The Difference between Heart and Plack.
Thomas Thompson, a doer of deeds of blood
a butcher was recently summoned before
the Recorder at New Orleans, at the instance
of his U tter half, w ho, if Ac is to be believed,
is no better than she should be. Sir. Thomp
son was a fat man, with a round shiny face,
redolent of rare steaks and bottled porter.
Mrs. T. was lean and attenuated literally a
spare rift.
'Well, Mrs. Thompson,' said the Recorder,
what is the complaint which you have to pre
fer against your husband V
Here the butcher rubbed his hand over his
glossy forehead and looked inquiringly at the
Recorder, and vacantly at his wife, as much
as to say 'now for it.'
'Why, your Honor,' said Mrs Thompson,
and she threw back her green veil and fanned
herself with her . pocket handkerchief as she
spoke 'Why, your Ilonor, his conduct is
such that to a sensitive being of my kind it is
the blight and mildew of my domestic happi
ness the frost that withers the Cower of my
felicity.'
Here Mr. Thompson gave expression to a
note of admiration by a silent whistle, adding
'Now she is in for it! now she is coming the
sentiment.'
The Recorder, addressing Mrs. Thompson,
With what particular act or instance of ill
treatment do you charge him ?'
Mrs. Tompson Why, your Honor, his un
kindness is rather of a negative than of an af
firmative character. He has no soul no sen
timent. He can appriciate neither the sub
lime nor the beautiful. I am, myself, a crea
ture of sentiment of heart I am all heart.
What, sir, but this etherial property of our
nature, elevates us above more ignoble beings,
and places ns in communion with all that is
bright and beautiful with the finest creation
of the poets fancy, as well as with nature's
sublimest productions O, sir'
Recorder Madam, you must permit me to
interrupt you. While I greatly admire your
eloquent pathos, I do not see what possible
connection it has with any charge you may
have to prefer against your husband.
Here the bucher shook his head approving
ly, as much as to say, 'I'll be d d if I do
cither.' .
The Recorder proceeded: 'Thus far, Madam,
yon have dealt in generalities what charge
have you to make V -
Mrs. Thompson I charge him with being
cold and callous with being imbued with no
symphathy with, in short, having no heart.
I could love any thing having a heart ; but
Thompson has got no heart, and therefore
fails to inspire me with that feeling.
Recorder .t. Thompson may not be bless
ed with some of the finer mental attributes,
but for this he is not amenable to justice, nor
punishable at law; and so far as your allega
tions yet go. I have seen nothing that he has
done, of which lean take cognizance. Are
you in the habit, Mr. Thompson, of maltrea
ting you wife ?
Mr. Thompson Lor' bless you, sir, no! My
first wife used to say as how I was the kindes
test man she ever knowed my first wife used.
She was an atfectionate creatur was my first
wife ; but I'm blamed if I can get the hang of
this 'ere 'oman at all. I think there's some
thing wrong in her att ic and here Mr. Thom
son pantomimically pointed the fore-finger of
his right hand to his forehead. I had not
been married to her more than a week, when
the said to me one morning 'Thompson,'
says she, 'you haint got no heart.' That's a
fact, said I, I sold tho only one I had before I
left the market. To-morrow, though, I'll kill
a sheep, when I'll have another. She then
told mc as how I was a wnlgar creatur', and
she has been telling me the same thing every
day since. She is all the time a readin' nov
els and romances, and the like. The night
before last she fell asleep readin' one of these
here books, all about sentiment, and let the
candle burn the muskitter bar. She is all the
time a tellin' me I haint got no heart ; but I
know better; and my first wife used to tell me
that I was the best kind of a 'usband and so
I would be, if Mrs. Thompson would act like a
sensible butcher's wife, and leave off her sen
timental didoes. ;
The Recorder said he had listened with
great patience to the statements of both Mrs.
and Xr. Thompson, and in neither did ho see
anything that called for interference on his
part. He thought that if Mrs. Thompson
dealt a little more in senses and a little less in
sentiment, it would tend to an improvement
in matters domestic.
'Yes,' said Mr. Thompson, 'and if she does,
though she may continue to think I haint got
no heart, she'll find me a fellow of good pluck.'
Tho case was then dismissed, and Mrs.
Thompson left the office, avowing that Thomp
son had no heart, f hat the Recorder had no
heart, and that this is a heartless world.
Learned Elephant. 'That's a werry know
ing hanimal of your's," said a cockney gen
tleman to the keeper of an elephant.
"Very," was the cool rejoinder.
"He performs strange tricks and hantics,
does he?" inquired the cockney, eying the.
animal through the glass.
"Surprising," retorted the keeper, -'we've
learnt him to put money in that box you see
away up there. Try him with a dollar."
The cockney handed the elephant a dollar,
and sure enough he took it in his trunk, and
placed it in a box high out of reach.
"Well, that's werry hextraordinary has
tonishin', truly ! Now let's sec him take it
out and hand it back."
"We never learnt him to do that," returned
the keeper with a roguish leer, and then turn
ed to stir up the monkeys and punch the hye

