Andrew Lee came home at evening from the shop where he had worked all day. tired, and out of spitits; came home to his wife, who was also tired, and cut of spirits. "A smiling wife," and a "cheerful home what a paradise it would be !" said An drew to bitnstdf, as he turned his eyes from .hj clouded face of Mrs. Le, and sat uoa'o, with uitted brow, and moody as p C- t a word was spoken by cither,-Mrs. Lee was getting snppor, and she moved about with a weary step. Come," she said at last, with a i-ide-glance at her husband. Ti.cre was invitation ia the worJ only, none ia the voic of Mrs. Loo. Andrew arose and went to the table, lie was tempted to pcak an aury word, but controlled hiiu-sclf, and kept silent. He could Cud no fault with the chop, nor the sweet houic-iuale bread, nor the fragrant tea They would have cheered his inward man, if thre had only been a glsam of sunshine on the fice of his wife. He noticed that the did cot cat " ' ' Are you not well, Mary ?" The words wcra on his lips, but he did not utter them, for the face of -bis wife looked so repellant, that he feared au irritating reply. And so. in moody silence, the twain sat together until AaJrow uad bin shed his supper. As he pushed his chair back, his wife arose, and commenced clearing off the supper ta ble. "This is "purgatory !' said Leo to him self, as h. commenced walking the floor of theii little breakfast room, with his bands thrust dc.spoiattly away down in his trouser's pockets, and his chin almost touching his breast. After removing the dishes, and taking them m:o tue Kiicuen, Airs. Jjee spread a green I cover oc me laoie, ana placing a iresu trim med lamp thereon, went out, and shut the djor after her, leaving her husbaud alone with his uupleasent feelings. lie took a long, deep breath as she did so, pausedfin his walk, stood still a few moments, and then drawing a paper froai his pocket, sat down by the ta ble, opened the 6heet and commenced read ing. iSiogularly enough, the words upon which his eyes rested were, "Praise your wife." ' They rather tended to' increase the disturbance of mind from which be was suf fering. "I should like to find some occasion for prasing mine." How quickly his thoughts expressed that ill-natured sentiment. But his eyes were on the page and be read on. "Prabie your wife, man ; for pity's sake give her a little encouragement ; it won't hurt her." - Andrew Lee raised bis eyes from the pa per, and muttered. "Oh, yes. That's all very well. Praise is cheap enough. Bat praise her for what. For being sullen, and making: your home the most disagreeable in the world" Ilia jea fell again on the paper. "Sho has made your home comfortable, jour hearth bright and chining, your food a greeable ; for pity's sake, tell her you thank ! tier, if nothing more She don't expect it, it might make her eyes open wider than they have for ten years; but it will do her good for all that, and you too ' j It seemed to Andrew as if this -setiteLce was written just for him, and just for the oc- ' casion. It was the complete answer to his J question, ."Praise her for what?" and he felt j it also a rebuke. He read no farther, for thought came too busy, and in a new direc tion. Memory was convicting him of injus tice towards his wife. She had always made his -Lime as comfortable for him as hands could make, and had he offered the light of praise or commendation? Had ue told her of the satisfaction he had known or tho com fort experienced? He was not able to recall the time or the occsasion. As he thought tnus, Mrs. Lee came from the kitchen, and takice her work-basket from a closet, placed it on the table, and sitting down, without speaking began to sew. Mr. Lee glanced al most stealthily at the work in her hands, and saw it was the bosom of a shirt, which she was stitching neatly. He knew that it was for him that the was at work. "Praise -.your wife-V Tho words were before the eyes of his mind, and he could not look away from them. But he was not ready for this yet He still felt moody and unfor giving. The expression of his wife.s face he interpreted to mean ill-nature, and with ill nature he had no patieuce. His eye fell upon- the newspaper which lay spread out be fore him, and he read the sentence. "A kind cheerful word, spoken in a gloo my home, is like the rift in a cloud that lets the sun through." Mr. Lee struggled with himself a while lo.igcr. His own ill-nature bad to be con quered first: bis moody, accusing spirit had to be subdued. But he was coming right, and at last got right, as to will. Next came the question as to how he should begin. He thought of many things to say, yet feared to say them, lest his wife should met his advan ces with a cold rebuff. At last, leaning tow ards her and taking hold of the bosom upon which she was at work, he said, with a voice carelully modulated with Kind ness "Yoa ara doing that work very beautiful