"How Conntrifled." I?aa\v a mnu'.y farmer, a ehainiiion of the soil, With his neat, though homely garments, ami look of honest toil; With wealth of heart, ami wealth of hand, brown beauty in his face, Ho stood within your city, aud I markd his modest graoe; And many panned with stately "top, in broad cloth and in pride, But murmured, as they looked ou him, " Oh, my! lmw countrified." I saw an aged lady, a Dotxirah pant her prime, Who'd measured years of usefulness, nontout to lude her time; For a seat within a stage coach, I heard her ank one day, When one with faco like Knan (no birthright by the way). From underneath a cloud of smoke, said,"Can't she ride outside ? I'm sure there iH no room within for one no countrified." In learning's classic temple, with an OJHSI brow and high.

Of far more sterling worth, my friends, than all his classmate's wealth; And high up wisdom's mount he stood, it Cisild uot be denied. Yet in the distance one could stsi how very " eoantriilod." I saw a Isiunteous, well-spread board, in farm house kept with earo; And merry was the household band, for city friends were there, Wluh* the generous, soul-felt welcome each kindly lip expressed Inspired with easy confidence each cared-for, happy guest; And while I listened earnestly to what each might confide, I heard their numerous prais<-s, hut never " countrified.'' Not many months from this, I saw the mistress of that farm. At threshold ot' her last year's gin-st with saehel on her ann; Straightway a little daughter, well instructed what to say. Appeared to tell lu-r country triend, that "ma has gone away;" As with disappointed countenance, tin woman turned aside. Ttis lady murmured in li.-r room, "She looked so countrified."

Iu a large, square, old-fashioned kou.se— such as our fathers nseil to builil when solidity was more sought after than utility lived Philip Manson ami his sister Esther. Philip had reached the mature age of forty years, j and Esther was close to him. Htill, each had pursued a solitary pathway through life, seeking no com|mnioiihhip lave that of tho other, till there was reason to believe that they would con tinue to follow the same course till in the fullness of time they were gathered into the family tomb—the receptacle of many generations of the Manson family. , There was more reason to think so, I aince they took care to commend an tin married life, not only by example but by precept. " No," said Philip, when assailed on this subject by a match-making-lady; "marrying may lie very good for some people, but I could not boar to have my habit* broken in npon. ami my whole house turned tojmy-turvy by tho intro duction of a wife." 14 But by-and-bye, when yon grow lOlder, yon will feel the need of a wife Morn that at present.' ' " No," said Philip, conclusively, " I have sister who is devoted to me, and While she lives I shall need no other.' As lor Miss Esther, she often Aoclared that she never would |*;e a slave of herself for any i living. If other women were fool enough to give tip their indepeml , and tie themselves to a man, for Aher earthly purposes than to bur themselves with cares and toil from ■ning till night, she was sure she hail ibjoction. For her own part she was sr. Her brother and she had always d together jieaeeablv and happily, she did not think she could make change for the better, f course, it was insinuated hy those ise opinions differed widely from s Esther's, that in adopting this lion she was only making virtue of Wisity, and that it was liest to be eon led with one's lot, provided there no chance of improving it. But her did not hear these remarks, ami was not disturbed hy them. She tinned to live in tho old house with brother. They kept no domestic, so Estlu r rather plumed herself on houskecping qualities, and them i really hut little to do. So, as her thor was usually absent dnring tho ', she was left for the mst pari to companionship of her own thoughts, leas some neighbor chanced to 00l in— thing, by tho way, of rather rnro occurrence, since moat of the neighbor* hivi large families of their own, which necessarily confined them at homo. Early one afternoon, just after Lather Menson had completed her tank of clear ing away tho dinner dialiea, ami stor ing thorn away in tho cupboard after a thorough washing, alio wan startled by a rap at the door. Somewhat surprised by a caller at this unusual hour, she answered the sum mons. She was a little apprehensive that it was*a neighbor who had of Into proved very troublesome from her 1 habit of borrowing articles, and owing, 1 it is to be presumed, to an habitual for gotfulness, neglecting to return them. | "I hope,", she mused, "that if it is : Mrs. Bailey, she will be wanting to j borrow something I have not got." She opened the door; but no Mrs. Bailey presented herself to her expect ' ing gaze a gentleman of forty-live : years, carefully, nay, elegantly dressed, | stood lioforo her. " I beg your pardon for intruding, madam," said he, as he noticed Esther's I look of surprise; " but can you direct ! mo to tho house of the late Mr. Well j fleet ? I have heard it was for sale, | aud from the description I have heard i of it, judge it will suit me." "It is the next house on the left, ! sir," answered