Is is. of the rivers, he Jell is sempany ar atlve lady and gestleesse, to whom be was some of his easier tram onsequitos. " Hissimesi," said the lady to the petlenm owning that title, "you had better tell tin gen Unman about the use we met, in lowa." The blot was sullieket, sad the "husband" =tto say that, in their travels farther oy made she acquaintance of a stalwart, rolliekisg, Wastes Hoosier, one of the genus who amid "whip his weight in wild eat;" but who possessed a fund of quiet humor. On one measioe, they had stopped at a hotel in the inte rim, sot of the most inviting appearance. They were shown to their rooms, the homier st one ad, mid the lady and gentleman at the other sad of a lam hall. About midnight the drowsy maple were startled by a report of fire arms, messed* from the end of the ball occupied by their travelling oompanlos. Both started up in the bed sad begs. to speculate upon the probable eases of the untimely alarm, when they heard a reshisgof het and a contusive of voices in the ball. Os goieg to the door, the gentleman found the whole isse-hold, headed by the landlord, rushing is the direetioe of the report. His curiosity led him to join thismidaight procession, and be arrived with the rest at the hoosier's doer. The landlord tried tie latish, but found the door fast, whoring*n in a loud voice, he demanded admission. 1, What do you watet?" roared a voioe with.. " Want to some ial" replied the landlord. " Oaa't do it," was the response from within, " It's my room, and I'■ in bed—esn't some " Let use ial" sheeted the landlord, in a louder taco, at, the ease time shaking the door violent: ly, "or I'll break the door down!" gold on!" rejoined the voice within; open the door." The door wee soon open, whin in rushed the whole party, npeeting to see the whole door insured with blood. What was their surprise to see everything in its proper plum, and the hoosier ads and nuoseerned. A revolver wu careless ly lying upon the bed. " Who fired that pistol?" demand the land lord " I did," was the reply. "!Myr' asked the hadlord. The heftier stepped to the bed, sod 'throwing open the eovering„ said, "Look here. Do you see that?" The attention of the party wu at once direct. tki to tLe point indicated, and there over the whole vague of the sheet, bed hop were scam pering in every direction, like a flock of sheep frightened by a dog. The landlord wu chagrin ed and mulled, aid looked to his lodger for an explanation. "These," bepa the hoarier, straightening himself up to bts full height and gesticulating with his right hank in grandiloquent style, "these are my friends I have settled an armis tics with thenrraad we are on frleodly terms, bat on the window sill there, just outside, you will lad two infernal big follows that I oonldn't do saytbi4- with, and so I just put a bullet through Wu. Bat it's all right now, it's all understood between Re and my friends here, and we shall get along well enough now." It is needless to add, that the landlord retired to his own bed visibly me-fallen, while the s= enjoyed a beady Clangh.—Spirieual I_, : 1 0 4 4 fi‘ola ft as A gentlessa 'recently returned from the West relates to the Boston Tralvelkr that in setting out early in tbOsorning from the pleas where be bad passed the night, be ooesulted his map of the eostatry, mil lading that a very considerable town, milled Please, occupied a point of his road, but some 12 or 15' miles of, eoiseluded to jour_ soy as far as that plum before breakfast. An• other equa/iy-sztausive tows, bearing as sound ing a name, was laid down at a convenient din. team for his afternoon stage, sad there he pro posed halting for the night.

At length, aunties a solitary wood whop. preening from the forest, be aeoosted him sad isqiired bow fir it was to Pisani. "Visa • as," exclaimed the Asa, ' , why you passed it five and twenty miles book. Did you mass a stick of timber and a biased tree beside the rosid?— dist was Visalia!" The dismayed traveler then *aired how far it was to the other place at, which he designed pawing the sight "Why you are right on that plies sow," returned the man; "it bogies jest ea the *the side of you raviee, and runs dews to a slump of girdled trees which you will see about a farther on the road."

