission to address Julia, hewas very politely requested to change lhe subject and never mention it again.
Thc result of ail this manceuvering was an elopemont, the bell of the ball jumped out of a chamber on a shed, and coming down a flight of steps to reach her lover, for the sake ot being romantic, when sbe niight just as well have walked out of the front door.
Tlie happy couplo passed aday in New York city, and then Frank took his beloved to hie ' cottage.'
An Irish liack conveyed lhem lo a miserable .shanty in tho environs of Now York, where tliey aiightsd, and Frank, escorting tho bride into tho apartment which served for parlor, kitcheu and drawing-room, and was neither papered nor carpeted, introduced her to his mother, much in the way Claude Melnotte presents Paulino. Tho old woman, who was pealing potatoes, hastily whiped her hands and face with a greasy apron, and saluted her ' dar¬ ter,' as shc called her, on both cheeks.
' Can it be possible,' thought Julia,' that this vulgar creature is my Belmont's molher 7'
* Frank !' screamed the old woman,'you'd belter go right up siairs and take off them clothes —for the boy's been sent arler 'em more'n fifty times. Frank borried them cloihes, ma'am she added to Jnlia, by way of explanation, ' t look smart when he went down east.'
The bridegroom retired on this hint, and soon re*appeared in a pair of faded nankeen panta¬ loons, reaching to about the calf of the leg, a very shabby black coat, out at the elbows, a ragged black vest, and insiead of bis varnished leather boots, a pair of immense cowhide bro- gans.
* Now,' said be, sitting quietly down by the cooking stove. * I begin to feel at home. Ah ' this is dylighiful, isn't it, dearest?' and he warbled : ' Thoufih never bo bumble, there's no placo like
home.'
Julia's heart swelled so that she could not ut¬ ter a word.
' Dearest,' said Frank, * I think you told rae you bad no objection to smoking 7 *
' None in lhe least,' aaid the bride, ' I rather like the flavor of a cigar.'
' O, a cigar !' replied Belmont, ' that would never do for a poor man.'
And, O, horror! he produced an old clay pipe, and filling it from a liitlo newspaper par- col of tobacco, began to smoke with a keen rel¬ ish.
' Dinner ! Dinner !' ho exclaimed at length ' ah ! Ihank you, molher, I'm as hungry as a bear. Codfish and poiaioes, Julia—not very templing fare—but what of that! our ailment is love! '
' Yes—und by way of treat,' added the old woman, ' I've been and gone and brought a wholo pint of Albany ale, and three cream- cakes from the candy ahop next block.'
Poor Julia pleaded indisposition, and could not eat a mouthful. Before Belmont, bowever, the codfish and potatoes and the ala and cream- cakes disappeared witha very unromantic and ' unlover-like velocity. At the close of the meal, a thundering doublo knock was heard at lhe door. i * Como in I * cried Belmont. A low-browed man, in a green wa'Stcoat, en¬ tered.
•Now, Misther Belmont,' he exclaimed, in a strong Hibernian accent, * are yo ready to go to work 7 By the powers ! if I don't aee yez sail¬ ed to-morrow on the shop-board, I'll discharge ye without a character—and yo shall starve on lho top of that.'
' To-morrow raorning, Mr. Maloney,' replied Belmont, meekly,' I'll be at my post.*
'And it'll be mighty healthy for you to do the same,' as ho retired. 'Belmont—speak—tell ma—'gasped Juha,
* who is lliat man—that loafer 7 '
' Ho 13 my employer,' answered Belmont, smiling. ¦ * And his piofesBion 7 »
* He 15 a tailor.'
• And you \' e Am a journeyman tailor at your service—a
laborious and thankless callirtg it ever was to me—but now dearest, as 1 drive the hissing goose across tho smoking seam, I shall think of my own angel and my dear cottage, and be happy/ •
That nighc Julia returned weeping to h«i room in the attic*
^Thtt'ere coimterpin, darter,'«»d theold .woman, <"I worked with these here old handa. Aint it patty 7 I hope you'll ileep well hero. There's a broken pane of gl&as, hut I.ve put oneof Frank's old b»t« init^and I don't think you'U feel the draught. There nsed to be a good many rats here, but I don't think they'll trouble you now, for Frank's been a piiinui' of 'em.*
Left alone, Julia threw herself into a chair, and burst into a flood of tears. Even Belmont bad ceased to bo attraotive , in her oyes-^tho stern privations that surrounded her banished all thoughts of love. The realities of life had cured her in one day of all her Quixotte no¬ tions.
