I was called ou one day in my office, in the towu of C , by a very pretty woman, who, not without tears, told me her husband had been arrested for horsestealing. She wished to retain toe on the defence. I asked her why she did not go to Jndge B., an ex-sonator of the United States, whose ofiice was in the same town. I told her that I was a young man at the bar, &c. She moornful- ly said that he had asked a retaining fee above her means, and besides did not want to tonch the case, for bar husbaud was sus¬ pected of belonging to an estensive baud of horse-thieves and counterfeiters, whose head¬ quarters were on Moore's prairie. I asked her to tell me whole truth of the matter, and if it was true that her husband did belong to sueh a band.' "All, sir," said she, "a belter man at heart thau my George never lived; but he liked cards and driuk, and I am afraid they made him do what he never would have done if he had drank. I fear lhat it canbe proved that he had the horse ; he didn't steal it; another did, and passed it to him." I didn't like the case. I knew that tbere was a great dislike to the gang located where she named, and feared to risk the case be¬ fore a jury. She seemed to observe my in¬ tention to refuse the case, and burst into tears. I never could see a woman weep without feeling like a weak fool myself. If it hadn't been for eyes brightened by "pearly tears," (blast the poets that made them to come in fashion by praising 'em,) I'd never havebeen caught in the lasso of matrimony. And my would-be client was pretty. The handkerchief tbat hid her streaming eyes didn't bide her ripe lips, and her snowy bosom rose and fell Hke a white gull in a gale of wind at sea. I toot the case and she gave me the particulars. The gang, of whioh he was not a member, had persuaded him to take the horse. He knew the horse was stolen, and like a fool acknowledged it when he was arrested.— Worse still—he had trimmed the horse's tail and mane to alter his appearance, and the opposition could prove it. The tail came on. I worked hard to get a jury of ignorant meu, who had more heart than brain; who, if they could not fathom the depths of argnment, or follow the labyrin¬ thine mazes of tbe law, could feel for a yonng fellow in a bad fix, a weeping, pretty wife, nearly broken-hearted and qnite distracted. Knowing the use of "effect," I told her to dress in deep mourning, and bring her little cherub of a boy, only three years old, into conrt, and to sit as near her husband as the officer would let her. I tried that game once in a murder case, and a weeping wife and sister made a jory render a verdict against Jaw, evidence and the judge's charge, and saved a fellow that ought to have been hang as high as Haman. The prosecution opened very bitterly ; in¬ veighed agaiust thieves and counterfeiters, who bad made the land a terror to strangers and travellers, aud who had robbed every farmer in tfae region of their finest horses.— It introduced witnesses, and proved all and more than I feared it would. The time came for ine to rise for defence. Witnesses I had none. But I determined to make an effort, only hoping so to interest llie judge and jury as to secnre a recommendation to gubernatorial clemency and a light sen¬ tence. So I painted this picture : A young man eutered into life, wedded to an augel; beautiful in person, possessing every gentle and noble attribute. Temptation was before and all around him. He kept a tavern.— Guests there were many; it was not for him to inquire iuto their business; they were well-dressed; made large bills and paid promplly. At an unguarded hour, wheu he was insane with the liquor Ihey urged upon him, he had deviated from the path of recti¬ tude. The demon of alcohol had reigned in his brain; and it was his first offence. Mercy pleaded for another chauce to save him from ruin. Justice did uot require that his young wife should go down sorrowing to the grave, and lhat the shadow of di.igrace and the taunt of a felon father should cross the path of that sw«et child. 0, how earnestly did I plead for them. Tl)e woman wept; the hus¬ band did the same; the judge fidgeted and rubbed his eyes ; the jury looked melting.— If I conld have had the closing speech he would have been cleared; bnt the prosecutor had the close, and threw ice on the fire I had kindled. Bat tbey did uot quite pat it out. { The judge charged according to law and evidence, bnt evidently leaned on the aide of mercy. The jury found a verdiot of guilty, but unanimously recommended the priaoner to the mercy of the court. My client waa sentenced to tbe shortest imprisonment the court was empowered to give, and both jury and court signed a petition to the govemor focan unconditional pardon, which has sinoe been granted, but not before the following incident occurred: Some three months after this, I raceived an account for collection from a wholesale house iu New York. The parties to collect from were hard onof, but they had^property, and before they had an idea of the*trap laid, I had the property, which they were about to assign before they broke under attachment. Finding I was neck ahead and hound to win they " caved in" and led the assailant. One offered me a segar wbich I reluctantly refused, but a glance from the woman induced me to accept. She advanced aud proffered me a light, and in doing so slipped a note into my haud, which she must havo written a moment before.