Beritembur—and yer here skeeters ; well,
I bee been a lookin fur ye sum time since,
An a hopin that ye wouldn't cum
At all, but yer bein here
Won't keep me frum speakin out mi mind,
Fur i've g. t no respec furyer presents ye tarnal
Pests, wurs than the frogs that pla4ed Near,
And made him let the 'gyptions all go free ;
But that's a ole subgee.
Ye need'ut buzz roun an maids so much ado ,
For yur nuthin but a skeeter no how,
A cussed little thing, and a littler pit
When yer wan a wiggle tail.
Spose yer don't remember whar yer cum from.
Folks don't, ginerally, wen they git up a notch,
I don't no what yer made fur, no how,
Cept it was to keep the perlice awake ; well,
I spect that was it.
Sum sez yer sing, so due a hose,
The durndest singin out, if yer call it singin,
Yo can quit, or els ile own ive got no year
Fur muiick; if poits fund virtues in yer,
Skeeters, its morn i kin, i don't think yer
Performanall ever raise a angel to the skies,
Specially if I'm the angel.
Well yer a triky varmint after awl ;
Ye put me in mind of lawyers, bout as triky,
Yer always found inside a bar, reddy to
Run up a bill, au it keeps a feller sparrin
To keep yer off, be gits no sleap,
Yer make nits morale, and mornin

MIS-Ca:ILLANV:
THE WIFE.
"A home to go to."-11G•s. Ellis,
Beautiful, inexpressibly oeautiful defini
tion, suggestive of gentleness, alleetton,
rest! Yes, rest and home.
Even I—l who have been a wanderer
all my life long—who have never had a
fireside all my own—mine to be sat by with
a:second self, dearer, if possible, than the
fireside—even I, lingering over that phase,
can scarcely reconcile myself to the fact
that I am not to some fond and faithful
heart that being to go home to.' Even I
can shut my eyes and dream a dream of
which that would be a blessed reality.
I can see a cottage which love has
made holy, nestling away in the sunny
summer leaves, where the golden glory of
sunset longest lingers, and the shadows
latest reach. I can see the gentle wife,
with her soft, sweet face g - izing out through
the open door, and down the lane to the
turnpike where he is momentarily expect
ed to appear. I can hear the hunt of chil
dren's voices, and feel the pressure of cool,
fresh hisses, which come only from child
hood's lips, I can read in the sudden
flashing of her eye that there is a step not
too far distant for her impatient ear to dis
tinguish; and now I can see him, that
impetuous, worldly man, leaving the world
he has • - atak,laßo ItiPi to...RPM ik
wife in his arms ; there are children clam
bering his knees for kisses ; there is peace,
quietude, home, all around him, and the
worldly man, with the dust of city life on
his spirit, with the knowledge of city
cares and city speculations teeming in his
brain, turns from them all to find rest and
repose in the little nook he has set apart
for love ! God bless hint, and God bless
her—imaginary though they are;
for
while I witness their perfect love and con
tent, I am remembering that I am still a
wanderer. A wanderer with the knowl
edge that, had fate been more propitious,
I, too, might have had my loving heart,
my sunny home, and my loving children.
But fate was inexorable. and where all this
happiness might have been, lies stark and
bare before me the panorama of two wast
ed lives. God help us all; we are not the
architects of our own destiny, let moralists
say what they will.
I know that the world is full of homes
that are no homes, of wives upon whose
artificial hearts no true husband could cull
for sympathy, or mothers upon whose bare,
jeweled necks there is no room for child
hood's fondling arms. I knew all this, yet
I cannot realize that it is ao ! Love seems
to me so sacred, marriage so holy a tie,
that man or woman's life should not be
complete without it. Not the wild, fierce,
persistent love which burns itself out in its
own Ere—not the marriage of circumstance
tar convenience to which so many lives are
devoted, but the pure, true, lasting love—
the wedding of souls that have grown in•
dissolubly to each other—the uniting of
hearts that neither time, nor, distance, nor
misfortune can effect—a union of soul,
sense, and spirit, sure as death, and lasting
as eternity. Pitiful, oh, most pitiful, that
there are no more such unions !
A being to go home to!' Only the
heart of man can tell how truly, in every
life, such a being is needed. No matter
how self-centered, or preoccupied, no tune.
ter how burdened down with the cares and
perplexities of life, there come yearnings
for that rapturous, human love, dreamiogs
of fond lips and warm, loving arms, and
anticipations of a time to come when one
heart, out of the great wilderness of hearts
shall best for him, and him alone.
Lucky for him who, admits the unreal
and artificial glare of life, gathers to his
bosom this pearl of greatest price. Lucky
for him who, when the tempest of care
and worldly responsibility rage most fierce
ly, can feel that when the tiresome toil is
over, and the der is done, he has' a being
to go home to,' who can minister to his
comfort and sympathize with his cares.—
The man who has a wife that he truly loves,
and a wife who truly loves him, can make
up his tr.ind that he has anticipated the
nrillenium, and commenced his paradise
on earth.

Extract of a letter from Thos. R. Leavitt, an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney,
New South Wales, dated I:urinary 12, 18?18 :
"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in
which there were over three thousend pints of
sewing done with one of Grover &Baker's Ma
chines, and a single seam of that has outstootl
all the double seams sewed by sailors with a nee
dle and twine,"
"If Homer could be called up from his mur

than was ever Vulcan's smith. He would de

spring of woes unnumbered."—Prof. North.
"I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover &

Senator of South Carolina.
