THE FARHEB'S WIFE.
"Oh ' give me the life of a farmer's wife
' la the fields and wood to bright,
'Mong the singing bird and the lowing herds,
And the clover blossoms white
The note of the morning's heavenward lark
Is the masia sweet to me;
And the dew flowers in the early hours,
The gems I love to see !
Oh! give me the breeie from the waring trees,
The murmur of Summer leaves ;
And the swallow's song as he skims along
Ur twitters beneath the eaves ;
The plowman'! shoot, as he's turning out
His team, at set of sun,
Or his merry "good night" by the fire fly light
When his daily woik is done.
And give me the root and luscious fruit,
That my own hands rear for food ;
And the bread ao light, and the honey white,
And the milk ao pure and good;
For sweet the bread of labor is,
When the heart is strong and true,
And a blessing will oome to hearth and home
If our best we bravely do.
THE TWO CLERKS.
la Market Square, in the pleasant city of
?lerry'Ort, wa a crockery-ware store, over
the door or which was a black sign bearing
in gilt letters, the name of Benjamin Hud
son. For many years this crockery-ware
store had been tkere, with the great picture
hanging in front for a sign ; indeed, .when
Mr. Hudson first opened the store, some
forty years previous,, he was quite a young
man, and the sign over his door was very
bright and handsome; but now his eyes had
grown dim, and the owner was called "Old
Hudson" by all the boys and of the city.
The windows of that .tore had great at
tractions for all the children that passed
that way. There were beautiful vases, and
handsome China mugs with "Ellen," "Fan
ny," "William," and lots of other names
inscribed upon them ; there were also plates
with pictures on them representing Frank
lin's maxims; and funny clocks.shaped like
dogs, that would roll their eyes back and
forth every time they ticked; ; and many
other things curious and ornamental.
Mr. Benjamin Hudson had grown rich in
lis business, for he conducted it all himself,
and took care that nothing should be wasted
or lost by neglect. He had mado mistakes
to be sure, as every man will make some
blunders in a lifetime; but by skillful man
agement he quickly recovered from them.
Sixty-five years had begun to bend over Mr.
Hudson's shoulders, and dim the brightness
of his eyes, and he found business more irk
some than it formerly had been.
"I niu&t have a partner," said he one day
to himself, as he sat before a cheerful fire.
"I uust have some one interested in the
business who is young and active, and will
take the weight from off my shoulders, for I
cannot do as I used to do."
Now, in Mr. Hudson' employ were two
young men Herbert Bond and Charles
Seymore. They had been with him an equal
length of time, and had performed their
duties faithfully and well. Charles did his
work quickly, and had a smart way about
lim that made people, think he was greatly
superior to Herbert, who had a more quiet
demeanor, and accomplished quite as much
without making a great stir about it.
"I must have either Herbert or Charles
for a partner," soliloquised Mr. Hudson ;
'Shich one I cannot decide. They both do
very well in the store, but I ought to know
something of them out of the store, and I
am very sorry to say that that is a point I
liave never paid proper attention to. My
clerks come here in the morning and go
away again at night ; what becomes of them
overnight I know not, and yet I ought to
know. Neither of them have parents in
the city, they live in some of the numerous
boarding houses, nd I hope are steady and
well behaved. I must see them in their
homes, and decide which one I shall have
for my partner."
The next day Mr. Hudson ascertained the
boarding places of his two clerks without
letting them know for what purpose ; and
aftersupper that evening his wife and daugh
ters were somewhat surprised to see him go
to the hall, and put on his coat and hat.
I s"Where are you going, papa?" asked Lilly,
the youngest daughter, who could hardly
remember the evening when her father had
not remained at home.
"I am going to make a call, Lilly, on two
young men of my acquaintance, but I shall
not be gone long," replied Mr. Hudson,and
bidding them good night he went out.
Herbert's boarding house was the nearest
of the two, and there he stopped first. It
was a neat looking house, in a very pleasant
street. Mrs. Buntin, the landlady, opened
the door when Mr. Hudson rang.
"Does a young man named Herbert Bond
board here?"
"He does. Walk in, sir, and I will call
"him," replied the woman.
"I will go to his room, if you will 'show
me where it is," answered Mr. Hudson, "I
presume he is in it."
"I think so ; he is seldom out in the eve
ning. You can step up there if you like;
go np two flights, and the first room on the
right is the one," replied Mrs. Buntin.
Mr. Hudson puffed np the stairs, and
knocked with his cane at the designated
door. It was opened by Herbert, who look
ed very much amazed when he saw his em
ployer, and said:
"Why.Mr. Hudson, is anything the mat
ter at the store? Nothing out of way I hope?"
"No nothing nothing at all," said Mr.
Itudson, walking in, and taking a chair. "I
took a notion to call around and see how you
were this evening."
