Myra Aspinwall was left• an orphan
at the tender ago when the compan
ionship of a loseing mother is most
liceded.
As the fatal close of a lio i gering ill
ness was surely aiiO'oaching, the sub
dued and chastened parent, with a
heart full of love for the delicate bud
of her soul, looked around her to find
a place suitable for it to dwell and
blossom in.
Mr. Aspinwall had been dead many
years, leaving but a scanty compe
tence for the support of his family.—
The increased expenses incident to
long sickness, had tiled up much of
the principal, and Mrs. Aspinwall felt
that she must leave her only daugh
ter dependent upon the bounty of
friends.
She had but few relations in the
world, and only one that was very
near. This person was Mrs. Sum
mer, her husband's sister, who, al
tholigh Oite an amiable woman, was
far from possessing those traits of
character which the pious, devoted
mother desired should ever surround
her child. But awn 'd'arertill 'consid
eration she concluded it best to con
fide her flower to this garden, trust
ing that its innate qualities and
sweetness would not be ruined ;riy
neglect; but rather that its softness
would reflect upon and beautify all
that surrounded it. SIM therefbre
sent for her sister-in-law to come and
attend her dying couch, and in a few
short weeks she had ceased. to be of
. earth, and the frail tenement return
ed to the dust from whence it sprang.
The weeping My pen left her home
in the quiet, y:ills i te„cif Stainctoii,T6t.:a
residence with ter stylish aunt in the
great citpital of our Union. It was a
hard ordeal for the
. young heart to
pass through, in leaving her youthful
associates, her vine-elad cottage and
fields of wild flowers;but the most se
vere of all trials, was going faraway
from that spot where the hallowed
remains of her spirit mother rested.
On the grave, in the little church
yard) she vowed to ever cherish with
holy •zeal.t,lie„life long precepts and
dying advice of her who had gone be-
Tore.,;. _
Mrs. Supnmet! ltved in style befit
ting the wife of Juclge Sumner, who
held the high position of member of
the chief council of our nation and it
was in this household that Myra As
pinwall received the adVaritages of
daughter.
This lady felt the importance of a
sound education, and as her young
charge was but fifteen, she kindly em
ployed the best instructers to improve
her already fine intellect, and the ea
ger pupil determined that no lacl of
energy on her part should prevent
her from being thoroughly accom„
plished.
Li two years from this time she
was introduced into society, and al
though no beauty, as the accomplished
heice of, Secretary' Sumner, She Wag
soon surrOmided by admirers. I said
she was no beauty, and in truth her
features were decidedly irregular;
but there was a gloaming of superior

