MATTHEW NEIL'S MISTAKE
BY FANNY SMITH
Annie Neil's simple lullaby of "hush my
babe," was often lowered into a mere hum
ming of the tune, as she rocked the cradle
with her foot, and took up the highly
glazed envelope, to scan the direction and
re-read the note of invitation contained
therein.
Little Frank was at last fast asleep, and
with a whispered injunction to Nancy to
"jog the cradle, if baby moved," off she
tripped to look over stores of wreaths, satin
slippers ' and her wedding dress, to see
what she would have suitable to wear at
the grand party.
.know Matthew will go this time,"
argued the young wife to herself, " the
Wards are great friends of his. Let me
see—he thinks I look best in blue ; I guess
I'll get a light blue brocade, and have it
made so 1 can wear my Honiton. How
kind of Matthew to give me those expen
sive laces fur Christmas present. He
likes to see me well 'dressed, and 1 know
he won't object to the brocade, for he's
doing such a good business now, and I
haven't had an evening dress since I was
married." And with a light heart, Annie
,Neil turned over the flowers, trying- on a
wreath or spray now and then tb see which
woUld be the most becoming.
The little wife possessed a deal of tact.
She had a practical knowledge of the
English adage, which says that "a hungry
man is an angry man," so she waited
patiently till the soup and fowl were dis
cussed, the desert placed upon the table,
and her husband's appetite somewhat ap
peased 'before she commenced.
“Matthew,” said she, "the Wards are
to give a large party on Thursday night,
and have sent us an invitation."
There was not a word, or look of encour
agement on the husband. She was going
to add, And I want you to give me a new
dress for the occasion," and end it ,all
with a kiss, but the stolid face prevented
that, so she - only said, "I expect it will be
a very handsome affair, in honor of their
new house."
"I know two people who won't be there,'
was the reply, as the knife went down with
a snap through his mince pie to the plate.
Annie said not a word, but the tears al
most come, as she sat twirling the water
in her goblet. So the dinner ended in si
lence. Mathew took up his hat to return
to his counting room,
and Annie went up
to the nursery to play with little , Frank
whilst Nancy got her dinner.
But somehow the child missed something
in his mother. She did not entertain him
with her usual light hearted gaiety ; her
laugh was not so ringing when his block
houses fell down; she did not 'drive horsey,
so actively as common; nor play 'peep' with
such laughing eyes as he had been accus
tomed to.
So Frank fretted, and would not be
amused, and Annie Neil sighed, 'oh dear,'
and with a quivering lip said to herself, 'I
am glad I . was spared the mortification of
having the dress refused, at any rate."
And then in spite of herself, hard, tho'
just thoughts of her husband, would in
intrude themselves. She even then did
not know that her heart pronounced Mat
thew selfish, but she thought over the two
years of their married life, and remember
ed that he had taken her a young gay girl
from a large circle of warm friends; had re
fused to attend niost of the bridal parties
which had been offered to her, and had
peremptorily . declined every invitation
since. Without intending it probably, he
had withdrawn her from most of her young
companions, whose society, he declared
was not worth having.
Poor Annie ! She -had a light heart,
and was young enough', and tasted gaiety
too seldom, now not to "feel terribly disap
pointed at not attendinng Mrs. Ward's
party.
The young wife had made up her mind
to bear this little privation, as patiently as
she had borne all the others, but in . spite
of herself, her kiss was not so warm as usu
al, nor her voice so gay in its welcome,
when her husband returned at night.
"Well,•Annie ! what kind of dress- are
you going to wear at Mrs. Ward's ?" ask
ed Mrs. Qarr; Matthew's sister, as her hus
band and herseif were spending the eve
ning there.
"We are not - going, Lizzy," was Annie's
somewhat constrainedanswer.
Lizzy turned a quick, sharp look at her
brother. "You mean IVlatthew won't go,
I suppose," said she.
"Indeefl I shan't," replied the brother,
while a smile of contemptuous superiority
curled his lip, "how a sane man spend an
evening, at a fashionable party, is beyond
my comprehension."
"That is not the only thing beyond your
comprehension, I suspect," replied the
high spirited sister, as she gazed at Annie's
youthful face.
"One never meets a person worth speak
ing to," continued Matthew, not noticing
his sister's interruption, "nothing but a
parcel of men and women dancing; and
making fools of themselves." •
"You must have a stupid set of acquain
tance, and but little discrimination
. and
ability to draw people out," was Mrs. Carr's
retort. "There is no 'reason why you can
not talk as sensible at a party as 'anywhere
else. You meet the same set of' men that
you are so fond of smoking cigars with in
your office, or so fond of talking with at
your stag, parties• ' and to one who likes to
read-characters by countenances, a good
corner at a large party affords one not on
ly amusement , but some insight into hu
marr nature.'
