THE MAH "WITH THE BLUE TJM. BSELLA.
IC vaa not Paal Fry, this man with tbe bine umbrella. Tall, fioely formed, with a pleas ant eye, and bair tossed back from a fore¬ head browned bp ardent sans and shaded by some sorrow, he sad ienly appeared one day in oar village, wheu a sadden shower had oome op ani was deluging tbe streets. The expression of Uis coauteuauce was anxions ; and there was a qneationing lift aboat the eyelids, with a alight desponding cnrFe at the corners of the monlh. Altogether, he remind¬ ed one someway of one of those advertise¬ ments which appear in tbe daily papera, bead- . ed " Lost 1" I here was snch a soggestive- ness 10 be searched for—some treasure gone. The gay shop windows witb their priuts and their gorgeous flannels—the tall obarob fipire jast finished, aud intended to" point a moral" for eyery eye that sougbt its snmmit —tbe pretty cottages witb their wbite clap¬ boards, and cool, green blinds—had no attrac¬ tions whatever for the mnn with tho blue umbrella. Down Gray street and up Brown, through YeUow areaue aod .so on through Lane, and made bia way till he disappeared among tbe olnster of humble tenamehts to let, down near tbe river.
A stranger in a conntry town is publto pro¬ perty always. The vexatiou experienced at not knowing the " truth, tbe wbole tratb, and nothing bat the trntb, " concerning bim, is readily compensated by imagining a' great deal more than the truth ever contains. Every surmise was greatly aggravated and exaggerated, from the fact tbat the stranger had not been known to exchange a; siugle Bylalble witb any person since bis sudden ad¬ vent opon onr streets; and be might have dropped from tbe clonds with the firal great drops of that heavy shower, bringing a sam¬ ple of bine sky along for an umbrella, for angbt anybody positively knew to the con¬ trary.
And wbat could he want down among thoss tenements to let! Nobody lived there: likely to interest a manof Lis appearance. Title only person with auy olaim to reapeotibiHty, and her's was doubtful, was ayoung, pale cheeked womao, who soma tima ago came qnietly among us, aod solicited snob hiis of embroid¬ ery as tbe ladies might bave to pnt ont. Tbere was a mystery about her, and a mystery about a woman i-i alwaya a rebuke. Her work al¬ ways came panctually home, and not a fault could be fonnd with it. If any one wondered 'whether she brooght sighs or tears with her delicate vines and tendrils, their curiosity was never satisfied ; for ber sad greyerestold.no tale, and ber compressed lips guarded her seoreU well.
She sat at home all this summerday, plying her needle and tbread, nutil tbe raiu,pattering npon the worm eaten window sill, diew ber attention from her work. She glanced np at tbe clouds tbeu, aud after watching them awhile, leaned her head npon her hand, and dreamed over a day-dream which camo to her often now J and wbicb she could wake from withont annoyance, for she was very sure it woald come to her again.
She saw herself a glad hearted gtrl—tho pride at an indulgent father's honee,- her sole rival in that father's love, .one only brother, younger than berself, bnt wbom she loved with a devotion wbiob all hia follies and fits of evil temper Cset down by the father as the sowing of wild oats) Oipotd not alienate. Tbey had been lelt motherless at an aga wheu ohildreo misa a mother least and iieed her gnidanee most. .Left to hired nurses, who in tam left tbem to themselves, the boy and girl grew np wilful and headstrong—tbeir only mutual love, whioh, with Clare, was pure and devoted; with Qraham, tlnatnred with that BBlftibness whioh olihgs closer to boya nnder anoh a system of tutelage thaii girls.

