NO BABY IN THE HOUSE
So baby 5n the house. I know
'Tis far too nice and clean ;
No toys by careless finger strewn
Upon the floor are seen,
So fisger marki are on the panel,
No scratch's on the chairs,
'o wooden men set up in rows,
Or marshalled offin pairs ;
No little stockings to be darned
AH ragged at the toes,
5o pile of mending to be done,
Made up of baby-clothes;
So little troubles to be soothed,
No little hands to fold.
So grimy finders to be washed,
So stories to be told ;
So tender kisses to be given.
So nicknames, -Love" and "Mouse,"
So merry frolics after tea
So baby in the house.
TO LET-INQTJIBE WITHUT.
Two young damsels and a spinster aunt
nme in, and after a lengthy inspection of
the premises, came to a state council in the
parlor.
"I like the house very much, said the
piaster aunt solemnly, '"anit with a lew al
terations 1 will engage it for my brother's
farailv."
"Very good, madam," said Nalium, rub
ling his hands, and scenting a speedy ter
iuin.it ion to his trials. "Name 'ciu."
"The door handle must all be guilded,
dJ I should like the house newly papered
in velvet and gold, and repainted, and the
partition between the parlors taken down
and replaced by an arch, and an extension
dining room built on behind, and a bay style
of range in the kitehen and a dumb waiter
put in, and new bronzed chandaiiers through
out, and another furnace in the sub-cellar,
and-"
"Hold on, ma'am just hold on one min
ute." said Nahun,feeblygaspingfor breath.
"Wouldn't you like the old house carried
away, and a new one put in its place? I
think it would be rather less trouble than to
make the trifling alterations you suggest."
"Sir'" said the spinster loftily.
"I don't think we can agree ma'am."
"Very well Very well cotue girls."
With prim dignity the lady marshaled
her two charges out, muttering something
about "the extortionate ideas of landlords
'uow-a-days."
Xahuru wildly rumpling his iron prey
hair with both hands,soliloquized: "Well,
if Job had been alive and had a house to let,
there never would have been any book o!
Job written. There oes that everlasting
bell again ; I'll haul it out by the roots if
ilii.i thing goes on iiiueh longer. I'll tear
down the bell and put the place up at attc
ion."' Another lady.but'quite different from the
".ther a hlender, little, cast down lady with
a head that drooped like a lilly of the val
Iry, and a dress of brown silk that had been
'mended, and darned and turned and retrim
nied. and even Nabum Uriggs, man and
Latehelor as he wa.s could Tsee how very
shabby it was. Yet she was 'pretty, with
big blue eyes and shining brbwn hair and
cheeks tinged with a fair, fleeting color,
bloomed in vivid carmine. And a golden
haired little lassie clung to her dress, as like
Iwr tiny lilly buds to a bloom chime of flow
er bells.
As Nalium Briggs stood looking at her
there came back to him the sunshiny clays
of youth a field of blooming clover crim
soned the June like waves of blood, and a
Hue-eyed girl leaning over the fence, with
h(r bright hair barred with level sunset
gold, and he knew he tras standing face to
face with Barbara Wylie, the girl he had
quarreled with years and years ago, and
whose blue eyes had kept him an old bach
elor all his life long.
"This house is to be let I believe?" she
ked timidly, with a little quiver in her lips.
"I believe it is Barbara Wylie."
She looked up startled with a sudden flush
of recognition. And then Barbara turned
very pale, and began to cry, with the little
golden haired girl clinging to her skirts and
wail:ng
"Mamma mamma what's the matter
mam ma?"
"Nothing,now," said Barbara, resolutely
hnishing away the tears. "If you please
Mr. Briggs, 1 will look at the house. I am
a poor widow now,and very poor, and and
1 think of keeping a boarding house to earn
my daily bread. I hope the rent is not very
high?"
We'll talk about the rent afterward,"
Mid Nahum, fiercely swallowing down a big
lump in his throat that threatened to choke
'iru. "Come here little git 1 and kiss me.
I used to know your mamma when she
wasn't much bigger than you are."
Barbara, with her blue eyes still drooping,
went all over the house without finding a
"Word of fault, and Nahum Brictrs walked at
her side, wondering if it was really fifteen
years since the J une sunshine lay so bright
ly on the clover fields. N
"I thirk the house is beautiful,' said
aeek Barbara, "will you rent it to me, Na
hum? . "Well, yes," said Nahum thoughtfully ;
"I'll let you have my house, if you want it
Barbara."
"With the privilege of keeping a few
boarders?"
"No ma'am!"
Barbara stopped and looked wistfully at him.
"But I don't think you understand how
very poor I am, Mr. Briggs."
"Yes, I do."
"And that I cannot afford to take the
house without the privilege of taking board
ers." "I'll tell you what, Barbara," said Mr.
Briggs, dictatorial, "I'll gie you the
"privilega of keeping iust one boarder, and
nim you will have to keep alLypur life long,
f you once take him."
"I don't think I "quite understand you,
Nahum Briggs," but she blushed very be
comingly, and we are rather inclined to
think she told a naughty little fib.
"What do you say to me for a boarder,
Barbara?" said the old bachelor, taking
both the widows hands in his. "Barbara, we
were young folks once, but there is no rea
son why we should be old fools now. I like
you as well as I ever did, and I'll do my
best to be a good husband to you, and a
good father to j'our little girl, if you'll be my
wife." '
Barbara blushed again, and hesitated, but
Nahum was not to be eluded thus.
"Shall I take down the 'To Let,' Bar
bara?" "Yes," she murmured, almost under her
breath.
So Nahum went deliberately out and cool
ly tore down the bill to the great astonish
ment and disappointment of a party of
rabid house-hunters who were just ascend
ing the steps,
"And when shall we be married, Barba
ra," he demanded.
"In the summer, perhaps," said Mrs.
Barbara, i-liily.
'To-morrow." said Nahum decisively
and to-moirow it was.
"Upon my word. Barbara," said Nalimn,
on the first day of May. as he watched his
wife's blooming face behind the coffee urn,
"you can't think how much jollier it is with
vou for a houskcrpcr, than that hag, Mrs.
Parley."
Barbara only laughed and said "he was a
dear, stood old stupid."
So the probabilities are that neither Mr.
Nahum Bnggs nor his brown stone house
will be in market again as "To Let In
quire Within." '
Ax Eccentric Divine. The Rev. Zeb
Twitchell was the most noted Methodist
preacher in Vermont for shrewd and laughable
sayings. In the pulpit he maintained a suit
able gravity of manner and expression) and
out of the pulpit he overflowed with fun.
Occasionally he wo-ild, if emergency seem
ed to require, sny something queer in a ser
mon for the sake of aroitsing the flagging at
tention of his hearers. Seeing that his au
dience was getting asleep, he paused in his
discourse and discussed 'as follows :
"Brethren, you haven't the least idea of
the sufferings of our missionaries in the new
settlements, on account of the mosquitoes.
The mosquitoes in some of these regions
are enormous. A great many of them
weigh a pound, and they will get on the
logs and bark when the missionaries are go
in tr along."
By this time all ears and eyes were open,
and he proceeded to finish his discourse.
The next day one of his hearers called
him tr account for telling lies in the pulpit.
"There never was a mosquito that weigh
ed a pound," he said.
"But I didn't siy one of them would
weigh a pound. I said a great many, and I
think a million of them would."
"But you said they barked at the mis
sionaries." "No. no, brother, I said they would get
on the logs and bark."

