A MoTHER's TEARs.-There is touch
ing sweetness in a mothers tears when
they fall upon the face of her dying babe,
which no eye can behold without imbibing
lis influence. Upon such hallowed ground
the foot of profanity dares not approach
Infdelity itself is silent, and forbears its
scofings. And here woman displays not
her weakness, but her strength; it is that
strength of attachment which can never In
its full intensity be realized. 1t is perennial,
dependant upon no climate, no changes
out alike in storm and sunshine-it knows
no shadow of turning. A father when he
sees his child going down to the dark val
ley, will weep when the shadow of death
has fully come over him and as the last
parting knell falls on his ear, he may say,
Il go down to the grave of my son mourn
ing But hurry of business draws him
away; the tear is wiped from his eye, and
if when he turns from his freslde, the va
cancy in the family circle reminds him of
his loss, the succeeding day blunts the poig-
nancy of his grief, until at length it finds
no permanent seat in his breast. Not so
with her who has borne and nourished the
tender blossom. 1t lives in the heart where
1t was first cntwined in the dreaming hours
of night She sees its playful mirth or
hears its plantive cries, she seeks it in the
morning, and goes to the grave 10 weep
there.

How to Marry OF an Old Maid.

A young lady in the neighborhod of Lii
lie, found herself some seven or eight years
since arrived at proper age to marry, and
as she was both rich and beautiful. she did
not want for suitors. But Henrietta was a
little like the marriageable girl told Of by
the good EIfontaine. She was somewhat
difficult in her tastes and found one too
tall, another too short, this one too thin, and
that one too fat, with innumerable other
deficiencies just as Objectionable as these.
Those she had rejected, mortified at their
want Of success, deferred others who
might have wished to try their luck with
the young lady, so that at last she found
herself almost deserted and forced to the
extremity of 'setting her cap, ''as it is call
ed, for husband. Several years were thus
passed, when one day an uncle, who was
we'll acquainted with the subject and to
whom the troubles of Henrietta had been
told, undertook to get her married. Being
supplied with money and full power in the
premises, he took his niece to the south OF
France, and while On the way held with
her this little discourse
"My dear niece, the great point of sue
cess in this wcrld is to seize opportunities
when they arise. Now you have permitted
all yours to slip by. This is unfortunate to
be sure, but what is to be done' A maid
en- of your age finds husband with diff
ticulty. 1t is not so with young widow.
Henceforth you are no longer Mademois-
selle Henriotte <, but Madame
o.. widow. Your husband, who
lived only three months after your union,
was an officer who died of fall from his
horse while hunting. He has left no chill
dren-"But, my dear uncle. leave it all
to me, and let us purchase the necessary
dresses and the marriage gift which your
husband would have given you. See =
Madame o., here is your marriage
ring. Recollect now you are to put on a
mourning figure and a serious air"
Arrived at Marsellles, the young widow
produced great sensation in the social cir
cles In which she was presented. The
great question among the young men now
was who should obtain the hand of Madame
o.! Many proposed, among whom
one was at last accepted.
The evening before the marriage the un-
Gle took his future nephew aside and said :
"My dear sir, we have deceived you !'-
"How!' exclaimed the young man: cam
not then beloved ~ ooh far from it,
"Have you deceived me then in respect to
her fortune :" "On the contrary, she is
richer than told YOU" "What is it then?'
"Alas! \ little pleasantly we made one
foolish day-my niece is not widow. -
WHAT Is Mon. o. still living?" II
know not how that may be, but my niece
is still maiden" AT these words the fu-
ture nephew hastened to protest that far
from being an obstacle, this news served
only to increase his desire for the fulfil
ment of the marriage. The union was not
delayed. A trip through Italy was taken
as their wedding tour before the happy
couple returned again to the paternal roof.
