4, IF MOTHER WERE HERE!"
BY ANNE Z. HOWE,
My life-is so weary,
Bo full of sad pain;
Each day brings its shadows,
• Its mists, and its rain.
There's no ray of sunshine -
My pathway to cheer;
Bat sorrow would vanish
If mother were here.
Each hope for me blooming
But blooms to decay ;
Each joy that I treasure
Boon withers away.
My dreams, full-of beauty,
In gloom disappear ;
But soon all would brighten
If mother were here.
0 lay my poor head
In her dear lap once more,
And feel her soft fingers
Stray lovingly o'er,
And catch her fond whispers
And glad word of sheer;
How soon grief would vanish
If mother were here.
How tender her tones were,
How loving and sweet,
As she told me of life,
And the trials I'd meet.
Yet little I oared then,
But little did fear,
For she was beside me;
My mother was here.
Now, flowers bloom above her,
And winds in the grass
Breathe low, solemn dirges,
As gently they pass;
And I'm left to mourn her
With many a tear.
0 earth were far brighter
If mother were here.
Bat 0, when this lire's
Restless moments are passed,
And I go to abide
With the angels at last,
Among the rich joys
Which in heaven I'll share,'
Is mother, sweet mother,
Who waiteth me there.
OCTOBER
October strews the woodland o'er
With many a brilliant Dolor;
The world is brighter than before—
Why should our hearts be duller?
Sorrow and the scarlet leaf,
Sad thoughts and sunny weather;
Ah me ! this glory and this grief
Agree not well together.
This is the parting season ; this
The time when friends are flying,
And lovers now, with many a kiss,
Their long farewell are sighing.
Why is earth so gaily drest?
This pomp that autumn beareth
A funeral seems, where every guest
A bridal garment weareth.
Each one of us, perchance, may here,
On some blue morn hereafter,
Return to view the gaudy year,
But now with boyish laughter.
We shall then be wrinkled men,
Our brows with silver laden ;
But thou this glen may'st seek again,
But never more a maiden !
Nature, perhaps, foresees that spring
Will touch her teeming bosom,
And that a few months may bring
The bee, 'the bird, the blossom.
Ah ! these forests do not know—
Or would less brightly wither—
The virgin that adorns them so,
Will never more come hither.
MY UNCLE'S HANDBOOK.
After all,'young man, there is nothing
like experience.'
g Experience ! experience ! I would I had
never heard the word ! Trust to my ex
perience' is the eternal cry of age to youth.
But I maintain that youth is a hundred
times better off without it.'
On hearing this astonishing verdict, five
guests assembled in a drawing-room after a
bachelor dinner, looked up with surprise at
the mortal daring enough to utter a heresy
BO contrary to all received opinions.
'Still you must admit,' replied, after a
pause,the first speaker, a grey-haired officer,
s that experience is a precious talisman,
when rightly applied.'
Ah, who knows?' rejoined the other,
who was a young man barely five and
twenty; but if not too tedious, let me
relate you the history of my own.'
All signified their eagerness to listen to
the exposition of so strange a theory, and
he resumed :
• 'Four years ago, gentlemen, at 9 o'clock
in the morning, I left my native town for
the great metropolis. My Uncle Thomas,
an excellent man, who, from my earliest
recollection, had never lost sight of me,
accompanied me on the platform, and the
train was on the very point of starting
when, grasping my hand, he exclaimed
over and over again, Good bye, Alfred—
good bye ; and above all, do not forget my
handbook—remember my handbook !'
To explain this, I must tell you that
the day before leaving my uncle called me
into -his study, and Spoke to me as follows
'Alfred, I am getting up in years; I have
a house, £2,000 a year, a nephew, and
the gout.. I watch over my house with
order, my means with economy, my,
gout with pain, and yourself, my boy, with
plea Sure. It is my wish to leave yon all
I poimess, except the gout; but before
doing this, I wish you to complete your
education by some knowledge of London
life. • Yon shall start to-morrow by the
first train, and remain in London until I
call you home. Combine amusement with
instruction, and see as much as yon can of
the world. Still, my dear boy, as London
is a place where a man ought always to be
on hla-guard, I have resolved on providing
you with arms. Take this book ! It con
tains the fruits of my long experience. In
it yoi r i' will, find a protection against the
snares` that will beset your youth in the
great' city; there have I noted all the
obserVations acquired by a knowledge of
men and things, and I have mimed it my
Handbook. When you have entered on
the slippery path which lies before you,
take q step without first consulting it.
Here it is. You will thank me on your
return'- _
Thus it is, gentlemen, that I left, by
the train- at nine o'clock, and why my
Uncle l'homaa reiterated up to the last
mometo,his pressing recommendations.
YoOday,fancy how my heart beat, the
first time I trod the pavement of Piccadil=
ly, though - I could hardly refrain from
looking for the concealed traps that might
lie upoh its polished surface. However,
I soon took -courage. What had the pos
sessor :of My Uxicle's Handbook' to
fear ? ,
g A week had hardly glided by; when,
thanks to: the letters of introduction with
winch Iwas provided, I Made my debut at