felt as we now feel, and their lives were as
active as our own. They passed hke a va

aud all will have happened. The throbbing
heart will be stifled.and we shall be at rest.
Our funeral shall find its way, and prayers
will be said, and we shall be left alone in si

The Eldest Daughter at Home. To
be able to get dinner, to sweep the room,
to make a garment, to tend a baby, would
add greatly to the list of a young lady's ac
complishments; Where can we behold a
more lovely sight than the eldest daughter
of a famdy,atteuding in the sweet simplicity
of her new womanhood, by the side of her
toiling, careworn mother, to relieve and
aid her? Now sh presides at the table,
now diverts half a score of little folks in the
library. She can assist her younger broth
ers in their sports, or the elder ones in their
studies; read the newspaper to her weary
father, or smooth the aching brow of her tc-

slate as follows :
"Wake letter B at seven ; and if letter B
says, 'let her be,' dont let her be,nor let let
ter B be, because if you let letter B be, let
ter B will be unable to let her house to Mr.
B, who is to be on baud at half-past seven."

Glycerine and its Uses.
This article is among the comparatively
recent discoveries of science. Glycerine, in
a pure state, is a clear, colorless, syrupy flu
id, of a very sweet taste, being the sweet
principle contained in oil and fatty bodies.
Its first introduction into medical use was in
the year 1844, in the London Hospital, for
disea.-es of the skin; it keeps the same
moist and soft, and excludes the air with
out evaporation. The Ilussians apply it to
the face aud ears as a protection against in
tense cold, as it does not congeal at any tem
perature. In ophthalmic surgery, frequent
and extensive use is made of glycerine, also,
in certain conditions of deafness. It may
be used as an adjuvant to the bath, soften
ing the skin pleasantly, and has a high rep
utation as a lotion for the complexion; but
for all these purposes it should be perfectly
pure. It was not known in a pure state
until the discovery of Mr. Tilghman, of
Philadelphia, patented in 1854. There are
two manufacturers who make the best and
purest article one in London, and the oth
er, of equal celeLrity in Philadelphia.
In the arts, the uses of glycerine are man
ifold iu keeping the colors of organic bodies;
in photography, to keep pictures in an un
finished state. At the museum of the Fac
ulty of Medicine of Paris, glycerine has
been recently adopted as a preservative fluid
for flowers and fresh plants. Mr. Tichborne
has thus kept flowers for two yeans and
then made from them a water, with a per
fume equal to that of the flowers of the sea
son. Mustard may be kept for any length
of time by its admixture. Manufacturers
of chewing tobacco find it valuable in main
taining the softness of their products, while
imparting sweetness to the taste. Frequent
attempts have been made to use glycerine
in the manufacture of toilet soaps, but with
out success until quite a recent period, when
a very beautiful article has been produced.
Woman. Mrs. Stevens, the sweet ntory
writer, has somewhere thrown off this excel
lent passage:
"Woman, woman ! truly she is a miracle.
Place her amid flowers, foster her as a tender
plant,and she isa thingot fancy, waywardness
and something of folly annoyed by a dew
drop, fettered by the touch of a butterfly's
wing, ready to faint at the rustle of a bee
tle. The zephyrs are too rough, the show
ers too heavy, and ho ia overpowered, by
the perfume of a rose-bud. But let real
calamity come, rouse her affection, enkindle
the spirit of her heart, and mark her then.
IIow her heart strengthens itself; how
strong is her purpose. Place her in the
heat of battle, give her a child, a bird, any
thing she loves or pities, to protect, and see
her. as in a related instance, raising her
white arms as a shield, and as her own
blood crimsons her upturned forehead,
praying for life to protect the helpless.
Transplant her into the dark of the earth,
awaken her energies to action and her
brcni'n becomes a healing and her presence
a ble!ing ; she disputes inch by inch, the
