"Was there ever such a jealous follow, always contriving some new test to sub ject my affections to !" said Julia Har vey to her sister, Mrs. Fanny Markham, as she handed her a letter. • It was from Julia's lover, Captain Paul Wilcox, an officer In an Infantry regi ment, who wrote to her to prepare to re ceive him. lie told her she would find him much changed, for he had been wounded in the leg and lost his left arm, and he had felt it his duty to say that he should not hold her to her engage ment, though he loved her as devotedly as ever. Now it happened that Julia had a correspondent in the army, from whom she discovered that the Captain had re ceived no injut les, and that his story was concocted purely as an additional teat of the devotedness of the (atone. EIZEM MEM "We'll pay him MT for this trick, Ju lia," said Mrs. Markham. "Come, and I'll lubtruct you how to give him change in his own coin." Shortly after the ladies had retired, Captain Wilcox, pluming himself on his strategem, was alone lu the drawing room. He buttoned his arm up in his coat, and left the slemie hang empty, while he counterfeited a baiting gait, and put a large piece of plaster on his left cheek to cover an imaginary sabre cut. In a few minutes Mrs. Markham ap peared. "Returned at last!" cried she, warmly shaking his hand. "My dear Paul!" "There's not much left of me—little better than half," said the soldier. "I left my poor arm in the West Indies." "Poor, dear Paul," said the lady. "And how is your leg ?" "Very poorly ; I am troubled with daily exfoliation of the bone."-- 479,M1 41 $1,293,038 9, 001,50002 .'Poor Julia!" she sighed. "She will be much affected by the change in me, will she not?" asked the brave Captain. "Oh, dear no; I was thinking of the change in her." "Change in her?" ' "What! haven't you heard?" "Not a word." "Ah ! I see—she was afraid to write It to you. She ham lost all her beauty.— Th—yon know she never was vacci nated." "Never vaccinated ?" "No—and she has had the amall-pox very badly. Poor Julia.- She has last the sight of her right eye. Her face is very much discolored. Her nose is ter rihiy red." "A red nose?" "Yea- R 'doesn't matter so muck about her eyes—she wears blue specta cles." "Blue spectacles and a red nose?" ex claimed the Oaptain. "But you don't mind that. Beauty is nothing," said Mrs. Markham, who was ravishingly beautiful herself. "You love Julia tot/her heart; you always told her so. As you are mained and disfigured yourself, why you can sympathize with each other. You will be a very well as sorted couple—three eyes and three arms between you:" "A red nose and blue spectacles!" "Hush l here comes Julia," said Mrs. Markham. "Don't appear so shocked.— Julia, my love, here's the Captain." The door opened, and Jullaentered.— She had painted her face most artistical ly, a pair of blue spectacles concealed her fine black eyes, but the marvelous feature of her face was her nose—it glowed with all the brilliancy of a car buncle. "Oh, dear Paul," sald she ; "poor dear Paul, how much you must have suf fered." "I have ontarm left for you to lean upon," said the Captain. "But you are lame. We can never dance the Schottische more?" "I don't know, but I can manage it all but the aide steps and hope," said the Captain ruefully. "But don't you And me hideous?" asked the fair one. "Not exactly," said the poor OaptaLu. "The tip of your nose Is rather a warm color, to be sure." "Oh. the doctor says it will settle Into a purple by-and-by." "Oh, be does, does he ?" said the Cap tain abstractedly. "Do you ,think I should Louk WM: with a purple nue?" asked "Speak not of it," said the Captain. "But tell me, when you heard of my in juries, were you Inclined to relinquish my hand Y" "Not for one moment." "Then forgive my deception," said the Captain. "Here is my left arm as sound as ever; I have no wound upon my cheek, and I can dance from dark till dawn." "How could you be so cruel," said Ju lia. "It is now my turn to ask if you are willing to fulfill your engagement 7" "With all my heart," said the Captain. "I am grieved for the loss of your beau ty, I confess; but your heart and mind are dearer than your person." "Excuse me for a moment," said the lady. "I must retire for a few minutes." In an instant she returned, radlautoin all the glory of her charms. "Paul," said she, "how do you like me now ?" "You are an angel," said the Captain, holding her in hill arms. "How could you treat me so cruelly with the red nose and spectacles?" "Sot a word of that," said the beauty. "We have friends in camp who exposed your jealous folly, and. it was only 'tit for tat.'" "I deserve it all," %aid the Captain, "and here I vow I am cured of Jealousy forever." When they were married, which fol lowed as s matter of course, they were pronounced the handsomest couple that ever submitted to the matrimonial noose, WHAT 18 A CORNSTALK?