" Well, I declaim! here it i^, Naw Year'8 morning again, nnd coM ad Greeuland, too," said Uucif Jelly, a.< hn pokdd hia cotton uieiu cap oot of I'nd ; "froat an incU tMcfe ou ib« windows, ffater all frozen in tho pitch¬ er, and I an old bachelor. Heigh-ho! no body to ijive auy presents to--uo litlle faet to uouie patting up to my bed to wish m« *A haippy ^'ew Year,' Miserable piece of bu.sines.-i I Wonder what erer beCaime nf thai sister of mine who rau olf with that poor artist ? Wish she'd tarn up somewhere with two or three children for nie to love and pet. Heigh Uo'. It's a miserable piene of business to be an old b.T^heIor.
Aud Uuete Jolly broke tbe i.-« with hiK frost nipped fingers, aud bnttoDed hia dress¬ ing gown tightly to his chin ; then he went dowu stairs, swallowed a cup of cofl'ee, an egg'and a slice of toast. Tben he buttoned his surtout snugly over theiu, and went out of the front dnor inio tbe street.
Such a crowd as tliere way buying New Year's preseut.-^. Tiie toy-shops were fillt)d wily grandpas, grandma.';, and aunis, uncles, aud cousins. Aa to thw shop-keepera, what with telling price.--, answtsring forty questions in a minute, and iloing up parcels, thny were as crazy as a !»atdielor teudiug a oryitig baby.
Uncle Jolly slipped along over the jury pavenuMils, auiJ finally i alted in front of Tim Nonesuch's toy shop. Youshould Imve seeu/it.5 ,-hop windows! liaautiful Kuglish dolls al live dollars a piece, dressed like Queen Vin 's babies, with sucIi plump litlle shoulders auii arms one longed to pinch 'cm; and tea set.s and dinner .¦^eirt, cunning enongh for a fairy to keep house with. Tiien there were dancing Jacks and jmupiug Jeunies. and "Topsies," and " Uucle Tom," as black as the chimney baok, wilh wool made with a raveled black .*;tocking. Then there were little work-boxfs, with gold thimbles and bodkins, and snissors in crimson velvet cases, and snakes tliat squirmed ."^o naturally as to make you hop on the table to get oat of the way, and little innocent looking boxes con-
so 00 help himself. One room was naed sa a gra> ' *° nary, and thedoor was kept carefally cloaed. Tbe old rat ased to bear tb« sound of the grain as it; waa poared upon'the floor, or into the barrela, and a strong deaire posseaaed him to know, from parsonal observation, what was in the room. Bat there was no way for him to gratify that deaire but by makiug a hole throngh an oak board partition. So, one uight, after all was qaiet in the house, ha set himself vigorously aboat the undertaking; and though he" found it rather a jawaching operation, yet he kept up snch an incessant •nibbling, that Iouk before dayjight his task was accomplished, and his hard t<dl waa re¬ warded by a plentiful repast at the pile of grain. For some days aud uighLs he passed in and out at pleasure, and enjoyed high living without let or hindrance. But the proprietor at length discovered the hole which lie bad made through the partition, and at ouce concluded that he would lay an embargo on that sort of fun; so he tlirUst a file iuto the hole.
The aext time the old rat essayed to pass iu he found a slight impediment in hh way, aud he tried iu vain to remove it. At last said his ratship, " I know what I have done. I can guaw off that stick, for it ian't half as thick -as the oak hoard through which I gnawed the bole." So at it he went again. He thought the file was a good deal harder than the board, but he determined not to give it up. Indeed, it was a prominet article in his creed not to back out. '*Ah, a work¬ man is known by his chips," said he, as he looked and discovered iiuite a little pile, that looked very much like ivory saw-dust, thoagh he wondered that his chips should be so light colored. " I shall fetch it yet," said he, aud he applied himself with renew¬ ed vigor.