stride of tin stalking pestilence, when man,
the .'tiong and brave shrinks away pa'.e
and affrighted. Misfortune daunts her not;
she wears away a life of silent endurance, or
goes forward with less timidity than to her
bridal. In prosperity she is a bud full of
imprisoned odors, waiting but for the winds
of adversdty to scatter them abroad pure
g ld, valuable! but untried in the furnace.
In thort, woman is a miracle, a mystery,
OCR Destinv. It cannot be that earth
is man's only abiding place. It cannot be
that our life is a bubble cast up by the ocean
of eternity to float a moment upon its waves
and sink iuto nothingness. ' Else why is it
the high and glorious aspirations, which
leap like angels from out hearts, are forever
wai dering unsatisfied? Why is it that the
rainbow and clou-i come over us with a
beauty that is not of the earth, and then
pass off to muse on their loveliness? Why
is it that the stars which "hold their festi
val around the midnight throne, are het a
bove the grasp of our limited faculties, for
ever mocking us with their unapproachable
glory ? And finally, why is it that bright
forms 01 human beauty are presented to our
view and taken from us ; leaving the thou
sand streams of our affection to flow back
in an Alpine torrent upon our hearts? We
are born for a higher destiny than (hat of
earth. There is a realm where the rainbow
never fades: where the stars will be spread
out before us like the islands that slumber
on the ocean, and where the beautiful be
ings that pass before us like shadows, will
stay forever in our presence.
"If." There is much virtue in "vftBr If.
If a man would do this or that or the oth
er, why then and so on ad infinitum.
The last If we have seen going the rounds
is this: "There are twenty millions of peo
ple in the North. If each one of these
would destroy a five cent note daily, it would
amount to a million dollars in a day towards
the removal of the national debt. If this
were done every day for a year, it would di
minish the debt by three hundred and sixty-five
millions of dollars yearly, which is
more than the whole internal revenue pro
duces. We know a man who thinks it is his
duty to burn a five cent bill every day on
this account. It is less than the tax on a
glass of whisky." Now, If there had been
no debt there would have been no stamps
If there had been no stamps this idiotic
FrOposition would never have been made,
n short, if the moon were made of green
cheese it would be good to eat, you know !
"I am a Great Gun," said a tipsy prin
ter who had been on a spree for a week.
"Yes," said the foreman, "you are a great
gun, and half cocked and you can consider
yourself discharged." "Well, says the
typo, "then I had better gi off."
What kind of a ship has two mates and
no captain? A courtship.
A Little of Everything.
The man who lately received a "lock" of
hair is on the look out for a key for it.
A scribbler says life is too short to drink
poor whiskey or to make love to ugly wo
men. . Before "lore comes in at the door," it
would be well for him to peep thiough the
key-hole. He might see something that
would prevent him from entering.
ft "Paddy, where's the whisky I gave you
to clean the windows with?" "Och, mas
ter, I just drank it; and I just thought if
I breathed on the glass it would be all the
same.
The Ganges carries away from the soil of
India and delivers into the sea twice as
much solid substance weekly as is contained
in the Great Pyramid of Egypt. The Ira
waddy sweeps off from Birmah sixty two
cubic feet of earth in every second of time.
It is said thatthe b illion now in the treas
ury of Bussia, at Moscow, greatly exceeds
the sum held by the bank of England. The
estimated value of gems and jewels, is al
most fabulous, before which the Crown jew
els and regalia of England sink iuto compar
ative insignificance.
Of the Polish exiles who took up arms in
Siberia, and attempted to fight their way
to China and Japan, 26 were sentenced to
be shot; 174 to have a hundred lashes, and
if they survived to be sent to the mines;
to be put to hard labor; 'J33 to be kept un
der serveilanee. A number of others suc
ceeded in getting away.

