MORE TRoUBLE.-The philosophers. we
believe, have not determined whether John
Rodgers (the Martyr of Smith6ed) wife
had nine or ten children, on account of
the ambiguity of the language of the
Primer, stating: s'she had nine children
and one al the breast"
The following case taken from the New
Orleans Tropic, we predict will be, if it be
left to posterity to be settled, little less
difficult, than the one before cited:
We would like to know whether it is to
be understood that the men alluded 10 in
the following paragraph have had thirteen
sCires each, or only thirteen betveen then?
The Derby, England, Mercury says
that there are at the present time four in
dividuals, whose residence are within fifty
yards of each other, at Bingham. who
have been united in wedlock thirteen times
and have consequently had thirteen wives
-an occurrence rarely to be net with ID
small market town, with population 81
only about 1000 inhabitants.

Her name was Lucy Neal.
Oh, poor Lucy Neal!
Oh, poor Lucy Neal!
If I had her by my side,
How happy would feel!
She used to go out with us,
To pick cotton in the field,
And there's where I first fell in love,
With my sweet Lucy Neal.
Oh, poor Lucy Neal!-
My master he did sell me,
Because he thought I'd steal,
That caused separation,
From my dear Lucy Neal.

DEPENDENCE UPON THE North. - A
writer IN the Augusta Chronicle aud Sen
tinel, speaking of the dependence of the
South upon the North for many of the ne
.cessaries and comforts Of life, thus graph
cally sums up the various items of our
Indebtedness. 1t is startling account,
but true as gospel:
They build our houses, they adorn
them with furniture, and supply them with
every comfort and convenience of which
we have ever conjectured They educate
our children, and cover our nakedness
from head to foot, with hats and shoes,
coats and shirts. We eat their -four, their
cheese, butter, apples. Goldfish, potatoes,
pickles, pork and onions-we feed our
cattle with their hay, drive their horses
in their harness to their carriages, with
their whips--we walk with their sticks,
ride on their saddles, write on their paper,
wash with their soap, scrub with their
brushes, sweep with their brooms, milk in
their pals, cook 10 their pots, strike with
their hammers, blow with their bellows
cut with their axes, SOW with their seed
reap with their hooks, pull with their lea
Their, whitewash with their lime, paint with
their paint, march by their tunes, read by
their lights, drink their whiskey and rum
smoke their segars-and last and best o
all these blessings, we marry their pretty
girls, who make the best of wives"

A young married couple riding home
from church, on a rainy day, the husband
looked up, and perceiving the clouds were
breaking away, said, Il hope we shall

THE GIRLs.-The editor of the Port
land Express, in discoursing upon early
rising, speaks thus:
Up with you! Don't sleep away the
morning! Mary, Helen. Elizabeth, Lou
lisa, Lucretia, Margaret, Harriet, Charlotte,
Julia, Sarah, Fanny, Kate, Susan, Jane,
Caroline, Adeline, Amelia! and all the
lazy girls, arouse-wake up rise up and
see the sun shine, and brush away the
dew from the beautiful grass. You not
only lose the best portion of the day, while
you linger in bed, but you depress your
spirits, and contracts sluggish habits. -
What if you are sleepyg Jump out of
bed-stir about, and in few moments
you will be as bright as larks. We would
not give straw for girls that won't get
up early in the morning. What are they
good fort Lazy, dumpish creatures
they are not fit for wives or companions.
Our advice to young men who are looking
out Tor wives, would be-never select a
female who dozes away the precious
morning hours. She may be help.ea
but never help-meet."

A man killing hogs, became vexed, and
venting his spleen, wished they were in

INVISIBLE wRIrINe.-The plan of wri.
ting with rice water, to be rendered visible
by the application Of Iodine, was pracsiced
with great success in the correspondence
with Jellalabad. The first letter Of this
kind received from thence was Concealed
in quilt. On opening it a small niece Of
paper was unfolded, on which appeared
only single word " Iodine" The magic
liquid was applied, anda interesting des-
patch from Sir Robi. Sale stood forth.

LONDON FASHIONS FOR MAY. - The
great novelty of the season for silk dress
es are those in pyramidal and transversal
stripes, frequently shaded on each side the
stripe till the color blends with that Of the
ground; there is also new style of check,
of a different texture where the check is
formed. Bareges of new designs, taf.
fetas foulards de Chine in wide checks
like riband, moire, balzorines. &c. are all
now in demand. Dark colors prevail in
all new materials, and those Of silk are
|as yet most fashionable. The forms do
not vary. The demi puriiaine, and very
high bodies, hnt open en- c9ur, shouior
the chemisette, or guimpe, are the prevail
ing styles; some are with revers or rolling
collars; gimp, fringe, and lace form the
usual trimmings.
The newest trimming is with fringed
ribands la Ninon, placed apart, rising
half way up the skirt in gradual shades.
Black mantelets will still be worn, trimmed
with double row of lace; they are round
ed behind and reach very low, with scarf
ends in front; some also are made of lace
or imitation, and trimmed with fringed RI
band. Scarss of embroidered muslin are
finished with lace, and the manteIets do
varlere have broad frilIs of muslin fes-
tooAs. Scarfs of the Arab or Algerine
slyle are also fashionable, with wide
stripes of different colors; they are usual
ly d very thick soft silk.
Collars are worn quite high to the
throat with plain guimpe, if the dress is
high, but embroidered guimpe for low
dress; the embroidery on collars is very
delicate; points d'armes and plemetis in.
termixed and trimmed with lace. Can.
nezous will be much worn this spring
they are generally pointed behind witt
two or three rows of work. For pailles
de ris, leghorns, and all fancy bonnets o
gauze or Grape, beautiful flowers are used
but for the inside, coques of riband ART
preferred, sometimes delicate foliage il
used. Wells and voileltes appear iLdis
pensable, varying according TO the degre;
of elegance required.
The principal novelty are the gauze lis
lsee or Grape bonneis, in three shades O
thI same color: open straws are lined witt
pix or paille Grape, silk, or riband, an,
ornamented with foliage; the forms are ra
taer more spfa4d from me cheeks. Ri
bands of several shades of the same colo
are much worn on cape as well as bonnets

