this way; and then to speak so dispara-
gingly of good old Mr. Yelverton, your
mother's own second cousin’s husband!
you forget how- kind he was to Clara
when he made no his last visit, ' and I
am sure, husband, that young Mr. Yel-
verton is not a booby. "Letme see, now
if you should go into a nice"cal'culation
:I think you will find that he is as near-
ly related to you as third or fourth cans-
in, and if he sustains that relation to you
of course he does to me.” A
My rib’s notions of affinity and con-'

sanguinity were too much for me. I
burst into laughter. At length the Crys‘
tal Palace days came. For three weeks
after its opening, not a single individual
from the country pulled up at our door.
and I began to felicitate myself on the
‘possible-error I had. made in my expec-
tations. But ‘Soon the -' "pleasant dream
-was endcd.- "One nightion entering my
dwielling, my eyes fell on‘ four’ regularly

stretched along through the -‘entry. On
examination I foundsome of them mar-"
-ked “ James Bowling,” and others

; ." James Bowling," Jr.” 7 Of. the name, 'I"

had no rcmembrancewhatever, and feel-‘
ing: anything but pleasant,‘ I'passed' the

»-parlor doors‘, and’ diving into the back

basement, found my wife up to her Vel-

bown mixing biscu‘its,"while Patsey was

skinning a large smoking ham, ~which

she had just taken from tlie-pot. ' _

“Mrs. Lovell, who the mischief are’
Vthose.Bowlings 'l’’ ,was my first saluta-
tion. ’ ' ‘

'“ Well now, dear, I ‘ll tell you, but
you must not scold; you see, when
Clara and I were at cousin Seneca’s last
summer, the Bowlings were often in,
and one afternoon we went and took tea
with them; so of course you know, I
had to invite them to come and see us.
It is true they are not relatives, and I
had noidea they would come and make
_I regular stop with us, but here they are,
eight precious souls in all, -hungry as
bears, for they say they have had no din-
ner, and we shall“ have to do the best we
with them for cousin Seneca.’s sake."

I felt appalled; here were strangers
enough to start a small boarding house,’
who had no claim whatever upon us;
and there remained .' prospective visits
from the blessed relations of the family
besides. When spouse had got her first
batch of biscuits in the oven, I had to
follow her into the parlor for an intro-
duction. Old Mr. Bowling, old Mrs.
Bowling, Miss Emeline Bowling, Miss
Adeline Bowling, Miss Caroline Bow-
ling. Mr. James Bowling, J r., and his
two children, were all shaken heartily
by the hand for the honor of the family,
and more especially for cousin Seneca’s
sake, as my wife expressed it; but if the’
Bowlings could have seen my heart they
would have sloped before they had their
suppers. By the Way, as wife had to
get up a regular cooked supper for them
it vvas_,10§ o'clock at night before we
had finishedythe meal; and as a matter
of consequence, : a splitting headache
was mv companion for the wholeV next
day. Three, days after, Seneca Selkirk
and wife pulled up, accompanied by 3.
.Mi'_. Buckey, a- gentleman, who had
come on from the west to make them a
visit ; and I think it will be admitted on
.all hands that cousin Seneca’s idea of
entertaining his, company at my house
was remarkably brightand. sagacious, -. 4
 We now had eleven. avisitors, and I
had little- hope of -seeing; any of them,
homeward bound for a-fortnight at least."
Everything in the house seemed to -be
thrown into disorder; breakfast was an
_hour after time every morning; dinner
was,s'erv_e_d atany hour-or at all hours,
for country f_'riends are so singularly ob-

" liviouc of the existence .of restaurants

that they expect dinner when they re-

-turn from seeingthe Palace. and the Li-

ons, whether it. be 3, 4, or 5- o’clock.—

Half the time my poor wife had to drag
along with mom in their tardy pcrig‘rin- .
ations, helping them to shop and show-

ing them the sights; and‘ having only
Patsey at home to assist her in entertain-
ing them, i’. was truly -marvellous how

she lived through it; but the fact is, she
was in her element, and -what is done
with a liking is usually done "without
fatigue, - .

_ Before the, eleven had got half thro’
their visit, old Mr. Yelverton and his son
Jefferson made,»-th_e'iL appearance, and
brought along. with - them ayoung Mr.
,,Pan.t0_n,.bro,ther ?,»to the- lady to whom
Jefferson was engaged to be‘ married.—;
The lady herself was detained at home
by asprained ancle. - Our‘ guests now
numbered a baker’s dozen‘ -and one,- and
itseemed to me. that whether my ‘cup
of misery was fullor not, the house -in

which, lived was full and overflowing.

