THB SEVEN AGKs-MRs. PARrrNaroxs
LAST EFFORF.-The New York Tribune
announces the arrival of the venerable
and worthy Mrs. Partington in that city.
and gives an account Of her visit to one
of the theatres to witness the perform
ance Of one Of Shakspcare's plays. She
says man named Jake spoke q place
called "Seven Edges" and it made such
an expression upon her, that she learnt
it by heart. Hear her version:
...-.-. All the worlds stage
And all the men and women are merely passengers !,
They have their axes and their entry ways,
And one man keeps time aud plays ll,s part;
And nli the axcs have edges. First the baby,
MewIng, 30, in the nurses arms;
And then the winning school boy with his scratch
awl, -. rrl
And shining mourning face, running like a snail,
unwittngly 90 school then the lover,
signing like foundery with an awful bandage
Made for his mistress eye brows then the soldier,
Jealous in horror, scrubbine a stuck in quarrel,
Seeking tho buhber refutation
Into The caRaon's mouth then justice of the peace
In falr round belly with a good apron lined;
HIS eyes sore and beard o( formal cut,
Full OF old bandsaws and modern mischances,
And so he srares hrs part; fhe sixth edge simmer
into
The lean and slippery pair Of pautaloons
With youthful hose, well shaved, a word tso vide
For the crook shank; and bug homeIy voice,
Turning grain towards his people,
And mizzles in his sound and last OF all
That eHds tins strange eyentful history,
ls second ch,ldishness and mere pavilion
Sands teeth, Sands eyes, Sands tasiing, Sands

all through his reign. Another merry

Mrs. JONES "ARouND. The Stam-
ford Advocate contains the following spir-
tied advertisement, which does its au-
thores infinite credit:
To THE. PUBLIC: Whereas nv husband.
Edward III. Jones, has falsely advertised
that have left his bed and board, and
that he will pay no debts of my contract
ing, &c, this is to inform the public that
the aforesaid Edward ii. Jones had neith-
er bed nor board for me to leave, he hay-
ing been living at the expense of my faith
er: and further, under pretence Of pro-
curing money to pay his way to Birming-
ham, Connecticut, he borrowed a dollar
of my father, and with that paid for his
lying advertisement against me, and
even after this dastardly act, he took all
the money l had, and borrowed every
cent in my mothers possession, and LETT
town. For the past three months he has
been kept from nakedness and starvation
by the exertions of myself and relatives !:
he squandered in dissipation all the money
his Unborn laZin, SIS would allow him to
earn. The scamp need not have adver-
tised that he would not pay debts of my
contracting, for the public well knows
that he would not even pay his own. He
is lazy, ungratefiI, loafing scoundrel !;
not content with living at the expense
of my relatives and borrowing their mo-
ney, he publishes an outrageous lie.
His bed and board, indeed If left to
himself, his bed would be nothing but a
board, and should not be much surprised
if the bed he dies on were made of boards,
with a strong cross-beam overhead.

IHR HUNGARIAN GIPSIEs.-The social
life of this outlawed race, now number
ing about 1900, bears the impress of
great moral depravity. Under tent, or
In narrow hut, containing one single
room, whole family lives, however nu-
merous, without any furniture, even
without bed. In the middle of this
room, . fire, their never-failing compan-
ion, burns alike in winter and summer,
over which hangs the large soup-kettle on
two forked sticks. Into it they throw
pell-mell all the eatables they procure
during the day, consisting of the most
curious medley of gypsy dainties-from q
rotten egg to dead cat. AS soon as the
boy enters manhood, he seeks for q COM
panion amongst the swarthy beauties of
his tribe, and after a short courtship
makes his proposals TO the object Of his
choice, the consent Of parents being not
much cared for by either of the parties.
On the wedding day. the bridegroom and
BRIDE don their best appsrel-the formers
consisting of hussar-cloak, probably
Older than himself, of a red or green
color, fIrred and braided, and on which,
If the owner be wealthy, glitter large
zinc or silver buttons. The bride wears
red petticoat of many folds. and white
skirt with short, full sleeves, her hair and
neck adorned with copper coins.
If they are not compelled to go to
church, the matrimonial ceremony is
performed in hut by the chief. or the
Oldest father in the hand, the bridegroom
pledEing his faith in the following man.
ner Il take thee for my hut-compsn-
ion as long as thou canst carry the SCAT

till death: for gypsy-woman is never
without her s.otyor, in which she collects
all the odds and ends she picks up during
her ramb,es. Then GENES feasting and
dancing, in which each member Of the
tribe shares. On the third day, the mer-
ry-making terminates, and the newly
welded couple build hut, procure the
implements for forging, and commence
their domestic life, with all its piquant
daily occurrences of begging, pilfering,
idling, &c.

U The following is published in a

PRESENCE OF MIND AND CouRAGB.-An
incident, in which wolves are concerned,
shows what may be done by presence Of
mind and courage. "A perilous sdven.
t,Te, relates to the Major, .'once bcfel my
brother-in law James. He was a bold
brave boy, of ten years old at the time,
and was on his return home with a pail
of oxen, with which he had been visiting
a neighbor, residing about six miles from
his .ather's house His road lay by tn,
river shore, which was drcary enough il
the fall of the year and in the evening
hour but the child was fearless, and saw
the deepening shades sink into nigh,
without experiencing anything like ap'
prehensiOn.
"He was trudging on steadily, singing
cheerfully as he walked, when a sound
came on the nightwind that sent shivel
through the young pedestrian fame,-
the war-cry Of the wolves. At first ht
hoped that he was not the object of pur.
suit,-but the hideouS uproar came nearer
and nearer, and then he knew that h,
must instantly adopt some plan for his
escape. '5
His route lay by the river shore, and
ne could swim we'll; but tho night WET
dark, and he might be hurried into tht
rapids, and to be dashed to pieces on the
rocks was scarcely less dreadful than te
be manglcd and devourd by wolves. In
this extremity, the child lifted up his
brave young heart to God and resolved to
use the only chance left him for escape.
So he mounted Buck, the near-ox, max.
ing use Of bis goad, shouting at the same
time to the animal, to excite him to bis
utmost speed. H. 79s.5 HHs- So. =

have flung off his rider, and left him for
wolves meat without hesitation; but
Buck set off with the speed of race

er's peril. Nor was his companion less
nimbjer. Fast, however, As the trio fed,
still faster came upon them the yelling
pack behind, and James could ever hear
Their long, hard esIIop, which could tire
The hounds deep hate, q hunters fire.
Happily for him, old Buck heard il
too, and galloped on and on but still the
wolves came nearer and nearer. james

shouted, to keep them off; the oxen al
most flying, their chains rafting As they
went. This clacking sound, TO which the
hateful pack were unaccustomed, made
them pause whenever they came close
upon the oxen, while the latter redoublcd
their speed, till at length those gallant
racers left the wolves behind, and finding
themselves within . short distance Of
home, never stopped till they had brought
the brave little fellow safely in his own