A TRUE WIFE,
dazzling efforts of fashion by which
she was encompassed,. she still re
tained that simplicity of soul which
was, hers when she lay weeping upon
her mother's grave: ,
Among her suitors was a young
lawyer, son or the speaker of the .
Rouse of Representatives. For a
long time he had been striving to gain
her affections, and his cultivated mind
and upright principles did not fail to
impross her in his favor. Indeed, her
heart yearned towards hint more and
more from the day : , on. which she
learned that he preferred her above
all others. But she had one great
fear that she was not loved Lr her
self entirely. She was afraid that
the reflections of her uncle's high sta
tion, and perhaps a faint expectation
that she would inherit a portion of
his estate,. had partly influenced the
! young man, in (Musing her for his
wife. ,She - was a noble gill, foraltho'
each day her loverpressed - lier - to name
the time when all his hopes should be
consummated, and she felt her soul ex
rpand with complete reciprocation, she
l,would not listen to him until she was
sure that nothing was anticipated but
the life-long possession of her own
heart. She did not like to speak with
her suitor upon the subject, but Was .
firm in her purpose, and after aliray
er to Heaven that, she should have
strength given to her to bear the is
l sue, whatever it might be, she repair
ed to his dwelling and called fbr
Moore, his father. She was ushered
into the library, and the genial old
' man stepped forth to greet her, say-
ing_—
'Why, Myra, my Child, God bless
you for coining out to see me this
cold morning—come to invite me .to
the wedding? Come, sit here, by the
fire and tell MC all about it.'
Poor Myra could hardly summon
up courage 'to answer hint—her
tongue seemed 10 cleave to the roof
of her mouth; lint raising her eyes
on high as if calling for help, she
turned them full and earnestly . to-
Wards the old gentleman, and said
It depends upon the result of this
visit whether 'there is any wedding
at all.'
'Why ?' asked the alarmed father.
'Because,' said she, 'I fear when
Rudolph finds that I ant to be a per-
tionless bride—that I ama not to bring
him one dollar, his feelings may
change—his ardor all die out.
,My
uncle will pass his whole property to
his son—the orphan will have enough
to be grateful for, in the generous
support and protection she has enjoy
ed thus far from his hands.'
'Sweet child 1 I. love you better
than before, and I know some one else
who will set intrinsic:Value on so hon
est a spirit. Radolph'ia. - tiileoed,alia
will soon rise in his 'profession, and
in the meantime I will 'help - you.—
.There, go, and God be with you,' and
the old man turned to wipe away the
tears of sensibility that bedimmed
his vision.
IlLow joyous was the meeting on
'that evening—two souls were assur
edly chronicled on that scroll Of light
where angels delight to record the
joys of the pure of earth.
The. wedding soon followtd, and
was celebrated with much display.—
The President gave away the bride
and amid the congratulations of the
most distinguished of the land ? the
younm t' couple left for a short tour in
the South.
~ , .
~
When =di ey 'rani' n ed, Mrs. &inner
issued cards for a large reception, and
as it was to be a stylish one, she' was
desirous that Mrs. Moore should ap- !:
pear elegantly attired. She knew''
her plain taste and her convictions
on extravaganee, for she had selected
her marriage wardrobe with great
economy, so she took oho of her own
handsome head dresses, composed of
white ostrich plumes, and , persuaded
Myra to wear it, together with a twig-
nificent brocade robe, on that partic
ular
accasjoh*.
Not long after that Mr. Moore rent-1
ed a sling house, and Myra soon
I showed him what a thrifty house- 1
1 keeper was. A little- incident which i
I will relate presently, will prove to ;
the'reader how Well she managed.—
As their means were small, and they
could not return invitations to- par
ties
, they generally declined them;
I but as they were invited to a select
I gathering at the President's of course -
e''''
felt obliged to go. Myra went situ
ply .q.
dressed, caring nothing for the.
body's adornment, but seeking always,
in all walks in society, to adorn the
mind. The next day her husband
asked her "why she observed such
plainness the last evening ?' and
said that her cwhi te plumed - headdress
would have added- much to. the beauty
of her attire.'
She told him that the article he
spoke of belonged to her aunt.
Re then presented her with a sum
of money, telling her to purchase one
of the same description for herself.'
She took it, and smilingly said that
she would 'do' everything that would
insure tee happiness'of one she loved
so dearly.'
A week after lie - Wanted to know if
the feathers were bought.
Myra replied that they were, and
that they were 'up in the attic.'
'Up in the attic!' exclaimed he,
'why you surely cannot intend to wear
them very often to.put them in such
an out-of-the-Way place.'
I 'lt is the best place for . them just
I now,' said she, 'and as I amgoing up
i stairs, I will be very happy to show
'them to you if yon will accompany
me.'
So up tripped the light hearted wife,
and after her the '.excellent husband,
(how could _he bo otherWise.with such

were Mbught 'to view; foi lb! the

husband beheld a great bale of—not
ostrich—but lire geese feathers ! He
was taken by surprise, and exclaimed:
<Why, Myra, what does all this
men ?'
'Why, it means this,,darnitdolph,..
that 1 thought it much better to have
feathers under the .head than on
it.. I knew that your income was
too small to ,cio'in wand superfluitieS, so
I decided toseOend my money .in a
much more • profitable manner than
that which your kindness and gener
osity dictated.'. -
'Ay precioft wife !' and he folded
her to hisleart, feeling confident that
with such a •dlscreet and:far-seeing
companion for — life,difs - comfort was
eva enure of being attended to.

