Lafftte was a native of Bordeaux. He kept for several years a store on Royal , where I took ruy meals and fre quently met him. He was a handsome man; with black hair and eyes; fair com plexion, and wore, as was thou fashion able, narrow whiskers coming down each cheek and around the chin. He was an excellent linguist, and at. the table would converse fluently with individuals from every portlnEurope—with tbeßordelaia in his native patois; with English, Span ish, Italians, each in thelrown language. ButFrenob was theianguage becoinmou ly used, and this he spoke grammatically and like a man of education, but always a patois accent. Lafltte commenced his uhlawfui career by smuggling during the embargo. Amongothertbings; he smuggled in ne groes, which be sold chiefly in the Laf ourche country; some of whom now (18631 still remain alive. He subsequently fitted out three vessels as privateers, under the flag of the Republic of Columbia, and at tacked the commerce of Spain. In six months the Columbian Government was changed, Lafitte’a papers were no longer valid and hislargeoutfllbecame probably a dead h.ss. He continued bis cruises, and became a pirate.> I believe he,attacked none but Spanish vessels. I remember when three Spanish vessels were biought into Caillou Islands, near Last Island 1 ; they were laden, with a certain Spanish wine,and the citizens of Attackapas went out to see them, and purchased part of the cargo. In 1814, when the English made their descent upon the coast of Louisiana, they .. juue an ofler to Lufltte to join them, which' he refused. He sent their propo sals to John R. Grimes and Abner Dun can, volunteer aids to General Jackson prominent citizens, who had known La bile in hit; reputable days, and he offered through them to lend his services to aid the Amei lean cause. These gentlemen cautiously introduced the subject to Jackson, and produced his papers, and induced him to consider his offer. Latttte stipulated fora pardon for himself and bis men—sixty in number. It was set tled that they should surrender. He in formed Jackson that he must be sur rounded by a number three times larger than his own band. *My men, 7 said he, ‘will never give U P A there are only two to one.' All was done as was agreed upon. He ,was surrounded; he surrendered, ws;s pla ced in prison, and his pardon granted.— To him and to his men was given the command of some arms at the fortillca tions. They were good gunners, and their pieces made great havoc.amoug the enemy. They were placed near the swamp; the enemy advancing diagonally, a little towards the centre, the pirates' guns had full sweep of them. After the battle ol Now Orleans, but little is known of Lalitle and his men.— They, determined ■to seek some land where the stories of their crime hud not penetrated. They quitted New Orleans and went to Galveston Island—some say for the purpose of colonizing it, others say to dig up treasures buried there. The last is improbable ; men of their profes sion are notoriously reckless and prodi gal of their means ; pirates and robbers never save. If they had treasures to bury it is safe to conjecture that they would select some spot more handy to their usual haunts than Galveston Island, when in adverse weather it must have taken several days to make the trip, and which, from its very remoteness, must have been exposed to be plundered by faithless members of the baud. . From Galveston island it is uncertain whither they went. It is said that Lafitte sailed lor Bouth America. The absence of all intelligence is a proof that he was ashamed of his past career, and changed his name and profession ns he bad inten ded, and led a new life. Lafitte was no sailor; he never com manded u vessel. He equipped them, paid their expenses, sold the cargoes of captured vessels, and was the. financial manager. The vessels at sea were com manded by a captain employed by him, named Dominique, a rare and skilled sailor, small, fair, w.ilh a kind and plea sant face, a perleot picture of Pooper’s Bed Eover. A citizen of. St. Martin, the late John F. Miller, related to me the following: That once he carried into Cuba from New Orleans a cargo of flour, which he sold for twenty thousand dol lars ; but bills of exchange were not In use between Havana and New Orleans, or at any rate he could procure none, and that he was forced to bring back the money in the schooner that had taken the flour; that he packed {he dollars care fully in orates like oranges, taking a few filled the latter for use at sea, and for his household at home. When near the coast of Florida, bis vessel was boarded by pirates, and Dominique, whom Mr. Miller had known in New Orleans, step ped aboard. He greeted Mr. Miller kind ly, and this gentleman, as may bo gues sed, was nil courtesy. ‘Well, Miller, what have you got on board to day? 1 ‘Nothing but a little rum and a few crates of oranges.’ ‘Why, didn't you sell that flour?’ ‘Yes,Dominique; butyoudld not think I was going to bring the money back while you’ve got it vessel? And 1 sold the flour badly; it was poor speculation. I wish I had let it alone. What I made 1 left in Cuba,' , •Weil, let me see.’ Mr. Miller led down and showed him the crates, and even opened one, contain ing oranges, of course. •Well, Mr. Miller, you have nothing that I want, except a few oranges and a little rum for my men. Let me have those and X will lot you go on.’ With,the greatest, alacrity Mr. Miller had, the oranges and rum handed Into the boat, which now departed with Dom inique and those of his men who had ac companied him. ■ Years passed away; the war with Bug land broke out. Dominique surrendered the band, and being an excellent gunner, was placed in command of two Important guns. It was some days ere the English K. CORM MAN, Carlisle. CARLISLE. PA., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 187 L Ipflctial LAFITTEi the pirate advanced. Mr. Miller was stationed in another part of tho lines. Quo afternoon he sauntered down to Dominique’s sta tion, Seated there upon some timber, they conversed familiarly, Dominique made some allusion to Mr. Millers visit' to Cuba; the other laughed. ‘Dominique, do you know 1 cheated'you then? Those were crates of gold aud silver, except those I gave you. I had twenty thousand dollars in tho others.” Dominique was silent for a moment or two; then, to Mr. -Miller’s surprise, ho seized his hand ami shook it heartily* ‘I :aWglad:df.it^Mf^ailli,ec;ls,;iiei:fixclaimed ,. in a* low, impressive tone, ‘if my had known that, ydu would have walked tho plank ! I could not have restrained them. They would have robbed you, killed you, and sunk your vessel.* Dominique lived-till a few years past in the parish of Iberville. He was not known, and lived unmolested and to a great age. ANNIE LAURIE. The following historical sketch in re relation to the origin and authorship of a very popular song, will bo interesting to a great many readers: Nearly everybody has sung, or heard, sung, the beautiful bi\llad of ‘‘ Annie Laurie.! 1 Annie Laurie was no myth. Nearly two hundred years ago Sir Robert Laurie, of Maxwelton, in Durnfrieshire, quaintly wrote In his family register the following words’: “ At the pleasure of the Almighty God, ray daughter, Annie Laurie, was horn upon the 10th day of December, 10S2, about six o’clock in the morning, aud was baptized by Mr. Geo. Hunter, of Gleacairn.” Annie’s mother was named Jean Riddle, to whom Sir Robert was married upon the 27th day of July, IGB-1, in the Tron Kirk of Edin burgh, by Mr. Annan, was, also recorded by bor father himself. Posterity owes to Mr. William Douglass, of Fingland, in Kirkcudbrightshire, (who wooed but did not win the capricious Annie,) the song of “Bonnie Annie Laurie,” wherein he celebrates the beauty and transcendent perfection of the.maid of Maxwelton. — Poetic justice should have required-that Annie would have rewarded with her fair hand the poet-lover, who was,deter mined to make her name Immortal; but as it transpired she preferred another, and ri richer suitor, a Mr. Alexander Fer guson, of Craigdarroch, and him she at length married. The William Douglass here mentioned is supposed to be the original of the song of Willie was a Wanton Wag,” and itis related of him that, after'having been refused by Annie Laurie, he married Miss Elizabeth Clark, of Glenboig, lu Galloway, by whom ho had a family of four sons and two daugh ters. Thus is it, that-while the song of “ Annie Laurie” lives from ago to age, tho names of all concerned with the ori ginal of it, survive .in the recital of the romantic incident. EXCITING ADVENTURE ON THE ALPS. Two gentlemen from Bald aud three from Glarus, recently made an excursion into the valley of Lindt, for the purpose of ascending the Todi, orPlz Ruslin (11,- 886 feat,) one of the most conspicuous of the mountains in eastern Switzerland. At three o’clock in the morning, the par ty left the Grunhorn Hut, by the Swiss Alpine Club, where they had