'Mary, my dear,' said Charles Halwood to his wife, 'come set by me, while I read this beau¬ tiful piece in your magazine this week.'
'Is it something very interesting?' said Mrs. Halwood.
'Oh! very, indeed; it is written by. our new authoress, Alice Carlisle, of whom every one is speaking in such high terms. I wonder who she can be.' No one knows, and she seems de¬ termined to keep herself in security.'
'Perhaps she has special reasons for so doing, said Mrs. Halwood.
'I suppose she has,' replied her husband, 'but I should think one of her brilliant talents, and one, too, who receives so much applause from the public in general, would be proud to make herself known. But I will read to you her pro¬ duction in this number.'
... . *
During the first year oC Mt. Halwood's mar¬ riage life he had lived very happily; but when the novelty had worn off, and he saw his wife from day to-day wearing the same quiet smile, and preserving the same modesty of demeanor, lie began to feel a sort ot cnmti when in her so¬ ciety. Instead of trying to throw off that kind of restraint felt by both, by spending his leisure moments with his wife, studying her character of mind, he devoted the most of them to reading the various periodicals of the day with which his table vpas loaded. He had become very much interested, of late, with a new authoress who had suddenly made het appearance in the literary world, under the name of Alice Carlisle, and who had become very popular in the public prints, but still keep her name incog.
When Halwood had finished reading, he ex¬ claimed, 'Is not that beautiful ? How pure and elevated the thought .' Do you not think she is a fine writer, Mary ?'
'Why, yes, pretty good,' replied Mrs. HaWood, with seeming indifference, and turning away, busied herself with a book before her.
Halwood felt disappointed and pained j he sat for B few moments humming a short tune ; and throwing down the hook arose and wended his way to his oiBce. 'How stupid,' he muttered' as he walked along, 'not to see the beauiy of such a production as that. Oh ! that Alice Car¬ lisle was my wife ! Then I could be a happy man—then there would be a congeniality of thought and feeling.'
He entered his office, but his thoughls were not there. He tried to dissipate his feelings, by looking over and arranging his papers : but stil' his mind would wander upon tho fair authoress, and then he would compare what his imagination pictured her to be, with his wife, and he felt more dissatisfied than ever. Ha made every enquiry and took every measure that prudence would admit to ascertain who she was, but all to no purpose.
Time wore on, but brought no relief to the mind of Charles Halwood. Since that dny of which we have spoken, he had never mentioned Alice Carlisle to his wife, or spoke of her writings, but he had eagerly devoured every ar¬ ticle of hers Ihat appeared. Hc spent but little tirae at home, and appeared reservctl and silent in his wife's presence*
At length he broke through all restraint and resolved to address her by her ficlitious name through the medium of the post ofiico. Accord¬ ingly he penned a shorl note speaking in very high terms of her lalents as a wriler, expressing a strong desire to become acquainted wilh her, and ending by begging her to grant him an in¬ terview. He dropped his note in the post office, and anxiously awaited a reply ; uor did lie wail long, for ho soon received the following note.
'Mr. Halwood :—Dear Sir : I received yonr note of this morn, and am very graleful for the complimentary manner in which you have spo'ken of my writings. As you earneslly request an in¬ terview, if you will at seven  o'clock  this   eve,
walk in M street, you will meet a lady in
a Quaker garb, turn aod walk with hor, and you will have the pleasure of conversing \vith Alice Carlisle.'
When Halwood had read the note, hc laid it on tho table and for a moment his better judgment told him that he had already proceeded too far in this affair, and conscience whispered, 'Better sit wilh your wife this eve, whom you have sworn to protect.' But he did not list to the voice of conscience : an opportunity offered to gratify hii desire, and he resolved, to improve it. He had taken the first step fron-i tha path of rec¬ titude ,and it was easier going forward than baek- ward.
