“-.You’ro a hateful, tantalizing thing I” ex
claimed Miss Popkio,lho pretty mantua-ma
tfer,to her late-Joyer, Mr. Augustus Tenton, a
young carpenter, Who had just set up for him-
Self, and was te hare married (he petulant
beauty, whom he had just accused of the uo>
pardonable I'm of flirting.
“ Very well, Julia—it’s all rery well,” said
the young man, in that lone which, whatever
.the- words may be, expresses that everything
is as wrong as possible. “ Have it as you
like; lam glad I have found you out in sea
son.”
“ And I found out your hateful temper long
ago. What a miserable creature I should
-have been, if I had married you, ha! hal
ha !" and the pretty creature laughed bitterly
and hysterically. ’
Now we’ve sawed it off square,” said
the carpenter, “ it’s no use to have any spli
cing and joining work afterwards, I mean
the separation shall be final.”
“ Our minds agree on that matter,” said
the young lady tartly. She flew to a table,
tore Open the drawer, and plucked out a
packet of letters, which she tossed to him con
temptuously, “ Last evening you sent me the
letters I’d written to you, and I tore ’em into
bits—and here are your false letters lo roe—
all full of falsehoods, sir—chock full.”
“ They weren’t half as lender as those you
wrolo lo me." returned the carpenter.
“ You’re a vile creature!” screamed the lit
tle milliner. And she loro out o( her bosom
a miniature she had worn there for weeks,
and hurled it at the offender. *fTake your
picture back. That was false, too, like all
the rest. It was shockingly flattered.”
“ It happened to be a daguerreotype,”said
the young carpenter, as he pocketed the af
front.
“ Begone, sit!” cried the young lady, stam-
ping .ber feev.
“ I obey you with pleasure,” replied the re
jected one ; “ and 1 wish you joy of your new
conquest. Fizzle is a charming young fellow
—filly, at least—wears one of his wigs. I
overheard you last night assuring him that he
was the first that ever touched your maiden
heart —and you only secured the little wea
zen-faced booby by that falsehood. ,
With these slinging words the young man
withdrew. What had severed these young
hearts ? The merest trifles that oftenest lay
waste the gardens of this world —thoughtless
coquetry —flirtation on the one side, and
groundless jealousy on the other. But the
rupture had been effected, and now to render
it irremediable, the fair Julia hastened to se
cure her withered beau.
Fizzle, the barber, had that morning receiv
ed a note from tho fair one, requesting his pro
fessional services, to dress her hair for a ball,
to whjih they were both invited, and he came
to artange her raven locks and plead his love
at the same time. Ho was a little, time-worn,
weazen-faced fellow, prodigiously self-concei
ted, and more exacting and jealous in his dis
position than even the carpenter.
Ho soon made his appearance, paid his re
spects, and commenced his duties.
“ What a delightful occupation'l” he mur
mured, «s he leaned over the head of his in
amorata, “ thus to arm beauty for conquest.
And to feel that while we are preparing her
for admiratidn, our heart heats only for her
“ armdrer.”
“ And have none of those fino.ladies whose
heads you dress, ever touched you heart, Ju
lius T asked Miss Popkin. “Don’t pull my
hair back so.”
“Can you ask me?” murmured Frizzle.
“ No! no eyes ever touched my soul (ill
yours beamed upon it,” said the enamored
barber. “ And your heart, dearest, was un
touched, notwithstanding the world said you
loved that stupid blockhead, Teuton ?"
“ I didn’t love him one bit i I only endured
his company, because I had no one else to go
about with me,” answered Julia, readily, but
not without a secret twinge of conscience.
Frizzle was taking off a curl paper, but
that did not prevent his talking; yet he was
suddenly silent.
“ What are you doing ?” cried Miss Pop
kin, for the barber stood behind her chair out
of sight.
“ You don’t answer me, Mr. Frizzle,” con
tinucd the young lady.
No reply. The milliner turned her head,
and beheld the barber, standing transfixed,
witb'an open note in his bands, gazing on it
as if there was a horrid fascination in its
character. The truth instantly flashed upon
her mind. It was one of her love-letters to
Teuton, which she meant to have destroyed,
but which she had carelessly employed in
putting up her hair.
“ Give me that paper instantly I” she ex
claimed, springing to her feet.
“ Not till I’ve read every word of it!”
cried the barber. “ It’s your hand-writing
your name at the bottom. You call' the car
penter your dearest love, and you call me a
weazen-faced old monkey. F. stands for
Frizzlo, marm, and “ weazen-faced old mon
key in a wig,” means me. I wear a wig,
ma'am! You’re a deceiver, ma’am.” -
“ Who are you speaking to in that way t”
cried the deep, manly voice of thefjyoung car
penter, who had traced Frizzle to the house,
and wished to ruin his happinesses his own
bad been destroyed.
“ To that gypsey ! that flirt!’’
“Oh I Augustus,” cried ihp young lady,
bursting into tears, “ will you suffer this old
wretch to call me names 1"
The appeal was not made in vain. The
young carpenter seized the barber, grinning
like an old vindictive ape, by the nape of his
neck, and the next moment he was spinning
down the staircase without an opportunity to
count the steps.
The poet tells us that the quarrels of lov
ers end in a renewal of love. Before Augus
tus left the fair Julia, they were on more en
dearing terms than ever, and when hb went
away, bo took with him every scrap- of the