But at leugth he discovered some blood on the file where he had been gnawing. He instantly clapped his paw to his ble-'diDg month, when behold ! he made this discov¬ ery, that instead of gnawing the file, the file haid actually gnawed his teeth down to the gums. For a momont he stoodquite coufoau- ded. At last he said, "for once I have inTide a fool of myself " And so he had; for he wa.^ not only obliged to go supp^rless to bed, bat what was of vastly raore consequence, he had lost sgood setuf teeth, whioh wouldbe quite

your face as soon as you raiseil the lid, and music boxes to place under your pillows i when you had drank too strong a cup ot green tea, and vinaigrettes that you coiild hold to your nose to keep you from fainting wheu you saw a dandy. 0 ! I can tell you lhat Mr. Nonesuch undeiistood keeping a *oy-shop ; there were plenty of carriages al¬ ways in frout of it, plenty of taper fingers pulling over his wares, and plenty of hus¬ bands and fathers whn returned thanka that New Year don't come every day !
Don't stay here, dear Susy, if it makes you cry," said the elder of two little girls.— " I thoaght yoa said it would make you hap¬ py 10 oome out and look at the New Year's presents, though we couldn't have any."
" I did think so," said Susy ; but it makes me think of the last New Year, when you and I lay cuddled together in our little bedi and papa came creeping up in hia slippers, thinking we were asleep, .^nd laid oar prea¬ ents on the table, and then kissed us both, and said,' God bless the little darlings !' 0! Katy—all the little girla in that shop have their papas with them. I waut my papa," and little Susy laid her head on Katy'a shonlder, and sobbed as if her heart was breaking.
"Don't, dear Susy," said Katy, wiping away her owu tears with her little pinafore ; " don't cry—mamma will see how red your eyes are—poor sick, tried mamma; dou't cry Sasy."
" Oh, Katy, I cau't help it. See that tall man with the black whiskers (don't he look like papa ?) kissing that litlle girl. Oh ! Katy," and the teara flowed afresh.
TIncIe Jolly couldn't stand it any longer.— He rushed iato the toy shop, bought an arm¬ ful of playthings, helter-skelter, and ran aftar the two little girla.
¦ " Here, Susy ! here, Katy!" said he, "here are some New Year'a presents from Uncle' Jolly."
" Who is Uncle Jolly T " Well, he's uncle to all the poor litlle children who have no kind papa."
" Now, where do you live, little pigeons ? got far to go? toes all out of yoar shoes; come in here, aud let's see if we can find anything to cover them. There, now, (fitting them hoth to a pair,) that's something like ; it will puzzle Jack Frost to find your toes now. Cotton clothes on ? I don't wear cot¬ ton clothes ; come in here and get some woolen shawls. Which do you like best— red, green, or blue ? plaid or stripes, hey ?
Mother won't Hke it! don't talk to uie; mothers don't gei'erally scratch people's eyes out for being kind to their little oues. 1=11 take care of that, little puss. Uncle Jolly's going home with you. How do 1 kuow whether you have gol any dinner or not?-— I've gdt a dinner—^j'ou shall have a dinner too. Pity if I can't have my own way—New Year's day tno.
''That your home? phew! I don't know about trusting my old bones up those rickety stairs—old bones are hard to mend ; did you know that?"
ifittlo Susy opeued the door, and Uncle Jolly walked in. Their mamma turned her head, then, wilh one wild cry of joy, threw her arms ahout his neck, while Susy aud Katy stood in the doorway, uncertain whether to laugh or cry.
"Come here, come here," said Uucle Jolly "I didn't know I was so near tbe truth this morning, when I called myself your Uncle Jolly. I <lidn't kuow what made my heart leap up so when I saw you therein the street. Come here, 1 say, I say don't you ever shed another tear ; you see I don't." Aud Jolly tried to smile, aa he drew his coat-eleeve across hia eyes.
"Wasn't lhat a merry New Year's night in Uncle Jolly's little parlor ? Wasn't the fire warm and bright t Were not the tea-cakes nice ? Didu't Uncle Jolly make them eat till they had lightened their apron strings ? Were their toes ever out of their shoes .igain?
Did they wear cotton shawls in Janaary ?
Did cruel landlords ever again make their mamma tremble and cry ?
In the midst of all thia plenty, did they forget "papa?" No, no! Whenever little Susy met in the street a tall, priuoely man, with large black whiskers, she'd look at Katy and nod her Uttle curly head sorrowfully, as much as to say, " Oh, Katy, I never can for¬ get tny own dear papa .'"
