I Then came the agony of coufestion of the j hitherto honest wife. She will weep and | A richly dresaed lady, f llowed by a man¬ servant, stopped at a market-stall one Satnr¬ day, and bought a pair of chickens of the old huckster woman. The lady offered a five dollar bill, which the huckster oould not change. A man making some purchases at tbe same time, offered io oblige the huckster by taking the bill and giving her five gold dollars for it. He gave them to her, and she retumed the just change to the lady. The latter had not walked a square before she discovered that one of the gold coins was counterfeit. She took it back to the market woman, who insisted upon her taking a good dollar instead, adding that she would see the man who had given her the bad one, the next time he passed, and make hira take it back. Quite willing not to lose tbe dollar, the Xady consented. A few days afterwards sbe passed tbe stall again, and stopped to ask if the woman had yet seen the man who had given her the counterfeit dollar. "Lawa,no, honey," was the reply; "I wasn't a going to let you keep it, being as you are my best customer; but I jast passed it the Tery next time I had to make ohange, and no fuss. Never yon mind, honey, the woman &al gave it to served me the very same triok last week. I was glad to get a chance to pay off." *'I am sorry that it is going any further," said the lady. "I came here on purpose to get itand destroy it. I thoaght I could better afford to loae it than many another. Now I shall always be sorry I did not do my duty when I had it in my power." "Laws, then, I wish I'd kept it, for Peg Bly, who I gin it to, will likely pass it off on some poor body, and it does seem fair that the big- bugs should lose wbat must be loat anyhow. I will see if Pe< has got it yet, if you're wil¬ ling to wait a bit." No—Peg had not got it! She would hare scorned to keep it so long. But choosing her victim with some discretion,among those she called bigbugs, sho gave it to a middle-aged man, whose fingers were so cold that be waa less particular in examining his change than usual. Arriving at home, he fonnd the dol¬ lar bad, but could not remember at which atall he received it; so in great indignation at tbe dishonesty of those Unckaters, ho mado up his mind to pocket his loss. He went to church regularly—or, rather, to Methodist meeting—but of all things, he ha¬ ted the poor plate, which waa passed aroand every Snnday forcontrilmtiona. Yet he gen¬ erally put something into it, because folks' eyea were upon him. The next Sunday, when it came round, he malicioualy pat there¬ in the counterfeit dollar. "There," thought he, "you are welcome to that!" He did not bluah, or look, or feelaahamed. Obaervera would never know tbe cheat. How- ever, when the preacher read the Bible lea- sou about Annanias and Sapphira, he had to comfort himself with the remembrance that the age for nairaclea ia past. That afternoon alady called upon him, snd complained that a counterfeit dollar which she had given to such huckster, had been trans¬ ferred to another, who had given it to him. She had come to redeem that dollar, aa her conacience troubled her about it, and she supposed it was still in his possession of oonrae. The avaricious man always took care ofhis reputation. He protested that the market woman mnat be mistaken, aa he conld show her every gold dollar in the honae, and they were all good. She must have given it to some other man. The lady was ao sure that abe hesitated and was inclined to urge the matter, when the unlucky wife aaid to her husband': "George, you put a gold dollar on the plate. That muat be it." Shame and anger anffused his face ; but he aaid plausibly, "Oh, perhapa ao I 1 did not think of that! Now what a pity \ i should have observed more olosely. But I will make it up another time." "I feared it would be so. It has gone to tho poor, who can least bear its loas,"' aaid *'Quick to Eat, ftuick to Woik."

It ia "the faahion," just now, to rail against fashion. Hasbanda and fathers are continually sending up serio-comic com¬ plaints against the tyranny of the fickle di¬ vinity, and making alarming estimates on dry-goods and millinery bills—editors make nse of their colnmna to give fashion official "fits," and altogether, she seems to us, an abused individual. We contend, then, that fashion is a very good thing, and taking a bold stand, are prepared to prove it. In the first place, it is as absurd that we should al¬ ways wear the same styles of garmenta, as tfaat we flhould alwaya eat the same food, or drink the same beverages. The eye love^ variety—sameness palls upon the taste, and if we acknowledge that beauty means any thing at all, we acknowledge the necessity of haviug fashions. But the strongestargument in their favor, is the immense variety of em¬ ployment they giv 3 rise to—the immense nnmber of mouths which they fill with daily breads There are hnndreda of persona who deserve a living just as well aa any of Uit- and who are occupied solely iu designing new patterns for gooda, jewelry, garments, embroidery, etc., etc. Stop the fashions, and you stop the salaries of all these peraoas.— It ia undoubtedly true, that nobody's salva¬ tion ever depended upon the oat of a coat or the form of a wristband, bnt it ia a grave mis¬ take to think that the absolute necessities of life are the only things worth working fort and too much oant has been talked aboot "humility" and "plainness" in all things.— Snch humility ia, after all, only another species of van y. ¦ ^ m tion of problema and for essays ara announ¬ ced. t-^'m- - - Problem 2.