An Indian burying ground has been dis
covered near Easton. A chief evidently
was buried under an old apple tree. About
his remains were found eighty beads of
large size, ninety rings, and about a peck
of small beads, besides a medal dated 1824,
his pipe in good order, made of clay, one
pair of scissors, one knife, a number of ar
row heads, &o.

A Turkish gambler won, in Paris, in one
ot the fashionable gambling houses, nearly
1,000,000 francs. The Emoeror was in
formed of it on the next morning. He
hates all kinds of cards and still more hazar
dous games. In the Tuilleries cards are
strictly prohibited. He at once ordered La
valette and Houseman to look after these
fashionable resorts, and suppress by all
means the games ot Lanzknecht and Uar-
cabat.
At a Denver dicner party the other day.
where Salt Lake peaches and grapes formed
prominent articles ot the dessert, the con
versation naturally turned upon the fruits
of that region. Various opinions were ex-
freswid, and finally one to the effect that
Srieham Young was the bet t fruit gardener
in the United Mates. A lady responded :
"lie certainly ought to be, since, from all
accounts, he has the most extensive nursery
in the world.
Miss Jarret, of New Jersey, has a perse
veringruti of ill luck. In 1S63 tdie disloca

December, 1805, hhe was run over by a
sleigh and badly injured. A fortnight ago
her pocket was picked of $150 on a Brook
lyn ferryboat. Going back to hunt the
money, a crowd or skylarking boys accident
ally knocked her down, dislocating her hip
and breaking a lib.
Two American citizens of African de
f-ccnt had adiificulty the other day in llich
mond. One struck the other with a shin
gle and alleged iu defense, that the plaintiff
put on airs because he belonged to the "old
issue" that is, that he received his free
dom before the emancipation proclamation
went into effect. This, the "new issue"
couldn't stand, and struck him. We sup
pose they nrast be called the "gold" and
1 'greenback" niggers to distinguish them.
Where shall we not find some idea of aris
tocracy. Ptothschild's Faris abode is an immense
building, seven stories high, and would
cover about one block as we call our divi
sions at home. You are somewhat aston
ished to see that the first, or ground floor,
is used for numberless little shops, cigars,
pictures, meat-stalls, vegetables, tin-shops,
toys, and a livery stable. On the second
floor are numerous office", engravers, prin
ters, workers in artificial Sewers, &c Then
all above this you would find was a perfect
palace, large halls, parlors, galleries of art,
and libraries, and all the private splendor
and luxury of this money-king.
A gentleman who recently put up at a log