--"What is this God about whom you have been say ing so . much?" said an unbeliever to a preacher, after hearings discourse about God. "God is a spirit," reflied the preacher. "What is a spirit?" asked the skeptic, fiercely. "What is a cornstalk?" rejoined the preacher. "Why—why—why—a cornstalk is a cornstalk." "Yee, slr," said the preacher, "a !Wit is a spirit; and if you cannot tell me what a cornstalk is, which you have seen a thousand times, and know has an exist ence, why do ask me to tell you - what the Infinite Spirit is, or why do 'you doubt Ills existence?" The skeptic was dunib, as-all skeptics will be when they stand to be judged by that God whose name they blaspheme, and whose word they despise. "Err any butter here," asked a coun try customer, who walked into a dry goods establishment in a neighboring city, and looked much like a character who knew a great deal more of himself than he cared to tell. "No, sir," replied the merchant, "we don't wish to buy any." "Will you buy any eggs?" "No, sir; we keep a dry goods store here." "Sol- well mnybe you'd like to buy some chickens, fat as little pigs, and a mighty sight nicer too." "No, sir; I tell you we don't deal in anything but dry goods." "Couldn't I sell you a nice fat shoulder of pork ?" persisted the countryman. "I tell you, air, we deal exclusively in dry goods here." "Well, what will you give for dried peaches 1" A LADY residing on "Hemlock Side," went out shopping, promising her little son she would get him a cocoanut. She procured one with the husk on, in which state he had• never seen one. Ou arri ving at home, she gave It to the boy, who looked at it curiously, smiled, and laid it down. Presently ho said, "Mother, where's my cocoanut "I just gave it to you," she replied. Taking it up again, he viewed it contemptuously for a mo ment, and exelaimed—"That thing a cocoanut! I thought it was a waterfall !' ' A very natural mistake. A LADY found occasion to call upon a dentist and have her teeth filled. Among those tilled were two front ones, and when In a pleasant mood the lady's face shone with smiles, the polished gold glittered from the upper incisors. These were observed with admiration by her little niece, who, by the by, seriously re-, marked,— _ "Aunt Mary, I wish I had copper-toed teeth like yours." &MOULD like that beautiful spotted little tiger est," said a lady, while visit log a menagerie, recently "What for?" said her husband. "Oh, to have it for a pet, and to sleep with," said the lady. "What do.yon want to sleep with such a thing for?" "Why just to see the difference be- tween that and sleeping with a bear." The husband suddenly proposed to take a look at the monkey. "So you are going to teach a school," said a young lady to her aunt; "well, for my part, sooner than dO that, I would marry a widower with nine children." "I should prefer that myself," was the quiet reply, "but where is the wid ower?" A LADY, having accidentally broken a smelling-bottle, her husband, who was very petulent, said to her: "I declare, my dear, everything that belongs to you is more or less broken." . "True," replied he lady, for even you are a little cracked." A ws-rnror paper publishes the follow ing wonderfal description: "Lost or strade from the Scriber a sheep all over white—one leg was black and half his body—all persons shall receive five dol lars to bring him He was a she goat." A NEGRO returning from church was in ecstaciee over the sermon, declaring it was the beet he had ever heard. Some one asked him to repeat a part of it, when he scratched his whoolly head and replied, "neber mocks de preacher."

Yet nothing is more cow- I mon than to hear men finding fault con stantly with their particular business, and deeming themselves unfortunate be cause fastened to it by the necessity of gaining a livelihood. In this spirit men fret, and laboriously destroy all their comfort - in the work ;or they change I their business", and go on miserably, shifting from one thing to another, till the grave or, the poorhouse gives them a fit grip. But while ootaalonally a man Ogle In life because he is not In the piaoe fitted for his peculiar talent, It happens ten times oftener that failure results from neglect and even contempt of an honest business, A man should put his -heart into every thing that he does. There is not a profession that has not its peculiar cares and vexations. No man will escape annoyance by changing bus inesa. No mechanical business is alto gether agreeable. Commerce, in its end less varieties, is affected, like all other human pursuits, with trials, unwelcome duties, and spirit-tiring necessities. It is the very wantonness of folly for a man to search out the frets and burdens of his calling, and give his mind every day to a consideration of them. They belong to human life. They are inevitable.— Brooding, then, only gives them strength. On the other hand, a man has power glv-, en to him to shed beauty and pleasure upon the- homeliest toll, tf he is wise. Let a man adopt his badness, and iden tify it with his life, and cover it with pleasant associations; for God has given us imagination not alone to mate some poets, but enable all men to beautify homely things. Heart-varnish will cov er up Innumerable evils and defect.. Look at the good things. Accept your lot as a man does a piece of rugged ground, and begin to get out the rocks and roots to deepen and mellow the soil, to enrich and plant it. There is some. thing hi the most forbidding avocation around i which a man may twine pleas ant fan6se—out of which he may devel op an honest pride.