How Tiyldly'Bhe lamamhared tha - modnrlaa on the aranlng of that same day, when she stole out. to tha park to bid tuawell brerar to tha man her BtroDg natnra would ollng to always with an undying love. The intended parting anded as many another befora and sinoa has anded. • Why,' George nrgad," ahonld they yield np their lifelong happiness to the whim of an old man vrho had ont-lived hie youth and the memory bf its passions and its hopes f Why shonid thay in springtime bring to tbeir btaasts theblight of antnmn? Why should they part,'sinoe existence henceforth could be noth¬ ing wiih :One another ? True, ha was not rioh, but what man was poor wilh yonth in his heart, and health In his veins ? No, no; thoy wonld live, they would love, tbey would wedl" Era the moon went down.that night many a mile lay between Clare and tbe bonse ot her fatber. The sunebine sawher George Mayor's wife. Tbey did not brave the storm they knew was raging in John Boyd's heart, bnt tbey felt its fury wherever lhey tni ned their wan¬ dering steps. The young hnsbani found lhat youth in his beart and health in bis veines were fragrila weapons to foil suoh influenoe as John Boyd oonld exercise, and disappointment met bim at every turn ; and the fires of anger began to kindle in his breast towards the 'ather who conid tbns subjectto privation and misery the Clare who was his danghter still, albeit George Meyer's wife. The only gleam in their olondy sky was the adherence of Graham thiongh all things. He visited them wherever they wandered; bnt he never failed to bring accoanta of his -father's continued auger and threats of unmitigated vengeance. From his conversation, Clare learned thather brother's conrse waa wilder than aver before, and that his companions were snoh as wonld one of these daya, bring a deeper sorrow to ber fatber'a soul than sbe badaver done. In vain she expostnlated. What was it to him that he was the sola link left in the old home be¬ tween his father's yonth and old age 1—He must sow his wild oats, he aaid, and the time was notyet oome for him to dash away the cup of pleasnre from his lips, fl'ay, he would drink the wine of life while it lasted—its lees would reach bim soon enongb.
After repeated struggles to sustain his wife in a manner suited to her former station, George, at last despairing and discouraged, ac¬ cepted the position of lodge-keeper on an estate adjoining that of his obdnrate father-in- law. If he dreamed of reaching his beart throagh his pride, he failed signally, for John Boyd's nature was all pride; his heart onl^a necessary machine to the maintainance of that obaraoteristio.
Glare fouud one comfort in [her position. She oonld roam in her father's park, revisit the haunts of her free and gladsome girlhood, and here, often joined by her brother, oonld have forgotton had she chosen to forget, the step whioh had exiled ber from the untram¬ meled enjoyment of tbese scenes. From aen- tences let drop by Graham recently,^ Clare grew fearful that- her father had restricted bim in bis allowance of funds ; and kuowing her brother's deaperate natnre, dreaded lest he shonid resort to cards or other means ot keep ing himself sapplied with mouey. The head keeper of her father's preserves bad hinted to George tbat Graham was leading a headlong course, aud threw out insinuation that should he detect and take into custody the p -acher or poaobers who had receutiy annoyed bis master so mnoh by carrying off bis pheasants and other game, that the old gentleman would regret tbat he bad not let the rogne escape. At this, Clare tnmed deadly pale and ex¬ changed a glance with ber husband—a glance whicb the head keeper remembered well af¬ terward.
A fow evenings after this George was re¬ turning from a neighbor's estate, wbere be had been to recaim a gun lent some time be¬ fore, and io order to shorten the distance, leaped the pailing wbiob separated his father- in law's gronnd, and was hurrying on through the uarrow path, when the hea^ keeper sud¬ denly stepped from behiud a tree and confron¬ ted Lim. George recoiled at first, for he had Ihongbt it was John Boyd, and he had no de¬ sire lo meet him anywhere, much less upon his own ground. He held out his hand to the keeper wiih a sense of relief ; nor noticed the keen look with which the other regarded him, nor the thoughtfal expressiou of his counte¬ nance as be attended bim to the last stile dividing him from his home and saw him safely over it.
Several nights after tbis,  George was aent for to set ap with a corpse, and Clare remained alone.   She watched her husband as far aa she could see bim, with tbat dim and unde¬ fined presentiment of evil which every woman who bas lived and loved has experienced at some time.   Tbe night was olondy aud dark, a high wind rising, and tho agitation of tbe enter world but served to  increase that in Clare'e own breast.   She tossed restlessly ou her pilliow, and day had not yet dawned wben she hurried on her clothes, and thinking to meet Qeorge returning, wont ont throngh the lodge gate, climbed the stile, and struck into that path on her father's estate which she fancied George would take in returning to ber. She had gone but a few steps wben the crack¬ ling of twigs, aa if ornsbed by a human foot, attracted her attention ; then followed a shot, instantly succeeded by a dull clump, as a pheasant fell to the ground.   Then auother gun was discharged, and still another,  and a fall wbich Clare knew was not tha fall ot a pheasant, was accompanied by a man's deep groan^   Clare rushed forward in the direction of the firing, and came suddenly in view of a prostrate and lifeless form extended on tbe gronnd, and recoguized it as ht r father's. Over bim with pale and frenzied feature, bent a face sbo knew too well; a face marked h.re and there witb hia victim's blood, and  tbo band he was slowly withdrawing from  the   dead man's heart wss gory 1   The murderer lifted bis eyes—khey met those of Clare;   but tbe next instant sbe was gone without a word, aud she Ras prone to believe it was bnt a vis¬ ion of ber esolted fauoy.
