With a check and a bosom like new fallen snow.

No robes of adorning in loving embrace,
Enfolded those limbs that were peerless in grace I

That you’d deem it lost seraph you gazed upon

So lifeless the hands, though by flowers caressed,
So stirless this feet, that on lilies are pressed.

’Tis the voice of her flaker—in an instant to life
Serenely uprising, with soul beaming eyes,
See woke into rapture ’neath Eden’: blue skin-
A moinent she stood, as in statued repose,
Ire her cheek and her lips wore the hue of the rose
Then slowly, adoring, she knelt on the sod,
And veiled her bright brow at the feet of her God,

inquiring, "Which would make the bet-

The mother and n nest-looking maid
were seen at intervals passing from the
kitchen preparing the supper. ‘The girl
who set out the table, and spread the
white, stainless cloth, and arranged the‘
plates, seemed to do it gracefully and
quietly, as if she had made such duties a
study as a science, and won is passing

pretty servant-s meddle of a. ‘‘help.'’—
Altogether, he thought it was-a charm-

In the morning after a night's sound
sleep—for he was not sufiicientlyinlove
to keep him awskc—he entered the
breakfast-‘room, and was soon joined by
the two young ladies who had firs‘: wel-
comed him. Ssrsh was not yet visible;
but when Jane poured the coffee, Ssrsh
-came smiling in behind a clean white
apron, andwith a steaming pile of hot
buckwheat cakes in her hand which,
from the hue of her cheeks, she had been
baking. If there was a blush on her
check any eye might see it was forced
there by the fire and not by any sense of
degradation, on account of the office she
so well filled. She greeted the guest
with a welcome smile, deposited her
load of edibles and returned to the kitch-
en, whence she tripped again in few mo-
ments with another plate of cakes, most
beautifully baked by her own skill.-
Horace ate a large quantity of them,
more than enough merely to satisfy hun-
ger, because of the beautiful little hands
that made them. And then he wander-
ed over the farm with the old man, and
pi-sled of horses and cows and crops, as
though he knew something about them
as well as brosdcloths and calicoes. At
dinner-time Jane and Charlotte were in
the parlor waiting for him and Sarah, as
usual was bustling about -the kitchen.-
"I do wish,” said he sotio voice, “that
one of those girls would take Sarah’:
place in the kitchen a little while, that
I might find out some of her house-keep-
iug qualities, and that I might have a
little chat with her."
But he waited for such a change
in vain, though he found seine opportu-
nities of converse, and discovered all he
wished to know just then about: her
menislquslifications and acquiiements
and at the close of the fourth day, -just
before he‘ got into bed, he clapped the
white countei-pane emphatically, and
said to ii—as there was nobody in the
room, I supposed he must. have spoken
to the countei-pane or the bedpost-"She
is the wife for me.”
The next day was the limit of his vis-
it; and as he stood at the window after
breakfast, he saw Sarah, with the witch-
ing white apron, trip out into the or-
chard to shake down some apples, for as
it was bskingdey pies were to be made.
Horace strolled out after her, and shook
the trees and helped to pick up the
apples, and carried the basket as. they
returned slowly, very slowly, to‘ the
house. What it was he whispered in
her car, she never told, but she seemed
not displeased though evidently surpri-
sed ands little frightened.
A year after Horace was at the house
of his old\_friend again, and this time Ss-
rsh was not so much in the kitchen.-
There was great pflparations for s wed-
ding going foi-wsrd and in a few days,
Sarah became Mn. Horace Hastings ;—
and now, in a splendid Boston mansion
she fully justifies the wisdom of her dear
husband's choice, by being tcxhiin s most
excellent wife and a superlative house-
keeper. ’
The Whigs at Washington.
Horace Greeley writes from Washing-
lou as follows to the Tribune‘:
A conference of some fifteen or twen-
ty gentlemen, now or formerly in public
life, who have heretofore acted with the
old Whig party, was assembled last week
on the invitation of one of the Senators
who still acknowledges his WhigalIegi-
once. for the purpose of counseling as to
the policy pursued in the ensuing Presi-
dential canvas; and especially of calling
a National Convention. Mr. Vinton,
who was _nppqinted chairman of the.‘
Committee of States xtilhe last Whig
Convention in Baltimore, was present.
The persons who attended represented
the four sections of the Union. After
some discussion it was determined to.
make no movement toward a National‘
Convention, and for the plain reason that
those who had heiet.o.f0re acted together
politically, and still sympsthised in prin-
ciple, had become so identified with oth-
filfassociatione as to render a return to
the former organization impracticable.-—
Still the conviction prevailed that the
object intended could be even more ef-
fectually accomplished by a union thro’
popular nominations in the difi_'ei:en_t
States, which would render all oflhour-.
ring interests at liberty foact with inde-
pendence in regard to_‘ all platforms and
other pc_i;_ti.[ obligitions. '

