TEST OF Ill BREEpING.-There is no
better test of ill-breeding than the prac-
ttice of interrupting another in converse
ton by speaking. or commencing a re-
mark before another has fully closed. No
well bred person ever does it. nor con.
tinues conversation long with one who
does, The latter often finds an interest.
ing conversation abruptly waived. closed,
or declined by the former, without sus>
pecting the cause. A well bred person
will not even interrupt one who is in all
respects greatly his inferior. Ifyou wish
to judge the good breeding of person
with whom you are but little acquainted,
observe him or her, in this respect. and
you will not be deceived. However in.
telligent, fluent, or easy one may appear,
this practice proves the absence of true
politepess. 1t is often amusing to sec
persons pridipg themselves on the gen.
tility of their maDasrs, and putting forth
all their efforts to appear to advantage
in many other respects, so readily betray
all 10 this particular. Harper's Mag.

WIFE,

The word wife, does not, in our opinion,
simply mean, as Walker has it, "a woman
that has husband !" for some women have
husbands, and good ones too, who are not
wives according TO our understanding of
the term. Wife does n)t mean, woman
nor lady only, nor slave nor mistress.
mother nor nurse, teacher. nor com,
panion, tool nor playlhing but she Is
all these things united together, III one beau
tilul transparent whole.
In society she is a woman, in the parIor
lady, in the nursery a slave, in The dining
room mistress. iii her chamber m"'frr
in the sick room nurse, to her children
teacher. 10 her husband companion. and
an equal but in no situation whatever can
she be politician, a preacher, lawyer,
physician, or philosopher, without becoming
a literary blue stocking, the anlIpodes OF
wife, and the most contemplate being of
earth.
The office Of wife, therefore, is the hap
piest, vet most laborious, the highest, yet
most humble portion that lrail mortality can
OCCUPY Nor is there any station on earth
70 which the "lortls Of creation" can aspire,
the duties Of which are more responsible,
and tho faithful, or imperfect discharge OF
which will be rewarded with more intensity
than that Of the wife, which we believe to
be one Of the consequences OF violation
of the high trusts committed to the flst wife
in the garden Of Eden, that she should be
ian helpmate TO ADAM"
To society she is an indispensable menl-
Der. To the parlor, the most important
parsonage in The nursery, the most abjcc'
slave in the dining room, the most absolute
sovereign in her chamber, a guardian an
gel ; in the sick room, the best physician to
her children, the wsest priest to her hus,
band, the most valuable agent, the dearest
and cheapest counsellor, the most loved and
loving companion in word. "the wife TO
home" is every blessing the mortal mind
can conceive, or heart desire. Home with
out wife is ga strange land" head
without brains, heart without conscience,
a ship without sails, an ocean without
waves. world without religion, heaven
without God.

ALL RIGHT.

A young lady at party a few eve
niugs back, was for considerable time much
annoyed by the inccssant gabble and ob,ru'
sive attentions Of loquacIous and unman-
nerlv coxcomb. Wcaried aud worried from
her pratling tormentor, she at length feIgn'
ed sudden illness, as pretext for withdraw
ing. The beau, who at once stood up, was
now all attention, and inquired. in his mos,
polished tone, whether he could be OF any
service TO her. :, .
"Ycs, sir, you can serve me materially
was the reply.
Indeed Oh, how happy feel in being
able to obligc you, Madam. beg you will
command me at once"
Then to test your obedience" said the
lady, 81 command you to leave me at once
and you will obligc me very much; and J
TOO, shall feel quite happy"

she came plump into the arms of man: Of
course she was dreadfully frightened and with
loud shrieks of "murder, cried for help. The
whole house was reused, and persons in night
shirts and night-caps came thick and fast to
see what was the matter. Judge of the sur
prise of the lady when she found she had ran
against her husband, who had heard the child,
and prompted by like motives with his wife,
had slipped out of the bed to see it. After q
hearty laugh. all retired to bed well satisfied
that matters were no worse.-Sou'h Boston

l do not crave bright gems Of earth,
Nor gold of dazzlinv hue,
But ask for something more of worth
A heart that's pure and true.
Though earth may yield her costly gems
That look so fair to view;

But for heart that's true.
T heart glows with noble deeds,
For this e'er will sue;
A guiltless heart from envy freed
A heart that's pure and true.
A heart like this il real worth,