Tub Hoxe«t Boy's Eew asd — Two poor boys while on their way to school one morningi fouud a small pocket book, which was well filled with bank notea. Oneof tho hoys said, " We are very lucky in finding so rich a prize, and now we will divide the money in equal sharea betwenaa." "No, "said the other, who was an honest, upright lad; "it is not oars and we have no right to keep it. We will give it to our teacher and he may find out the owner."
And the the honest boy gave it to the teacher, told him where he had got it, and asked him to endeavor to discover the owner. A few daya afterwards the teacher observed notices posted up offering a reward for the recovery of the pooket hook, and accordingly returned it to the boy- that he might take it to the owher,-—^ When the Ud-pres ented it to tke gentleman' who Eadlostit, he was so highlypleas^with his appearanoe and honesty thathe gave him & large Bhare pf its contents, and afterwards proved a goodand nsefol friend. So, beaides the money bis honesty gained him, he also obtained & gopd ificod and establlBhed a good name. --"•'¦
pera. And here we will leave his ratship in order to make an application of the story. Men ought to be wiser thau rata, but they are not, for they also frequently gnaw a fie. A person gnaws a file when, just for the sake of having his own way, be obstinately per¬ sists in doing that which is against hia own intereat—that which injures himself a vast deal more than anybody else.
Here is an iUuatralion : A boy carelessly hit his foot against a stone, and as a natural conseqaence it ached dreadfully. He instant¬ ly made up hia mind that he would h.ive hia revenge. So he sat dowu and went to beat¬ ing the stone with his fist, and he only de¬ sisted when he ceased to feel any pain in his foot, in conseqaence of the severe pain in his bruised knuckles. Now he had his own way—he took hia revenge, but it was gnaw¬ ing a file.
Here is another: a hoy whoae name I feel a little delicate abont mentioning, once got a little grouty at something which his mother reqaired him to do; so wheu he was called to dinner, to ahow his independence, said, with pouting lips "Idon't waut any dinner." Now he waa hungry enough, but he waa determined he would not eat ou( of spite.— He overheard his siater say, " Gneas he'll get hungry by supper time ;" bat he thought within himself, " Yoa'U see." So he nour¬ ished his wrath to keep it warm, and when his sister called him to supper, he grunted out more grouty than ever, " I don't want any supper."
But as he turned to go off he heard hia mother say, " You'll be a cheap boarder at this rate." So he had the blessed satisfac¬ tion of having hia own way, and went sup- perless to bed, where he repented at his leis¬ ure. There he lay and thoaght the matter all over again and again. Hs finally came to the " unanimous conclusion" in his own mind that he was a great fool for having done as he had ; for he had injured no mortal living so much as himaelf. It is almost un- necessary^to add that he had a remarkahle good appetite for breakfast, and that from that he waa of the -unahaken opinion that it was miserably poor policy to gnaw a fie.
We might give illastriations equally per¬ tinent from those of riper years, but we forbear.

Happy ITanoy—The True Secret.
There once lived in an old brown cottage, 80 small that it looked like a ohickea ooop, A solitary woman. She was aome thirty years ofage, tended her little garden, knit aad spaa for a living. She was knowa every¬ where, from village to village, by the cogno¬ men of " Happy Nanoy." She had no money no family, no relatives ; ahe was half blind, quite lame, and very crooked. There wa« no comeliness in her, and yet there, fn that homely, deformed body, the great God, who, loves to bring atrength ont of weakness, had aet hia royal aeal.
" Well, Nanoy, ainging again 1" would the chance visitor say, aa he lounged at her door.
"Lal yea, I'm forever at it. I don't know what people will think;" she woold say with her snnny amile.
" Why, they'll tbink as they alwaya do, that you are very happy."
" I wiah yon*d tell me yoar secret, Nanoy; you are all alone, yoa work ha>d, yoa have nothing very pleaaant surrounding you^— what is the reason yoa're so happy V
" Perhaps its becanse I haven't got nobody but Go>i," replied the good creature looking up. " Y'ou aee, rich folks, like you, depend upon their families aud houses; they've got to keep thinking of their buainess, of their wives and children, they're always mighty afraid of trouble ahead. latn'Cgot anything to trouble myself about, yon see, 'cause I leave it all to the Lord. I think, well, if he can keep this great world in such good order the $un rolling day after day, and the stara shining night after night, make my garden things come up the same, aeason after sea¬ son, ho cao bartainly take care of snch a poor, simple thing as I am ; and so, you see, I leave it all to tbe Lord, and the Lord takea care of me."
