TULE FIRST QUARREL. IMNEEEMIE! " They never loved as Ilion and I, %VI., vindicate the morel— That alight which sweetens love can lie In tine hive's itritiiisi quarrel." "It is certainly very disagreeable to love -another so much." This original remark was uttered as a stage soliloquy, the little dressing or sitting room having no other occupant than the very pretty woman who laid down her habit with a yawn, alatrt, top a tidy crotchet, lazily netting a few sti hes. To one who had never suffered froni this excess of idolatry it might be con sidered rather a singular complaint ; but the caseatdod thus: Flora, Hastings . had been a wife the very long time of three months and a half. Her wardrobe and house being in com ',plat, order, her husband very Much nt leisure business and with ample means, they had found nothing better to do"than the modern andnery selfish occupation of " living for each other." That is, they- had declined nil Party invitations after the first gloss of the bridal dress was dimmed, and, when seen at mil in public, were always together, she lean ihg upon his nrm.with.an enviable air ,of self: satisfaction, looking up into his foes with a most adoring glance whenever he chanced to speak, and he in turn bending .down to catch her most trivial remark with a devotion' that would have become a ,:tusli engaged lover. IS at li : concert, he fanned her, he supported her opera glass, he carried her hood and shawl. But even music, in which they both professed tudien.mateurs,dseemed to have lost its accus tamed charm, and they were certain to leave at the end of part first, no metier what were the attractions of the bill to less absorbed spectators. •-• In sDort, everybody said—and everybody, when turned gossip, is not over civil or com plimentary - oftentimes=that " they "were ma king fools of themselves, and it could not last frever." Sonic people are so envious of any thing in which they do not share! They did not live in the city in the summer season, but at Mr. Hastings's little country house-large enough,,however,-to-be-thorough— ly comfortable, and well fitted, hod .with a head servant who never bothered her mistress by asking instructions, which were sure to be comprehended in one senteii'ce, "You know best, Margaret." So they lived on idle, fond, nnd,.ns they imagined, a perfectly happy life, with tloWors which the gardener cultivated, little music, and the new books of the season. They did not invite any company to Brookside; they did not wish any. Mr. Hastings rode to town between nine and ten, returning by three, and from that time they were constantly together, reading, walking, or, driving in the low carriage, ono of their lute acquisitions. At first, they thought it delightful to sit to gether on the'veranda, My, Hastings enjoying his after dinner cigar and the newspaper, Flora with the last new novel and an exquisite silver paper cutter, that had been ono of the engagement pres'ents. -.But they did not get on very well, there was so much talking to do between times, and at last they conceived the happy idea of rending aloud. Four whole days this had been considered the height of enjoyment. They, scarcely tasted the dessert, so anxious were they to resume the thread of Vie story. Then the sowing chair' and the work basks; table,toolc their place outside the casement window, and .I,'lora, with the prettiest and. Most becoming air of industry, listened to Mr. Hastings, who 'sat with his feet sup ported at a considerable angle on the trellis of the porch, his chair artistically balanced. 'and hie head adorned by a broad leaved straw hat ; 'not because ho needed it, but Flora con sideredit particularly becoming •to his dark, Spanish, melo-dramotio style of face and fig -uro.

And so the poor book fell to Um. floor; and then it was too dark to see. A walk was proposed through the shaded lanes; and, when they returned, Flora wie too weary to listen. T'ho love quarrel in the 'tale was left without denouement. Our actual lovers were so happy that they could afkird to linger over it, , So it happened that the young Wife was-re duced to the occupations, before described, this wawa summer afternoon. :Her watch, ag dn and again consulted;wits:held for at least three quarters of an hour in ;her hand, the moments creeping by, and still Alfred had ', not come.

" What could keep Alfred so long.?" They might have read several chafitershofore I dinner, and found out how the__quarrel was made up.

But, as she ,heard his re treatinglootsteps, a new resolve flashed tiro' her mind. ,Shn would undress and pretend-to be asleep when' he came ; that would punish him properly for.attempthig to resent anything she might say. .I.t was scarcely an instant's work ; the pile of snowy skirts, the light lawn dress, were crushed into a heedless mass of drapery, the little slippers Song carelessly away; and, before Alfred scald have 'trenched the gate, the white robed figure was resting as quiet and calm as if never disturbed by an angry or fretful emotion.

VOLUME Lilt NO 40 Brromour yvtimr. DROWNING Ono of the most sirigultir features in Pyseho logy is the feet which is perfectly notorious; that the faculty of memory acquires an actin ity and tenacity in the ease of persons about being.drowned, which it never exhibits under ordinary circumstances. An accident occurred some 'weeks ago, at New York, which throw-a number of persons into the North Iliver. Among others was Mr. and his sister, the / find, named, editor of a weekly paper in Philadelphia. They were both finally saved. Mr. describes the sensation while under water, and in a drowning, condition," to ho pleasant and peculiar. It seemed to' him that every event of his life crowded in his mind at, once. lii3 was sensible of what was occurring, and expected to drown, but seemed only to regret; that such an interesting item as his sensation would make, should bo lost. In noticing his statement in an exchange, I am reminded of an incident which, dissimilar as it is to the ono just narrated, in its general features, had the eamo remarkable awakening of the memory, which such cases sometimes exhibit. I can vouch for the truth of what follows, as well as testify to vivid reflections in my own ease, when exposed to the hazards of drowning, reproduced in a few minutes i ihe entire events of all my pest Some Years ago A held a bond of B for sev eral hundred dollars, having some time to run. At its maturity ho found that ho had put it away so carefully that ho was unable to find it. , Every search was fruitless. Ile only knew that it had not been paid or traded away. In this dilemma he called on B.;-relating the circumstances of its disappearance, and pro posed giving him a-receipt as an offset to the bond, or rather nn indemnifying bond against its colleetion if ever found. • To his great surprise, B not only refused to accept the terms of meeting the difficulty, but pesitively denied owing him anything, and strongly intimated the presence of a fraudulent design on the part of A. Without legal proof, and therefore without redress, he. had to on: duro both the loss of the money, and the sus picion of a dishonest intention in urging the claim. ,Several years passed away without any change in the nature of the case, or ita facts; As above, given, when one afternoon,/ while bathing in Tames River, A, either froia inability to swim, or cramp; or some oilier cause, woe discovered to' be drowning. He had sunk and risen several times, and wee floating away under the water, when he was •seized. and drawn to the ,shore. The' usual remedies were appltetlpto resuscitate him, and although,thdro vversejgrg of life, there were' no • sigps of consciousness. lie watt.' taken home in a state of complete ahausticni, and remained so for saMe There is no doubt that this remarkable quickening of memory results from the pro cess which in such, case is going on—the ex tinguielmient of life. his somewhat analogous to the breaking in of the light of another world, which in so many well attested cases of death-bed scones, enabling the departing spirit, oven before it has left its clay tenement, to behold and exult in the glories of a future state. Is it not a fair inference, that when the soul shakos off the clogs and incumbrances of the body, it will possess capacities for en joyment of which on earth it we's unsuscopti ble. AB regards the memory, it will be observed by most persons, how readily in life we forget that which wo do not desire to remember, and in this way we get rid of much unhappineis. Can wo do this after death ? This is an im portant practical question.--Cises Advertiser THE WAY OP THE WORLD "lie's dead!"