— ET. S; Economiot. ZIOLD Oil. DEVIL. In the early days of the State of Indi ana, the capital was Corydon, and the annual session of the General Assembly usually brought together as wild a set of mad wags as could be found in the State, who had to rely on their own resources for amusement, for there were then few theatres, conceits or shows. These lov era of mischief had established a mock Secret Lodge, into which they would en tice such of were a little green, and take them through a variety of ridiculous cer emonies to the crowd. On one occasion, It being understood that a good natured, athletic young man, about half a simpleton, was to be initlat ed, the room was crowded. Judge Grass (it being a character in which he was pe culiarly happy) had consented to act the role of the Devil, and, to make the ser vices more impresalve, had pot on a false face, awl a large paper cap surmounted with horns, and with some chains in his hand, placed himself behind a screen. after taking the candidate through a, variety of ceremonies, Le was brought to a stand before the screen, and then told that be had to eonfeesall the crimes he had committed during his whole life,— The . candidate cool's/wick some trivial of fences, and declared that he had disclos ed all the crimes lie had ever committed. At this the pretended devil became furi ous, the chains rattled and he s hook them in the face of the terrified candidate, who, starting back in alarm , cried out : "Hold on, Af-m-m-mister if I m-m•must t-t-t-tell you, I d-d=did kiss 4-j-j-judge G-g-grass' w-V-wife c-e-cou ple of t-t-ttines I" The groaning ceased: . GENERAL LTA N, of Illinois. one of the itinerant stump speakers employed by the Radicals, recently "came to grief" In this wise: At one place, it is report ed, while he was making a speech in favor of Radicalism, a lady arose, and said, substantially : "Did you not, John, offer my husband money If be would go and join the Southern army? Did you not offer to equip him out for that pur pose?" "No," replied Logan. "Yon lie, John," was the response of the lady. "I am your sister, and the man you tried to get to Join the rebels was my husband." Fancy the General's feelings after that,. THE Alexandria (La.) Democrat re- Isles the following: Among the notice able incidents of the late election farce, we werean eye witness to the following: An old and faithful servant of one of our oldest citizens had just been ushered oat of the back door of the voting room in the Town Hall, when he was accosted in the street by his boss, and asked the question : "Well, Peter, have yon voted ?" Old Pete looked up wisely and remark ed, "No, fore God! Masser Joe, they took my ticket from me and put it in a candle box, and wouldn't let me vote." RAILROAD COMMUNICATION WITH WASHINGTON CITY.—The speedy con struction of the Railroad from Washing ton City to the Point of Rocks, there connecting with the Baltimore and Ohio, is now a fixed fact, beyond peradventure or dispute. The contracts for the con struction of the road have all been award ed, and the work is being actively and energetically pushed forward. The pro posed road will connect with the Balti more and Clio Railroad, but a few miles east of Weverton, the point of Junction of the WashlngtOn County Railroad, and when completed then) will be nearly an air line communication by railroad be tween Eagerstown and Washington City, and a chole between two routes of nearly equal length to Baltimore.—Free Prem.

He swim abandoned the belief that it would be Improper and dangerous to inoorpwate so large a mass of ignorance to the body politic., On the very last day of his life the question of reconstruction was dis cussed In a Cabinet meeting, and a plan partially arranged, looking to the adjust ment of the difficulties. There was no clause incorporating negro author in it. At a Cabinet meeting held very shortly after the accession of President Johnson, the same subject came up, and the Cabinet were a unit then against negro suffrage. Secretary Stantou, In his evidence before the Judiciary Com mittee, says: The President expressed his views very clearly and distinctly. I expressed my views, and other members of the Cabinet expressed their views. The ob jection of the Prekident to throwing the franchise open to the colored people m). peered to be fixed, and I think every member of the Cabinet assented to the arrangement as it was specified In the proclamation relative to North Carolina. After that. I do not remember that the subject was ever discussed in the Cabl not. The insane project of making voters of all the barbarian negroes of the south . came from Congress. That body fa alone responsible for the Iniquitous and de structive system which Is now working ruin In the South.

Intel. HELPER, the author of the "Impend log Crisis," is out lu a long letter, de nouncing the Radical Congress and peaty In the most unmeasured terms. The fol lowing extract from the. letter will hid!. este the views of Helper upon the effbrta now making by the Radical party to Afrieanize the the country. It is proper to remark In this connection that Helper still claims to be a member of the domi nant party of the nation.