Evening at length came, and Halwood waited with impatience for the hcrur to arrive for him to go fonh to meet the Quakeress, for such he believed het to be. Ho had spent his evenings, of laie, at ihe office, ani'i being wholly unacquaint¬ ed wilh the inhabitants of the street chosen for their meeting, he feU no foar of being recogniz¬ ed by any one during the interview, or that it would not be known to his wife. He wrapped himself in his cloak, and drawing his Ijat closely over his forehead, proceeded with'.hsBly steps to¬ ivards M street.   It  was dimly  lighted,
and there heing none^ut dwelling houses in il, there were but few passing back and forlh.    He had walked up and down the streel a few times • still no one appeared thai he could recognize as the object of his search, and he began to  think he was the object of some trick, when suddenly turning around, he observed a figure before him, wearing the close Quaker bonnet and cloak. He approached her, and was  somewhat  surprised that she immediately recognized him, allhough she was an entire stranger to himself.   He join¬ ed her in her walk and enlered into conversation. He frankly confessed to her  his situation  in life—having told her of the unhappiness he ex¬ perienced from having a companion who was not possessed ot a mind congenial with his own, then spoke in glowing terms of the beauties of her productions, upon which he had so long dwelt, and bitterly lamented that he had not found sueh an one -with whom to spend his days. The lady seemed somewhat agitated, and rather silent at first, and appeared inclined to keep her face hidden in her hat, so as  nol to  give  Hal¬ wood a view oE it.    After some hesitation, she told him that she loved him in secret—that he possessed tho warmest affections ot her heart- that era he led his bride   lo  the  altar, she had looked upon him as the  being above  all oihers with whom she wished to be united—and that it was love of him alone that made her what she was, a writer.    Halwood lisiened lo her  with Tiroathless silence ; busy thoughts tan over the Ttssociations of his former years, but among  all his acquaintances he conld select none to whoitJ he could apply tho character of the lady before him.   He caught sight of her face as they pass¬ ed a street lamp.    There was a strikingly famil¬ iar look in it, but he could recollect none possess- td ot to iuach iwcBtoeis (nd beauty.   Ttae, 1
he had only a hasty glance, yet in that one look, he thought he discovered marks of a noble mind. He found the object for whicii he had so oflen sighed, and resolved to secure it while within his grasp. He proposed that ahe should leave the cily wilh him—go to a distant city—there be¬ come his wife, and then sail to a foreign land where they could dwell together in obscurity, and enjoy each other's socieiy undisturbed.
AI first she appeared shocked at such a propo¬ sal, and spoke of his wife, whom he would leave behind him broken hearted ; also the disgrace with which he would bo looked upon by the world at large. But Halwood waa eloquent in overcoming every obstacle she oould present; if he remained as he was he must be miserable, and said his wife could not-be more unhappy to leave her forever, than to feel daily that although he acted tho part ot a husband, his heart was far from her. He finally succeeded in gaining her consent to his proposals, on condition that she should not reveal her true narae unlil they should arrive at the first stopping place. Halwood promised to grant any request, if she should ac¬ cede to his wish.    She at length agreed to meet
him at the steamboat landing in W^ St., one
one week from that night, and  take  the night
boat for P , during  which time, to insnre
secrecy, Ihey were to havo no communication whatever. Having made all necessary arrange¬ ments, they parted—Halwood lo his oflice, and Alice 10 her home.
During the following week, Halwood busied himself in arranging his affairs, which were in a very good condition. He withdrew his money from the bank, and made a wriling and placed it among his papers, should he nol relurn, in which he gave his wife all the property he left behind, which was sufficient to give her a hand¬ some support. He lold Mrs. Halwood and his acquaintances, that his business called him to a dislant city, and that he would be under the ne¬ cessity of remaining for a few months at least, and requested his wife to arrange his wardrobe accordingly.
The important evening came round. The time had been shorter to Halwood than he anti- ticipated. Having all things in readiness, he took a hasty leave of his wife, sprang in his car¬ riage at the door and soon found himself at the steamboat landing. His fair companion had not yet made'her appearance. It was now 8 o'clock in the evening—half an hour and the boat would start. He waited twenly minutes between hope and fear, when a cab stopped near where he was sianding, and from it issued the little Quaker¬ ess, dressed in the same neat, plain slyle, close¬ ly veiled. • Halwood stepped forward, gave her a cordial greeting and conducted her on board to the ladies' cabin. She then requested him to leave her until they should arrive at their des¬ tined port; he reluotanlly did so as he had prom¬ ised logrant all requests she should make.
