A Happy Home.

The first year of married life is a most
important era in the history of man and
wife. Generally, as it is spent, so is al
most all subsequent existence. The wife
and the husband then assimilato their
views and their desires, or else, conjuring
up their dislikes, they add fuel to their
preiudiccs and animosities forever after.
wards.
"I have somewhere read" says Rev.
Mr.. Wise, in his Bridal Greetings, "of a
bridegroom who gloried in his eccentrici.
ties. He requested his bride to accom-.
pany him into the garden, day or two
after their wedding. He then threw a
line over the roof Of their cottage. Giving
his wife one end Of it, he retreated to the
other side, and exclaimed
"PulI the line."
She pulled it, at his request, as far as
she could. He cried,
"Pull it over"
s.I can't" she replied.
"But pull with all your might" shouted
the whimsical husband.
But vain were all the efforts of the
bride to pull over the line, so long as her
husband held to the opposite end. But
when he came round, and they both pull
ed at the end, it came over with great
ease.
"Therew as the line fell from the roof,
"you see how hard and Intellectual was
our labor when we pulled in opposition
to each other; but how easy and pleasant
it wa, when we both pulled together
1t will be so with us, my dear, through
life! If we oppose each other, it will be
hard work; if we act together it will be
pleasant to live. Let us always pull to-
gether."
In this illustration. homely az It may
be, there is sound philosophy. Husband
and wife must mutually bear and concede
if they wish to make home retreat o
Joy and bliss. One alone cannot mak'
home happy. There needs unison o
action, sweetness of spirit, and great for
bearance and love in both husband ant
wife, to secure the great end Of happines
in the domestic circle.-Ludies' Reposi

The Washington monument.

The huge obelisk which is in course
of erection at the Capital, costs thou.
sand dollars a foot, and it goes towards
heaven at the rate of four or five feet
month, and consequently requires a
monthly expenditure of four or five thou.
sand dollars. While the work goes on,
there is, of course, steady drain upon
the treasury; but the receipts fluctuate,
and have Of late so much fallen off, that
unless the subscriptions speedily and ma.
terially increase the cork must stop. It
should be borne in mind that the blocks
which have been forwarded to Washing
ton by the different States of the Union.
and by other countries, though they add
much to the interest of the monument,
contribute very little to its bulk and height.
and diminish the cost of each course of
masonry only in very slight degree.
10 complete the monument will require
sum which, if contributed in equal pro.
portion by the citizens of the United
States, would tax each individual to the.
amount of Three Cents, and yet the sub.
scription languishes, and the building.
committee is embarrassed. The ladies

and it may perchance be theirs to bring
the present enterprise to completion.
We learn from the Boston Transcript that
there is rival in the field. The prelimi.
nary arrangements for the erection of
monument on Plymouth Rock, to the
memory of the Pilgrim Fathers, are in
Progress, and the sons of New England.
n all parts of the country, will soon be
alled upon to contribute. One at a

Fanny smiled at his ignorance, assur

"Don't 'tyou admire the dressg" she ask
ed, after moments silence.
"Oh, yes, greatly; but is not as pret

Yes" answered Fanny, with bright

Dearest Fanny, how good, how just
like you, that was. have thought this
just the loveliest dress in the world !; the
color belongs to you, by the right of your

you be married in blue?
Fanny laughed outright at this, saying
that the idea was quite absurd and impos.

:" My milliner meant to have my bridal
array quite complete" she said, for here
is the wreath of orange blossoms. What

Away with it" he replied; "there is
something stiff, stately, and exotic, in these

turbing her mother.
From that night Mrs. Austin always
remained with her daughter, watching
and Weakening her whenever she rose in
her sleep, put OH her bridal dress, and
prepared to steal out to her grave yard
tryst. It was needful, but it was cruel !;
for from that time Fanny sank in body
and spirit. She seemed to utterly lack
the miraculous sustainment she had
known at frst-the vision and the COM
fort it brought were gone together.
One day, seeing her mother weeping,
she said, "Is it not written, that man
shall forsake father and mother and
ceave to his wife, Can wife do less
for her husbandl Mother, God hasjoin-
ed me to Henry; my soul cleaves to his,
that they cannot be separated; and when
he calls must 60 to him even from you" ;"
At "a latter.period she said, "Mother
dear, want you to see that no ghostly
shroud is put on me, but soft, white
muslin dress; and fold my bridal veil
about me, and put white roses in my hair
that all may know tbr am his bride,
and not Deaths. Ar Oh, mother, keep
very sacred the blue lawn | wore on that
last night, and never let them wash Hen
rvs blood out of it. Most of all, want
YOU to promise me to plant with your
own hand, that blush rose-trce that Henry
gave me, between him and me, SO that
the roses will fall upon US BOTH"
Before the leaves OF. the elm tree over
Henry Testers grave were goldened by
the autumn frosts, his Fanny was lying
at his side. When June came round
again, the grass was long and green, and
the rose.tree grew more beautifully than
ever there; and when the evening winds
shook the branches, they scattered q
sweet largess Of leaves upon the mounds
and swung out fragrance on the grave
sweeter than aught else, save the memory
of the lovers sleeping below.
Often has my mind dwelt long ane
deeply on those dreams, which were ye
no dreams-those sweet exalted visions
those frances of love and sorrow, which
drew that tender and delicate girl, array
ed in her bridal dress, night after nigh
to the lonely grave other betrothed. Oh
beautiful, adorable mystery Of love! Oh
grave where was here thy victory! Oh
mortality where the might of thy priso'
walls! As OF old, an angel came in til
night time and led forth the prisoner.