But the- capacity of an omnibus‘, or a
house,» in.Crystal Palace-times, is not to
he settled by any arbitrary law of math‘-
_ematical precision ,'-‘at least no such law

applied to our-house. - After an interval

of a. few days Aiunt Benson came with

the two nieces of her deceased husband.

These again were succeeded by others,

and at length the arrivslsiat the -Lowell

tavern, as I persisted in tanning it, mul-

tiplied to such a degrcethatat one time

we counted around our table twenty-four
noses, besides those pertaining to ,,the

physiogiiom-ies of our__:o,wn _family,-is
When it is remembered that these .tw.eu_-

' x

ty four noses overshadowed as many
months, and that roasting pieces of beef
were selling at 16 cents a pound, it is
not difficult to fancy my feelings, as from
the head of the table I surveyed the
havoc made by four and twenty sets of
grinders, [which the aforesaid mouths -
contained. ’

Eight or ten months ago seine face-
tious limner executed a rude sketch of 1
“house interior,” as it would appear in
Crystal Palace era. The picture repre.
‘sents beds and ‘bunks filled with occu-
pants’, strewed around in all sorts of in.-
coriceivable places, while from the open
bureau drawers the legs and arms of in-
numerable children were seen to pro-
trude‘ in 5' all directions. The sketch,
though rough, was striking and forcible;
You could almost hear the sleepers snore
It was of course intended as a droll ex-
aggeration, but - as Mrs. Lovell in the
height ofan ingenuity, quickened by af-
fection, aiifiiallyv lodged five or six chil-
dren in the “lower drawers of three dif.
ferent bureaus, the picture to which I
allude was ‘ not altogether “ an artist's

“'dream." " In our own sleeping apartment

‘such an arlraiigement had been made,

with which the-little folks were highly
diverted ;' 'aiid'it"—\vas somewhat amusing
to myselfto hear the sound of infantilc

voices from such unwonted places, as ear.
ly in the morning they would commence
their childish prattle about it being so
cjueer and funny to sleep in a bureau
drawer. As far as I could understand
the matter, my wife made one sheet an-
swer for two in furnishing one of then
miniature beds. The children would lie
upon the upper part of the sheet and than
the lower part would be doubled ova,
them. Little Sophy Butters discoverod
the pedal boundary line of her bed the
firstnight she was with us, and bawliug
out to her mother who occupied one of
the screened apartments in the back room

‘Mother, Mother,’ said she-
‘What do you want my child?’

‘Why, mother, I want to knowwhether
‘all the people sleep in bags here in New
York.’ A hearty explosion of laughter
followed from the lodgers on the second

floor.
But I have told enough. Were I to

go on-and relate everything that took
place, hoxvthat after all Mrs. Lovell’: iii-
defatigable exertions, some of the guests
were suspected to be dissatisfied with the
rooms assigned them ; how that disputes
among our visitors, on several popular
questions sometimes ran so high as to
terminate in warm words and subsequent
disaffection; how that occasionally a test
would start in my poor wife’s eye, to find
her efforts to please were not apprecia-
ted ; in short, were I to go fully into par-
ticulars, I should write a book as long I!
the ‘Children of the Abbey,’ instead of In
article adapted to a newspaper. I am
now seeking a pleasant suitable residenco
.in the country, at a’ distance of some
twenty or thirty miles from the metropo_
lie, to which I intend to remove as soon
as the Spring opens. If the reader of
this is a person of curiosity and would
like to know my reason for taking this
proposed step, I refer him to the follow-
ing announcement which appeared in the

INFLUENCE OF THE NBWSPAPB3
mess on OURHOMES.

Who has ever measured it? \Vho hll
estimated its omount.—and its impor.
tance in the noiseless process of educl.
tion and mental culture, which is carried
on in every family circle? It is an un-
obtrusive and unobserved influence. It
is silentand unseeii ; there are no ri-
porters pifeseut, to pourtray the image‘:
and thoughts that pass through the mind
of every .reader,; from the pages of the
newly printed -sheet ; and no one reports
what impressions are permanently stain.
pad on character, by the thoughts and
sentiments thus received. '

This subject, as we remarked in our
last, was the theme of the Rev. Mi‘.
Dickinson’s ~ Sermon on Thanksgiving
Day, a few extracts of which, from :56
Evening Bulletin, are ‘subjoined. Aftir
a few words respecting the observanceof
the day, first in the services of the sanc-

 

- tuary, and then amid the sweet charitioo

and amenities of home, Mr. D. said:

Let us take, for our subject, a visitor
that enters the domestic circle of each of
you, as often as once every week, and
that of most of you each day exceptinf
the Sabbath, and that of some of you ev-

wearing always much the same garb,
but laden each "time with a different mel-
