friend who loves you-who has studied
your interest and happiness-be sure to
sustain him in adversely. Let him feel
that his former kindness is appreciated
and that his love was not thrown away.
Real fidelity may be rare, but il exists ii

its power? They only deny its worth
and power, who have never loved d friend
or bored TO make another happy. TIE

A Persian poet gives the following in
struction as to how men should treat wo-
men when thou art married, seek to
please thy wife, but listen not TO all she
says. From mans right side rib was
taken to form the woman, and never was
there seen rib quite straight. 1t breaks
but bends not. Since, then, it is plain,
that crooked is woman's temper, forgive
her faults, and blame her not; nor let her
anger thee, nor correction use, as it is
vain to straighten what is crooked.

has blossomed-our fields produce their
abundance, for the comfort and luxury of
the inhabitants-with asurplus for which
it is essential TO the rosperily of the
country that market should be provi-

whose labor furnishes our supplies, must
in return lie the consumers, and subsist
on the productions of the country. The

deserve encouragement. But strange is
the truth, that over three fourths, or

A HEARTLESS HUSBAND.

Thomas Thompson, doer Of deeds OF
blood--a butchcr--was yesterday sum
moned before the Recorder, at the in
stance Of his better half, who, if he is to
be believed, is no better than she ought
to be. Mr. Thompson was fat man,
with round shiny face, redolent Of rare
steaks and bottled porter. Mrs. I. was
lean and altenuated-lilterally a spare
RIB.
"Well, Mrs. Thompson,' said The Re
corder, "what is the complaint which you
have to prefer against your husband :"
Here the butcher rubbed his hand over
his glossy forehead and looked inquiring-
ily at the Recorder, and vacanlly at his
wife, as much as TO say, "now for it,
"Why, your Honor" said Mrs. Thomp-
son, and she threw back her green veil
and famed herself with her pocket hand
kcrchief as she spoke-''Why, your hon
or, his conduct is such that to sensi.
tive being Of my kind it is the blight and
mildew OF my domestic happiness-the
frost that vithers the flower OF my felic-
ity."
Here Mr.. Thompson gave expression
to note Of admiration by silent whis-
tie, adding "now she is in for it!-now
she is coming the sentimental"
The Recorder-addressing Mrs Thomp-
son-;sWlth what particular act or in
stance Of i'll treatment do you charge
him?"
Mrs. Thompson-Why, your Honor,
his unkindness is rather of negative
than of an affirmative character. He has
no soul--no sentiment. He can appreci-
ate neither the sublime nor the beautiful.
| am myself creature of sentlment-of
heart-I am all heart. What, sir, but
this ETHEREAL property Of our nature, ele-
Yates US above more ignob!e beings, and
places US in communion with all that is
bright and beautlsul-wtht the finest Gre
alton of the poets fancy, as well as with
natures sublimest productions-Oh sir''
Recorder, Madam, you must permit
me TO interrupt you. While | greatly
admire your elegan. pathos, ! do not see
what possible connection itbas with any
charge you may have TO pteferiagainst
