Who counts himself as nobly born
Is noble in despite of place, -
And honors are but bonds, to t k one
Who wears them not with nature's grice
The prince may sit with clown or churl,
Nor feel his state disgraced thereby;
But he who has hat small esteem
Husbands that little carefully.

Count it still more than art thy own ;

To have the thing without the name

One winter evening many years ago .a
fair young girl stood before the glass in
her own pleasant little room, giving the
last touches to her toilet. That night
was the first party of the season, and
perhaps Emma might be excused ifsh'e
lingered a little longer than usual,
smoothing once again her dark brown
hair, and adjusting the soft "folds-of. her
beautiful dress.
"Come, Emma," called-her mother at
ength, "I am afraid .14u have forgotten
that Mr. B- is waiting_ for you."
No, Emma had not forgotten, as 'the
rosy flush that stole across 'the -elfeek
testified. Her last thougbt, - as she-stood
smiling at her reflection in . the glass had
been, "'his is the color which he likes ;
I am sure he will be pleased."
D_,
Quickly she'urried down stairs 'and
after playfully excusing her delay, while
the flush deepened at Mr. B--'s ev
ident admiration, turned to her mother
saying, 'I believe I am ready at last.'
"Take good care of yourself, darling,"
said the mother, as she wrapped a warm
shawl around the slender form, '"and
don't stay late."
Their destination was soon reriChed;
and as the young man moved through
the brilliantly lighted room "many a
glance of admiration was cast at hip
coropaninn, and more than one of hit
friends whispered, "James is ,
fellow ; I'd give a good deal to be able
to monopolist Miss BIOME , . as tie does."
The evening sped, joyously on, arid at
length, towards its close, • refreshments
were handed around. Mr. B was
standing a little apart from Emma, who
was the center of, a .laughing -group ' of
young girls, when the lady of the house,
with a smile, offered
,him a small glass
of wine.
"No, thank you ; I do not
was his reply.
"Paws? I what nonsense," she return
ed. "no one has refused it this ,evening,
and .I don't intend to allow you to be
the first. Come, ust one glass, it caret
hurt any one."
"I cannot do it,",,he answered gravely
"for I have determined never , to taste a
drop,"
"Come hore, Emma," called the lady'
"I want you to coax this obstinate young
man to take a little wine. I know he
will not refuse you." ,
Emma took the glass in her little
white hand, with a Benito wlkicb few could
have resisted, said, "Como,: James, yon
will take just this one glogr!,,
"No, Emma," he answAredo with- a
painful effort. "I: havec.made np

around the head of the, grave, when
,the

In a. Harry to get Married.
A few days since, a man in his shirt

Rome, N. Y., and requested a marriage
license. The deputy informed him that
ho must apply to the probate judge.
" Stranger," said he, "if you'll show
me where that are, I'll give you a shillin'

*hen next heard of, be was with his

W4.he did not go home, put on , his coat
and be married like a gentleman.
".Shaw, squire I" said he ; "it don't
make the least bit of diffierence, and if I
go to the boat after my coat, I may lose
the gal:—There's two fellere r wants her,
and she dOn't care which she has !"
The "silken cord that bound two will

leg the sqsire thathe needn't have said
the part, about putting asunder, because
there wan't no danger of that.
The, squire took his fee and said :

-"Well, he has," responded the bride.