An honr afterwards, as Clare sat in a sortof dnll misery in her room, a knock startled her, and the head keeper oame in. Clare's face could not grow any paler, bat it seemed to her her heart waa turning white.
" I have bad news for you," the man said pityingly, aa he saw Clare's quivering lip. "I don't know how it waa, tbe master last night insisted on taking aj plaoe; and towards morning, as he waa going his rounds, he was .shot ma'am—shot dead I I harried oat as soon as I heard the firing, bnt tha master was atill and cool—qnite goue. Yonng Mr. George was bending over him, ma'am, his own gun discharged besides bim, and a dead pheasant nol far off'. We took him in onstody, aud he is now lodged inj BiL I dreaded this job of telling yon, ma'am, bnt couldn't get rid on't no wsy.
** Yon did not say my husband V* Clare burat forth; " You are mistaken, it was not him.'   Ob 1 I oau prove it was not him."
" I hope yoa can, ma'am, snre I do ; but everything tends agin him now. There was hia own gnu, with his name on the look, dose by for oue thing.
Clare shivered; for she knew to whom, with¬ ont her husband's knowledge, sha had lent the fowling pleoe onlj »W nighta before.
'Shasank back breathless nponher chair,j and, as the keeper went out, fell ttitb a deep stupor, from wliich sba wss aroased by soma ona bathing her iips.and temples.

"Didiiasandltby »o«f Havajoulooked npAn him in prison t" - Clara i»ied with a be¬ wildered loot.
"As soon as I heard of file arrest I flew to htm," was Graham's qnlet answer.
Clare sank back upon her pillow, and read the haatily scrawled lines her brother had thrust into her hands:
"DsAB Clabb—Do not be.oast down. I am in prison, but yon sorely ftnoto I sm not goilty of tbis awful crime. 1 waa. tetatning to yon in tbe grey of the morning. I took the falal path wbioh led me directly to yonr tB'her's dead body. I knelt and placed.my hand npon his heart, and, as I did so, was discovered there by the head keeper and two of bis men 1 Ap¬ pearances are against me; bnt.never, in; my bitieiest moments, wss I gnilty, even in ths thought of anoh a deed. Can yonremember who tiorrowed my gnn afler I earried it bome from Norton's! It was fonnd npon tbe spot. You see bow important it is for me to hava tbis bit of evidence cleared away."
Clare wilh trembling lips, read this alond to Graham.
" Yoo do nof reiiember who borrowed the gun, do you ?"
"I do distinctly," Clare said, fixing her searching eyea npon the calm face near her. Graham rose and walked to the window.- There was a loug and painful silence, which was not broken tiil the door closed bohlod the yonnj{ man's retreating form.
Upon George's trial, every bit _af evidence turned against him. The speaker spoke of the recent annoyance froai poaobers; his hav¬ ing met George once or twice in the park, with that self-same gnn in his hands; the well known fend existing between the accused, and deoesfed; his being fonnd; pale and bloody, bending over the corpse, his fowling-piece dis¬ charged beside him. Tben came tbe evidence ot the man with whose brother's oorpae be bad watched thst night, sbowiug al wbat time he Jeft the honse and that, at the nsnal pace of a man, he wonld reach the fatal spot abont the very time the firing was heard.
Tben Clare was called upon the stand. It had been positively denied by George's counsel that he bad the gun for several nights before the mnrder, Glare was expected to show who had borrowed her hnsband's gnu iu tbe mean, timo. She took her plaoe withont glancing at George, with wbom she had not been allowed the leaat intercourse since his incarceration ; bnt her eyes tnmed involuntarily to a distant comer of the conrt-room, where her brother's eves looked to her from a faoe blanched to deathly plaleness and wan from fearful auxiety.
Clare oould tell nothing. If she knew who borrowed fowling-piece, tbe terrible shock she bad endured hsd driven the oininmstsnoe wholly from her recollection. Sha had not noticed the gun since the night her hnsband bad brought it home from Norton's and hnng it in its accustomed plaoe.
A death-like silence reigned as she sat down, and Clara saw too flames of crimson shooting up over her brother's pale cheeks as yon have seen tbe red aurora borealis streak tha white northern sky.
