Farms of various sizes to suit the purchaser. A

parts of tho Middle States and Now England, have
settled tboro the past year, improved their places
and raised excellent crops. The price of the land Is
at the lop sum of from $lO to $2O per acre, the soil
is of the best quality for the production of Wheat,
Clover, Peaches, Grapes and Vegetables. IT I
CONSIDERED THE BEST FRUIT SOIL. IN
THE UNION. The place is perfect secure fr tu

Crops of, grain,

root judgment can be formed of the productiveness of
the land. ' Titolerme - are Made easy to secure a ra

actual improvement. The result bus been that
within the past year, some three hundred houses
have been erected, two mills, one steam, four stores,
some forty vinyards and peach orchards planted, and
a large number of other improvements, making it a
desirable and active place of business.
THE MARKET,

DIVORCES.BY MISTAKE.
One winter there came to Trenton, Now
Jersey, two men named Smith and Jones, who
had both of them designs on the Legislature.
Jones had a bad wife ; and was in love with
a pretty woman—he wished to be divorced
from his bad wife, so that he might marry the
pretty woman, who, by the way, was a widow,
with black eyes, and such a form. Therefore
Jones came to Trenton for a divorce.
Smith had a good wife as an angel, and the
mother of ten children, and Smith did not
want to bo divorced, but did want to got a
charter for a turnpike or plankroad, to extend
from Pig's Run to Terrapin Hollow.
Well, they, with these different errands,
came to Trenton, and addressed the assembled
wisdom with the usual arguments. First,
suppers mainly composed of oysters with a
rich background of venison ; second, liquors
in great plenty, from " Jersey lightning,"
which is a kind of locomotive at full speed
reduced to liquor shape, to Newark cham
paigne. To speak in plain prose, the divorce
man gave a champaigno supper, and Smith,
the turnpike man, followed with a eham
paighe breakfast, under the mollifying influ
ence of, which the assembled wisdom passed
both the divorce and turnpike bills; and
-Dunes_tad_Smith—a_copy_of_each_bilLin_theip
pockets—went rejoicing home, over miles of
sand, and through the tribulation of many
stage coaches.
Smith arrived home in the evening, and as
he sat down in his parlor, his pretty wife be
side him—and how pretty she did look I and
five of her children overhearing the other five
studying their lessons in the corner of the
room Smith was induced to expatiate upon the
good results of his mission to Trenton.
" A turnpike. my dear ; I am one of the
directors and, will be president. It will s ot
me up, love; we can Rend our children to the
boarding school, and live in style out of the
toll. Here is the charter honey."
" Let me see it," said the pretty little wife.
who was ono of the nicest of wive; with
plumpness and goodness dimpling all over her
face, "let me see it," as she leaned over Mr.
Smith's shoulder."
lESNLIT GROV'E
But all at once Smih's visage grew long;
Smith's wife's visage grew black. Smith was
not profane, but now ho ripped out au awful
oath. r"Blast us, wife, thoseinfernal scoun
drels at Trenton have gone and divorced us!"
It was too true ; the parchment which he
held was a bill of divorce, in which the names
of Smith and Smith's wife appeared in fright
fully logible letters.
Mrs. Smith wiped her eyes with the corner
of her apron. "Here's a turnpike she said
sadly, " and with the whola of our ten chil
dren staring me in the face, I aint vour wife!
Here's a turnpike.
"Blast the pike and the legislature, and—
IPell, the fact is that Smith reduced to sin
gle blessed, enacted into a stranger to hit
own wife, • swore awfully. Although the
night was dark, and most of the denizens
of Smith's town had gone to bed; Smith bid
his late wife to put on her bonnet, and arm
in arm they prOceeded to the clergyman of
their church.
"Goodness, blew; me !" exclaimed the good
man as he saw them enter,—Smith looking
like the last of June shad, Smith's wife wip
ing her eyes with the corner of her apron—
" Goodness, blesime, what's the matter?"
" The matter is, I want you to marry us two
right oil'," replied Smith.
"Marry you!" ejaculated the , :lettymni.
with expanded fingers and awful eyes; " art.
you &auk, or what is the innttcr with you?"
I However he finally married them over
straightway and would not take a fee ; fact is,
grave as he was, he was dying to be alone
that he might give vent to his suppressed
laugh that was shaking him all over ; ;Ey!
Smith and Smith's wife went joyfully hoiat.
and kissed every one of thcir ehil s ken:
little Smith's never knew that their father
and mother had ever boon made strangers