Esther, who had had ) time, while the gentleman was speak -1 iug, to ( examine his appearance, which did not fail to impress her favorably. "Thank you for the information. I trust you will pardon the trouble I occasioned you," replied tho gentle ' man, bowing. " Not the least trouble in the world,' ' replied Esther, a little fluttered by a I deference to which she had not been I accustomed. Two days afterward Esther heard that Mr. We 11 fleet's estate had been • purchased by a stranger named Bige low. She at oneo conjectured, and j rightly, that this was the same with her visitor. A few days elapsed, and l ist her Manson received another visit from the | gentleman. " I have a favor to ask of you, Miss | Manson," lie commenced (it seemed ho I had ascertained her name). " I am aware that our slight acquaintance will , hardly justify it, hut 1 trust time will remove this obstruction. You must I know," ho added, smiling," that I am a bachelor, dependont in many resjiect* upon my housekeeper, who, though a i good woman in her way, I am afraid is ' l not reliable in matters of taste. As my ' furniture has arrived, but has not leen ! arranged, 1 would esteem it a real ser i vice if you would give me your opinion jin some littlo matters respecting its I proper disposition. My carriage is at I the door ready to carry you over." " But," said Esther, a little hesi tatingly, " I do not claim to have much I taste. 1 fear I* shall prove no more reliable iii that resjiect than your house keeper." " I have hut to look around me," said ! Mr. Bigclow, jiolitely, "to Im fully 1 satisfied njKin that point." Esther's cheek flushed with pleasure iat this compliment, and she made preimrations to comply with her new visitor's request. It was not without a little consoioUs | ness of the singularity of her |>osition that Esther found herself riding by the side of a gentleman with whom she had scarcely exchanged half a dozen words in the course of her life. The distance, however, was but short, and she 'had little time for reflection. On arriving at her place of destination she found the chief part of her bnsineas accomplished. Tho furniture, which, by tho way, was new and handsome, had been arranged in the rooms after a fashion, hut Esther was able to jsiint ou\ several changes for the lietter, with all of which Mr. Bigclow professed I himself delighted ; he, moreover, asked her advice as to the proper place to hang several fine pictures that he had picked up in the course of his European I travels. This was accorded with some hesitation. Mr. Bigclow would not l>o satisfied without showing his new-found acquaint ance all over the honse, from kitchen to garret. When nil was completed lie overpowered her with protestations of gratitude for her kind service, and j landed her at her own door just flvo minutes lieforo her brother camo in. ' Esther was rather glad of this, as she was a little suspicious that her brother would consider her adventure rather a Quixotic one. To avoid comment she did not even inform Philip that she had ever inet I Mr. Bigclow. He took frequent oppor tunities to call upon her, Upon some slight pretext or another, hut it always chanced to lie at a time when bei brother was absent. " I wonder," said Philip, carelessly, as ho sat by the firo one evening, "whether Mr. Bigclow will not lie looking out for a wife before long?" " I—l don't know," said Esther, and in her einlmrmssment dropping half a dozen stitches from tho stocking which she hold in her hand. " Not that I approve of marriage 1 at least, in ray own case," said Philip, not noticing thin demonstration, "hat it may be different with Mr. Bigolow. He has no sister to superintend his j establishment. 1 don't know, however, whothnr there is anybody likely to suit liirn in this village. Lot roe 800 -there is Miss Preston ; she might do." " No I don't think she would suit him at all," said Esther, with a spirit which eonsiderubly surprised her brother. " Hho knows very littlo about house keeping." " Why, I thought you and Miss Pros ton were friends," said Philip, a littlo puzzled. " Well, so we are," returned Esther in her usual tone ; "but L I hardly think HIH- would suit Mr. Bigelow." " Perhaps not," hi; rejoined, and so the conversation ended. Frpm the conversation which wo have record" d above, the reader will obtain some insight into tho character of Esther's feelings toward Mr. Bige low. Hho would hardly confess it to herself; but, as a matter of fact, her ideas of marriage had suffered a ma terial change within a brief period. Meanwhile the gentleman continued his visits. Oftentimes ho would ask to see the bed of flowers on which Esther rather prided herself, und some times lie would petition for seeds, being very fond of flowers, as he said, and very anxious to introduce them in his own garden. On one of these occasions Mr. Bige low, after a little visible embarrass ment, said, hesitatingly: "I would like to ask your advice, Miss Esther, on rather a delicate question, and one of great importance to myself. There is one thing I wish to secure to make my establishment complete, but 1 hardly know in what manner to uk for it." " What is it you refer to?" asked Esther, unsuspiciously. "A wife," was