Good Breeding.- following anecdotc is related by Mir. Walker, III his amusing and instructive publication, '.'Fhe Original,' as aflording a fine instance of the value of good breeding or politeness, even in circumstances where 1t could not be expected to produce any personal advantage :-
 An Englishman making the grand tour ] toward the middle of the last century, when travellers were more objects of attention than at present, on arriving at Turin, sauntered out to see the place. He happened to meet a regiment of infantry returning from parade. and taking position to see 1t pass, young captain, evidently desirous to make display before the stranger, in crossing one of the numerous water courses with which the city is intersected, missed his footing, and in try ing to save himself, lost his hat The exhi- bition was truly unfortunate; the spectators laughed, and looked at the EngIishman, ex- pectlng him to laugh too. On the contrary. he not only retained his composure, but promptly advanced to where his hat had roll cd, and taking 1t up, presented it, with unaf- tected kindness, to its confused owner The officer received 1t with a blush of surprise and gratitude, and hurried to rejoin his company. There was murmar of applause, and the stranger passed on.
 "Though the scene of moment, and without word spoken, it touched every heart-not with admiration for mere dis play of politeness, but with a warmer feeling for proof of that true character which nev CT falleth.' On the regiment being dismiss cd, the captain, who was a young man of consideration, in glowing terms related the circumstances the colonel. The colonel immediately mentioned 1t to the general in command and when the Englishman return ed 10 his hotel, an aid-de-camp waited to request hls company to dinner at head-quar- ters. In the evening he was carried 10 court at that time, as Lord Chesterfield tells us, the most brilliant court in Europe-and was received with particular attention. Of course, during his stay at Turin, he was invited ev- cry where and on his departure he was load ed with letters of introduction to the differ eni States in itaiy. Thus private gentle man, ot moderate means, by graceful im- pulse of Christian feeling, was enabled to travel through foreign country, then of the highest interest for its society, as well as for the charms 1t still possesses, with more real distinction and advantage, than if he were possessed of millions, and deficient in good breeding"

THREE STAGES OF WoMAN'S LOVE.

THREE STAGES OF NoMANS LOVE. There is love in carly life, Which shuns parade and worldly strife, And seeks, condemned the princely dome, In humble cot, a happy home, More gorgeous than the ponp of kings, The coral and the pearl it brings, And all the glory of the skies, In living diamonds--beaming eyes, The roses bloom it yields to view, And lends its fragrance with it's hue; Tie gladdening smile. the bailnv Kiss, With looks of iondness, thoughts of hlss, Feelings that scarce know worldly leaven, And dreams of eestaey and heaven, Lite's dull anxieties above; Such. such is woman's early love There is love of elder growth, Less dazzling than the love of youth, Where gentle looks and anxious care Aspire the husband toi to share; Which seeks its Solace and employ, Providing for her children, joy; Which owns no happiness complete, -Till they are healthy, clean and neal; Which strives to spare the humble store, And make that little something more; Love, which, the frugal table spread, \ blessing brcathcs on daily bread; Which, scorning iinery and pride, Exults in comforts seii-denled; And teaches man 'tis vain 10 roam For pleasure to compare with home: This calms as that the heart could move; And th:s is woman's noon-day love. There is love in later stage, N hen pain and sickness grow on age; N hen he, so active once, and gay, Perceives approach his closing day N hen falling strength and tottering limb, And sunken cheek, and eye grown dim, And faltering voice and visage wan, Have to spectre changed the man; Then, love, by the fond wife possessed, Too vast, too grand, to be expressed, Delights assiduously to ply, And soothes with tender sympathy; Consoles the mourncr for the past, And iondly soothes him to the last. This love, in hours the most iorlorn, Surpasses that of youths bright morn; Different from that which marked lite's prim Though moi so brilliant, more sublime; This love. from Heaven derived its birth, Confcsses no alloy of earth; II lifts the sufferer from his wo, Above the care of things below, And points to brighter scenes above And this Is woman's final love.
