GSAY SKIES: AND A WAY TO BRIGHTEN THEM. Seated together iu a pleasant parlor, in. the appoininieuts of wbich everything betokened comfort, not uumiapled with elegance, were two ladies. The } oiinger, wbo had not reach¬ ed lhe meiidiaii -of life, bore in her ronnded form, and classically regular features, eviden¬ ces of great youthful beauty,hallowed, lather than dimmed, by the ten years thut had passed since she stood a bride at llie altar. Bixt np¬ ou those fair-featuros there rested a shadow, indefinable, yet plainly there ; tho bright eye had a liuge of melancholy mingling with its mosl cheerful i;'3uce, and the liuely-chiseled mouth, beautiful ia its repose, looked as ifit had forgotteu how lo smile. Yet very fair appeared Lucy S-.-lwyn to tbe eye of hermore advanced companion, as tbey" sal iu tbat pleasant parlor ou tbe bright May moruing! Mrs, Brown was possibly twenty years older than her fiiend, but witb ont* of tbose bright* cheery faces, that the band of age uever robrJ of the light of a youthful spirit. Wrinkles there were, if you should search for tbem—- ciow's-feet about the eyes, .ind deeper lines grooved iu tbe broad forehH.id, but the cheer¬ ful light that danced upon the whole coaule- nance so vailed them in beauty, that few ever noted the footprints whicb tbe years had left in passing. At the feet of Mrs. Selwyn was a paper ;— sbe had been reading aloud, from it, one of tbose fugitive pieces, which come, -with their glimpses of domestic life, like golaen lessona to the heart. The piece was headed, ''The Rift in the Cloud," and as she fiuisbed it, sbe bad allowed tbe paper to drop carelessly from ber ban^3,esclaiming, "Never were written truer words tbau are thosa I" There was a tinge of bitterness in tbe ex¬ pression of these words that caused Mrs. Brown to look up from the -work on wbicb sbe was engaged, when, in response to her look of inquiry, Mrs. Selwyn continued: "It mfly seem strange to yon to listen to sncb words from me, yet Mrs. Brown, my bome is very difierent from tbe ideal ofmy girlhood ; 1 bavo seen, one by one, the bright visions I bad cherished fade out before ,the stern experieuce of the wife; in short, I no longer disguise from myself that my bome is not a happy oue." " And yet, Lucy, yoa bave no clouda to shadow your path; no storms lo distress you- Without anxieties for tbe preseut; with a busband whose pride it is to make your bome comfortable, and children whom it shonld be a boly joy to train—with these, and to crown aud brighten all, the Christian's bope in yonr heart, your boqjjB should be happy !" " Others think so," was the sadjy-spokeu reply, "and maoy perhaps envy me ; I have, as you say, no storms to breast, but to carry out your figure, my skies bave lost their once bright tints, and are robed Ju cheerless gray, aud 1 move beneath tbem Uke one from wbose heart tbe sunlight ia shut out!" " Opeu your beart to me, my dear Lucy," said Mrs. Bruwn, iu a tone of the deepest af¬ fection—"lam au old woman now, and bave, iu my day, experienced mauy changing skies —the sunbright, tbo stormy, yes, tbe cold, dull gray, as well—and my «txperieuce may be able to suggest a way of scattering the mists lhat hide the sunbeams fffem your beart." " Weli," repHed liucy, taking up tlij pa¬ per wbich bad fallen at her feet: " this littlo sketch portrays just wbat I for years have feit—the unappreciated d«votion for a wife— my husband never commends me, and I am made to feel tbat, in bis eyes, I am deficient iu everything. Ho speaks in commendation of olbers,-and bis praise of ihem culs^io my¬ beart, eo mnch do I covet it for myself, but covet it in vain ; indeed, I no longer expect bis praise." " Lucy," said her friend, in a low voice, " excuse me, if I tell^you that the fault is your own. If you can bear to be truly dealt witb, I will show you whence the gray mists come, aud a way to disperse tbem too." " Tbe fault is mine ?—and this from you Mrs. Brown 1 But go on; I will listeu duti¬ fully." "No, Lucy, I had better bo silent, thau have you listen iu suck a spirit; jyou have long proved my love, and should know tbat I would not be unkind, and yet tbe only way to help you is one that may give you paiu." " Forgive my pettishness, my dear friend. I do know tbat your heart ia kindness itself, bnt I am so wearied with blame, tbat my spirit rises against it, however kindly meant." *'I bave noticed it, Luoy; you love your hnsband so well, that you wiah him to be blind to every defect; you cannotbear tbe expression of dissatisfaction, but would de¬ light in the approbation of oue so dear to you. Tbis I know, but your busband does not, for your conduct to him is tbe reverse of what you expect from^him." " No, Mrs. Brown, you do me wrong I" "Do you ever praise your husbaud!" "Praise him ! No ; he doea not waut my praise." . " Do you never censure him ?" " I do find fault, sometimes, but how can I belp it, when be is so unreasonable as he often is!" *'You, then, withhold praise,^and bestow censure upon your husband; these things of whioh you complain in bim, make, yon say your home-skies gray — have you never thought that the efiect might be the same on kiml'' Keoeiving no reply, Mrs. Brown continued; " During the montb I have now beea under yoor roof, I have aeldom aeen you hasten to meet your husband on his return, as if bis coming bronght a pleasnre with it; I have noticed that tometimes the first worda he has keard from the lips of his wife, after a whole *• Can thia, indeed, beso!" exclaimed Luoy, in astonishment; "1 had Hupposad that yours was a liome upon which no shadow had ever fallen ! 0, bow I have wished that mine re¬ sembled it." " Yoa cau make it bo ; only be wbat you ouce was—the same to your basband as be¬ fore you called bim yours—and you will flnd in his heart a depth of love aud tenderuedS that will astonish you," Here tbe conversatiou was interrupted, uor was it resnmed until the following day, when Mrs. Brown, baviug completed ber visit to her friend, left for her owu happy home.— Then a,single allusion to tbe couveraatiou o^ the previous day was all she ventured, bnt as ahe pressed a parting kiss^npon the brow o^ her friend, she whispered—" Try it, Lucy;— you will, I know, but do not stop halfway !" day of absence, have^been fretful complain- At a later period of the eveuing he stood near ings, .The ohildren havebeen unruly,or the me, in conversation with the bride; a single household affairs bave goue wrong, or the sentence that he addressed to her, fell upon servants have been impndent—your apirit my ears—it wa3 this—' Be careful—very oare. haa been chafed by these irritations, and be fn!—never to allow tbe mere duties of the has been greeted by a reoital of your per- wif« tn chill, or to couoeal the love of the pleiities, on reaching the home to which be bride.* I thought littU of it at the moment, had tumed for a reapite^from anxiety." bnt the words came to me again, as I was " You are severe, Mra.

