ONLY A DOLLAE.
"Only a dollar, Charlie."
"Only a dollar, ell F" said the young hns- l)aDd, with asmile, asheplaced onsfooton the rang of his wife's chair, while she leaned her elbow on his knee, and watched him open the Bteel clasps of his pooket.book. A solitary note and a few loose pieoes of ailyer were all that presented themselves.
"Lucky enongb, Adeline, that your de¬ mands are so small this noon," said Mr. Hnnt- ley, as he unrolled the crumpled paper, " for I settled a debt of fifty dollars before I eame home in sueh a hurry to see you."
"Say rather to see your dinner,*' answered the pretty wife, as she put np a moutli like a rosebud for a kiss.
"Well, pussy, I guess 'twas a little of both, for yon better believe I was hungry. Here, take this too," and he emptied the silver into the rosy palm. " Won't this do till snpper Ume!"
" Ob, yes ! You see I've nothing in the worid to purchase, but I owe a dollar to that pool' woman who bronght home my muslin vrrapper, and I told her she should have the jnoney to.day for sure and oertain, as Bridget says."
She was a oharming little wife, and the young merchant thonght so, or he would not liave Ungered another half.honr by her side when he knew so well he onght to be at his store. Bnt there was a strange magnetism in the pretty face—in the damty movements of the restless, gracelnl head—in the light talk, tbat reminded one of the humming-bird, as it fluttered over the sweet lips. And all these things held the husband like so many ohains, nntil, at last, with a desperate eflbrt he seized his hat, pressed his lips upon the fair forehead, had hurried away.
" Och, snre, ma'am, they're the most bean¬ tiful strawberries, as big as my thumb and as red aa a rose in Jnne; and, snre, the man's at the door with hia basket piled full of the same."
" Strawberries, Bridget t I had no idea they were ripe so early;" and Mrs. Hnntley hurried to the door. I
It was enough to make anybody's month water to look at them; and iin. Huntley's certainly did, as the man lifted a basket of the lipe, delicious frait, sayiog—
" Seventy-five oents, ma'am, and the flrst of the seaBOD."
"It's i^dreadfnl prioe," mnrmnred the yonng wife, "and then I owe the only dollar I have by nj%to that poor woman. How provo- Jdng I Charley's so fond of strawberry cak., and I oonld make such a beantifnl one ont o' two of those baskets; and what a delightful surprise it wonld be at snpper I Bnt tha' woman; no matter, I'll give her something for having to wait. Bridget, here, run np Btairs and get my pnrse oa tha table."
A moment later, and the bill and silver were ponred into the hard palm of the straw, berry man.
"Yon're not going away, mamma f Please do not go away and leave Willie alone; "— and the sick boy lifted hia arms appealing from the hard pallet on which he lay, while thefeverflush deepened in bis hollow cheeks, and the fever light brightened in his dark eyes.
"Itisonly alittle while, Wili<?, and mam¬ ma will bny some bread and make you a nice pieoe of toast when she comes back; and my hoy shall sit up by tbe fite, and have a cup of warm tea too, and some medioine to make him well again. Mamma's going to get & whole dollar, and she'U spend it every bit for her darling," said the mother, as she leaned fondly over her child, and drew the folds of the old quilt tighter around him.
One kiss, fnll, oh 1 so full of motherly ten¬ demess, and the sick boy lay all alone in that dark destitute room, where the pale spring sunshine looked in coldly ou the aahes that were Bmonldeiing on the hearth.
."Please, ma'am, there's a woman at the door as has come for the dollar, she says yonr. self promised her to-day."
" Goodness, Bridget!" a little shadow of a oloud oamo over the bright forehead of the lady—"1 spent the last cent in the house for these BtrawberrieB, and I oan't leava this caka to see her now, either. Tell her to call again to-morrow; ehe shall oertainly have it, and more too."
