II I I hi hi XT' r N7 MISCELLANEOUS from the Pictorial Drawing Itoom Companion- riiflses of married Life. BY MRS. E. WELLMOXT. Said Mrs. Squib, "when I was first married, my husband use to come to me before going out in the morning and kind Iv inquire, 'what relishing tit bit I would have for dinner?' 'But dear, you will not be at home, I can pick up any thing,' was the reply." Perhaps ten minutes after a nice mut ton chop or a tender steak, with a box of fruit, would be sent in to me, which Mr. Squib purchased on his way. As to work, he was terribly afraid I should overdo; and if I wanted exercise, he used to say the open air was better lor females than household duties. Let Bridget do the work, and cook and dust, and clear awa'. Be sure, Tetty, and put on a veil if you go out do keep your complexion deli cate. This held out for six months after marriage. 7 ico years after marriage. "Wife, income we must economize; I lind my will barely meet our expenses. We ought to lay up something against a rainy day. You need not dispense with Bridget, but perhaps she can help do the plain sewing. These little expenses are what whet off a poor man's purse. Perhaps it would do you no harm to make my shirts and over see the kitchen a little more I find there is a strange deficit in our pork barrel; the sugar don't hold out as well as com mon, perhaps Bridget needs looking af ter. I would walk out less, and do a little more at home." Four years after marriage. "Telly, I don't see .why we cannot keep a few genteel boarders. We might make some thing, and it would fill up little gaps in your time to better advantage. A woman never appears Abetter .than. in. performing her duty. Jenny can go to school, and -little Tett will soon follow you about the house. Children must learn to take care of themselves. Look at Bruce's he has eight, and they only keep one girl, and six boarders! You are as smart as Bruce's wife, I know. I shall expect you to buy the food, as I am never to be troubled with picking up little luxuries. Exercise about house, is as good again as spinning street yarn." Six years after marriage. "Tett, there is no use in keeping help. They are only a bother their board and wages amount to more than all my profits. I do without a book-keeper, why should you be waited on by a domestic? I should think you supposed there was no end to my income. The children are dressed equal to a millionaire's so much work in pantalets and collars, and embroidery on frocks! I do think you might be more profitably employed. The reason we made no more by 'genteel boarders' was because you had not a proper supervision. You kept them too well, and never made up second dishes. Wife, you ought to know how to proceed rather belter in look ing after my interest." Ten years after marriage. "Well, Squib, 1 think I've been imposed on long enough. You are forever blaming me as if I were the cause of all your troubles. I'll leave you, and see how you will get along then. Haven't I taken charge of this whole house, let the five children go to school, done all the sewing and mend ing, and sat up till midnight to accomplish it. And how much have you helped me? Who has kept you in white pants and pocket handkerchiefs, and waxed bosoms and dickeys? Well, my work is pretty much over. 'The last pound broke the camel's back.' Mr. Squib you have been acting the gentleman all this time out at club parties, and Odd Fellows' meetings aod engine gatherings, while I have kept away even Irom my church meetings, be cause I had nobody to go with me. Squib, when a woman's temper is thoroughly up you cannot put her down." Squib ran down stairs and out at the front door. - Fifteen years after marriage. "Go ing to bed with your boots on! Brought home drunk! If it ain't enough to provoke a saint you carousing all day, while I -and the children are living on dry mincc iiieat, and doing all we can for a living. You arc a miserable tool, and the quicker we separate the better; I am ashamed of yotf eyes all bunged out your head, bloa ted, sottish, inattentive to business, cross to the children, never seen out with your wife, a constant source of mortification. Tetty, dear, reach me Chilty on divorces number 03, on the lower shelf." Mrs. Squib reads- "Well, yes, I have provoca tion enough- I'll see Squire Blood to morrow. " Again Squib retires. Sixteen years ajter marriage. ."'Pet ty, it seems as if we were enjoying anoth er honey-moon since I took the pledge. Only having the resolution to be a man iias made me one. I am about going into business again with my old partner. You know the rise on our land if I sell it now and put it in the farm, I can go equal shares with them. Besides, Jimmy is a well-educated boy for a clerk, and what can I do better than put him in our counting-room? Tetty, you have acted a no ble part;l always feel a remorse for my past conduct, and desire to compensate you for your trials. The day you took the book so in earnest, and read what constituted a divorce, I was self-condemned; and that day I took the pledge to ab stain from all intoxicating drinks, I shall keep my pledge. Tetty, wife, must be sent to some good school; Solomon shall go to college, he is so bookish; and that little witch of a Nancy shall have a piano, she is so fond of music. Come, wife, let us celebrate to-morrow, it is just one year since I reformed. lu-enty years after marriage. Ex tract from Tetty's letter. "My life, aunt, has 1ecn extremely varied. I was mar ried under as flattering prospects as most girls; for a time I was petted like an in fant. But I can review the past and see wherein 1 erred, as well as my husband. I was not a good housekeeper. I hated the kitchen, and trusted to an Irish girl, who has since been sentenced to the House of Correction for 'petty larcenies.' I have no doubt the first discouragement to Mr. Squ ib arose from my mismanage ment. After Jimmy was born, I took boarders, but I took no note of expenses. I often paid for varieties at the market, in three days, all they paid for board in a week; consequently we went so rapidly behind hand that we dismissed them. When Mr. Squib first went cut in even ings for pleasure, I went to bed, and asked no questions. I felt sullen, and acted so; this gradually wore upon him, and from an occasional visit to the gambling houses, he went every night. 1 became uneasy and quernlous so did he. 1 never sought the things that made for peace, neither did he. O, a woman's pover is fearful! She can frequently plunge a man in ruin or save him. At .length, -as my children, grew older my sympathies on their behalf pwere awakened. I resolved to make one more desperate endeavor to live, and that should be alone with my children. That resolution brought ray erring husband back, and while I feel partially to blame for many errors, we, I trust. have -both penitently confessed and-amended of them, and a happier family does not live. A man has just waited on Mr. Squib to get him to deliver a temperance lecture" Warren -Hastings and Ccorgc Washington. "Look here upon this picture, and on liis. The counterfeit prescntnient of two brothers." -.. llamltt. . In glancing, the other day, over a short biographical sketch of the Governor Gen eral of India, I noticed that the year of his birth was the same as that of Washim-Jon.' This simple coincidence struck me forci bly, but when' in continuation so many acciden;al. points of similarity in their history presented themselves, (now that the attention was turned ifi that direction,) while tire contrast in every thing else was so startling and so strorvgly marked, my mind was deeply impressed by these strange coincidents and strange contrasts. Both, as wai said, were born in thc same year. Both were leff early orphans. Botti deprived. of .thc advantages of a thorough education for ho college crown ed either with its honors, r.cr academy welcomed either to its secluded bowers. Yet both manifested early the lavish gifts of nature, and the promptings of an hon orable and self-relying ambition. The1 same winter in which one was pene trating the unknown wilds of the Virginian forest, commencing his career as a Sur veyor; thc other, too, yet but a boy, in quest of fortune, left his native land, and went forth to the Indies upon the slender hopes and slender stinend of a clerkshin. Each advanced by the force of his own energy and ability. Both, while yet In the first flush of manhood, were turned by public calamities from the walks of private life into soldiers. While one was retrieving the rashness of a veteran Gene ral, saving his country from the Indians of the Western wilds, and vindicating British honor on the field of defeat, at the very same time the other, serving under the same government, was rescuing the banner of St. George from the grasp of Linajah Howlah, and turning back the Indians of the east upon the plains of Palassery and by the banks of the Hoogley. Again both returned to civil life. The one took his seal in thc Virginia House of Burgesses, and the other in the board of the council of Madras. The sphere of each was rap idly enlarging. The eyes of the civilized world were fixed upon thc British colonics in America, and thc British possessions in India. On these grand theatres were enact ing respectively the deep dramas of the deep rise and downfall of nations. Who shall be the great tragedians ? Within a year, in which Warren Hastings became Governor General of India, George. Wash ington took command of the American army, the forlorn hope of the freedom of the new world. Here the coincidents close, and the contrasts commence. Each lias now reached the pinnacle of power. Eacli possesses unbounded opportunities for good or evil. How will these oppor tunities be used or abused. Have we any thing in their past life by which to judge ? A fact in reference to each will show that with them, as is mostly the case, the mind took, even in childhood, that bent which would influence it through life. The one employed his leisure moments, when a school boy, in composing and col lating a code of rules to govern his action, even in copying deeds, draughts, &c I order to perfect himself in the details of readv neace- 1 II i i business, anu was an ever ready neace i maker among his comrades the other j reclining on the banks on the Iris, in sight j of the alienated possessions of his ances I tors, fed his j-oung fancy in gorgeous day- ; dreams ot wealth and power, wild projects ot selfish ambition and personal aggran disement. He would recover the estates that had belonged to his fathers, he too i would hn Hasting of TWIpsI! II faithfully now wis each about to fulfil the . destiny 'shadowed forth nmnl.oiillu Kv j these simple incidents. The one, regard-' j less of personal interest, renounces the ' government he had served, when it became ! subversive of the liberty of his country - ' men the other in pursuit of his own i f j j emoluments ovprsinns the tvnnm.-. pv-pn tnc uijiiuci uuuuuiiutu iitriine ui ilie same government. To the one was entrusted j the destiny of a young and feeble nation, struggling with life. He felt upon hirn not only the weight of the present, buUhe responsibility of the fearful future. But he shrank from r.n rlntv ho dun. ned no sacrifice. When the risino- hopes I lcd out to nlm 1,r 1 ranklm and n,s we of his country seemed about to go dowj ! n anothcr occasion, he visited the open in darkness and in blood, he breathed intof"1? of Congrcss antl beheld Washington, desponding -patriotism the breath of IS d-'"ct recollection of whose person he He became the Moses of our Israel.