The Expenses of Queendom.
Several years ago. a body of iner-
chnms residing in the town of Liverpool
(in England.) organized a Financial Re-
form Association, with the avowed pur-
pose of examining into and fully expo-
sing sll cases where the public revenue
Of. England appeared to be'"made ducks
and drakes of,” by neglect, wilful or
careless, by extravagance, by waste, or
by corrupt appropriation. This Liver-
pool Association have published various
Financial Reform Tracts, from time to
time, plain-spoken documents, which
showed the waste and mismanagement
of the public money, under a succession
of Administrations, who clnmoi-ed for
economy and retrenchment, while out of
office, but have been visited, when in
power, with sudden but sdsmantine con-
victions that, if there were abuses, it
would be troublesome to reform or re-
move them, and that, after all, they were
good, old family abuses, and therefore to
be respected accordingly.
The Liverpool Association "issued a
baker's dozen of their Reform Tracts
three year’: ago, and then appeared to
pause from their labors. The other day
they came out with a new tract, (the
fourteenth.) called "The Royal House-
hold, a Model to Parliament and the Na-
tion." This isa very deceptive title; for
the Tract does not indicate that» Queen
Victoria’: Household in any respect is a
model to the nation, or even to families,
but that it should be so. Let us men-
tion : few particulars respecting it.-
They will probably astound some of our
-simple minded republicans, .who are at
present ignorant of the hereditary Eng-
lish method of supporting the "di-vinit_v,”
which Shskspenre sfiii-me, "doth ‘hedge
a King.” »
In June. I837, at the age 18, Victoria
of England succeeded to the crown on
the death of ‘ her‘ uncle, William IV.-
Soon after, as is the custom st the_com-
fiiencement of a new reign, the existing,
arliainent was dissolved, an election
took place, and the,Legislature, among
important business, had to settle the
question of the Civil List—in other
words, to fix and vote the amount of the
annual allowance or pension to be paid
to "Her Most Gracious Majesty." Ac-
cordingly, two days before the Christmas
of 1837, the Queen had the pleasure of
giving her. ofllcial assent to an Act of
Parliament, settling £385,000 0 year
(or nearly $2,000,000)'upon herself for
life. -This allowance, which was £10,-
000 more than had been paid to her un-
cles, "Gentleman George,” and "sailor
Billy,” wns voted as 'f‘ndequate ‘provis-
ion for the support of ‘the honor and dig-
nity'of the Crown.”
At that time, though the masses grum-
bled at suck a disposition of their‘ money
few members of either House of Parlia-
ment ventured to speak of the Civil List
"as too great. At the sum: time, by the
way, the public allowance to the Queen’s
mother, an excellent and highly-rouged
old lady, was increased from $22,000 to
$30,000 a year. When the Civil List
was discussed in the Commons, neither
Hume not bibthorpe raised his voice
against it. Whittle Harvey, it is true,
suggested that, before voting away so
much money, it would be well to inquire
how it was to be spent; bul_he was
choked off with the_ promise of a Com-
mittee been appointed to investigate into
the abuses of the pension list—-n commit-
tee duly organized to do nothing! In
the House of Lords, there was a speech
(one of his best) by Brougham, boldly
declaring that the proposed grant was
too large, that a check should be put on
its expenditure, and that it should not be
voted for life. Nevertheless, the grant
was made, as proposed by the Queen’s
Ministers; Harvey being abused, most
unanimously, as an ill-conditioned Rad-
ical, and Brougham being set down as
anything but a "loyal, loving, and duti-
ful” subject to Her Majesty.
The statute which granted $385,000
periannum to the Queen, with £10,000
per annum additional for "home secret
service,” provided for the particular sp-
plicstion of the money as follows: 1.-
For her Majesty’: privy purse, £60,000
2. For salaries for her household, £131,
260. 3. Expenses of the fiousehnld, (i.
e., what Paddy would call "the best. of
sting and drinking,”) .£I72,500. 4.-
-Royalbounty, aims and spec'isl.sei-vices
£13,200. 5. Pensions to the extent of
£1,200. 6. Unappropriated. moneys,
£8,040.
When this Civil List was thus settled
there was a sort of understanding (indeed
it was specially put into the statute) that
the Queen would surrender, -for her life-
time, the hereditary revenues which her
immediate predecessor had been posses-
sed of—in a word that the £385,000 a
year should be her entire income. On
the contrary, except that the hereditary
duties on beer, ale and cider were sur-
rended by the Queen, and now figure
among the excise assets, there was no
relinquishment of any one shilling of he-
reditary revenue heretofore receivsbly
by tee Sovereign. What is called “The
Civil List" of Ireland and of Scotland
add £115,000 per annum to the £385.-
000 in question—-the Duchy of Lancas-
ter also yields £12,000 per snnuin net
addition to the Queen’: income; there
is £38,000 gxtra, every year from the
Duchy of Cornwall, (which ought to be
but is not, kept for the future use of the
Prince of Wales, to whom it belongs,)
and there are also large annual accesso-
ries of revenue from the Counties Pala-
tine of Chester and Durham, the amounts
‘of which can only be approximated by
striking an average. On the whole,
however, independent of the waifs which
“occasionally fall into the Queen's lap
from other sources, (for instance, she is
heir.to all persons without legal heirs,
who die intestate in any part of her Em-
pire,) Queen Victoria’: annual income
is £668,000 oi nearly doublo what even
George IV. Iuxuriated upon.
As we may have an early opportunity
of showing, it is customary with royalty
_in England. to have a large allowance
made, "to support its honor and dignity,”
and have the amount nearly duplicated
from other sources than those provided
by what is called "the Iiberality of Pat-
liament." Prince Albert. as a case in
point, was provided for with a yearly life
allowance of £30,000 as the Queen's
