THE ALLOTMENT SYSTEM.-Sir Charles Napier con-
siders that nothing will so much tend to ameliorate the
condition of the labouring classes as the allotting to them
small portions of land. The gallant officer says that some
time since he, with certain others, took an Acre, which
has been quite he making of them.—Punch.
HINT TO SCOLDING WIVES.—" And I dare say you
have scolded your wife very often, Newman," said I,
once. Old Newman looked down, and the wife took up
the reply. " Never to signify—and if he has I deserved
it." " And, I dare say, if the truth were told, you have
scolded him quite as often." " Nay," said the old wo-
man, with la beauty of kindness which all the poetry in
the world cannot excel, " how can a wife scold her good
man who has been working for her and her little ones all
the day ? It may be for a man to be peevish, for it is he
who bears the crosses of the world ; but who should make
him forget them but his wife. And she bad best for her
own sake—for nobody can scold much wLen the scolding
is all on one side.—Belwer'u Stoden►.