A POOR EXCUSE.

The Knickerbocker furnishes the follow
ng sPoetical EpistIe" from J. G.. S., to a
'achelor friend. urging him to enter at once
nto the connubial state; he thinks it the
'sovereign'st thing in creation"
Don't tell me you haven't got time,'
That other things claim your attention;
There's not the least reason or rhyme
In the wisest excuse you can mention;
Don't tell me about sother fish,
Your duty is done when you bny 'em;
And you will never relish the dish,
Unless you've woman to 'fry 'em.'
You may dream of peetical fame,
But the story may chance to miscarry;
The best way Of sending ones name
To posterity, Charles, is to marry.
And here am willing to own
(After soberly thinking upon it,
I'd very much rather be known
Through beautiful son, than sonnet.
Don't be frightened at querulous stories
By gessipping grumblers related,
Who argue that marriage bore is,
Because they've known people mismated.
Such fellows, if they had their pleasure,
Because some bad bargains are Lnade
Would propose as sensible measure,
TO lay an embargo on trade!
Then, Charles, bid your doubling good by,
And dismiss all fantastic alarms;
I'll be sworn you've girl in your eye
Thaty you ought to have had in your arms
Some beautiful maiden, God bless heri
Unencumbered with pride or with pelf,
Of every true charm the possessor,
And given to no fault but yourself.
To procrastnation be deaf.
A caution which came from above,)
The scoundrel's not only 'the Thief
OF time,' but of Beauty and Love.
Then delay not moment to win
A prize that is truly worth winning;
Celibacy, Charles, is a sin,
And sadly prolific of SHINING!
| could give you bushel Of reasons
For choosing the double estate;'
It agrees with all climates and seasons,
Though il may be adopted TOO LArK.
To ones parents tits Gratefully due:
Just think what terrible thing
'Twould have been sir, for me and for you,
If ours had neglected the ring
Then there'sthe economy Iclrar
By poetical algebra shownD
If your wife has 'grief' or a 'fear,'
One half, by the law, is your own.
And as to the joys by division
They somehow are doubled. tits said;
CThough never COULD see the addition)
Quite plain in the item Of bread
Remember do not pretend
There's any thing perfect about it,
But this I'll maintain to the end,
LIES very Imperfect without it.
IT'S not that there's spoetry' in it,
As doubtless there may be to those
Who know how to find and to spin it,
But I'll warrant you excellent prose-
DON'T search for an 'anger minute,
For suppose you succeed in the sequel,
After all, the deuce would be in it,
For the match would be highly unequal.
The angels, it must be confessed.
In this world are rather uncommon,
And allow me, dear Charles, to suggest,
You'll be better content with WOMAN.
Then, Charles, be persuaded to wed
For sensible fellow like you,
1t is high time to think of bed
And board. and 'Hxins' for two.
Don't think about something else first,
poet almost Sin the sere!
A sMajorn-AND NOT MARRIED YET!
You should do nothing else for year!

Avoid a person that's all jaw. Re-
member, the more a person talks the less
he knows. It's your lean geese that's
always cackIing-not the fat ones. Re-
collect this, and avoid men that have the
"gift Of CAB" as you would those that had
the Gift of measles.

TIE FooD OF MAN. The Genesee
Farmer gives this brief summary of the
native countries of our most familiar
plants:--The potatoe is native of South
America, and is still found wild in Chill,
Peru, and Monte Video. In its native
state the root is small and bitter. The
first mention of it by European writer's is
In 1888. 1t is now spread over the world.
Wheat and rye originated in Tartary and
Siberia, where they are still Indigenous.
The only country where the oat is found
wild, is in Abyssinia, and thence may be
considered native. Maize or Indian
corn, is a native of Mexico, and was I'M
known in Europe until after the discove-

is native OF South Sea Islands, particu-
larly Otaheite. Tea is found native no
where except in China and Japan, from
which country the world is supplied. The
cocoa nut is a native of most equinoctial
countries, and is one of the most valuable
trees, as food, clothing, and shelter are
afforded by it. Coffee is native of Ara

East and West Indies. The Rest coffee is
brought from Mocha, in Arabia, whence
about fourteen millions of pounds are an

yearly. All the varieties of the apple are
derived from the crab apple, which is
found native in most parts of the world.