the significant reply. Instantly a deep i rmison flushed Es ther's checks. She did not trust herself to M]ieuk. " Need I av that you are the one, whom, of all others, 1 would seek to place in that position." He took her unresisting hand and kissed it wit It all the gallantry of a voting lover. " But what will my brother say?" in quired Esther, when she found voice to s|M-ak. " What should he say? You are your on mistress, surely?" "Yes, but he is always ridiculing the idea of marriage, and I couldn't venture to tell him." " No need of it. Let's run away to New- York and get married. You know," he added, gnyly, "we are both young and romantic, and it would be quite in character." Esther at tlrst objected, hut when sho came to consider that in this way she would be relieved of a great jsirtion of the embarrassment which such a step would naturally bring with it, she con sented, and that day week was ujq>oint<-d for the departure. She required this time to make preparations. Meanwhile, if Esther had not been so exclusively occupied with her own affairs, she might have noticed that a change had CO mo over Philip. He was often absent evenings, and when at homo was more silent and abstracted than was his wont. The former she readily attributed to the cause which he assigned, namely, a pressure of business. The latter she did not observe, her mind Is-ing pre iccupied. Wc, who are in the secret, may take tho liberty of following him on one of his business calls. It was at a neat cottage, from whose front door dangled an immense knocker, that Philip Manson knocked. The dooi was opened by tho same Miss Preston, who some months ago be thought " might do " for Mr. Bigelow. " Good evening, Maria," was his sal utation as he entered. After a brief conversation about the weather, tho crops, and other standard topics, which, however trivial they may seem, could hardly la disjiensed with , he liegan to show signs of eiuliarrassnicnt, and final ly ejaculated : " Maria Miss Preston—l mean Ma ria, what are vour opinions alton* marriage ?" " Why," said she, " I hardly know. I don't think 1 have given much consid eration to the subject." " Because," continued Philip, " I And my opinions have suffered a great change on this point. There was a time when I thought it unwise, but now if I could get a good wife, such as yon, for example, I should bo inclined to try it." "Oh, lor! Mr. Manson," said Miss rrnston, in some perturbation, " how yon talk 1" Five minutes afterward. Miss Preston had accepted the prnjwMal of Philip, ami the two were, to all intents and pur poses, engaged. " The only thing I think of," said the gentleman, after a pause, "is that my sister Esther is a decided enemy to mar riage, and I hardly dare to tell her that lam aliont to marry. If we could only go awny and have the ceremony per formed it would lie pleasanter." "Supposo we go to New York," sug gested the bride-elect. " A good idea. We'll go. When can yon I>e ready f* " Nest Monday morning." So nest Monday morning was agreed npan. It so luxppened that Esther was to start on Monday afternoon for the same place, with the same purpose in view—but of thin eoineidonco neither party wan aware. The reader will j>loa*n go forward a week.

On the morning nueeeeding the two marriageH, for by a niugulnr clianco they happened on the name day, Mr. Bigelow and i Knther ntarted out for a walk down ! ntreet. It no happened that I'hilip and bin wife were at the name moment walk ing up ntreet. The natural consequence ; was the two partion met. "Good heavens! my Mister!" cx j claimed I'hilip. "Merciful goodness! my brother!" ' returned Knther. " What brings you here with Mr. j Uigelow?" "Nay, how lIUJI|M-ll* it that you are here with Minn i'ronton !" " Minn I'rentoa in now my wife!" , " And Mr. Bigelow in now my bus ! band !" j " But I thought you wore opposed to matrimony?" "And I nup]ioned you were equally "My friends," inter]>onisl Mr. Bige low, "thin in a day of MUrprinc—but 1 trust of such a nature that We ihull all be made the happier thereby. My re gret, Mr. Maiinon, at robbing you of your housekeejier in quite dissipated bv the knowledge that you havo so soon ! supplied her place." Tho Herniation esciUsl in the village by the return of the two brides with their respective husbands may be better ' imagined than dcmuilnnl. It gives us pleasure to state that neitle-r I'hilip nor his sister ever had occasion to regret the double elofM-melit. Words of Wisdom.

Motives are better than actions. Men drift into crime. Of evil they do more than they contemplate. Of good they , contemplate more than they do. It is a ss-ret well known to all gri-at men, that by conferring obligations ' they are not always sure of procuring friends, but are certain of creating a numlier of enemies. It is not ease, but effort, not faculty, but difficulty, that makes men. There is no station in life in which difficulties have not to lie encountered and over come Itefore any decided measures of success can lie achievisl. If thou desire rest unto thy soul, lie just; he that doeth no injury foam not I to suffer injury; the unjust mind is always in lalsir; it either practices the evils it hath projected, or projects to avoid the evils it hath deserved.