Now bear me. When dawned upon it, aaid, 'Yea.' I resolved, and Mr. Selwyn entera his home, ouly to find npou ; in the resolve of that hour, the gray skies al- your face tbe expression of a sober serious- j ready begau to brighten, and I felt snre that ness, amounting almost to sadness ; wheu his j the sunlight wonld cornel Yoa, who bave cheerfal words are answered in a toue tbat ' been within my home, know how completely apeaks a dissatisfied heart, his own feelinga, ' I have succeeded." however buoyant and hopeful, sink under the influence of that mental gloom. As sensitive as yoarself, he feels the absence of sympatby, and your manner, more than?yonr words, leads to the fear that you are too much en¬ grossed by consideratious of a selfish natare, to be able to sympathize witb him." " Mrs. Brown," said her hearer rising from ber seat, "I could have born such language from few otbers. If you are correct, I am childish to expect my husband's praiso!" Here, overcome by the feelings wbich had been so unsparingly probed, Mra. Selwyn burst into tears, and iu the passiouatn gush of emotion, was about to leave the room, when Mrs. Brown gently, bat firmly res¬ trained her. " Sit dowu, my dear Lucy ait dowu, or all I have said will harm, rather then benefit you. You do iudeed deserve praise, but not for the thiugs I ha-^'e named ; your domestic duties are uohly performed ; your house is a pattern of neatness; your diligence, your regard for yonr hnsband'a iuterests, ynur oarefuiness of bis comfort, ao far aa the ma¬ terial appointments of his home are coucerued, aj-e wortby ofall commendation." " But, if so, why do I never hear it from his lips ?" " Becauae yoa discourage its expression if the words wure springing to bis lips, oue glance at the martyr-like expression your features sometimes wear, would cbill tbem tbere. The trutb is, Lucy, if your husbaud bad no heart, he would praise you; he has a beart, aud therefore doea not." " You speak iu enigmas, Mrs. Gray !" "You treat bim'as ifyou thougbt that his well-kept home ought to satisfy all bia wiah¬ es ; he feels tbat he should recieve more than tbis!" " What more ?" "Love—tbe love ofhis own wife !" " Why, Mrs. Brown, do you suppose be ¦donbta it ?" " What reasou has he to believo that he retains it? Once be could read your affec¬ tion in every act; it spoke from your eyea, and waa manifested in a thonsand littla nameleas attentions, wbich though insignifi¬ cant in themselves, win their way to the heart:—be knew tbat you loved bim then !i " He has no right to doubt it now!" "I ask, again, what ground bas he for be¬ lieving it, except that you are his wife ?— Wh.-vt yoa do for him may be tbe mere per- manceofdnty;—the peouliar offices of love yon have long since ceaaed to tender, and he has oeased to expect them ; it would be a surprise to him to be met by you as you used to meet bim ere he became your husband.'' Tbis was a uew phase of tbe subject to Mrs. Selwyn ; a faint light began to dawn upon her, a dim suapicion that bor friend migbt, at least in part, bo right;—but how could she help it 1 how could she express wbat ahe did not feel ? This thought, flash¬ ing across her mind startled her. Had she, indeed ceased to love her huaband ? No ;— Why, tben, did sbe not feel the sariie warm impulse as of old? She begau to be per- pbxed aud alarmed ! Then her thonghts re¬ verted to the change in Mr. Selwyn; he was no longer wbat lie had beeu—so solicitous for her comfort, so tender of her feelings, so de¬ ferential to her wishes—and there was a flush upou her cheek aa she replied—" The change, Mrs. Brown, has uot been all upon one side." "No," replied her friend, '"'and were I apeakiug to'your husbaud, I should remind him of that; and yet, to you I must say, tbat had you, previous to tbo time yon won hi-3 heart, wom the aspect wbioh is now uaual witb you, Mr. Selwyn would never have aougbt you as a wifo !" " Aud bad be been tben, as he now is, I would never accepted bim as a husband," retorted Lucy, with spirit. "The fault," said Mrs. Brown, " is mutual; it has had its origin iu the too common con¬ viction, that after marriage, those attentions which are the mo.^t expressive tokens of love are nnneeded; and by a fatal mistake, the qnalities lhat bave awakened and fostered affection, cease to be exhibited and the love which was born ofthem begins to languish ; the heart f^ela a want that is not met; pride restrains the tongue from speakiug of sucb feelings, but they are exhibited in tbe man¬ ner : it is not long ere the coolness or petu¬ lance ofone is reflected in the carriage of the other, and tbus, step by step, a change pro¬ ceeds, the results of whicb are fatal to all happiueas. With you, Luoy, tbe cbauge haa not advanced so far, but it bas progre.=is«d till tbe sunlight of your skies bas faded iuto gray—let it proceed, and I cau predict fnr you gloom that will shadow your whole life 1 Stop," aaid sbe, aa Mrs. Selwyn was about to interrupt her, " hear me through, and tben act aa you plea.se. If you really wiah for the sunlight which brightened your early wedded life, you may bave it again ! Meet your hasband, as of old, witb a smile; let him see tbat his presence is a pleasure to yon; make bis home the brightest place he finds ; let thoso attentions, which once were so free ly rendered, take tbe place of querulous com¬ plainings—iu short, let tbe eJlluence ofa loving heart flll your home witb its bright¬ ness aud its beaaty, and you will not wait long ere tbe gray will brighten into golden light !" "It would be in vain, Mrs. Brown," aaid Lucy, sadly ; " I believe that with tbe incon¬ sistency nataral to man, Mr. Selwyn has ceased to value that wbicb he poesessea—tbe very attentions that were ouce a pleasure, would now be wearisome to him." " Lucy," repUed her friend, in an earnest tone, " I apeak confldenlly, for my words are tbe result of e:>cperienoe. I had not been many years a wife before I paased Into the shadow that is now eveloping your home ; I have felt all tbat you deacribe, and reasoned jast as yon now do, and only for what appear¬ ed a chanca event, but in which I now aee the band of amerciful Ood, I shoald bave wrecked my earthly happineas. With me. the cbange had proceeded so far, that I had ceased to hope for any alteration, when one evening, in company with my husband, I attended a wedding-party of two dear young frienda.