"A man gets enough of that through the
day, and wants to rest quietly when he
comes home at night," replied Mr. Neil
changing his ground.
Annie liad heard a cry in the nursery
during the discussion, and gone up to look
,after little Frank, so w4hout, the fear of
creating trouble between her brother and
his wife, Mrs. Carr went on:
"And don't you remember, Matthew,
that your quiet, patient wife *gets nothing
at all of that;' that a woman's mind
stagnates by her constant confinement to
mere domestic duties; with no recreations
she looses'all elasticity of mind, and at
last becomes .a mere head nurse and house
keeper to her children and husband. It
would be equally wrong in Annie to want
to go out every night, but surely you might
make an occasional sacrifice. 1 tell you
Matthew Niel, what it is, were 1 in your
wife's place, l'd go without you." -
. Mr. Niel opened his eyes, and laughed
at the idea of his quiet, gentle wife think
ing for herself, and going without him; so
he shrugged his shoulders 'at his sister,and
turned to Mr. Carr to ask about the last
advices from Europe.
The night of the party came, and found
Annie beside little Frank's cradle, trying
in vain to read, whilst her hu4band was
down stairs smoking a cigar with a friend.
Matthew Neil was not an unkind hus
band in the usual acceptation of the phrase
only a selfish one, but such men if they care
at all fora wife's love, are making one of
the greatest mistakes of a life time when
they say, "It is only a trifle, and there are
a great many more important things than
going to parties." . .
Invitation after invitation was refused in
the same peremptory manner, without once
consulting his wife's inclinations.
With the usual generosity (perversity if
you will, dear reader,) of woman's nature;
had he but once have said to Annie, "We
will go if you would like to," she would
have instantly refused, and had more plea
sure in the refusal than the acceptance.
The spring came and found the wife worn
out, body and mind, with constant atten
tion on her sick child. The frightful ill
ness and trying convalescence was past,
and now Annie longed for some relief from
the wearisome routine of every day
life. She longed for something that would
arouse her from the train of sad thoughts
which had assailed her in little Frank's
room, but there never came a kind offer to
drive her out for change of air, nor an in
vitation to go to a concert.or a lecture, or
the opera, and she was too proud to ask for
what she feared would be refused.
But many and many a night during the
child's recovery, had Matthew looked into
the room and said, “Annie, Frank is so
cross that I canndt stand it. As I can't
do you any good, I think I will step into
the theatre," or else, "as long as you don't
mind being alone, I'll go to hear Sontag
to-night, I think;" and the gentle reply
would be, "Very well, Matthew," and then
a burst of tears when he bad gone.
Once during the child's illness, Annie
had implored the husband to stay at home
froth a gentleman's party to which he was
going, "I get so frightened when those
spasms come on," she urged.
He replied that "the doctor did not think
them,so alarming; that Nancy could do
more gdod than he could, even if he was
there; that Annie was becoming as much
of a baby as Frank; and thht after the wear
isome routine of business, he really needed
some recreation." But he staid, neverthe
less, sullenly enough to make his wife re
pent the request, and for weeks afterward
spoke of his having to deny himself _ all
pleasure on account of her nervous whims.
A change was slowly but surely coming
over Annie Neil's love. It was no longer
with an impatient waiting on the staircase,
till she heard the latch key in the door and
then a quick flying to her own room, for
fear he should know how foolish she had
been, that she received him now; it was no
longer a half-hour's study with her, wheth
er her glossy hair should be curled or braid
ed; it ,'as no longer in selecting a dress
that she asked herself, "which would Mat
thew like best;" it was no longer that a
week's absence on a gunning expeditidn
was looked forward to, as if it would be an
eternal separation; but her duties were all
faithfully performed, and she was as gentle
and patient as ever.
Annie Neil was no hypocrite. She could
not feign the intense love she had once felt,
and even if she had tried, her husband was
"THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMANDSTHR. GRIMM REILARD."--Buchwam
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1854.
too selfish, not soon to have detected the
counteifeit.
"It is enough to make one dislike chil
dren,"' grumbled -Matthew Neil, one night
to his sister, "when one's wife's whole soul
is wrapped up so in them, that the husband
is a mere secondary consideration. I really
believe Annie has not a thought to spare
from. Frank. She would a great deal rather
sit in the nursery with him than in the
parlor with me. It isn't that he needs her
care either, for Nancy is a capital nurse,
and I have offered to hire another if she
has not enough servants."
"Annie has been accustomed to the con
finement of the nursery so long, that I sus
pect that she only looks upon herself as a
head nurse," retorted Mrs. Carr, "but she
must come to our party whether you do or
not, that's settled,"
nate was not exactly the same satisfied
smile on Matthew Neil's face now, that
there Was on the night on which Ward's
garty was discussed, as' he replied, "very
well," for he felt that his wife was not the
same unquestioning creature that she was
then.
And Annie did go to the party; and not
only, to that but to others, and still others;
to the, opera, to the theatre, to concerts
with her sister-in-law and Mr. Carr; and
night after night, sometimes after spending
a long, lonely evening, her husband heard
her bid adieu, to her laughing companions
on the door-steps, he thought how gay she
was, to what she used to be, to all but him,
and he sighed that now their roads were
so separated.
There was a great unsatisfied want now,
in Matthew Neil's heart. Prom sheer des
peration, he followed, rather than went
with his wife into society; he almost sick
ened at her innocent gaiety; and at times,
loathed his child on whom she bestowed
such prodigal caresses. There was no lack
of wifely duty. Annie - was ever gentle and
patient, a good housewife, and a faithful
nurse in sickness, but the warmth with
which! her love had touched all things, had
gone.. Her husband knew she loved no one,
else, but alas, he felt that she could never
love him again, as she once had done,. and
to thiS day, Matthew Neil is mourning over
his MISTAKE.
CHOOSING HUSBANDS
"When a girl marries, why- do peopt
talk of her choice? in . ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred has she any choice? Does
not the man, probably the last she would
have chosen, select her!"
A very clever correspondent has sent
the editor ()fan exchange, a letter contain
ing the query, and she makes out her case
very ably, sbe says:
"I have been married many years: the
match was considered to be a very good
one, suitable in every respect—age posi
tion and fortune. Every one said I had
made ti good choice. Why no, dear Mr.
Editor, 1 loved my husband when I mar
ried 'him, because he had by unwearied
assiduity, succeeded in gaining my affec
tions; but had choice been my privilege, 1
certainly should not have chosen him.
"As 1 look at him in his easy chair, sleep
ing before the fire, a huge dog at his feet, a
pipe peeping out of one of the many pock
e is of his shooting coat, I can but think
how 'different he is from what I would
have chosen. My first penchant was for
a fashionable clergyman, a.perfeet Adonis;
he was a flatterer, and cared but little for
me, though I have not yet forgotten the
pang of his desertion. My next was a bar
rister; a young „pan of immense talent,
smooth, insinuating manners; but he, too,
after 'talking, walking, dancing and flirting,
left me in the lurch! Either of them would
have been my choice had I so chosen; but
my present husband chose me, and there
fore 1 married him; and this I cannot help
thinking, must be the way with half the
married folks of m i T acquaintance."
There is both sound sense and truth in
this; but is it not better that men should
choose than that they should be chosen ?
And is not our correspondent probably
much happier with her present husband,
shooting jacket, pipe and dog inclusive,
than she, would be with either the fashion
able clergyman or the clever barrister?
Men are proverbially inconstant; and, af
ter marl- . +=re, when the trouble and incon
venie ce children begin to be felt, and
when most trying time of all,) the
wife egins to neglect her husband for her
chil n, unless there was originally a
very s 9ang attachment on the husband's
side, th eis little chance of happiness.
Awe's affection, on the contrary, al
ways increases after marriage; and if indif
ferent'before, no well disposed woman can
help loving the father of her Children.
Children on her side are a bond of union,
and 'though she may appear to neglect
some of those little attentions which men
seem naturally to expect, it is only because
the child is the more helpless being of the
two, and the true woman always takes the
side of the feeble. It is a strange but
melancholy fact that when young girls fan
cy themselves in love, they are seldom if
ever happy, if they marry the object of
their choice. The fact is, in most cases,
they find the husband they have chosen
quite a different person as an individual
from the imaginary object he appeared as
a lover.
The imagination of most girls is strong
er than the judgment; and as soon as the
first idea of love is awakened in the female
heart, the imagination is set to work to fan
cy a lover, and possible perfections are as
sembled together in the young girl's mind
to endow the object of her secret idolatry.