passed the night, the Foehn making the snow so soft, that their feet sank deep into it at each step, on reaching a very deep and wide crevasse, which stopped their fur ther progress,' two of their party went some, way along it to see if it grew any narrower, but their weight caused a large mass of snow on which they were stand ing to give way, and they- were both pitched headlong into the opening. Their companions, who were sufficient ly near to see the accident, were stupifl eci with horror, and it was some time be fore they became sufficiently collected to form any plan for delivering ‘ their un fortunate friends, if they were still alive, of which they entertained but slight hopes, owing to the depth they had fallen. On cautiously drawing near the edge of the precipice, however, and shouting dowu they at length heard a feeble cry, which assured them that both at least were not killed, and being pro vided with stout cords, they jolnedsev eral together, sons to make a rope eighty leer long, and threw it down, but it was found to be much too short. They then added another piece sixty feet long, aud ou lowering the rope once more were delighted to find that if reached the bot tom and became tightened, assuring (hem that it had been caught, hold of by their friends. After more than ah hour’s labor they succeeded in drawing both gentlemen from their dreadful position, who stated that they owed their safety to the softened snow which the wind had drifted into the crevasse, enabling them to break the violence of their fall. —Swiss Times. WOMAN AT TWENTY-ONE. When a young girl reaches the age of 15 or 1G years, she begins to think of the mysterious subject of matrimony, a state tlio delights of which her youthful imag iuatlou shadows forth in the most capti vating forms. It is-made the topic of light and incidental discourse among her companions, and it is recurred to With iiicreaslnglntarestevery tlmeltis brought upon the tapis. When she grows a little older she ceases to smaller about matri mony, and thinks more intently on the all-important subject. It engrosses her thought by day, her dreams by night, and she pictures to herself the felicity of being wedded to the youth of whom she cherishes a secret but consuming flame. She surveys herself in a mirror, and, as it generally tells a flattering tale, she turns from it with a pleasing conviction that her beauty will enable her to cou quer’the heart of the most obdurate, and that whoever else may die in a state of ‘single blessedness’ she is destined to be come, ere many years roll by, a happy bride. From the age of IS to 20 is 'the very witching time’ of female life. During that period the female heart Is more sus ceptible to the soft and tender influences of love than of any other; and we appeal to our fair readers to say, whether, if in clination was alone consulted in the bus iness, more marriages would not take place during the ticklish season than in any by which it is preceded or followed. It is the grand climax of love ; and she who passes it without entering into the state of matrimony, may chance to pass several years of her life ere she Is caught In the meshes of Hymen. The truth Is, that the majority of women begin to bo more thoughtful when they have turned the ago of 20. The giddiness of the girl gives place to the sobriety of the woman. Frivolity is succeeded by reflection ; and reason reigns where passion previously hold undisputed sway. The care and the anxieties of life press themselves more palpably ; they tend to weaken the effect of the sanguluo anticipation of unmlug led felicity in the marriage state, which the mind bad formed in ita.youthful day dreams. In short, to use a common phrase, let women after twenty look be fore they legp. A teacher in a school that stood on the bunks of a small river, _once*wishod to communicate to his pupils an idea of faith. While ho was trying to explain the meaning of the word, a small covered bout hove In sight. Seizing upon the in cident for an illustration, ho exclaimed : '■ f I were to tell you that there was a leg ol mutton in that boat you would believe me, would you not, without even seeing it yourselves?" ‘‘Yes, sir,’* replied the scholars,. ‘‘Well, that la faith,’’ said the teacher. The next day, in order to tost their recol lection of the lesson, ho inquired: — ••What is faith?” “ A log of mutton In a boat," was the answer, shouted from every part of the school room; MARTIAL WOOING. A second lieutenant, by