— They had just returned fromtbeir bridal tour, and never was happiness written in brighter charactera tban upon thoae young faces I slood there, sad in heart, for I remembered wben I waa gay aa that fair young bride- full of hope and joy; and asl atood a little apart from the company, I foand myaelf won¬ dering whether she woold ever feel aa I then felt! The white-haired 'olergymani who a month V^fore had zuaRled themj was present. A year bad elapsed ere the next viait of Mrs. Browu lo tbe Sclwyus was made. It waa evening wheu tbe carriage tbat conveyed her drove up to the door. Glad hearts and cheerful voices welcomed her. A merry group of children was gathered aronud the ctfUter table, which was strewu with games and paintings. Mr. Selwyn beld in bia band a volume which he had just been reading aloud to tbe little party. Tbe work-basket of Mrs. Selwyn, at the side of her cushioned chair, ahowed how her fingers bad beau enga¬ ged ; aud over all, and especially upon tbe fa¬ ces ofthe parents, there was au expression of suoh cheerfolnesa, that Mra. Brown felt as¬ sured her prescription of the year before had been tried, and not witbout succeas. As Mrs. Selwyn was assisting to disrobe her frieud of her outer garments, Mrs. Brown ventured a single queatiou: "Lucy, deareat,_are|the skies still gray f" '¦ 0, uo I it is all sunlight now!" And those wbite arms were wound arouud tbe form of her friend, aud a shower of kiaaea poured upon the lips which had tanght her the secret of trausformiug gray to gold ! JEEI—A JXTDGE.. " Oh dear!" sighed a half-starved, ragged little boy, oue cold chilly nigbt in tbe fall of 1829, as he sat, or rather half reclined on hi^ elbow, on the cold damp step of oue of the large fine houses in New York city ; " how I .wisli I had only one of them nice cakea iu tbat window." And as hS half-mattered to himself, his dark tearful eyes watched the well-filled window ofa large baker-shop. Theru he aat, hour after hour, with no warm bed to aleep iu. The only frieud he bad, as he thought, was his Heavenly Fatber, for hia mother had died the day btifore from starvation, and now be waa left a a orphan, to wander all alone through that large and wicked city. Soon however, he fell asleep, aud his troub¬ les left him for a time. He slept long aud soundly. At laat be was awakened from bia sleep by the sound of a large clock striking five. The atreets were very still, aad there was was not the aauj^ noise aud commotion tbat tbere is on otber mornings' for it was Suuday. There be sat, rubbing hia eyes as though ho were taking his morning bath. Presently some one pulled him by the coat Cor what might have once been called a coat) and said, " Come Jem, wake up it is long past daylight, and I am getting hungry. If you will come witb me, I will tell you where we cau get pleuty to eat for I saw a shop-man shut hia blinds without once locking them." Jem looked up in real aatonishment. " Will he give ua sometbing V he asked. " No we cau hook it, you know ; and he won't miss it, I know." Jam looked up slowly, and answered firm¬ ly :" I shan't at'eal, and yoa can't make me, any viorc, for I promised my mother, jost an sbe died, I wouldn't. Yoa may go, but I shan't." .Tack bang bis head and aaid nothing. Soon however, he muttered to bimself, "Y'oo may atarve to death, but I shan't;" then, raising his voice, be cried, " Hurrah I I'm going anyhow, to get sometbing to eat." Jem walked ofl" iu the opposite direction, wbifltiing to himaelf " Home, sweet Home." The bells were ringing for Sabbath school, al nine o'clock. Jem happened to be paaaing St. Paura obapel, and as be aaw the boya aud girls going in, he thought he would like to Htm the church ; ao he eutered, but nut with¬ out first taking off" hia oap, and wiping his bare feet before be touched the step. One of tho teachers saw him, aud aaked bim ifhe came to school. He waa so mucb frightened he did not auswer ; tut she put him into a clasa with some younger boya. Afler the aes^sion was over, abe oame and olosely queationed bim, and fiuding him ao bonest and upright, she took bim home with ber aod gave him his breakfast, and then learned from bim his wbole hiatory. Her father, a celebrated lawyer ot that city, happened to be in want of an office-boy. Jem accepted the oITttr of tho vacant place, and kept bis employer's office neat and clean, and waa soon sent to school for instraction. He made the very beat uae of his time, improved very fast, and waa aoon admittted into the office aa clerk. He studied, became a pro¬ ficient in law, kept up hia habits of strict in¬ tegrity and bonor, was finally made a partner iu the business of hia employer, and in thia year of grace, 1859, is oue of tbe most popu¬ lar judgns in Westeru New-York. Thia little incident, dear children, shows ua that integrity wins ita reward even in thia world.