Forewarned is forearmed. When, the
next day,' my • insinuating yoting friend
presented himself at my door, he was told
that I had changed'my , lodgings, leaving
no address. • .
This was No. 1..
My time being my own, i bad ventured
on a few timid attempts at literattire.
Verses naturally were among• them,
,an
unpublished volume and a play,as I thought
completely Unknown:But things,somehow,
do come to light, . I hardly know. how.; and,
one evening, at.a party I-gave in - my own
rooms, I was asked to repeat a mere trifle,
a sonnet,. At first f refused, but was over
persuaded. My play and three sonnets all
passed the ordeal.
It was a perfect triumph !—compli
ments, thanks, applause ! I was retiring to
bed in eostaoy, when the inexorable hand
book rushed to my thoughts. I opened it
at the word Compliments.'
Compliments,' it sneered; 'never to
believe one word of the praises of the
world. True merit never excites anything
but envy ; the more you are praised, the
less should you think of yourself.'
Which means clearly,' I thought, that
I am a perfect nonentity. My poor verses,
to judge by your reception, you are but
sorry things.' I bade farewell to my
dreams of literary fame. My MSS. did not
take five minutes in burning.
This was No. 2.
I now turned my thoughts on acquir
ing wealth. Fortunately a merchant, to
whom I had been introduced as a most
successful speculator, had condescended to
express great approbation of a plan I had
conceived, and had expressed himself most
kindly towards me. Giving me his card, he
added :
Come and see me to-morrow ; we will
talk over all this together, and as you ap
pear intelligent'—these words are his—
, I may be able to get you a share in a
most lucrative affair.'
As I was preparing the next morning
to keep this appointment, a thought cross.
ed my mind—l had forgotten to consul
the handbook. I turned over its leaves im
patiently until I came to the word Bnsi
Business. On this point more than on
any other mistrust is a most necessary
quality. Speculations are double opera
tions—cheats on one side, dupes on the
other. Rule without an exception. Should
any speculation be proposed to you, deem
it worthless, otherwise it would not be
offered you, as men prefer keeping the
good things of this world for themselves.'
lOn reading these lines I sincerely
blessed the uncle who had snatched his
nephew from such, imminent danger. As
for the merchant, I need hardly say that
not only I never went to, house, but
when I met him accidentally I turned my
head away to avoid recognizing him. A
wretch who lived on dupes !
This was No. 3.
I think I said I was then twenty-one.
Who at that age can help falling in love ?
How beautiful Flora was !;how fall of can
dor, innocence and modest grace ! I
thought, too, she was - not quite
,int3ensible
to my devotion. Indeed, some stolen words
and glances had almost converted doubt
into certainly. I was told the had but
slight expectations, but I should have
been ashamed to have made that a consid
eration. 1 determined on making my
sentiments know to her the next day.
Bat, first, the handbook lay open before
Love—Marriage. A. snare to catch
fools ! To drend, like the plague, the soft
glances and modest airs of portionless
girls. This is one of the commonest kinds
of trickery—'
Trickery ! There was the word. Was I
to allow myself to be tricked? How exact
the description ! 'Soft glances, modest
airs,' portionless.' Very nearly Bo—what
an escape I Without my uncle's handbook,
what would have become of ?
When I met her-again, my withering
contempt proved - that her unworthy
stratagems were discovered.
This was No. 4.
Yet that - evening I was 'exasperated
without knowing why.. I wanted to, be re
venged on somebody. It so happened that
every one was enthusiastic in the praises
of a certain Baron,lin Who - m I had suspect
ed a rival. A baron—a 'baron,' I said,
with a sneer; titles are sometimes no
more real than their supposed owner's
diamonds.' A phrase borrowed verbatim
from my uncle's wise handbook.
As ill-luck would have - it, the baron in
question, coming in at that•moment, over
heard me. _A 'challenge ensued ; a-ball in
my shoulder was the result.
This was No. 5.
Six whole weeks I kept my bed.
During that interval there 'was time for
reflection, and after that came•an, irrissisti
ble yearning to confide my meditations to
some sympathizing ear. .;I found this in a
cousin.who came to see me. I told him all.

