Of late several burglaries have been committed in the neighborhood in which Mr. James Simpson lives, and, of coarse, the folks are not a little alarmed. In Simpson's row alone enough firearms and ammuni tion Lave been collected to conduct a fair-sized war with Mexico, and Simpson, particularly, has bought a whole armory of weapons and load ed them to the muzzle. Simpson's brother-in-law, George Washington IJudd, commonly known as Wash, lives wkh him, and for weeks past Wash, on going to bed, has made such a preparation and display of various kinds of engines of destruc tion that a looker-on might have concluded that his purpDse was to cosduct a kind of battle of Gettys burg on bis own responsibility. The other oigbt, Wash, after re capping all his revolvers, running his thumb along his broadsword, half cocking his gun, and laying his bow-ie-koile on the chair, thought he bsurd a burglar prowling about down stairs Duckling on his artil lery, Wab, in his stocking feet, crept down the back staircase, determined to annihilate the thief. Simpson heard the noise at the same mouicLt, and he, thinking Wash was in bed asleep, lotdcd up bis machinery of death, and crept bIokIv down the irout stairs, also itbout his bjote. olh reached the Crst floor at the same moment. Tbey stopped and listened. Wash thought he heard the burglar in the parlor. Simpson felt sure the rascal was in the dining room pocketing the spoons. So while Wash trod noiselessly front wards, Simpson stepped stealthily to the rear. Midway in the ball they cauic into collision, llach ftlt per fectly certain that the other was the burglar. Wash grappled w ith Lis antago nist iastantly. Simpson knew that a death struggle had begun, so he took hold w iih all his might. Neither bad a chance to draw his weapon. Wash strove to throw his burglar down, and Simpson, perceiving the game, made a huge effort to pros trate Wash. They pushed, and pull ed, jerked, and shoved and panted, bumping up against the wall, kicking up the carpet, and making 6uch a hubbub that Mrs. Simpson, op stairs in ber room and afraid to come out, lifted up her voice and screamed with awful vehemence. After a fearful and desperate strug gle, daring which Wash bad his coat torn to rags and a couple of hand fuls of hair pulled out, and Simpson had his nose jammed against a chair until it felt as if it bad swelled to the size of a watermellon, Wash let go a moment to get Lis breath. There upon Simpson made a rush for the front stairs quietly, in the dark, and Wash pretty well scared and tired of war, dashed off np the back stairs, resolved to go and see why Simpson didn't come down and help wipe the burglar out. As Simpson got to the lauding be saw Wash's form by the dim light from the bath room, in the back en try. "Who's that ?" shouted Simpson nervously, feeling for his revol ver. "Me Wash !" replied his brother ia law. Simpson went to him and said : "Thunder and lightning, Wash! whv didn't you come down sooner ?" ".Soouerl by, wbere've you been, I've had the most awful time you ever beard of." "So hare I," replied Simpson. "There is a burglar in the house, and I've been tearing him to pieces." "Vou don't say so ? Why, my gracious, I've had a fight with one, too and I think I laid him out !" "Vou did ? Where ?" "Why down Stairs, there in the front entrv." "Not in the entrv, rou don't meau ?" "Ves," said Wash, "in the entry ; nearly banged the head off him. Where ws your man ?" "Why, in "the entry, too. Jueer I didn't hear you !" "It is queer," replied Wash, "he cause I hammered his nose against a chair until it must be smashed flat" "Whose nose?" "The burglar's,: and he tore my coat to rags, and pretty nearly scalped me." "Who did V "The burglar." Simpson was silent for a minute and then be said: "Come in here to tho light." Tbey entered the bath room, and Wash looked tt Simpson, and Simp son looked at U'asa. "Wash you're the biggest idiot ic the stale. Hang me if 1 don't ber lieve you've been fighting with me! look at my nose ?" "No! Vou don't say? Iid pull out your burglar's bair. you and splinter up bis coat ?" "I'm afraid I did," Eaid Simpson "Mr. Simpson," eaid Wash, calm ly, "If there is a bigger ass on the conliaent than I am, 1 think I can lay my band on the man ; a party by the name of Jim Simpson." Just at tbis juncture, Mrs. Simp son flew fiom ber room, down to the ball way, and into the bathroom, where she fell on ber knees, clasped ber bands and shrieked: "Save me, James! ob, save me! Washington, save me ! save me ! Don't let me be; murdered! Don't! don't! oh, don't! Simpson looked sheepish! v at Washington; without saying a word, be seized Mrs. Simpson by the arm, ran her over to ber bedroom, and Cammed the . door. Then George