'Well, Julia, how do you like poverty and love in a cottage 7' asked Belmont, entering in his bridal dress.
* Not so well, sir, as you soem to hko that borrowed suit,* answered tho bride reddening wilh vexation.
' Very well, you shall sufi'er it no longer. My carriage awaits your orders at the door.'

She presided with grace at the elegant festi¬ vities of Belmont HaH, ani seemed to support her husband's wealth and luxurious style of living with the greatest fortitude and resigna* tion never complaining of her comforts, nor murmuring a wish for living in a cottage.

of misery, of slavery-i^bj^ the iron despotism of their eyil-tempexed husbands. Atthtsmoment —how many families—rich, poor, and in the middle walks of life^are dragging out a wretched existence through the curse of temper —because lheir domestic circle is infioancod and agitaied by some virgo or soma tyriani !— Alas, for the violent, the passionate and the perverse, who cannot or will not control them¬ selves, and who are, thereforo, perpetually en¬ gaged ia the selfish, satanic, and unholy work of creating strife, contention and misery.— Many a gentle hearl has been broken by the tyrant temper of some such domestic despot.— Many an honest and toil-worn raan has boen driven from his home to the resort of the dis¬ solute and iniemperate, by the petulant and complakiing volubility of his miscalled " bet¬ ter halfl"

' If tho peculiarities of our feelings and fac¬ ulties be the effect of variety of excitement through a diversity of organization, it should tend to produce in us mutual forbearance and toleratiott. We should perceive how nearly impossible it is that persons should feel and think exactly alike upon any subject.'
A correspondent expresses the opinion that 'parents and teachers, even when they bestow adequate attention upon the minds and the morals of tha little Beings confided to their care, are apt to be very indifferent as to the proper training of the temper nnd disposition.' And he is right. It often happens that parents, in mistaken aflection or erring judgment, ac¬ tually foster and encourage a vicious, violent, ¦md vindictive temper, and thus sow the seeda of misery, not only for their oflspring, but for ad with whom ihey may become associated.— What, indeed, can be more unpleasant, more painful, than Bharpness and violence, bitterness of manner and of language 7 What so diafig. lires beauty and neulralizes the purer and bet¬ ter elements of our nature? And yet we be¬ lieve that the temper may be educated, re¬ strained and controUed, quite as readily as the mind maybe developed and improved. If the disposition be naturally violent and perverse, so much the more necessity for checks and re¬ straints in childhood. In after-life the evil is incurable. The infirmity becomes a fixed habit, and it ia the constant sourco of irritation, misunderstanding, and feud. The unhappy of temper ara to be pitied—while they are also apt to be avoided. It is dangerous to converse with them, even upon ordinary subjects. Dif¬ fer with lhem, and not satisfied ivith giving lheir own views, they will impugn the motives of thoso who hold opposite sentimenls, resort to unbecoming language, and not unfrequently utter insinuations and employ epithets, totally unsuited to the lips of the juat, the generous, and the gentlemanly. For the moment they are beside themselves. They are the mono¬ maniacs of tho hour. Passion takes the place of reason, prejudice thatof truth, and excite¬ ment that of philosophy. Their violenco of temper obtains iho entiro mastery—ihey be¬ como excited, lost to all senae of propriety, and thus aro objects of commiaeration rather than of anger. This, when their antagonist is calm tiuthful and reasonable; but when, like them¬ selves, he is posessed of an evil temper, the consequences are likely to be more painful.— The insipid, lhe lifeless and the yeilding should by no means be regarded as the -models of mankind. A proper degree of spirit and inde¬ pendence is also absolutely essential to self-res¬ pect. But we may readily express our views, however eccentric or unreasonable, without manifesting violence, either of manner or of langauge, and assuredly wiihout impugning the motives or assailing tho integrity of those wilh whom wo happen to differ. Wo know of nothing more commendable or desirable than calmness, evenness, and courtesy. These qualities, constanlly exercised, are admirably calculated to soften tbe asperities of life, and to impart a charm to the occurrences of every day intercourse.
