UNDER FALSE COLORS "My pocket book's goner exclaimed an excited passenger, who had stepped up to the bar to liquor, and so suddenly found himself without means to liqui date. "Mine tool" chorussed a dozen of us, simultaneously chipping our hands on our personal subtreasuries and finding them vacant. There was a commotion on board the gond steamer Swiftsure, one of the best then navigating the Mississippi. A rue ful set we were on whom thus unexpect edly dawned the fact of present insolven. cp. My own case was peculiarly hard.— The money I had lost was my all, I had just drawn it from a hank to pay for a home I had bargained• tar, and to which I was expecting soon to conduct my long intended bride. Poor Kate—l could hard ly, in justice, ask her to wait longer. "It is evident that we have pickpockets on board," observed a grave•looking gen tleman, who had already . found time to talk himself into a leader among us. It waif pretty evident. "They may have gone ashore with the booty," suggested •another"we have al ready made several stomppages." "True," replied the grave gentleman ; "still it is proper that a general search be instituted. It 'will at least serve to dear of suspicion those presen t." "Very right," was the general voice. "And, as a mover of the proposal," the gentleman continued, "I first offer for scrutiny my own person and effects." For form's sake the offer was accepted. Of course no discoveries were made in that quarter. Beyond a decent supply of clothing, a few religious books, a moder ate sum of mony, nothing was found on the gentleman's person or among his ef fects. "At least they have left me my little pittance," he remarked, returning it to his pocket. "I presume they hardly thought it worth while to rob a clergy man." Had we known the gentleman's calling sooner—we were inexcusable not to have surmised it—we certainly should have insistod on his exinption from the test he had just undergone. One after another were put through the ordeal with equally fruitless results. till it came the turn of a slipshod little man, who had hung back to the last, and whom nobody seemed to have noticed un til now. "Step forward, eir, and submit like the rest," said the clergyman. The little man obeyed. As he ap proached, a singular chang% came over A the minister's countenance. t grew pale But the feeling, whatever it was was evan escent. "Do your duty gentlemen," he said in his usual tone of authority. Those appointed to conduct the search proceeded with it. This time results were not so barren. Every one of the missing wallets was found in the little man's pos A FAMILY NEWSPAPER--DEVOTED TO LITERATURE, LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS. ETC.

"What shall be done with him ?" was the general query. "It's a pity the laws are so laxly ad ministered hereabouts," remarked tht minister. "that's true," said another, "there's no use turning him over it, thy law ; be would be out of its e.luteh in a 1, -Let's deal with ;tin) .Isay," spoke up a burly loaking planter from the bayous. "My function forbids that I should ae• lively counsel violence," said the clerical ~.enticinan, with a touch of snivel in his lone .Ne . xer-yotr - ritinc4 - Dmittierthi: planter, "we'll take the responsibility-" "It is greatly to be regretted," the min ister went on, "that such necessities should ever exist, but., it must be confessed, they Sometimes do exist." This time the snivel was more percepti bk. "Sound doctrine, old boss 1" again put in the planter. Just leave the practice A rope , was procured, at one en' of which a noose was improvised, the other being made fast to one of the staunchiong, and the' culprit was giyen ten minutes to prepare.- "Have you no remonstrance to make against this?" asked the littlenian of the minister. ' "Ask your own conscience," replied he, "what remonstrance I can make." "There is but one crime deserving„of death,"- said - the - little - man, svith-Caliti d!stinctness," and that is wilful. murder." Again the minister's fade paled. "Time's up!" admonished the planter. "Now you just mount the guard there and when you're shoved over the side, whether you're banged or drowned 'll da pend on the strength o' the rope," "Can I offer you any spiritual consola tion,.my sinful friend?" said the minister, with -a-snivel-that=was-no You hypocritical villian!" thundered the little man with sudden vehemence. "In your situation, such language to a clergyman is little short of blasphemy," returned the other. "You a celergymanl" exclaimed the little man. "If you ever entered a church in your life it was to rob it." ;(11 , 1y character, I trust is not to be as sailed by the ;handers of oue found with stolen property on him," was the dignified answer. "This has gone far enough," said the little man. "Gentlemen, I'm Tom Han ley, the detective. I hold a warrant for this man's arrest for mdrder and robbery.