How to Marry a Fortune.

which he locates in that city:
ga young man of fine family, though
impoverished BY the revolution, aspired
to post under government, to occupy
which 1t was necessary to furnish a Ger.

from his friends, and, at last, lit upon an

"a young man, occupying an honora
bic position, wishes to marry lady well
brought up, and possessed of two hun
dred and fifty franes''
1.-Two hundred and fifty francs are but
fifty dollars, and. as there are MANY wo-
men In the world who would be glad to
purchase young, handsome, and hon.
orably connected husband, on such mod
crate terms, 1T was quite natural that the
advertiser, in the course of three days dur
ing which his notice appeared in public,
should have received many letters and
applications. The young man addressed
note to each of the applicants, appoint

all to come and look at him. On the

said, the company numbered full two

Grandfather told the children, .one day,
that their favorite cousin Ned was COM
ing to make him visit; whereupon they
danced with glee, and clustered about
Cinderella to tell her what dear, hand
some, merry cousin Ned was.
Why did Cinderella's eyelashes fall so
suddenly when at last he came? And
why did cousin Ned, from among the
children who surrounded him, glance at
Cinderella with such an air of satisfac-
tion on his handsome face? And why
was old Mr.. Marvel so little surprised.
when his governess became Mrs. Edward
Gray. Ga
Long after the wedding day, it trans
pired that it was Frederic Carnes' enthu-
siastic praise of her sister, which had led
Gray to seek an introduction TO Miranda
Mute. And when the young man found
she was only removed farther from him
by his visits to the house, it was at Gray's
own instigation that his uncle Marvel had
sought goVerness.
They make one family now, the Mar
vsls and the Grays, have one house and
one fortune. Cinderella enjoys her home
more because of the fine old man who
sits by the ireside, and the orphans whose
little feet patter about the floors.
Miranda Mute appears sometimes
among her sisters guests, beauty still
but the wife of a grey old man, widow
er and member OF Congress when she
met him first. In return for one winter
at Washing gton she must now nurse him,
peevish and gouty as he is, for score or
two of years.
Gifted with no imagination, Melissa's
learning was all dead letter. She has
given up Greek; and geometry too, ex-
ccpt SO far as consists in sewing elliptics
and cupids upon old garments, as she sits
year after year in Cinderella's nursery.
Cinderella entertains her husbands S
friends with the same quiet ease and abi-
ity with which she formerly constructed
bonnets and made pies and Edward
Gray estcems his wife above the fortune
he brought from India.
But still he spends money as one who
appreciates its worth; their home is very
luxurious, a favorite resort of the gay and
good and gifted, and a centre of all re
fning, genial influences.
All. how often what we call labyrin-
thine mazes of accidents, are clues instead
which gentle Clotho spins with care to
guide US toward our destiny! But in our
lmpatience we tear, till we become our
selves entangled in the web, and find thus
our saddest hindrance in wha, might have
been our surest help.

At school and at home we called her

forth a determination of its own, that plain.

How plainly Lean see her enter the
school-room now! Just late enough to
be marked for tardiness, and early enough
to hear the tedious exhortation which we
dreaded worse than our Greek. She was

A Big Story or a Big Snow Bank.

The following is letter from Essex,
Mass, dated Friday, Jan. 80, 1857:
In the snow storm on the night of the
18th, the dwelling of Mr.. William Per
kins, a good sized two-s story frame house,
located under the brow of hill, in the
town of Essex, Mass, was completely
buried in drift above the chamber win
dows, inasmuch that the occupants were
unable to ascertain when it was morning.
except by the clock. Mr.. CoggswelI, ,one
Of the neighbors, sheveled away the snow
from one of the chamber windows, when
Mr. Perkins took the sash out, and thus
obtained egress. He was obliged to dig
lhirty seven feet of arch-way between the
house and barn, and towards the nearest
road, &c. The snow above one of these
arches was eight feet in depth. The
pressure of the large body OF snow be-
tween the hill and the back side of the
house was so great as to spring nearly all
the doors, rendering it difficult to shut
some of them; and it was at one time
feared that the building would be pushed
from the under pinning when the snow
should be removed from the opposite side
But by dlnt of laborious shoveling the ap
pretended difficulty was obviated. Non,
of the "oldest inhabitants" in these part
have any legends of archways and snow
shoes, which surpass this occurrence.

Noble and Christian Enterprise.

The Methodists, ever foremost in works
of Educational and Christian philanthro.
py, have established a Colored Peoples
at Xenia, in this State, styled Wilbefforcs
University. The institution has been in
augurated under the auspices of the Gin

copal Church, other Conferences in the
West concurring, for the better educa-
ton of the eolored youth of our country.
Many religious denominations are repre-
sented in the Board of Trustees, and it is
designed to unite and engage the efforts
of all Christians and philanthropists in
endowing and sustaining literary insti-
tuition of high order.
A valuable and beautiful property near
Xenia has been purchased, embracing
ffty-two acres of land, with an edifice Of
two hundred rooms, well adapted to, and
ample for college purposes. Nine Gotta
ges are included, suitable for residences,
for teachers, the property having been.
improved at cost of $50, 900 for fash.
ionable watering place. It has. been pur-
chased for the University at SIS, ,Ooes-
The location is a very eligible one, and,
tie institution opens under favorable aus
pices. Both sexes are received, and may
pursue either partial or thorough course
l.of instruction. The winter session will
commence November 18th, and continue
twenty weeks. Rev. John F. Wright, of
Cincinnati. is President of the Wilber-
force University.
Of the usefulness and success of the
Institution, there can be no doub'. The
colored population of the Free States in

rapid increase. Some have been educa-
ted under great disadvantages, and many
thirst for knowledge. Education is the
great elevator Of man of every race, and

lightened, to take higher stand in the
respect and esteem Of their countrymen.