HYGIEKIC HINTS. HalVs Journal of Health saya that a per aon born acrofuloua or becoming so after birth need not remain bo to any specially hurtfal extent. If " white-awellings " or" ranninga" do no relieve the system of ill-hnmors, tbe disease may be worked out of the system by a ohange in the habits of hfe—suoh a ohange aa involvea large out-door aotivities for the greater part of every day. The same thing may be accompliahed, to a great extent, in¬ doors, ae where a sedentary life ia followedi by spending a large portion of each day in iu active etnployment on foot. More decided resulta will follow if the aid ia given, mean¬ while, of judicious personal habits, ae Eornpn- lous oleanlinesa of body and clothing, of reg¬ ular, fall, and sufficient sleep ; of plain, sim¬ ple and nutrioious food, eaten at regular in¬ tervals of five or sis hours, and nothing be¬ tween, with that daily regnlarity which is essential to health under all ciroumstanoes. A aorofulouB person]should eat^ fresh mealB 1 arg^ly, and bread, frnitsand berries of every description, using vegitables sparingly. In short, whatever promotes high bodily-healthy promotes the eraoidation of scrofulous taint. In regard to internal remedies, one of tbree things is the nniform result. First, the med¬ icine gradually losses its power; aecond the aystem ie benefitted only while it is taken; or, third, the remedy gradually poisons the syatem, or impairs tbe toue of tbe stomach, aud hastens a fatal reault. No medicine ever orraoidated acrofala, or kept it under any lon¬ ger tbau while it was taken under certain, conditions ; a scrofulous person has agreater chance of long life tban one who is entirely free from it, becanse being conscious of a slendernesa of constitution, greater care ia ta¬ ken to avoid canses of sickness. The tendency of ludia^ rubber shoes is to make the feet cold, thua endangering the bealth; hence tbey are useful only in walk¬ ing when the gronnd ismuddy orslosby with melting snow. In these cases they are inval¬ nable. When rubbers are on the feet per¬ sona should keep moving and remove them on entering the house. If rabbers have beeu on the feet several hoars, both shoes and stockings are necessarially damp by the con¬ densation and confinement of the perapira¬ tion ; tberefore air sbould be removed aud tbe naked foot beld to tbe fire till warm aud dry in every part. The same rnle holds good in relation to leather boots and shoes made waterproof. Forcommon purposes leather boots aud shoes ara the best, if kept well blacked, with several renewals of dry socks during the day if the feet perspire profusely. If a man begins to cough, as the^jreault of a commou cold, it is the result of natare herself attempting a cure, aud sbe will eflect it in her own time and more efTectually thau any man can do, if she is only lot aloue, and her inatinots cheriahed. What are thoae in¬ stincts ? Sbe abhors food and craves warmth. Hence, the moment a man ia satisfied thathe bas taken a cold, let bim do three things ; 1st eat not an atom ; 2d, go to bed and oover up in a warm room; 3d, drink aa much cold wa¬ ter as he wanta, or as much bot berb tea as he can, aud in three caaes out of four, he will be almost entirely well witbin thirty-six honrs. If he doea nothing for his cold for forty-eight houra after tbe cough oommencea, there is nothing that be can swallow that will, by any possibility, do bim good for tbe cold, with snch a start'will run its courso of about a fort-night, in spite of all that can be done, and medioine will only hinder a cure. " Feed a cold aud starve a fever," ia a mis¬ cbevious fallacy. A cold always brings a fe¬ ver ; tbe cold never begins to get well till the fever begins to subside; and every mouthful that is swallowed feeds the fever. RIGHT HEAEING- Rowland Htll, a few years before hia death, made a visit to an old friend, who said to him " Mr. Hill, it is juat sixty-five yeara aince I first heard you preaob, aud I remem¬ ber your text aud a p;^rt of the sermon. Yoa told us that many people where very squea¬ mish abont hearing minlsterB wfao preaobed the same gospel Yoa said, 'Suppose yoa \rere hearing a will read where you expeoted a legacy to be left you, would yon employ the time of ita reading iu oritioizing tbe manner in wbich the lawyer read it ? No, you woald not; yon would be giving all ear to hear wbether anything was left you, and how .xnnoh. That is the way I would advise you to hear tho gospel.' " Thia was adviae worth remembering tbressoore and five years. Becaaae they have not learned the lesson thus taught by Rowland. Hill, there are multitudes who hear the gospel very much iu vain. Anotber apeodote, illustrating the praotioal hearing of the gospel, although often repeat¬ ed, is yet worth repeating a thousand timea more. Au old lady who kept a little atore went to hear a sermon in whioh tbe use of diabouest weights and measnres was fully set fortb. Sbe was deeply impressed. The next day the minister called on her, aud took occasion to ask her what sbe remembered of the sermon. She complained of ber bad memory, but ending by saying, " I remem¬ bered—I remembered to bum my bushel." A doer of the word tvill not he a forgetful hearer of it.

" PoUtics is the art of fishing for oflice, sir," " Next; what is the politics of this coun¬ try ?" " Spoils and the almighty nigger; mostly the nigger, sir." " What is democracy ?" " Democracy is^doin' nothin' for the peo¬ ple, and everythin' for office." " What are the principles of democracy, next ?" " Votin', sir." " What are the tynets of the Republican party?" " Wool and tlie irrepressible conflict." "What are the inalienable righta of free¬ men?" "The right of votin' easy aud often, the right of sellin' their votes to the highest bidder, aud tho right of stuifin' the ballot box." " Can you explain what are State rights ?'i " Well, when I read Douglas' opinions, I begiu to think State rights are a muddle, and when I read Judge BL-ick's opiniou, I know they're a muddle, aud the more I think the less I know about 'em. Douglas says. States have rights with a proviso; Judge Black says, States have rights with a reservation. I oan't fiud the resarvation, and don't know where to look for the 'proviso." " What is the Constitution ?" "A finger-board a pointin' the way which nobody goes." " What ia a member of Congress ?" " Sometimes a shoulder hitter, aometimes a high-heeled rowdy, and often au iguora mus." *' What are the qualifications neceaaaiy for a Member of A3.=»emb!y ?" " lie must be ablu to play poker, drink gin, talk loud and long in bar-rooius, make windy speeches full of sound and fury, signi¬ fying nothing, aud have 'jio objections to goiug in on his muscle." " Who are the law makera ?" "The law breakers." " Which ia the dominant party at pres¬ ent ?" " WeU its nip and tuck—dog a little ahead."

There are a thonsands pretty, engaging little ways, whicli every person may put on, without running the risk of being deemed either affected or foppish. The sweet smile, the quiet, cordial bow, the earneat movement in addressing a friend, ^or more especially a stranger, whom one may recommend to oar good regards, the inquiring glance, the grace¬ ful attention whicii ia so captivating when anited with self possession—these will insure ns the good regards of even a churl. Above all, there is a certain aoftnesa of manner whicii should be cultivated, and wbiuh in either man or woman adds a charm that almoat entirely compensates for lack of beauty. When a. hooae is on fire, the bUze is more quickly seen from vitbont than within—it Ii 1 tlio same with the rain of a State. Take your place modestly at life's banquet, saya Knebel, and aak for nothing not in the bill of fare. When ill-news comea too late to be service¬ able to your neighbor, keep it to youraelf. The riohest man on earth is but a pauper fed and clothed by the bounty of Heaven. He who turnsj spy for pleaure, twonldn't hesitate to be hangman for bnainess. Different individuals are often atruok by similar Ideas; tberefore, we ought not to be proud of our own kuowledge in anything whereof we conceive ourselves to be the in¬ vention. The greateat thongbts seem degraded In tbeir passage throngb little minds. Even tbe winds of heaven make but mean musio wben whistling tbrougb a kej-bole. Otir own beart, and not otber men's opin¬ ions, forms onr true bonor. Tfae noblest employment of tbe mind Is in the atady of natoie or trutb. FOR EENT.