tbp name of W , was assigned to our regiment, who was born mid ‘raised 1 in the wilds of Indiana; and although' he possessed, naturally, fair Intellectual faculties* yet had received no education save what had been Imparted to him in the rudiameu tary schools of the rural districts along the Wabash Valley. His vernacujar was reddudaut with the patois of his nativity, and widely divergent from the acceptation of our standard lexicograph ers._He did* not,-ho\vejeem_;at_^alJ~ scUoTasCTc deilciehcies, and for a good while continued to make use of • his anomalous idoms, the oddity of which afforded us no little amusement. The ,young man evinced no spirit of se gregation, but. was disposed to be quite social with his brother officers, aud was especially fond of ladies’. society. He visited them often, and his original manner of giving expression to his sen timents diverted them uota little, he was always received kindly, aud invited to repeat his calls. About this time a young lady from the city of New York, a Miss H , visited the family of one of the officers, and she remained some mouths with us. She was highly accomplished, pretty, aud exceed ingly animated, piquant aud attractive. -Moreover, she' possessed a most genial, amiable, aud kind'disposition; hut, like many others of the fuir.aex, her fondness for admiration occasionally carried her so far that tier friends very justly charged her with having a dash of coquetry in her composition. Besides this, she had a decided penchant for badinage and fun. No sooner hud she been presented to Lieutenant W ■■ than at a glance she comprehended his character, aud at ouae brought her heaviest metal to bear upon the exceedingly vulnerable citadel of his heart; and in a twinkling made so great a breach therein that the poor fellow had' £o surrender at discretion. Forthe.firat time in bis life he found himself most desperately enamored. He repeated his visits day. after day for several weeks; aud the young lady, im pelled by a spiritof flirtation* encouraged his suit while he was in her presence, but invariably took occasion, as soon as his back was turned, tq detail to her young lady companions, everything that transpired during the ii*<krviewB. The verdant wooer, not having the faintest conception that he was being made tho'vlctlm of misplaced affection, persevered in bis courtship,'and received such encouragement as>to call forth from some very emphatic declarations of his admiration. He even went so far, upon one occasion, as to exclaim, * he'd be dog ond cf he didn't believe that she war a ann-gclW' This truly frank and sincere but un ique avowal of sentiment set the waggish young lady nearly frantic with suppres sed desire to shout with laughter; yet she controlled herfeatures aud preserved a serene cast of countenance; and she. even managed to raise a semblence of a blush while casting upon her lover from behind her fan a beuigant, coquetish smile of satisfaction, as she coyly respoh-, (led ‘Oh, oh! Now, my dear Mr* VV , how can you say so? You make me blush —indeed you do. I cannot believe you are sincere. Xam afraid you are.a gay Lothario, Mr. \Y .’ Then tapping" him very gently upon the shoulder with her fan, and bestowing upon him .a most bewitching smile, she added, 'Are you, not a gay Lothario , Mr. W ?* This question was rather a poser to the enamored ‘Hoosier,’ who had never be fore hoard of the person alluded to la her strategic rejoinder. Nevertheless, while pressing his hand on what ho conceived to be the region of the heart, but which, accoiding to the location assigned that organ by anatomists, was a little too low, he replied, ‘X doi»’t mind bearin’ toll o’ that thar individual afore, Miss ; but I sorter reckon lie’s no kin o’ mine. An’ you am a ann-gell; I swar you is. n Other equally forcible assertions of his devotion were made during this inter view, all of which were received by the young lady in so gracious a manner as to afford him the most encouraging hopes of ultimate success. Of course the entire conversation was detailed" by Miss H with much zest to her associates, all of whom she invited to be at her quarters on, the following evening., A short time before, Mr. VV — had asked for and beenpromiseda special audience, for the purpose, as she thought, of making her a formal tender of his heart and baud. Accordingly, at the appointed hour, they all assembled and were quietly euscoiised iu an apartment adjoining the sitting room, with the door