— It was he who picked your pockets, for he 'is an adept in the act. The accom plice to whom he passed the stolen prop erty Itook aside unobserved, before he left the boat at the landing, and by a lit tle moral suasion induced him to disgorge privately, taking good care he should at terward have no chance to communicate with his principal. Two of my men fol lowed him ashore, and ere now he is as hard fast as this one will soon be." "The detective pulled off his wig and whiskers, when the familiar face of Tom Hen key was recognized by at least a score of those present. "At a given signal, half a dozen stal wart assistants, who we had until now taken for simple passengers, came inward, and in a trice the desperate thief and murderer was taken in custody and man acled. He was taken ashore at the next landing, and in due time bad justice. An Adroit Fraud. Some nine years ago Solomon Bacon, a noted merchant in London, received a letter from his correspondent in Hamburg, which grieved and troubled him. It stated that the writer had been defaulted by his nephew, son of a widowed' sister, of $lO,OOO, and fled to London with the money. There was a reluctance to make the matter public, and Mr. Bacon was desired to keep silance; "but," the latter went on to say, "if you would invite John to dinner, and when alone tax him with the crimp•, he might perhaps refund the money. Should he do so you may give him $500." The London merchant found the young German, took him home, and when the ladies had withdrawn from the dinner table he acquainted his visitor with his knowledge of the fraud. Alarm was depicted on the countenance of his guest. "You will not make this public, Mr.- Bacon?" he asked. "No if you return me the money now and here." "But I lost 81,000 last night at Crock ford's, and have not the power, "Well," said the merchant, "return mg then $9,000, and though I a little exceed my instructions, I will nevertheless glue you back $500." "My uncle is very good," remarked the young man, and he forthwith banded from his pocket nine $l,OOO notes to his host. "I cannot change one of these," said Mr. Bacon; "will net my check do as well?' "Quite," replied the German; and hav ing received the $5OO check, hastily left. "The following morning Mr. Bacon went to his banker to pay in the notes, and found to his surprise that they were all counterfeits. His next inquiry was after his check, but that was already cash ed. He then telegraphed to his Hamburg correspondent, and learned that he was profoundly ignorant about the whole af fair. It was as adroit a fraud as was ever plotted. The chains of habit are generally too small to be felt till they are too strong to be breken.—Dr. Johnson. I'M WEARY I'm weary of life and its battles, Tired of learning so oft That one fairest and sweetest flowers Perish first in the blast of the north ; That our hopes, likc withered leaves, Fall one by one, quickly and sure ; And not even our loves and our friendships In adversity's winds will endure. rm tired, .too, oflife's envies, Its quarrels, its frauds, and its strife ; And I fain in the grave would be lying' If death were the end of life. The friends that I loved and trusted Have failed- me one by one, And my loved ones too have vanished, I —.lAte-the - mists - before - the - su . I once had a darling cousin, "With eyes that were dark and deep ;" But coldly the death shades were falling, And she fell 'mid her shadows asleep: I once loved a pretty floweret, That gay in garden smiled ; But the winter's chill breath touched it, And it faded and drooped and died. Each thing that I loved and cherished Passed from me soonest of all; And now all that's dearest and nearest . I dare not love at all • The robins sing in the morning, And the lillies dunce in the breeze That; whispering, tosses the ivy, And coquets with the laughing trees. But into my heart steal no echoes The music of—life-has fled The hopes of my childhood are ended 1 The hopes of my youth are dead t So I am weary, weary and tired ; Feign would I lie asleep, Where the grass in the churchyard swaying With the willows forever weep.