to each other by their . legislative enactment.
Meanwhile, and on the same night; done:
returned to his native town—Burlington I he
lieve—and sought at once the fine Pluck eye's
which ho had hoped shortly to cull his own.—
The pretty widow eat ou a sofa, a white ker
chief tied carelessly about her round white
throat, her black hair laid in silky waves
against each rosy cheek.
"Divorce is the word," cried Jones, play.
fully patting her double chin ; "the fact is,
Eliza, I'm rid of that cursed woman, and you
and I'll be. married to night. I knew how to
manage those scoundrels at Trenton. A cham
pagne supper—or was it breakfast ? did the
business for them. Put on your bonnet, and
let's us go to the preacher's at once, dearest."
The widow, who was among widows at.
peaches among apples, put, on hor bonnet and
took Jones' arm, and—
" Just look how handsome it is put on parch
ment!" cried Jones, pulling out the document
before her; "hero's the law that says Jacob
Jones and Ann Caroline Joites are two."
Putting her plump gloved hand on his
shoulder she did look at it.
"0 'dear I" she said, with hor rosy lips,
and sank back half fainting, on the ants.
NUMBER 8.
"0 blazes !" cried Jones, and aatAr.
her, rustling the fatal pa.rehruent in hie
" here's a lot of happinesa and thttrapkgo
gone to ruin."
It was a hard case. Instead of beiiig
vorced and at liberty to, marry the widow, Ja
cob Jones was simply by the legislature tf
New Jersey, incorporated into a turnpito
company and what made it worse, 'atithotited
to run from Burlington to Bristol. When you
reflect that Burlington and Bristol are located
on opposite sides of the Delaware river, - yak
will observe the extreme hopelessnetti Of
Jones's case.
" Its all the fault of that turnpike man Au'
gave them the champagne supper- , -or 'vras It
the breakfast?" cried Jones in agony.
they'd chartered me to run a turnpike hem
Pig's Run to Terrappin Hollow, I might bare
borne it ; the very idea building a turnpike
from Burlington to Bristol bears an absarait*
on,the facifbf it."
So it did.
" Aud you ain't divorced ?" said Eliza,
tear running down each cheek.
"Nol" thundered Jones, crushing his hit
between his knees, " and what is worse, the
legiAature is adjourned, and gone home
drunk, and won't be back to Trenton till noil
year-l"
It was a hard case.
The mistake (?) had occurred on the iast
day of the session, when legislators and tran
scribing clerks wore laboring under a chum
paguu breakfast. Smiths name had been put
away where Jones' ought to have been, and
" wi.)ey worsay," as the Latin poet has it:
A Woman without Religion
A man without religion is at bait a poor
reprobate, tho football of destiny, with no tie
linking him to affinity, and to the wonderoni
eternity that is begun within him; but a wo
man without it is even worse—a flank' With.:
out heat, a rainbow without color, a flower
without perfume. A 'nail may, in some sort;
tie his frail hopes and honors with weak
shifting g - round tackle, to Witless or to tliti
world ; but a woman without that anchor
called Faith is a drift and ft.' wreck! A man
may clumsily continue a kind of moral reepon
sibility out of hie relations to mankind ; btrt
a woman in her, comparatively isolated sphere,
where affection, and not purpose, is the con
trolling motive, can find no basis for any spr
tern of right action but that of a epiratual
faith. A man may craze his thought and
brain to tritst fullness in suclyt poor harborage
as Fame' and Reputation may stretch before
him ; where can she put her hope in storms, if
not in Heal - en? And what sweet truthful
ness, that abiding love—tightening them with
the pleaant radiance, when the world's storms
Brunk like an army of smoking cannon—
what can bestow it all, but a holy soul tie to
what is above the storms, and to what is
stronger than aritnny with cannon? Who
that has enjoyed the love of a christian moth
er but will echo the thought with energy, and
hallow it with a tear!
DASIAGES AGAINST A GAS Comr.ss . r.—:-An ae
t ion for darq,ges, brought by John Murphy,
proprietor ot's,_hotel in the vicinity of the
Reading Railroad, at Pottstown, against the
Pottstown Gas Company, was tried in the Com
mon, Picas of Montgomery county last week,
and resulted in au award of $l4OO for the
plaintiff. The Gas Company erected their
works, -in the fall of 1856, on a lot adjoining .
Mr. Murphy's promises, and in consequence of
their proximity, the water in a well belonging
to the hotel was alleged to have been Spoiled
and become unfit for uso. It was also alleged
that in consequence of the odor of gas about
he hotel, the value of the property, for tavern .
purposes, had been seriously impaired:
