Then the golden woof of pleasure, • 'Sunlight dancing' on each. thread, Dancing to life's joyous measure, Fairly turned my childish head. I am dreaming of the hours, When hope with golden light stole o'er my childish fancy, In. visions pure and tright. Then came the guileless friendships Of those merry hlitheseme days, 1.4 ith memories of the hill-side haunts, Still loved though far ai.Vey, Those golden hours have passed.away, Those friends are changed or gone, Some have forgotten childhood's day, In the busy gay world's tone. We meet life's stern realities, Old nature seems less kind, And now the shadows creep before, The sunlight steels behind. Mrs. X., who resides in our so istatorial district, had a neighbor, who was repre sented to be quarrelsome in. his family, making his home anything but pleasant to dWell in. She, however, having heard that his wife was a great deal of a vixen, thought the wife might also be to blame for the unpleasant state of affairs in the household. So, full of charity and the doctrines of the law of kindness, I,TrF, X. visited her neighbor's hen: E+, the benevolent intent of recencilinr, the differences existing there, and addressed the better half something in this stylr "Now, you know," said she, "how mud-, pleasanter it would be if y'Oa and your husband would live together without quarrelling; and, instead of fellT, a ro. proach to the neighborhood, you might become honored members of society.— And it may be that you are not alto- gether blameless in this matter. Sup pose you try and see what the law of kindness practiced toward your husband will do, in effecting reconciliation. It certainly can do 12Q horen, and you may succeed in touching the tender cords of his heart, .and he may renew his old af fection. Try it," she urged, "and if you do not succeed, you wilt at least heap coals of fire on his head," and so on. All this was listened to, when the fol lowing reply was made : "I don't know about your coals of fire ; 1 have tried boiling hot water, and it didn't do a bit of good." WIJERE THE StIOE I'INCHES.—Tho fol lowing is : said to he the origin of the well known saying, "Nobody knows where the shoe pincheS brit he who wears IL" , A Roman being about to repudiate his wife among a variety of other ques tions was asked by her enraged kins man, "Is not your wife a sensible wo• man ? is she not handsome ?" In answer to which, slipping off his shoe, he held it np, asking them, "is not this shoe a very handsome one? is it not quite new? is it not extremely well made ? How, then, is it that you can't tell me where it pinches ?" We wonder whether John Morgan wears the wig we sent him at Camp Chase made of the hair of a dozen or so of his female admirers. If we can cap ture him, we shall claim the wig as a portion of the spoils of victory. We shall not wear it ourselves, for we have an exuberant wealth of native curls, but wo will put it upon a figure-head on the top of our office, where every male rebel; while passing by, can make a bow to it, and every female one a courtesy.—Louis ville Journal. ear Flirtation, whether seriously or lightly considered, is injurious to a wo mamas well as unbecoming to her.

Aaron was for running over to his aunt's. "No," said Mose, "bring, the gun, the woods are full of squirrels. We might kill a dozen walking the two miles." The road led • along tho creek bank- Aaron was in a brown study, thinking of May. • Mose was looking up. in the tree tops and among the bushes, anx ious for a' pop at something.

Mose being the light est, gave the gun to Aaron, climbed far out on a branch over the creek, and got into a squirril's nest. Aaron wasn't so high. It was a pretty sight, of course You've read about nymphs, syrens. &c. ; they couldn't compare. Hair loose, floating on the water. Polly was white as snow. She was plump as a partridge in peatime, and eat on the wave like a bird on its nest. Troup was slim. Aaron proinised not to look at Ange line if Mose wouldn't wink at May. Im possible! Angeline snorted gracefully, like a native of the element, and May was a black-eyed heart couleur de rose from top to toe. They splashed and paddled, and chatted like mad. Soon the tree began' to shake. Aaron had a terrible back ague, and Mose be gan to smoke and burn, commencing at the ears. There was a louder- noise than usual among the unconscious bathing beauties, Aaron scratched his already elongated neck, at the same time hitching the gun forward. Unfortunately the trigger caught in a vine, and it went off - in a deafening report. It was the climax of the adventure. Moses trembled from excitement into the creek, plump right between Sue and Polly. The girls then dove, badly strangled, and run up the bank, their white backs gazed at by the fish-hawk that had pounc ed among them.