husband, and her Majesty has heaped lu-
crative appointments upon him, which
one ‘of tliein is Horace Greeley I
more than double his income.
VOLUME XXXIX.---NUMBER 22.
The Parliamentary allowance to the
Queen, large as it is, is only a portion of
what she actually receives. She has
the life-use of a variety of palaces, the
minutes: cost of keeping up and repair-
ing which is delayed, not by her as fee-
tenant," but out of the public revenue —
When she travels by land, even the tolls
payable at turnpike gates are remitted.
When she'voyages by sea, the Admiralty
(who habe built and keep in repair her
steam yacht.) provide her table. out of
the public money. Moreover, she is ac-
tually exempted from payment of every
impest to which her "loyal eubjects,”ai-e
sheuses form the sole exception!
When the Income Tax was imposed
by Sir Robert Peel, in 1842, he announ-
ced, with a great flourish of trumpets,
that the Queen had "most graciously”
determined to submit her own income
to this impost. At the original rate of
scvenpence in the pound, this would
have amounted to‘ about £11,231 on her
nominal and to £20,000 on her actual
income. In consequence of the war, the
Income Tax has been doubled, and her
Majesty ought to pay £40,000 on that
account into the treasury. Inasmuchas
there appears no record of any such pay-
ment, or of any payment whatever, the
Liverpool Association made their secre-
tary write to the Treasury, inquiring
whether the Queen and Prince Albert
actually paid their-quota of the Income
Tax, and whether the Queen paid on the
full amount voted by Parliament or only
on the £60,000 allotted to the Privy
purse? The reply given by the Trees-
ury was short‘ and sharp, to wit, that it
was not the practice to answer inquiries
of this nature, and that "such informa-
tion as you are anxious to obtain is only
furnished through the medium of Par-
liamentary returns, or when called for
in either House of Parliament.”
This reply is dated Dec. 4, 1855, and
the Liverpool Association has not found
any Member of Parliament (though sev-
eral belong to its body) boid enough to
ask the simple question--Has the Queen
kept faith with the country?
The truth is. whoever would put such
a question in Parliament might reckon to
a dead certainty, on getting what is cal-
led "the cold shoulder” from the court for
the rest. of his life. This is a consumma-
tiou which the greatest (nominal) demo-
crat in Parliament is afraid to precipitate!
We have included, as a great pecuni-
sry advantage to Que Victoria, her be-
ing lodged rent-free in the Royal Pal-
aces, without being called upon, as ten-
ants usually are, to-incur the cost of re-
pairs and alterations. This may appear
to be not very considerable, but really is
enormous. The sum voted in the esti-
mates foi Royal Palaces, buildings,
parks, and gardens, was £221,885 in
1854; increased to £224,496 in 1855;
and further extended to £249,693 in the
present year. Add to this the sum of
income; and £60._0_()0 to Prince Albert
from all sources, (without including the
annuities to the Duchess of Kent, Duch-
ess of Gloucester, Duchess of Cambridge
Duke of Cambridge, Princess Augusta
of Cambridge, Princess Mary of Cam-
bridge, and King Leopold of Belgium,
mpking £110-000 extra,) and the Queen
of England and her husband will be
found to receive as much as £997,693 at
year, and all this for wholly personal
and domestic expendilure—and savings.
How to behave in Church.
Our readers shall have the benefit of
the following hints on church etiquette:
For Gentl‘emen.—-Fancy upon open-
ing the door everybody will look at you,
and bear yourself bravely till you get to
your seat. Then pass your hand over
your hsir to see if the hour’s labor that
you spent on it has not been in vain ;
then take a good long stare over the
congregation to see who is there- If
you chew tobacco, blaze away into the
seat behind, if unoccupied, or else let
drive at your neighbor’s patent leathers.
Scratch your name on the back of the
front seats, with the likeness of a one
eyed hippogrifl‘, stare frequently at the
pretty looking girl behind you, and if
possible send her a note assuring her
that she has the prettiest hand, or the
most exquisite eye of blue, this side of
Paradise. After having exhausted all
reasonable amusements you may shut
your eyes, open your mouth, and favor
the congregation with an extempore
snore. . After the service is over, do the
agreeable if possible, to some divinity;
thereafter write yourself a brick.
For Young Ladz‘es.—Spend four
hours in fixing out before starting, for it
is every young lady's duty to look piet-
ty, bearing in mind that ladies were
created for the especial purpose of being
worshipped by gentlemen, and attract-
ing their unqualified admiration. Step
dsintily and gracefully up the aisle, seat
yourself, straighten up, seat yourself
again, and repeat six consecutive times.
Pull the outer garment is little way over
the left shoulder, then back on the right,
and after doing this s few times leave
it where you found it. Straighten down
your collar. then straighten it up, pull
out a highly perfumed pocket handker-
chief, pass it over your lips, and then
return it; smooth down both sides of
your dress, and thrust the toe of your
exquisite foot just a little out, and then
after rising up and sit ' g again, you"
will be prepared for rther develop-
ments. Being properly fixed, you will
rise up again and sit down, and then,
after rising up and sitting down once,
it. would be well to repeat it, If the
gentleman in front sends you a. note,
hide it under your prayer book or fan,
and read it when he is not looking.-
You need pay no particular attention to
the preaching—tIiat will be for the ben-
efit of sinners. If you have blue eyes,
turn them upward once in a while-—if
black, partly close the lids and look
dreamy. If there is a gentleman at
‘church whom you particularly fancy,
don’t look but once at him, and then
drop your glance immediately. After
church don’t. accept .a gentleman's com-
pany unless he pi-offers it—and let your
judgment guide you thereafter.