"Ooh, Mrs. Hnntley, but you ought to have seen the look ouher faoe, when I told her yon'd not the money to Jay 1 Surely, that puir thing's in thronble of some Hnd, it's plain enough to be seen," said the rather lo- qnaoiouB Bridget to her mistress, when she retumed to the kitchen.
"Oh, dear 1 if I had known; bnt the straw¬ berries an bought, and it oan't b« helped now. I'll make if aU right with her to.morrow, Bridget. And Mrs. Hnntley showered the berries on the daintily-fashioned oake/ and htunmed a sweet tnne to the swift motion of her handa, and the little shadow of a oloud went ont from her brow.
¦   Three days had puaed. " Wiit can be th« wawn," jannanMd Mrs.
Hnntley to hm»lf; u she sat in her dressing, room, "that Un. Oray bal not called for the money s^ di]r I t have laid by two for her, as Ura. l^y told ms they vera very poor *jii-Ml am intandbig to oaUon that lady this jift^inaon,! will leam the nsldeuoe of tin. Oray, and take thia myself; for somehow tbat woman's non-appeantnoa troubles me."
•" Ooodnesi, what a plaoe! I had no idea she was so wretchedly poor," miirmnr,>d to herself the lady with gracefully plnmed hat, and shawl of strange, gorgeous devioea, wrought in the looms of the Indies, as she care¬ fally pioked her way np tha riokaty, dilapida¬ ted stairs wherein dwelt MrB. Gray.
She reached the doot-to which she had been directed, and, baving knocked several times withoat receiving any answer, ahe gently lift¬ ed the latch and looked in. The bloom went out ftom tha lady's oheak st the scene whioh that half, open door revealed.
In the centre of the wretched apartment Btood a small deal table, on which was placed a ooffln; and bending over this, every feature of her haggard face written with a history of terrible suflTering, was Mrs. Gray. A moment later, she raised her eyes and confronted those of her appaUed visitor.
A startling ohange oame overtbe woman'a face. Sha stepped Bwlftly, quietly from the coffin to ttae side of Mrs. Hnntley, and laying her hand on the lady's arm, said, in a low, hoarse voioe— " Come with me."
The two stood together beforo the coffin; and then removing tho white oloth from the fioe of the boy tbat was hers no longer, Mrs. Gray pointed to him, and said slowly,and sternly— ' ilra. Hnntley, he was all I had, and he ia dead, and God will hold you reaponaiblej for you have killed him. Tbe dollar that you promised me, and then witheld, would have saved his life; and when other help came, it was too late."
"Ohl forgive mel forgive-me! Mrs. Gray. Ifl hsd only known,' ejacniated the lady, m broken tones, while the tears ponred down her cheeks.
And Mra. Gray looked on her visitor, and the stemess went ont from her featnres, and the mnsoles aroand her compressed month re¬ laxed ; she tamed to the dead child, and put away tenderly tha rioh brown curia that lay in thiok oluBtars on his marble forehead.
'Ay, thoy oan all weep for you now, my boy,' she said—all but yonr mother, who has not shed a tear sinoe they took away your little arms from herneck. Ohl Mrs. Hnntley,' she oontinned, and the pathos of a breaking heart was in every word, ' he was my ohild, my Willie, my treasnie, and I loved him just as well as you conld love yonrs, though you decked him with Jewels and nursed him in luxury, while I had not a crust to give him when he oried to me for food. Oh I Willy I my beautiful, my darling, yon are gone, you are gone, and I would have died to save you 1" "Yes,Henry, I have left nothmg nhdone for that poor woman's oomfort, and sbe seems calm and more resigned now; hut ohl I wonld giva all I possess to bring back tbat dead boy;" and with a fresh burst of remorsefnl teara, Mrs. Huntley laid her head on her husband's shoalder. He pnt liis arm around her. "Don't ory, darling," he said, " yon meant no harm; beaides, it was all done for love of me, and thongh the matter has ended ao un¬ happily, we have, I trast, both learned a lesson for the futnre."