Thomas Holloway, the inventor of the popular medicinal remedies that bear his name, has adopted a more pub lic and comprehensive method of defying Error and establishing Truth. He has advertised his Pills and Ointment in nearly every newspaper in the world, and fortified his, proclamations with a mass of anthentic testimony which no disputant has thought it prudent to as sail. Crichton was a great theorist. Holloway is it"man 'of facts. He takes for his premises twenty years of success ful praetice, and innumerable well attes ted cures, and asks the world to draw its owm conclusions. He has a simple and perspicuous theory of the common origin of all diseases. and upon this theory the composition of his famous remedies is based; but he rightly deems that the ex perimental proofs of their efficacy con stitute abetter passport to public confi dence than a thousand philosophical essays upon the causes which lie at the root of their astonishing effects; In ar gument, the ingenious and subtile cavil ler, may'soinetitnes"preveeen' overmatch for' plainplain reasdn; but there - never liv4d ;the 'hose ni s seke;rer 'elbquent, that: coUld . overcome a•soled , array of facts.

Recently the Detroit Tiibano andonuced the following final of the affair. Soon after the discovery of the guilty parties, the grieving husband . 'took up his march to recapture his erring sponse- He was quite unsuccessful, we learn, in his efforts to persuade th'e lady to retain to his bosom, although he spoke to her in words never so eloquent, in words never so winning After much diplomacy on each side, with great plottings, a compromise was effected, whereby the Male darling of yore should live with his spouse and should enjoy; in addition, the high feli city of the society of the male darling of the present. And in pursuance of this plan, the three are now living in triple bliss in Bedford. This is the raciest instance of domes tic joy within our knowledge. The lady is certainly privileged. She has a sober husband of forty-five, and she .has a gay young stripling of nineteen. When she further increases her supply of lovers we trust . her tAodestyywill not...prevent the annopncerpettt ofthe fact. SUMMER : The editor or th'e` GermantoWn TelegraTiV4ys': "Are have long be'ed l&raitor of the summer pruning of fruit trees, of all si zes: Full twenty years ago we were convinced of its good" results.' It is ad vantageous in two ways : First, by short ening in the rapidly groWing br'anches, it produces fruit spare for the following year, and brings the trees into any de sired form. Second, when larger limbs are removed, the wound, instead of leav ing a bare, protruding and decaying stump, beautifully heals up, making a permanently sound amputation. 'The period when this pruning should be done, is one of prime importance. We see June recommended, while the trees are in their full first growth. With out having experimented, and looking to the condition of the trees, in this month, it does not meet our assent. We do not believe that it is advisable to prune before the first growth of the sea son is completed, because of the imma turity of the wood, which must produce in the second growth less vigorous shoots, besides losing, to a large extent, the yield of fruit the Succeeding yetir, which is sure to follow judicious shorten iog-in at a later period. "In oar judgement 'summer pruning' should take place between the fifteenth of July and tenth of August=a period when the sap is quiescent and nature is resting - awhile from her Jabot% We speak from our own knowledge of the value of midsummer pruning of trees, large or small." NEW CLOTHES.—Said Joe to Bill— both were old bummers, .and both terri bly - dry : "Bill, if you'll treat, I'll tell you where you can get a whole snit of clothes on six months' trust," "Will you, though ? Now, no foolin', Billy." "True as preachin' I will," said Joe, and the parties took a drink at Bill's expense, when Joe, with the twinkling of an eye, said : "You go up to the recruiting rendez vous, and tell 'em yer want a suit of clothes. They'll give them to yer on six months trust." Bill said his health was so delicate that he couldn't "list." TIIE PRESIDENT'S LATEST.