Unable to speak her thanks, bu. grasp
ing the COLO in her hand, with nervous
enacity, the bewildered woman was led
out of the room by the hand of the sympa-
thising Mrs. Chesterfield; and whenNshe
found herself again in the road, it was
with the addition of a we'll filled basket of
wine and provisions. Casting her dim

Bachelors and Married Men.

Some individual w h undoubtedly
speaks from '.sad and bitter experience"
and who, al all events, pretends to know
exactly show many blue beans make five"
gives the following episode on married
men, bachelors, love, matrimony and mad
ness. We commend it TO The perusal of
our readers:
Bachelors are styled by married me n
half perfected beings,' "cheerless vaga-
bonds,'' shut half a pair of shears"
and many other cutting titles are given
them, while on the other hand, they ex-
tol their own state as one of such per-
feet BLISS, that change from earth to Hea-
ven would be somewhat of a doubtful
good.
If they are SO happy, why in time don't
they enjoy their happiness and hold their
tong CUES about ii? What do half the men
who get married, get married for! Simply
that they may have somebody to darn
their stockings, sew buttons on their shirts
and lick the babies-that they may have
somebody, as a married man once said, 10
..pulI off their boots when they get little
balmy." Then these fellows are always

An Awkward Mistake.

A correspondent of the Herald of Reli-
gious Liberty tells story about an inscrip-
ton on the facade of church, recently
built, which was intended to be as follows:
my house shall be called the house of
prayer"
TO insure accuracy, the stone cutter was
referred to the verse of Scripture in which
these words occur. The workman how
ever, unfortunately transcribed the whole
of it, thus; "My house shall be called the
house of prayer, bit ye hare made it u
den of tkieuesp' When the error was
discovered an attempt was made TO rectify
1t, by filling up the prints of the obnoxious
letters with red putty. This remedy,
however, proved worse than the mischief;
for at distance which made the first of
the inscription illegible, stood out in blush
ing hues, the omnious sentence s'Ye have
made it a den OF thieves" Finally the
scandal was removed by turning the in
scribed face inward, and lettering the
new outward surface according to the first
intention.

Fni0ymentS.

The following paragraph is taken from
Pauldmg's new novel; The Puritan and
his daughter"
Those enjoyments which neither in
iure'ourselves, interfere with the happi
ness of others, or violate the laws and de-
corum of society, are in fact themselves
most effectual barriers against the Indul-
nence ofthose criminal propensties which
at one and the same time, undermine our
own happiness and destroy that of others.
Give TO mankind innocent amusement,
and they viii be far less likely TO seek
for guilty pleasures. But 1t will genera
lily be found that those VINO whst their
appetites by vigorously abstaining from
one enjoy ment, are the most voracious
in The qualification OF o, hers; and ne who
rails most loudly at the ninety -nire innoF
cent pleasures of life, most commonly Sc
lects the huudrett as an exception, and
converts il into a vice By excess &c ,nd VI
gence."

The Rfspcctability of Labor.

There is a vast amount of foolish discus
sion. and false sentiment, in regard to this
subject. Every pursuit of industry that
is honest. and promotive of human WELL
being, is respectable, honorable and dig
nifed. The chimney-sweepe is only
vulgar when he sinks below and demeans
his toll. Let him pursue his work ear
nestly and steadily, and he is entitled to
as much respect as the telescope maker.
The profession of lahor has no essential
merit in itself, beyond being more or less
productive;-the merit belongs entirely to
the manner of its pursuit. Labor with the
slave, is neither pleasure nor virtue,
no matter what his occupation, for i: is
forced from him; before pleasure or virtue
can be attached, labor must be sought or
chosen. Then it has value and dignity
in proportion TO lis honesty and the char
acter of its products.
Some pride themselves upon living
above and Independent, of labor, scorning
all its pursuits as low and ignoble. Such
are drones who eat what they do not earn,
and il is sufficient punishment Tor them
that they can see nothing in their desire
or destiny, but an utter antipode to the
generally revealed character of God and
man. Others pride themselves upon the
exclusiveness or aristocracy of profess
sion, as though honor or dignity came TO
labor from isolation instead OF usefulness.
These would call labor honorable in pro-
portion as they could handle it without
soiling their gloves. 1t is hard 10 say
which of the two is the most vulgar-he
who decries and scorns all labor that is
soiling-all common every day toil-or
he who values labor only as begrimed
with dirt, and turns up his nose at the
man who works with hands or face clean
er than his own. Both are immensely
vulgar, and both win have 10 learn much
before they truly understand matters.

Woolen Printing-.q Great Improve

Wooiea Printing! Great Improve
nent.-Messrs Holt &; BrIerly. of Low
ell, have now in successful operation a
new improvement, of their own discovery.
which promises to yield rich reward.
1t IS the printing of goods, in any style OF
stripe or figure that may be desired. and
in perfectly fast colors, such as will stand
the test of thorough washing. Mr.. Thorn
as BrierIy is the original inventor and
discoverer of this process of printing. and
has it secured by patent. The colors
are of fsuperior brilliancy. and the style of
goods is universally admired. For lin
ings OF ladies' and gentlemen's cioaks
and coats, we predict that these goods will
soon become all the rage. For children's
clothing, too. they are so much prettier
than any thing In the marke. that they
can hardly fail of a great ruu.-Worce7-

There is a story extant of young wag
who was once invited TO dine with an old
gentleman of rather sudden temper. The
dining room was on the second floor, and
the principal dish was fine roast ham,
When the old gentleman undertook TO
carve it, he found the knife rather dull.
and in sudden passion flung II down
stairs after the servant, who had Just
brough, il. Whereupon the young man
seized the ham, and with admirable dex-