She tnrned theu to her huabaud. His ayes were fixed npon ber with a wild, doubling ex¬ pression in tbem, lighted by the very depths ot despair. Sbe seemed to feel that a gnlf had snddenly yawned between them. She stretched out her arms to him, shrieked ont bis name, and fell inanimate to tbe fioor.
When she recovered ber senses, aba saw no familiar object.' There was the sonnd ot rush ing waters and the tread of many feet. She sprang to the floor, opened the door and look ed out.   Sbe waa on board a vesseL
"Whither bonnd!" she asked, in dreamy tones, of some one near her.
" For America," was the qniet response. The captain, at that momeni observing her, stepped forward and placed a note in her bands. "Your brother ordered every comfoit and attention for you, mias," be said; " and I hope yoo will make free to ask for whatever yoo wish during the voysge:"
Clare mechanically read the papers thus thrust into her bands. "I will explain all to George," it said. He is condemned, but be shall nol die t I will move heaven and eartb bnt be sball be saved. This, though, is no longer the land for yon. I might have gone, you say, instead of you. Oh, no I for I can aave and you could not. God blesayou 1—for¬ ever bless yoa Clare I"
Oh, the agony of those long, long days I— What would her hnsband think of her I Had she not read bis glance, which told he knew ahe had suppressed tbe truth wbioh might bave saved bim! Did he not look npon ber, tbe wife of his bosom, as his betrayer ! Would he not corse her for her cruel desertion ? Could abe trnst the brother wbo bad taken advantage other insensibility to tear ber, perhaps forever, from her husband's sight, to explain everything to him as he bad promiaed f Could be, toould be really save, as he so confldently averred he would! Tom by tbeae conflioting doubts and feara, tho weary days at sea went by for Clare like a slow procession of chaiued convicts ; and when, at last, she landed in New Yorkt the great city waa a horror to her, and she fied away from its bewildering sights and sonnds, and buried heraelf in a qniet conntry village, seleoting such shelter as her slender purse could pay for.
This waa the history wbich, day by day, the pale-cbeeked woman, down in one of those tenameuts to let, conned over and over again. How bitterly sbe accused berself; how abe pondered and pondered, dreamed ont results whicb she knew were vain, and indulged her¬ self with hopea she dared not oheriah. Wear- ify did ahe work, determined to go back to the scene of all her misery, to leam the end and be relieved of this frightful load of- suspense. She had no naws from her biother, and Bbe must believe her letters never reached their destination, or were never answered. So she mused this snmmer day, wilh the raiu falling down, while her head was on her hand, and a bitter sigh burst from her compressed lipa.
" Clare I" a voice said, close to ber—a voice
full of holy joy and rapture—*' CIar*]ook np I'
She did look np.   OuUide the low, little
window, stood the man with the blue nm
brella.
Clare did not scream or faint away. Bhe pressed ber handa very bard upou her heart, and gave a recoiling spring from her chair.
The next instant the blue embralla closed, and, with its owner, sprang into the little room.
Clare stood lika one transfixed—only a plead¬ ing look about tha eyes and a quiver abont the pale lipa.
The man approached and opened his arms— "Clare, my poor, snffering, persecuted wife- am I not welcome, then!"
Ob I bow tbe gates of tbs woman'ssonlflew open theu—how the pent-up grief of months poured forth, s'lsking tbe slight, girlish form with a force whioh bronght pitying teais ev^n .to tbe eyes of the hnsband.
" And yon forgive me all, George ! You have sougbt me out—you love me still !'*
" Foigiva yon, Clara! Waa I not tha first griefyou ever knew—the first thorn iu your palh! Did I not blight yonr happy girlhood with my serpent presence in yonr Bden—I, who oonld give yoo only love in retnm for all yon gave np for me. When I oame to know all did I not read the struggle yon endured be¬ tween the love whioh had grown wilh your grt'wtb, for an only brother, and a hnsband, who, after all wss, aa it were, bnt tha stiangar of an hour—who had deprived that brother of yoor sisterly inflnanos, but for which this last great misery might never hava coma aboat!

BT A TODHO CLEKOTMAlf.