the careful home management, he was

and airy, andit'seemed to please the
taste of ArS. Moore as well as his
own, for they both concluded 'that it
should be their home—that it should
be the spot where the flowers of affec
tion should ever bloom until they
were transplanted to the paradise
above.
The geese feathers were nicely en
cased and used, being daily shaken
and' turned, and carefully guarded
from the destructive moth, and at
.
length their identity would hardly
have been known, for they had spread
and iVere so light, that they could

Yes, the you Wife began in the
right way. The little ball - of shining
twine gradinilly increased in size as
the tlirifty hand spun and wound, un
til, it became to large to clasp. The
Owner soon had a superfluity of the
golden cord, and gave ablindant gird
les to tie up the flowing and tattered
garments of the indigent. Husband
and wife were blessed in seeing their
children fashioned after their own
minds; but the influence:of - the duti
fill, loving Myra was mit confined to
the home circle alone, but widened,
as the ripples of water after a pebble
had been thrown into it.
Ob, Woman ! You. can make your
husbands what you Think of
it., and feel the responsibility that
rests upon you. Pray and strive to
root out all selfiishness in your heart
and nobly fulfillyour destiny by be.

A RUSSIAN WOLF HUNT
We transtate the folloWing story
from a late number of M. Alexander
Dumas's news papers. It is anextract
from one of his letters - from St -Pe
tersburg
"Wolf Minting and bear hunting
are the favorite pleiTsure of the Ras
silo'. Wolves are hunted in this way
in the winter r when the wolves being
hungry are ferocious. Three or four
huntsmen each armed with a double
barrelled guu,which is any sort of a
carriage drawn , .by three horse,sits
name being derived from its team anc.
nob.its The middle horse trots
always; the left hand and right hand
must always gallop. The middle
horse trots with his head banging
down, and he is called the SnoivAater
The two others :have only one rein, and
they are fastened to the poles in the
middle of the body, and gallop, their
beads free; they are called the:Furi
ous.
The 't:rofk - a is driven by a sure
coachman, if there-is such -a thing in
the world as a sure coachman. A
pig is tied to the rear of the vehicle
by a rope or,a t ehain, (for greater se
curity,) some twelve yards long.—
The pig is„kept in the vehicle until
the horsemein reach the forest where
the hunt is to take place, when he is
taken out anel. the horses started.—
The pig; not being accustomed to this
gait, squoals, and his squeals soon de
generate in to lamentations. His cries
bring out one wolf, who gives the pig
eliaSei, then two wolves; then three,
then ten, then - fifty wolves—all post
ing as hard as they can after the poor
pig, fighting, among themselvw for
the best place - A, snapping trnd striking
at the pig at every opportunity, who
squeals with deSpair. The squeals of
agony arehse all the pigs in the for

The pig was put out of the sleigh,
and the horses whipped up. As soon
as the pig felt that he was dragged
he began to squeal. A wolf or two

Therewere about twentywolves when

`idly they seemed to fly over the
snow, and so lightly not a sound, was
heard; their number, contineCto

rapidly as they were discharged had
no effect on them. The. wolves form
ed a vast crescert, whose horns, began.
to encompass the horses. Their 11='
ber increased so rapidly that they
seemed to spring out of the ground.
There was Something wierd in their
appearance, for where could three
thousand wolves come from in such a
desert of snow. The party continu
ed to fire, but they had now used
above half their ammunition, and
had but two hundred eatridges left.
while they were surrounded .

The two horns of the crescent came
nearer and nearer, and threatened to
envelope the prrty. If one of the
horses