" WAGGBEy.—Some time ago, on the Sabbath day, we wended our way to one of our church¬ es and instead ofa sermon heard au address upon some missionary or other bevevolent subject. After the addresa was concluded, two brethren were seut around*.with the bas¬ kets for oontributiona, Parson L , who waa ono of the basket bearers, taking the aide upon which ws sat. Immediately in our front, and upon the next seat, negligently reclined onr friend Bill H , a gentleman o^ infinite humor and full of dry jokes. Paraon ^ extended the basket, and Bill slowly shook hia head. "Come, William, give ns something"' said [From tfae Home Journal.] THE DAIKTT LUCY. BI HUILT K. Fi.ilB.

It is the most unphllosphical, iojndicipus condition into i whioh poor humau nature over throws itself. A man in a hurry alwaya doea his work care¬ lessly, and generally contrives to commit; some blunder, through the excitement of try¬ ing to do an hour's labor in ten minutes, which spoils the whole thing, and necessitates ita being done over again, at the expense of twioe as much time and trouble. By always hast¬ ing, but never hurrying, one may accomplish an immense deal. Arrangement, application, and steadiness, are the three great auxiliaries to the- performance of anything and every¬ thing—without them, nothing can be done— with tbem, there is never any need of hurry¬ ing. One of the moat piolific novelists of this age, has never, since he commenced his publio career, written longer than two hours in the twenty-four; but he has written Jtwo hours ineoery twenty-four, and volumes upon volumes'attest the power of accomplishment UNION HOUSE, Ejist king street, TWO DOORS WE.iT OF THE CODUT HOUSE, LANCASTER, PA.

ITAMKKBKBOF THE EPnEATA UTBBAaT SORIBTT.*
There Is a spot where ellver's mined; Tfaere Is a place where gold's reflned; The iron ore, mankind obtain From ont the Earlh, on elope or plain ; The brasi la made, when Area combine Ttae copper with the calamine.
IL
God eets an eud to darkneu grim, Perfection'e fonnd alone by Uim.— Freeh Bpringa tarprisa the -ooh of men T\'bere epringa and floods had never been; Old springs are dried, that ouce did play. And from men's knowledge pasaed away.
III. The boanteons Earth prodnoea bread. And in her bosom flree are fed.— The Ktones of Earth conceal bright gems That have no peers on diadems.— Were monntuins rent. luen might behold The precious eand and dust of gold.
IV. There Is a path remote and far, Dntracked by chariot aud by car;— No fowl npon tbat path bath(been. No eaglti'e eye that path bath seen. No lion whelp tfaat path bath trod. Nor mightier lion pressed Its sod.
V.
Upon the rock, God pnU his hand. And monntaluB ebake In all tbe land. Be ontteth rivers from tbe rocks. And nature's eecrete He anlockd. He hinds the torrent In its might, And brln a tbe hidden into light.
VL But where shall wlwiom Btill be foand ? Ornnderstaodlng true and eound ? Men kuow not wisdom's precious wortb, It Is nol common to th« Earth. Tbe depti) has said,—"'Tis not in me,"'— The same was ecboed from tbe sei.

Not all the fcilver of the earth. Or gold can bay ita precious worth.— With it tbe sapphire's brilliant glare, Or Ophir'e gold cannot compare. Crystal and gold however bright, Cau never equal wisdom'* light.
VIIL Wiadom cannot be bonght or sold For vaee and urn of finest gold. Tbe worth of wisdom*» far beyond Tbe mby. or the diamond. Or topaz, from Ibe brown, dry sand t>f Ethiopia's distant land.
IX.
True wisdom's hid from living eyes. From birds thai float in aznra skies.— Whence cometh sacred wisdom tfaen * Or understanding unto men? Death and de»traction sav.—"We hear Tbe fame thoreyfwith Ustonlngear."
God knows the way whence wisdom gald&t.
The apot where it in peace abides.—
He sees the ends of Earth arise,
Aud all the glory 'neath the skies.
He measures waves and surging sean.
And weighs the storm, and gala, and breeze.

