MISSES
Unlucky Vulentil Venue tricked Mtn
A fashion with the ladies this is. •
I'm not amiss; but I'm a victim
To a whole, host of wicked misses.
Miss Fit supplies my boots and coats,
And vain is all my indignation;
My cash-book and my gold and notes
Are managed by Miss Calculation.
Miss Take has played me many a trick ;
Miss Spell will always write my letters,
Miss Trust declines to give me tick ;
Miss Mannge lets off all my debtors.
Miss Print is wont to spoil my rhyme—
A very wicked habit is hers;
And if they quote me any time,
Miss Quote's the girl to use the scissors.
When Chrismas bumpers overflow,
And bells ring loud from many a minster,
I can't get near to Miss L. To,
Savo with some very ancient spinster.
Well, easy 'tie down hill to glide,
And vain the Perms to importune;
So let me wed my bonny bride—
A charming child she is—Miss Fortune.

Our Correspondence.
Ens. Guam :—Feeling like a repent
ant truant, I come to you begging
your pardon—you paragon of inken
justice. This morning when your
ever-welcome sheet was handed me, I
had the blues—very blue—but the
touching and melting clipping "Don't
Stay Long," swept the shade of
troubled thought from my brow, and
silently did 1 commune on woman's
love, and in inspiration
.seized my pen,
and this, 0 Globe! do take as my
humble offering :
Scene First—Honey-moon.
"Don't stay long, dear husband."
From the pallid lips dropped the
yearning speech, a manly arm encir
cles the taper waist, and after the cus
tomary crushing- of lips he eald r uL-het,
I won't"—and didn't.
Scene Second—Moon Waning
"Don't stay long, husband."
I soo the lovely light of affection
beaming in her eyes—the music of her
voice dies away, leaving the world
sad. "Have *my dinner in time,"
growls the brute: How can she? Is
it not Now York Ledger day, and
musn't she discover what saved the
revely "Clara" from tho foul "Don Al
phonso Brazos ?" ,She livcth'pn intel
lectual food—romantic Im-relies—sigh
drawn beverages—so good,'so fair, so
innocently confiding—so good to read
about! How cruel that such lovely
buds should ever be culled from the
family hothouse by bold, bad; practi
cal men! I

As if it Over ! You go through the,
farce of saying, "I'm not very hungry,

ponderous -'editorials;• consider the
financial state of the country, read over

how appropriate that

came my privilege to pay her bills. At
last I'm seated; 1 'know my bills—
butchers, bakers, provision dealere,
milk-man and butter-man's—are quite
as heavy as my neighbor Jones' (who
has five Joneses), and all I know of
their visits is in the unpalatable con
glomerations gotten up for me under
the head of "meals." I'm not rich; I
cannot afford a cook; I gave my dear
an enterprising German girl to help
her, whose only knowledge consists of
knowing nothing but obedience. My
wife is now teaching her "crocheting,"
to put up her hair "waterfall," and
Curing her of her "nasty German
ways" of rolling up her sleeves and
forgetting her feet were intended to be
"gaitered" during pavement washing.
(She wears my wife's gaiters.)
State of Exasperation,
"Don't stay long, husband."
No, don't.—hurry, fly—l do. 'Tie so
pleasant when a friend comes home
with yon—an old schoolmate—practi
cal, straightforward, unassuming. You
say, "Dear, entertain Harry until I can
be with him." You return. Harry
looks wretched. You listen. "Do you
think Lucille Western cries naturally
in East Lynne r and "How little taste
our minister, Xi% Clark, has. Why
last Sabbath he looked like a perfect
fright, with his collar all awry, &o."
Harry gently pulls his to remove all
semblance of wrinkle (Ho never at ,
tends theatres or church, and is won
derfully- indifferent as to his personal
appearance.) I come to the rescue.
Well, he stays and sups with me. We
I

talk of our jolly days gone by. We
are boys again; Hew the mad capers
come teeming up, and we laugh at our
old castles, built by youth's hopes and
destroyed by man's experience. A
hearty band-shaking, and promise of
again calling, and he's . off—because
he's on the "don't stay long" list.
And Ohl zounds, how I catch it when
I enter the presence of Mrs.—!
"And so that's one of your particular
friends? Why he's intolerable. I
talked to him of all the topics of the
day, and ho sat there the embodiment
of silence. How he does lack• culture,
and he's so awkward. Did you notice
his feet? Why he didn't. know how
to arrange them—first on One side of
my best chair; and then on the other.
I'm sure their scratched and ruined.
For my part ,I can't see what's amus