" Yes, and one Ishall never forget," said the yonng wife, lifting her dark, tesr-fiUed oyes to her hnsband. " It ia, never to aay, ' Go, and oome again,' to those I employ. Ob, I never knew before, the worth ot' Only a dollar.
THE WOELD ALL WEONG.
"This is a very poor sort of a world to live in, after all I No end to the trials and troables and very little aolid satisfaotion I Old Father Solomon wasn't far wrong, on the whole, when he made that famous observation of hia about ' vanity of vanitiea I' And to think how difler¬ ent things looked when I was a boy I Nothing Hke experience to knock the nonsense ont ofa hody, and teach him what a miaerable world thia is!"

And onr phlloaopher heaves a sigh that might have come from nnder Mount Yeauviua, and looks at his ponderous gold watoh, and con¬ clndes it ia tima to leave brown-stone mansion for his white marble offioe.
Dinner at six o'clock, my dear, as nsnal. I'll send home some game, and a nice reating- piece of mutton, and perhaps two or three lobsters. I wish yon would aee that the oook gets the sances and gravies all right, and that the cofl'ee is atrong and hot when it comes on thetable. The least thing is sufficient to overturn my appetite now-a days—that tongh pie-crust spoiled my dinner last night. Thinga didn't use to be bo when I was a boy 1"
When yon were a boy 1 Do you remember tbe bowl of blackberries and milk that your mother naed to aet by for yonr snpper, on the " milk-room shelf," and how delicious it was, eaten on the old-door-stone, with the moon rising above the wooda, and the flre-flies dan¬ oing abont in the gray dusk f Yon didn't spend your days in a big velvet easy chair, in thoae times, we shrewdly imagine—" the world " hadn't such a weight of'dyspepsia and indigestion to answer for. Do you remember tbe knot of umbrageous old chestnut treea, in the comer of the hay field, where yoa lay at noontide and watched the bits of blue heaven glimmering throagh the shifting canopy of leaves, as you ate your simple dinner out of a shining tin pail ? All tbe spices that Boyer ever dreamed of conldn't make your cut glaaa ailver garnished dinners half aa good now.—. And who's to blame ?   The world, of conrse.
Don'tyou perceive, sir, that it is yon, and not the world, that has changed! The wooda where yon went nutting as a boy are Btill rnatling their gold-tipped leaves above the mossy hauntB where the oheatnnta nsed to rattle down at every breeze—the air is as soft over the com-fields as when you oame whistling through them, flfty years ago. Tliose very rainy dayB, that play the mischief with yonr coms and your rheumatism now, and form part of the general oomplaint against the world—^have yon- forgotten how Bolidly yon enjoyed them in the old garret at bome, when tbe pattering monotone on the shingles kept time to the pace of yonr ambition fancies and the turning pages of yonr book J Yon were a boy then—a happy, dreaming boy: now yon are a pursy, pn^ apopletio old gentleman. Ah, yon missed it sadly when yon changed Natnre for WaU street, and displaced the regimen of blaokberries and milk to make room forpalei def oie grat, high-priced wmes aud French msde dainties.
Therefore yoa have no right to groan atthe ineqnaUties of Providence, when yonr oarriage rolls past honest Michael smacking his Upa over hia noon-day repast among the beams aud timbers of some half.finished bailding. Michael is all aglow with robust healtb, thongh there are few qoppers in his wom pockets to jingla. against one another; his 'dinner is emblamed in cerements of brown papar, whUe yonrs is aerved on frosted sUver and Sevres.

A HEEOINE OF SETTEHIY-SIX.
I don't like to heu the notee ofthese ham¬ mers. The dnll Bong of laboring picks breaks npon the ear with monotonous regnlarity. They are making tracks for a raihoad in this old town. I am not pleaaed with the Improve¬ ments," as some call it, for a pleasant farm- housa and its Burronnding flelds that sloped from high and nndnlated hOla had vaniahed, forever before ita nod. The great genina of enterprise, with hia ngly ahears of commeice, ia cUpphig at the poor winga of poetry and romance, till, I fear, by.and-by, they wil^ have only power tt*' flap along the ground, tbeir ethereal faonlties ohahied down tostook- taking and invoices.
