Misapprehensiop.

We recollect once being very much amused
at the relation of the following aneclote, from
the lips ofa very nmia5le and withal modest
widow late of New Jersey.
Soon after her husband had paid the debt Of
nature, leaving her the sole legatee, claim
was brought against the estate by his brother,
and process was served upon her by the
Sheriff of the county; who happened 10 be a
widower Of middle age.
Being unused, q: that time, TO the forms ol
law, she has ample opportunity for acquiring
experience; she was very much alarmed, and
meeting, just after the departure Of the sher,
III, with a female friend, she exclaimed with
much agitation:
"What DO you think Sheriff PeriRe has
been after me.'
"Wel," said the considerae lady with per
feet coolneSS, "he is very fine man."
"But he says he has an attachment for me-
replied the widow.
"WelI, have long suspected he was at
tached TO you, my dear"
"But you don't understandable says mus
go 10 Court.'
"Oh, that's quite another affair, my child
don't you go so far as that; it is his place It
come and court you"

The Religion Of Childhood.

If both world and church will only learn
what the chids simple presence may teach,
instead Of eachng what he cannot Innocent
" learn, the ruth may daw, upon them, that
he seldom requires 20 be led, only not to be
misled.
II the name of God is 10 be sweet 10 young
hearts, it must stand for their highest, not for
ours: and many phrase, rich and deep spir-
its differently atluned. On! how many OBJ
S,-uctions have not veraciOus men 10 remove
ere they can fluid their true religion! How
long do they say their prayers before they pray,
and hear and speak Of holy things without
touch OF worship.
Tie religion Of the child is cheerful REQ
erence and with its sweet light no tnge
shouId mix from the later Soemnit7 and inner
conflicts of faith. Let him lake his vow with
a glad voice if you drive him prematurely 10
the confessional, you make him false. The
ms,in- hym Of life to God is brilliant with hope
and praise and without violence to nature,
YOU cannot displace it for the deep, loud
breathing yeSper song the rosy air or S flesh
nature was never made 10 vlbra e 10 that
strain. Even from The stony heart OF old
Nemnon ON the waste, beams vivid as the
morning wrung muImur Of hopry melody
and oniy a, the dip of day did a passing piain'
float through he deserts stately silence.
If only we will not hinder, God has prov
idence most rich in help. Judge not the
child's mind BY your own nor fancy that you
have a religion 10 create against some power
Cul resistance, which skill is needed TO evadt
or proof 10 overcome. His spirit, if unSpolled
is with you, where you speak Of God'-Jdo

"Little Benny

So the simple hesdstone said. Why did my

his merry shout, or listened 10 his tripping

his little form, or Smoothed his silky locks, or

with dainty bits, or kissed his rosy cheek as
he lay sleeping. did not see his eye grow
dim, or his little hand drop powerleSs, or the
drw Of agony gather on his pale forehead;

The Mexican Revolution.

The progress of the Mexican revolution,
within the last two months, has attracted an
share of attention 10 the affairs OF
that beautiful but unfortunate country, which
might have been, and may yet be, the most
valuable auxiliary 10 the United States, in
stead Of Troublesome and worthless neigh
Dor, from whom we have never received ben
eft which was not dearly purchased either by
money or blood. II is now clear 10 every one
even 10 the credulous spectators who adj.
vanced money 10 Santa Anna-that The reign
Of tn despot is hurrying 10 close. Already
he lld condescended TO offer terms to his op-
p,r MS, and even hiItS at the adoption OF a
liberal policy in return for the continuance oil
his reign, but with no hore that his overiureS
would or could be accepted. As usual, before
beating final retreat, he has made ample
provision foI his family-the principle mem
bers Of which are now in security beyond the
Mexican fronter--and realized a handsome
fortune, we presume, with which he intends
10 do everything, except paying his debts
The success Of The revoluIloniStS is no Longer
doub full, for the lmperialisls have relreated
before them in every instance, nOtwSthsla and

rawlings oil C Stro. Santa Anna has played his
last card and lost the trick. The game may
be fairly claimed by Alvarez and his friend o.
the Rio Grande; aud so certain is this that the
people OF The United States may begin to spec.

Dress.

Horace Mann, in lis lectures on Woman,
.Lus treats the Subiect;
ais the world al .unatic hospital, that some
times a lady's dress, should be twice her
height, and anon but half Of il; that SCme-
times it should expand 10 the orb, Of farth-
ingale, (when surely there was no want Of
amplitude in 'woman'S sphere,') and then be
shruGken in swaddling bands that sometimes
il should be ,railed downwardS TO sweep the
earth, and then built up turrei-like, on tine
top of the head, so that, as Addison said Of
the women Of his time, their faces were in the
middle of them and that sometimes The neck
should lie be-ruffled in the ElizabetIan Sllye,
and laid bare, with o vast anatomical mistake as
toitS neither boundary. This last unseemllneSs
bappens to be the shame Of our day. When
that Turkish officer, Amin Bey, on his late
visit TO this country, attended some fashiona-
BILE parties at Washington, he remarked, that
on going INTO our society, he expected TO see
'as smany' OF American ladies', but not 'as much.
7 he more private exposures Of the Mode! Ar.
lists were broken up as scandal +; but they
have amply revenged themselves by taking

The Shadow of Life.
"All that lives must die.

"All that lives must die.
Passing through nature to eternity"
Men seldom think OF the great event OF
death, until the dark shadow falls across their
own path, hiding forever their eyes The faces
OF the loved one whose living smile was the
sunlight OF their existence. Death is the great
antagonsm Of life, and The cold thought OF the
tomb is the keleton in III our fears.
We do not want to go through The dark val
ley, although its passage may lead TO para.
disc; and, with Charles Lamb, we do not wish
10 lie down in the mouldy grave, even with
Kings and Pri 'ces for our bed fellows. But
the fiat of nature is inexorable. There is no
appeal or reprieve from the great law that
doemS us all 10 dust. We flourish and fade
like the leaves Of the forest, and the fralesl
flower that blooms and wiihers in day, has
not a fraler hold on life than the mghtieSt
monarch that ever shook the earth by his foot
steps. Generations of men appear and vanish
like the grass, and :he countless multitude
that swarm the earth day, will to morrow
disappear like footprints on the shore;
''Scon as the ris ng tide shall beat,
Each trace will vanish from the sand"
In The beautiful drama Of "ion," the in
stinct of Immortality, so eloquently uttered by
the death-devoted Greek, finds deep re-
sponSe in every thoughtful soul.
1t is natures prophecy Of life TO come
When about 10 yield his yorng existence as a
sacrifice to fate, his be'rohed Clemanthe asks
if they shall not meet again, 10 which he re-
plies, 81 have asked that dreadful question
of the hills 1ha: look eternal: OF The flowing
streams that tow forever; of the stars, among
whose fields my raised spirit hath walked in
glory. All were dumb. But while gaze
upon thy living face, feel there is something
in thy love which mantleS through its beauty,
that cannot wholly perish We shall meet
egain, Clemanthe.

Funny Scene.

The ferry boat between this city and Cam

ing little pleasant and the lady passengers,
which by The way comprised only about q

was heard,
'Men Cot! Men Cot wife is going 10 be

InStantrr the ladies all rushed into the ladies'
cabin, and sure enough, there sat florid spec

watch at the door, while others made prep

At times when there chances TO be heav,

is one brilliant glare, Illuminating The beav

times the red light resting on the groves an
clouds, is for nome mt dimmeG by The rolln
volumes of smoke curling in The dark fanssti
