HUMORO GUS SCRAPS.

POWERFUL. REAsoNlNG.-At young
mems debating society somewhere in
Indiana, the question for discussion
was (Which is the greatest evil, scol-
ding wife or smokey chimney" After
the appointed disputants had conclud-
ed the debate, spectator rose and beg
ged the privilege Of making a few re-
marks on the occasion" Permission
being granted, he delivered himself in
this way "Mr. President, pve been al
most mad a listening to the debate of
these 'ere youngsters. They don't
know nothing at all about the subject.
What do they know about the evils of
a scolding wife. Wait till they have
had one for twenty years, and been
hammed, and damned and slammed all
the while, and wait till they've been
scolded because the baby cried, because
the fire wouldn't burn, because the
oven was too hot, because the COW
kicked over the milk, because it rained,
because the sun shined, because the
hens didn't lay, because the butter
wouldn't come, because the old cat had
llttens, because they came too soon for
dinner, because they were one minute
too late, because they sung, because
they tore their trowsers, because they
invited neighbor woman to call again,
because they got sick, or because they
did anything else, no matter whether
ahey couldn't help it or not, before they
talk about the evils Of scolding wife
why, MIR. President, I'd rather hear the
,clatter ofhammers and stones and TWEEN
~ tin pans and nine brass kettles, than
the din, din, din, of the tongue of a
:scolding wife. Yes, stree, woald. TO
my nrind, MIR. President, smokey
chimney is no more to be compared to
a scolding wife, than little negro is to

TITS BETTER NOT TO KNOW.

TITS BETTER NOT TO KNOW.
BY SAMUEL LOVER.
You say you love me-can trust
That she, by many wood,
BY me at length, has had her heart
To consistency subdued?
Perchance some other love is there,
But do not tell me so;
Since knowledge would but bring me grief,
Ills better not 10 know.
Perchsnce that eye has beamed with love,
In days knew not thee,
That ruby lip hath bent in smiles
For others than for me;
But let tina, lip still, silence keep,
III trust its love like show;
Since knowledge would but bring ne grief,
'Tis better not 10 know.
Oh! what simple fondness mine,
Whose wishes make its creed;
Blu, let me think you love me still,
And III be best indeed!
'Tis better that the eye meier see,
Than that its tears should flow;
when knowledge would but bring us grief,
'Tis better not to know.