— Never shall I forget tha words. They were: " Beware, tliey are members of the gang.— Tbey mean to rob and murder you ! Leave soon; I will detain them !" I did not feel comfortable juyt then, but tried do so. " Have you any room to put up my horse?" I asked, turning to the woman. "Wbat—are you not going on to-night?" asked ono of the men ; we are." " No," said I, " I shall stay here to-night." "We'U all stay then, I guess, and make a night of it!" said another oftbe cut-throats. '• You'll have to put up your own horse— here's a lauiern," said the woman. " I am used to that," I said. " Geutlemen excuse me a minute; I'll join you in a drink when I come in." " Good ou your head! More whiskey old gal," shouted they. I went out, glanced at their wagou ; it was old-fashioned, and " linch pins" secured tbe wheels. To take out my knife and pry oue from the fore and hind wheels was but the work of an instant, and I threw them as far off in the darkness as I could. To untie my horse and dash off was the work of a mo¬ menta The road lay down a steep hill, but my lantem lighted me somewhat. I had hardly got under full headway, when I heard a yell from the party I had so un¬ ceremoniously left. I put whip to my horse. I threw my light away, and I left my horso to pick his way. A moment later I heard a crash—a horrible shriek. The wheels were off. Then came the rush of the horses tear¬ ing along with the wreck of the wagon.— Finally tbey seemed to fetch up in tbe wood. One or two shrieks I hoard as I swept on^ leaviug them far behind. For some time I hurried my horse—^you better believe I "rid!" It was a litttle after midnight wheu I got to Mount Vernon. The nest day I heard that a Moore's Prairie team had run a^ay, and that two men out of four had beeu so badly hurt that their lives were despaired of; but I didn't cry. My clients got tbeir money; aud I didu't travel tbat road any more. ir they were abandoned by their natural : ^"""^ >"=« "^ ""S^^'^ '"^'-S-glass. Is it not ,.

Do you suppose we were all teamsters or horse jockeys ? No such thing. If he heard one cursing and swearing, or given to,much vain and foolish talk, "Tbat man has lost his bridle," he would aay.— Without a bridle the tongue, though a little member, " boasteth great things." It is "an unruh evil, full of deadly poisou." Put a bridle ou and it is one of the best servants the body and soul have. " I will keep roy mouth with a bridle," said King David, and who cau do better than follow his example ? Wheu my grandfather saw a man drinking and carousing, or a boy spending all his money for cakes and candy,' " Poor fellow," he would aay, " he's left off his bridle." The appetite needs a reining; let it loose, and it will run you to gluttony, drunkeness, and all sorts of disorders. Be sure and keep a bridle on your appetite ; don't let it be master. Aud don't neglect to have one for your pas¬ sions. They go mad if they get unmanage¬ able, driving you down a a blind and head¬ long course to ruin. Keep the check-rein tight; dou't let it slip ; hold it steady. Nev¬ er go without your bridle, boya. That was the bridle my grandfather mean^ —the bridle of self-goverment. Parenta try lo restrain and check their children, and you can generally tell by their behavior what childreu have such wise and faithful parents. But parents cannot do everything. Aud some children have no parents to care for them. Every boy must have his own bridle and every girl mnst have hers ; they must learn to check and govern themselves. Self- gorernmeut is the most difficult and most important government in the world. It be¬ comes easier every day if you practice it with steady and resolute will. It is the fountain of excellence. It is the cutting and pruning wbich makes the noble and vigorous tree of character. Learn all tod Cas.