There was a Wedding At WiltWyck on' the
4th, John W. Tyler, dr parts unkp6wn,,bo<
log riiarcjed oy the Rev. Ktr, Porl,of Wllt
wyck Chape), to Miss Sarah.Pernteltß Pott,
of Bsopiis.' The bridegroom is.a real lire'
Yankee, of some forty_yenrt, of intense ac
tivity, who has been prowling around this
and neighboring counties for tenebing juven
iles to slog ahd giving concerts of his pupils.
During his teaching in Readout, be bad
among his pupils the girl above named, who
is a daughter of the late John T. Post, of
Esopus. Her widowed mother Uvea in a se
cluded bouse near the base of Hussey’s Hill,
on the proceeds of a few acres, with four
children, of whom Sarah was the eldest.—
Tyler’s attentions to Sarah, who is a healthy
looking girl of seventeen, were the subject of
remark last winter, as he usually escorted
her home, and, as. it subsequently appeared,
made her mother’s house his head-quarters.
The intimacy ended in the marriage recorded
above, but not without some impediments,
too trifling however to prevent the course of
their ardent love.
Mr. Tyler has a peculiar voice, and a lady
who was visiting a friend at Esopus, recog
nized it in a choir of the church near Port
Ewen, She stated the' fact of bis being a
married roan, and that be had a wife and sev
era! children at East Chatham on the eastern
border of Columbia county. -At the instance
of some of the Esopus folks, she wrote to a
friend in Chatham vicinity, stating Tyler’spo
sition hereabouts. T
On the 14th, Mr. Hasbrouck, acting post
master here, received a letter from the post
master at Lenox Mass., written at the request
of Tyler’s wife, in which the facts of Tyler’s
real connections were made known, end ask
ing that the family of the young woman with
whom it was reported he was about forming
an alliance, should be apprised of it. Of
course ibis came too late.
On the 15th, a second to the Postmaster
was received by Mr. H. from a nephew of J.
W. T., saying that Tyler had a wife and
four living children at East Chatham, that a
fifth, an infant died last March and that the
family had been kept from freezing and star
vation by tho kindness of neighbors, during
Tyler’s protracted absence in the progress of
this amour.
Though too lata to prevent the legal con
sumation of his viliainy, other letters previ
ously received were in season to pul matters
in train for his punishment. Sufficient proof
was had to justify the issue of a warrant for
his arrest on charge of bigamy, and several
Esopus people very properly look the matter
in hand. On the evening of the 14 th, Mrs.
P's house was visited by an officer, but Tyler
managed to escape. On the evening of the
15th, a parly under the direction of officer
Malay of this place,'took position in the woods
near the house, and toward nightfall saw
Sarah leave the house, and direct her course
toward a cleared lot or two on the hill side.
This gave them the clue, and the rascal was
seized, fully committed, and carried to King
ston jail where he now lies.
Tyler is an unblushing villain, and bore
himself, aAer hia arrest, with the most con
summate impudence. He thinks it will bo an
easy mailer to slip through the meshes of
the law. But we fancy his passage is booked.
Of course the mother is sorely grieved at
the daughter’s ruin, and no doubt charges
herself with some blame in allowing the pre
cious villain to become an inmate of her fam
ily | for Tyler has in fact lived there since
last March, when he left his family after a
brief visit, promising to retufn in a few days.
His own family, among whom is a daugh
ter just the ago of his victim here, will feel the
heaviest consequences of the crime,—Rond

