The JOYS of Matrimonv.

Grace Greenwood, (Mrs. Lippincott,)
in an address to- Mothers, in the last num-
Der of the Little Pilgrim thus writes
"Since / last addressed you, another year
has passed over us-a peaceful and fortu-
nate year to most of you, I trust, yet
doubtless bringing to the happiest hearts
and homes something of change and sor.
row. To me it has brought the most pro-
founda and sweet, the most solemn and sa-
cred happiness of womanhood-for within
this year | have been Joined to " the great
one of you. Oh, if there is a time when
woman may feel that she, like Mary of
old is " blessed among women" it is when
she folds in her arms her first born child
feels the touch of a tender little hand thrill
on her heart strings-feels upon her cheek
the first soft breath of a life immortal
sees family twinkiing in the misty depths
of sleepy little eyes a love that shall yet
brighten the world for her. This Joy IN
speakable, this holy triumph of maternity,
is Heavens abundant compensation for
all that is suffered by woman-for all that
is denied to her. With existence renewed
and freshened by the inhowing of this pure
rill from the divine fountain of life-with
nv heart made more tender and loving by
the sweet, mysterious influences by which
babyhood, mighty in helplessness, and,
without speech most eloquent, comes to
us-I feel ike consecrating myself anew
to the service of such as Jesus took in his
arms and blessed-and of you, whom ma
tcrnity makes kin 0 her once elected to
the higest JOY and deepest anguish of NOR
tality-her whom be most loved and most
tenderly remembered in his last hour"

ta- II is said that Fanny Morton, a cole.
brated English actress, being Kissed, in her
youthful days, confronted the audience and
asked" Which do you dislike, nv PLAYING
or my person p 1.-The playing" was the
cry from all sides. well that consoles
me- she replied my playing can be bet
tered, but my person cannot be altered."-
She afterwards became a great favorite.-
From this incident may be drawn a useful
lesson-the person cannot be altered, but
tile mine may. 1t is susceptible of continual
improvement and polish. And O, if but a
1.-THE Of the labor bestowed upon the former,
by the ladies Of our county, were lavished
upon the cultivation Of the mind, how much
better calculated would they be to discharge
the solem duties Of life. And, girls, let me
whisper a word in your ears-every sensible
man osteems an intelligent woman, more
than he does an ignorant beauty, though she
be adorned equal to the Queen of Sheba.-
Allow me to recommend the following as
appropriate adornments:
Let your car rings he Attention, encircled
by the pearls Of Refinement. Lot the dia-
monds Of your necklace be Trutu, and the
chain OF Christianity. Let your bracelets
be Charity, ornamonted with the pearls of
Gentlencss. Let your hosom,pin be Modes,
", set with Compassion. Let your finger,
rings be Affection, set with the diamonds of
Industry. Let your girdle be simplicity,
with n taSsle of Good humor. Let YOUR garb
be Nirtue-your drapery Politeness. Let
your shoes be Wisdom, secured with the
buckle Of Perseverance.

Tears tue Dew OF THE Subtitle tear
itself often CLOVIS like a diamond on the cheek
where the rose and lily blend. It's moral
beauty as a perfect daguerre of compassion
and benevelence, is still greater. 1t shone
thus on tho Saviour's cheek ct the tomb of
Lazarus, and when he wept over Jerusalem.
1t still shines on his disciples in their missions
Of mercy. There are, indeed, tears Of deceit,
like those tabled Of the crocodile. Let them
pass. None but a fallen angel would gather
them up. There are tears Of gratitude, OF
joy. These sparkle like the morning.

a SENSIBLE GfRL.-No ono can fail to ad-
mire sterling good sense and noble indepen.
denee, especially when exhibited in opposi.
ton to the silly and ridiculous customs and
notions Of sHobish society. A correspondent
gives a sample, A young lady was at a
boarding school. Her unaffected manner and
sprightliness won the affections of many of
the young ladies, who were full of their kind
Offices, until one day they inquired the occu-
patton Of her father. Our young friend
perceiying the drift Of their inquiries. gave
them to understand that her father was a
shoemaker when many Of them were struck
with horror at her vulgar origin, and a
change took place in their conduct towards
her. She, however, though fully understan-
ding them, remained quiet.
After a while, the father Of the young lady
visited the school. As he was a good looking
man, and as they observed the principal and
Others treating him with such great Difference
and respect, the scholars were led to inauirs
OF their instructress who he was and what
was his business; and on being told that he
was the father Of Miss H., and that he was
a member Of Congress, they we're filled with
amazement, and Immediately made an al
tsmpt 10 renew their attentions as formerly !;
put u was too late. Sac looked upon their
conduct with such contempt that they were
oo'ged tp keep a respectable distance. while
those who treated her kindly without regard
70 her fathers supposed occupation, were
ever afterwards her favorites.

Fireside Pleasures.

1t is around our family fresides that we
find pure and perfect happiness. There the
heart expands and shed. its genial influence
on all around; kind feelings and heartfelt
affections are engendered there, and each
bright dream and fancied vision Of the future
Is formed in The sunlight of the hearts hap
piness around our own fireside.
Ask the atfectionate wife, the devoted
mother and loving children, as they draw
close around the hearthside, where their
happiest hours are spent. Ask the fond
father, as he comes home from the toll and
business of the day, where he finds life's
purest pleasures and with one accord they
will each and every one nj Wer-" around
our own familiar freside."
Home the centre of our Joys and our
hopes tits around thy blessed altar that
LIES purest and most sacred lessons are
learned and Oh {! what a dreary thing it
must be, to be homeless, to have no "bright
eyes to watch our coming, and look brighter
when we come"-to feel alone and desolate
In this cold, hollow world! OF We who have
never felt this worst of desolations-ye whose
best affections bind ye still, who have nc
link broken, no yearnings unfulflled, fold to
your hearts the precious blessing that lives
in domestic ties and speaks in household love:
and greet kindly and gently those whose life
IS lonely-who look around them and find
no answering gaze, who pine with many
tears for one glimpse of the tenderness whose
living light is daily yours, who go forward
sadly and silently, with hone to love them,
save those who are angels in Heaven.

Down ON THE Fl. F. V."-The Ohio State

OF some of the "frst families it saws =
" They are too law to work and too respec-

Their chief delight is apple toddy and past

unpaid bill for a yankee piano."
Indeed! And the difference between this

he would defame, is-that he is not too re-

responsibility is to steal their negroes and ex-

is Cincinnati mean whiskey and calumnia-