slightly ajar, &.o that they could distinctly hear every word that was said. teoon after the Lieutenant made' his appearance in full uniform, aud was cor dially received by hia sweetheart, who asked' him to take a'seat near her. and enterdd-,into seemingly a very confiden tial loud conversation with him, which 'soon led him to approach the subject of his dearest aspirations,— Placing himself upou his knees in front of her, with a most tender, anxious aud beseeching expression of countenance aud voice, but with considerable mani festation of diffidence,-he said, * Would ye like fur tojine the army, Mis 3 II /' ‘No/ replied she, using his very words, aud imitating hia peculiar diction:.‘X don’t think I’d like fur to jiuo the army, Mr. W ?* At this juncture screams of vociferous laughterburst forth from the mischievous girls in the adjoining apartment, and in which the cruel Miss , no longer able to control herself, unmercifully joined, which caused the discomllttod lover to .leap to his feet in great confusion, seize his cap, and .rush from the room; and I don’t think he ever afterward attempted to pay his addresses to any lady. The Cholera.— According to Dr. Juo, G. Peters, in the New York Medical Journal , every outbreak of the Asiatic cholera beyond the confines of British India may be traced back to Hindostan, through a contlnuos chain of human be ings affected with the disease, or through water contaminated or articles stained with their dejecta. This article shows how festivals and’ pilgrimages serve as the distributors of this fearful contagion, catching it up from its original seat scat tering abroad over the world; But what most impresses a western reader of those descriptions of Eastern life is the absolute defiance of all sanitary laws and hygienic condition of those crowded regions. In the villages the huts are huddled together in masses, and pushed up to the very edge of the pondspr tanks ; their projedting eyes often meet; while the Intervening spaces,’lmpervious to the rays of the sun, are converted to the unclean purposes, and used by both sexes in common. The pools of liquid filth, often covering 130,000 square feet, by actual measurement, are found in some of these villages. More over we are told that there is no such thing as a pump in all India, and that all their drinking water is drawn from the largo ponds, or pools, or tanks, or from open wells, and is always carried about In leather bags, made of sheep skin, which can never bo properly clensed, and are often in use lor several years. And this filthy liquid is used by the natives to dilute the milk whioli is sold for the public consumption. A man broke a chair over his wife's head a week or two ago. When ho got to jalli and the, clergyman uudortook to talk;wlth him, ho displayed a good deal of penitence. He said lie was very sorry he had permitted his anger to obtain the mastery of him, and to suiter him to do such an act, because it was a good chair, one of those good old-fashioned Windsor chairs, which was an heir-loom in his family, and he never could replace it. A YOUriO lady thought it would be in teresting to faint at an evening party recently, when ouoof thecorapany began bathing her head with vinegar, upon which she started up, and exclaimed “For goodness' sake put nothing on that will spoil the color of my hair!” ♦ VOL; 58.-NO. 16. JENKINS DOES TO A PIC-NIO. Marin Ann recently determined to go to n pic-nlo. Maria Ann la my wife— unfortunately. She bad planned it to go It alone, so far as I was concerned, on that pic-nio' ex cursion ; but when I heard about it, I doterifdne'd to assist. She prentended she was very glad; X don’t believe she was. ‘ It will do you good to get away from your work a day, poor Jpilow. she said ; ‘and we shall so much enjoy a eoolmoru d'ng ride.onJhejjnratiind dinner in the' -woods-;’ —- On the morning of that day, Maria Ann got lip at 5 o’clock. About three minutes later she disturbed my slumbers, and told mo to come to breakfast. X told her I wasn’t hungry, but it didn’t make a bit of difference, I had to get up. The sun was up for an hour; I bad no idea the sun began business so early in tlie morning, but there he was. ‘Now, said Marla Ann, ‘we must fly around, for the cars start at half-past six. Eat all the breakfast you can, for you won’t get any thing more befoie noon.’ I could not eat anything at that time lathe morning, and it was well I could not, for I had all I could do. There was ice to be pounded to go around the pail of ice cream, and the sandwiches to be out, and I thoughtlshould never get the legs of the chicken fixed so that I could get the cover on the big basket. Maria Ann flew around and piled up. groceries for mo to pack, giving directions to the girl about taking cafe of the house, and putting on her dress all at once. There is n deal of energy in that woman, per; haps a trifle too much. At twenty minutes past 0 I stood on tlie front steps with.a.basket on one arm and Marla Ann’s waterproof on the oth er, and a pail in each hand, and a bottle of vinegar in my coat-skirt pocket. There' was a camp .chair hung on me somewhere, too, but I forget just where. ‘Now,’ said Maria Ann, ‘we must run or we shall not oatoh the train.’ ‘Maria Ann,’ said I, ‘that is a reason able idea. How do you suppose I can run with all th(s freight ?’ ‘You must, you brute. You always try to tease me. If you. do not want a scene on the streets you will start, too. So I ran. I had oue comfort, at least. Mario Ann fell down and broke her parasol. Hhe called me a brute again because I laughed. She drove me. all the way to the depot in a brisk trot, and we got on the cars ; but neither of us could get a seat, and I could not find a place where I could set the things down, so I stood there and held them, ■ ‘Maria,’ l said, in winning accents, ‘how is this for a cool morning ride ?' Said she, ‘You are a brute, Jonklns.’. Said X, ‘My love, you have made that observation before.’ I kept iny courage up, yet X knew there would be an. hour of wrath when we got home. While we were getting out of the.cars the bottle in my pocket got broke, and consequently I had one boot half full of vinegar all day. That kept me pretty quiet, and Maria Ann ran off with a big whiskered music teacher, and lost her fan, and got her feet wot, and tore her dress and enjoyed herself muoh after the fashion of plo-nio goers. I thought it would never come dinner timg, and Maria culled me a pig because X wanted to open our basket be fore the rest of the baskets were, opened. At last dinner time came—‘the nice dinner in the woods,’ you know. Over three thousand little red ants had got in to'our dinner, and they were worse to pick out than fish bones. The ice cream had melted and lucre was no vinegar lor the cold meat except what was in my boot, and of course this was of no immediate use. The music teacher spilled a cup of hot coffee on Maria’s head, and pulled all. the frizzles out try ing to wipe off the coffee with his hand kerchief. Then I sat on a piece of rasp berry pie, and spoiled _ my white pants, and concluded I didn’t want anything more. I had to stand up against a tree 'the rest of the afternoon. The day afford ed considerable variety, compared to everyday life, but there were so many drawbacks that we did not enjoy it so much as we might have done. HOW IT CAME THE DUTCHMAN DID HOT HAVE A CLOCK. There la residing In one of the borough cities of the Commonwealth of Ken r tuoky, a German barber, who is quite a character in his way. ’ The fellow does not appear to recognize any distinction whatever among the people with whom becomes in contact. If the Governor of the State were to step in his shop to get shaved, the probability is that ho would open a familiar conversation with him,, and call him by his Christian name be fore the job was ' ended. Not long ago, Col. James T. B„ a prominent citizen of the place, desiring to curtail the hairy portion of hia visage, called upon the Teuton aforesaid to engage his profes sional services. It seems that the Col. was known to the lathing knight, and of course was the recipient of much con fidential remark during the operation, which produced the usual feeling of an noyance. -As he was about leaving the shop the razor-strapper called to him: '•ttlello, Yim, told me vot tlmeit is voro you gose away.” This was too much for the Colonel’s dignity, and turning sharp ly around, remarked: “Dam you, why don’t you keep a clock, and not bother every gentleman that comes in your shop?’’. “Hold on dere,” replied the Teuton, "comeyou back, Y T lm, yustone, minute, and I told you how it was dat I don’t got any glook." The request rath er excited the Colonel’s curiosity, and he, of course, waited for the explanation. “Val, you see, de udder night after I shut up de shop, I feels a little dirsty, like what a man will feel sometimes, you know, and I says to my olt vooman, I beleef I goes up to the corner audgett a glass of peer.