were entirely too anxious to know if
Miss Stephens was married.; - and then
you both going into extatic praise of
her! Had I been the lady discussed,
I'm sure 'twould not be to enroll mo
among the ange!ic. I now see why I
meet such uniform coldness at your'
hands; and I tell you I never want
that odious man to come hero again.
Any society but mine Oh dear! when
unit girls learn that their only happi
ness consists in their independence ?"
A cry, a quick rushing front the room,
and I was left, wondering why we aro
always at odds. •
I tell you I'm not happy; and, al
though I've as yet obeyed the injunc
tion "don't stay long," I find the com
panionship I gave up when I took to
myself "my loving one" commences to
have for me an attraction I can hardly
resist. I pray I may, for should I not,
why then I fear -me the "don't stay
long" will fall upon unheeding ears. I
believe my wife loves me as well as
she can; but, unfortunately for me,
she has misinterpreted the ceremony
that the ignorant suppose makes of
two, ono, and understands that I only
am "to love, honor and obey," and
-fight - it - out on - that liner Young men!
young women ! enter not into this
state called "matrimouial," until every
vestage of romance has been eradicated
from your natures. I warrant the
"don't stay long, husband," will be•

of our attachments.., Oh ! for practi.

this sickly-sentimentality!

A MAN OF EXPERIENCE.
CONCERNING 5ER510N3.7-Thorn is
great deal of pulpit preparation and
pulpit performance, "word upon word,
lino upon line," page upon page; and
yet, measuring the great mass of
preaching, there is scarcely anything
the people buy and pay for that so
effervesces. how few persons of the
congregation can ' remember oven the
text of sermons,! "0, we had such a
b-o-a-utiful sermon this morning—it
was splen•did." "Ab, glad to boar it;
what, , was the subject?" "Well—
y
w-h —the subject ? W-h-y, w-el-I,
now I declare,
let me see—the sub
ject ? What's this the text was ?
now, really, what makes me so forget
ful lam sure I thought I could re
member that—but it has slipped my
mind."
And that's the way it goes. Ser
mons are generally, so oily that they
slip the people's minds. Why not
rough them alittlemake them rasp
ish—so that somebody will bo rubbed
against the grain—stirre3 up—tender
ed—so impressed that'aticast the text
and theme and leading thoughts and
points may bo remembered 7 Dr. Cuy
ler speaks of sermons that thavo tone
and touch to them, and his words are
apropos : "A poor, juiceless sermon
ought never to be preached the first
time; but a meritorious, savory dis
course may be made all the better on
a second delivery. Dr. Addison Alex
ander preached his glorious sermon on
the 'Faithful Saying' until he wore out
the manuscripts; and Dr. Griffin re
peated his elaborate discourse on the
'Worth of the Soul' ninety times 1 Ho
never wearied of it—nor did his audi
ence either. Tho congregations change
constantly, and memories are leaky.
A first-rate practical sermon ought to
be repeated (with extempore improve
ments:. about once in five years. Fewer
sermons and richer should be a settled
pastor's aim. Whitfield - attained great
finish and power by giving the same
discourses over again through all his
missionary tours."
Lo' TIME.—Let any man pass an
evening in vacant idleness, or oven in
reading some silly tale, and compare
the state of his mind, when he goes to
sleep or gets up next morning with its
state some other day when he has
spent a few hours is going through
the proofs by facts and reasonings of
some of the doctrines in natural soi
ems°, learning truths wholly now to
him, and satisfying himself by careful
examination of the grounds on which
known truths rest, so as to be not only
acquainted with the doctrines of them
selves, but able to show why he be
lieves them, and to prove before others
that they aril, true, will find as great a
difference as can exist in the same be
ing—the difference between looking
back upon time , unprofitably wasted,
and time spent in self-improvement;
he will feel himself in one case listless
and dissatisfied; in the other comfort
able and happy. In the one ease, if
he did not appear to himself humble,
ho at least will not have earned any
claim to his own respect; in the other
case ho will enjoy a proud conscious
ness of having by his own exertions
become wiser, and therefore a more
exalted nature.
rBo not afraid of hard study; it
is the price of learning.