MAanntortta.—l have lived solitary
long enough ; I want somebody to talk at,

Therefore,> I am open to pioposals from ladies and fresh widows of more than
average respectability, tolerably- tame in
disposition, and hair any other color, than
red. As nearly as I tan judge of myself,
I am not over eighty nor under twenty-five
years of age. In height lam either five
feet eight or eight feet five, I forget which.
Weight, 135, 315, 531, one of these ; re—
collect each figure perfectly well, but as to
their true arrangement, am somewhat puz
zled. Have a whole suit of - hair, dyed by
nature and free from dandruff.. Eyes but
ternut brindle, tinged with pea-green.—
Nose blunt, according to the lonic order
of architecture, with a tough of the Com
posite, and mouth between a catfish and an
alligator's, made especially for oratory and
the reception . of large oysters. Ears pal
mated, long and 'elegantly shaped. My
whiskers are a combination of dog hair,
moss and briar bush, well behaved, fear
fully luxuriant.
I am sound in limb, and on the nigger
question. Wear boots No. 9 when corns
are troublesome, and can write poetry by
the mile with double rhyme on both edges,
to read backward, forward, crosswise di
agonally. Can play the jewsharp and bas
drum, and whistle Yankee Doodle in Span
ish. Am very correct in my morals, and
first-rate at ten-pins ; have a regard for
the Sabbath and drink only when invited.
Am a domestic animal and perfectly docile,
when towels are clean and shirt buttons
all right. If I possess a predominating
virtue, it is that of forgiving every enemy
whom I deem it hazardous to handle. I
say my prayers every night, musquitoes,
permitting ; and as to whether I snore in
my sleep, I want some one to tell me.—
Money is no object as I was never troubled
with any, and never expect to be.
THE INDIAN SIIMHER.—What a habit
the poets have of praising the Indian Sum
mer ! And yet how few recognize that
season when it really comes ! Most men
imagine it visits us about a month earlier
than it actually makes its appearanee, and
so they worship the ghost of that delicious
period which we all look to enjoy before,
the rude voice of Winter bids the Autumn
hence, and closes the almanac upon all
but his own programme of entertainment.
The Indian Summer always seems to us
like the gorgeous sunset of the year—its
hectic flush is so brief and yet so beautiful.
The consumptive year seems, at that time,
to put forth all its vital energies anew, to
array itself in its more coquetish costume,
and with its warm passionate breath, seek
fondly to convince us of its hope, of a long
and proud existence. .
But we know too well how illusory are
such gay dreams of a brilliant future. The
paroxysm once over, the inspiration once
gone, the dying year yields up its cherish
ed anticipations. It sadly gathers together
its garment of withered leaves, coughs
through the long December night its wast
ed life away, and is buried in the white
snow-shroud that its mother Nature wraps
with tears about the icy form of the de
parted.
ANEICIDOTE OF THE LAWYER AND THE
DIM/O.—There is not a more common of
fense against the laws of common courtesy
(we might say, oftentimes, of common de
cency) than is practised by a certain class
of lawyers now-a-days in the examination
of witnesses upon the stand. Now and
then, however, an impertinent lawyer 'gets
it back' in such a way that be is fain to
call the next witness. Of such r was the
following not as yet put down 'in the
books,' but well worthy of being transfer
red from ' the papers.'
At a late term of the Court of Quarter
Sessions a man was brought up by a farmer
accused of stealing some ducks.
4 How do you know that they are your
ducks I' asked the defendant's counsel.
Oh, I should know them anywhere,'
replied the farmer ; and he went on to des
oirbe their different peculiarities:
Why,' said the prisoner's counsel,
these ducks can't be" such a rare breed ;
I have some very much like them in my
own yard.'
'That's not unlikely, sir,' replied the
farmer ; they are not the only ducks I
have had stolen lately!'
Call the next witness.
BATHER A BAD PRAOTIOE.—A trav
eler stopped at a tavern, and''was much
taken with • the landlady, a "neat, .'pretty
and agreaable citialteress. When about to
depart, he declared 'he could not go with
out a kiss. The pretty quakeress
as she replied with great circumspection
( Friend, thee must not do so impudent
a thing.'
IBy heavens, I will 1' exclaimed the
travelet.
Well aa- thee has sworn, I will not
be the cause of thee breaking thine oath,'
naively answered the blushing landlady,
but thee =tat not make a practice of it!'