ly. Mary." Mrs. Lee made no reply. But her hus band did not fail to observe that she lost al most instantly, that rigid erectness with which she had been sitting, nor the motion of her needle Land ceased. My ebirts are better made, and whiter tbaa those of any ether man in our shop," said Leo CECouraged to go on "A are they t Mrs. Lee s voice was low. aud in it a slight huskiness. She did not turn her face, but her husband eaw sho lean ed a little towards bim. He has broken through the ice of preserve, and all was easy now. His hand was among the clouds, and a few feeble rays and already straggling through the rift it had made. "Yes, Mary," he answered softly, "and I httvo heard it said-more -than onco-'what a- gocd wife Andrew Lee must have." Mrs. Lee turned her face towards her hus band. There was light ia it, and light in her eye. But there something ia the expres sion of her eye that puzzled hiro. "Do you think so r she asked quite.sober- "Nvhata question T ejaculated Andrew Lee, starting up, and going around to the side of the table where his wifs was sitting. "What a question, Mary!" he repeated as he stood before her. "Do you ?" It was all she said. "Yes. darling," was the warmly spoken an- sit . swer, and ue stooped down and kissed her. "How strange that yoa should ask me such a question . "If you would only ill me now and then, Andrew, it would do me good." And Mrs Lee arose, and leaning her face against the manly breast of her husband," stood and wept. What a strong light broke in upon the mind of Andrew Lee. Ho bad never given to his faithful wife even the smallest reward of praise for all her loving interest she had P 1 T 1 w w maniiestea aaiiy, until aouot oi a is love uad entered her soul, and made the light around her thick darkness. No wonder that her face grew clouded, nor that what he consider ed moodiness and ill-nature took possession of ner fpirit. "You are good and true, Mary. My own dear wife. I am proud of you I love you and my first desire is your happiness Oh. if I could always see your face in sun shine, my home would be the dearest place on earth 'How "precious to me are your words of love and praise, Andrew, said Mrs. Lee, smiling up through her tears into his face. "With them in my ears, my heart can never lie in shadow." How easy had been the work of An drew Lee. He had swept his band around the cloudy horizon of his home, and now the bright sunshine was streaming down and flooding that home with joy and beau ty. Celestial Phenomena this year.

Campbell, of Ohio, aged about 24 years, was run over at Hamilton, Ohio "on Thursday last, by a heavy freight train, and was instantly killed An Aclrenture on the Cars. There were five of us yea, five as happy fellows as ever were ever let loose from col lege. It was "vacation." and we concluded to make a trip to 4he Falls We got aboard the cars at N , and were soon travel ling very rapidly toward our destination. We had just seated ourselves and prepared for a comfortable smoke, when in came the conductor, and who should it be but our old friend Fred B .. After the common salutations "how are you, old . fellow," ect. had passed, Fred said he had some business for us to attend to. ' "Out with it, old chum," said we; "any thing at all -will be acceptable, so let ua have it " ' y V Well, bej;" ftild Fred, in a very confi dential tone, "ia that next car there is as lovin' a pair as it was ever my lot to see, They are going dawn to n to get mar ried, and now if you can have any fun over it, just pitch in. They must be cared for, and I don't know who can do it better than you." In a moment Fred was gone, and we set out heads together, to form a plan for taking care of the lovers. "I have it boys," said Bill Severs; "we must make that girl think that her lover is a married" "That's it. Bill that's it," said we, not giving him time to finish the sentence. "That be is a married man and the father of children," said Bill. "Thais tho game, boys, now let us play it out." It devolved upon me to commence opera, tions. Accordingly, I entered the car in which we were informed the lovers were. The girl thinking, I suppose, that she must give her lover au toe-seat, bad taken a seat on his knee; and he, for the purpose of protecting her, of course had thrown his arm around her waist: and so they sac, in real, soft lovers' style. Ail this I gathered at a glance. Stepping up to them, I said: "Why, Jones, what in the duce are you doing with this girl? The girl arose, hastily and seated htraelf on the seat. "See here, stranger," sajd the fellow, you're a mite mistaken: my name ain't Jones.' "Why, Jones," said I, "you certainly hav en't left your wife and children, and tried to palm yourself off for a single man have you? "I te-1 you my name am t Jones; it s Har per, it never was Jones; "taint n gom to be nuther 1-too rely sbovt- tay head, and passed on- to another seat to 