"God verily numbera the hairs of our j

Then came the agony of coufestion of the j
hitherto honest wife. She will weep and |
A richly dresaed lady, f llowed by a man¬ servant, stopped at a market-stall one Satnr¬ day, and bought a pair of chickens of the old huckster woman. The lady offered a five dollar bill, which the huckster oould not change. A man making some purchases at tbe same time, offered io oblige the huckster by taking the bill and giving her five gold dollars for it. He gave them to her, and she retumed the just change to the lady.
The latter had not walked a square before she discovered that one of the gold coins was counterfeit. She took it back to the market woman, who insisted upon her taking a good dollar instead, adding that she would see the man who had given her the bad one, the next time he passed, and make hira take it back. Quite willing not to lose tbe dollar, the Xady consented. A few days afterwards sbe passed tbe stall again, and stopped to ask if the woman had yet seen the man who had given her the counterfeit dollar.
"Lawa,no, honey," was the reply; "I wasn't a going to let you keep it, being as you are my best customer; but I jast passed it the Tery next time I had to make ohange, and no fuss. Never yon mind, honey, the woman &al gave it to served me the very same triok last week. I was glad to get a chance to pay off."
*'I am sorry that it is going any further," said the lady. "I came here on purpose to get itand destroy it. I thoaght I could better afford to loae it than many another. Now I shall always be sorry I did not do my duty when I had it in my power."
"Laws, then, I wish I'd kept it, for Peg Bly, who I gin it to, will likely pass it off on some poor body, and it does seem fair that the big- bugs should lose wbat must be loat anyhow. I will see if Pe< has got it yet, if you're wil¬ ling to wait a bit."
No—Peg had not got it! She would hare scorned to keep it so long. But choosing her victim with some discretion,among those she called bigbugs, sho gave it to a middle-aged man, whose fingers were so cold that be waa less particular in examining his change than usual. Arriving at home, he fonnd the dol¬ lar bad, but could not remember at which atall he received it; so in great indignation at tbe dishonesty of those Unckaters, ho mado up his mind to pocket his loss.
He went to church regularly—or, rather, to Methodist meeting—but of all things, he ha¬ ted the poor plate, which waa passed aroand every Snnday forcontrilmtiona. Yet he gen¬ erally put something into it, because folks' eyea were upon him. The next Sunday, when it came round, he malicioualy pat there¬ in the counterfeit dollar. "There," thought he, "you are welcome to that!"
He did not bluah, or look, or feelaahamed. Obaervera would never know tbe cheat. How- ever, when the preacher read the Bible lea- sou about Annanias and Sapphira, he had to comfort himself with the remembrance that the age for nairaclea ia past.
That afternoon alady called upon him, snd complained that a counterfeit dollar which she had given to such huckster, had been trans¬ ferred to another, who had given it to him. She had come to redeem that dollar, aa her conacience troubled her about it, and she supposed it was still in his possession of oonrae.
The avaricious man always took care ofhis reputation. He protested that the market woman mnat be mistaken, aa he conld show her every gold dollar in the honae, and they were all good. She must have given it to some other man.
The lady was ao sure that abe hesitated and was inclined to urge the matter, when the unlucky wife aaid to her husband': "George, you put a gold dollar on the plate. That muat be it."
Shame and anger anffused his face ; but he aaid plausibly, "Oh, perhapa ao I 1 did not think of that! Now what a pity \ i should have observed more olosely. But I will make it up another time."
"I feared it would be so. It has gone to tho poor, who can least bear its loas,"' aaid

The third -paper read before the section w&B " on the establishment bf a Silathemati- cal Journal," presented by Mr. J. D. Runkle, the Secretary of the Seotion. ^
Prof Caawell, of Providence, expressed the need he had'felt, as a teaoher, of anoh* a medium of aommnnicating mathematical knowledge, and of stimulating mathematical research.
Prof.' Woodman spoke of the advantages of the systematic co-operation whioh auch a journal would offer to mathematicians. He also commended tbe proposed elementary and educational features of the plan as tend¬ ing to improve the character of that prelimi¬ nary inatruotion of our schools and academies on which the mathematical ability of the ' oountry mainly depends.
Lieut. E. B. Hunt followed by recommend¬ ing, as an aditional feature of the journal, the publication in its pages of a bulletin of new mathematical works, that the student might readily flud the most recent discnssioi'S of any branch of the scieuce. He also sug-
The Lion and the Sktmk~A Bream.
I met a lion In my path,
('Twae on a dreary antumn night.) Who gave me the alternative
To eiiber run orflght.
[ dare not tnrn apon the track.
I dare not think to mn away. For fear tbe lion at my back
Woald seize me as his prey.
So. summoning a fearless air,
Tfaough all mr aoal was full of fright, I aUd'oato iba forett king,
" I will not run, bnt flght."
We fonght, and, ae the fates decreed,
I oonqaered la tbe bloody fray ; For Hoin tbe lion at my feet
A lifeless carcoas lay.
A little skunk was standing by.
And noted what the lion Kpoke ; And when he saw the Hon die.
The lion's tracks he took.
He ased the lion's Tery speech. For stretching to bis utmost height.
He gave me the alternative To either ran or fight.
I saw ba was prepared to fling Fresh odors from bis bushy tall,
Aad kuew those odors very eoon My nostrile wonld assail.
So, Rnmmoolng a bumble air,
Thoogh all my sonl was free from fright. [ Eaid nnto tbe dirty skauk
I'll run, hot will noi fight.
MORAL. As years begin to coot my bloud,
I rather alt'wonld doubt my spunk, Than for a moment nndertake
To Fight a human hkank.
