The ease was a common one, and he thought he could prescribe for it without loosing his reputation as a conjurer. "The remedy," said ho, "is a simple one, but I have never known it to fail : Always treat your husband with a smile." The woman expressed her thanks, drop ped a courtesy, and wont away.

GETTYSBURG, PA. FRIDA-Y EVENING, FEBRUARY 20, 1852. I CHILD'S DREAM OF A STAR. There was once a child, and he strolled a bout a good deal, and thought of a number of things. Ho had a sister, who was a child too, and his companion. These two used to wonder all day long. They wondered at the beauty of the flowers ; they wonder ed at the height, and blueness of the sky ; they wondered at the depth of the bright water; they wondered at the goodness and power of God who made the lovely world. They used to say to one another, sometimes, supposing all the children upon earth I were to die, would the flowers, and the water, find the sky, be sorry 1 They be-1 lieved they would be sorry. For, said they, the buds are the children of the flowers, I and the little playful streams that gambol down the hill-sides are the children o f the water; and the smallest bright specks play ing at hide and seek in the sky all night, must surely be the children of the stars; and they would all be grieved to see their playmates, the children of men, no more. 'There was one clear, -shining star that used to come out in the sky before the rest, near the church spire, above the graves.— It was larger and more beautiful, they thought, than all the others, and every night they watched for it, standing hand in hand at a window. Whoever saw it first, cried out, "1 sec the star !" And often they cried out both together, know ing so well when it would rise, and where. So they grew to be such friends Nvith it, that, before lying down in their beds, they al ways looked out once again, to bid it good night; and when they were turning round to sleep, they used to say "God .bless the star !" But while she was still very young, oh, very, very young, the sister drooped, and came to be so weak that she could no long er stand in the window at night; and then the child looked sadly out by himself, and when he saw the star, turned round and said to the patient, pale face on the bed, "I see the star !" and then a smile would come upon her face, and the 'little weak voice used to say, "God bless my brother and the star ?" And so the time came, all too soon ! when the child looked out aloue, and when there was no' face on the bed; and when there was a little grave among the graves, not there before ;and when the star made lung rays down toward him, as he saw it through his tears. Now, these rays were so bright, and they scented to make such a shining way from earth to heaven, that when the child went to his solitary bed, he dreamed about the star; and dreamed that, lying where he was, he saw a train of people taken up that sparkling road by angels. And the star, opening, showed him a great world ()flight, where many more such angels waited to re eeive them. All these angels, who were waiting, turn ed their beaming eyes upon the people, who were carried up into the star; and some came out from the long:rows in w hieh they stood, and fell upon the people's necks, and kissed them tenderly, and went away with them down avenues of light, and were SO happy in their company, that lying in his bed he wept for joy. But there were many angels who did not go with them, and among them one he knew. The patientllice that once had lain upon the bed was glorified and radiant, but his heart found out his sister among all the host. Ilis sister's nugel lingered near the en trance of the star, and said to the leader among those who had brought the people thither. "Is my brother come'" And ho said "No." She was turning hopefully away, when the child stretched out his arms, and cried, "0, sister, lam here ! Take me !" and then she turned her beaming eyes upon him, and it was night ; and the star was shining into the room, making long rays down toward him as he saw it through his tears. From that hour forth the child looked out upon the star as on the Ilome ho WAS to go to, when his time should come ; and he thought that ho did not belong to earth alone, but to the star too, because of his sister's angel gone before. There was a baby born to be a brother to the child; and while ho was so little that he never yet had spoken a word, he stretched his tiny form out on his bed, and died. • Again the child dreamed of the opened star, and of the company of angels, and the train of people, and the rows of angels with their beaming eyes all turned upon those people's faces. 