" Well, bat, Nancy, suppose a frost should come after your tress are all in blossom, and your little plants out, suppose—"
"But I dou't suppoae; I never oan aup¬ pose; I don't want to suppoae, except that the Lord will do everything right. That's what makes you people so unhappy; you're ail the time supposing. Now why can't yoa wait till the suppose comes, &s I do, aud then make the best of it?"
"Ah! Nancy, it's pretty curtain you'll get to beaven, while many of us with all our wisdom will have to stay out."
" There, you are at it again," aaid Nanoy, shaking her head, "always looking out for aome blaek cloud. Wby, if I was you, I'd keep the devil at arm's length, inatead of taking him right into my heart—he'll do yoa a de.^prit -li^t of mischief."
Sbe was right, we do take the demon of care, of distrust, of melsincholy foreboding, of ingratitude, right into our hearts, and pet aud cherish the ugly monster.^, till we assi¬ milate to their likeness. We canker every pleasure with this gloomy fear of coining ill; We seldom trnst that pleasure will enter, or hail tbem when they come. Instead of that, we smother tliem under the blanket of appre¬ hension and choke them with our misan¬ thropy.
It would be well for ua to imitate happy Nancy, and "never suppose." If yoa see a cloud, don't suppose it's going to rain; if yon see a frown, don't suppose a scolding will follow—do whatever your hands find to do, and there leave it. Be more childlike toward the great Father who created you; leara to confide in his wiadom, and not in yoar owu ; and above all, "wait till the 'suppose'comea, and then make thebest ofit." Depend upon it, tho earth would seem an Eden, if you would follow happy Nancy's rule, and never give place iu yonr bosom to imaginary evils.
Brbad, CoiToa, ASD Cask.-—The harrest il finished, aod car country has. prodaoed th'fi elemennts of food In nnptecedented abnndan- danoe. The cotton orop ofthe year is less, bountifol than.uaual. The oarrenqy of the Qountty is deranged to an extent which has hid no parallel since 1837. Aaslgnmeots are frequent, explosions are namerotiEi, and sua- pensions are the ordor of the day in boainess oiroles. But, in tbe Ungoage of the news¬ papers, " the worst is over;" as it alwaya la ai soon as a financial crash or monetary preasure oommenoea.
Oar consolation is that the " arisia"maygo on the end, do its worst, continne a month or two or a year or two, and then " all will be for the'beat" We shall aorvive. Thecoantry will BtiU Uve. Change will not be in all oaaea a losa, aa exbhange is not always again Revolntion will not be rain.
A few mammoth monetary institationa will "go down," hot will leave their "assets" abovo. Here and there a patriclah "million¬ aire" will be redaced to a more nseful and not lesa happy plebtan. Many merohants and mannfaetarers, who have been apparent¬ ly for years on the high road to wealth, lu tbe way of uninterrupted buainesa proaperi¬ ty, will find tbemseives suddenly bankrupt; and very many of tbe producing classes will anfi'er temporary privation and loss. But the real elementa of general prosperity exist as before. Indeed, they were never so abun¬ dant as at the present time. With a boanti¬ fnl harvest, there is likely to be very little demaud for breadstuffs abroad, hence the "staff of life" must be materially cheapened. Money will be more difficult to get, but, for¬ tunately, we oan do with lesa. Cotton may retain ita preseut high pricea, but with "aomething to eat," we can get along for a while with little or "nothing to wear," aave the presetit stock, and the old garments which American ingenuity knows ao well how to rejuvenate, whenever necessity demands economy.
It would not hart ua much, nay, it would be a perfeot god-send to the people of the United Stntes, if our merohant princes would import less silka, satina, and other auperfiui- ties for a few years. We ahould not suffer at all if theae itema of our national extrava¬ gance ahoald be cut down one hundred mil- lion.i of dollars per anunm
Our unsatisfied appeties, our debts, our poverty, and indeed oar ignorance, if not our very vices, originate mainly from needless extravagance. We create artificial wants, and then toil incessantly to gratify them.- The laboring millions are worked to death prematurely, and the non-producing idlers are rusted out in their prime, because all classes are aeeking to satiafy demanda not founded In uatnre, and gratify deaires known ouly to falae habita and social abuses.