"A Fire in the Rear!" The Jlmesburg
Villager tells a good story of an exceedingly
anxious individual who was "most crazy" to
obtain some account of the Know Nothings.
The anxious individual was"told by a wag one
dav, that if he would come out to
that
night at ten o'clock and advance fourteen pa
ces into the barn, he would there find a party
to initiate him in duo form into the mysteri
ous order. The. proposition '-took," and he
accordingly went to the place at the time
appointed; he had scarcely entered, however,
when he was saluted with a most uncermoni
ous "grip" iii the rear, which caused him to
vocate the premises in quick time, leaving a
part of his "hinder" garments in the teeth of
a careful watch-dog, whoso owner had given
him the euphoneous title of "Know Nothing."
Youxg America The following is from the
advanced sheets of the forthconiming Know
Nothing Almanac:
Irtish Mother: Arrah, Jonny and where have
yees bin so long?
Native Son : Why me and the rest of the
boys has been licking an Irishman!
Mother : Wait, yc spalpeen, till ycr daddy
gits home, you'll be after catching it.
Son : Oh, he be blowcd. That's the man
we've licKed!
(Exit mother, with upraised eyes and a half
smothered "Och hone!" while sonny stalks
off whistling Hail Columbia.)
K!7""A nobleman in Devonshire, who after
having lain in state for some time, was brought
to life by his insolent butler, who, before
locking up at night, having carried up a bot
tle of brandy, to give the women who watch
ed the corpse a glass a piece, took off the
napkin covering his master's face, and with
taunting speech, "Come, old gentleman, I will
not pass you by; you shall have one glass, al
though you arc dead, of what you loved dear
ly all your life time," he opened his master's
mouth, and poured a glass-full down his
throat, which instantly set him a cough

lived several vcars.
'Well, my son what is the strongest thing

to a ragged little urchin who had just entered

The lad thought a moment, then scratching
his bump communicativeness through a hole
in his hat, answered:
"I reckon raarm knows, she's tarnel strong
herself she can lick dad any time; and she
said that the butter I got here t'other day was
the strongest thing she ever seed yet, for that
it was so strong she couldn't hold it after she

Waiting for Offers.
When ladies are waiting for offers from chaps,

GRAHAM'S MAGAZINE NEW VOL
UME. 1854. In announcing his readiness to
receive orders for the New Volume, the editor does
not know he has any very brilliant ideas to hold
out in large capitals to dazzle people's eyes
"Graham" will bo pretty much what it has been
the last volume, with some improvements which
experience suggests. Ko number will contain less
than 100 pages of matter, and the readers of 'Gra
ham" may rely with great confidence upon this
the volume shall contain
OVER TWELVE HUNDRED PAGES I
Of the very best reading matter that capital can
command from ojiginal sources, or taste select from
the vast mass of available material.
The aim of tho editor will be to produce a pub
lication which sholl bo valuable in matter, and
choice in taste and style; and he flatters himself,
from tho known talents of his contributors, that h
will be able to present as many good original ar
ticles to his readers as any publicatjon of the day.
He shall not, however, hesitate to publish, from
time to time, articles from English authors, and
translations from the best German and French
writers, provided the pieces have never beforo ap
peared in print in this country. Essays on impor
tant Political Subjects will likewise be inserted,
and criticisms on the Literature of America and
the movements of tho Age. The Levicw Depart
ment, in which a large and liberal spirit of crit
icism will alwaysbe maintained, will be extended.
For the defenceof American Ditcrature the editor
will always bo ready ; the inaintainanco of a cor
rect tone in the Magazine, ho will, if possible, be
still more watchful.
EACH NUMBER WILL COXTAIX AX ENGRAVING FROM A
FINE STEEL TLATE IN ADDITION TO THE CHOICE
DESIGNS AND ENGRAVINGS OF DEVERCX,
who will supply illustrations for the text in tho
body of the book. The aim of the editor will not
be so much to increase the number of his engrav
ings, as to secure for thoso he publishes the ut
most finish the artist can give them ; for common
wood-cuts are so easily multiplied, that the most
indifferent publication may outrank in dreary dis
play the choicest periodical.
The Editor docs not feci, that with his own rea
ders, he can increase his claims to respect by in
sisting on any very great superiority of Graham'
over several similar publications, but thinks he
may safely confide in their friendship for the
Magazine, and in its post management for its pre
sent list, and such increase as naturally grows out
of an extended circulation in a country where
readers aro multiplying so rapidly.
Of the January number the first adition will be
30,000 copies, and the editor trusts his old friends
will be so prompt in renewing old clubs, and ex
tending the list among new ones, that the first
edition shall be but half os what the year will ul
timately establish, as the permanent circulation of
'Graham."

those who read the serial so promptly issued every
week by Dickens, with thoughtful appreciation,
know how to prize it. "Household Words" is a
modern journal for tho people, devoted to common

in genius, in manner, and wonderfully fertile in
subject. The pieces are the right length; they
exhibit wonderful variety and are attuned to a
harmonious key and remarkable unity of effect.

IMPORTANT REDUCTION IN TOST
X AGE. We congratulate our subscribers and
tho reading public generally, on the ohcapue
with which they can now receive our reprinta by
mail. The postage hitherto though gradually
reduced since 1844 has always operated as a dis
couragement to their circulation in places inac
cessible by expresses or other modes of regular
private conveyance. Hence, as yet they hare ob
tained but a comparative meagre mail circulation"
We hope now that the postage u merely nomitml
anew impetus will be given to these valuable'
works, and that no Post Office within tho United
States will remain unvisited by at least one copy
of the four Reviews and Blackwoods Magazine
The
Postage on Blackwood and the four Reviews