GSAY SKIES: AND A WAY TO BRIGHTEN THEM.
Seated together iu a pleasant parlor, in. the appoininieuts of wbich everything betokened comfort, not uumiapled with elegance, were two ladies. The } oiinger, wbo had not reach¬ ed lhe meiidiaii -of life, bore in her ronnded form, and classically regular features, eviden¬ ces of great youthful beauty,hallowed, lather than dimmed, by the ten years thut had passed since she stood a bride at llie altar. Bixt np¬ ou those fair-featuros there rested a shadow, indefinable, yet plainly there ; tho bright eye had a liuge of melancholy mingling with its mosl cheerful i;'3uce, and the liuely-chiseled mouth, beautiful ia its repose, looked as ifit had forgotteu how lo smile. Yet very fair appeared Lucy S-.-lwyn to tbe eye of hermore advanced companion, as tbey" sal iu tbat pleasant parlor ou tbe bright May moruing!
Mrs, Brown was possibly twenty years older than her fiiend, but witb ont* of tbose bright* cheery faces, that the band of age uever robrJ of the light of a youthful spirit. Wrinkles there were, if you should search for tbem—- ciow's-feet about the eyes, .ind deeper lines grooved iu tbe broad forehH.id, but the cheer¬ ful light that danced upon the whole coaule- nance so vailed them in beauty, that few ever noted the footprints whicb tbe years had left in passing.
At the feet of Mrs. Selwyn was a paper ;— sbe had been reading aloud, from it, one of tbose fugitive pieces, which come, -with their glimpses of domestic life, like golaen lessona to the heart. The piece was headed, ''The Rift in the Cloud," and as she fiuisbed it, sbe bad allowed tbe paper to drop carelessly from ber ban^3,esclaiming, "Never were written truer words tbau are thosa I"
There was a tinge of bitterness in tbe ex¬ pression of these words that caused Mrs. Brown to look up from the -work on wbicb sbe was engaged, when, in response to her look of inquiry, Mrs. Selwyn continued:
"It mfly seem strange to yon to listen to sncb words from me, yet Mrs. Brown, my bome is very difierent from tbe ideal ofmy girlhood ; 1 bavo seen, one by one, the bright visions I bad cherished fade out before ,the stern experieuce of the wife; in short, I no longer disguise from myself that my bome is not a happy oue."
" And yet, Lucy, yoa bave no clouda to shadow your path; no storms lo distress you- Without anxieties for tbe preseut; with a busband whose pride it is to make your bome comfortable, and children whom it shonld be a boly joy to train—with these, and to crown aud brighten all, the Christian's bope in yonr heart, your boqjjB should be happy !"
" Others think so," was the sadjy-spokeu reply, "and maoy perhaps envy me ; I have, as you say, no storms to breast, but to carry out your figure, my skies bave lost their once bright tints, and are robed Ju cheerless gray, aud 1 move beneath tbem Uke one from wbose heart tbe sunlight ia shut out!"
" Opeu your beart to me, my dear Lucy," said Mrs. Bruwn, iu a tone of the deepest af¬ fection—"lam au old woman now, and bave, iu my day, experienced mauy changing skies —the sunbright, tbo stormy, yes, tbe cold, dull gray, as well—and my «txperieuce may be able to suggest a way of scattering the mists lhat hide the sunbeams fffem your beart."
" Weli," repHed liucy, taking up tlij pa¬ per wbich bad fallen at her feet: " this littlo sketch portrays just wbat I for years have feit—the unappreciated d«votion for a wife— my husband never commends me, and I am made to feel tbat, in bis eyes, I am deficient iu everything. Ho speaks in commendation of olbers,-and bis praise of ihem culs^io my¬ beart, eo mnch do I covet it for myself, but covet it in vain ; indeed, I no longer expect bis praise."
" Lucy," said her friend, in a low voice, " excuse me, if I tell^you that the fault is your own. If you can bear to be truly dealt witb, I will show you whence the gray mists come, aud a way to disperse tbem too."
" Tbe fault is mine ?—and this from you Mrs. Brown 1 But go on; I will listeu duti¬ fully."
"No, Lucy, I had better bo silent, thau have you listen iu suck a spirit; jyou have long proved my love, and should know tbat I would not be unkind, and yet tbe only way to help you is one that may give you paiu."
" Forgive my pettishness, my dear friend. I do know tbat your heart ia kindness itself, bnt I am so wearied with blame, tbat my spirit rises against it, however kindly meant." *'I bave noticed it, Luoy; you love your hnsband so well, that you wiah him to be blind to every defect; you cannotbear tbe expression of dissatisfaction, but would de¬ light in the approbation of oue so dear to you. Tbis I know, but your busband does not, for your conduct to him is tbe reverse of what you expect from^him." " No, Mrs. Brown, you do me wrong I" "Do you ever praise your husbaud!" "Praise him ! No ; he doea not waut my praise." . " Do you never censure him ?" " I do find fault, sometimes, but how can I belp it, when be is so unreasonable as he often is!"
*'You, then, withhold praise,^and bestow censure upon your husband; these things of whioh you complain in bim, make, yon say your home-skies gray — have you never thought that the efiect might be the same on kiml''
Keoeiving no reply, Mrs. Brown continued; " During the montb I have now beea under yoor roof, I have aeldom aeen you hasten to meet your husband on his return, as if bis coming bronght a pleasnre with it; I have noticed that tometimes the first worda he has keard from the lips of his wife, after a whole
*• Can thia, indeed, beso!" exclaimed Luoy, in astonishment; "1 had Hupposad that yours was a liome upon which no shadow had ever fallen ! 0, bow I have wished that mine re¬ sembled it."