pose. Place an extinguisher upon the
candle, and the apartment will be left in
darkness, unless there are other lights in
it.
3. Take a kitten (one of s-kindly dis-
position is preferable) and place it upon
your lap. Stroke it gently for a few
seconds, and the animal will be distinct-
ly heard to purr. This experiment may
be varied by pinching its tail, in which
case it will spit, and jump down.
4. Let the cinders be thrown upon the
fire, and then take a common hearth-
broom, and remove every particle of
ash and dust under the gra'te, Hang up

display of tidiness will be made.
5. Take a pair of scissors, the size is
immaterial. Obtain a piece of white or

what loosely, strike them on your knee.

which only leads to outlay and - extrav-

7. Take a common ruled copy-book,
and at the top of a page let a confederate
inscribe Bounty Commands Esteem, or
some other moral sentiment. Copy this
on every line of the page, and when you
have done show it to the company.-
This experiment is not only interesting
in itself, but tends to improve the hand-
writing. ~ .

A Baby Elephant.-—The editor of
the N. Y. Sunday Times has seen the
baby elephant that was recently in that
city, and gives a pretty account of the
little creature.
"These baby elephants are very inter-
esting objects. They are perfectly for-
med thronghout, and differ from their
psrents only in size--but that difference
is so amazing that it becomes ludicrous
—-and when you see the “baby" walk-
ing to and fro under its mother, you can-
not resist the impulse to laugh at the od-
dity of the comparison.—And then the
bulky mother's care of her “baby" is so
human like and affectionate. Give the
baby an apple for instance. The moth-
er first takes it in her trunk, examines it
closely, and then returns it to her infant
to eat, having satisfied herself, apparent-
ly, of its innocuousness. And so with
everything else. The watchful care,
the jealous fondness, the assiduous and
untiring attention of the parent monster
is eminently worthy of imitation by ina-
ny a being who makes profession to 3
much greater share of intelligence.”
Union of Whigs and IE N.’ s.—The
Boston Journal thus insinuates I. pro-
ject :
"No intelligent observer can fail to
remark the affinity which exists between
the old Whig party. and the youthful
American party in certain lending prin-
ciples. It is the natural conservation of
the Whigs, and the radicalism of some
of the measures of the new party, more
than any real difference on leading
priuciles, which keep them apart. The
American party wauge just the elements
which the Whig party could furnish,
should they be brought to act in unison
in the approaching Presidential campaign
It wants a more liberal infusion of the
conservative element. It wants more
libei-elity and toleration, more dignity
and stability, and more available talent.
A union of effort between the Vlfhigs and
Americans to elect a President would
indeed be a formidable combination and
it would pobably be the only one by
which the re-election of General Pierce
could be defeated. Even this might. fall
of obtaining a result, so desirable, if the
Southern Americans insist on retaining
the twelfth section of the Philadelphia
platform. '