6ee the rest of the fun. The girl looked "will" after I eat down; but Jones alias Harper, soon convinced hc-r that I was mistaken. "Why, Jones, von here? now did you leave your wife and babies?" "2Sow sec here stranger, you ain t the fust man that's called me Jones to-'day, an' I rec- on I must look artfully like him; but I ain't Jones, and mor'n that, you musen't call me Jones. I hain't rot a wife' nor babies either but this ere gal an' me is going to splice, an' then you can talk about my wife, aod I woldu't wonder but what in the course of time you might talk about the babies, too; but you musn t call me Jones! This retort brought forth voicferous laugh ter from the spectators, and also brought blushes to the face of "the gal that was goin' to be gpliced. .- u "Ab, Jones'iraU Gregg, "you will re gret this in the ' future. I pttty your wife and children, and this poor girl?" "So, Mr. Harper, your real name is Jones is if; an' you've been foolin me, hava you? Well, we ain't spliced yet an I don't think we will be soon," said the girl,-and her eyes fairly flashed fire. "Jane, Jane," said Harper, "don't you know I'm Bill Harper? Thar ain't a darn drop of Jones blood in mc, an I'll prove it to you." At this moment, Jeff Jackson. Bill Jevers, and Jim Beyers entered, and of course their attention was called to Harper by his loud talking. They stepped up to him and Baid: "Why, Jones, what is all this fuss about." This was more than Harper could stand. He leaped upon a seat. "Now." said he, "bit name ain't Jones, an' lean lick the feller that says it is." . By this time we had got to U and our friecd Fred came into the car and made Harper keep quiei. The girl that wouldn't be "spliced" requested Fred to belp her on the train that was going back to N , which he did, and the notorious Jones, alias Harper, followed her. We learned after wards, that he proved himself to be Bill liar per, instead of Bill Jones, and he and his gal Jane "got spliced." Stereoscopic Sptctaclts.

Great Wedding at St. Louis. The St. Louis Republican comes to us with a tall and very able report of the great wed ding"of Mr. Timothy McKillgubbin and Miss Sophia Simlichgoot, of that city. One paper alone r-mployed nineteen reporters to procure the fullest particulars of the affair, stimulated to this enterprise, no doubt by the uncounted affluence of the -happy bridegroom, and his rather novel choice of one of the fair daugh ters of the Kh'.ne, together with other circum stances too wearisome to enumerate, which made this wedding an event of remarkable hugeness, justifying the papers in giving all the interesting particulars. Timothy McKillgubbin, is a native, , as his name would indicate, of one of the cautions of Grcecs. His mother never had but one child a boy and by a coincidence, Timothy wm the ehild. He was exceedingly young at the time of his birth, and is, consequently now in his forty-third year. The splendors unmatchable of the bride's troutseau are thus faithfully given : One green and red cotton dress, single skirt, illustrated with a representation of the Har per's Ferry invasion, and a correct likeness of Ossawotomie Brown.

The following anecdote, from Harper's Magazine for July, illustrates the indefinable position of certain wavering latter-daj politi cians : "During tho agitation in 1812, relative to the declaration of war with Great Britain, it is well known that the subject met with a strong opposition in the New England repre sentation in Congress, as well as in a great portion of tie people in that section of the country. Meetings expressive of hostility to the bill were held throughout those States, and it was proposed that the good people of L., should manifest their pacific spirit and define their position. A public demon stration "was agreed nponandold Parson M , being considered the 'man for the times, was called upon by .a committee appointed for that purpose, with the request that he would prepare an address appropriate to the occas ion. "The yarson did not yield a rsady compliance, but illustrated his reply in this wise : 1 once knew,' said he, a widow lady in Scotland who bad an only eon. Upon him she had expended much to enable him to ac quire an .education He was absent from home for a long while attending school. Having completed his course of studies, he returned to his good old mother. 'Come John, said she on the eight of his arrival home, and when they were about making preparations to retire, you've been a long time away from me, my aon, and have stud ied much. I know you are a good lad, but I have never heard ye pray.

" 'Well, mother,' says John, 'how did it suit ye ?' 'Pretty well pretty well, John, replied the old lady, 'but xhy dina ye gie the aid deil a slap or tico V ' " 'Oh, ays John, 'not I not I. for you knaw, mither, there's none of us knows whose hands me may sometime full into ' " Weighing the Evidence.
