"Good Night" iVtglit, Papa!"—These are the words whose music has not left our ears since the gloaming, and now it is midnight. "Goad night, darling I God bless you ; you will have pleasant dreams, though I toss is fever, haunted by the demons of care that harass mo through the day. Good night !" The clock on the mantle struck twelve, and no sound was beard in the house save the regular breathing of those little lungs in th• next. room, heard through the door ajar. We dropped our pen, folded our arms, and sat gazing on the lazy fire, while tho whole panorama of a life passed before us, with its many "good nights." It is a great thing to be„rich, but it is a rich . thing to have a good memory—provided that memory bears no unpleasant fruit, bitter to the taste ; and nur memory carries us back to many a pleasant scene—to the little arm chair by the fireside; to the trun dle bed at the foot of the bed; to the lawn in front of the house, and the orchard behind it ; to the butter-cups, are! the new clover, and the eli.ckens and the swallows, and the birds' nest, and the strawberries, and the many things that attract the wondering eyes ofehiTlfhood, to say nothing of the mvs terieij•f the starry skies, and the weird gloom or the moaning forest. But, then, there were the "good nights," and the little prayer, and the downy bed, on which slumber fell as lightly as a snow flake, only warmer, arid such dreams as only visit perfect. innocence'. The household " Good night !" Some body, in whose brain its rich music still lingers, has wri+ten this : " Good night I" A loud clear voice from the stairs said that it was Tommy. " Good night'!" murmurs a little some thing from the trundle-bed—a little something that we call Jenny, that fills a large place in the centre of -two pretty little hearts. " Good night 1" lisps a little fellow in a plaid riffled dress, who was named Willie about six years ago. Atint'r "Now I I.ty tne down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep; It I should die before I wake"— and the small bundle in the trundle-bed Las dropped off to sleep, but the broken player may go up sooner than many long petitions that set out a great while before it. And so it was ."gOod night" all around the homestead ; and very sweet music it made, too, in the twilight, and very pleasant melody it makes now, as wo think of it ; for it was not yesterday nor tile day before, but a long time ago —so long that Tommy is Thomas Some body, Esq., and has forgotteß that he ever was a boy, and wore what the bravest and richest of us can never wear but once, if we try—the first pair of boots. And so it was "good right" all around the house; and the children had gone through the r.-ory gate, always left a little ajar for them—through into the land of dreams. And then the lover's "Good night," and the parting kiss! Tney are as prodigal of tho hours as the spendthrift of his coin, and the minutes depart in golden showers, and fall in dying sparks at their feet. Good night."—.N.

Ladies frequently complain that gen tlemen pass them in the street, unno ticed, when in fact the fault arises from their own breach of politeness. It. is their duty to do the amiable first ; for it is a privilege which ladies enjoy of choosing their own associates or se quaintaneksi. No gentlemau likes to risk the " rut " in the street by a lady, through a premature salute. Too many ladies, it would seem, don't know the rule of politeness. Meeting ladies in the street, whom one has casually met in company, they seldom bow unless he bows first ; anti when a gentleman ever departs from the rule of good breeding, except occasionally, by way of experi ment, his acquaintances do not multi ply, bat he stands, probably. charged with rudeness. A lady must be civil to a gentleman in whose company she may casually be plated; but a gentle man is not, upon this, to presume upon an acquaintanceship the first time he afterwards meets her in the street. It' it be her wilt, she gives gamin) token of recognition, when the gentleman may bow; but otherwise be must pass on and consider himself a stranger. No lady need hesitate to bow to a gentle man ; for he will promptly and politely answer, even if he has forgotten his fair saluter. No ono but a brute can do otherwise. Should ho pass on rude ly his character is declared, and there is a cheap riddance. Politeness or good breeding is like law—the "reason of things."