Not a trait in the character of Abra ham Lincoln was more prominent anu admired-than-his-domesticity-and-love of those times when he could surround him self with his family and entertain him self and them with cheerfulness and profi• table conversation. While he was neither a professor of re ligion, nor even fixed in his belief in any particular creed, still he was fond of rea ding and discussing the Bible. On these Sunday evenings he invariably read a chapter or two from the Scriptures, and then gave his emplanation of it. On one evening he read several pas sages in the Old and New Testani,ent a bout dreams, to which Mrs. Lincoln and the children grew very attentive. At length he raised hie eyes from the book and said— "It is strange how much there is in the Bible about dreams ; there are I think some sixteen different chapters in the Old Testament, and four in the New, in which dreams are mentioned." "Well, said Mrs. Lincoln with a slight smile, do you believe in dreams ?" "Frankly I can say that I do not, but I had one the other night that has haunt ed me ever since." "When I opened the Bible this evening, strangely enough it was at a passage about dreams, and my thoughts were in that direction." "Mr. Lincoln looked serious." "Do tell the dream father, cried bright eyed little Tad Lincoln ?" "Why, saith Mrs. Lincoln, you fright en me with your solemn looks. "Well to begin the dream, said Mr. Lincoln : About ien days ago I retired one night late. I had been up waiting for some important dispatches, and was not in bed long before I fell into slum ber, durin,gtny slumber I began to dream. I thought there was a stillness about me and I heard weeping. I thought that I got up and went down stairs, as I went from room to room, I heard nothing but moaning and weeping. lat last came to the end of the room when I entered, and there before me was a magnificent dias, on which was a corpse. I said to one of the soldiers, who is dead in the White House? He answered, the President.— How did he die I asked ? By the hand of an assassin, was the reply. I then heard a great wailing all over the house, and it was so loud that it seemed to awa ken me. I awoke much depressed and slept no more that night. On the night of the fatal 14th of April 1865, when the President was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth, . Mrs. Lincoln's first exclamation was—his dream was prophetic. This remark was not then understood. Subsequently Mr. Lincoln's dream was told to many in Washington. ONE IDEA OF POVERTY.--It was Bulwer who said that in nine cases out of ten pov erty is only an idea. Some men with 'ten thousand dollars a year suffer. more want of means than .others with three hundred. The reason is, the richer man has artifi cial wants. His income is ten thousand, and he suffers enough from being dunned for unpaid debts to kill a sensitive man. A man who earns a dollar a day, and who does not run in debt, is the happier of the two. Very few people who have never been rich will believe this, but it is true. There are thousands and thousands with princely incomes who never know a moment's peace, because they live beyond their means. There is really more happi- ness in the world among working people than among those who are called rich— always providing that poor folks do not, in a smaller way, emulate the prodigality of their rich brethern. Poverty is simply a question of the good or bad management of money in hand. MODERN SAYINGS. -- Let your motto he "Liberty or Death,"and if it comes to the pin& take the most,of it in liberty. Honor thy father and thy mother, par ticularly about circus time, when you don't know where to raise fifty cen's. Love thy neighbor as thyself. Borrow his plow, hoe or horses whenever you can, but if'he wants to borrow yours tell him that you're very sorry, but you were just going to use them yourself. A TOAST.—Woman — the last and best lof the series : if we may have her fora toast, we won't ask for any but•her. The Protestant Cow. Paddy Murphy and his wife Bridget, after many years of bard labor in ditch ing and washing, had accumulated a suf ficiency to purchase a cow, (of course they had pigs,) which they . did at the first op portunity. As it was bought of a Pro testant neighbor, Pat stopped on his way home at the house of the priest,• to pro- cure a bottle of holy water with which to exercise the false faith out of her. "Isn't she a foine creature 2', asked Pat of the admiring Bridget. "Just hold her till I fix the shed." To save the precious fluid from harm, he took it into the house and set it up in a cupboard until he had 'fixed' things.