The gray indications of 447,e surround my n-rinkled brow and decrepit form. At tiniest am peevish and fretibl, be wailing my lot, and wishing that my days were ended ; then a sWeet reminiscence of the past sweeps over me, and inspires me With reverence. - Though I am an old maid, there are things connected with my life which afford me pleasure to contemplate. • At -the age of eighteen I was left an or phan. My mother died when I was quite young; my poor father lingered e'few short years, then, like the fragile flower; withered and riled. Falling heir to my flitherho usense fortune, I was flattered, everted, and admired, by people of .the world—not for myself alone, but for my wealth. Well,l knew that if I were destitute of that which hazy power to attract thOusands; my friends would be few. I soon became restless, weary, and-tired of those empty flatteries. At length the tortured brain bit upon a wild scheme, which I determined to carry out, spite the expectations of my maid. Anastase, my waiting maid, had relatives residing in a prOportionately "large village, some six miles from W—, and there I de-. termined to execute my project. It was a radiantly beautithl morning in the month of May. The sweet carol of birds, and the.de , licions perfume of the flowers, scented to add a baba to my aching heart, and revive my drooping spirit. I was not a philanthropist; but on that beautiful morning I felt that there were others beside myself, and that the Ores \t: had not designed - this terrestial universe f me alone to enjoy. All I now desired was a true and trusting friend, one whom I could love, and whose faithfulness the advcr sides of life could not shake. • My maidnutl I stood upon the portico, lit erally surrounded by trunks, boxes and bun dles, impatiently awaiting the arrival of the rustic, lumbering stage coach. I was com pletely metamorphosed, having substituted the plain, comely traveling dress for mrusu ally rich appareL No jewelry adorned my person; it was my object to appear :Wane in ordinary circumstances. At an abrupt carte in the road a cloud vf dust revealed to my anxious, eyes the wished- for Conveyaneb. With the _aid of the porter and coachman, our trunks, .Ste., were deposited on the top ; and, with a brief fitrewell to those at the house, we were .rolling toward our new . home. _ This caprice of mine was, indeed, remark ably novel.

I left the spot the affianced bride of Eugene St. Clair. 1.-was happy and sorrowful alternately, happy in ,the belief that Eugene loved .me, yet apprehensive of the future.. We were to be married in three weeks. I did not know his reason for a hasty, quiet marriage. I did not inquire. Whatever Eugene desired, I willingly - assented to. I had implicit &Win his love. " Atina.l am compelled to leave you tbr short time. I have business—business of vital importance—which I mustimmediately trans act; but I shall not be long absent." I felt piqued at his not telliag . me the na ture of is business; but with a single smile I bade him God-speed. Ile lifted my hand . to his lips, and passionately imprinted kisses upon it. As.his form passed front view, there came a. thought to my frivolous mind- 7 -a thought which was destined to Wast my bright hopes and visions. I asked myself: Why not start for home, and write to. Eugene, asking him to join me. It would be such a sur prise--=such a Pleasant surprise—to-see hinti enter my mansion--stare in beirilderment, and gaze upon his wealthy affianced with wonder. I thought %would be delightful. Accordingly I had my trunks pa e cked, so as to be able In start on the morrow. " Mrs. Williams. this evening will terminate my stay under your hospitable roof; an oe: currencx which I regret most exceedingly. I shall always remember the happy days I have spent here, and with teats recall those bright faces at the old stone farm-house." We were sitting on the-porch ; enjoying the refreshing breeze froth the lake. I'noticed the crest fallen look on their focus a_4 I spoke of departing. I, too, experienced a poignant pang of regret at ltnving such land and sympathizing' friends— like' kind old - lady turne&her beaming face full upon me, and in a voice husky with emotion, said: . - " Anna, I take as much interest in your welfare as I would in my child''. What I tell you is for your own goixl—you must take no offense. We are about to part-- . --your path leads one way—mine another ; perhaps we shall never meet again, in this world. If we should not, remember what I tell you. You are about to marry a man of the world, who, I have no doubt, loves you; but whose repu tation was so very bad, he was at one time reckless, dissipated, and is even now reported to have been a—a gatabler.'' "I learned that from his own lips," I re plied. rather haughtily. • " Yes, rily . eliild; but you do not know the danger into which you are precipitating your,. self.

But that evening, as I bade her "good night," she fondly drew me-to her, and fer vently pronounced a blessing. The morning dawned radiant - and beauti ful. Mrs. Williams greeted me with a merry " good ,morning," inquired after my health, and invited me to partake of a frugal meal she had prepared for me. Then came the final leave-taking, and in a short time I was' on ray homeward journey. I found everything as I had lett it at home. i The servants were somewhat surprised at ' my unlooked for arrivaL . I lett knastase to make, all explanations, and sought my room. I immediately changed my dusty garments for more suitable apparel,- and proceeded to write tr . :, my future husband. In it I stated ,that I wished to see him concerning material matters---gave him- the necessary directions —wrote his address on the envelope, And placed the note in my writing desk, intend ing to send it on the morrow. It had timan become cloudy, and toward evening the rain descended in torrents. The hoarse' roaring of the thunder, and the dull pattering of the rain ; did not sound discordant to my, ear. I - liked it. It agreed-With my turbalent state of mind. I had just finished a book in which I was deeply interested. The deck- tolled the hour of eleven.