—Somebody has given the following excellent advice, which is wor¬ thy of beiug treasured up by everybody : "Never omit auy opportunity to learn alt you can. Sir Walter Scott said, eveu iu a atage-coach he always fonud somebody to tell him somethiog he did not know before. Conversation js generally more useful than books for the purpose of knowledge. It is therefore, a mistake to be morose or silent, when you are among persous whom you think ignorant; for a litlle sociability on yoor part will draw them out, and they willbe ablo to teach you something, no matter how ordinary their employmeut. Indeed, some of the most sagacious remarks are made by persona of thia description, respecting their particular pursuit. Hngh Miller, the famous Scotch geologist, owes not a little to the fame of observations made when he was a journeyman stone-mason, and worked in a quarry. Socrates well said that there is bat one good, which is knowl¬ edge, and but one evil, which is ignorance. Every grain of sand helps to make the heap. A gold-digger takes the smalest nuggets, and is not fool enongh to throw them away becanse lie hopea to find a huge lump some time. So, in acquiring knowledge, we should never despise an opportunity, however an in some secure corner elsewhere. But how, we may well aak, was it possible for snch a weak, tender littlo creature to combat such a powerful, mail-clad giaut ? What power had she to do anything whioh could aubject the monster to even the slightest inconve¬ nience or molestation ? Her ordinary resort, that of fettering and binding hor victim by throwing her threads of cobwebs around it, it is plaiu, would be of no more avail here than the cords upon the limbs ofthe unshorn Samson. Aware that ber accustomed mode of attack was useie.ss, how did she acquire the knowledge and sagacity requisite for devising another adapted so exactly to the case in hand—onedependiog upon tho struc¬ ture and habits of the serpent, to aid in ren¬ dering it successful ? How was she able to perceive that it waa in her power to wind a loop of her threads around thia creature's throat, despite of all his endeavors to foil heriu this work—a loop of sufiicient strength to hold him securely, notwithstanding his struggles aud writhings, until, by her tackle-like power she could gradually boist him from the floor, thus lit¬ erally hanging him by tbe ueck until he waa dead ? For this was tha feat which this adroit little heroine actnally performed—a faat beside which all the fabled exploits of Hercules, in overpowering lions and serpents and dragons sink into utter insignificance 1 Aud who can say that, in the planning and execution of this stupendous achievement, there was not forethought, reasoning, a care¬ ful weighing of all the difficulties and dangers and a clear perception in tbe mind of this little creature that she possessed the abiUty to accomplisb what she undertook; in short au exercise of faculties of a much higher or¬ der than the mere instinct which is common¬ ly supposed to guide and govern these lower animals iu their movements ? By what artifice the spider was able in the first of its attack to accomplish what it did we can only conjecture, as its work was not discovered until the most diffi.cult and daring part of its feat had heen performed. When first seen it had placed a loop arouud the neck of the serpent, from tbe top of which a single thread was carried upward, and at¬ tached to the under side of the shelf, where¬ by the head of tho serpent was drawn up about two inches from the floor. The snake was moving around aud around inces¬ santly iu a circle as large as its tether would allow—wholly unable to get its head down to the floor or to withdraw it from the noose; while the heroic littla spider, exulting, no doubt, in the success of ils exploit, which was DOW sure beyond a peradventure, was over and anon passing down to the loop and up to the shelf, adding thereby an additional strand to the thread, each of which new strands being tightly drawn, elevated the head of the snake gradually moro and more. But the most carious and akillfal part of its performance is yet to be told. When it waa iu tbe act of running down the thread to the loop, the reader will perceive it was posaible for tho snake, by turning its head vertically npward, to snap at and seize tbe spider in its mouth. This had, no doubt> been repeatedly attempted in the earlier part of the conflict; but, instead of catching the spider, hia snakesbip had ouly caught him¬ self iu an additional trap. The spider prob¬ ably by watching each opportunity when the mouth of tbe snake had baen turned towards her, adroitly, with her hind legs, as when throwing a thread around a fly, had thrown one thread after another over the mouth of the snake, so lhat he was now perfectly muz¬ zled; by a series of threads placed over it vertically, and these were held from being pushed asunder by another series of threads placed horizontally, as my informant states he particularly observed. No muzzle or wicker work for the moutb of an animal could be woven with more artistic regularity and perfectiou; and the snake occasionally makiug a deaperate attempt to open his mouth, would merely pot these threads upou , a stretch. The snake continued