I am sorry ths house has, gone, for there are soma racoUeotlons connected with its hiatory for the sake ofwhich it wonld be pleasant could it have been spared. An old farm-houae sarronnded by fields of waving grain and com in the autumn time, and overhang by the branches of varioua trees, golden with the fnUness of time, la a sight of pioturesqae beaaty in a rich valley, especially ifa flne old monntain looms np in tbe background, or a deep shade of forest trees stratohoa away into the olear meUow atmosphere beyond.
In that one before us, fl am now speaking as if it stood in theold spot,) the widow of the noble Captahi Pierpont lived some twenty years ago. The lady waa a flne speoimen of old time womeu ; dignifled even commanding in manner,with a fresh bloom npon hercbeek, ariistically-moolded forehead, and a deep, earnest expression In her bright eyes. She was a woman of reflned and cultivated intel- leotnal powers; a womaii who in youth bad known no stint of wealth, whose mind was stored with classic lore, who had never tiU Bhe emigrated to the wildernesa of the New World, soiled her flngers with even household work.
Father and huaband were both dead. The bones of the former reposed in another oonn¬ try, beneath a marble monument; the latter had now slept two years in the little burying gronnd, beside the wooden chnrch in sight of the red farm-honse, and a small gray atone marked the Bpot where hia aahea mingled with tbe dnst.
One day, during the hardest campaign of our soldiers, Madame Pierpont, was alone at the farm. Pomp, a negro servant, had gone on some errand which wonld detain him nntil night-fall, and Alex, the hired man, had wounded his baud in the morning with an axe, 80 that ha waa quite diaabled, and waa obliged to return to hie home, a niile distant, which, by the way, was the neareat homestead to the old red farm-honse. The widow's four brave sons, of ages varying from eighteen to twenty-six, had started bnt two days previons for the fleld of their country's battle.
WhUe the widow realized that in aU prob¬ abiUty, some, perhapa all, of her treasures would be smitten with the ruthless hand of war, her cheek waa atill nnblanched, and holy hope sat in the repoae of her beantifal features. Only now and then she turned to open her Bible hefore her, and read a few consoling passages, and straightway resnmed her work with a trnatlng amUe. Ah I patriotiam found an endearing home in many snoh gentle breasts. Suddenly from the distance came a sound like the trampling of horses' feet, and a great cloud of dust betokened the approach of trav¬ elers hurrying to their destination. The wid¬ ow moved to the door, and shading her eyes from the intense snnshine, watched their progreas. They drew nearer, and in another moment three horsemen drove np before the door. They wore miUlary coatnme, and were all fine looking men. The foremost gentlc- u;an hy far exceeded the others by his im¬ poaing figure, and the greatneas of hia counte¬ nance. It needed no introdnction to assure the widow that thia was George Waahington. With that character which always oharacter¬ ized him, he bowed gracefully to Madame Pierpont, aa he blandly asked if he conld flnd reat and refreahment.
" Onr horses are wearied; we have ridden Bince this morning aud wonld fain recruit," he added.
" Certaiuly, gentlemen, and welcome," ahe replied, Bmilingly, throwing open the inner door as they dismounted.
" Onr poor beasts," said one of the officera, patting his smoking horse. " I would they could be'attended to immediately. Is there a groom or servant abont your honse, Madame who could mb down and feed thom ? I wiU reward him Uberally."
" We would ask no reward in this houae¬ hold, sir," repUed the widow; *'if you will lead them round they will be oared for."
" Make yourself perfeotlyoomfortahle, gentle¬ men," said the widow," and excuse me while I pre^'are yonr refreshments. You muat be hnngry as weU as fatigued."
