'Good morning, friend Iloehandlo.'

you; walk into" the house, .Mrs. Hochandle will
be most happy to see a city friend; that is if
you will not quiz our style of living. Wepinin
country folks are not quite up to fashion; and
it is well wo,nre not, for we could not; afford it
if wo were. .Ah! Yardstick, you are a lucky

was saying, here wo are. .You aro a rich Mer

not short, I.should lilac to—the fact'is, I am.

Thank you, Ilochandle; hero is' our note;

PLIA'SORES OF GARDENING:
Vtro- :noir not One fancy, one: recreation, so
7malloyed in all Its points, its theinildititiOn of
a garden. It sodas to afford, in common with
all the rest of the fancies, the full enjoyment
common to all, and to have a large balance in
its favor. The misei over his treatinie gloats
not more completely Upon his money - than the
gardener does upon his Amite, flowers atid veg- , 1
stables. Thelicture collector is not prouder
of his paintioge than the 'florist is of his tulips;
nor does the owner of the ancient gems of art
point them' out with more satisfaction than the
gardener shoirs his best named floyers. If the
'owner of a gallery of pictures ff - ahisltubens,
his Leonardo da Vinci, his Paul Potter; so has'
the owner of a bed of tulips. The florist cora
bines'in his single garden as many fauSies as
woidd ctocupi half the 'Population, and delights
in all of them: What if the concholegist boasts
bf his collection of shells! lie can only look
at them in ono state; they are there always
no change ; . only a- few 'people can, see
them at once, and not oneinia thousand, .tho'
they may be pleased pith -- thi beauty, ean'.es
timate the rarity of them. The antiquarian
pores over his coins in, solitude; he boasts,
perhaps, that this crown, this guinea, or' the
otlief medal, are the only known ones in exis
tence; but can ho increase them? Can •ho-o
bligea single friend with an offset'? Will it
.eveibe better! but, if another be found 'like
it, Wait not be worse? ;That hits ho rare
that the florist may not in his own estimation
equal? Thb tulip grower would say, "what
coin have-you got equal': to my fine Louis XVI 1"
And noliossesser of the only coin, of a,kind,,
prizes himself more upon his treasure than a
florist doss in twenty differentl-families.- The
lover of the ,gartlen is a general collector, and
a creator of now beauties into th'e bargain;
lie sows his seed with pleasure, he watches the
progresti — of his — Plantirwith interest, lie looks
for their opening flowers or swelling fruits'
with.anxiety; and if his hopes are crowned
by one 'solitary plant, fruit, or flower 'better
thenThispreselicifficelclie is repaid for all his
trouble, labor, and watchfulness; if not, ho
begins again, nothing daunted, saying to him
self "bad luck now, better another time."• Is
Aiere any fruit eats so sweet as that from our
own - garden? - hoes hot every day deverope

visitor in. the form of a flowei,or Truit, or

there is one point-of which we must not lose

BOY LOVEI
1 - 715ne of thelueereet,and funniest things, to
thinit.Of in 4fterlifo,.is,"Boy-love.".No soon
er doe's a boy acquire a tolerable stature than he
begins to imaginc,hixaself a man; and to 'ape
mannish ways. lie casts sidelong glances at
()Very tall girl he happens to_tneet; becomes a
regular attendant at church or meeting; sports
a eatie:carries'his . head erect,_and strata-alit_L
tle in his walk. Presently, and how very
soon; he falls in -love; yes, falls is the proper
.Word; because it best indicates his happy, de . -
lirious, self-a-basement.. Ho lives now, in S,
fidry region, somoishere collateral to the world,
and yet, somehow, blended -inextricably with
it: . .He perfumes his hair with fragrant oils,
‘seatters essences over his handkerchief, and
desperately sluires . and anoints f3r a beard.—
, He quotes - poetry in whioh "love," and "dovey"
and "heart' " and "dart, " peculiarly predom
inatel mnd as ho plunges deeper into the. de
liaibns himself filled
the divine afflatus, and suddenly breaks- out
into the scarlet rash—of rhyme. He feeds
upon the - look of, - his beloved; is raised to the -
-seventh heaven if' she speaks a pleasant word;
is betrayed into the most astonishing,ccstacies
by a smile; and itrplungoill into the gloomiest
regions of misanthropy by a frown.
He'bolieves himself the moat devoted lover
in the world. There never was Such another.
There'never will be. He is the ono great i
dolater! Ho is the very typo ,of magnnnimi 7
ty and self-abnegation. -Wealth! ho despises
..the grovelling thought. Poverty, with the a
dorable beloved, he rapturously apostrophises
as the first of all . earthlyblessings ; and " Love
in a Cottage, with water and, a crust; " is his
beau ideal paradise of dainty delights. . .
He declares to •hiniself, with 'the - most sol
emn emphasis, that he would go throu i gh fire
and water; undertake a pilgrimage to Chitla.
or -- liamschatka rswim -- storm-tossed -oceans-,
scale impassable, mountains; and face legions
of bayonets, but forsone , sweet smile from her

worn in the fingers—next his heart. He
sighs,liko a locomotive letting off steam. He
scrawls her dear name over quires of foolscap

down the hard soak and disiolving it r in Warm

should not be put up' until perfectly dry. The
Seams and holes should then be Mu:minted with
corrosive sehlimate dissolved in alcohol or
