"The death of an old mans wife," says Lamartine, "is like cutting down o1 an anciem oak ,ha, has shaded the family mansion. Hrnceiorsh the glare 'of the world with its cares and viclssi- tudes. fall upon the old widower's heart and there is nothing to break their force. It is as if his rish, hand was witiered-as Il one wing of the eagle was broken, and every movemen, ,ha, he made only brought him to the ground. His eyes are dim and ylassy, and swhea abe 6lm uf death falls over him, he misses those accustomed tones which might have soe,hed his passage 10 the grave"

Let me see female possessing the beauty of a meek and modes, deport- men.--of an eye that bespeaks in,elli- gence and purity wi,hn-of the lips that speak no guIle-le, me see in her . kind and benevolent dispos.':on-a heart that can sympa,hze with distress and will never ask for the beauty that dwells in "raby Ips," or |" flowing sresses,"- or "snowy hands," or the forty other etceleras on which our poets have harped for so many ages. These fade when touched by the hand of Time, but those ever-endurins qualities of the heart shall outlive the reign ot Time, and grow brighter and lresher as the ages of Eternity roll away.

.Thpis on it, Captain.n

xHpls 0n 1sj Capt3m."
 A good story has been told of . lisping officer in the U. s. Army having been victimised by . brother officer, (who was nnied for his cool deIiberation and strong nerye,) and his getting square with hin Tn in the following manner: The cool joker, captain, was always quizzing the lisping officer -a lieutenanf, lor his nervousness.
 "Why," said he, one day, in the presence ofh company, She, vousness is all nonsense 1! l tell you, lieutenant, DO brave man will be nervous"
 "Weil, inquired the lisping friend, "how would you do, impose thell with an inch faibee .l,ould drop it,helf ia . walled angle in which you had taken thelter from a company of tI,arp thooters, and where it wath .herta, n chat il you put out your nolhe you'd git peppered ,"
 " How." said the captain, wink ns at the circle, ".w1,y, take il cool, and spit on the fusec."
 The party broke up and all retired Tor sl's night except the patrol. The next morning number of soldiers were assembled and talking in clusters, when <>'along came the lisping lieutenant, and entering the captains quarters, found him s.lii in bed; iuziiy opeuiny iris ryrs he remarked:
 "l want to try an ex,hperiment .hi,h morning, and thee how extheed,nsly cool you can be-"
 Saying which he walked deliberately up 10 the fire burning on lhe hearth, and placing in its hottest centr. pow der canister, instantly retreated. There was but one mode of egress from the quarters and that was upon Ihe parade ground, the road being bull, up for defence; the occupant took one glance at the canister, cenprehended his si,u- alton, and in moment dashed at the door, but il was fastened on lhe outside.
 Charley, let me on, if you love me!' shouted the captain"
 "Tnpit on the canilh.er p shouted he in return.
 Not moment was 10 be lost he had at first sna.c,eI up blanket 70 cover lis egress bu. now dropping il, he raised the window, and out he bounded, 'sans cuoues,' minus every thing but very short undergarmenl :; and thus, with hair almost upon end, he dashed upon full parade ground The shout which hailed hlm brough, out the whole barracks to see what was The matter, and the dignfied cap tain. pulled tall sergeant in front of him to hide himself.
 " Why didn't you thpit on it?' inquired the lieutenant
 ," "Because there was no slarp-shoot- ers in front to stop a retreat," answered the captain.
 "All have got to ,hay, then, i,t," said tho lieutenant, ",hat you migh, thafely done it, for ,hware there wa.h'nt a thingle grain of powder in it."
 The captain has never spoken against nervousness since.