In another minute the widow waa in the stable unsaddUng the poor horses—work to whioh she was uot accustomed, but which she nevertheless conld do in time of need, being a woman of strong muscular frame and great energy. She knew it mnst he done by her¬ self or not at aU. As for men and horses, they were completely jaded ont. She with straw mbbed the animals down with her own hands led them into stalls, and prepared aud gave them food. After changing her dreaa the widow returned again to the parlor, where tha officers, having nnbnokled thoir swords and dofl'ed their caps, sat conversing together, evidently enjoying a delightful rest. As the widow stepped over the threshold of the room one of the officers waa remarking to hia com¬ panions—
" He was one of the hest men, and as fine looking a yonng fellow aa ever volunteered." " Do yon apeak of young Pierpont!" asked another.
" Yes, he fell yeaterday, pierced by three balls, poor fellow; it waa a hard fate for Buch a boy."
For one moment the oheek of the widow was blanched, the heart of the mother shook¬ ed, bnt she spoke almost calmly as she aaked: " Which one was it, sir?"
" Henry Pierpont, if I am not mistaken	
Was he known lo you?"
Was he known to her f Oh, the torment that foUowed that question I Henry! Her noble Srat.bom 1 He wbo had taken the place of the dead at their board, and, with a gravity beyond his years, carried out the plana his his father left unfinished. And now hia blue eyes wera olosed forever I hia hright looks rolled in the dust I 01 the thought was an¬ guish I A deathly paleneas came over her, but she ralUed with a great eflort, and said aa calmly as before, as she turned her whitened cheeks away: "He was mj son, sir." They did not see her face as she walked qniokly and firmly oat of the room.
" Now, God forgive me 1 I feel as if I had done a cowardly thing, muttered the offloer, while hifl lips grew pale with emotion. " Com¬ ing here to partake of tbis woman's hospitaU- ty, I have orneUy stabbed her to the heart."
" Yoa ara not to blame, my friend," said Washington, in his deep tones, in whioh was blended a sudden pathoa. " Neither, if I read hor aright, would she recaU the chUd bravely fallen in his conntry'a cause. This is no com¬ mon woman—her very face speaks of her soul's nobUity. Mark me, when yon.next see her she will be tearless; no word of sorrow WiU isaae from her Upa. Our mothers, onp wives—I am proud to say it—are heroines in this trying period. And this," he oontinned, pointing to the Bible, " this is the Becret of their greatnesa; whenever you behold that volume opened, bearfaig evidence of constant perusal, there yoa wiU flnd women oapable of uiy emergenoy. I-pepeat it, when we meet again, she will ba calm and tearless, althongh a mother bereaved of her ohUd."
And so it was, Madame Pierpont had schooled her grief for the time into a sodden and sacred sabmission, and when the oflloeiB ware called into another room, to jpaitdtei bf the nooidog vlsnda iihs had piapuedjUux |fbim3]uio(dlMted,imiyuigedin3wrau^

Toward night the trio departed, thanking the kind woman with grateful hearts for her courtesy. Thay foond their horses ready saddled, snd were foroed to conjecture that Madame Plaipont hsd herself performed tha dnty of ostler.
General Waahtogton kindly took her hand before be moanted his charger, and addreased her tenderly and afi'ectlonately. Tears came to the eyes of the officers while they listened, but, though an increaaed pallor overspread tha widow's face, sha murmured^
"I am thankful, thankful to my God, sir, that He haa deemed me worthy of demanding my flrst-bom in this glorious straggle. He was ready, air; ready for life or death."
But when they had gone, and ahe returned to the aUenca of that lone honae, the mother wept exceedingly bitter teara. Draw we the curtain before her saored auguish.

JULIA HOWAED.
Dear, kind reader, I have a atory to tell yon—the Btory of Jnlia Howard.
