over the' " Wants," in the evening paper. It
pleased me.
I was rending it for the twentieth time, when'
a servant kaoCked at my parlor door and an
pounced- my slstpr•in•law, Mrs. Eliza Bishop,
and .her daughter Eliza. Mrs. Bishop was
the widow of my eldest brother, and her at

She followed her name into the room, lead•

of the three. She was a handsome woman, of

"Not kind at all, troubling you about my

be a trouble."
Avery just remark, considering that ler
voluntary service amounted, beside frequent
visits, to a pair of slippers, with a pink-eyed
.pimay eaten each too, and a smoking-cap, with
the device of a green-eyed poodle, eouchant.
I hastened to place before her theimper in
which I had marked the advertisement whioh

"There, Eliza, there is what I have been

So that was it. lie had failed, and died,
and left her all those children to support. I
looked into the
.fire again. The boats had
drifted Tat apart; and were sailing down a
flame-colored river—'
"Ile on the one stde—she en the ether."
I mused on, half sorrowfully; until at length-
I said, speaking unoonaciously,.out loud—
• "Perhaps I could have stood the children if
it wern't for thinking that she had loved 'l36'me
body else.' She'd be looking beck, all the
time, and comparing me with No. 1."

•'"Nothing. I was not speaking to you. In

She looked dolin again, and I watched bar
instead of the fire. She was pretty—prettier
thin I had given her credit for at first. I
thought, too, she might be younger than thir
ty,•as I surveyed her now. There was a del
icate peach-blossom color on her cheek, an
innocent, almost girlish expression on het-face.
Well, cheek and expression were •nothing to
me. • 1 got up and went disooneolay to bed..
The next day my sister.in-law cause to see
me. As usual, she had plenty of suggestions
to make to Mra. Smith, which that lady re
ceived in silence,
.but with a peculiar twinkle
in 'her ayes. At length Mrs. Bishop followed
me into the library.
" Well, Sandie," she. remarked, seating her
self,. " since you' do seem 'disposed to fulfil,
my prediction and mairy your housekeeper,
I suppose I may speak of her freely. I have

The too frequent habit of extending mere
formal invitations is well rebuked in the fol
lowing anecdote of M. Viviery the eminent
physician, celebrated for his ready ,wit, his
skill on the cornet, and hiscloieintimaey with
Rossini. He had'hardly arrived in Paris on
his.returtt from his summer travels when he
was invited to dine with Mons. B—, a musi
cal amateur and rich capitalist. A north° re
'bast the master and , mistress of the house said
to their agreeable guest:
" We hope that we shall have you often to
dine with us; your place will always be ready."
" Always V, said Yivier; "that is, in the
fashionable sense of the word."
"By no mime We are not persons of,
such hollow politeness. You know how mnoh4
we love artists, and..you in particular. Our
home is yours. Come and dine with uswhee
ever you please. We should be glad ifitwere
every day." •
"In earnest!"
" Certainly ; we should be delighted "
Ah, well, since you aro so cordial, I
•
do my beet to be agreeable." '
"We shall dependupon seeing you."
The next day Vivier presented himself. -
"You see," said he, "that I have takenyour
invitation literally. I have come to dine."
"Ah, it la very charming," replied his heats,
to whom his arrival appeared very piquant
and quite original. The dinner was very gay,
and the artist, on taking leave, received many
compliments. The next day as they were
about to sit down to, the table, Vivier again
appeared. vT
"Here I am, exact,. punctual, and faithful
to my promise. But it te singular," he con
tinned, fixing a-penetrating and quilxioal look

the couple replied, with a forced emile, ,

MRS. OffISSEIELAI ON DANOING.
f. Mrs. Sy/nabelm has a chapter on dancing.
land is most decidedly in favor of that kind
of amusement. Hear how she talks:
; "It is worthy of notice that those churches
and people 'who'most strenuously oppose danc
ing, have always encouraged and practiced it
under other names. Like tho temperance men
who would not drink •cider, but had no objec
, flan to a glass of apple juice, our - opponents
of dancing havelheir children taught the art
under the name of "Calisthenics,"' and prac
tice it when it is Called- "Play." For it' is a
remarkable fact, that these old time favorites of
religious communities, "Dear Sister Fhcebe,"
"Ring around Rosy," "All a marching to
Quebec," "The White Cookade," "Copenha
gen," Bte.,&c.; are, every one of them,
Cotillions and Contra. Dances performed to
vocal and instrumental music. •
Thti difference between the religions and the
profane dance ia, that, in the former, every
• man in the room is compelled, on pain of a
breach pf etiquette, to kiss every woman in
the room; and vice versa, that it is quite in.
• order for married women to sit down on the
knees of young gentlemen, put, their.'arms
around their necks, bring two pairs of lips to.-
gother with a smack, and 'do any amount of
hugging.. While in a profane dance, even
those of moat doubtful propriety,•the greatest
•
familiarity, between persons of opposite sexes,
is a gentleman placing one hand ou a lady's
VriliA, while she reata one hand on hiselmul- I
der, - and hada the disengaged hand in the
- other. The churches, therefore, who set up
rules against dancing, are fairly andequarely
• committed to the doctrine that promiscuous
dancing is all right, and pious and innocent,
provided it is accompanied by • promiectmus
with a suitable allowance of bugging
and general rough and tumble.
While, without those refining and elevating
additions, it is evil on evil, and that contin
ually. — There is no escaping this conclusion,
-for the anti-dancing churches and christians
are too openly committed in favor of these
vulgar plays for an intelligent man to deny,
that either they have acted blindly, or that
the kissing and hugging eanotifies the dam"-
•
Now, since all the experience of the past
proveethat•people will dance, even grave.and
reverend dencons, we are in favor oflthe danc
ing without the etceteras. • But apart from all
•comporisens,'we retard 'dancing as aimeitiv,e6
good, as something which requires no apology,
but is inherently right hi' itself; all efficient
means of perfecting, refining, and cultivating
the crowding work of God's creation; a means
appointed and directly approved by the Crea

SIR WALTER SCOTT'S ORAVE.—A correspon

of hie visit to Abbotsford. and the tomb of

"To day, sitting at the window of the little
inn at Melrbse,, we milt en hour or two before'

light, was all that romance and poetry have
pictured -it, and Sir Walter's grave; ax we
stood .leaning over his tomb, was cheered by
a robin.redbreaet ,singing loud and clear in a
neighboring tree. Before visiting Dryburg
we spent several hours at Abbotsford, now
seemingly a deserted residence, for Mr. Hope
Scott and his little daughter are in London,
and the place is left with servants.. Fording
the Tweed just after a smart shower, which
made every bush brighten, and -every blade of
grass greener, we walked through the avenue
leading to the house without meeting a soul.
Arrived at the porter's lodge, no tinging of
bolls, or pounding on doors, could induce a
human being to appear, so we opened the lawn
gate and rambled about the grounds, not even
, a dog or cat coming out to see who were in
truding upon the premise!. We thought our
visit would .be finiebed, and we should get
away without meeting any Qua from,the lAtse;
but a tidy little Scow* darde came at last,
wiping the corners of her month with her
apron, evidently Miring been disturbed at her
lunch. Notwithstanding she had been obliged
to have her ale and sandwich, her temper was
by no means .rufiled, and in five minutes she
became so autobiographical that we had all
the items of her bustling existence apreid out
like a' pooket map befdeife:
"Sir Walter's study looked the same as
when I saw it
.ten years ago, but the library
t seemed less oared foi::—Weivent into the room
where the-minstrel died; andlite same sounds
from the river that fell on his dying ears came
up through the open Windows of the apart
ment.—The present occupant,• who married a
daughter of Lockhart, ia,as Roman Catholio,
and we were told byoneef his neighbor! that
he was 'a glide, kind mon.' . Coming awry
from the house we fell in with an old friend
of Tom Purdie, who bad many good words to
say , for that worthy person., He bad also
known Sir Walter, but he considered him too
great a scholar for so humble a body as him- .
self to \ be on very familiar .terms with. Ab
botsford is - a sad place *now, and one, cannot
go to it, remembering how cheerful 'it was
once, wititout a sigh that all have passed away