'Said his sister's angel to the leader : "Is my brother come 1" And he said, "Not that one, but anoth er." As the child beheld his brother's angel in her arms, ho cried, "0, sister, I am hod Take me l" And she turned and smiled upon hiap, and the star was shining. He grew to be a young man, and was busy at his books, when an, old 'arrant cum to him, and said, "FEARLESS AND FREE." "Thy mother is no more. I bring her blessing on her darling son !" Again at night he saw the star, and all that former company. Said his sister's an gel to the loader : "Is my brother come ?" And he said, "Thy »other !" A mighty cry of joy want forth through all the star, because the mother was re-united to her two children. And he stretched out his arms and cried, "o, , mother, sister, and brother, Lc here Take me !" And they answered him, "Not yet," and the star was shining. lie grew to be a mak whose hair was turning gray, and he *u sitting in his chair by the fire-side, , heavy with grief, and with his face bedewed with tears, when the star opened oace again. SRN his sister's angel to the leader, "Is my brother come ?" And ho said, "Nay, but his maiden daughter." And the man who had been the child saw his daughter, newly lost to him, a ce lestial creature among those three, and he said, "My daughter's head is on my sis ter'sbosom, and her arm is round my mother's neck, and at her feet there is the baby of old time, and I can bear the part ing from her, God be praised !" And the star was shining. Thus the child came to be an old man, and his once smooth face was wrinkled, and' his, steps were slow and feeble, and his back was bout. And ono night as he lay up on his bed, his children standing round, ho cried, a s ho had cried se long ago, "I soc the star !" They whispered ono another, "Ito ia dying." And he said, "I am. My age is falling from me like a garment, and I move toward the star as a child. And 0, my Father, now I thank thee that it has so often open ed to receive those dear ones who await me 1" And the star was shining; and it shines upon his grave.

Om of the most beautiful we ever remora , her to have seen was by Dr. Cheovor:— "That tree, full-leaved, and swelling up in to the calm, blue summer air ! Not a breath is stirring, and yet how it waves and rocks in the sunshine. Its shadows are flung lavishly around it; birds sit and sing in its branches, and children seek ref uge beneath theta. Human affections are the leaves, the foliage, of our being—they catch every breath, and in the burden and heat of the day, they make music and mo tion in a sultry world. Stripped of thin foliage, how unsightly is human nature.— Like the same tree it stands, with shiver ing arms, tossing desparingly to Heaven— a glorious fluttering of life and warmth be fore ; an iron harp for the minstrels of the wildest winds now." A GOOD NAME "A eood name," says Solomon, "is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor than silver and gold." Children, chose it Don't refuse it, 'Tim a precious diidem ; Highly prize it ; Don't despise it ; You will need it when you're mon. Love and cherish, Keep and nourish.

LORD TETERBORO' AND THE CANARY DIRD.--'Lord Peterborough, when a young man, and about the time of the revolution, had a passion for a lady who was fond of birds sho'had - seen and hoard a fine oe nary-bird at the coffee-house near Charing cross, and entreated him to get it for her; the owner of it was a widow, and Lord Peterborough offered to buy it at a great price, which she refused. Pinding there was no other way of coming at the bird, he determined to change it; and getting one of the ,same color, with nearly 'the same tuarks, but which happened to be a hen,, went to the house ; the mistress of it ustt . ally sat in a room behind the bar, to which he had easy access ; contriving to send her out of the way, he effected his purpose, and upon her return took his leave. Ile continued to frequent the house to avoid suspicion, but forbode saying anything of the bird till about two years after, when, taking occasion to speak of it, he said to the woman :—"I would have bought that bird of you, and you refused my money for it, I dare say you are by this time sorry for it." "Indeed, sir," answered the wom an, "I am not, nor would I now take any sumfor him, for, would you believe it ? from the time that our good king was forced to go abroad and leave us, th 6 dear creature has not sung a note." GENUINE Poi raY.