" Yoa cau make it bo ; only be wbat you ouce was—the same to your basband as be¬ fore you called bim yours—and you will flnd in his heart a depth of love aud tenderuedS that will astonish you,"
Here tbe conversatiou was interrupted, uor was it resnmed until the following day, when Mrs. Brown, baviug completed ber visit to her friend, left for her owu happy home.— Then a,single allusion to tbe couveraatiou o^ the previous day was all she ventured, bnt as ahe pressed a parting kiss^npon the brow o^ her friend, she whispered—" Try it, Lucy;— you will, I know, but do not stop halfway !"
day of absence, have^been fretful complain- At a later period of the eveuing he stood near ings, .The ohildren havebeen unruly,or the me, in conversation with the bride; a single household affairs bave goue wrong, or the sentence that he addressed to her, fell upon servants have been impndent—your apirit my ears—it wa3 this—' Be careful—very oare. haa been chafed by these irritations, and be fn!—never to allow tbe mere duties of the has been greeted by a reoital of your per- wif« tn chill, or to couoeal the love of the pleiities, on reaching the home to which be bride.* I thought littU of it at the moment, had tumed for a reapite^from anxiety." bnt the words came to me again, as I was

Now bear me. When dawned upon it, aaid, 'Yea.' I resolved, and Mr. Selwyn entera his home, ouly to find npou ; in the resolve of that hour, the gray skies al- your face tbe expression of a sober serious- j ready begau to brighten, and I felt snre that ness, amounting almost to sadness ; wheu his j the sunlight wonld cornel Yoa, who bave cheerfal words are answered in a toue tbat ' been within my home, know how completely apeaks a dissatisfied heart, his own feelinga, ' I have succeeded." however buoyant and hopeful, sink under the influence of that mental gloom. As sensitive as yoarself, he feels the absence of sympatby, and your manner, more than?yonr words, leads to the fear that you are too much en¬ grossed by consideratious of a selfish natare, to be able to sympathize witb him."
" Mrs. Brown," said her hearer rising from ber seat, "I could have born such language from few otbers. If you are correct, I am childish to expect my husband's praiso!" Here, overcome by the feelings wbich had been so unsparingly probed, Mra. Selwyn burst into tears, and iu the passiouatn gush of emotion, was about to leave the room, when Mrs. Brown gently, bat firmly res¬ trained her.
" Sit dowu, my dear Lucy ait dowu, or all I have said will harm, rather then benefit you. You do iudeed deserve praise, but not for the thiugs I ha-^'e named ; your domestic duties are uohly performed ; your house is a pattern of neatness; your diligence, your regard for yonr hnsband'a iuterests, ynur oarefuiness of bis comfort, ao far aa the ma¬ terial appointments of his home are coucerued, aj-e wortby ofall commendation."
" But, if so, why do I never hear it from his lips ?"
" Becauae yoa discourage its expression if the words wure springing to bis lips, oue glance at the martyr-like expression your features sometimes wear, would cbill tbem tbere. The trutb is, Lucy, if your husbaud bad no heart, he would praise you; he has a beart, aud therefore doea not."
" You speak iu enigmas, Mrs. Gray !" "You treat bim'as ifyou thougbt that his well-kept home ought to satisfy all bia wiah¬ es ; he feels tbat he should recieve more than tbis!"
" What more ?"
"Love—tbe love ofhis own wife !" " Why, Mrs. Brown, do you suppose be ¦donbta it ?"
" What reasou has he to believo that he retains it? Once be could read your affec¬ tion in every act; it spoke from your eyea, and waa manifested in a thonsand littla nameleas attentions, wbich though insignifi¬ cant in themselves, win their way to the heart:—be knew tbat you loved bim then !i " He has no right to doubt it now!" "I ask, again, what ground bas he for be¬ lieving it, except that you are his wife ?— Wh.-vt yoa do for him may be tbe mere per- manceofdnty;—the peouliar offices of love yon have long since ceaaed to tender, and he has oeased to expect them ; it would be a surprise to him to be met by you as you used to meet bim ere he became your husband.'' Tbis was a uew phase of tbe subject to Mrs. Selwyn ; a faint light began to dawn upon her, a dim suapicion that bor friend migbt, at least in part, bo right;—but how could she help it 1 how could she express wbat ahe did not feel ? This thought, flash¬ ing across her mind startled her. Had she, indeed ceased to love her huaband ? No ;— Why, tben, did sbe not feel the sariie warm impulse as of old? She begau to be per- pbxed aud alarmed ! Then her thonghts re¬ verted to the change in Mr. Selwyn; he was no longer wbat lie had beeu—so solicitous for her comfort, so tender of her feelings, so de¬ ferential to her wishes—and there was a flush upou her cheek aa she replied—" The change, Mrs. Brown, has uot been all upon one side."
"No," replied her friend, '"'and were I apeakiug to'your husbaud, I should remind him of that; and yet, to you I must say, tbat had you, previous to tbo time yon won hi-3 heart, wom the aspect wbioh is now uaual witb you, Mr. Selwyn would never have aougbt you as a wifo !"
" Aud bad be been tben, as he now is, I would never accepted bim as a husband," retorted Lucy, with spirit.
"The fault," said Mrs. Brown, " is mutual; it has had its origin iu the too common con¬ viction, that after marriage, those attentions which are the mo.^t expressive tokens of love are nnneeded; and by a fatal mistake, the qnalities lhat bave awakened and fostered affection, cease to be exhibited and the love which was born ofthem begins to languish ; the heart f^ela a want that is not met; pride restrains the tongue from speakiug of sucb feelings, but they are exhibited in tbe man¬ ner : it is not long ere the coolness or petu¬ lance ofone is reflected in the carriage of the other, and tbus, step by step, a change pro¬ ceeds, the results of whicb are fatal to all happiueas. With you, Luoy, tbe cbauge haa not advanced so far, but it bas progre.=is«d till tbe sunlight of your skies bas faded iuto gray—let it proceed, and I cau predict fnr you gloom that will shadow your whole life 1 Stop," aaid sbe, aa Mrs. Selwyn was about to interrupt her, " hear me through, and tben act aa you plea.se. If you really wiah for the sunlight which brightened your early wedded life, you may bave it again ! Meet your hasband, as of old, witb a smile; let him see tbat his presence is a pleasure to yon; make bis home the brightest place he finds ; let thoso attentions, which once were so free ly rendered, take tbe place of querulous com¬ plainings—iu short, let tbe eJlluence ofa loving heart flll your home witb its bright¬ ness aud its beaaty, and you will not wait long ere tbe gray will brighten into golden light !"
"It would be in vain, Mrs. Brown," aaid Lucy, sadly ; " I believe that with tbe incon¬ sistency nataral to man, Mr. Selwyn has ceased to value that wbicb he poesessea—tbe very attentions that were ouce a pleasure, would now be wearisome to him."