I bid myself behind a log in a westem swamp, waiting for ducks. Hanters generally go after their game ; I prefer reading or en¬ joying tbe scenery, tmtU it oomes to be shot in a regular and leasonsbla way. Ducks must be as fond of nature, as ot acorns and tadpoles; the sequestered lakelet near which I was en¬ sconced, one of their favorite resorts, being surpassingly pictoreaqne. Silver-gray trunks of enormous dead trees wete n-flected in its surface as in polished blaok marble, whiob, broken into rippling greaves of Ught by the purple, green, and, golden drake, or the plain¬ er, but not less lovely duck, made too exquis¬ ite a picture to be broken by noiae, unsavory smoke, blood, broken wings, and featbers.— Every thing around me was " rich snd strange;" the arrowy polished tnbes of the oane, tbe thick black vines, like anacondas, hanging, as it were, from the skies; the light open fret¬ work of swamp foliage above, from wbioh many birds poured forth fluta-like and actually chromatic warbllngs; oomic birds, uttering short, odd notes; crimson aud azore birds, not down in tbe ornithologies; and mysterious woodpeckers, sounding as if all fairy-land, were carpentering. I was resolving in my mind, indeed, to take np my abode in this enchanted solitude, when the discovery of an immense old hollow stump of cotton wood de¬ cided me. It was a perfect minature palace— its stvle, I named on the spot, tba suti-arabs que. The gnarled roots spread in triple pedestals, like paws of mammoth lions, aud in its knots and excrescnces might be discern¬ ed the faces and forms ot beasts, monsters, hydras, and chimeras dire. Here, beneath a root of plaited oane and bark, I might pass my time in peace. (I was only eighteen, and snbject to terrible fits of miaaotbropy.) Even llio winds should not disturb my contempla¬ tion. Aqailone, Notus, Eurus, Earoolydon, the stoim-wind, all an forever kept out of these peacefal vales by the strong and stalwart cotton-wood and oak.
Tbe son of Sheikh Mohammed Ali Hazin, (may tbe soil lie lightly on his tomb.) relates, with inflnite naivtle, (may Allah ventilate his evidence,) how that, having determine! to lead a hermit's life, he weut abont searohing for a suitable oave. Certain family considera¬ tions operated adversely to Mr. Haziu's design. I was not so sublunary. Hungry I certainly was, and my flrst care being to provide dinner, and«ot wishing to disturb my beautiful duck pond, I searched the river flats for wild geese. This proved, literally, a wild goose chase. As usual with game, its willingness to be shot seemed inversely 'as its value. Re-entering the timber, to hunt smaller and sorer quarry what was my astonishment at beholding, wind¬ ing along a cow-trail, a grave, orderly proces¬ sion of theso very wild geese following after a middle-aged, sevete-lookmg woman, who was leading tbem towards a clearing.
" Why, madam, yon seem able to bewitch those animals. I have been trying all the morning to get witbin a mile ofthem."
" Wal, my boy, he rassled round among 'em and caught these, ona way or another. I bring 'em np every nigbt to feed, on account of 'possums and coons, whioh is mighty bad among the poultry. I reckon yon're a prea¬ cher."
"Notyet."
" I thonght you waa a preacher, ja'r*.   Ton look like one.   Yon ain't a dooior !" "No."
"Then walk in and taka achair. My old man's poorly. He's stopped work ever since last fall and this spring the garden was took down with knkklebnris and dock, and me and my liltle girl's beeu onttin' steamboat wood, but tbe steamboats don't mn mucb now—thar ain't bsen no rise these two months. Jane I drive them hogs away from tbe styew (stew) 1 don't know what I'll do if tbar ain't no steam¬ boat soon.

" Fe—oh, the fever and ague. Yes, I un¬ derstand."
" Oh, it's some here, is feveranger, you'd better believe I Yoa might almost cnt it into chnxiks. I thonght my old man would a beg¬ ged oot last night; but he holds on wonder¬ ful 1"
"Yon don't mean to say he's dying I" "1 don't mean to say nothing shorter. And I'm monghty sorry to lose him, too. He bla- ared all this fleld all ronnd back ot tha house and them tbar two fields .in the bottom.' He kep three acres a-goin to Joe Stebbini' one but he warn't a latchin' to Joe at onttin* tim¬ ber.

" Married him one year and buried him the next." "Andwbat did Ae die of?" " Feveranager."
I was shocked at the mechanical manner and facile emphasis (diminishing with geoma- trical'rapidity toward tbe laat syllable) with which sha uttered this fearinl word.
" Joe wam't mnoh at hoein'; bnt fae oonld knock spots ont ot things with au axe. He oonld cut more steamboat wood in one day thau BUl Sparks oonld In a week."