The 'gentler sex,' too, should be especially careful in the cultivation of temper. Woman yeilds up ono of tho loveliest attributes of her nature, when she forgets the quiet, winning way that so endears, and endeavors to main¬ tain her influence and sway through the agen¬ cy of harshness and violence. An evil temper, a proponsiiy to quarrel, a dispostiion to be dis¬ satisfied, a spirit of contradiction, are bad enough in man, but in woman they are terrible. They destroy many of the softer and sweeter illusions wbich we delight to associate with tho female character, they dissipate one of the raost potent of the magic spells which nat¬ urally belong to her gentle sphere. They turn into biitornoss and gall the currents of feeling and of sentiment, that beforo were all harmony devotion and aff'ection. How many a house- bold is made a sccno of perpetual slrifo, by lho curse of an evil temper,posseased and exer¬ cised by one of the loading spirits of the fam ity ! Ail such seem determined to be perverse, and never contented, wben oihers aro calm, tranquil and happy. Thus tboir very presence has the efl'ect of a shadow. It chilla and dark¬ ens all within its influence. Silence and ap¬ prehension lako the placo of cheerfulness and vivacity. Silence, because it is dangerous to speak; and apprehension, because a storm may always ho expected, when tho evil temper is in the ascendant. The greater the efforta at conciliation the worse the success. Affection is repelled as impertinence, and frankness as impudence. Even a look or a smile is denounc¬ ed and rebuked, and tbus even the children un¬ consciously exult, or at least feei relieved of their restraint, when the excitable, the petulent, and the perverse aro among the absentees.— The example of such a temper is most perni- ciom. It impairs the natural ingenuousness of the young, renders thera suspicious, distrustful and hypocritical, and gives them false views of life. They cannot understand the maoy con¬ tradictions and inconsistencies whiob aro con¬ stantly presented to them. They are thus taught to douht and distrust, especially, as is often the case, when the gentler partner, for the sake of harmony,-,, ^p^ ,„„^„ to conceal¬ ment. The truth is withheld, fearful that its utterance will create difiiculty ,_provok6 a storm,—and thus falsehood is indirectly incul- cated.
The harsh of temper and the hard of manner are rarely companionable. They make poor friends, anpIuasEmt associates, unenviable hus- bands or wives. Tho destiny that is united with theirs, is subject to constant anxiety, an¬ noyance and pain. One of thei two choices is essential— either passive obedience, and thus a forfeiture of everything like independence and self-respect, or frank opposition, and, thns an open and perpetual war. We believe tbat many men have been driven to ruin by the ir- asoibla spirit of their wives; while many wiresi on the othsr hbnd| have beeu /subjected to lives
FACTS AND GOOB SENSE.
Trade bt teansfkr.—¦The feather of the ostrich ia more valuable at St. Petersburg or Quebec than at Zanzibar or Mozambique.— The furs of Sibera are soughi with avidity in China, and all the regions of the temperate zone; tho spices and teas of tho East find pur¬ chasers and consumers in all lands ; while silk, and cotton, and wool and iron, either wrought or un wrought, have become essential to, and are desired by, every human being. The ice which binds in chains the upper temperate and frigid zones, when transported to the tropics becomes a luxury, in whioh only the opulent can in¬ dulge.
The annals of our race aro not authenticated so far back as the time when there was no trade by caravans between the cities of the Mediter¬ ranean and the territories and counties of Cen¬ tral Africa, India and China. Nor has the time arrived for the abolition of that trade. It still exists. Two caravans arrive at Alexandria, anoually, from Datfour, composed of from four to fivo thousand camels, and from two to three hundred men. They bring down elephants' teeth, rhinoceros' horns, ostrich feathera, gum arable, tamarinds, and usually several thousand female slaves.