" Lucy," repUed her friend, in an earnest tone, " I apeak confldenlly, for my words are tbe result of e:>cperienoe. I had not been many years a wife before I paased Into the shadow that is now eveloping your home ; I have felt all tbat you deacribe, and reasoned jast as yon now do, and only for what appear¬ ed a chanca event, but in which I now aee the band of amerciful Ood, I shoald bave wrecked my earthly happineas. With me. the cbange had proceeded so far, that I had ceased to hope for any alteration, when one evening, in company with my husband, I attended a wedding-party of two dear young frienda.— They had just returned fromtbeir bridal tour, and never was happiness written in brighter
charactera tban upon thoae young faces I slood there, sad in heart, for I remembered wben I waa gay aa that fair young bride- full of hope and joy; and asl atood a little apart from the company, I foand myaelf won¬ dering whether she woold ever feel aa I then felt! The white-haired 'olergymani who a month V^fore had zuaRled themj was present.
A year bad elapsed ere the next viait of Mrs. Browu lo tbe Sclwyus was made. It waa evening wheu tbe carriage tbat conveyed her drove up to the door. Glad hearts and cheerful voices welcomed her. A merry group of children was gathered aronud the ctfUter table, which was strewu with games and paintings. Mr. Selwyn beld in bia band a volume which he had just been reading aloud to tbe little party. Tbe work-basket of Mrs. Selwyn, at the side of her cushioned chair, ahowed how her fingers bad beau enga¬ ged ; aud over all, and especially upon tbe fa¬ ces ofthe parents, there was au expression of suoh cheerfolnesa, that Mra. Brown felt as¬ sured her prescription of the year before had been tried, and not witbout succeas.
As Mrs. Selwyn was assisting to disrobe her frieud of her outer garments, Mrs. Brown ventured a single queatiou:
"Lucy, deareat,_are|the skies still gray f"
'¦ 0, uo I it is all sunlight now!" And those wbite arms were wound arouud tbe form of her friend, aud a shower of kiaaea poured upon the lips which had tanght her the secret of trausformiug gray to gold !
JEEI—A JXTDGE..
" Oh dear!" sighed a half-starved, ragged little boy, oue cold chilly nigbt in tbe fall of 1829, as he sat, or rather half reclined on hi^ elbow, on the cold damp step of oue of the large fine houses in New York city ; " how I .wisli I had only one of them nice cakea iu tbat window." And as hS half-mattered to himself, his dark tearful eyes watched the well-filled window ofa large baker-shop.
Theru he aat, hour after hour, with no warm bed to aleep iu. The only frieud he bad, as he thought, was his Heavenly Fatber, for hia mother had died the day btifore from starvation, and now be waa left a a orphan, to wander all alone through that large and wicked city.
Soon however, he fell asleep, aud his troub¬ les left him for a time. He slept long aud soundly. At laat be was awakened from bia sleep by the sound of a large clock striking five. The atreets were very still, aad there was was not the aauj^ noise aud commotion tbat tbere is on otber mornings' for it was Suuday. There be sat, rubbing hia eyes as though ho were taking his morning bath.
Presently some one pulled him by the coat Cor what might have once been called a coat) and said, " Come Jem, wake up it is long past daylight, and I am getting hungry. If you will come witb me, I will tell you where we cau get pleuty to eat for I saw a shop-man shut hia blinds without once locking them." Jem looked up in real aatonishment. " Will he give ua sometbing V he asked.
" No we cau hook it, you know ; and he won't miss it, I know."
Jam looked up slowly, and answered firm¬ ly :" I shan't at'eal, and yoa can't make me, any viorc, for I promised my mother, jost an sbe died, I wouldn't. Yoa may go, but I shan't."
.Tack bang bis head and aaid nothing. Soon however, he muttered to bimself, "Y'oo may atarve to death, but I shan't;" then, raising his voice, be cried, " Hurrah I I'm going anyhow, to get sometbing to eat."
Jem walked ofl" iu the opposite direction, wbifltiing to himaelf " Home, sweet Home." The bells were ringing for Sabbath school, al nine o'clock. Jem happened to be paaaing St. Paura obapel, and as be aaw the boya aud girls going in, he thought he would like to Htm the church ; ao he eutered, but nut with¬ out first taking off" hia oap, and wiping his bare feet before be touched the step.
One of tho teachers saw him, aud aaked bim ifhe came to school. He waa so mucb frightened he did not auswer ; tut she put him into a clasa with some younger boya. Afler the aes^sion was over, abe oame and olosely queationed bim, and fiuding him ao bonest and upright, she took bim home with ber aod gave him his breakfast, and then learned from bim his wbole hiatory. Her father, a celebrated lawyer ot that city, happened to be in want of an office-boy. Jem accepted the oITttr of tho vacant place, and kept bis employer's office neat and clean, and waa soon sent to school for instraction. He made the very beat uae of his time, improved very fast, and waa aoon admittted into the office aa clerk. He studied, became a pro¬ ficient in law, kept up hia habits of strict in¬ tegrity and bonor, was finally made a partner iu the business of hia employer, and in thia year of grace, 1859, is oue of tbe most popu¬ lar judgns in Westeru New-York.
Thia little incident, dear children, shows ua that integrity wins ita reward even in thia world.

HYGIEKIC HINTS.
HalVs Journal of Health saya that a per aon born acrofuloua or becoming so after birth need not remain bo to any specially hurtfal extent. If " white-awellings " or" ranninga" do no relieve the system of ill-hnmors, tbe disease may be worked out of the system by a ohange in the habits of hfe—suoh a ohange aa involvea large out-door aotivities for the greater part of every day. The same thing may be accompliahed, to a great extent, in¬ doors, ae where a sedentary life ia followedi by spending a large portion of each day in iu active etnployment on foot. More decided resulta will follow if the aid ia given, mean¬ while, of judicious personal habits, ae Eornpn- lous oleanlinesa of body and clothing, of reg¬ ular, fall, and sufficient sleep ; of plain, sim¬ ple and nutrioious food, eaten at regular in¬ tervals of five or sis hours, and nothing be¬ tween, with that daily regnlarity which is essential to health under all ciroumstanoes. A aorofulouB person]should eat^ fresh mealB 1 arg^ly, and bread, frnitsand berries of every description, using vegitables sparingly. In short, whatever promotes high bodily-healthy promotes the eraoidation of scrofulous taint. In regard to internal remedies, one of tbree things is the nniform result. First, the med¬ icine gradually losses its power; aecond the aystem ie benefitted only while it is taken; or, third, the remedy gradually poisons the syatem, or impairs tbe toue of tbe stomach, aud hastens a fatal reault. No medicine ever orraoidated acrofala, or kept it under any lon¬ ger tbau while it was taken under certain, conditions ; a scrofulous person has agreater chance of long life tban one who is entirely free from it, becanse being conscious of a slendernesa of constitution, greater care ia ta¬ ken to avoid canses of sickness.