An Apple Tree That Never Blossoms. The Hartford (Conn.) Tim** says: In the town of Harwinglon, this State, and ; on the farm now owned by Mr. George Gridlev, there lived and thrived a tree known as tho " No blow apple tree.' This tree derived its queer name from the fact tluxt it always fruited hut never blossomed. The fruit hail a sweet flavor, though the size was below the average, and when fully matured was sufficiently • open at tho blossom end so that the seeds might be easily shaken out. In the autumn the fruit buds set similar to i tho surrounding trees. In tho spring i the bud swelled, and throw ont its feel | ers; but what wc recognize as blossom 1 was minus, and it took close olmcrvation and a studied acquaintance with its habits to detect anything oven in tho matnred bud tliat would foreshadow fruitage.

It seems to ho the object and deter mination of tho present ago to set on foot gigantic enterprises and un dertakings by which to increase ami perfect tho system of tho world's commerce to such a- extent , that coming generations will rind but littlo to do in that direction. Among | them must he counted the submarine telegraphs, the successful piercing of ; the Alps for railroad purposes, the IV I cille railroads, the great linos of steam | ships for transportation of passengers ami freight, and above all tho eonsxruc i tioii of tin- Hue/, canal, and last, but not least, the tremendous railroad network all over America lis well as over Europe. ' Minn* the unlutppy consequences of the year lH7.'t have gradually died away, in numerable plans and project* for gigantic measures to increase tho facili ties for the commercial intercourse of the world have been jsirtly executed al -1 ready, while others will soon IK; taken i in liuml. Prominent among the latter are the construction of the Panama and Neat i rogua canals, ami the project of Captain Ends to build a railroad across the Isth mus of Tehuaiitc|>ec, in Mexico, on which he projsises to carry ships of any and all sizes from ocean to ocean. In connection with these projects stands the const ruction of a complete railroad net nil over Mexico by American capi talists, ami the finishing of tho South ern, Northern ami Canadian Pacific rail road-. The laying of a submarine cable from San Francisco to Japan ami ('liina will 1M- the logical consequence of the construction of all of these Pacific roods. As far as our own American naviga tion and shipping i- concerned, there is in contemplation a Mock comjiany who-, object it is to build one hundred iron steamship* for coast, river and lake navigation. Tho first seven of thcae steamships an- now in progress of con struction. The mouth of the Mivi sippi is now passabh to the largest vessels, ami great projects ale tning planned for the improvement of the levees of tliat river. A navigation com- I puny has lieen formed at New Orleans for the purjH.se of monojiolizing the total navigation of the Father of liivcra j ami its tributaries. Western Eunq>e is busy in the con struction of steam transjKirts in order to handle and move the tremendous American freight ami tiip constantly increasing emigration to the United States; Hamburg and Bremen arc chiefly engaged in audi enterprise*. In France the construction of canals ami railroads is pushed forward; it is the intention of that country to expend $1,000,000,0(10 in such improvement*. In the East, Itua ' sia is energetically pushing the conqde i tion of its railroad* toward the South and Asia. Austria intends to construct an important railroad from the lianulw, through Servia and Bulgaria, toward Constantinople. Tho jirojoot of Ix>**<qM to jiierce the Isthmus of Corinth *ecm* tto ptv© lieen pushed into th© back j gronn.l through tho Panama canal project. j In Asia, also, great railroad entor jirises arc; planned and jwrtlv in con , stniction. The ('hiucao, who only n I short while gjo destroyed and demol ished a little railroad built by Euro j>ean* at Canton, tiecauae the^ regarded ! the locomotive as being built in the devil's wurksho|>s, have now concluded i to construct s railroad system on their own responsibility, in order to connect all the chief cities of the interior of that vast empire with l'ekin. Undoubtedly the jugtails are driven to these enter prises by their fear of the Russians, who are tearing jiieco after |iieoe from the Celestial empire, and who at the pres ent time are pr©|ruig for a general attack. ' That England, like Russia, entertains its plans ami projects for the construe i tion of railroads through Asia toward ' India is a well known fact. When Eng. land secured the possession of Cyprus i the fact that that country intended to i build a railroad in Asia Minor at a point nearest and most convenient to the ! island, which should run along the | river Euphrates toward the Gulf of 1 Persia. Preliminary surveys have si. ready l>een made; but when this plan will IK> executed the English govern ment seems to regard as a secret. As compared with England, the Russian plans and projects iii Asia arc simply tremendous. It is Russia's in ! tention not alone to connect tho Caspian , sea with the sea of Aral, but also to make the river Amur-Darja navigable as far as Tashkoud. Russia has already a large nnmlxer of steam-vessels on tliat river which run into the very heart of j (Central Asia. But the most gigantic plan of Russia is the eonstrnction of a railroad from the Casjuan sea through Central Asia as far as tlie frontiers of China and Afghanistan. Thero is no dotiht that le/sseps has his hands in all these RnssiAn plans; he lias traveled through tip interior of Asia for this purpose. The construction of a railroad through the desert along tho Persian bocd*r,/through the chief cities of the Turuortan and Geok-Tepe, and Marv ' must lie regarded as the beginning of I the Russian Central railroad. It cannot | * ♦ / # ■:- ■ | 1> long bcfor© that route will be pushed toward Herat, in Afghanistan, and in an i easterly direction toward tbo frontier of China.