One bright, bracing, September moraing, she stood in her pleasant ohamber, in white dress and flowing vail—no longer Julia Arn.ild^ for the aolemn words which had made her a Wife had just been nttered by the gray-haired minister.
JnUa was ao very happy in the thought that ahe belonged entirely to Henry Howard, and he to her; that was plain from the tender amile which hovered aronnd her red lips, and the deep holy love.light in her brown eyes. Bot when, with trembUng handa, her mother and aister removed the white lUies from her hair, and folded away the bridal robes, the bright vista down which Julia had beun gaz¬ ing into the future, grew dim with tears, for the home Bhe was leaving was very dear to her, and now ahe conld see noihing beyond ii. And crying bitterly, she donned the tradition¬ al gray travelling suit, and with her husband, started for the new home which waa hundreds of milea away, in a strange oity.
A very sweet little home it was, of whioh Jnlia was to be the flreside fairy—very hum¬ ble, but so cheerful and tasteful—one ofthose
tiny nests in whioh B aloonda, whoae
gay, liappy flower-gardens give one anoh a home feeling, iu wandering throngh the more nuostentatioua portiona of that moat beantiful city. Julia's home was one of these, as I said, and when on tbelr flrst eveninig at honaa- keeping, the hnsband and wife sat togetber in the cozy bow-window, which reaohed almost from one side to the other of their minature drawing-room, they looked oat npon a brU¬ liant mosaic of Flora's workmanship; while bere and there a very perceptible difference in atyle and coloring, ahowed that the fair Flower Queen had no Boorn of anch assiatance as would show her own work off to the best advantage—and had received it from that in' imitable coloriat—tbe Frost King. Over the way the view was bonnded by a tall brown, stone block, whioh excited no envy in Julia's bosom. Nothing in the worid wonld have in¬ duced her to exchange her two Btory domain, with its small rooms and delightful bow- window, for the moat Btately mansion iu that imposing block. So time passed, and for two years Julia's onp of bliss kept mantling np and np.   A more peaceful  home—a  more
happy wife could not be found in aU B ;
and then cama the crowning blessing, and Julia's heart conld scarce contain its sweet raptnre as she gazed npon her baby-boy. Aa the ohild grew her heart expanded, and her life beeame full of high aims; a aoft thought- fulness settled on her brow, where before girlish light-heaitedneas had been the pre¬ vailing expreaaion.
Itwas on Harry's second birth-day; and that yoang gentlemau had reoeived a wonder¬ fal wheelbarrow, iu commemoration of the event, and father and mother were watch¬ ing his pretty delight in his treasure; bat in Henry Howard's face was a care-worn har¬ assed look, whioh Jnlia had never seen there before. A nameleaa dread feU npon her heart, and she aaked, anxiously and lovingly^"Daar Henry, what is it that cau bring snch grave lines about yonr month and eyea, on baby's birth-day ? I think the smiles have a right to be very indignant at the trespass. Do tell me—it mnst be something dreadfnl," she added,as a flush ofpain monnted to his tem¬ ples, and he ttimed sway nervously and qaickly. He controlled himaelf, however, and aaying, careleaaly, "Nothing more dread- fnl than a headache, Mra.