Halwood retired lo his slale room, but not to resl. Now that he was left to himself, and had time for reflection, he found that allhough his wishes were in some degree gratified, he was far from being happy. He tried to close his eyes in sleep, but a calm, quiet face would stand by his side, and look upon hitn with entreating sadness. It was that of his wife, whom he pic¬ tured at home, lone and sad. He Ihought of the kindness with which she had always supplied his wants—thc solicitude which she seemed to feel in all that concerned him, and more than once lie wished himself by her side to ask her forgiveness. He tried, however, to dissipate such thoughts and feelings, by thinking upon Alice Carlisle, who was now to reveal herself to him on the morrow ; and the hours seemed like 30 many weeks—such was the anxious state of his mind.
Morn at lengih came, and ils first ray of light was a welcome visitor lo the sleepless eyes of Charles Halwood.    He rose, and went on deck.
The tall spires of  the city of P were just in
sight; and when the sun had risen above the horizon, they had neared the wharf; Halwood sought-Alice, and, taking a carriage, drove to the^City Hotel. Now they were alone, and the 4tfyfe had arrived when he was to behold the ob¬ ject he had so long wished for.
Halwood stood in breathless anxiety; he long¬ ed and yet feared to see her unveil herself. She slowly raised her hands, loosetHier bonnet and cloak, togelher with some smoo*ly-combed hair, threw from her—and, kind reader. Ids own wife stood hefore him ! Halwood was thunderstruck. Ho stood for a moment paralyzed. During this one moment, the past, as quick as lightning pass¬ ed Ihrough his mind ; everything was explained, and he rushed forward exclaiming ' Forgive ! oh, forgive!' Ahd—bul we will leave them to themselves, and just say that the nexl boal took Halwood to his home, a wiser man.
Curious Particulars in Relation to Mar¬ riage.-;-The intervention of a priest or rather ecclesiastical functionary was not deemed indis¬ pensable to a marriage, until the council of Trent in 1409. The celebrated decree passed in that session, interdicted any marriage other¬ wise than in the presence of the priest and of at least two witnesses. But before the time of Pope Innocent III., (U18,) there was no solemniza¬ tion ot marriage in the church, but the bride¬ groom came to the bride's house, and led hor home to his own, which was all the ceremony then used. Bans were first directed to be pub¬ lished by Canon Wallerjnthe year 1300.
A Troublesome Congregation.—One Sun¬ day, when the minister of Udney entered the kirk, he was no less surprised than indignant to find that daft "Jamie Fleming," had laken pos¬ session of the pulpit. "Come doon, Jamie," said his reverence "Come ye up, sir," answered Jamie they're a sniffnecket and rebellious gene¬ ration, an' will lack us bolh to manage them.— [Liverpool Standard.]

A moment sweet,—tho' far aw:iy.

And when the balmy breath of May,
I'nns thy sweot and placid brow ; Then—All then ! 1 fain would stray
With thee, fair maid, where wild flowers grow !
What ecstasy my heart would fill, if wc but one short hour could spend.
Beside some little laughing rill, And once again our voices blend!
I'd o'er forget that earth hath wo !¦
I'd live that-hour in bliss divine ! I'd share of joys that lovers know !     ;

IiCttcr to Country Girls.
[Mrs. Swisshclm, in a late number of the Sat¬ urday Visiter, has the following letter to coun¬ try girls.    She talks "right out." to them.]
You know I said that I could quilt alraost as fast as two of you.    The reason is, I take care of my hands.    One half of you are too proud to do this.    You would not be caught putting a glove on to sweep, or hoe, or weed  in the gar¬ den, because you think it would look as if you wanted to be fine ladies.   Tf you see   any one taking caro of her hands or careful to wear a sun-bonnet to preserve her complexion, you say she is " proud and stuck up."    But it is you who are proud—too proud to think you require any care to look nice.    You have an idea you look well enough at any rate.    So you just  make yourself as rough and coarse  as   ever you ean, by way of being independent.    Your hands grow as stiff and hard as if you held a pio w and swung a scythe, and when you take a needle you can scarcely feel it in your fingers.    This is wrong. There are many things which women ought to do, which require their hands to be soft and pli¬ able, and thcy should be careful to keep them so, in order to make  them useful.    Every wo¬ man who lives in the country should knit herself a pair ot woolen gloves, with long fingers closed at the tops—no mits, to let the fingers get hard. There should be a piece ot ribbed work at the wrist to mako them stay  on.
