DUTIES OF HUSBANDS AND WIVES.
"Whereupon They are no More Twain but
Hue Flesh."
At (lie PrpnhytPriitn Clmrtli in
Spi-in?; street, New York, a few day
ago, Jtov. W. Aikmim begun liiH ncr
mon willi o oonBidcration of the im
portance of tho marriage relation to
tha full development of men mid wo
men. It pnvo them more experience
in lifo, multiplied their joys und Bor
rows, and increased their dulici and
responsibilities. Thin tends to a more
complcto development of character,
and (jived greater manlineas to men,
und a fuller womanly nature to wo
man. It smoothes away apcritio of
temper and replaces scifiklmcss with
a consideration (or others who becomo
dearer than self. It is a provision of
nature that man should feel the want
of an intimate companionship which
none but a woman can supply. Tho
reverend speaker then punned to the
mutual duties of husband ami wife. In
the flint placo they should cultivate a
unity of feeling and a complete iden
tity of interests. Neither should
have secrrts from tho other. If the
wifu could have a piece of news only
on condilioi she did not communicate
it to Iter husband, sho had better do
without it; ami anything a tnnn mint
not tell his wifo is sure to be some
thing which lie hod better not know.
The socond great duly is to under
stand each oilier. Jinny of the troubles
of married lifo arise from li I vie mis
iindotTtandinirs and minconstructmne
Two holding this intimate relation to
ouch other iuiihI strive continually to
adapt their conduct and their expec
tations to each other's peculiarities,
and this llicv cannot do without n
thorough knowledge of acli olher'i
characteristics, which a devoted love
and constant wish to please will soon
tcai h them as if by inoliiicl.
The third important duty is that of
mutual forbearance. To the roman
tic love of youlh, tho object of the
ulTecltons appears to bo exulted being,
freo from tho faults and blernihhcs
which disfignro others ; but the real
experiences of lifo dispel this illiiNimi
and we discover feelings and weak
nesses and fun Its that we dreamed not
of before. People, must learn to ex
pect this, and to remember thnt their
own character is at the same lime
losing its imngiuary ohnrms; then
will ihey learn to bo forbearing to
ward each other, and find many quali
ties really noble nnd excellent, which
they bavo not appreciated ot first.
The genuino prose of married life is
better for them than the dreamy poet
ry which roniunlio youth imagines to
bu ita substance A spirit of forbear
ance at trifling provocations would
avert nearly all too dreary woes of
estrangement, alienation and final
separation, which arc so common.
Finnlly, married persons should be
more demonstrative, und niiow their
affection, that it might grow with
what it feeds upon.
A Nkw Wat to Tf.i.l Time. An
exchange gives tho following singular
method of telling tho tune of day or
night, which wo wish to copy for the
benefit of those mho wish to try the
experiment. Seat yourself at a table.
Attach a piece of metal, sny a shilling,
to a thread. Havingplaccd yourolbow
on tho table, hold tho thread between
j our thumb and forefinger, and allow
the shilling to hang in tho centre of
KlafS tumbler. The pul-o viil imme
diately causo '.Lo shilling to vibrate
li"--.
a pendulum, and the vibrations
will incrcaso unlil tbo shilling strikes
tho side of tho glass; and supposing
the time of Iho experiment to bo al
Ibc hour of seven, or at half past seven,
the pendulum will striko tho glass
seven limes, and then lose its momen
tum and return to thecenlro. If you
hold tho thread a sufficient length of
time tho effect will bo repeated ; nol
until a sufficient length i f timo has
elapsed to convince yon that the expe
riment is complete. We need nol add
thnt the thread must be lu l l with a
steady hand, othcrwiso Iho vibrating
motion would bo counteracted. Al
whatever hour of tho day or night the
experiment is mado, Iho coincidence
will bo tho same.

Nestled in one of tho numerous

old fuHhioned villuue of truo New
England type, with its single long nnd
shrilled street, quiet almost to lotiuli
neos, a church or two with scattered
cometciioa, now und then a store,
scattered furm-houscs, the inevitable
iiohtoilico, hotel, and bridge; to which
list hut a few publio buildings cun be
added. There were, however, a town
Iioiiho nnd a bank in tho villngo. In

responsible place, particularly as bo
wus exceedingly rupid and correct in
bis calculations. Atler four years of j
uuty mere, uoui luinur and son were
culled to enter a banking house, in a
larger nnd moro thriving town, in the
capacity respectively of cashier nnd
teller. Here both remained about
fivo years, and both could bavo staid
many years more with profit to tbem
solves und satisfaction to all concern
ed, bad it not been that tho young
man was ambitious of going into busi
ness for himself in tho city. The
father was lolh to huvo him go, but
uftvr repealed solicitation, and having
an opportunity to form a partnership
with an old and trusted banker friend,
the two went into the banking busi
ness in Now York, under the name
and firm of Uu'rr, Dee & Co.
All prospered, and after a year or
two of success, tbo two senior part

Turkish merchant was overjoyed to
meet in his shop an United States
Senator from tho distant and happy
confederation of American sisterhood.
Ho exhibited tho best goods his she

drawn to a pair of bracelets set in

merchant nt lust consented to sell
these articles for seventy five pounds

was a little short at the time, and so,
indorsed by United Slate Minister

amount, agreeing to forward the
money to tho merchant immediately