All tbe next day the gloom deepened in Julla'a heart—she oould not shake off her depression, and something seemed whisper¬ ing that it was a presentiment of some com¬ ing event, whose terrible dreary shadow had been sent before to wam her; nor was thia feeling abated, when aU through the evening Henry sat moodily staring at his book bnt seeing no words. One, two,throe weeka pasaed in mnoh the aame way, then the clond broke over them, the shadow took form and sab¬ stance—and terrible indeed waa the revealing. The flrm iu which Howard waa junior partner had failed, and every doHar was swept away —and more fearfnl still, was the faot that on Henry Howard's name fell a blaok atain of dishonor, thongh not all deaerved. Uia senior paitners were unjust, or if just nngenerons in heaping blame snd reproaches and disgrace on hia head. He seemed utterly heart-broken and weaknesses, of which in prosperity Julia had never suspected the exialence, began to show themaelves. Her brave womanly spirit failed to inspire' him with any courage, for tha battle with its difficalties wonld have made life all the- brighter when the clouds were dispeUed. Slowly his health failed, sud Julia, patient, loving woman that she was never grew weary in her care for him ; and wben tfae faint faeart whioh had drooped ba¬ fora tha first blast of tba tempest was stilled forever, and tha lifeless form was carried away from the bome she had entered not flva years before a Joyons girl-wife—then the waves of agony want surging and. moaning over her heart; and in an hour, when for the darkness of her'despair aha conld not sea bayond it up to heaven, she longed for death, and mnrmnred at the hand which had bo smitten her. But God is merciful, and he aent his angels to oomfort and 'buid np the bleeding heart. Her beantiful boy waa atUl left her, and with mora intenaity tban ever sbe grew to love her laat idol.
The Uttle honse was sold, and the proceeds given to her husband's creditors ; bnt pitiably smaU waa the amonnt in proportion to the claims ; and pale snd aaddened, JuUa retumed toher childhood's home. Here she fonnd much to divert her, for her parents were far from wealthy, snd s school of the vUlaga ohUdren wss gslhered, over whioh the young widow was instsUed ss tescher.

SLIPPEEY PEOPLE.
There is a class of people who resemble eels in their manner of going through Ufe. They are your smoothpeople who slip throngh the band when you attempt to catch tfaem, and leave you wondering how they oould hsve eacaped. The band of morala; law or right faila to hold them, and yet they aeem to rec¬ ognize them all. A bargain with Bnch men always resnlts in their gain; there is some loop left for them to hang an advantage on; something that wUl redound to their partic¬ ular glorUioation or profit. They are aplendid managers of beuevolent institutions, occnpy high places in the moral worl.I—for snch are not those men who get oaught; and if they get caught they manage to slip through-are great on morlgages, lend money on the right sort of Becurity, and never loae, and whichever way they fall, they light aU right. They are pol¬ iticiaus, and always manage to ba on the win¬ ning aide. In life, thay are unexceptionable, with oharaoters exceUent. Bnt tbey are slippery neverthelesa, and even while praising them, aa men may, hi their short-sightedness, and they wriggle throngh to the end, tbe veil WiU be lifted and the time that tries aU do justice to them.
DUTIES OE A MOTHEE-
She Bhouid be firm, alwsys kind, always ready to attend to her ohUd. She shonld never langh at him—at what ha does that la cunning—never allow him to think of his looks, except to be neat and clean in his hab¬ its. Shonld teach bim to obey a look—to respect those older than himself; ahe should never make a command withoat seeiug that it is performed in the right manner. Never apeak of the ohUd's faults or foibles, to repeat his remarks before him. It is a sure way to spoil a child. Never reprove s child wben exoited, nor let your tone of voice be raisad when correcting. Strive tq inspha love, not dread—respect, not fear. Remember, yon are trafaiing and educating s aonl for eternity.— Teaoh your chUdren to wait upon themselves, to pnt sway a thing when done with it. But do not forget that yon ware onoa a child.
JOTTINGS BY THE WAY.
A Paris correspondent relates the following: " I heard an amusing anecdote the other day, illustrative of Franoh incompetency to master any foreign languages. A yonng married lady, wedded to a German or Dutohman, was mak¬ ing purchases in the Chausaee d'Antin. At length she desired the things purchased, might be aent to her address. "And yonr name, ma'am ?" " Really, sir, I am not ao. quainted with my name; I was the Frincesa TremouiUe, and I hsve married the Baron- Tenter—Tenter—if you WiU call my servaut, who is at the door, I think he knows."