—The New York Times says that a gentleman, in conversation with Mr. Lincoln, on Fri day, remarked that nothing could defeat his re-election but Grant's capture of Richmond, to be followed by his nomi nation at Chicago and acceptance.' "Well," said the President, "I feel very much like the man who said he didn't want to die particularly, but if he had to die, that was precisely the disease he would like to die of." Ifir In the city of New York, it is stated that a number of the butchers have closed their establishments for want of business—many people, from the enormous prices demanded, having stopped buying •meat and others living on salt meat—such as pork, ham, and shoulders. ter Baron James de Rothschild, head of the French branch of the great house, has had the misferturp to lose his young est eon, Solomon by name, aged about thirty years, who married one - of the cousins about a year ago. .The young , man - wasstruck down - suddehly by disease of the. heart. , VOL. 10.--NO. 48. A HOME FOR SALE.--How much we dislike to read so sad an announcement in the advertising department of the papers I Not a house and grounds only, but all the long, cheering memories and •tender associations of the place, that enrich it with a wealth beyond the com putation of .business men, the traders in homesteads and other classes of real estate. It is a sorry day for a man and the more so for a family--when he is obliged to _give up his home and go drifting again over the world. No ex perience like this shocks the sensative heart. All gone, all deserted 1 The lights shining no more in the window.— The familiar faces no longer pressed against the panes. The fires dead and gone out. The smoke no more curling from the chimneys. The dear voices will not be heard there, again, though the man pass and repass the house daily. Ah, there is indeed no desolation of a sort like this His must be a hard and undeveloped nature that can contem plate such a scene without the deepest emotion. To lose one's home, is to lose nearly all that earth has to offer of hap piness to man. • OBEYING rtiF. , PniESt-LAn Irishman made a midden rus h into a druggist's shop, took frcim his pocket a soda-ater bottle, filled td the brim with some pare liquor, and handing it across the counter ex claimed! "There doctor, snuff that, will you ?" The doctor did as requested and pro nounced the article to be genuine whis ky. "Thank yon doctor," said the Irishman Hand it to me again, if you please.' The doctor did as directed, and asked what he meant. "Och, thin," said Pat, `if you will have it, the priest tould me not to drink any of this unless I got it from the doctor.-- ao, here's your health and the. priest's health." erlt is related that when Humboldt was asked, "Why the male of the human species offered an exception to the rule so general among all other animals, that the male is handsomer than the fe male ?" he answered, after a moment's reflection, I deny the fact ! It is our natural gallantry that makes us think women more beautiful than men. The women do not concur in the opinion." Humboldt was a philosopher, and it wouldn't be modest to contradict him, on the.main pOint";' while; as to the last proposition—that women think men handsomer than themselves—if it be true, the dear creatures won't thank us for agreeing with them. In this double dilemma, we eay—notbing, ffir A Western Court has recently de cided that a kissis u valid consideration. It seems` that an old bachelor—these old bachelors, by the way, are useless institutions, any how you can fix it— offered a young lady a pony for a kiss. The young damsel accepted the offer and gave the kiss ; but the mean old cur mudgeon, after receiving the oscillatory salute, refused to stand by his part of the contract. A suit was therefore en tered, and the jury decided that the pony, or its value, should be given to the girl. Gs' A large proportion of the public may not be aware that the use of zinc vessels for domestic purposes is extreme ly dangerous. Vinegar, cider, wine, and in fact all acids which remained in zinc, become poisonous more or less violent ; this is even the case with milk, which contains powerful acid termed acid-la tique. Various cases of sickness, cholic and even many deaths of young child ren, have occurred, the cause of which has been clearly traced to the use of milk that has been in contact with this 'metal. ur The Government lands in the United States now amount to fourteen hundred thousand millions of acres.