—lierrrinbury herald. What it Takes to Feed London. This east metropolis oa4ifian amount of food of which it is curious to realize the daily bringing in. The tahfeau is thous ingeniously drawn by a late wri ter:—'Let us imagine ourselves on the top of a tower a mile high in Hyde Park ; we look off to the north, and we see a drove of cattle seventy-two mike long approaching the city ; we look to the west, and we see a muss of bleating wool twelve miles in length ; to the south, and we see a herd of swine coming toward us whose driver is twelve miles off. After these have ar rived at their journey's end, a cloud ap proaches, which we find to be compos ed of turkeys, geese, chickens, and game of all sorts—and' this extends over fifty-one acres. When we esti mate the amount of fish consumed year ly, we find their numbers to be mihious, amid equal in bulk to the river Thames. And besides these articles of food, if all the hams, bacon, smoked beef, &c.,were placed in a pile, they would form a py ramid whose base would be two hand red feet square, and twelve hundred and ninety-three fcet high." -*NM- Rarre Method of Horse-Taming. The Scientific American says: "This new system of taming is founded on the well known process employed. in sub duing baffalo calves and wild horses taken by the lasso, and consists in sun ply gradually advancing towards the horse to be subdued, until you are able to place your hand on the animal's DOM; and over his eyes, and then to breathe s strongly and gently, as judgment may dictate, into the nostrils. - We have the authority of Catlin, in his 'Letters and Notes on the American Indians,' in thus taming the wild horses of the prairies, and that it is invariably at tended with success." Caitlin says : have often, in concurrence with the known custom of the country, held m hands over the eyes of a buffalo calf,f, rand breathed into his nostrils, af ter which I have, with my travelling companions, rode several miles from our encampment, with ,the little prisoner busily following the heels of nay horse the whole way as closely and affection ately as its instincts would attach it to its darn. This is one of the most extra ordinary things I have witnessed since I came into this wild country; and al thongh I had often board of it, and felt unable exactly to believe it, I am now willing to bear testimony to the - fact, from the numerous instances which I have seen since 1 came into the coun try." iWe noticed, some time ago, a placard suspended in a car on the Geor• gia railroad, in the `mowing words:— " A gentleman will be known in these cars by keeping his feet off the seats, and hYs tobacco in his pockets." A wag took out his pen-knife and cut out the words "off the seats," and the no tice now reads thus : " A gentleman will be known in these cars by keeping his feet and his tobacco in his pockets." serThe following affecting epitaph may be found, says an exchange, upon a tomb-stone in Connecticut: " Here lies cut down like 'Unripe fruit, The wife of Deacon Amos Shute; She died of drinking too much coffee, Anny Dominy eighteen forty." ier A few days since a pious old lady, preparing to go to church, WMR seen to take a considerable quantity of gold from her trunk, wrap it up carefully, and put it in her pocket. She stated that it was her habit—that it kept her mind steady at her devotions, "for where the treasure is there will the heart be also." Bathing Reconmended.—A Western editor, on hearing observed that persons in a drowning condition suddenly re called all the transactions of their past lives, wished that a few of his delinquent subscribers would take to bathing in deep water. iiirA Western editor boasts that his State furnishes a greater _quantity of oats than say other in the Union. Ho forgets to say whether she also furnish es a greater number of auto to sat them. " TRUTIT IS MIGITTX, An WILL PIVEVAIL." A Real Native The ignorance of this country among otherwise well informed English folks was curiously illustrated in the case of General (a good fellow, but bo gus ger.eralo who visited England a few years agi?. Having occasion to pass a few days in a provincial town, which boasted its literary coterie, ho received an invitation throng)) an ac quaintance from Miss Rine Stocking to attends soiree. The general, ot curse, went, and being a fine, Winsome, figrecable fellow, be wasspiite a hon. In the course of the evening, Miss Blase, wRo had managed to secure his undivided attention, 'tapped him play fully with her fan, and said : '"Do you know that you aro a naughty man ?" " How so, madam?' asked tho gen eral. " Why, for cinceiring no; all so; but I shan't tell on you, of course; only every one in the room has not seen as much as I." The general became nervous, and thought of course that, be must have committed some terrible faux pas, but as the lady seemed kind and forgiving, be determined to probe the mutter. " li v dear lady. lam very sorry if I have been guilty of and• dereliction ; do tell me that I may apologize." "Oh !" said kiss Blue, "it's only preten , ling to be an American !" "Pretending to be an American ! But I urn an American, madam." " Yes, perhaps you hve there; butfou are not a native, you kno-c4;.' . 