retreat. in a warm day, cannot be imagIn-

than two miles without an openlng) on
pleasant Sunday afternoon. when thou
sandsands Of persons were enjoying It's
graceful shade. Families come here with
their children, bringing their repast with
them. to be eaten upon the grass under
the trees. The forest is interspersed with
roads and walks, in which people lose
themselves. and wander for hours without
making their way out Of the woods. This
is the BlanGensburg' Of Paris. All the

LOVE AND PRIDE.-A writer makes
the following sensible and judicious re.
marks, which we commend to the atten-
ton Of those for whom they are intended !:
"Many q man has seen his choice for
partner in life, in the humble gnl, far be-
meath him in the opinion OF the world,
and although love and pride might have
struggled with him lor while, yet pride
triumphed and he sought one from the
higher walks of life. In all the vlclssl.
tudes of social existence nothing can be
capable Of INJECTING more certain misery
than is sure to follow such course. 1t
dsracts the general harmony OF our days,
misshapes our ends, shortens the length OF
life, lessons the stature of manhood, and
IS contrary to the divine Instructions oil
the Bible, for it declares that where love
is, there is peace, plenty and ;hrlitness.
Every thing good is sure TO follow hap
ny union. LIT nol PRIDE rl''e IN this

treated with contemp. the claims ofJas.
K. Polk to be nominated as Vice oresi-

ly pocke,ed insults, was a coward, had
no reputation, and wound up by calling
him the "posihumous candidate" who was
thrust forward at the eleventh hour in
competition with much better and more
available men. The title Posthumous
Candidate, appears to US TO be not an ia
appropriate one. - Cincinnati Atlas.

SWALLOWING THE Sailors
are proverbially grumblers and even
when well treated are very apt to find
fault. Their provisions, good or bad,
and sometimes they are bad enough in all
conscience, furnish an everlasting subject
of complaint; they are never so good as
they were "ast voyge." We lately met
with an anecdote of Judge Peters, OF
Philadelphia, having a bearing on this
subject, which is too good to be lost.
Complaint was made to the Judge in
behalf Of the crew of vessel who had
made voyage to some port in Russia
tha, they had been furnished with bad pro-
visions. While the counsel for the sea.
men was arguing the cause, one of them
stepped forward and, drawing from his
pocket piece Of bread, the color of brown
soap, presented it to his honor as a speci-
men of their fare. To persons accusiom.
ed to fine wheaton loavea it appeared dis.
gushing indeed, and the bystanders, one
and all, cried shame to fill mems stoma his
with such unwholesome aliment. The
Judge applied the bread to his nose, and
finding nothing in it offensive 10 MS olfac.
tory nerves, was tempted 10 taste it: he
nlbbled a little piece, it tasted well, and
he took large bite. The counsel pro.
ceeded at much length, though the din
ner hour was fast approaching, and, as
he rounded the periods, the Judge nib
bled around the black buiscut until no
more rtmaned. at this moment the sal.
or stepped up, and with countenance in
which was depicted real distress, said.
"why you have eaten my best witness. "
Eyes, (said the lawyer,) have been re-.
mark ng that the Judge has been sValto'c-
ing the evidence as well as the taW. =
"Never mind, (replied his honor, as il
awakened from dream,) | am the better
able TO digest your cause" So saying
he rose, and, ordering the libel to be dis
missed, went home to his dinner.-Bos-