his gyrations, his gait becoming more slow, however, from weakness and fatigue; and the spider con¬ tinued to movo down and up to the oord, gradually shortening it, until at last, when drawn up so far that only two or three inches of tha end of his tail touched the floor, the snake expired, about six days after he was first discovered. A more heroic feat than that which thia little spider performed is, probably, nowhere upon record—a snake a foot in length hung by a oommon house spider I Truly, the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong 1 And this phenomenon may serve to indicate to us that the intelligence with which the Creator has endowed the humblest, feeblest of his creatures, is ample for enabling them to triumph in any emergency in Svhioh He places them, if Ibey but exercise the faculties He has given thera. It ia ooly the slothful, cowardly, timorous, that fail, and they fail not so much before their enemies as before their own anpineness. " Step up higher—look ninety rods be¬ yond," thought I, as I silently listened to this converaatiou. How many times we have wished people would step up higher aud look beyond ! When w« see a young man wast¬ ing hia time in loafing about tho streetsj lounging in bar-rooms,beer-saloons, and bow¬ ling alleys, smoking cigars, chewing tobacco swearing, and using obscene language, we want to whisper loudly in his ear to step up higher, cultivate his mind, regenerate his al¬ most dead prostituted talents, give up his pernicious physical practices, aud take care of his body as well as his soul—to look be¬ yond his preaent gratification, anrl catch a glimpse of tbe glories of the world of good actiona, and feel the warmth of the sunshine of a pure heart and clear conscience. When we see men spend all their lime aud energies to get money, at the "sacrifice of all that makes life worth having, we aay, Step j up higher,—look ninety rods beyobd. j Hygiene' w the''Means of Pbrsemiiff ¦'^¦^- Health.

I shall confine myself tp no regular set series of observation, but wander belter-skel¬ ter, just as the humor takes me—from the light, ludicrous and amusing, io the serious, solemu and useful—promising that the sole incentive to these essays ia to pass benefici¬ ally some leisure time. As the objeot of thaseremarks is to be use¬ ful, as far aa their intrinsio valne warrants, to the whole community, leamed and unlearned, they will be worded in a plain, homely style, aa frt-e as the nature of such subjeots will allow from all technioal phraaeology and scientific obscurity aa is possibly praotible. As man haa always usurped the title of the *' lord of creation," in my opinion a misnomer, the falsity of which oan easily be proved, so that all will subscribe to the converse of the dogma, and only allow that " man is and ftlways has been the slave to the nobleat, the best and the purest of God's work—woman." Then out of the regular order, giving her the precedence, I commenoe with what is nearest and dearest to all women, her children, more especially as this is the season peculiarly fa¬ tal to infants. I then propound the query : " /* cow^s milk a proper and safe food for infants ?" A land flowing with milk and honey is the depictured representation of Palestine, whioh doubtless at that period of time, from the purity of the grasses growing on the virgin ¦oil, never upturned by the plow, supplied the cow with a sweet nourishing diet, where¬ by the milk was pure, heaUhy and nutritious, but since that day the earth haa hy severe and constant cultivation been partiaUy de¬ prived of its prolific properties, aud in many instances the cows instead of getting the sweet, juicy, and nourishing grasses, fit to form pure milk, have a scanty subsistence often and generally of sour grapes or noxious weeds. Uniformity and regularity of diet ia condu¬ cive to the health of infants ; all knew the vulgar adage, "That what a child is used to, it fattens on." The milk of no two cowa is precisely alike!! The milk of no cow on two consecutive days is thesame.'.'.' Chemi¬ cally it varies far more than would be sup¬ posed. In somo cows it is rich and thick—iu others poor and watery ; generally its good or bad quality is dopHudent on the aliment, —^yet more important, still cows are often diseaaed, when of necessity the milk must be greatly deteriorated in ita nutritious qua¬ lity or eveu rendered positively poisonous. That eatiug tho fleah or drinking the milk, —or even breathing the same air, has been attended with derangement of the human frame—actually communicating the same diaease, often rapidly ending in death, is con¬ clusively proved by referring lo the histories of the,diffarent Episootys or Murrains which have destroyed at various times myriads of cattle, beginning with the plague sent on all A WomanWhd Shonld Kot be a Wife.