Who could helieve, without a careful in¬ vestigation of tbe subjeci, that the whole proporty of the oivilized world is suuk, de stroyed, once in every generation, by mere extravagance I Yet this Is literally trup.— Tho real and personal property of these United Statea, which may be reckoued at some fifteen or twenty billions, have actually to bo produced, oreated as it were, ouco in thirty years t And all thia becauae we are contending againat nature, and quarreling with ourselves.
Tho hope of the world lies iu the correction of thia great error. When mankind cease expending their energies for the accomplish¬ ment of that which never satisfies, and for the gratification of desjreji which are forever begetting othera as morbid as themselves, they will have availablo mind, and time, and power to renovate and elevate the world, and achieve the true destiny of humanity.

Wuv LS It ?—Although the caption to this articlt) iri an iuterrogatary to any and evflry subject, yet rro do not intend to deal in gfin- eralities at this time, but to confine the ques¬ tion to a case of casuistry in a specified seuse. We often have to record the fact that some one possessing the confidence of a whole community for years, ffnally is dis¬ covered iu being a dishonest aud unfaithful agent. He has been, withoat stint, using moneys and credit, placed in his hands for other purpose.s,lo his own use and advantage ; but at last the fraud is exposed, and he then is suddenly taken ill—very ill, aud his heart is broken—becomes much depressed under the truth—that he is unfit for everythiug bnt mourn and lament bis downfall. Now our question is to this end. How mnch has conscience and penitence to do with the case ? And this begets another query : Did the man's conscience whip him doring these long months, or years, of duplicity aud dis¬ honesty, or only when the fact of his de- licqueucy is divulged ? He keeps in good sjiirits, attepds to his regular business—goes lo church rtjgularly—prob.ably is prominent in making " long prayers"—takes an active part in most of the benevolent institutions —gives freely of his charity—eats well and sleeps soundly, and no oue ever dreams of his hypocracy until be is exposed, and then all at once, he is iu au agony. Now up comes anotlier qnestion : Is his sorrow on account of his siu, or only its exposure ?
A case iu point has just occurred iu Phil¬ adelphia, where oue of the most highly es¬ teemed persons, for his Christian deport- ment and business talent, of any in the com¬ munity, lias been charged with using the money and credit of the institution in which he had almost plenary control for thirty long years, to the enormous extent of eighty- eight thousaud dollare, but never manifested any expressions of aorrow until his frauds werediscoverdd: The only answer we can give is thatthe man has been deceived by a " heart deceitful above all things aud desper¬ ately wioked." Snch a, man deserves the sympathy of his fellows, not for his nnlaw- fal acts, bat for his moral depravity. He commits one offense, but will not allow his conscience to *'work well ita part," and then another, still keeping . this easUy controlled monitor quiet until the oft repeated dosea of narcotics puts it to sleep soundly, and then the raan is left to work out Ws owu destruc¬ tion with greediness.

The namber of titlea amouut to 3,768, and on these have been issued 24,398 patents, which with the exoep¬ tion of 517 granted to foreigu countries, have been applied for by citizeus or residents of this country.

Faildee of Mncoixs—So-mething fir the Crisis.—Muggins has failed. He got' in a tight place, hypothecated everything in his pos'session down to his bootjack and umhrella, and finally retreating to the npper story of the tenement he occupied, took a at^nt rope, attaohed it to a strong rafter and deliberatly suspended paymenta, and himself at the same time out of the window, by shinning rapidly down into the back yard, and made off at a ronnd rate jnst as has land Iady~^two lallors, and bis washerwoman came up stairs to break in the door of his apartmenta.
He retreated to the elevater of one of our warehouses, thongh he ultimately hopes to pay his creditors ten cents apiece as soon aa he sells his "exchange " (he has an unpaid hiU in New York city to which he fondly gives that title.) In the meantime fae iu writing a pamphlet, urging the formation of "a General Suspension and Anti-Paying Debta Union," He haa sent ua hia articles of agreement, one of whioh ia that the fee of ten dollars be "charged to" all new members, whoae stand¬ ing is to b« forfeited if tho fee ia by any In¬ advertency paid.