Power absolute and indisputable was with in his grasp. But he hearkened not to tht stifled vvhispers of an unhallowed ambi tion. He ruled the people to save them. And when he had established their freedom he turned aside from proffered power; from an imperial crown and kindly dia- monu, to tne obscurity of private life "How Mian we rank thee unon p-lorv'a nam . inou more than soldier and in it less tlwiii saje All thou hast hcen reded less fame on thee.

For eight years he is awaiting the verdict of an in censed people, and at last is acquitted only because piiy had taken thc place of indig nation. Broken in spirit, broken in fortune, and an outcast from humanity, he hid his head amid the shadows of Daylcsford to die. Thus both of these men, who filled, during the latter part of, the last ccnturv, probably a larger space in the eye of the world than any others, ended their career. The one iri ignomy, the other in honor; the one in solitary shame, the other in un tarnished glory. ' The name . of Hastings will "live in the pantheon of history." On the shores of the Ganges, says a traveler, the Hindoo- mother hushes her child by the tune of Warren Hastings. The name of Washington, too, is taught by maternal love to lisping infancy.

But a few weeks since, we heard him speak of walking the streets of uiuuujiuia iciduc, x nu pom- carver and gilder. Even as a boy, he , , ., ,,. , manifested a decided literary talent, and we have heard that his first clTort was a Fourth of July Oration, delivered in his thirteenth year. He soon gave up his trade entirely and devoted himself to lit erary and political pursuits. As an editor, Maj.

Subjoined is thc latest whereabouts of Kossuth and news of the his compan- ions m captivity: Advices from Constantinople, of the 17th tilt., announces that thc question of the Hungarian refugees atKutayeh has been definitely arranged. The Emperor of Austria has granted a full and entire amnesty to those refugees, on condition that they shall declare that they will not make any attempt to re-enter Hungary. Eight of them, however, are excepted from this amnesty, and are to remain atKutay eh until further orders. Amongst those excepted are Kossuth and Count Bathy ! II V - 1 he Porte is to send a commissary town accompanied by M. Eldor, to mat an attache of the Austrian Legation, to identify those amnestied, and to receive their declaration. Those persons arc then to proceed to Mondania, where they will find a Turkish ship to convey them where they please. The Turkish govern ment will defray- their expenses by sea and land. Gen. "Dembinski i? expected daily at Constantinople where he is per mitted to reside, under thc protection of the French ambassador. A letter from Kossuth has been recei ved in Loudon relative to the Hungarians who. have arrived at Liverpool, which shows that when those men left Shnrala they did so with the intention of going to America. In this letter Kossuth express es a wish that Mr. Pulasky may exert himself with a view of those people being sent to America, and to prevent them living on alms, which would be degrading to themselves and to the cause in which they had been engaged. He concludes by say ing that if England has taken any interest in the heroic sacrifice of ihewfjnen, he hopes and trusts so much niay-'be done, that those men could be sent to a country where they would have full scope for their energies, and' where they could live by honest labor. It would appear that the Hungarians arc willing to go to America, and only re quire a few days to recruit themselves. Major Wallinszky, the leader of the Poles is also willing to go, but since their arri val his countrymen have to a great degrce refused to submit to his authority.