Bond expressed himself as being very
glad to see his employer, and relieved him
of his hat and cane. Mr. Hudson glanced
about the chamber. It was an attic room,
with two dormer windows; a good fire was
burning in an open grate ; a book-rack, fill
ed with books, adorned one side of the room,
while the centre of the floor was occupied
by a table, on which were writing materials.
."You look very cozy here, Herbert, but
why do you have an attic room? Are there
none that you can have below stairs?"
"O, yes, sir; but this room is a dollar per
week cheaper, and I have all the more mon
ey to send to my father," said Herbert.
"Isn't your father well off?" inquired Mr.
Hudson.
"Not very, sir ; he used to be pretty rich,
but his business was disastrous, and he lost
a great deal of money," said Bond.
"What do you find to do evenings? Does
not the time hang heavy ?"
"Oh, no sir. 1 have books to read, and
letters to write. To-night I am writing
home; they want me to makejthem a visit;
but I write father' that it is a pretty busy
time just now, but when it is over shall
ask you for few days absence," answered
Hertxrt
"You 6hall have it willingly," said Mr.
Hudson ; and then he added, "D'es Charles
ever call upon you
"No sir. I have asked him to do sosev
eral'times, but he has never called."
"Are you contented with this boarding
house?" inquired Mr. Hudson.
"It is a very good boarding-house, and
Mrs. Buntin treats mc very kindly ; but I
often wish that I could live at home with
my father and mother," answered Herbert
"And why can't you?" asked his em
ployer. "It is twenty-five miles sir ; rather far to
travel every day ; and then I cannot afford
the expense," was Herbert's reply.
"What time should you reach the store
in the morning?"
"At half past eight sir."
"And you would have to leave at what
hour in the afternoon?"
"About half past five, sir." '
"Not very bad hours for business. Per
haps it can be arranged so that you can
live at home, Herbert."
"O, I should like it so much.if I could; I
am so homesick here in the city?" was the
clerks reply.
"Well I'll look into the matter, Herbert.
It seems a pity that one who is so fond of
his home can't live there, in these times of
rail-ways and fast traveling, "said Mr. Hud
son ; as he rose to depart. Herbert thank
ed him for his visit, and said that it would
please him to see Mr. Hudson often.
The old gentlemen descended the stairs,
well satisfied with the result of his call, and
said to himself:. "Now for Charles Sey
more. I hope I shall find him as well occu
pied as Herbert Bond."
, On the way to the house, which was three
or four doors distant, Mr. Hudson's atten
tion was attracted to three young men, who
were talking very loudly, and acting in a
rowdy manner, pushing each oiher against
the passers by, and making rude and insul
ting remarks to them. It so happened that
Mr. Hudson wore a white hat. So when
these fellows passed him; they looked be
hind and said: "O, whit a hat!" "Who
stole the donkey!" "The tuan with the
white hat 1" and similar impolite observa
tions. As they walked much taster than he
did, they were soon out of sight.
The boarding-house was reached, the bell
rung, and Mr. Hudson was admitted. The
servant said that Mr. Seymore was in, and
ushered him to his chamber door. Mr.
Hudson knocked and the door was imme
diately flung wide open, and a voice exclaim
ed: "Well old fe'low, got along at last have
you ? Were' all ready for you ; have you
got the "Charles Seymore stopped
here, and his face turned deadly pale at see
ing instead of one of his boon companions,
his venerable employer. It was several sec
onds before he could recover his speech. "I
beg your pardon, Mr. Hudson; you must
excuse me; I expected a friend this eve
ning, and in the dim light of the entry, I
thought vou were he."
Mr. Hudson entered the room and was
somewhat surprised to see I here the identi
cal three young men who had insulted him
in the street; they were smokingcigars,and
had their feet elevated on the bureau, mantle-piece
and bedstead. Mr. Hudson saw at
once that he was a very uu welcome guest.
The room was in confusion, and Seytnore's
actions were painfully awkward. Neverthe
less his employer started a conversation, and
had been there about ten minutes, when a
footstep was heard on the stairs ; and then
the door opened a little way, and a bottle of
champagne came rolling across the floor, fol
lowed immediately by around Dutch cheese,
a bunch of segars, and two rnov bottles.
Seymore looked dreadfully distressed, but
could do nothing. It was a fourth friend
who had been out for refreshments.and took
this facetious mode of introducing them in
to the chamber. Mr. Hudson thought it
time to go ; so he took his leave.and returm
ed home. It is almost needless to say that
Charles Seymore's enjoyment of the eve
ning was decidedly marred by this unexpec
ted visit. He and his Iriends had arranged
for a jolly good time.