They lived in Wales, and the farmer was well to do, and gil the household were economical, not thinking of meat every day, or anything like as often. The two daughters were named Reli ance and Prudence ; tbesons, Amos and lames. Reliance was soon to ho mar ried to David Thomas at the next farm. ‘We’li have a hasty pudding for din ner to-day, mother,’ said Farmer Jones to Ills wife one morning at breakfast. ‘.Very well, EVan;’ replied Mrs. Jones; tor ilia, will was law. Bo when it was time she began to make the pudding. Her husband and sons were out ;at their work In the spring sunshine ; her daughters wore making their beds up stairs. ‘I musri’t forgef the salt this time,!, cried Mrs. Jones to herself, ‘there was a flue fuss from all of ’em about it the last time'. For Mrs. Jorfes, good housewife though she was, was apt to forget to put salt in her hasty pudding,. or to put enough of it. She put plenty this time ; for they were nil fond of salt. Then she went up to tho linen room, and began laying tho winter clothing away in cam phor. It was only a few momenta before Re liance came into the kitchen, when, see ing the pudding cooking, nnd knowing that her mother was apt to forget to salt it, she put in a handful of salt and stirred it well, so that her father would not have occasion to And fault. Soon after, Prudence passed through the kitchen on her way to the brew house. ‘Ma Is sure to forget the salt, ‘ said she, and added a good handful. . Before long, Amos entered to getajng of beer. And soon after James.came in. Each of them put in a handful more sail, as they had no more faith in their moth er’s remembering it than Reliance or- Prudence had. Just before dinner, Farmer Jones re turned from the fields, and saw the pud ding cooking. ‘That pudding smells uncommon good I’ . said he. ‘But,’ ' added the farmer, approaching to the kettle, ‘l’ll bet a sixpence the wife’s forgot to salt it, .as she always does, I used to depend upon Reliance, till she got her head'phpek full of that young man o’hbrn, no Idea of her thiukin’ on’t now.

He was a man of edu cation and a fine conversationalist, and a very elegant gentleman. He was fond of a little game of draw, just to kill time, you know ; but the result was that he always got the best of It, and, mingling with moneyed men, his winnings were large. I got into a series of games with him, and, well as I understand the cards myself, I Invariably got the worst of it. I know that there was something wrong, and I resolved to discover it If possible. I carefully examined the backs of the cards, and, understanding bow this sort of work is done, I was very soon satisfied myself that the backs were all right.

In a certain locality, would designate the cards. So nice was his sense of touch, that when dealing, he would naturally pass the face of each card over the end of hlg left mid dle lingers, and no matter how readily he dealt them, ho would know tho positions of ail the face cards In the pack. As a matter of course, this gave him .a heavy percentage, and tho result was, that he Invariably won.” ' o A Do NO JOURNEY AFTER ’WATER.— Some trees send roots out A greiff distance for moisture.

Tho tree had sent them down outside tho brick wall, a distance of twenty-throe feet, until they reached the water, when they had forced themselves between the bricks, and literally filled up the well a distance of three feet.

Diffusers of Happiness.—Somomeu move tbrough life as a band of music down the street, flinging out pleasure on every side through the air to every one, far and near, who can listen. Some meu till the air with theirpresenoe and sweet ness, as orchards, in October days, fill the air with the perfume of ripe fruit.— Some men cling to their own houses, like this honey-suokle over the door, yet like It, fill all the region with the subtle fra grance of their goodness. How great a blessing Is It to hold the royal gifts of the soul that they shall bo music po some and fragrance to others, and life to all!