The Revenge,
The coffin was a plain one—a poor
miserable pine coffin. No flowers on
its top, no lining of the rosewhite satin
for the pule brow; no smooth ribbons
about the coarse shroud. The brown
hair was laid decently back, but there
was the crimped cap, with its neat tie
beneath .the chin. The sufferer from
cruel poverty smiled in her sleep; she
had found bread, rest and health.
"I want to see my mother," sobbed a
poor child, as the city undertaker
screwed down the top.
"You can't—get out of the way, boy;
why don't somebody 'take the brat?"
"Only let me see her one minute ?"
cried the hopeless Orphan, clutching
tho side of the charity box, and as he
gazed into the rough face, anguished
tears streamed rapidly down the cheek
on which , no childish bloom over lin
gered. Oh iit was pitiful to hear him
cry, "Only once, let me see my mother
only once."
Quickly and brutally the hard
hearted monster struck the•boy away,
so that he reeled with the blow. For
a moment the boy stood panting with
grief and rage, his blue eyes distended,
his lips sprang apart, a fire glittered
through his tears, as ho raised his puny
arm, and with a most unchildish ac
cent screamed, "When I am a man,
I'll kill you for that."
There was a coffin and a heap of
earth between the mother and the poor
forsaken child—a monument much
stronger than granite, built in his bey
heart to the memory of the heartless
deed.
The Court House was crowded to
suffocation.
"Does any ono appear as this man's'
counsel?" asked the Sudge.
There was silence when ho finished,
until; with his lips tightly pressed to
gether, a look of strange intelligence
blended with haughty reserve upon his
handecime features, a young man
stepped forward with a firm tread and
kindly eye, to plead for the erring and
friendless. He was a stranger, but
from his first sentence there was a si-•
lence. The splendor of his genius mil
tranced—convinced.
The man who bad not a friencl was
acquitted.
"May.,God bless you, air, I cannot."
"I want no thanks,":,replied the
stranger, with icy coldness.
"I=4 believe you are unknown to
me."
"Man ! will refresh Your memory,
Twenty : years ago you struck a bro
ken-hearted boy away from his moth
er's poor coffin.., I was'that poor boy."
The man turned livid.
"Have you reseued me, then, to take
my lifer" .
"I have a sweeter revenge; I have
saved the life of 'a man whose brutal
deed has rankled in
,my breast for
twenty years. Go I 'and remember
the tears of a friendless child !"
The man bowed his head in shame
and went out from the presence of a
magnanimity as grand to him Rs in.
comprehensible, and the noble young
lawyer felt God's smile, in his soul for-

MERCANTILE MAXIMS.—Tbo way to
get credit is to be punctual. The way
to preserve, it is not to use it riniCh.
Settle often; have short accounts.
Trust to no man's appearance—they
arc deceptive—perhaps assumed for
the purpose of obtaining, credit. Be
ware of gaudy exterior; rogues usual.
ly dress well. The rich• are plain mon.
Trust him, if any orie, who carries 'but
little on his back. 'Never trust him
who flies into a passion on being .dun
nod ; make bim • pay quickly, if there
bo virtue in the law. Be satisfied, be
fore you give' credit, that those you
give it to are safe men to bo trusted.
Sell your goods at a small advance,
and never misrepresent them, or those
whom you once deceive will beware of
you the second time. Deal uprightly
with all men, and they will repose con-.
fidence in you, and soon become one of
your permanent customers. Beware of
him,,who is,an office seeker. Men do
not usually Avant an office where there
is anything to do. A. man's affairs are
rather low when he seeks office for
support. Trust no stranger. Your
goods are better than doubtful char
ges. What is character worth, if you
make it cheap . crediting all alike ?
Agree before hand with every man
about to do a -jobi-and, if large, put it
into writing. If any decline then quit
—or bo,cheated. Though you want a
job ever much, make all_eure at the
onset ; and in eases at all doubtful,
make sure of a guarantee. Be not
afraid to ask it, it is the best o!
sibility; for, if offence be taken, you
have escaped a loss. .

tairA little incident occurred on
Wednesday morning in one of the cars
of the Hartford and New Haven Rail
road, which gave a gratifying proof of
the deference paid by young men to
the wishes of their ladies, and their
readiness to supply a want as soon as
it becomes known. The car in question
was nearly filled, as the ears are apt to
be in this, day of travel. Its floor near
the door was covered with, tobacco
juice, as, alas E ear floors are lik , ely,,to
be in this day when the use of• the vile
weed so much prevails. At one of the
way stations a well dressed lady enter
ed the car, looked with unconcealed
disgnst at the pools of • yellow and sli
my juice on the - floor, then raised her
dress slightly and picked her way
noroas, The only ' vacant sitting in
the car was on a seat occupied by a
young man, who at onee made room
for the lady by his side. As soon as
; she was seated, with a look of relief,
mingled with one _of solicitude, the
lady asked her seatmate, "Do you
chew tobacco ?" "No, ma'am," was
the reply, "but I can get you a chow
if you like."

gathering, she 'felt herself suddenly
and violently seized by the shoulders,
This she well knew was a declaration

people; but who the man was she
could not discover, since the hut was
quite dark. There being; to her knowl
edge, no men in the 'village besides hei
brothers, she at once suspected that it
must be one of these. _She broke from
him, and running away, smeared her
hand with soot and oil. Upon return

and at this' time she blackened ono

A lighted taper being brought seen
afterward, her suspicions wore con
