Soino folks don't liko tho odor of Limbergor choose; but there are peo ple that can't approcial tho flavor of a well developed polo-cat Uuo even ing, not very long since, a gentleman had made his preparations to attend prayer meeting with bis wife. Prior to starting, be came dawn to his place of businoss, and wbilo there an oc quainlanccdiscovered that ho was about toengago in tho Vt'odiicsdny evening devotion. Accordingly ho put up a villianous job. Procuring a huge slice of the most fragrant Limborgor choose to be bad, be watched his opportunity, and, just as the gentleman stepped oul of tho door to go homo for his wife, slipped it into his pocket The parties repaired to tbe cbnrcb, and wero soon seated sido by sido in a comfbrlablo pow near tho stovo. . noon the choose began to grow loud. ' Tbe sisters turti- od their heads about and looked as if kraut barrel bad exploded. Tho deacons elovated ' their nose and thoaght of the third plague of Egypt Tbe preacher smelltd a groat smell, and tbs wife of the unconscious odor casket nudged her spouse and Inquired If ha didn't smell something. "Mariar, it awlul," he responded ; "It must be in tho coal." Tha more .the assembly speculated the louder tbe odor became, and finally all hands United in hurry ing tbo proceedings to a closo. Ar rived at home and while preparing to retire, the gentleman discovered the cause of the unpleasantness, and im mediately removed it on a couplo ot ehipa. PRIVATE LAND OWNERS IX EXGLAHL AND WALES. The return issuotl by tho Local Gov ernment Hoard of Ownors ot Land in Eaglund and Wales, exclusive of the metropolis, by motion of tho Karl of Pei liy, liirnisljcB the following details : The properties held by the colleges of the r Diversities oft xtird and Cam bridge amount to 235,553 acres with n grosa oslmmkd rental of C4 11.504, tb proportion being Oxtonl 120,879 acres, rental 219,111; Cambridge 10K.7G4 acres, rental 192,453. The colleges belonging to Oxford have proporty in 51 counties in Englnnd and Wales that is, in all save Cornwall, Itutland, and Westmoreland. Tho Cambridge colleges bold property in 37 out of tno 54 counties, Cornwall being tho only county which does not contribute to elt nor of the Universities. Tho Reelest astical Commissioners hold property in in counties, amountingto 14!i,8s2acros, with a rental of 311,208. Property belonging to tho Duchy of i vuuiniui is iuumu ill uvo ununucn, anu amounts in tbe aggregate to 09.503 acres, with a gross estimated rental of I AJ1.29Z. 1 he Duchy ot Lancaster has property in 11 counties, tho aggregate of which is 1 1,428 acres, with ostiinatod rental of 20,942. On cxaming tbe several counties, tho aggregate holding of the 100 largest private ownors is 3,852,000 acres. Out of theo 1(10 own ers, there are 47 holding 20,000 acres and upwards, but less than 30,000 ; 27 holding 30,000 acres and upwards, but toss man tu.uuu ; oigbt holding 411,000 acres and upwards, but less than 50.- 000 ; eight holding 50,000 acres and up- waras, nut less than OU.OOO; three hold ing 60,000 acres and upwards, but less than 70,000 ; two holding 70,000 acres and upwards, but less than 80,000 ; two holding 80,000 acres and upwnrds, but loss than 100,000 ; three holding 100.- 000 acres and upwards. Nino of those io'J.ouo owners hold proporty in one county, 17 in two counties, 20 in three counties, 21 in four connties, 13 in five counties, fivo in six counties, four in sovon counties, six in eight counties, ono in nino counties, one in ten coun ties, and three in eleven counties. 1 be twelve largest owners, as regards area, in bngland and ales, are the lluko of Northumborlond, Duke of Devonshire, Duko of Clovelund, Sir W. W. Wynn, Duko of Bedford, Earl of Carlisle, Duko of itutland, Earl of Ivonsihtlo, lrd Loconncld, Earl of Powis, Karl of Krownlow, and Earl of I erby. The number of owners of land ol one aero and upwards baB already boen stated at 209,547. Thii number, how ever, is in excess of the actual not num ber, owing to the snmo owners fre quently nppoaring in more thaii ono county, t rom an examination made of a certain proportion of names tho re sult gives an approximate estimate of auout o,uiiii owners who may bo de ducted as holding property in more wan one county. Another point to be oonsidorcd in oatabliehing tbe Bet numbor ia that the name ot tho samo person will occasion ally bo entorcd more than once in the same county, owing to tbo difficulty ot luouuuuauon. ii is roughly estimated that another 1,000 may be lurtbor de ducted on this ground also, which will mako 202,547. Again, if wo deduct tho names of owners of public proper ty, which amount to 14,417, wo leave 248,130, as tho probable not numbor of privateownersol oneacreandupwards. It should be borne in mind, however, that this number is exclusive of the owners in the metropolis, who are not entered in the return, so that the aggre gate uumber of owners in England and Wales of one acre and upwards may be fairly estimated to exceed a quarter oi a minion a unicrcni result Irom that inferred from tbo census returns of 1801, from which it had been as sumed that the number of land owners did not exceed 30,760, that boing tho number entered under tho head of "Land Proprietor," and not included under any occupation or profession. Tho return gives the extent in acres of common or wastelands in each county sbowlnganaggrcgntoon,52l1C48 acres ot which the North Hiding of York shire represents the largest viz: 247, 409 acres, and Northamptonshire tho smallest viz : 255 acres; and thorearo no counties without land of this char acter. THE CULTIVATION OF SfM I' A Til Y. Sympathy is an especial characteris tic of women, and its effect upon the human heart may bo compared to tho action of light upon tbe optic nerve; it transfers tho picture from without, and seats it in the soul. Hy exciting nil the feelings proper to tho suffering object it gives us tho most perfect con ception of bis misery ; causes us almost to lorget our own situation, and laucy ourselves tho sutTcrers. Though it is pro bablo this principlo it is no other than a modification ot self-love, yot, as iu effects are instantaneous, and habit re duces it to a kind of sccondury instinct, experienco justifies us in tho distinc tion between this sourco of benevo lence and that which is an act ot rea son, grounded on any principle. Sym pathy is not improperly termed a moral taste, and, like taste in tho fino arts, will admit of improvement by reason and cultivation. Tho sense of danger, frequently experienced, strengthens our antipathy to vice; and tho sense of utility increases, by a common effort of tho mind, tbe lovo of that moral beauty, which we loam to bo proflta bio to us. in vory refined persons, sympathy proves a fruillul sourco of virtue; but ln common minds, its operations are feeble and uncertain ; lor, as the sympathetic toolings may bo increased by proper cultivation, so they mny bo almost annihilated by false reasoning, by being conversant with scenes of craolty, or even by peg- lcct Ileasnn, then, furnishes us with a rulo of conduct founded on the con siderations of our real and pcrmanont interest, and sympathy, hy a kind of instant inspiration, prompts us to those benevolent actions where self is not immediately concerned. In tho train 1 .. i . . . 1. .. , ' , luviviuiD. uw jnbMITJ ITUIIintl, care should be taken to educate tho sympathies, in ordr thsltho desirable means may bo attained which distin guishes between tha sympathy of rea son and that mora blind impulse dic tated by feeling, which wastes its pity on unworthy or undeserving object.
