Conjugal Affection.

The Hon. Horace Mann, in his eulo-
gy on the lamented Rantoul related the
following touching instance of conjuga
affection, in connection with the last ILL.,
ness of the deceased.
yet Mr.. Rantoul, even amid the ag>
onies of his disease, had lucid intervals.
There were convictions in his mind so
deep-seated, and affections in his heart so
strong, as to stand unmoved by any tenn
pest of delirium. On being teiegraphed
respecting the illness Of her husband,
his devoted and excellent lady, then IN
Massachusetts, FASTENED to his succor.-
She arrived here at six o'clock on the
morning of the day lie died. Instantly
her voice wooed back consciousness and
reason. He seized her hand in his,
and held it till he brealhed his last
Even when his mind wandered, this
grasp of affection remained unclenched.
Death only relaxed it.
The swelling of the disease had closed
his eyes, and it was beyond the power
of muscular contraction to open them.
He desired to have them opened by me-
chanical means, that he might once
more behold the features and the face
whence, for more than twenty years, the
Ii CHIT Of love had shone down into his
heart. Thank God, sir, that, amid all
the alterations and strifes aud hostlitIes
which seem sometimes 10 flow out of the
human bosom as though it were their
natural fountain, there are also affections,
sympathies, tendernesses and loves which
are inseparable from it f; allied 10 it by a
more congenial affinity and which we
al.'ays may fad there, close as green
to the verdant leaf, or color to The rose

The Old Oaken Bucket.

This beautiful and popular song or ballad
is said 10 have had its origin under the fol-
lowing circumstances, which give it addi-
iional interest:
Some years ago, when Woodwork. Tie
printer, and several other 'Od New Workers.
were brother typos in a printing office,
which was situated at the corner of Chest
nut street aud Chambers, there were very
few places in the city OF New York where
we could enjoy the luxury Of a really good
drink Among the few places most worthy
of patronage, was an establishment kept by
Mallory, or Franklin street, on or about the
same spot where St. Johns Hall recently
stood. Woodwork, in company with sew
eral partic ular friends, had dropped in at
this place one afternoon, for the purpose of
taking some brandy and water, which
Mallory was famous for keeping.
The liquor was super-eXcelIent, and Wood
worth seemed inspired by il for, after taking
draught lie laid his glass upon the table,
(remember reader, if you please, in those
times we rarely met friend withou; inviting
to imbibe) and smacking his lips, declared
that Mallory's eau de Uie was superior 10 any
he ever tasted. No said Mallory, YOU are
quite mistaken; there was one thing which,
in both Of our destinations, far surpassed this,
in the way of drinking. What was thar p
asked Woodwork, obviously. The dranglrt
Of pure fresh spring water that we used to
drink from the old oaken bucket that hung in
the well. after our return from the llbors of
The field on IA suitry day in summer
The tear drop gll>teued for a moment in
Woodworth's eye. True truer he replied,
and soon after quilted the place. He returned
to the Office, grasped the pen, and in halt an
hour THE Old Oaken Bucket one of the
most delightful compositions in our language,
was ready IN manuscript, TO be embalnied
in the memories OF succeeding generations"

TOMATO FIGs.-The following is the
method ct preserving tomatoes in Bermu-
da, and thereby manufacturing a sweet
preserve something like figs:
Take six pounds of sugar TO one peck
{ or sixteen pounds J ofthe fruit, scald and
remove the skin of the fruit in the usual
way, cook them over a fire, their own
juice being sufficient without the addition
of water, until the sugar penetrates and
;hey are clarified: they are then shaken
out, and spread on dishes, fattened, and
dried in the sun. A small quantity of
the syrup should be occasionally sprink
led over them whilst drying, after which
pack them down in boxes, treating each
layer with powdered sugar. The syrup
Is afterwards concentrated and bottled for
use. They keep from year 10 year, and
retain their favor surprisingly, which is
nearly that of the best quality of fresh
figs. The pear shaped or single toma,os
answer the perpose best. Ordinary brown
sugar may be used, large portion of
which is retained in the syrup