16 On my honor, madam, a real live native of the great State of New York." " That will do for the company to think, general, - said the literary lady, "and of course I shall not undeceive them ; but you must know I had a very distinguir.hed un gentleman, who was a native, to lunch with me this morning, and I was sorry I could not hayArlim to meet you to-night ; but he was not at all like you. His raven hair curled in such beautiful little ringlets all around his head. and his complexion was dark—very dark— a perfect Othel lo of a fellow." " A nigger, by George.' thought the general; and begging our lady not to expose this little ruse, in trying to pass off for so American, ho got into a cor ner and enjoyed his laugh. Wasn't I There Toe? AL a recent election in thin State a lad presented at the polls to claim the benefit of the elective fran rhi,e. Feelinz a deep interest in a favorite candidate, the father, who was evident ly opposed to the boy's prefi , renve, stood at the ballot box, and ehallenvi his right to vote, on the ground of not being of age. The young man declared that be was twenty-two years old, that he knew it, and that he insisted upon his right. The father becoming indignant, and wishing, as the saying is, to '• bluff him off' before the kulges, said : Now, Bob, will you stand np there and contrldict me? Don't I know how o!LI you are? Wasn't I there?" Bob looked his contempt for the oil man's speech, as he hastily replied— Thunderation s'poso you was— wasn't I there too?" This settled tho sire, and in went the scion's vote. • ter S'lmoboily says that there is not probably another word in the English language that can be more "twisted" than the word "write ;" .whilst some body else insists thawhe word "twist" itself can be , "twisted" a "consumed sight" , more than the word "write," or any other word.

A Literal Joke. The Parisians are laughing over the last good story from the German water- , ing-plaees. It appears that the Prin ccssN. who resides in a gum ptubus chat eau, near the Baths of Neuwied, sent a dinner invitation, according to her hos pitable custoin, to Major P., an officer on service at the garrison near by.— The Major chanced e ' to be on duty, and was•obliged to decline • but on sending his oxetcso by hie faithful sergeant, he lithim to bring !iiin his dinner as ho e hack—meaning ofeourso, that he sh °aid go for it to the neighboring res taurant. The iiubaltorn chanced to be very, literal in tits, habits of mind, and ho delivered the tWo errands at once, to the servant at the gate of the chateau. Very much astonished, at first, that her proposed guest should send for his dinner, the Princess soon entered into the joke; and, ordering a lingo tray to be sumptuously Wen from lice kitchen, she despatched it' by the hands of the sergeant and h.et 4 ownsfoot man. Astonnded at the magnificence of the "dinner for one," the Major summoned up ltis messenger an.l soon came to an explanation; but quite too spirituel to lose the enjoyment, of the luxury, he invited in a couple of brother officers and 'they made a capital feast. Only, before sitting down, he gave the ser geant five dollars, and instructed him to g 6 to the confectioner and procure a splendid caAtle of sweetmeats, taking it with his compliments to the Princess. All dutifully done—but her Ilighriess, in consideration of the subaltern so well performing his duty, sent hint out a dollar, fur his perquisite as a messen ger.. 11 1 ,'xcuse me I" said the literal ser geant, as ho looked at the one dollar, and supposed, that, of course, it was to , pay for the confectionary he had bought, Pyiettso , m . e, bat it cost fire. t Four dolhirs more, if you please." The Princess by this time understood the character of the man, and she grave ly sent out the other tour dollars. The Major was still at dinfier with his feasting brother officers. when the faithful sergeant entered with the mili tary'touch of his cap, and laid down the ffre'dollara upon. the table.
