LOVE ps. MINISTRY.

{ "The course of true love never did
run smooth" A young minister, at
tached to an Old School Presbyterian
church, in this city, has for some time
past been paying his addresses to IA
lady of wealth, who resides in Virgin
in, who we understand has been divor-
ced, her first marriage being a forced
one. The minister's congregation
heard Of the intended match, and n
meeting ofthe trustees, or proper off
cess, was called to take the matter into
consideration. The rule of the church
iorbiddinsA minister to marry with a
divorced woman, was pointed out to
the lover, and he was then asked to re-
sign his love and hopes of connubial
bliss. The minister, after mature de-
liberation, determined to resign his
place in the church, along with its sal
ary. and cling to her to whom, n,
doubt, his hearts best affections have
been gwen Philadelphia L,dges.
The reverend gentleman alluded to
above went to Virginia, where the
lady lives, to claim the boon for which,
he had resigned his occupation and
salary; but the lady. on hearing Of his
resignation, declined marriage. giving

THE STUMP TAILED COW.
A JERSEY ANEcDorE.

A good many years ago man stole
a COW from MOrristown, n. j., and
drove her to Philadelphia for sale
She was common cow enough, ex-
cept that sho had lost all her tail but
about six inches. The thief fearing
that by the shOrtness of her tail, he
might be traced, had procured in some
way, probably from slaughter-housc
another cows tail, which he fastened
so ingeniously to the short tall that
it was not 10 be known that it had
regularly grown there.
As soon ~ the Jcrseyman misse d
his cow, he set off for Philadelphia,
thinking she would probably be car
ried there for sale, and it happened
that when he came to the ferry, he
got into the same boat that was car
rying over his COW, and the fellow
who stole her. As it was natural that
he should have his thoughts very
much upon cows, he soon began to
look at this cow with great attention.
She was indeed, very much like his
cow, he thought, Her mark agreed
wonderfully and she had exactly the
same impression of face, but then the
expression of her tail was so very diff
fcrcnt. 1t must be supposed that the
new owner of the COW felt rather un-
comfortable during the examination,
for hc soon saw that was the person
whose property he had stolen, and
was very uneasy lest he should take
hold other tail, which he looked at so
continually.
Upon the whole he thought il best
to divert his attention in some way, if
possible, and therefore steps up to
him and says, "Nciglbor, that is a
fine COW of mine, won't you buy her?
You seem to know what good cow
is" "Oh, dear me-" says the other
I've just had COW stolen from me-
"Well,' says the thief, I'm sorry TO
hear they've gone TO stealing cattle
but I'll sell Oft, and you could not bet
ter replace your loss than by buying
this cow; I'll warrant she's az good a.
yoursr' "Nhy." saws the Jcrscvman
"she was exactly like this one. only
that she had no tail to speak of, and
ifthia one had not such long tail,
Id swear it was my cow Every
body now began to look ut the cows
tail, but tho thief stood nearer to
it than anybody, and taking hold oft
so rs just to cover The splicing with
his left hand, and with jack knife in
right, pointing to the tail, he said, $50
if this cows tail was only this long
you'd swear she was yours!' THAT
| would" says the other who began
to be very much confused at the le.
semblance to his COW, except in this
one particular, when the thief with
sudden cut of his knife took off the tail
just about an inch above the spling,
and throwing it overheard, bloody as
it was, turned to the other and said,
now swear it's your cow" The he-
wildermcnt Of the poor man was now
complete, but as he had seen tail cut
off and saw the blood trickling from
it, he could of course, lay no claim to
the animal from the shortness Of the
tail; indeed, here was proof positive
that this was not his COW, so thief, 90
ing over with him sold the COW with
out any further fear of detection.

MR, EproR:


Will you allow one who
has been sending you at different
times, some little scraps Of rhyme, to
try her hand st dull monotonous
prose? well, what shall be my
subject? Politics.? All! whoever
heard of a lady writing politics9 And
then il the universal opinion of the
"lords of creation" is to be credited,

course cannot write anything.
Our little heads at the best can only
contain smattering of the principles
of science as taught in books, little
of the ways ofthe world, &C., and we
have gone the length Of our chain
But do not mistake yourselves, kind
sirs. A thousand thoughts find lodg-
ment in these little brains of which you
know nothing; a thousand opinions
arc weighed and re-weighed and their
comparative merits scanned and tested
before the tribunal Of reason as she
sits on the throne of our minds. We
have hoaghts-dep, true thoughts. =
When we see the flag of our coun-
try, floating in the breeze, and hear
the loud plaudits Of the multitude in
favor Of those undying principles,
which should ever govern us as a ma

SOCIAL GATHERINGS.