There is a lady of our acquaintance, yet_ living at no great distanort from tbis city, who is worthy to be a member of the same family. Rich and childless, with no great talents or desire for sooiety, her house is her hobby, and cleanli¬ ness a monomania. Room by room she has abandoned her luxurions mansion to silence, darkness aud slip-covers, and permits herself the use only of the basement, from the half open door of which she cau keep an eye upon tbe servants, and issue suddenly out upon them in constant little forays, pouncing up- ¦ on a litter or a speck of dust with tl.e bitter- ; est exultation, aud predicating the destruction ; of the world, and dislocation of all socialities : upou a discolored dishcloth. 1 Not long since she discharged a chamber- \ maid, who had lived with her six years, \ because the dirty wretch did not gather ber petticoats around ber, coming down stairs, but actually permitted them to brush against tbe wall in her descent, a course of conduct which must inevitably result, sooner or later, in tbe paint beiug utterly disfigured. The husband, poor fellow, was foraerly a florid, hearty, jovial fellow, of a decidedly social turn. To-day he passes you in the street with a nervons half nod of recognition, for fear you may remember where he lives, and call; wben undoubtedly you would bring mud into the hall, ou your boots ; or bang your damp hat ou the polished hat stand ; or lay Mrs. B, under the necessity of lighting up the *'tabooed" parlor ; or commit, or procure to be committed, aorao otber enormity, from wbicb the house would uot recover GEO.

The powers of resistance posses¬ sed by some Uttle cbildren are truly extraordi¬ nary ; be careful not to arouse tbem. A spirit of antagonism is most dangerous, and, once awakened, may never again become dormant througb life; once let a child conquer you, and it will never forget the lesson. Let your commands, then, be few; and insist on obedience to them. Fastixg.—A degreee of abatemioaanesR is, by al! reasonable persous, allowed tobe favora¬ ble to mental effort, bnt an occasional fast is also found, in certain conatitutiona, to invigo¬ rate botb mind and body. It aeema to give time for the fnnctionSto complete their wort, and tben to reat for a while. Fasting, for a moderate period, diminishes the carbon in the blood, and thua prevents drowsiness, while promoting a free circulation of highly vitalized blood tbrough the brain; and as on this kind of aapply the ready power of the mind depends, a clearness and rapidity of perception may reasonably be espected under suoh circumstances, provided tbemnscles are not much in demand. Those who by mental habit can take advantage of thie state may attain, the highest ecstasy of meditative ab¬ straction. Probably the greater number of persona who think tbemseives morally aud physically in health, would find how greatly they are mistaken if they could bat be in¬ duced to bring their appetitea more into sub¬ jection, and wait for something like urgent demand for nourishment before they indulged in eating. Instead of submitting to custom, and regularly resorting to tbe table three or four times a day for the mere gratification of tbe palate, the wise plan would be sometimes completly to break through tbe habit, and enjoy tbe quickening power of a rational will triumphing over animal appetite. Thna health of body and mental fortitude, which together conatitute the best assurance of Ib- telleotual power, may be equally promoted. stance to, in extraordinary cases, a deadly poison, a depraved fluid, incapable of supply¬ ing tbo necessary natriraent to sustain the health and promote the crowth of the infant. The conclusion we come to then, ia, that milk, especiaUy tho pale, thin, purple milk obtained in the larger cities from cows fed on slops from the breweries and distilleries, ia an unhealthy diet for Infanta, and often if it doea not engender a scrofulona diathesis, it causes the Mvolvement of strumous, apthous, scorbutic or any otber diseased action depend¬ ent on hereditary taint, but