With these philosophical.-reflections yet
in, his mind, Mr. Mayfield deftly threaded
his way through a co ony ,o ;white-wash
pails and lime kettles that surrounded the
front door; and entered Upon- tha scene of
action. It was quite plain froth . the shout
With which the children greeted his appear
twee that he was a general favorite.
Hallo, Uncle Dick, We're -cleaning
_house !' cried Master Henry Augustus
Mayfield, who was mounted astride of a
- doubled up feather bed ; castigating it
fearfully with his mother's bast silk
parasol.
:Ain't it •splendid, Uncle Dick ex
rolaiinod Mies Julia, who was endeavoring
to", pry out the principle of sounds from a
thirty dollar music - box, by intioducing a
ear7ingittiife into its exterior works, while
Mrs. Mayfield, half distracted by (mils' from
diverri directions was totally unconsoious
of the.Misohief being wrought. '
Dick, I am so puzzled and annoyed,'
she said. Here is John called to the city
by a pressing lawsuit, and the whole house
upside down - !
'Thought that was what you ladies liked,'
cried Dick, perching himself upon the
top of the dining table, and rescuing a
shell basket:from the destructive grasp of
the smallest Mayfield of all.
And my cook has gone and the fire
won't burn, and the wall whiters haven't
come this morning, and the parlor ceiling
is half unfinished, and yon know the
sewing society is to be here to-morrow
night—and Dick, what shall I do 1'
Don't fret!' said Richard, soothingly,
I'll make the fire burn, or I'll know
the reason why, and I'll finish the ceiling
for you.'
You !'
Yes, me. Didn't I whiten my own
room at college, when we boys smoked it
into the color of an old snuff box ? And
then I'll tack the carpet down and see
about putting those dislocated bedsteads
together.'
But, Dick, you must be too tired after