The tendency of ludia^ rubber shoes is to make the feet cold, thua endangering the bealth; hence tbey are useful only in walk¬ ing when the gronnd ismuddy orslosby with melting snow. In these cases they are inval¬ nable. When rubbers are on the feet per¬ sona should keep moving and remove them on entering the house. If rabbers have beeu on the feet several hoars, both shoes and stockings are necessarially damp by the con¬ densation and confinement of the perapira¬ tion ; tberefore air sbould be removed aud tbe naked foot beld to tbe fire till warm aud dry in every part. The same rnle holds good in relation to leather boots and shoes made waterproof. Forcommon purposes leather boots aud shoes ara the best, if kept well blacked, with several renewals of dry socks during the day if the feet perspire profusely.
If a man begins to cough, as the^jreault of a commou cold, it is the result of natare herself attempting a cure, aud sbe will eflect it in her own time and more efTectually thau any man can do, if she is only lot aloue, and her inatinots cheriahed. What are thoae in¬ stincts ? Sbe abhors food and craves warmth. Hence, the moment a man ia satisfied thathe bas taken a cold, let bim do three things ; 1st eat not an atom ; 2d, go to bed and oover up in a warm room; 3d, drink aa much cold wa¬ ter as he wanta, or as much bot berb tea as he can, aud in three caaes out of four, he will be almost entirely well witbin thirty-six honrs. If he doea nothing for his cold for forty-eight houra after tbe cough oommencea, there is nothing that be can swallow that will, by any possibility, do bim good for tbe cold, with snch a start'will run its courso of about a fort-night, in spite of all that can be done, and medioine will only hinder a cure. " Feed a cold aud starve a fever," ia a mis¬ cbevious fallacy. A cold always brings a fe¬ ver ; tbe cold never begins to get well till the fever begins to subside; and every mouthful that is swallowed feeds the fever.
RIGHT HEAEING-
Rowland Htll, a few years before hia death, made a visit to an old friend, who said to him " Mr. Hill, it is juat sixty-five yeara aince I first heard you preaob, aud I remem¬ ber your text aud a p;^rt of the sermon. Yoa told us that many people where very squea¬ mish abont hearing minlsterB wfao preaobed the same gospel Yoa said, 'Suppose yoa \rere hearing a will read where you expeoted a legacy to be left you, would yon employ the time of ita reading iu oritioizing tbe manner in wbich the lawyer read it ? No, you woald not; yon would be giving all ear to hear wbether anything was left you, and how .xnnoh. That is the way I would advise you to hear tho gospel.' " Thia was adviae worth remembering tbressoore and five years. Becaaae they have not learned the lesson thus taught by Rowland. Hill, there are multitudes who hear the gospel very much iu vain.
Anotber apeodote, illustrating the praotioal hearing of the gospel, although often repeat¬ ed, is yet worth repeating a thousand timea more. Au old lady who kept a little atore went to hear a sermon in whioh tbe use of diabouest weights and measnres was fully set fortb. Sbe was deeply impressed. The next day the minister called on her, aud took occasion to ask her what sbe remembered of the sermon. She complained of ber bad memory, but ending by saying, " I remem¬ bered—I remembered to bum my bushel." A doer of the word tvill not he a forgetful hearer of it.

"Class in philosophy of politics, come up." Ten boys arise from their seats and array themstjlves in the nsnal ordur iu front of their pedagogne.
'• Now then, what is politics ?"
" PoUtics is the art of fishing for oflice, sir,"
" Next; what is the politics of this coun¬ try ?"
" Spoils and the almighty nigger; mostly the nigger, sir."
" What is democracy ?"
" Democracy is^doin' nothin' for the peo¬ ple, and everythin' for office."
" What are the principles of democracy, next ?"
" Votin', sir."
" What are the tynets of the Republican party?"
" Wool and tlie irrepressible conflict."
"What are the inalienable righta of free¬ men?"
"The right of votin' easy aud often, the right of sellin' their votes to the highest bidder, aud tho right of stuifin' the ballot box."
" Can you explain what are State rights ?'i
" Well, when I read Douglas' opinions, I begiu to think State rights are a muddle, and when I read Judge BL-ick's opiniou, I know they're a muddle, aud the more I think the less I know about 'em. Douglas says. States have rights with a proviso; Judge Black says, States have rights with a reservation. I oan't fiud the resarvation, and don't know where to look for the 'proviso."

ENGAGING MANNERS.
There are a thonsands pretty, engaging little ways, whicli every person may put on, without running the risk of being deemed either affected or foppish. The sweet smile, the quiet, cordial bow, the earneat movement in addressing a friend, ^or more especially a stranger, whom one may recommend to oar good regards, the inquiring glance, the grace¬ ful attention whicii ia so captivating when anited with self possession—these will insure ns the good regards of even a churl. Above all, there is a certain aoftnesa of manner whicii should be cultivated, and wbiuh in either man or woman adds a charm that almoat entirely compensates for lack of beauty.
When a. hooae is on fire, the bUze is more quickly seen from vitbont than within—it Ii 1 tlio same with the rain of a State.
Take your place modestly at life's banquet, saya Knebel, and aak for nothing not in the bill of fare.
When ill-news comea too late to be service¬ able to your neighbor, keep it to youraelf.
The riohest man on earth is but a pauper fed and clothed by the bounty of Heaven.
He who turnsj spy for pleaure, twonldn't hesitate to be hangman for bnainess.
Different individuals are often atruok by similar Ideas; tberefore, we ought not to be proud of our own kuowledge in anything whereof we conceive ourselves to be the in¬ vention.
The greateat thongbts seem degraded In tbeir passage throngb little minds. Even tbe winds of heaven make but mean musio wben whistling tbrougb a kej-bole.
Otir own beart, and not otber men's opin¬ ions, forms onr true bonor.
Tfae noblest employment of tbe mind Is in the atady of natoie or trutb.
