A. T. Stewart and Wm. B. Astor.
The Boston Journal's New York
correspondent says of A. T. Stewart :
He seldom looks at a subscription paper.
With him begging is at a distance. He
has little sympathy with vagrancy. Men
and women who seek his presence seldom
gain much by an interview if money is
the object. Indeed it is very difficult to
gain access to him any way. He is
intensely devoted to his business, and
works more hours probably than any
merchant in New York. He controls
his own affairs with despotic sway.
His partners have no control over the
business, bat are interested merely in
the profits. He buys and sells as--be
pleases without consulting any one. Bat
on great occasions, the donations of Mr.
Stewart are princely. He proposes now to
devote millions to build houses for the
poor. If - the city refuses to give the site he
will still carry, out his.. plan : ,
The' Siiniti Writer say's'' Mr: Astor
Unlike Mr. Stewart, William.B. Astor is
always accessible. His rooms are on
Prince street, a door or two from Broad ,
way. They are the same that were
occupied by his father. He has a front
and back office, where the business of
his great estate is carried on. The door
is wide open between the two offices. A
person asking for Mr. Astor is directed at
once to the rear room. At a common desk,
crowded with papers,sits a German looking
man, about seventy, heavy moulded, tall
and stout. His eyes, which are small,
with an expression bordering on stupidity,
are fastened an the visitor, and Mr. Astor
waits his utterances. He wastes no
words. His answer are yes or no, with
an air that admits of no debate. All the
day long, from ten to five, Mr. Astor sits
in his office and sees all comers. He
knows the rent of every house, the dura,
tion of every lease, the times and terms of
payment, with every foot of land. At
five o'clock he rises, and with a slow and
sluggish gait he turns into Broadway and
walks to Lafayette place, where be resides,
for dinner.
He has two sons, John Jacob an. 3
William 8., Jr. These young men are
in business with their father. No banker;
in New York attend more closely t 3 their
calling. They are modest, retiring, and
without affectation. John Jacob is tall
large, heavily built, with sandy hair and
complexion - resembling his father. He
went to the field in 1501, and did good
service for the national cause. William
8., Jr., is tall and slim, with black hair
EMI
of genteel build, and is said to resemble
his mother. •
Life has long years; many pleasures it
has to give in return for many which are
taken away; and while our ears can
receive the sounds of revelry, and our
eyes are sensible of pleasant sights, and
Our bodies arc conscious of strength, we
deem we live;but there is an hour unheed
ed,but after we have no real life, whether
it perish in the agony of some conquering
passion, or die wearily of sorrow; au
hour which they may strive to trace; who
say, "Ay, I remember I thought and felt
differently then,—l was a mere boy,—l
shall never feel the same again ;" au
hour when the chord is snapped, and
the chain broken, on which depended
the harmony of existence. Shout, little
children !shout and clap your hands with
joy ! send out the sound of ringing
laughter over the face of• the green
bosomed earth ! From you the angel
bath not yet departed : in your hearts
linger still the ernanati,ins from the
Creator—perfect love and perfect joy.

The Wanderer.
The stars are climbing up the sky,
The twilight's fading fast;
And sombre are the shadows which
Are now around me cast.
Oh I would that sleep would visit me,
And give my spirit rest;
And quench the flame of other years
That's burning in my breast.
Once more I'm by my mothers sido,
Within a darkened room,
Where tears, and prayers, and stifled sighs
Are mingled with the gloom;
Once more her hands mine own entwine,
Once more my tears do roll;
Once more her dying eyes meet mine,
And seem toVere„Rtny soul!
Oh, God! oh, God! I promised then,
Upon my bonded knee,
To shun the haunts of vice and crime,
And from the tempter flee!
But my weak soul the iron chain
Could not tear from its hold;
And now my misspent days and nights
Have made me harsh and cold.
The morning sun his golden rays
Throws upon earth and sea;
And some will herald day with joy,
But there's no peace for me;
For while they greet it with deep bliss,
And unalloyed delight,
I turn away my weeping eyes
And wish again for night.

Printer's Mistakes.
During the Mexican war one of the
English newspapers hurriedly announced
an important item of news from Mexico,
I •
that General Pillow and thirty-seven of
his men had been lost in a bottle (battle).
Some other paper informed the public,
not long ago, that a man in a brown
surtout, was yesterday brought before
the court, on a charge stealing a small
ox (box) from a lady's work-bag. The
stolen property was found in his waist
coat pocket. A rat (raft,) says another
paper, descending the river, came in
contact with a steam-boat, and so serious
was the injury to the boat that great ex
ertions were necessary to save it. An
English paper once stated that the
Russian Backinoffkowsky was found
dead with a long word (sword) in his
mouth It was perhaps the same paper
that, in giving a description of a battle
between the Poles acid the •Russians r said
that the conflict was dreadful, and that
the enemy was repulsed with great
laughter (slaughter). Again, a gentle
man was recently brought up to answer
the charge of having eaten (beaten) a
a stage driver for demanding more than
his fare.
Occupation.
Occupation I What a glorious thing it
is for a human heart I Those who
work hard seldom yield themselves up
to fancied or real sorrow. When grief
sits down, folds its hands, and mourn
fully feeds upon its own tears, weaving
the dint shadows that a little exertion
might sweep away into a funeral pall,
the strong spirit is shorn of its might, and
sorrow becomes our master. When troubles
flow upon you, dark and heavy, toil not
with. the waves—wrestle not with the
torrent—rather seek by occupation to
divert the dark waters that threaten 1 0
overwhelm you in a thousand channels
with the duties of life always present.
Before you dream of it, those waters will
fertilize the present, and give birth to
fresh flowers, that they may brighten the
future—flowers that will • become pure
and holy in the sunshine which pene

To Cook a Husband.
Many good husbands are spoiled in
cooking; some women keep them in hot
water constantly, while others freeze
them by conjugal coolness; some smoth
er them in hatred,contention and variance
and some keep them in a pickle all their
lives. These women always serve them
up with tongue sauce. Now it cannot
be supposed that husbands will be tend
er and good if managed in this way; but,
on the contrary, very delicious when
managed as follows : Get a large jar,
called the jar of faithfulness, (all good
wives keep one on hand,) put your hus
band in it, and set him near the fire of
conjugal love; let the fire be pretty hot,
but especially let it be clear; and, above
all the rest, be constant; cover him with
affection, kindness and subjection, gar
nished with modest, becoming familiarity
and spiced with pleasantry, and if you
add kisses and other confectioneries, let
them be accompanied with a sufficient
portion of secrecy, mixed with prudence
and moderation. We would advise all
good wives to try this recipe, and realize
what an admirable dish ahusband makes
when properly cooked.
Horrible.
The French academy of medicine at
Paris has lately brought to light a horrible
state of affairs in regard to the habit of
sending children to 'the country to be
nursed and brought up. Every, year
twenty thousand babies are scut out of
Paris under the care of these peasant
nurses, and of that number only five
thousand, on an average, are returned to
their mothers, the other fifteen thousand
having died of cold, starvation and bad
treatment. ft is calculated that three
hundred thousand of the nurslings have
perished in this way during the last
twenty years. These countrywomen make
no scruple of exchanging the babies en
trusted to them,and undertake to nurse
several at a time. They write letters to
the children'sparents describingin pathet
ic language the rosy cheeks and increasing
charms of their infants, dead weeks before
the epistles were indicted, and receive
clothing and money fur the little ones for
months after they have been in their
graves
