rent, to keep us comfortable until some OF
my bills become due
That afternoon the sofa was sent, and on
the next afternoon Florence went to the auc-
tioneer's to receive the money for it.
Have you sold that sofa yet, sirl asked
the timid girl, in low, hesitatng voice.
What sofa, Missl asked the clerk look
4 ing steadily in her face, with bold Stare.
'The sofa sent by Mrs. SIR
when was it to have been sold?'
Yesterday, sir
ooh, we havn't got the bill made out yet.
You can call the day after tomorrow, and
we'll settle it for you
Cant you settle it to day, siri We want
the money. particularly
Without replying to the timid girls re-
quest, the clerk commenced throwing over
the leaves of the account book, and in few
minutes had taken off the bill of the sofa.
Here it is-eighteen dollars and sixty
cents. See if it's tight, and then sign this
receipt
Amt you mistaken, sirl 1t was beaut-
ful sofa, and cost one hundred and forty dol
lars
That's all it brought, Miss, assure you.
Furniture sells very badly, now
Florence rolled up the bills that were CIV
en- her, and returned home with a heavy
heart.
1T only brought eighteen dollars ard six
ty cents. ma she said throwing the no es in
TO her mothers lap, and bursting into tears.
Heaven only knows, then what we really
shall do said the widow, clasping her hands
together and looking upwards.
There are always two parties in the case
o: ba'gains-the gamer aud the looser, and
while the one is delighted with the advan-
tage he has obtained ne thinks nothing of
the necessities which have forced the other
party to accept the highest offer, But few
buyers of bargains think or care about taking
this view of the subject.

Jews and the Cholera,

The st. Louis Organ states that during
the last two visiat'oDs of cholera in -. Lou
is, we were particularly struck. in reading
the returns Of burials 10 the different ceme.
tres, with the Comparatively small number Of
internenIs al the United Hebrew ceneiTy-
the burial ground OF the Jews in this CIV. -
Our opinIGu was that the immunity uI mat
people was tracable To their not using pork,
as well as To the regularity of their habits
generally. Nor were apptstd that ia other
towns visited by cholera, The Jews had co
JOyed an exemption from lhe disease, IL pos
sIble, more marked than was obso vable here.
1t seems, however in London. during the
prevalence Of the scOuige, the newspapers
directed public attention to a like exemption
OF the Jews IN that CITY, which, a, the time,
however, WAS treated as an idle ruinur, and
repeatedly contradIcted.'
"A repOu recently made By the London
Board of Health, for the information of
committee OF the House of Commnns, fully
confirms the rnmors referred tn, that out of
population Of more than twenty thousand
Jews, and two thousand Portuguese, Only
thirteen cases Of cholera occurred, llct
that II appears had been noticed in be epi
denlic Of / 632.
One Of the London Commissioners thus
accounts for the immunity of this race from
the disease:
"l have had during the lest twenty years
much intercourse with The Jews, and can.
not recall to mind a single instance of drunk
enness 10 any family have visited ln vr-
tue Of the religion, they are peculiar 10 their
food All shell fish Is avoided, aud the meat
exposed for sale is inspected by an officer
appointed for the purpose, and fsuy disease
is found. IL is condemned. Sabbath rest, is
for the most part, strictly observed The
Jews are unable, from religious motives TO
enter the work house, aud the poor beiog
comparatively few in number, are relieved
by the more wealthy of their own persuasion.
Relieving officers inquire into distress. which
being relieved, extreme desiilution is avoid
ed. The passover enjoins every jew to have
his home thoroughly cIeansed annually, and
the rooms Of the lower classes are annually
Iime-wa he'd"

Wholesome Holidays.

Our nature needs RELAXATION and recresiinn.
While IL is rrue that. "sn idle mans b,sin is
the devils workshop" that oiher venerable
maxim, that "al work and no ioy makes
Jack dull bow" is not 70 be questioned Gor
a moment. We Americans, especially, have
reason for serious concern lest our unceasine
application to the one engrossing purpose of
money getting shall make us. no, merely
nalion OF fats and sharps AZ we are aieadv.
but OF mOnstiOus moral deiormifies We
need sprinkling Of holidays all along the
dusty. fervid, sweating years; and ono would
thins that if old, wrinkled Spain. or la belle
France, or grave, mcdItltivc Germany, Gao
afford several holidays month on the ave
rage. young America might indulge, without,
deriment To its bread and butter, 10 few
more recreative seasous than we now d..
And then the quality of our holidays is
quite as well worth thinking about as the
quantity. We Of course wish to say this in
a low whisper that We have sometimes Iho'f
our 4th OF July, which leaves behind il 20,
much beside The fumes Of rum, powder, aud
bad segars, and borror Of Chinese crackers,
IL not The most ennobling, OF fecreatiye, or
refreshing day in the year. Oar Thsnksgiy
ing. aud Christmas. and New Year are holi-
days, which might, and sometimes do sub
serve eitVhlel HOfal purposes. The gather.
ing of scattered families under the old roof
tree aud at the festive hoard, the cheering
gifts TO the poor, the filing of the chlldten's
stockings by jolly Santa Claus, md the io
ierchauges al meme otoes Of love and friend
ship, are all fruitful Of good feeling. But the
prodgious tasks imposed on the stomach by
the tous OF turkey, goose. mince pie, pump
kin pie, and what NOT, enoughto give a s,eam
engine tit of Indigestion or apopexy. are a
great drawback to that mental enjoyment and
full flow Of genial feeling which every holi
day should promote.
We do not anaIhemttizc the pie ,sures Of
the table, ~ generous moderation, but oar

HOwitt, expresses ", soar HOLIDAYS must be

The most laughable incident. connected

there was almost an unanimous exclamation
o'-"What! no comb on the hack of her heads
Oh, how unfortunate that should not have

Now, DC it known to our male readers, that
the anxiety TO ascertain the quality and guam
tity of Jenny's wearing .frins, was not fault
or pecunariry belonging exclusively to the
foregoing ladies; but one that is inherent in
the sex as proven by the fact that on Jenny's
returning TO her room, sho Immediately od-

"Susey, dear, | noticed that all the ladies

person ofa Rochester railroad and steamboat
