A \VILI) IRISH STORY
It was the''l)egiuTlink of
,December. 184—
( said Fred Carew; ) we were sitting down to
dinner after a capitol day's cook-shooting—
besides myself therenvere Lord Clontart, W
him, and Kate, my wilt , - when we wore dis
turbed by a perfect hail of knocks at the hall
&ow% -old Dan Tucker or the bpeetre.lioree
mon never clamored more loudly for admit
tance.
Feltz, Mohtt's old Austrian servant, 'wont
down to see what was up, and, on opening the
door. wits instantly borne down by the tu
multuous rush of Michael Eel y, gentlemidt,
ligont to half a dozen &bites, and attorney at
law. In the twolast capacities he had given,
it seems, great umbrage to the neighboring
peasmtry, and they had caught him at night
as he returned Imam, intending to put him to
death with that ingenuity of tome for which
the line warm-hearted fellows are justly cele-•
bra t cd,
They did not wish to hurry over the enter
tainment, so he was confined in au upper .
chamber, while they called their friends and
neighbors to
_rejoice with them, ettimising
meantime jovial below.
The' Nict ho contrived to Jet himself down
front the window. and ran for his life to the
nearest house, which, ufiltiticily happened to

This was made out from a string of

The boy to whom he spoke, heldhis glass
with II pleasant smile. ,The coming .

not' altered a ,ti nt upon his fresh beardless
cheeks.—rosy and clear as a page's in ono of

WEBSTEH MATCHED ur A WOMAN..—In the

for the applicant. Mrs,, Greenough, wife of

tall, straight, queenly looking woman,'with it
keen black eye—a woman of great self-pos-
SeSEdOll and decision of character;• was called
to the stand as a witness on the opposite side
from Mr. Web-ter. Webster,' at a glance,
had the sagacity t foresee that her testimony,
if it contained anything of importance, would
have great weight with the Court and jury..
Ile therefore, resolved. it' possible, to break

ungstion put to her, I believe," Webster
roared out, •4 We don't 'want to hear what you

Mrs. Greenough`replied That is just what
I 'was about to-say sir," and went on with her
testimony. And notwithstanding his repeated
etitiris to disconcert her, she pursued the even
tenor of her way, until Webster becoming
quitefearful of the result; arose apparently
in great agitation, and drawing out his largo
thrust his thumb and linger to the
very bottom. and carrying the deep pinch "
te - bOth nostrils. drew it up with a gusto; and
next extracting from his pocket a rely large

which rang distinct and loud through the
crowded hall. Webster— , .. Mrs. Greenough,

Mrs. Oreenough— ,, She took natl . !" The
roar of the Court House was such that 'the

Mrs. Greenough had vomited her chair to an

upon the inglorious history of the, man who

one night, and there beheld a young Man pay

sofa, and seemingly on very good terms with
her. At my entrance they appeared. n little
confused, and the deepest, deadliest jealousy
arose in my heart. • I looked at that young
man with a look that would have shivered a
glass bottle at forty rods. , It did trot seem to
have much effect on bint,•however. ,Then
devised several mild methods of punishing
him, such as twisting his ears off and making
hint swallow them ; pulling his toes off with a
pair of pincers; smashing him into infinite
simal fragments, with a big rock, and feeding
ducks with his bleeding remains.' I. did not
have a favorable, opportunity of putting any
of these delicate intentions into Operation, or
it assuredly would not have gone well with
that ridiculous young man. 1 say Athenians,
for so he was. A perfect fop, rigged out in
broadcloth and silk --rings oa his finee•s and
bieast pins and studs, and such 1h neck-lie,

becomes of great moment, and wears sure the

This much in regard to-the physical means
for preservation. There.are moral' means no
less important. Every woman should be mar
vied to an excellent man 'Marriage, it in true
brings care and ,wear, but it is the ring that
in worn that keeps bright; and the watch that
lies shill and unwound that gets out of order.

The sweet sympathies evoked in relation to
the family, the pew energies developed by new
responsibslities, the new compe r osation for all
outlays of strength, brings about a delightful
play of the heart and intellect which, in their -
reaction upop the body, produces an effect. .
that is nothing less than preserviition. Then.
theVe is a higher moral power than this —one
which we speak of soberly and honestly: No
one is completely armed against the encroach
ing-ills,of life, who'has in the heart no place
for religion • The calmness. the patience and '
the joy and hope.that are in pbssession of that
woman whose heart is right iu its highest re-

every personal power and charm that she pos
sesses. .
There! you have the receipt. Some of it
is in sportive form, but it is not the less sober
truth. It has within it the cure for ninny
diseases—the preventive fur more. It' might
be mad longer; but when we see its proscrip.

LADIES AND IlonsE-Wontr. —A friend of ours
1 remarkable for strong, good sense, married a
very accomplished and fashionable'young la
dy, attracted more by her beauty 'and accom
plishments thim anytidng else. In this, it
must be owned that his strong. good sense did
not seem very apperept,,,,,llis wife, however,
proved to be a very excellent companion and
was deeply attached to hhit, though she still
loved company;-and-spent more timeabroad_
than.he exactly approved. But, as his income:
was good, and his house furnished with a good
supply of domestics, he was not aware of any
abridgment of comfort on this net:emit, and Ito,
therefore made no objections to it. • '
Ono day. some few failaillS after his mar.
liege, our friend, on coming home' to dinner, —
saw no appearance of his usual meal, but
found his wife In great trouble indeed.
"What's the matter V he asked.
.. " Nancy wont oil at ten o'clock this tnorn
'4ng," replied .his Wife. "and the chamber-maid •
knew no more about cooking a dinner than the
unin•in the moon.
"Couldn't she have done it underyour•dis
reetion ?" inquired her husband, very, .000ly,
-under'my direction ? should like to see
, n dinner cooked under my .direction."
"Why so ? asked the husband in surprise,
i'"you certainly do not mean to say that you
cannot cook a dinner "
certainly de': then." replied his wife,
"How should 1 k n ow anything about cooking."
The husband woo kinent, but a look of aston
ishinctit perplexed and worrieti-his-wiftn—
“Vou look very much surprised." she said,'
after a moment or two lied eloped. • , . -•
"And so I rim,' he answered, "as much
surprised as should be in finding the captain
of one of my Alps unacquainted with nevi.
gation. Don't you k now how to cook, and the
Mistress of a family ? Jane, if there is an'ook
ing school anywhere in the city, go to it, and
complete your education, for it is deficient in
a very impprtant, particular." •