These suggestions from life Illus.
t,uied are well worthy Of adoption:
Assemblies for social converse and
recreation are in many ways bencfi-
cial. They are not frequent enough
in our towns and villages.
At the recent literary festival at the
Crystal Palace, we were for:ibly in
pressed with the desirableness Of hav-
ing such assemblies frequently-say
once a month during the winter-.-ai-
ferding to all an opportunity Of prac-
ticing the agreeable arts, and Of be-
coming acquainted with agreeable
people. We all confine ourselves too
much to our own clique, sect, circle,
or family. There are delightful per-
sons all around us whom we ought to
know, but do not; persons whose
knowledge is different from our knowl,
edge, whose experience il different
from our experience; between whom
and ourselves, therefore, there could
be- a pleasant and instructive inter-
change Of opinions, impressions, and
facts. Life is short and difficult; why
should we needlcssly abridgc its pleas
ures? Why not enjoy all we can?
1t does people good merely to array
themselves in becoming and attractive
garments; shedding their coats, as il
were, aud coming out all new and
glossy. Still more beneficial is it for
us to lay aside dull care, aud look ON
our fellow ,nortals with glad and shi-
ming faces. But most serviceable OF
all is it to gucnch the little sclfshness
OF our Ordinary walk and conversa-
ton, and devote ourselves occasionally
for whole evening to the single bu-
siness ofbeing agreeable. A man il
generous in company, If only for very
shame. The Gospel, ACCORDING to
Grab, is incredible in the society OF
well-drcsscd and wcll-bshaved ladies
and gentlemen. Everybody become.

MY NATIVE FLAG FOREVER
Lines ~ritten from under the Flag ef til,
Capitol.

They say I do not love thee,
Flag of my native land,
Whose meteOr-folds above me,
To the free breeze expand.
Thy broad stripes proudly streaming
And thy stars SO brightly cleaning.
They say | would forsake thee,
Should some dark crisis lower;
That recreant, | should make thee
Crouch to see a foreign power,
Seduced by license ample,
On thee, blest flag, to trample.
They say that bolts Of thunder,
Cast in the forge of Rome,
May rise and bring thee under,
Flag of my native home;
And with one blow disscvcr
My heart from thee forever!
False are the words they utter,
Ungenerous their brand,
And rash the Oaths they nlttcr,
Flag of my native land!
While still in hope above me
Thou wavcst and love thee.
God is my loves first duty.
To whose eternal name,
Be praise for all thy beauty,
Thy grandeur and thy fame;
But ever have rcckOned
Thine, my native flag, my second!
Woe to the foe or stranger,
Whose sacrilegious hand
Would touch thee, or endangcr
Flag of my native land;
Though some would fain discard me
Mine should BE- raised to guard thee
Then wave, thou first Of banners,
. And in thy genial shade,
Let crccds, opinions, manners,
Promiscuously be- laid
And there all discord ended,
Our hearts and souls be blended
Stream on, stream on before us
Thou lnbarum Of light,
While in one general chorus
Our vows to thee we plight.
Uniaithial to thee never.
My native flag forever!

selves rudcly cast aside, our careful,
tender, ail-reaching devotion thrown
back upon our hearts, there to freeze
and may be chill almost to death every
other good and noble feeling Of that
once tender and loving heart. Thus
when the wind someth, and with its
rude sweep, bends and breaks the little
flower until it dies, we wish we were
like the flower and would gladly die
too. Well, what digression! ex-
claims my friend, whom invited to
take . walk with me, ! thought you

here we are at the end Of Main street;
and you haven't shown me anything
or told me anything uncommon; but
if you will be 80 kind asto tell me

are certainly the finest looking men

lar friends, Henry Buchan and Lewis

don, and had, though they had been
there but a short time, formed many
friends and stood very high as moral
and temperate men. Henry Buchan
was between "a Il 5 years old, of tall
commanding appearance, eyes dark
grey, the free expressive glance, de-
noting a mind formed in natures
deepest mould, the mouth beautifully
chisclcd and almost two feminine in its
expression. had it not been redeemed
by the intelligent expansc Of the noble
brow and ma:chless expression of the
dark grey eye. lis heart was a type
ofhis mind, pure and flll of noble and
generous feelings, that prompted him
to deeds Of justice and mercy. Lewis
Stanley was tho opposite Of his friend
in many things. Possessed of a mod
crate share of moral courage, a mind
sufficiently strong, but not 90 well bal
lanccd as his friend, Harry's. He was
moreover, a gay young man, full of
life and youthful vigor; as handsome
as an Adonons in form and face, eyes
whose deep dark blue Wed with the
modest violet Of the vale, sparkling
brilliant laughing eyes, the free open
glance bespoke heart at ease and
free from life's corroding cares; a
cloud may some time have rested on
his heart, but was soon chased away
by the sunshine ofyouth's free happy
thoughts and left no lasting mark be-
hind. 1t is ever thus with youth; it is
the spring time Of life. Then our
thoughts are unshackled and free, our
hearts full Of nobler and purcr feel
ings, unbounded aspirations, free as
the wing Of the bird as it scars aloft in
it, airy home.
When hope wreathed the temple Of youth with
bright flowers,
And whispered in soft siren tones TO his heart,