—Thero is so little genuine poetry now-a-days, that it is quite refreshing to meet occasionally with so beautiful a gent as the following. None hut those who have felt the 'tender passion,' can fully appreciate the intensity of the poet's "phelinks." It of course must be surmised that Miss Elizabeth—endearingly called Betsey—was a charming girl, and well worth till poet's adoration. Notic: the beauty as sublimity of the following lines : • ••13 , love, she is my heart's delight, Her name at is Miss Betsey ; 111 gu and see her this very night, 1i Heaven and Mother'll let me.' But, alas for the mortifications and dig appoiu tineuts that poetic are doomed to suf fer. On the head board of this young man's bed, the chamber-maid found, writ ton in chalk, the next morning— "l loved Mims Betscv—well. I did, And I went there for , to tell her ; But like to goose.grease quick 1 blid, For she had another feller." IN A DILESIMA.—We were much amu sed by an incident related the other day.— A gentleman, who had been absent for a considerable time, and who, during his ab sence, had raised a pretty luxuriant crop of whiskers, mustaches, &c., 'visited a rela tive whose child—an artless little girl of five or six years—he was very fund of The child made no demonstration towards saluting him with a kiss, as was usual:— "Why child," said the mother, "dont you know your uncle Hiram ! Why don't yob give him a kiss ?" "Why, ma," replied the little girl, with the most perfect sim plicity, "I don't see any place I" FOUR POlNTB.—There were four good habits a wise and a good man earnestly recommended in his counsels and by his own example, and which ho considered essentially necessary for the happy manage- ment of temporal concerns; these are punc tuality, accuracy, steadiness, and dispatch. Without the first, time is wasted ; without the second, mistakes most hurtful to our own credit and interest, and that or others, may bo committed; without the the third, nothing can be well done; and without the fourth, opportunities of,adrantage arelost which, it is impossible to recall. A great man is affable in hie converse tion, generous in his temper, and immove able n what he has maturely resolved upon. A*. t as prosperity does not make I him haughty and imperious, so neither does adversity sink him into =entree!' and de• jeetion; for, if he ever shows more spirit than ordiithry, it is when ho is illLused, and the world:is frowning upon bita.

Sir John Franklin. Mr. C. R. Weld, in a letter to the New York Times, gives the following to show that life may be sustained for a long time in the Arctic regions, and that Sir John Franklin and his companions may still survive: In the year 1843, four Russian sailors, forming part of a crew of 14 men, went iu a small vessel to fish for whalmi, on the eastern coast of Spitibergen. lly some unfortunate accident the ship mailed away, leaving the above four men on thefdreary island. Their entire stoek, at 'the time of this disaster, consisted of smill big of meal, a musket, a powder horn,. tWelie charges of amunition, an ix., a, knife, a' small kettle, a stove, apiece of tonchWood; a tobacco box, and four pipes. ,The men. were not overwhelmed 'with their calamities, but, initendy set to work to provide .tor their .future, wehtm The wreck of a ship, Which they found on the shore, supplied them with fuel.' and the twelve charges of powder and bill prowl ed them as many reindeer, which were numerous on the island. With nails at tracted from a piece of ship-timber, they made three lances, with which' they kill -1 ed a bear, and with the. strong tendoni of the bear they strung and strengthened a piece of crooked drilt-wood which they converted into a bow. With this and the arrows which they easily made, they ed during their stay of six years on the ii -lant4-0110 reimlerr, 10 beaae r atid- Latsust quantity of foxes . ; and'whets they were at length relieved by a vessel which toughed unexpectedly on the island, they *ere - able to pay their passage home, with 2,0001b5, of deer hit, and many hides of the same an= imals, which they had slain. One of their. number, a very indolent man, who, front the beginning, had eschew ed almost every kind of exertion, died of scurvy, while the other three found health iti ilielr - daq active employment: Tits Two Lsaoens.—While Kossuth is receiving the endiusiamie sympathy, admiration and assistance of the people of England and America, Gorgey, the other great leader of the Hungarian Wur of Intle pundence. drags on a lonely and montonous existence at Klagenferth, in Corinthia, a city much resorted to by pensioned officers or the Austrian army. There he lives with his family, consisting of his. wife, a single child, now but three. months old, a woman servant, and a soldier, who was his attendant through the war. He sees little society, hardly a family of the city have sought his acquaintance. Hs has but one intimate friend and that is an En glishman.