The first man whose appearance and mau-
hers attract a girl on her entrance into
'society, is generally invested by her with
he halo of these thoughts, and she fancies
herself in love with him. No wonder, then,
that if she marries him she is miserable.
The object of her love has vanished, never
to return; and she finds herself chained for
life to a man and she fancies she has been
deceived in him.
On the other hand, the man who, with
very pardonable vanity, fancies himself
loved for his own merits, and who was per
fectly unconscious of the secret delusions
of the girl, becomes, when he finds her
change after marriege, quite indignant at
her caprice. The friends and relatives on
both sides share in the same feeling—
"what would she have? they cry—""she mar-
ried for love and for the consequences."
The consequences are- indeed, in such
cases, generally sad enough. When the
first delusion is dissipated, and the truth in
all its hard and stern reality, comes' forth
from the veil that has been thrown around
it, both parties feel indignant at the. false
position in which they find themselves.
Mutual recriminations take place, each hc
cusing the other of deceit and ingratitude
while the apparent injustice of those- accu
sations, which is felt by each party, alter
nately, first wounds the feelings, and then,
if repeated, rankles in the wound till it
becomes incurable.
SELFISHNESS--Live for some purpose
in the world. Act your part Well. Fill
up the measure of duty to others. Con
duct yourselves so that you shall be mis
sed with sorrow when you are gone. Mul
titudes of our species are living in such a
selfish manner that- they are not likely to
be remembered after their disappearance.
They leave behind them scarcely any tra
ces of their existence, but are forgotten el
most as though tney had never been. They
are, while they live, like one liebble lying
unobserved among a million on the shore ;
and when they die, they are like that same
pebble thrown into the sea, which just ruf
fles the surface, sinks, and is forgotten,
without being missed from the beach.—
They are neither regretted by the rich,
wanted by the poor, nor celebrated by the
learned. Who has been the better for
their life ? Who has been the worse for
their death Whose tears haVe they dried
up ? whose wantss upplied ?—whose miseries
have they healed ? Who would unbar the
Gate of life, to reamit them to existence
or what face would greet them back again
to our world with a smile ? Wretched, un T
productive mode of existence . ? Selfish;
ness is its own curse ; it is a starving vice
The man who does no good gets none. He
- is like the heath in the desert, neither
yielding fruit nor seeing when good coin
eth a stunted, dwarfish ; miserable shrub.
CURE FOR CORNS.-Mr. Cooper, in his
"Dictionary of Surgery," has the follow
ing infallible cure for corns : Take two•
ounces of gum ammoniac, two ounces of
yellow wax, and six drachms of verdigris;
melt them together, and spread the compo
sition on soft leather ; cut away as much
of the corn as you can, then apply the
plaster, and renew it every fortnight till
the corn is away.
BABIES.-A baby slkiw was recently
held at Bytown, Canada; at which prizes
of fifty dollars were liven for two babies
of sixteen and seventeen mouths respective
ly . Appropriate speeches were made by
the judges, after which one of the lucky
in others announced that "she would have
another baby to show:at the same time and
place next year, if there was any premium
to he given."-

Vtage , s Lightning Rods. Beware of Impostors
and swindlers. In order to prevent a repetition of
the frauds so extensively carried on during the last
two years, by a set of scoundrels who travelled
over the country, and represented , themselves as
my agents, and in many instances exhibited forged
certificates of agency, I now give notice that all
my agents, carry with them printed forms, author
izing them to act as my agents; legally executed
and acknowledged before Alderman Henry Sirup
son, of Philadelphia; they have also, my name and
place of business on their wagon,. I believe them
all to be strictly honest, and fully acquainted with
the business of putting up Lightning Rods, which
they will do at as low a price as they can be ob
tainet, at the Factory. As many schemes have
been resorted to, to defraud myself anti the public
purchasers should be on their guard; thousands
have been grossly deceived by purchasing useless
articles in the shape of Lightning 'Rods, having
tie wter, lead, copper, zinc and iron points, either,
or all of which are good for nothing. My Electro
Magnet Lightning rods, have been examined by
many of the most scientific men in the world, who
have pronounced theta to be the only rods that
they have ever seen, which are calculated to save
lives and property from destruction by lightning—
among these are Professors Henry M 2 Murtrie,
James M'Clintock, Walter R. Johnson,-of the U.
S. Patent Office, E. J. Carr, Dr. T. E. Waller and
many others who recommend them in the highest
terms of approbation.
All orders wholesale and retail, will meet with
prompt attention. Spire rods and scrolls made
