Her woods, her fields in loveliness arrayed;'

THE ALARM WATCH.


A lady, who found it difficult to awake SO early
as she wished in the morning, purchased an alarm
watch. These watches are so contrived as to strike
with very loud, whirring noise, at any hour the
owner pleases to act them. 1t. s.,s. o.. -
The lady placed her watch at the head of the
bed, and, at the appointed time, she found herself
efectually reused by the long, rafting sound She
Immediately obeyed the summons. and felt better

several weeks. The alarm watch faithfully per-
formed its office, and was distinctly hear, so long
as it was promptly Obeyed. But after time, the
lady grew tired of early rising and when she was
walked by the noisy monitor, she merely turned her.
self, and slept again. In few days, the watch
ceased to arouse her from slumber. 1t spoke just
as loudly as ever but shedid not hear it, because
she had acquired the habit Of disotcytng it. Find
ing that she might just as well be without an alarm
watch she formed the wise resolution, that If she
ever heard the sound again, she would jump up in
stantly and that she never more would allow her
self to disobey the friendly warning. -t.. f'r...
Just so it is with conscience. If we disobey its

Lean Year.-The editor Of the Temperance
Herald, published at Camden, s. c., on the first
day of its appearance. announced to its fair readers
that the present being leap year. conferred upon
them certain privileges amongst which was that of
paving their addresses to the complementary OF
whom, should he be so ungracious and ungallant as
not to receive them favorahly, forfeited his horse
and watch. The paper had been issued but few
hours when Miss Lydia Green entered the Office.
made proposals to the astonshed editor, and de-
manded his hand or the forfeit. He freely relin-
pushed his gray horse and patent lever, rather
than relinqush the right of making selection for
himself, whilst the lady appeared equally we'll
pleased with her bargain. ...
REMARK ABLE CAsE.-An odd relationship
was lately formed by pair of nuptials extraordina
~, in Camden, North Carolina. A widower who
was not very Young, became smitten by beautiful
girl, and married her. A short time after, the son
Of this man by a former wife, became also in love,
not with younger person but with the mother Of the
fathers new wife, widow lady still in the bloom Of
life He offered himself. and soon the young man
and the widow were united in the bonds Of matri-
mony; SO that in consequence of these two connec-
lions, a father became the son-in-law of his own
son, and the wife not only the daughter-in-law Of
her own son-in-law, but still more, the mother-in-
law of her own mother, who IS herself the daugh-
ter-in-law Of her own daughter, while the husband
of the latter is the fatherin-law Of his motherin-
law. and father-in- law Of his own father