('lnrtujo Tribune. i 1,1 The First Railroad. I At New Castle-upon-Tyne a man named Hi aurnont, a heavy coal dealer sometime before 1650, constructed a wooden roadway at bis mines; at least, twenty-five years lat< r, a roadway was described which is supposed to le like that built by Mr. Rexumont. It eon sisUsl simply of wcooden rail* about seven inches wide fastened to sle< |K-rs. five or six feet apart, by wooden |*-g*. On these the heavy curts with clumsy wheels were pushed or drawn along. A horse would draw a haul of about two tons on one of these railroads, under favorablo circumstances. As a rule the collieries were situated at a bigLc level than the depots, so that the grad© was generally favorable to the p. a,led eart. As the rails were found to Ik ml | and to offer a corresjonding resistance to tho.wheels, the plan was adopted, in some cases, of nailing plates of iron to , the surface of the wooded rails. Cat uUs at this time were receiving the most at tention from those interested in improv ing the means of internal communica tion, and but little interest was oxjs-nded on the railroads through a period of many years, the attention of acit-nufir men Wing turned in other directions, j An idea of the little attention that was given to the railroadin those early days of its history is seen from the fad that aliout a century passed after the time of nailing strips* of iron to the 1 mils before the next important improve ment was made, that of sulistituting cast-iron for wooden rails. Mr. Stephen son puts the first manufacture of iron rails as occurring in 1767, at the exten sive iron works of C-olebrook-dale, in Shropshire. Iron wheels were used to ' . some extent ten or fifteen years before 1 Tho first railroad with iron rails is said , to have Ix-en const meted at the Duke of Norfolk's colliery, Sheffield. Aliout the year 1810 malleable iron rails wi re first ! introduces! at the coal works of Lord Carlisle, on Tindale Fell, Cumberland. The ears, or " waggons " as they were called, of those early days of the rail ! road, were as crude and clumsy in their form as the rough play carta of children portrayed in pictures of ancient rural life. Being intended for the carrying lof coal, the cars of that time were adapted in form for that purpose, and were made of roughly-joined wood in ] the shape of hoppers. Previous to abont 1750 only wooden wheels were 1! used. The front wheels were made of 1 • larger diameter than the rear wheels to keep the body of the car horizontal on the down grade, the roatla King in ' tended chiefly to hring loads down from ; the mines to the coal yards anil depots. | These wheels were sometimes made of 1 one piece, hut oficner of several pieces I fastened together by wooden pin#. The surface was hewn out to fit to the rail. Aliout the middle of the cigh ■ teentli century cast-iron wheels I>egan to ap|>ear, and for a time it was cus tomary to have two of the wheels on n car of iron and the other two of wood. I There was a strong prejudice against the nse of iron wheels on account of their injury to the rails the danger of their cracking and the rude brakes not working on them satisfactorily; and it was for the latter reason, probably, . that during the introduction of th i cast-iron wheels, wooden wheels were used with them on the same car. The adoption of iron rails did away with the use of wooden wheels. The first railroad constructed in Eng land for carrying ]w**cngcrs was I lie Stockton and Darlington, which was opened in the fall of 183.1, though for the transportation of general merchan dise there were several wooden railroad# of short length in use. which had grown up from the provcu utility of the nul road for carrying coal. The coach©* | were drawn by horses (on© horse to each ! coach, th coach accommodating half a J doten jiaascngers inside and twenty out 1 side) at a speed of about ten miles an hour.— American JommaL The Spanish are said to hare in on© eolloatloa 44,000 proverb#.