" And who waa Bill Sparks !" asked I, wtth a dread ptesentiinent.   -
" Bill waa a husband of mine, too. Be had money,-Bill.had, and he entered two forties of upland, and boaght fonr head o' oattle. Yon- dor's two of 'em now. I'm going to take 'am- np on the next hvit, to swap for grooarias.^' . "Dtd Mr. Sparks die, too!" *

"' Jane," says Sal, " what do yoa say !' "
"' Sez I, 'I'm willin',' sez I,' bat I oan't be married without a preacher 1'"
"'He aays thar's a preacher out that with him.'"
"'Ask him if it's Mister Skeggs; I won't ba married by nobody bat Mister Skeggs.' "
"'Yes,it's him.'"
" Weil, I strhck a light and put on my Snn¬ day diy-goods mighty quick.

" It wam't in money; it was tin oops Jimmy paid him with. Jimmy peddled tin cnps ronnd the ooimtiy, and had two dozen left. Mr. Skecgs put 'em round his neck in a string, and we heard 'em rattlin' on the prairie a mile off l'*
" Well, madam, I did faave some idea of living down in the 'bottom' myself,bnt "
" Down in the bottom I What, among tbem ponds of water! I see yon Iivin' there 1 A pound o' jui nine a minute wouldn't keep you alive two days I If you want a good building' lot, there's my two forties, I'll sell 'em cheap—a dollar and a half an acre.''
" I am not certain, after what you have re¬ lated, that I could live long, eveo in the up¬ lands."
"Not witbout you was naed to it, you couldn't. Some can stand it, and some can't- Now there's an old gentleman np to town that I tbink might stand it a couple o' year any¬ how. Squire Spriug, I reckon yon know bim; he's got a splendid wagon and team, and, they do say, he's got a hnndred bead o' bogs. You never beerd, did yon!".
Could the woman possibly mean to compass the deliberate muider of Squire Spring! I wauted nothing further to hasten raj depar¬ ture.
The shades of evening were falling fast, tbe owlbad already begun to utter hia long-drawn, frightful ray, a mingled whoop and howl, and receiving a few general directions as to my nearest way to B , I rapidly left my newly- chosen residence to rearward, debating within myself wbether or no it was my duty to inform tbe authorities of the existence of this horrible hashand-ira'p.

HEVEE DO TOO MUCH AT A TIME.
Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, in a leoture re¬ cently delivered, gave the foUowing history of his literary habits:—" Many persons, seeing me BO engaged in active life, and as mnoh about the world as if I had never been a stu¬ dent, have aaid to me,' When do yon get time to write'all your books ? How on earth do you contrive to do so much work ?" I shall surprise you by tbe answer I make. TUe an¬ swer ia this:—'I contrive to do so muoh by never doing too much at a time. A man, to get through work well roust not overwork himself, br if he do too much to-day, the reac¬ tion of fatigue will come, and he will be obliged to do too little to-morrow. Now, since I began really and earnestly to stndy, whieh was not till I had left college, and was actnally in the world, I msy perhaps say I bave gone tbrough aa large a course of general reading as most men of my time. I have travelled moch, and I bave seen mnoh; I have mixed mnoh in politics, and the various business ofllfe; and. in addition to all this, 1 have published some¬ where about sixty volumes, some npon sub¬ jects requiring mnoh research. And what time, do yon think, aa a general mla, I bave devoted to study—to reading and writing ?— Not more than three hours a day; and when Parliament was aitting, not always tfaat. Bnt then, during those hours, I have given my whole attention to what I was about."

Big words are great favorites Vf ith people of email ideas and weak conceptions. They are sometimes employed by men of mind, when tbey wish to use language that may best conceal their thoughts. With few exceptions, however, illiterate and half educated persons nse more *' big words " tban people of thorough education. It is a very common but very egregious mistake to suppose the long words arejnore genteel than short ones—Just as the same sort of people imagine hi-h colors and flashy flgnres improve the style of dress. They are the kind of folks who don't begin, but al¬ ways "commence." They don't live, but " reside." They don't go to bed, but myste- ilonaly " retire." They don't eat and drink, but "partake of refreshments." They are never eick, bot" extreipely indisposed." And instead of dying, at laat, tbey " decease." The atrfingth of the English language is in the abort worda—chiefly monosyllable of .Saxon deriva¬ tion—and people who are in earnest aeldom nse any other. Love, hate, anger, grief, joy, express themselves iu short words and direot sentences; while cunning, falsehood, and afl'ection delight in what Horace calls " vtrha eesqaipedatia"—worda a "foot and a half' long.
