The WAY THEY Marry SOMETIMES, l. Is
DIANA.-Our Hoosier friends have way Of
their own of INDUCING their passions and SEN
timents, even TO the sacrifice, sometimes of con-
ventionalilies. We have heard Of an instance
in which father and son married two sisters
the young man marrying first and the father
taking liking to his daughier-in-law, sought
the acquaintance Of her sister, proposed, and
was married TO her. Thus, in addition to the
natural sisterly connection which existed, one
sister was made step-mother and the other step
daughter and daughter.in-law to her own sister
Each party having issue, it is novelty to trace
The relationship Of the offspring 10 the "old
folks" and TO each other. The old gentleman
grandfather and uncle to his sons children,
while his better half stood both as grandmother
and aunt to the same hopeful scions. The
young man became his fathers bIolher-in-law,
and enjoyed The same relationship TO his cruel
step mother. while he wss both uncle aud half
brother 10 his fathers children. The dcscen-
dants OF each have eventually become 70 enisn-
gled in the ties Of cDnssnguiniiy, that al last
accounts the Oldest son Of one Of the parties
was endeavoring 10 prove, upon genealogical
principles, that he was his sisters grandfather.
We hear that 'poliiics makes strange bsdfel-
lows" we have certainly shown that love and
matrimony sometimes make strange relation

The OLD MAN AND THE D0cToR.-An old

POSITION IN SLEEPING.

1t is better TO 60 10 sleep on the right side,
for then the stomach is very much in the posi-
ton of bottle turned upside down, and the
contents are aided in passing out by gravitation
If one goes 10 sleep On the left side, the opera
ton of empiying the stomach of its contents is
more like drawing water from well. After
going TO sleep, let the body take its own posi-
ton. If you sleep on your back, especially
soon after a hearty meal, the weight Of the d.
gestive organs, and that of the food, resting on
the great vein Of the body, near the back bone,
congresses it, and arrests the flow Of the blood
more or less If the arrest is partial, the sleep
is disturbed, and there are unpleasant dreams.
If the meal has been recent or hearty, the ar
rest is more decided, and the various sensations,
such as falling over a precipice, or the pursuit
of wild beast, or other impending danger,
and the desperate effort 10 get rid of it arouses
US that sends on the stagnating blood, and we
wake in fright, or trembling, or Precipitation,
or feeling Of exhaustion, according to the de-
gree of stagnation, and the length and strength
of the effort made TO escape the danger. But
when we are not able to escape the danger,
when we do fall over the precipice, when the

POETRY.
TO AN OLD PLAYMATE.
ny BARRY CORNWALL.

Dost thou still remember met
remember thee and thine,
When the young and careless hours
All were thine and mine;
When we hid our eyes in flowers,
Laughing at the ruling powers,
Dreaming life divine.
Dreams of books, or barren learning,
Troubled not our summer sleep;
Genius Gust alit) was burning
In the hearts recesses deep;
O'er the sunny waters sailing,
Want, nor wo, nor friendship failing,
Taught us then to weep.
Life has lost its sweetest season,
Spring has shrunk to winter cold,
And, for some bad earthly reason,
We (who once were young) are old.
Dimmcd are all our sunshine glories,
And our thousand pleasant stories
All are past and told
Yet, life's thoughtful angel heeth
Through gentle, calmer air;
And q hand that no one sccth
Shields us from despair:
So, though autumn falls in showers,
We will trust to brighter hours,
AS when we hid our eyes in flowers,
And dreamed the world was fair.

WHAT MAKES A MAN.

a truthful soul, loving mind,
Full of affection for its kind,
A spirit firm, erect and free,
That never basely bends the knee.
That will not bear feathers weight
OF slavery's chain, for small or great,
That truly speaks from God within,
That never makes a league with sin;
That snaps the letters despots make,
And loves the truth for its own sake;
That worships God and him alone,
And bows no where but at His throne;
That trembles at no tyrant's nod,
A soul that fears no one but God;
And thus can smile at curse or ban;
This is the soul that makes man.