Tlxe Old Man.
“ I am weary—let me rest,” said an old
man, as he turned from the beaten path, slow
ly seating himself upon a rock by the rood
side. The dust of (ravel was thick upon his
shoes, and the sweat stood in beaded drops
on his wrinkled brow. The wind came kind
ly as he wiped his forehead and tilled the
scattering hairs of grey. His eye was dim
as he turned.it to (he descending sun, and
his hand trembling as he shaded his gaze
from the bright beams. ■
The old man tea* weary. He had thread,
ed a long pilgrimage. One by one his kin
had turned away and tell him to tread the
path alono. We leaned upon our scythe and
watched him, with a tear on our lid. And
his frame was once as fbll of lusty life as
ours—his brow as unwrinkled, and his heart
as young and full of hopes. His had been
a long history, and he had seen sorrow. The
world needed him no, longer. A long hour
he sat upon the rock, and then slowly got
upon his feet and went up the hill. His bent
frame stood clearly out against the evening
sky as the sun.set beyond him. We saw
not the old traveler again; but in the church
yard, down among the stranger poor, he had
a deed of six feel of soil. He was at rest
upon his pillow of earth. He had turned
away from the highway of life and gone
down into the dark Chief,
Hvdbopuobia.— Some seven weeks since
Mr. Stephen Hoag, a respectable former who
resides at Potter’s Corners, while working
near his residence, was suddenly attacked by
a rabid dog, which threw him to the earth
and inflicted several wounds upon, bis person,
(earing the flesh in a shocking manner. His
wife and daughters, who witnessed the attack,
proceeded, with such weapons as they could
find, to his rescue, and finally, finding that
the animal would not release its hold, split its
head open with an ax. in due time Mr.
Hoag’s wounds healed, and it was hoped be
would recover, but, on Sunday last he was
seized with spasms, which resulted in his
death on Tuesday. —Buffalo Express.

per so constructed as to give a direct draft where heat is not wonted for baking or
warming. The amount of heat is immense for the quantity of fuel consumed. The Four
Boiler is propeily a Village Stove, and works well with wood or coal. You can gel a
meal for ten persons in thirty-five minutes, with seven pounds of dry maple wood. Its ap
pearance is grand, and it is a very pleasant stove to do work wiih. It is very appropriate
for large silting or dining rooms, and warms with less fire than any parlor stove. The

large families and public houses. This is, in truth, a FARMER’S STOVE.

The great American Remedy for
Fever Aspic, Rheumatism, Dysentery,
Ckolics, and Griping Pains, Bruises ana
Strains, Burns cs’ Scalds, Fresh Wovnas,
Dyspepsia, Coughs dj- Colds,
AND ALL OTHER KINDRED DISEASES.
'THIS Medicine has proved, and will prove
an unconditional Pain Destrover in all casei,
whether External or Internal. Hence it has recei
ved the appropriate name of “ Death-to-Pain." H
has, by being kept on hand by families who know
its value, been the means of saving money, and of
ten life, by its timely use in sudden attacks, and in
case of accidents. In all bruises and flesh ■wthmtif
this Death-to-patn is the best embrocation that
be found. The soreness is immediately exttactea
—swellings reduced—and profuse bleeding stopped.
A single dose will case the most severe griping pains
in the buwcls, and a few applications will case the
severest rheumatic and nervous pains. Dyspepsia
and its train of diseases is driven from its strong
hold. “ Fever and Ague,” in tho language or t
western agent “ can’t stand before old Leddy ana
live."' Indeed it is so with nearly every disease in
the catalogue. A Medicine for the Million
The remedy is composed of a large number
articleSall entirely vegetable, each a remedial agent
in itseliV-yet so united as to form a most powerful
combination, and to take away one of these agent#
would detract from its merits. One,
and the most powerful, of these articles,is'a root
procured for this medicine only from the island or
Taumago, in.lhe South Pacific, called
TAYU, OR LIFE ROOT!
It ia used by tho natives in almost every disease,
and the secret of its virtues was imps, rtcdto the
proprietor by a native.