— Then he returned and brought the bottle back, and while Bridget was holding the - rope - , - nroceeded to pour it upon-her-back. But poor Pat had made a slight mis take. Standing within the same closet was a bottle of aquafortia, that had been procured for a different purpose, and, as it dropped upon the back of the poor cow,_and_the.hair began to _smoke aLd the flesh to burn she exhibited a decided appearance of restlessness. `Pour on more,Paddy,' shouted Bridget, as she WI led stoutl at the rope. EM3 'l'll give er enoug and he ewptied the bottle. Up went the heels of the cow, down her head, over went Bridget and half a, Aozen—of-the-‘childers,—and-away-dashed she infuriated bcvine down the street, to the terror of all mothers and the delight of the doffs. Poor Pat stood for a moment, breath less with astonishment, and then clapping his hands upon his hip'S, looked sorrowful liftet - the - retretiting-cowi-and exclaimed,— "Be jabbers, Bridget, but isn't the Pro testant sthrong in her—the baste ?" Brigham Young's Favorite Wife. How large is his little family circle? He had nineteen wives until I left, and forty-five children. • How does he support them? Well, the most of them support them selves. Brigham compels them to do it. For instance he only allows enough to each one to purchase the bare necessities of life—calico dresses! Women in Utah have the same pride and ambition about their personal appearance that they have anywere else. If they want anything better, they are compelled to take in boar. ! ders or do sewing, or something of that sort. That is the way he treats all of them but the favorite, Amelia Fulsom. She dresses,in silk and satin, eats at the same table with him, and does nothing all the day. The rest eat in the same dining-room, and they are compelled to look on. Ful som can do anything she likes with him. It would be interesting to know which of the nineteen wives was able to capture Brigam, and maintain an ascendency over him. How is she able to manage him? By her temper. she has an awful tem per, and she can scold him into anything. Is she good looking? 'No, she is ugly, and •over forty years old. They say lam jealous, but that is not the case. . Well, then, does ber charms lie in her intellect? No, I ain't jealous of her a bit—she is the reverse of refined—indeed, she is the coara est and mest vulgar• of all the wives of Mr. Young. Her reputation is bad—that is it was bad until she married Brigham. I don't like to repeat what is said about her all over Salt Lake. She rules him by her strong will and bad temper. How does he manage the rest of his wives? He keeps them at a distance, and no fa miliarity is allowed from them. They don't dare to speak to him except now and then when he is extra good,natured. Brigham has been a good deal of a flirt in his day. There is no excuse for his meanness towards his wives, because he is enormously wealthy.-81. Louis Globe's Interview with Ann Eliza Young. OCCUPATION.—What a glorious thing it is for the human heart ! Those who work hard seldom yield to fancied or real sorrow. When grief sits, down, folds its hands, and•mournfully feeds upon its own fears; waving the dim shadows that a lit tle exertion might sweep away into a fu neral pall, the strong spirit is shorn of its might, and sorrow becomes our master. When troubles flow upon you dark and heavy, toil not with waves, and wrestle not with the torrent ; rather seek by occu pation to divert the dark waters that threaten to overwhelm you into a thous and s channels, which the duties of life al ways present. Before you dream of it, those waters will fertilize the present and give birth to fresh flowers, that will be come pure and holy in the sunshine which penetrates to the path of' duty in spite of every obstacle. Grief; after all is but a selfish feeling, and most selfish is the man who yields himself to the indulgence of any passion which brings no joy to his fel low men. WITY FARMERS ARE HE LTIII ER THAN PROFESSIONAL MEN.-1. They may work more, and develop all the leading muscles of the body. 2. They take their exercise in the open sir, and thus breathe a greater amount of oxygen. 3. Their food and drinks are commonly less adulterated, and far my le simple.- 4. They do not overwork their brain as much as industrious professional men do. 5. They take their sleep, commonly during the hours of darkness, and do not try to turn day into night, by sleeping during the hours of light. 6. They are not, commonly, so ambi tious, and do not wear themselves out so rapidly in the fierce contests of rivalry. "Pat, you are wearing • wour stockings wrong side outward." "o . ch, and don't I know it, to be sure ! There's .a hole on the other side, there is." Mit and