During the first settlement of the town of Crawfordsville, Ga., the native place of Alex¬ ander H. Sterhens, a leading member of the present Congreas, the Commisaioneis passed an ordinance prohibiting any juggler from operating within the corporate limits without the payment of a oertain lioenae. Before many days, the Marshal presented to the honorable Board of Commissioners a jvggter who had refased to pay his license. When asked how he knew him to be a Juggler, he replied: " Why, he's got a cart load otjugs right down here now 1"
The veteran counsellor Caldbeok, one day, oroBB-examining a conntry fellow aa witness, asked him in several ways what he thonght a | particular person ti> ba, from his own knowl- ' edge, hearsay and belief bnt conld get no other answer, than that " he did not know and could not tell." "Come, fellow," said the connsellor, "anawer me on yonr oath; what wonld you take me to be, if you did not aotnally know my peraon, and shoald meot me in the street»" "Why, then," saya the fellow, " since you ask me, 1 will tell you, sir. By -virtue of my oath, if you had not that wig and gown npon you, I should take yoa for a tiute ould pedlar ?" The leamed coonseUor was sildnced.
A new mode of collecting a bad debt was moat effectively tried a few weeks ago in the Rne de Is Seine, in Paris, before the lodgings of a somewhat dissipated Btndent. A man was obaerved walking np and down before the house,   having npon  hia  baok  a large
placard, with the  words,   " Monsieu   C	
owes me for thirty bottles of uin rouge ; I am waiting untU he paya for them." He did not have to wait very long.
Jonathan Long, a gawky Bix-footer—com¬ monly ealled "Long John"—when on his way to market, always atopped for hia breakfaat at the tavem of old i&Jor F. The Major ob¬ aerved that John waa a tremandona eater, and had looked crab apples at him until he waa tired, in the hope of inducing him to get his breakfast elsewhere. But it availed not. Long John was again on hand, "Major," Baid he, " can't I have some saaaengera for break¬ fast ?" " Yes," replied the Major, gruffly, "yon can have them, if we've got enough in the house." He then bawled to the housemaid, and'on her appearing: "There, Betty," said he, " go take tha measare of that man, and fry him his length in sausages 1"
Both Sinss op the Tdbf.—A cnrious story is told in connection with the winner of the Frenoh Derby. It is said that M. Lataobe de Fay, when on his death-bed, begged hia lady to maintain hia stable of racera nntil ghe should have won the "Derby," op should hsve lost two hundred thonsand francs hi the effort to do so.

Buckets of watar were dashed upon the flre, but in vain. There were large quantities of rashi and tar on board, snd it wss useless to sttempt to ssva tha ship. The passengers pushed forward and inqnired of the pUot, "How far are we from Bnffalo I" "Seven mUes." "How long befora we reaoh it?. "Three.qnarters of an hour, at our presant rata of spead." "Is there any danger?"— "Danger i«r«—see the smoke hnnting ontl —go forvjard, if yon would save your lives I" Paaaengera and orew, men, womeu, and chil¬ dren, orowded the forward part of the ahip. John Maynard atood at the helm. The flamas burst forth in a aheet ofihe; clonda of smoke arose. The oaptain oried out, throngh hia trnmpet, " John Maynard I" " Aye, aye, air 1" "Are yon at the helm?" "Aye, aye, ahl" "How does ahe head?" "Sonthoaat.by-eaat, air!" "Head her southeast, and mn her on shore." Nearer, nearer, and yet nearer, she approaohed the shore. Again the captain oried ont, "John Maynard 1" The reaponae came feebly, "Aye, aye, sirl" "Can yon hold out five minntes longer, John i" " By Qod's help, I wiU 1" The old man's hair was scorched from the scalp, one haud d^a}iled, hia knee npon tha atanchion, and his teeth set, with his other hand upon the wheel, he stood firm aa rock. He beached the ship; every man, woman and child was aaved, as John Maynard dropped, and his spirit took its flight to hifl God.

Night ia heautiful in itaeU, bnt stin more beautifni in its associations. It is not Unked, as day is, with our cares and onr toUs—the business and listlessness of life.