Every woman in the Commonwealth of Missouri would let go everything and run for State Milner. And insttad of ventilating each other's political antecedents, as men do, they -would go straight after each other's 'private moral character. (I know them—they are all like my wife.) Before the canvass was two days old it would be an established prop osition, that every - woman in the State was "no better than she ought to be." Only think how it would lacerate me to have an opposition candidate say that about my wife know that my wife isn't any better than she ought to be, but still I woufd not like these things aired in a political contest. • Think of the torch light processions that would distress-our eyes, Think of the curi ous legends on the transparencies: "Robbins forever!

There is nothing rernargable in that, for most all young men of the above age do the same thing. But what I tun going to tell you is how'my courtship terminated. At a party I saw Ella - Janes, who was one of the Sweet est girls in Ticktowu, and let me tell you, she looked sweet in her white muslin ball dress, with her hair falling loosely over her shoulders. . I got an introduction, • danced with her once, twice, thrice, and was just the happiest man in all Ticktown. Well, at last the.party broke up; but I had an invitation to call on Miss Jones. Thai was all I wanted, and I didn't sleep much before Sun day evening—for that was the time fixed to eta I called, saw Miss Ella to church, saw her home, and when we parted I had a press ing invitation to call again, and I did not for get it either. At the end of a month I was completely gone. At last I resolved to "pop the question," and fixed on my next visit for the - time, studied "Courtship Made Easy" thoroughly, and concluded I was ready for the task. The time arrived. here I was, sitting by the side of my beloved, with my arm around her waist. I took herAind in mine, and screwed up my courage to say : "Rear Ella, do you love me?" She made no an swer, but her eyes were cast down arid I hoped. .Yes, I was certain that she loved me. I put both my arms around her neck, and pressed one, two, three kisses on hes rosy lips. She did not resist, but raised her head and .said: " You're as bad as Sam Simmons"" I took my hat —havn't been back since. flow SIMON SUGGS WAS TREATED UT TAE Wn'ow FLAP.. -" Now, - Solomon," said 'Simon to Soloinon Smith, hi,s intimate friend, I will tell you how the lovely Julia treated me, if you will faithfully promise not to tell any one alive. You promise, do you ? Well, I had been courting Julia assiduously for a year or more past, and never could bring matters to a close, so I determined to pluck up courage .and have my fate decided at once. I therefore decked myself in my best bib and tucker; bad my hair cut, my beard and mustaches trimmed, and called on my dear Julia one morning in liky, "and after much cooing, I was very desirous of billing, bui my heart failed me to make the attempt. I placed my hand On her shoulder, and said : 'Widow, this is the softest place I ever put my hand in the course of my Ufa: ''lndeed, Mr. Suggs, saktshe, 'I will put it in a softer 'place,', and—Solomon, now you promise you -won't tell - anybody?

A Philadelphia gentleman of festive tastes, who takes a "fair shake" at all the obtainable pleasures of the town, last week assisted at a heavy dinner, took much portable, and did not leave for home until ever-so-many o'clock. On reach ing his door steps and fishing up his night key, lie became convinced that he was essen- tially convirialiied and not - precisely in the condition which a good husband should be to meet a good wife. Cautiously entering the hall he stopped, listened a moment, heard no noise, and congratulated himself that the family were . asleep. Quietly he • took off overcoat, drew off bocits, turned off hall light, .1 'slowly ascended stairs to family bed-room, hesitated at door, believed he was reasonably right, stealthily entered, found gas turned low, wife apparently asleep, thought she teas asleep, at down, listened agaimno stir; be- • gun to undress ; got coat, vest, pants, drawers, stockings, all safely off; was journeying care fully toward couch, when wife of his bosom quietly asked " Coining to bed, dear ?"

It is the first dear thought stamped upon our infant hearts, when yet soft and capable Of receiving the most profound im pressions, and all after feelings are : more or less light in comparison. Our passions and our willfulness may lead us far from the ob• ject of filial love, we may' become wild, headstrong and angry at her counsels or op position; but when death has stilled her monitory voice and nothing but calm mem ory remains to recapitulate her virtues and good deeds, affection, like a flower beaten to the ground by a rude storm, raises •up her head and smiles amidst our tears. Around that idea, we have,said, the mind clings with fond affection ; dad even when the earlier period of our loss f orces memory to be silent, fancy takes the place of remembrance, and twines the image of our departed parent with a garland of graces, and beauties, • and virtues, which we doubt not that .she' pos sessed. • • TUE ultimate release of Jeff.

The Attorney-General is said to take this . view of the case; mid Judge Chase, ho holds, is responsible for the - result, as. the Judge, -during the war, decided that the rebels were belligerents, in order to justify the disposal of the blockade-runners in prize courts; and belligerents cannot be tried for treason. To reverse the decision wbuld be to declare all the sales of prize vessels unlawfuL It will be remembered' thatihe South claimed such vessels should be th subject of adjudication. in Admiralty Courts ; but to overcome this objection, Judge Chase declared that they were belligerents.