Washington TJuda went sadly up stairs, disgorged his niurdercuj ap paratus, locked his bDwie knife in his trunk, and went to oea. Both combatants swore becrecy; but Simpson couldn't help telling his wife and she spread it, oi course, ana bo here it is. Ma r Aaei:r. Dulrn JIrrit. It is possible that even the young of the sober-minded Datcbmen tali in love? Young people do fall in love in the customary manner, and the swain makes his offer without any intermediate assistance. A mar riage of convenience is an unhea'd-of thing. Consent of parents, however, is Decessary, f jr without it the mar riage of persons, even up to the age of tn'rty, may be declared absolutely null and void; but any one who is more than twenty-one bas a legal means of bringing a recalcitrant pa rent to reason. When all the de lightful private arrangements have been made, and consent of parents obtained, the engagement soon gets abroad, and the young couple have to go in company to make calls upon his friends and her friends. The proverbial slip 'twixt cup and lip is not unknown in Holland as else where; nevertheless, this system of making formal engaged calls certain ly does tend to prevent -a rupture upon slight grounds; for it is a mat ter of do small embarassment to call upon the same people a second time and ceremoniously introduce sweet heart number two ! It is held to bs part of a lover's duties to accompa ny his mistress to parties and balls, and also his right and pleasure to lake her to theatres and concerts unaccompanied by a chaperon; but he is seldom asked to pay a visit in the same bouse with her for more than the day. Lovers always choose the bouse and buy the furniture to gether during the courtship. When the lime comes the two go together alone to the town-ball tor the "aan teckeniug" or betrothal. This is merely a public notice of the inten tion to marry, and is given in wri ting. The notice is then put into a kind of a box, protected by brass wire, and placed for some time in a conspicuous part of the hall. Bans are also published in church. A run away match is held to be thorough ly disgraceful, is accomplished" with difficulty, ood seldom attempted. Friends now. ia pUco of wedding cards, receive by post a lithographed document announcing the a unlock - ening. ua tbe tjrst Minaay aitcr- noon subsequent to this tbe bruid and bruidgrootu, who are thus call ed in the iutervat between the aau- teekening and tbe wedding-day, hold a grand reception in the drawiag room of the father of tbe bruid. A sofa, sometimes gayly decorated with flowers and evergreens, beiug occupied by the two; the bruid's re lations range themselves at ber right hand, the bruidgroom's at lis. Tbe bruid wears ber wedding-dress, veil, and orange wreath on this occasion, and tbe company generally are ia gals costume. Visitors then, when announced, march up between the two opposite lines of relations, and maka pretty speeches to the happy pair, and," after taring intrusted tbexselves for a short time to the bruidmeisjes, who, dressed for tbe! occasion, bhow the presents, placed upon tbe table at tic other end of the room, and offer hippooras and sweets called bruidssuikers, and cake, make a rapid departure, and are suc ceeded by others. The wedding commonly takes place on the Thurs day week after reception Sunday, and during the interval balls and pariies are given in honor of the young couple. On the appointed day of the wedding-party bruid and bruidgroora, going alone in the first carriage, make first for the town-hall. The burgomaster marries them, makes a little speech, and receives their signatures; to all this there must be four witnesses. Then to church in tbe same order. The par ty having assembled in a sort of ves try, tbe bruidgroom gives his right arm to the bruid, and leads the way to tbe chancel (reserved nowadays for marriages only) or to the body of the church in front of the pulpit There tbe pair seat themselves up on a central sofa, and relations rane themselves at the aantcekening re ception. The ceremony is simple, the couple being already married; After a by tun has been sung they merely have to acknowledge the fact of marriage in answer to the clergy man, and having advanced to two kneeling chairs ready placed a few steps in front, receive a blessing and a short exhortation. .No ring is used, but one is' sometimes worn subse quently. The Dew husband then gives his left arm to bis wife and leads the way home again. Tbe wedding breakfast is a small affair, attended by rery near relations only, and tbe happy pair slip off without adieux as soon as possible. The wedding dress is never worn again in its original stale. Settlements seem to be in full accord witb tbe Code Napoleon. Amrrlrna MillivMnlrrn.

