a Hotty Question Settled.

At Young Mems Debating Society,
somewhere out in Illinois, the question Of
discussion was, (Which is the greatest evil
"a Seeding wife, or a smoking chimney?'
After the appointed disPutants had conclud-
ed the debate, a spectator rose and begged
the privilege of making few remarks on
the occasion. Permission being granted, he
delivered himself in this way:
Mr.. President-I'v been almost mad lis
tening to the debate of these youngsters.
They don't know anything about scolding
wife! Wait until they have one upwards Of
eight years, and been hammered and jam
mered and iawed at all the while--wail un-
Ill they have been scolded because the fire
wouldn't burn, because the oven was to hot,
because she cow kicked over the milk, be-
cause the sun shined, because the hens didn' I
Law, because the butter wouldn't come. be-
cause they are too soon for dinner, because
they are one minute too late, because they
slapped the young oues, BECAUSE they tore
their truwsers. or because Trey did anything
(whether they could hep it or not,) before
they talk Of the evils of a scoidin9 wife; why
Mr. President, I'd rather bear the clatter oi
hammer and stones AMI twenty tin pans,
and nine brass kettles, than the din, din, of Il
scodng wife. Yes, stree, them's my SEN
timents To my mind, Mr.. President, Il
smoky chimney is no more to be compared
10 a sco9dng wife than little nigger is to i
dark night"

Trying to .sIl a piamond.

The Bucyrus (Ohio) Journal relates the
story-of tarmer, in that county, who found
one day beautiurspecimeQ OF quartz rock,
which had all the appearance OF diarAond.
he took il to a leweler in Bucyrus. who by
way oi u 1ks tId him il WAS diam nd
and offered him $40, 900 for il. Tie far
.mer supposed it was worth more money;
he had read .! the Koll-i- nor, valued at mil
lions and refused. He took it to PITTS
burgh, and Il noted jeweler thefe hold him
that be did not know how much it was worth
but no house in the city was able to purchase
il. He eiook it to other jewellers, who pro-
nouueed il 30 diamond. He also took it TO
PhiladeIp Iphia and New York. The Journal
thus describes his adventures here:
Confidently he. walked into Ball, Black
g. Ce's., the eminent jewelers., aud deman-
ded an interviaw with the proprietors. Ii
was granted, Andeeur friend was usheFsd IN
TO a. a.privatsuro.,m, wheu he cooly turned the
key in the door, and TO the infnite surprise
of Bali. Black & CO., in forme Them thai be
had in hs pocket untold wealth. Ball,
Black & Co., congratulated him, and po-
litely requested him TO inform them what
earthly interest that fact could be 10 them.
He answered nothing, but slowly drew ;ron
the easl-pockei OF his vest the stone, and
asked how much it was worth. Ball, Black &
Co., answered, that in country where
stone was scarce, it would be worth so
much perch-they had really forgotten
the exact sum-but, if it would be any uc-
co,nIaodations they weuld send and inquire,
and wound up by asking what his business
was with them. "Business!'' he gasped !;
why to sell this diamond" They told
him they had no desire to invest in that Pc
culiar style of diamonds, ard without at
tempting to conceal their merrment, bow
ed him out. At Tlffany's, and all the 9th
err leading houses in that fine of trade be
met with the game success, and finally de-
termined that the jewellers Of New York.
as well as those OF Pittsburgh and Philad'a q
were in league to swindle him opt of the
diamondj aad so he determined to 60 to
Europe with it among the brokers OF Lon
don and Paris find q market for it. But
fortunately, just as he was on the point Of
emharking, he met with a merchant from Bu-
cyras who knew him, and who hnsly sue
ceeded in inducing him 10 fOr5go his Euro
pean tour for the time being, at least, and
brought him to his family. He still be-
lieves the stone to be din,nond, aMd viii
no doubt start soon upon anYtter wltd-goose
chase to dispose of it.

Love OF NArUnE.AND FLOWERS.

: The love of nature affords one of the purest
delights, and is implanted in every human
breast. Flowers, of all created things, are the
m ost innocent and beautiful, and afford plea
sure which has no faint. Nature is most lavish
in her gifts of beauty and adornments, but III
s. order to appreciats and enjoy them, it is neces
sary to listen to her voice and study her varied
teachings; in this way, they will be found to
inculcate tone of refinement, besides giving
Z the most pleasant and healthful employ
80 old and young, and to the wealthy and poor
q alike. s a
{ Every man should adorn his home-the dwell
ling of his wife and ehiidren-with attractive
objects, and with all of those various embellish-
rnents which will make it cheerful. W hat,
then, will tend more to this end than flower

.. and cheering the mind. of the behsldera-
If this be done, much has been accomplished
toward making home an abode of peace and
delight.
Where flowers are planted, the home becomes
tasteful residence, while its intrinsic value is
Y also greatly enhanced. Cultivated taste gives
3 beauty anil value to property, and thesmal
cost of flower garden, so far from being 9
s useless expense, some regard it, adds to the
money value of the premises. Horticulture
pursuits, on a small scale, are particularly a
dapted to ladies. natural fondness of how-
-fsers is an evidence of refined mind, and theil
facultiyation5 is calculated to create a deIicat
aitaste. If lady, therefore, learns to plant ant
Tss1ear. these tender and attractive objects, the
pleasure thus derived will be found to increase
in proportion to the effort put forth, and will
remain when others have departed.-N. Y
