How to Laugh,

Among the various indices Of character
there are few more significant than laugh
ter; it is indeed, as CUIy'c says, "thc
cipEerkey' Whereby We unlcck the pecu-
lIariies of man. In the different diapa-
sons of The organs Of eacLinatian, there is
an endless variety; they form pcrfcc.
scale, from the roar of the bull Of Bsshan,
which shakes the leaves frcm the forest
trees, down to the scarcely audible faint
hess of grasshopper's chirp. One man
draws out his laugh in a long and fearful
crcscendo-a lengthend and inextinguish-
anlc peal, constantly increasing in yolumc
aid power, till it abruptly terminates b.
tursting his wristbands, and splitting his
lnee-pans. The laugh ofanother explode,
at long intervals, with loud and vigor-
oas jerk, like the short, quick bark Of al
cnraged whclp. The laugh Of that tall,
thin, lantern-jawed fel oS, sitting yondel
tctween the horns Of shirt collar, sncaLs
into the world, as if ashamed Of It's exil!ty
aai slowly dies away in faint undcrtonc
like the death of pulmonary flea
TAg laugh of that platter faced, por;ly-
bc,l:.d, jolly-looking man opposite, pos
s-as a rumbling sound, ike the peal OF
hegvy cannon, or the roll Of distant thun-
der; it jars the room, ard 10. the window
,u,tain feels its power, and waves to anI
ire in the current Of agitated air.
If there is an object in this world that
We do from our soul detcst, it is one Of
your well-bebaved, polished: and polite
PEOPLE, who, Incapable Of anything but
commonplace and dec rum, deem it d
magnanimous and out-of ihc-way elevation
Of uind, always to laugh in their sleeve ;
who wear an everlasting, barren, tceihdis-
liaying simper; who can only, as Carlyle
saws, "sniff and litter from the throat out
wards, or produce at best some whiting,
husky cachination," as if their wind pipes
wanted oiling, or, " as if they were laugh
Ing through wool" We abLor such 4 base
compromise. Such mcan-spiritcd sneaks
would rob hen-roost. Commend us to
the man who can laugh outright; who,
instead of meanly giggling at good )ke,
tumbles back in his chair, and bugs.s into
q hilarious roar, regular lla. IIa. Ila =
a"gufaw," or hcrselaus h cvcn-as loud
and inextinguishable as the laughter Of
tie gods Of Homer. Such laughter can
be enjoyed in its lerfccticn only by those
who read such witty papers as the YAM
KEE BLADE, and who are thus enabled to
Shake the cobwebs from their BRAIN, and
make their wrinkles themselves Of they are

ment-lb.

How Old Ben Hardin got his WIFE.

Romance is sometimes embodied in fact six inch
es long. An instance of this may be found in the
rich and funny stratagem by which old Ben Hardin,
of Kentucky got his wife, of which we have the fol-
lowing account:
In the days of his young manhood he was work
man on the farm of a wealthy land holder in that
State and there sprang up between the young la
borer and the old mans daughter what is often call
ed, secret attachments
By the by, though, attachments generally Sc
cret. Well--Ben and his Dulcna made out matters
in proper time without the knowledge consent of
his intended father-in-law. Indeed. the old man
had suspected that the aspirations of the youth
were tending towards an alliance with his family,
and if it had ever occurred to him, he would have
spurned the thought. Ben was aware of his aristo-
cratic notions and of the existence of almost nsur
mountable objections to the match. So one day,
consulting the ingenuity of his nature he devised
ways and means to bring it about.
Going to the old man. he told him that unfortu-
natelv he had conceived liking for the daughter OF
wealthy farmer in the INTERCHANGEABLE it was
impossible to gain the consent of the girls father
that he loved her--and she loved him and asked
the old man what he would advise him tc
pursue.
Wont she run away with you % asked the old
man.
She might answered Ben. {" if I could make
the arrangements. Do you think it would be honor
able for to take the advantage of such thing 2!
Certainly" replied the originator of the plot
" there would be nothing wrong"
Ben so enlisted the old in his favor that he
made him a tender Of his horse and buggy. The
place of meeting arranged, and, reader, you
know the rest Ben off with the old mans daugh
ter, fact which the old man snutfed in with The