The New Hampshire Patriot speaks of the state of parties in the Legislature of New Hampshire in the followiutr terms. j There having been no election for Gover- nor by the people the Legislature select from the two lushest candidates, nm' hence there will be thc Democratic and Federal candidate before the houses; At wood, thc Abolition candidate, being out of the ring: The list as given foots un as follows; Democrats, 138; federalists and abolition ists, 130; "Atwood Democrats" 13. Reck oning the Clarksville member, wn shall have 139. It will thus be seen that the men classed as "Atwood Democrats" will control the House. With them, will have a majority of 22; while if they go against us, mere will be a majority of 1 against ; the Democrats. If only three of them go with us, we shall have a majority in the House; and we have no doubt that most of them will be found acting steadily and i uniformly with their party and in support of their principles. j Thc vacancies in the Senate are filled, I before the election of Governor, by joint j ballot of the two Houses. Wc have cho : sen 7 Senators, which added to our 139 I representatives will give us 1113 votes in I joint ballot, without reckoning any At I wood men in our favor; while reckoning all of them against us, with the two feder al Senators elected, there will be 1 15 against us in joint ballot, before the va cancies in the Senate are filled, giving us a majority of one over everything! This is the worst possible aspect of the case. But we know that all the "Atwood Demo crats" will not go against us; we believe a majority of them will go with us. Washington's Birlh-Day in Horac. The Italian correspondent of the New York Tribune writing at Rome on the 23d of last month, tells the following about the i celebration ot Y aslimgton s birth-day, lhe j j evening bciorc: j "At about 7 o'clock over a hundred la dies and gentlemen, from all parts of our - " " "I"'-1 combined in thc most recherche style of Italian cookery lhe various delicacies of j the season. Thc table was decorated with a profusion of beautiful flowers, which, in this mild climate, are perennial, and at one end of lhe room the stars and stripes waved over a bust of Washington, while at the other they shaded a spirited painting of the American Eagle. The great hall in which thc dinner was served is a noble apartment, the ceiling painted by Pietro de Costona and richly decorated. An appropriate blessing was asked by Rev. Mr. Hastings of thc Amer ican Chapel, who, with Archbishop Hughes was among the guests. Thc American Artists of Rome, who were then toasted, replied through Mr. Freeman, one of their nnmbcr,and severs! other sentiments complimentary to them were offered, in thc hopc of drawing out some of thc others, but they seemed to be less ready with words than with the pen cil and the chisel. Two beautiful Odes written for thc occasion by Mrs. Ann S . Stephens, who was among the invited guests, were sung one by F. C. Tucker, Esq., of your city, and the other by Mr. Kemble of Rome. It added not a little to thc hilarity of thc occasion to hear our fa miliar American airs well performed by an Italian band. "Hail Columbia," Yankee Doodle," "Carry me back to Old Virginia," &c, were the order of the evening. At eleven o'clock the company retired to an adjoining saloon, and after one or two n:erry dances, dispersed to their several homes, so tli3t "twenty-four o'clock" should not briiiT d.ie Sabbath upon even such innocent and palriolic fes tivities as the celebration of Washington's Birthday. Kissixo DOXE BY i;iXK. Some rr..:r lady, whom practice has doubtless' r:ai perfect, lays down a rule for kissing. Wp give her own words : "There is as much diflcrence in kisses as in individuals, and I am sure 1 should uot like to be kis'scd by every one. I indeed for some would give such an over whelming smack it would almost deafen nic. Now kissing can be reduced to rule?, one or two of which 1 will give. The head should always be turned0 slightly Jo thc right, as such a motion gives grace, and prevents the concussion of the olfact ory organs. The lips should Hun !.: pressed closely and sweetly togelhcr, .-is you sip the nectar ot the long kiss, but should not be heard. I speak pnrticuhirly on this subject, because I consider kiUi"ir a part of our nature, and because few people appear to understand thc value of a kiss, and the manner in which such sal utation wiih the lips should be rendered."

"ElCiV horse has six teeth above and below; be fore three years old, he sheds his middle teeth; at three he sheds one more on each side of the central teeth; at four, he sheds thc two corner and last of the fore-teeth. Between four and five, the horse cuts thc under tusks; at five, will cut his upper tusks, at which time his mouth will bc complete. At six years, the grooves and hollows begin to fill up a little; at seven, the grooves will be well nigli filled up, except the corner teeth, leaving' little brown spots where the dark-brown hollows form- eily were. At eight, the whole of th hollows and grooves arc filled up. At nine, there is very oficn seen a small bill to the outside comer teeth; the point of the tusk is worn off, and the part that was concave begins to fill up and become rounding; the squares of the central teeth begin to disappear, and the ums leave tnem small and narrow at top.
