ed his connexion with the family as board

as usual.
The husband now thought that to retain
his wife, il was of no avail to act longer on
the defensive merely so lie applied to a
counsellor to put him in way 10 act often

cure a warrant and have the fellow imprison-
ed With this he complied, aud Hall sud-
denly found himself boarding with our ex-
celeni jailor, George Wellington, Esq. but
our carpenters wife was NOT at all satisfied
with this plan, and succeeded in prevailing
on her husband 20 consent no, only to have
Hall released, on condition that he would
leave the country, but also that she might 0c-
company him
Hall was imprisoned on Saturday,-The
next Monday he was on board the Charter
Oak, with the carpenters wife, who accom-
panied him to Boston. There he left her.
Finding herself pennyless, and without
friends, she took the boat again and arrived
in this city last Saturday, having been alb
sent less than a week The husband receiv-
ed her again as virtuous and afIectionate
wife, and probably will spend with her many
happy days.

wife to Hall--and that she was insane before
she was married Whether these things are

A QUEER AFFAIR.

These Dlue-noses appear to have way
with them which is very captivating with
the women. Capt Tod, of ST John, is not
the only one who has violated the rights OF
hospitality, and brought dishonor upon fam
lilies hitherto respectable. Another case has
occurred recently which should be noticed.
A carpenter, whose name tits not neces-
sary to mention, not long since resided in
the vicinity of Houlton, with his wife and
several children. During his residence there
a Provincial, by the name Of George E Hall
became boarder in his family. Finding
the carpenter an unsuspecting man. he ex'
erted himself to gain the affections of the
wife, and eventually succeeded She in
formed her husband Of this, and further that
she could no longer love him. The husband
then endeavored to get rid Of Hall; but as
he was stout clustering fellow, and himself
timid man, he did not dare TO turn him
out Of the house. So he reasoned with his
wife about The matter, and obtained her CON
sent TO have nothing more 10 do with Hall
If he would remove to Bangor. He then
made arrangements and removed his family
to this place. Blu, Hall, it seems, did no,

well, well, said the doctor, I'm very
well satisfied, and l see no reason why you
should be otherwise So saying, he was in
the act Of spreading out the neckclotb, to
examine its dimensions, when 10 i hundred
dollar note dropped upon the floor
If by the touch Of magic wand, the
doctor had converted the cambria into silk
en- sash, the surprise of his wife could not
have exceeded what she now felt. She
knew not what first to say. No time was
lost, however, in re-obtaining the gloves I;
and if her surprise was great before, il was
in no degree diminished when ten dollar
note was discovered snugly stuffed away in

WHAT O'CLOCK is 1T T.

When | was young lad, my father cali
ed me to him, that he might teach me what
o'clock it was. He told me the use of the
minute finger and the hour hand, and des-
cribed to me the figures on the dial plate,
until was pretty perfect in my part.
No sooner was quite master Of this addi-
iional knowledge than set off scampering
to Join my companions at game of mar
bIes but my father called me back again
"Stop Humphrey, said he, 81 have some
thing else to tell you"
Back again | went, wondering what else
had got to learn, for thought that knew
all about the clock quite as well as my ia
ther did.
Humphrey, said he, II have taught you
the time Of the day; l must now teach you
to find the time of your life"
All this was strange TO me: so / waited
rather impatiently to hear how my father
would explain il; for wanted sadly 10 go 10
my marbles.
The Bible said he, describes the years
Of man to be threescore years. Now life is
uncertain, and you may not live day long
er: but if we divide the fourscore years Of
an old mans life into twelve parts, like the

years for every figure. When boy is seven
years old, then it is one o'clock Should il
please God thus TO spare your life, looking
al the clock may perhaps remind you of it
My great grandfather, according to this cal
culation, died at twelve o'clock my grand
father at eleven, and my father at ten. Al
what hour you and shall die, Humphrey
is only known TO Him to whom all thing,
are known
Never since then have heard the inqui
ry. what O'Clock is il = nor do think tina
| have even looked at the face of clock
without being reminded of the words of m.
father.
know not, reader, what O'Clock it i
with you, but know very well what time
is with myself; and that if mean to d
any thing in this world which hitherto hav
neglected, it is high time TO set about il
The words of my father have given solem
nifty TO the dial plate of clock, which
never would, perhaps, have possessed in m
estimation, il these words had no, been spo
ken.
Look about you, reader, and then as
yourself what o'clock it is with you.

death being rainy, he went TO the clubhouse

DIG DEEP AND YOU'LL FIND TREASURE
We commend the following anecdoie 10
the particular consideration of those who
are yet addicted 10 the practice of shallow
blowing, and who think that no good comes
from deep stirring OF the soil. BY adopting
the practice of deep blowing, new source
of wealth would be opened on many farms,
which the "skinning," culture Of century
or two had never developed. But 10 the
anecdote-which, though old, is Just as
good as if it were bran new" -
"An old farmer, on his death-bed, told
his sons who were not very industrious lads,
that he had deeply buried his money in
particular field, which was the most barren
land on his farm. In consequence Of this
information, soon after the old mans death,
the sons began to dig, [aud they dug deeply
too all over the field-and this they did
again and again, for it was long before they
quite despaired of finding the money. Az
length however they gave up the the search,
and the land was planted with corn; when
from the deep digging. pulverization and
clearing which it had received in the search
for the money, it produced crop which
was indeed a treasure
1t might result to the profit of some Of
our farmers sons, should they imagine their
fathers had deeply buried bag of dollars
in some barren field, aud led to dig in search
of the treasure--and though they might NOT
find the expected wealth, their exer,ions
would be amply rewarded, as is illustrated
in the anecdote. e. Fdrmtr.