"Head-bunting," says St. John, "is not bo much of a religious cere mony among tbe Pakatans, Borneo, as mtrely to showr their bravery or manliness. Wben tbey quarrel it is a constant phrase, 'How many heads did your father or grandfather gel ?' If less than bis own number, 'Well, then, you have no occasion to be proud.' " The head of an enemy is of inconvenent bulk; and wben tbe journey home is long, there arises tho question caunot a proof that aa enemy has been killed be given by carrying back a part only ? In some places tbe savage infers that it can, aad acts on the inference. Tbis mod ification and its meaning are well shown in Ashantee, where "The General in command sends to tbe capital tbe jaw-boues of the slain enemies;" end where, as Kauifeyer further tells us, "a day of rejoicing occurred on July 3, when 19 loads of jaws arrived from the seat of war as trophies of victory." W hen first found, tbe Tabiians, too, carried away the jaw-bones of their enemies; and Cook saw fifteen of them fasten ed up at the end of a house. Simi larly of Vate, where "the greater the chief the greater the display of bones," we read that if a slain ene my was one "who spoke ill of the chief, his jaws are bung up in tbe chief's bouse as a trophy" a tacit threat to others who viliGet him. A recent account of another Papuan race inhabiting Boigu, on tbe coast of Xew-(Jainea, further illustrates the practice, ana also its social ef fect. Mr. Stone writes; "By na ture these people are bloody and warlike among themselves, frequent' ly making raids to the 'Big Laud,' and returning in " triumph witb tbe heads and jaw-bones of their slaugh tered victims, the latter becoming the property of the murderer, and tLe former of him who decapitates the botjy. he jaw. bone is consequently cent as ine most valued iropby, and tbe more a man possesses tbe greater he becomes in the eves of his fellow- mcn." It may be added that, by the Jupis of South America, tro. nhies of an allied kind were worn. In honoring a victorious warrior, "Among seme tribes they rubbed his pulse witb one of the eyes of the dead and bung the mouth upon his arm like a bracelet" With the display cf jaws as trophies, there may be named a kindred use of teeib America furnishes Instances. The Caribs "strung together tbe teeth of sucn of their ensmies as they had slaiu in battle, and wore them ou their legs and arms." The Tupis, af ter devouring a captive, preserved "the teeth strung iu necklaces." Tbe Moxos women wore "a necklace made of the teeth of enemies killed by their huibinds in battle." Ja the times of the Spanish invaders, tbe Central Americans made aa image, aud ia its mouth were inserted teeth taken from the SpaniardJ whom ihey bad killed." And a passage quoted above specifies teelh as among the trophies worn by the Ashaateos. Other parts cf the head, easily de ta'ched and carried, also serve. Where many enemies are slain, the collected ears yield ia small bulk a meaus of counting; and probably .engis Khan bad tbis end in view when, in Poland, he "filled cine sacks with the right ears of the slain." Noses, again, are in some cases CLosen as easily enumerated trophies. Anciently, by (Jonstantine V., "a plate of noses was accepted as gratelul offering;" and, at the pres ent lima, tbe nosos they have taken are carried by soldiers to iheir lead ers in Montenegro. That the slain Turks thus deprived of their noses, even to the extent of 500 on one battle-field, were so treated in retali ation for the decapitations tbe Turks had been guilty of, is true : but this excuse does not alter the fact "that the Montenegrin chiefs could not be persuaded to give up the practice of paying their clansmen for the mini btr of noses produced." An effort is made in Lngland to abolish actions for breach of promise of marriage. Parliament is petition ed uot to pass such a law aod tbe ladies set forth their objections to its passage in the following sensible and strong arguments : "Marriage is tbe natural aod hon orable profession in which the major ity of women maintain themselves by the discbarge of tbe conjugal, social and domestic duties which appertain to tbe position of a wife; the entrance on this profession cotiuj 10 a woman through an offer or promise if mar riage, tbe acceptance of such offer or promise debars the woman from form ing otber ties, and tbe breaking or non performance of such promise binders her from obtaining an estab lishment ia life, inasmuch as a wo man ho Las given ber promise and affections to oue man cannot transfer them to another without grievous log-; men do not usually many for maintenance, while marriage is re garded as tbe proper and usual means through w hich women obtain a main tenance; therefore a breach of mar riace by a man to a woman causes a oecuniary loss which is not. usually suffered through a breach of promise by a woman to a man; and upon these and ether grounds tbe petition' era pray that leave may not be grant ed to bring in a bill to abolish ac tions for breach of promise of mar tiaee. Ood aad tbe Ancrln ljMikiii(lign it was raiQiosr, and tbo streets were gloomj aod uniaviiiajr". Aa express wagoo beaded the procession, id which was a gray-haired lady be- neatb aa old umbrella, which par tially sheltered her aad tbe driver from tbe raia. She was bowed with grief aad sorrow, aud wore that tired, wearj aspect of despair which beto kened hopelesaoess. Just behind ber was a rough coffin. What it contain ed could only bs guessed by infer ence. In a lumber wagon jut-t behind the coHin came a family of children, drenched witb rain and shivering in their wet rags. Dot tbey were ail crjiny and bow ed witb angoish. It was a sad eight, and told a tale of po verty and sorrow in language which spoke louder than words. An aged widow, too proud to give ber deceased consort a paup ers burial. A aa ana eorrowtul family in a borrowed wagon. No i friends, no bearse, no coffin but a ! rough pine box, no carriages ; noth- j tog hut a drenching rain, a dreary ( journey and a gloomy return. If j was the most afTisclicg funeral that j 1 .1 .