When you use  your hoe, rake or broom, put on your gloves-when you take hold of a skillet, pot or kettle handle, take a doth to keep your hands from being seared and hardened.    When you wash clothes or dishes, do  not havo water so hot as to feel unpleasant.   Many girls scald their hands until they can put them into water alraost boiling.    Such hands are unfit to use a needle or a pin.    They are not so good to hold a baby or dress a wound.    Take care of your hands, and do not foiget  your  faces.    I have seen so many country girls who, at sixteen, had complexions like alabaster, and at twenty-six their faces would look like a runnet bag that had hung six weeks in the  chimney corner.    One reason of this is, they do not wear a bonnet to protect them from the sun.    Another reason is, tho habit they have of baking their faces before a wood fire.   I have seen women stand before a great roasting fire and  cook, until I  thought their brains wete as well  stewed as the chick¬ ens ; and they would get so nsed to it they would make no attempt to shield their heads from the heat.    Nay, they would sit down in the evening and bake their faces by the hour ; and this is one of the reasons why American women grow old, withered and wrinkled, fifteen years before tbeii time.

THIS Ja a SAFETY BRIDLE BIT inventea and Bccured by Mr. Hr-vav Sr.nz,. of Marietta. Tn. - Thifl Bit ia expected to supersede evi-ntnally :in othen", either for riding or driving, corahining, an it doets, the common iimiffle. flOarranged with the pulley, a.i togive any person perfect power over the inost viciousor fritrht- eiied horse. It obviate.i the objections made to the se¬ vere Bits now in use, whieh from their painful action, often nuiko u spirited borso rear, kick and try to run ilway. This Bit is pleasant in its action ou thc mouth,- cansing no p.iin whatever, and hixn tho requisite powur wiien vranted—ny borse baving been fouud able to re-^int it.    The operation is ,'is foUow.s :
Tho rein is ho<.ked firmly to the saddle at A. par'-^ing tlirough the loop C, into tiio Itit<iver the roller at B,and securing it fjL'-t to the ring D. which prevents it from drawing back and form.i the check rein now in use, and to which the driviug rein>f are buckled aud pass back to thc driver.
For horseback, the loops and^ioga are dispen.<icd with, the rein being continuous, forming two reins one of which id thrown over tho saddle horn or strapped to tbo pummel, aud tbe othtfr to the rider's hand—both rein.s cin pass through the ring,'? of a martingal. For Ladie.s it ifl particularly recommended on account of its safety and power, -j^ n. horse is by no means able to throw hi.-i head sufficiently low tb kick.
For double h:irnes6 the rein.? sbould pass from the Isfc horse over to the bit of the 2nd, through the bit and back to tbe saddle piece a,t U, of the Ist horse—platting tho rein.s as they cross each other between the hor-fcri.

MOORE'S PATENT GRAIN DRILL.
THIS most valuable implement of husbandry, wiiich lias been most thorouglily tested, is being used for planting Whi-at, Rye, Corn, Oats, Barley, Be.ans, kc and is so constructed aa to drop any quantity per [.acre, and at any depth rwiuircd. It operates equally well on all kinds ofLand, and is not injured by coming in con¬ tact with rocks, roots, &c., and for usefulness, durability, simplicity, speed, ease and economy, is unequalled by any other Agricultural implement now in usc, aa can be seen by the Testimonials of many ofthe best Farmers in the State. It would be almost needles.s to relate the ad¬ vantages of Drilling, over broadcast sowing, when near¬ ly every Farmer must be alive to tho subject, as many e.\perienccd men havo proved so often that at Ica.tt 20 per cent more grain can be grown after the Drill, with one-fourth less seed, tban alter ¦l>roadca8t sowing.
These Drills have been extensively used in Lancaster, Chester, Bucks. Berks and Adams counties, besides many other counties bf this Stato; also in thc States of Ohio. Delaware and Illinois,
The superiority of this Drill may be judged from the following Testimonials:

This is to certify that we, the undersigned, have- u.'iod Lewis Moor's improved Grain Drill, and wc believe that for durability, strength, cheapness, ease, speed and reg¬ ularity of sowing, that it far surpasses any thing of the kind heretofore in uso amongst ug, and wo do recom¬ mend it to Farmers as boing a macbine tbe best adapted to their wants."