refraotory stove
The very fire was not proof against
such determination. It broke into a
cheekful blaze the moment he attacked its
citadel; and Isabel's face brightened simnl
taneonaly. The skill with which he next
erected a scaffolding and mounted there
on, with a panoply of white-wash pails and
brushes, was perfectly astounding, the,
more so, as his slender figure, and rather
pale complexion, aristocratically small
feet and hands, conveyed. the idea of
one who was adapted only to Broadway
pavements and glittering ball rooms.
g I suppose the workmen didn't leave
their wardrobe, when they went away 'last
evening, Bell ?' he asked, when he had
sealed the yather perilous height.
No,' said his sister-in-law.
Then just hand np that old sheet—
and a piece of that bed-cord yonder.—
Now, don't you admire my tout ensemble
Uncle Dick looks like a ghost,' said
Master• Henry Augustus.
No he don't—he looks like the old
miller down at the pond,' struck in Miss
Julia.
Upon my word, I don't know,which is
the most complimentary,' observed Rich
ard dryly.
Nowohen, clear the track, every soul
of you, and give me a chance.'
And he worked on, now pausing to SW
vey , achievements, but ofteneat 'of all
relapsing into thoughts of the beautiful
young damsel at the pic-nie last night who
had. been so studiously cold and reserved
towards lan.
Slie won't like me,' thought he, and
I can't for - the life of me tell why. Well,
as I said before, women are unaccountable
concerns.'

pretty young pousin, I wish you would
just run over to Mrs. Mayfield's with this

and walked`in without 'ceremony. ,
There: stood Ditik, the apei of a pyre-,
midal'scaffolditig"of boirds; his fine broad
cloth raiment - obsonred bj-L - a - lime 7 splasheii
sheet which was girdled about his waist by
a ponderous - knot of rope, and hie black
curls over shadowed' by a coarse - old straw
hat,,_ working away as, if:for dear life:- His'
beek:wiLs toward the door, and supposing
the step to he that, of his sister-in-law, he
said gaily , Without turning his , head—
" What`! is the carpet ready so soon,
Bell ? just "through 'here, and I'll
come and tack it down in just one niinute.'!.
Not receiving any answer he threw down
the brush and turned around. r
Miss. Brownleigh !'
He had' never looked so handsome in his
life,-and that was the first thought that
rushed through Amy's mind, in the midst
of her embarrassment; for Dick had the
advantage of the young lady, in that re
spect—she was embarrassed and he was
not
He sprang , hastily to the ground, and
threw off his ghostly habiliments.
4 You mist tliinklhave a curious taste
in onetime ' he said archly, but the truth
is, Isabel has been disappointed in her
hired help, and mother is away from home,
so I am helping her to clean up the house!'
'I did not know—l thought you bad no
taste '—stammered Amy, unconsciously
speaking out her thoughts.
Yon supposed that I was nothing more
than an ornamental piece of furniture
Ask Isabel about that,' said Diok, half
piqued, half smiling. 'Bat can I be of
any use to you now ?'
I had a note from nay cousin, for Mrs.
Mayfield,' said Amy, still speaking above
a breath.
She has gone down to the farther
orchard,' said Dick. It is some distance
and not a very straight path. If you will
wait until I remove a little of this lime, I
shall be happy to escort you down there.'
Half an hour ago, Amy would have
haughtily informed him that it was nn_
necessary for her to trouble him—now t3ho
stood and waited.
It was a long walk, under the over
spread shadow of noble apple trees, pend
ing with their weight of crimson and rus
set fruit, and through meadows ankle deep
in purple and bloom, and nodding plumes
of golden red, yet for all that, Amy was
quite surprised when Mrs. Mayfield came
in sight, bearing a basket of rosy obeeked
poaohea from a pet tree beyond the rest.
We believe it is one of woman's special
and incontrovertible privileges to ohange
her mind—therefore, nobody was much
astonished when three months subsequent
ly there was a rumor of the engagement
of Mr. Mayfield and Miss Brownleigh !
Still, however,Dick always declared that
it was an insouble mystery to him that
when serenades and sohottishes, poetry
and perfumes, had all failed to gain an
entrance to the maiden's heart, a white
wash brush should have been the unro-
mantic weapon which at last brought down
the barricades !
Is There Jealousy in Love ?
Bill Williamson's wife took tea at my
house, last Thursday night. My wife,
Emma, and she, are old acquaintances. In
fact, they were girls together. Mrs.
Williamson's baptismal.name is Margaret.
Emma always calls her Maggie. Every
thing went off very pleasant at the tea
table. The girls—l always call them
girls, though they. are both married and
mothers—the girls passed most of the time
in a comic discussion about jealousy. They
both insisted that jealousy was a constitu
ent of true love. I threw doubt upon the
proposition. My argument was that sin
cere connubial affection was unbounded
trust. Suspicion was the canker that
gnawed away love. - '
If I once distrusted my Emma,' said
I, gazing at her every tenderly, there
would be an end of my regard.
'Nonsense,' responded Mrs. Williamson.
I was nettled at her curt reply, bat held
my temper. I have long known the folly
of argument with women. Corner them
with logic, and they escape your grasp by
some irritating and personal attack. Be
side, I like Mrs. Maggie. During Emma's
last sickness, she watched at her bedside
till her cheek grew pale, - and her rounded
figure became as thin as a skeleton.
I tell you, Bobby, Maggie is right,'
said my Emma, in a most provoking man
ner. So I collapsed and held my tongue.
Yet I was wounded at the result of the
contest where positiveness and bold as
sumption were arrayed against sold ratioci
nation.
Happening to recollect that Tom Wil
loughby had suggested a rubber of whist
at his-house, I told the girls I believed I
would go round to Tom's. I found Torn,
and his wife arid mother-in-law, awaiting
my coming. I preferred Rebecca Wil-
loughby foi a partner, and good-naturedly
intimated my preference ; bat it seems the
matter had all been arranged before my
coming.
I have no objection to old Mrs. Crollop,
except she wears specs, and is so cross
over the:game. If I make a misplay she
pitches into me as if I had committed a
grievous sin. 'Her sharp scolding makes
tue as nervous as a, consumptive girl.
I reckon we must have_ been playing
'fr
about an hour, when the, front' ~door bell
emitted a :nervous. tinkle. Mrs.- trollop
was in fine Spirits at the, time. She , had
just exhausted the trumps end was making,
a fine head Way with her aommanding suit
'of hearts. •