Mr. Hudson was not long in making up
his mind na to which one of his clerks would
make the most faithful and efficient partner;)
and in less than a week it was announced in
the papers that Herbert Bond was a mem
ber of the firm of "Benjamin Hudson & Co. "
It was a happy day for Herbert for he could
live at home again amid the scenes of his
childhood: and it was not many years be
fore he managed the whole of the business
himself, and became a wealthy man.
Charles Seymore knew very well the rea
son of 31 r. Hudson's choice, and he never
ceased to regret having formed such unpro
fitable acquaintances as were assembled in
that room on that unlncky evening.
No doubt a lady may be expected to make
a great noise in the world when herdr.ss is
covered all over with bugles.
Which travels at greater speed, heat or
cold ? Heat, because you can catch cold.
After the Funeral.
Of all the returnings, that one "after the
funeral" 13 the saddest. Who will say it is
not so, who has followed a beloved one to
the grave? . While he was sick we went in
and out, anxious, sorrowing, suffering. The
solicitude to relieve, and care for, and com
fort him, engrossed us ; the apprehension
of our own dissolution, in case he should
be removed from us, almost drove us wild.
While he lay dead under the home roof,
there was a hurry and bustle in preparation
for the final rites. Friends are sent for,
neighbors are present, the iuneral arrange
ments are discussed, the mourning procur
ed, the hospitalities of the house provided
for ; all is excitement ; the loss is not yet
perceived in all its greatness.
But "after the funeral," after the bustle
has subsided and things begin to move on
as usual,, then it is we begin to know what
has befallen us. The house seemj still and
sepulchral though in the heart of the town.
The apartments, how deserted! especially
the room where he struggled and surrender
ed in the last conflict. There are his clothes,
book?; hat, and cane, there his ever-vacant
seat at the family board. During his
sickness we had not so much noticed these
things, for we hopedver that he might use
or occupy them. But now the dreadful va
cuity is everywhere.
Oh how dark and cheerless the night
shadows come down after the funeral. No
moon or stars ever shone so dimly ; no
darkness ever seemed so utterly dark. The
tickings of the clock resound like bell
strokes all over the house. No foot-step
now on the stairs or overhead in the sick
chamber ; no nurse and watchers to coino
and say, "he is not so well and ask3 for
you." No, indeed, vou may sleep on now
and take your rest, If you can. Ah, poor
heart! It will be long before the sweet rest
you once knew will revisit your couch, or
slumber will bring again the scenes through
which you just have passed, and you will
start from it but to find them all too real.
God pity the mourner "after the funeral"
"No Secret, Doctor."
"I noticed," said Franklin, "a mechanic,
among a number of others, at work on a
house erecting but a little way from my of
fice, who always appeared to be in a merry
humor ; who had a kind and cheerful smile
for every one he met. Let the day be ev
er so cold, gloomy, or sunless, a happy smile
danced like a sunbeam on his cheerful coun
tenance. .Meeting him one morning, I ask
ed him to tell me the secret of his constant
happy flow of spirits,"' i-eplied, "I have
got e of the beat of wirec, mad when I go
to w!rk she always has a kind word of en
couragement for me ; and when I go liome
she meets me with a smile and a kiss ; and
then tea is sure to be ready ; and she has
done so many little things to please me,that
I cannot find it in my heart to speak an un
kind word to anybody." What influence
then has woman over the heart of man to
soften it, and make it the foundation of
cheerful and pure emotions. ' Speak gently,
then ; a kind greeting, alter the toils of the
day are over, costs nothing, and goes far
towards making home happy and peaceful.
Young wives and girls.can lidates for wives,
should keep this in mind ; as to older wives,
experience may have already taught them
this important lesson. And what we say to
wives, we say also to huibands. A loving
word and a kiss go very far with a woman.
Promptness. Promptness is a cardinal
virtue. Nothing noble in life can bo achiev
ed without it. With it all things are pos
sible. Before it all difficulties vanish, all
obstacles disappear. The prompt man is
the successful. man. He takes time by the
forelock. The opportunity comes and he
seizes it Luck is on his side. The forces
of nature take his part und act with him.
Promptness is not rashness. It never acts
blindly. It does not waste its strength in
random blows. It strikes at the right mo
ment, and in the right place. It is a wide
awake faculty. It sees clearly, and acts a
wise decision. It does not put off till to
morrow what ought to be done to-day.
Secretary Seward has at length found a
foetnan worthy of his steel in the Emperor
of China, who writes a letter to our Gov
ernment covering twenty feet in length by
two feet in width of royal parchment. The
odds appear heavy, but we bet our bottom
dollar on Seward. He will either beat the
Emperor of China's best, or perish.

A young girl, one of the Arab children

parents. On search being made, the bones
were discovered in the cabin.
A lady not long since, visiting a cemetery
with her daughter, observed on one of the
stones a neatly cut figure of"a horse. ' They
examined the inscription closely, but could
find no clue to its appropriateness, when her
little girl remarked, "I presume she died of
