BY FANNY FERN.

We'll Bridget, what do you think Of
the bride?'
oh, she's pretty young thing; but
If she had known as much as | do Of his
mother, she never would have come to
live with her. She's a regular old hyena,
and if she don't bring the tears into
those blue eyes before the honeymoon
is over, then my name isn't Bridget
Why, she's the most oudacious old
thing; she oyerhaaled all her wardrobe
Yesterday before she could get here,
and as l passed through the entry !
heard her muttering to herself-"Silk
stockings! hump! ruffled underclothes!
Wonder ifshe thinks I'll have 'em ironed
here? Embroidered nightcaps!-silk

I'll tell you what, Bridget, there new
er was house built yet that was big
enough for two families to live in, and
you'll find out that this won't be, Ireck-
on"
what tears, Emma, tearsp said the
young husband, as he returned from his
counting-room one day, about a month
latter marriage, and with look of anx-
iety he drew her closer to his breast
ssTell me, you do not so soon regret
your choice?'
The little rosy mouth was held up
temptingly for kiss, and in those blue
eyes he read the answer his heart was
seeking.
What, then? Is your pet canary
sick? Can't you dress your hair to suit
you? or are you in despair because you
can't decide in which of all your dress
es you look the prettiest?'
Don't be ridiculous, Harry said
Emma, laughing and crying together
Il feel nervous, that's all. I'm SO glad
you have come home"
Harry felt sure that wasn't all, bu
he forebore to question her farther, fol
he entertained the most unboundine
confidence that she would tell him il
good time
The truth was, Harry's mother had
been leeturing her daughter-in-law OF
the degeneracy of the time; hoped she
wouldn't think of putting on the fine
things her friends had rugged her ou
with; times were not now as they useC
to be; that if Harry gave her pocket
money she had better give it to her t
keep, and not to be spending it for non
sense; that young wife's place was i
her husbands house, and she hoped sh
would leave off that babyish trick q
running home every day to see he
mother and sister.
Emma listened in silent amazement
she was a warm-hearted; affectionat
girl, but she was very high spirited
The color came and went rapidly in he
cheek, but she forced back the tear
that were starting to her eyes, for sh
had too much pride to allow her to Sc
them fall.
After old Mrs. Hall retired, she sa
for moment or two recalling her words

WORTHLESS EMIGRANrs.-It was sta
ted lately by one of the New York pa.
pers that Of the twelve hundred pris-
oners on Blackwell's Island, only three
hundred and nineteen are American
This proportion of three-fourths foreign
ers appears, at first glance, to be almost
incredible; and yet we believe it strictly
true. From what we know of other
Atlantic cities, we are satisfied that the
same criminal proportion exists. But
this is not all. Nearly all the beggars
we meet in our streets are foreigners,
who also compose a large majority of
the inmates of our alms-houses. That
exalted sentiment of humanity which
made our shores an asylum for the op-
pressed of every other land, is honora-
bic to the American name, and is wor-
thy of being fostered with the utmost
care. But as it is the nature of things
that those who are the most generous
should be the most easily duped, our
hberality is shamefully abused, and men
stained with almost every crime that
blackens the record of humanity; pau
pers who have long been burden up
on their respective parishes; lazzaroni
organized into systematic association
all these are sent over here, as to a
penal colony, to prey upon our pockets,
or appeal to our sympathies. We offer
Europeans an asyidm, and they turn
our country into common sewer
When are we to have laws that will
govern emigration, and correct system
of naturalization which invests a for
eigner with political privileges before he
understands our lan0uage.=HorneG Gaz.