"‘ - Now sit droat,-l3eoky,lill this hand

Amazement sprang into indignation as

fellow, sit down and finish your game. I
want to say , a few sweet things to Emma'

• Well, I did sit down, While I felt the
perspiration of, rage oozing from every
pore. Under any other - circumstances I
would have knocked the felloW down
but I was in the house of a -- friend, and I
had no bizeinesa to make a scene there.
The Lord only knows
,how I managed, to
eke out the game. I know 'gra. Crollop
was prolific in . epithets. Stupid was
the mildest. term she applied to me. I was
gradually•straightening -mYself into some
sort of selfvossession, when something
like a sharp labial articulation was heard
in the room.
What's that ?' exclaimed old Mrs.
Crollop. . I suddenly turned round to the
corner occupied by Tebbs. and Emma, and
Cs true as I live, Tebba' arms were enoir
oling my wife's form; while, his lips were
glued to her's in'spasmodic kissing.
Ha ! ha!' I shouted with demoniac
intonation. Ha! ha!'
I sprang toward the guilty pair, seized
Tebbe by his coat tail and swung him
against the =card table. The impetus I
gave Tebbe precipitated the table on the
old lady, and Tebbe and table and the old
lady rolled on the floor in one confused
mass.
With the fury of a fiend I turned upon
my wife, , Perfidous and faithless woman,'
I almost roared, taint not this abode f
virtue with your shameless presence.—
Leave at once and take your vile paramour
with you. And yet I love you—your
jealous Bobby loves you!' I said this in a
heart-broken tone.
Do you, Bobby 3' queried she.—
, Then Maggie, let's go.'
Tebbs bad, meanwhile, arisen from his
reoumbemtpoaition.
Tebbe, in fact, was Maggie Williamson.
Emma and. Tebbe left arm-in-arm. I
followed. Mrs. Crollop, as I passed out of
the door, called me a sickly, fool.
Perhaps there is jealousy in love.
That's a beautiful birrid,' said