even in casea where there is no natal prediapoaition to diseased action it often produces a cathetic or wasting state, arising from depravity of the circQlating fluids of the infant from inadequate, unhealthy and impure nutri¬ ment. Itia aquerynot easily to be answered, if tho milk, aaid to be manufactured so largely in the cities from ohalk, gum, water-and sugar, is not far more harmless, nutritious and healthy for infants, than tbe milk uaually obtuned from alop fed cows. C. R. Tbere is a young lady dowu town so exces¬ sively modest, tbat every nigbt before retir¬ ing, she closes the window curtaina, to pre¬ vent the "man in the moon" from looking In. Sbe is related to the young lady who would not allow the Christian Observer to remain in her room over night. The Spider and thk Toad.—The foilowiug singular relation is furnished by a corres¬ pondent of the Boston Traveler, as having been witnessed by a person now living, thongh occurring about forty yeara ago, and sixteen miles from that city : " The narrator aaid that while walking in the field, he saw 3 large field spider, considered of tbe most venomous speciea, contending with, a com¬ mou sized toad. The spider being very quick in its movements, would get npon the back of the toad and bite it, when the toad with ita fore paw would drive off the apider. It wonld then hop to a plantain, which waa growing near by, and bite it, and tben retum to the spider.—After seeing this repeated several times, and noticing tbat each time tbe toad was bitten it went to the plantain, the apectator thonght he would pull up the plantain and watch the resnit. He did so. ' Being again bitten, and the plantain.not to be found, tbe toad soon began to swell and sbow other indications of you. The brothers said it was difficult to get. anybody to do the job, and not be meddling, with the secrets in that Uttle closet; we have lost the key, and cannot find it to lock the door. I assured them that you could be de¬ pended on." " Depended ou I" said she." " I guess I can." "My poor dead and gone husband, who be¬ longed to the Free Masons, or Anti-Masons, I don't know whicli, used to tell me all tbe j secrets of the concern, aud when he showed ; all the marks the gridiron had made whenhe was initiated, and told me how they fixed j poor Morgan, I never told a living soul to : this day. If nobody troubles your closet to j find oat yoursecrets tiU I do, they'll lay there till they rot—they will." "I thought so," said the guardian, now I want you to commeuce in that coruert ; and give tbe whole room a deceut cleaning, i and I have pledged ray word and honor for i your fidelity to your promiae ; now dou't go | into that closet;" and then left the lady to herself. j No sooner had sbe beard the sound of bis foot upon the last step of tbo stairs than she i exclaimed " Don't go into that closet 1 I'll i warrant tbere is a gridiron, or somo nonsense,! just like the Anti-Mason for all the world ^ I'll be bound. I will just take .i peep ; no- I body will be auy wiser, as I cau keep it to ; myself. Suiting the action to the word, she stepped | lightly to the forbidden closet—turned the ; button—wbiob was no sooner done, tban bab! went the billy goat, with a.ipring to re¬ gain his liberty, which came near upsetting ¦ her ladyship. Botb atarted to the door, hut it waa filled with implements forhouse clean¬ ing, and all were swept to the bottom of tbe stairs. Tbe noise and confasion occasioned by such unceremonious getting down stairs, drew balf tbe town to witness Mrs. K's efforts to get from nnderthe pile of pails, tubs, brooms and brushes into tho atreet. - Wbo ahould be the first on the spot but the rascally doorkeeper, who, after releasing the goat, which was a cripple for life, and uplitt' SLATE ROOFING.

By digitizing the years 1834-1872, patrons are provided with a view of politics and events of this tumultuous period from a liberal political slant, providing balance to the more conservative perspective of the Intelligencer-Journal, which was recently digitized by Penn State. |