Then thero aie several provisions, oneof which sininte toward a retum to the Sabbat¬ ic year, upon which Muggins himaelf- olnima to have already experimentally entered.— He tella na in afoot note, thatatwelvettonth intercalated just now, making aU ooUaotiona and bUBiueas transactions illegal *nd. void during three hnndred and sixty-fiT« days ani aix honra, ia just what the community need. Perbapa itia. We look upon Mng- giBB «a "sventually gdod."—caicajo Pmi.
Caheful Hakdlino—Mankind oouaists of two grand divisions,—the careless aud care¬ ful. Each individual may ba assigned hia place under these two great heads by observ¬ ing how he picks or g.Tther3 fruit. The care¬ less ahake the orop dotvn on tho ground, or if picked by hand, throw the specimens into the basket, rather than carry and deposit them carefully. When thoy empty a basket into a barrel or bin, the fruit is poured in ao tumnltuoualy as to sound at a di^-tance some¬ thing like thunder. Such persona "wonder" why they have ''auch poor luck" in keeping frutt—it uearly all rota prematurely. Tlie way in whioh R. h. Pell haa his Newtown pippina gathered is ono great reason of his success and high profits iu foreign markets. His men gather tho applea by means of hook¬ ed baskets suspended in the tree—tho ap- pies, as gathered, are laid one at a time in the bottom of the basket, and when fllled the man comes down and places two at a timo in the two bushel basketa. To prevent the possibility of bruising, these are dr,awn to the fruit house on a sled by oxen, aud two apples only at a tirae aro taken out till all are carefully deposited on tho floor When barreled they are drawn on a sled to the river and are carried, not rolled, on board the steamer; when shipped for England, one barrelJs hoisted at a time aud canght on a man's shoulder at the ship, and carried by two men and deposited io their plaee. When again unloaded the same care is observed, the barrels being oarried off on a hand bar¬ row. Throughout the whole process the same care is observed as in carrying a look¬ ing glass. " Thia is taking too mmih trouble by all odda," exclaims so'mo careless peraon who would prefer the decay of his applet, and the losa of hia nett profits iu market, to the greatly dreaded "trouble" of being care¬ ful. He uan have his own choice in the matter; but it is hardly worth while to plant or raise trees and then throw away their prodncts.—Country Oentleman.
The Reasosixg of Bhdtes.—The following anecdotea of " onnning animals" indicate the existence of something more than a " bliud instinct" in the sense in whicii we an* accua¬ tomed to understand the phrase.
The Bnmfriea (Scotland) Courier aays a gentleman iu the Highlands sent the editor of that paper the following note :
A gamekeeper ou tbe eatate near Lochawu, who had beeu annoyed by the depredationa of foxes, discovered a kennel in the glen at tho side of a small loch. Wliile watching ono eveuing for the appearance of the tenants, he observed a brauH of wild ducks floating on the lock. In a litlle while a fox was seen approaching the water side with oautioua steps; on reaching it, he picked up a bunch of heather, and placed it in his mouth so aa to cover hia head; then slipping into the waler and immersing all but his nose, boated alowiy and quiotly down to where the' birda were quacking ont delight in fancied security aeeing nothing near them but a bunch of weed. Indue" timo he neved the ducks, dropped the heather and seized a dnok, with whioh he retamed to the loch side, and waa making off to his yonng with the prize, when the keeper, who had noted all his movementa, closed them by the discharge of his dtuble- barrol. Snrely auoh sagacity deserved a bet. ter fate.
Franconi, director of the Hippodrome in Paris, and the famous artist iu horaemanship haa trained a horae with great oare to feign being aeverely wonnded, and go limping baok to his place.

Such a crowd as tliere way buying New Year's preseut.-^. Tiie toy-shops were fillt)d wily grandpas, grandma.';, and aunis, uncles, aud cousins. Aa to thw shop-keepera, what with telling price.--, answtsring forty questions in a minute, and iloing up parcels, thny were as crazy as a !»atdielor teudiug a oryitig baby.