Criumn WILL n Czn.roury No, not always; sometimes they are forced in• to little (ld men and women. We know well that the above is a time honored adage, but like too many of its family, it is not infallible.. A late admired autbor says : "The children of the eery poor do not prattle." It is none a( the least frightful features of that condition, that there is no childishness in its dwellings. Poor people, said a sensible old nurse to us once, doi not bring up their children ; they drag them up. The lit tle careless darling of the wealthier nursery, in their hovel, is transformed betimes into a mature reflecting person * * * * It was dragged up, to live or din as it happened. It had no young dreams It broke at once into the iron realities of life. It makes the very heart bleed to overhear the casual street talk. It is not of toys, of nursery books, of Summer holidays (fit ting that age,) of the promised sight of play, of praised sufficiency. It is of mangling and dear starching; of the price of coal and potatoes The questions of the child, that should be the very outpourings of curiosity in idleness, are marked with forecast and melancholy providence. It has come to be a woman before it was a child. There are two classes of old children :—First, the precocious, or those who are taught by their friends and themselves to be ouch; who never say anything in baby style, but in the precise words ofjheir parent or teacher; who, from hear ing their sage remarks and wise doings, repeated and repeated, become artful, and angle for praise, as does the fisherman for a bite; who, knowing they have a reputation hr old age, struggle against nature to maintain it, by abstaining from romping, which is as much the lawful business of childhood as are mercantile pursuits, professional labor, or manual toil, that of riper years. Such children we have met, who made it a point to ex hibit their remarkable powers on all occasions; who, when visitors entered, slipped away from play as if caught in a theft, and would be mai denly lost in the pages of a big book This class of children aro as disagreeable ri the stranger as truly precocious onese—of whom there are very few—are painful The last, by the untimely de velopment of their minds, forbid us, as does the premature blossom, to hope for fruit. Such pre cocity is the effect of an imperfect physical strew are ; or of the injudicious, hot-house, forcing system to which vain and ambitious parents re sort, and from which they must in the end gather blighted fruit. Bat there is another class wl4O have no child hood—uo building_ time it is heart sickening to see little children made old by poverty, sick ness. or sorrow; lfut sadder than all by cruelty, fear or uukiodncs• About twenty years ago, there lived in a neigh boriug city, a couple, lifting one beautiful child —a pale littie girl, at tlaat time abouraix years old. The man was a pompous, boastful person ; while the wife was meek, retiring, and 'exceed ingly sensative Her humble neighbors, won by her gentle ways, sought to extend to her those little kindnesses which nature prompts toward, the stranger. But they were often rudely re. pulsed 'by the husband `gm- their officiousness'." Her home-sick 11 ,, art fully appreciated such in tention, and she expres.sed deep gratitude for what seated to them but common civility. It was wonderful, to one who seldom heard a gentle world addressed to her at home, to receive such from utter strangers. filer husband was a perfect tyrant in his own narrow domain She felt it in her inmost heart, and showed it in- her very look, and lone, and step The love which bad. found 113 answering chord in the heart in which she had a right to find it, soon shrivelled up, and ehang: et' into submission toward him. lint it stilf`t bloomed warm and fragrant in another direction, All the swing, Fore, undying affection of her woman's heart centered on Essie, the pale, beau• tiful The daughter was never a moment absent from her mother's' side throughout the day; but the moment she heard her father's step at nightfall, she drew up her little chair into an opposite cor: oer, folded her tiny hands in her lap, and waited his entrance. S 1 soon had she learned that any show of affection toward her mother was disagree• able to him She grew old, wise and calculating. By her acutenegs she warded off many a jtorm of passion, and diverted the thoughts of the angry man away from his poor victim into other chan nels. She grew so rapidly in wisdom, and took upon herself so naturally the cruel burdens of her mother, that she began, all crushed as she was, to lean upon the child for support, and to trust to her as a peace maker in all domestic broils, if such they can be called, where all the bitterness and railing are on one side. But even woman, yielding and hopeful a she is, cannot always be pieroed and trampled. nhe time must come when nature can endure no more, —when the iron heel treads out the life, and the barbed arrow strikes the heart. So it was with this true wife, this doting mother. Her bitter cup was fall, and when it could hold no more, it fell to the ground and was broken. She was now beyond the power of sorrow.— Her ear was proot against the words of cruelty and scorn. She had gained her inheritance among "the meek" an , he "pure in heart." Desolate, indeed, • ..r little Essie, when her mother was borne away. Real children soon forget bereavements ; but she was no child.— She emerged from baby-hood into caresburthened woman-hood. No sports ever begnilded her time, sio toys ever called forth her merry laughter.— Her father "hated noisy children, and world have no nonsensical trumpery laying about the door; die must learn to behave herself without such things." . And she did learn, although it was a ernel les son for her buoyant spirit. But, after her only companion was gone she pined away with strange rapidity. Even the harsh man grew alarmed at time • work he was doing, and strove to arrest progress. But it was too late ; as well we might expect a tender severed branch to live, after*, tree from which it had drawn its life was upturn and dead. Pain and weakness were for months the por tion of little &sit ; and then a deep hectic fever bard on her cheek. One day, being carried to the mirror,by the -wiltuan who had ears of her, she shrieked out, "Oh, my dear mamma, I look just like you now ; why can't I go sway soon, and oe always with you again ? I cannot stay any, longer in this world without you." A lady who hod known her mother, and gar peshised is her solvents, called one day *inquire ter Etas.

Oh how much I should love to be there, and never be afraid any more." • She died. From some unknown CUM—perr haps in the hope of atoning f,r his past mated neee—the heartless man did one generous thing. He caused the lifeless form of the woman whose heart he had broken, to be taken from the nit• row bed, and then laid mother and ettibl in tree coin.

Good humor was prevailing, and one awry sag ileated,another. The Goveralways efjjeyed a story, and could tell one with excellent dent.
