Comes home with us to dine ;
He has :1 little slim rattan,
And innustnchetliiu and fine.
He us-.-u's ultiuy little watch,
With chain of wondrous length ;
To carry it, with seal to match,
Must need a deal of strength.
His eyes are large, of dreamy hue,
And he stares at me so,
I rt-ally n‘.on‘t know what to do,
- Au-I wish he were u’! my beau.
But .\liunma says, his Pu is rich, '
And keeps a couch and four :
And I must W0-ll young Hurry I-‘itch,
Or live-l despised and poor.
The mixer day he came to me,-
(Muinmu left us aloue—)
And dropping on one little knee,
Asked me to be his own.
He took me by such quick surpri.~:e,
I knew not what to do ;
He kissed my hnnd—I closed my e_veI—
is that the way to woo.‘
'l‘hey’\'e fixed at last, the wedding day,
Mainina and Mr. Fitch :

And (‘are not how nor which.

(fir In I-’liilade-lphia, last week, a thief
stepcd info a law office and slipcd on a
valuable Raglan belonging to a st.udeuf.,
with which he departed without defection.
A young man, whose sister had been in-
sulted by the aforesaid law student, was
lying in wait to flog the offender, and see-
iug the thief come out with the overcoat
ou, supposed him to be f.he victim he was
in search of, and gave him a terrible whip-
ping before tlicpolicemau stopped him, or
the mistake in the person was made known
by the cries for mercy of the thief, who
supposed the punishment was for his crime.
The young man was very much mortified

luu'ncrs, of soup-stone, are about to be
substituted in Germany for those now in
use made of iron or ln'ass.~. It is asserted
by the inventor, that while the ordinary
burner will corrode and by use increase,
by enlarging the vent of the burner, the
consumption of gas, the soup—sfoue gas-
bnruer will resist the action of the flame,
and by its property of absorption free’ the
light itself from carbonic impurities. The
inventor cuts the stone up iuf.o small, four-
sided slabs, put into hc-rmefriically scaled
cases, and exposed too slow fire until it
becomes rcd hof.. (jg-g-git care is exercis-
ed in fl_ius1'O£!Siillt5 the stone, lieca-is, it

to this heat for about two hours, slowly

b_oiled ip oil until they acquire a deep
brown color, when they are taken out,

If Simon Silr-o.\' prided lifmsrlf more
on one point than any ofhcrit was in the
mnuugemcnt of his household. F mm the
coinmcnccmcul. of his matrimonial life he
had endeavored to rcmlcr his will abso-
lute ; and he so far succeeded at last,
that be satisfied himself that his aim was
uccomplishc_d. Occasionally, it was true
that symptoms of rebellion would mani-
fest flu-n1:-“elves, but these be promptly
checked, out] his wife, after several years
of feeble resistance in the earlier part of
her marriage, quietly settled down he-
ueuth his iron rule, partly for the sake of
peace, and more particularly because she
could not help it. .
‘ Siloox was a prosperous trader, and
enjoyed a sufficient competency to render
them coniforfazble, if worldly possessions
have the power to produccthat happy
state. Aside from his imperious disposi-
tion, which did not confine itself to'the
limits of his own household, he was alto-
gether an agreeable man and a good
n_cig-hbor; nor could his lady complain
that he did not provide liberally for the
wants of the family.
An old friend of his boyhood, having
ainnssed an ample fortune in a southern
State, had a few months prior to our
date, purchased a br.=auf.iful tract of land
in the neighborhood, upon which he was
erecting a splendid mansion. By the
earnest solicitation of Silc-ox, he was in-
duced to remain with his fainily, at the
house of the. former, until his own resi-
dence should be prepared for them.
Morton Gray differed greatly from his
friend. He had been better educated,
and in his intercourse with the world had
maintained the reputation of a polished
gentleman, as well as an enterprising man
of business. In his fhmily relations -he
had sought to be loved, and in this un-
doubtedly took the best means to insure
a true authority. Nor did he think the
advice of his wife was beneath his notice,
but’ on the contrary often acted upon it
in preference to his own pre determined
purpose.
“ Tell me, Morton" said Silcox, one
day, “ if you are in the habit. of consult-
ing your wife about all your affairs ?”
“ Cqtniuly not, why, what do. you
mean ?”
“ I notice that in the finishing of your
liqI__1_se, she s_cei_u_s_ to have her way in al-
most r-very particulm'.”
A “ IVhy should she not, my friend ?”
“ Because a man should assert. his au-
thority, and have-his own way in spite of
everything.”
“ But my way in this respect. is to se-
cure her happiness and pleasure. A wo-
man you know, is compelled to remain in
the house nearly twice the number of
hours in each day that we are, and ex-
perience feaclics her what is adapted to-
couveuiencc and comfort. In these mat-
ters sbe is a much better juclgc than our-
selves.”
"A fig for a woman’s judgement, any
how I Why, if my wife had her way, the
house would be turned tnpsy-turvy, and I
should become a. bankrupt. in a very brief
space of time.”
“ I should think Silcox, that I was
talking with a double-distilled old bachel-
or, instead of a sensible nmrried man.”
“ I am master of my house, at all
events.”
“ And precious management you would
make of it, I think, without a mistress.”
“My wife is well enough as long as
prevail.”
“Take my word for it; Silcox, that
you would like her all the better if you
allowed her not to understand that so
plainly.”
“ It would not do to slack up the reins.
I have had altogether too much trouble
to establish myself as master, to risk the
the experiment.” -

“ A capital idea, and I should like 10

“ That would answer in extreme cases,
but I would not advise it as your mode.
There is still another and better way, I
think, to accomplish your purposes. In
the first place, strive to please him, and
let him see that you have some heart in
the effort. Shake off your apathy and
meet him with smiles when he returns
from business. Show him that you are
tryiug to be contented and happy, and
wish to make others so about you. If
you wish to change his determination, ad-
vise calmly, but do not dictate or appeal‘
to resist. Be true to this line of conduct,
and you will find it. to succeed earlier than
