How TO /" FINISH" DAUGHTER.-We be-
lieve the subject of" finishing" daughters ex-
pedtiously and effectually is generally under
stood and almost universally practiced in this
country. II, however, there should be any pa
rents SO lamentably ignorant as to fall below
common custom, in this respect, wc commend
them to the following brief rules from Punch
l. BE always telling her how pretty she is.
2. Instil into her mind proper love of dress.
3. Accustom her to so much pleasure that
she is never happy at home
a. Allow her to read nothing but novels.
B. Teach her all the accomplishments, but
none of the utilities of life.
6. Keep her in the darkest ignorance of the
mysteries of housekeeping.
z. Initiate her into the principles that it is
vulgar to do anything for herself
8. To strengthen the latter belief, let her have
n ladies' maid.
9. And lastly, having given her snch an edu-
cation, marry her TO a clerk in the Treasury,
upon f65 year, or to an ensign that is going
out TO India.

ROBBED HIMsELF.-A Mr.. Hise, Of Jackson
township, who, as we are informed, had sold
his farm a short time since, received his money,
$1,000, in gold, on Thursday evening last, and
putting it into a carpet sack which he hung
upon his bedpost, and went to sleep. In the
morning the sack and money were gone-all he
had in the world. To add to his misfortune,
too, he had contracted for another farm, and
was TO pay for it the next day.
During the dsy friday the carpet sack was
found in hollow poplar stump near the barn,
with the pocket book in it, but no money there
the thief had secured what he wanted.
On Friday night, Mrs. Hise was awakened by
her husband getting out of bed. She rose and
watched him. He went to the barn, after
searching little while, came out with the mon
ey in his hand, and went to the stump where
the carpet sack had been put. She now awak-
ened him, when to his great JOY he found that
all was not lost He had doubtless, while in his
sleep, become uneasy about his money on the
first night and got up and hid it the second
night, fearing it was not secure where it was,
he was removing it to a more secret place.
Fortunately for him, his wife detected him in
his somnambulistic waDderings, and saved their
all. Greensburg (Ind) Press.

INCIDENT OF THE LATE VOYAGE OF THE SA-

steamship Sarah Sands found herself surround
ed by ice in the middle of the Atlantic Happily
she was not detained on this account above
twenty-four hours. One of the passengers
turned the delay to the best account. Being
something of an artist he went out upon the
ice at distance from the ship, and there made
sketch of her and the surrounding scene I; a
thing probably never before accomplished IN
that situation. We understand that the sketch
is to be Autographed. portland Advertiser.

FROM THE BAHAMAs.-A correspondent, da-
ting from Nassau, N. p, April ., says of that
port:
ut is supported almost entirely by the wreck
ing business. There are between 500 and 600
persons who have licenses to follow the busi-
ness, belong to the province, most of them sail
ing small schooners. The ringing Of the bell
that announces Z" a wreck ashore," diffuses over
the place an atmosphere of hilarity and glee-
Suddenly all loafng comes to an end. The DOM
inoes are dropped in the middle of the game,
and the dice, though ratified, are not thrown
Everything is hustle, stir and haste. If | had a
vessel that must be wrecked near these reefs,
would prefer that she go down in the deep wa
ter to falling into their avaricious clutch. Woe
to the Insurance Company that loses vessel
hercabouts. The wreckers take from 40 to 80
per cent for their trouble, the Agent for the
Underwriters takes s per cent. sales; the Cham
Der Of Commerce, 10 or 20 per cent. more; and
if on figuring that up there is any balance, it is
like the remnant of cheese which the cats went
to law about, and which you will find laid down
in the books"
The United States Agent had on his hands
some 80 sailors, and the wrecks about the island
were not less than eight in number, at our cor
respondents writing. n Y. Times.

WHAT IS VIRTUE "A student put this ques-
ton to the late Archibald Alexander. His SIM

is a fact honorable to the craft, and aifording

Here lays

The author must have had hand in the fa-
nous Dundee epitaph, written to immortalize
Provost Johnson. The Town Council of Dun.
dee, in Scotland, so greatly revered the memory
of the Provost that they offered q premium for
the best poem for the tombstone. Two were
sent in. The first that was opened ran thus:
Here lies John Johnson, Provost of Dundee,
Here lies him, here lies he.
1t was thought impossible to improve upon
this but the second was opened, and the town
clerk read
Here lies John Johnson, Provost of Dundee,
Halleluja Hallclujee
Itis unnecessary to say that this performance
was declared the "prize essay" and was en-
graved on the Provost's stone. If any of our
readers should cross the water, and make a tour
in Scotland next summer, they can call at Dun
dee, and verify the fact. Boston Bee.

what is going to be done with this domestic in

who has the strongest right. The more Terri
tories and States either party has, consequently
so many more delegates and representatives.
The great stride between the North and South
is whose power shall over balance the other p

ascendancy. Although it is written that house

as it was to the chaplain on board a Cunard
steamer, when the ship hands were slow to come
to prayers, one Sunday, cried "D--n you, why
don't you come to prayers?" Gov. Ross,
of the Cherokee nation, has issued timely and
most solemn protest to the General Government
that in their scramble for Nebraska to pull it
into pieces they should not violate their sacred
pledge to his nation by infringing upon Indian
territory.
Well, what next! Perhaps we shall be blam-
ed for talking so much about family matters, but
as we mean it only for the family, and by no
means to go abroad, we will wind up by saying
that, after the day of turning and overturning is
past, we look for the reign of Him whose right
it is to reign in peace and righteousness.
