SATURDAY NIGHTS.

What blessed things Saturday nights are, and
what would the world do without them? Those
breathing moments in the march of life, those
little twilights in the broad and garish glare of
noon, when pale yesterday looked beautiful
through the shadows, and faces, changed long
ago, smiling sweetly-again the Sush when one
remembers "the old folks at home," and the
old arm chair, and the little brother that died,
and the little sister that was, ''translated."
Saturday nights make people human set
their hearts to heating softly, as they use to do
before the world turned them into wax drums,
and Jared them in pieces with tatoos.
The ledger closes with clash the IRON
doored vaults come to with bang up go the
shutters with will; click goes the key in the
lock. It's Saturday night, and business branch
es free again. Homeward no The door that
has been ajar all the week, gently closes behind
him, the world is shut out Shut in, rather
Here are the treasures, after all, and not in the
vault, not in the book-save the record in the
old family Bible-and not in the bank
May be you are bachelor, frosty and forty.
Then, poor fellow, Saturday nights are nothing
to you, Just as you are nothing to anything
Get wife, blue-eyed or black-eyed, but above
! all a true-eyed one-get home, no matter how
little-and a little sofa, just large enough to
hold two or two and half and then get the
two or two and a half into it on a Saturday
night, and then read this paragraph by the light
of your wife's eyes, and thank God and take
courage.
The dim and dusty shops are swept up, the
hammer is thrown down, the apron is dotted
and the laborer hastens homeward bound.

MRS. SHOWS LITERARY HUSBAND.

Yes, I'm Mrs. Peter Snow, an editors wife.
| well remember the day when Mr. snow asked
me to be his. | confess liked Mr.. Snow, and
thinking it would be very pretty thing to be
the wife of an editor, said yes as prettily as
| knew how, and became Mrs. Snow. have
seen ten years of married life, and find my hus-
band to be an amiabe, good natured man.
He always spends his evenings at home, and
he is in that respect a model man but he al
ways brings pile of exchanges, which is limit
ed only by the length of his arms, and reads,
while | patch the knees and elbows of our
boys pantaloons and coats. After we have had
Quaker meeting of an hours length, break
the silence by asking: "Mr. Snow, did YOU Or
der that coal lspoke to you about?"
"What did you say, my dear" he asks, after
few minutes silence.
"Did you order that coal | spoke to you
about?"
"Indeed my dear I'm sorry, but forgot all
about it. 1t shall come to morrow"
Another hours silence, which is relieved by
the baby crying and rather liking to hear a
noise of some sort, make no effort to quiet
him.
"My dear" said Mr.. S, after he had cried
minute or so, "hadn't you better give the baby
some catnip tea to quiet him. He troubles
me-"
The baby is still another hour passes with
out breath of noise. Becoming tired of ST.
lence, | take lamp and retire for the night,
leaving Mr. s., so engaged with his papers that
he does not see me leave the room.
Towards midnight he comes TO bed, and just
as he has fallen to sleep, the baby takes no
ton to cry again. rise as quickly as possible
and try to still him. While | am walking the
room with the small Snow in my arms our
neXt-a boy of three yearsw-begins to scream
at the top OF his lungs. What can l do
There is no other course but to call Mr.. s., so
call out;
Mr.. Snow! MIR. Snow!"
The third time he starts up and replies;

ECONOMY.

Now that the Winter has fairly come upon
us, and the searching cold will soon begin to
freeze the water that is not kept in a warm place,
it behoves the fremen in this part of the country
to look well to the fires in their Engine houses.
No doubt, in many of the small villages, the
citizens look upon the matter Of keeping fire
in the engine house as a useless expense, and
of no use, as they think that as they have but a
very few fires, and the engine is not of much
use, it is likely to continue so always. Now do
not be caught mapping, have the engine house
well banked up, and keep good fire there at
all times, it will not cost more than fifty dollars
to keep the fire, and if there should chance to
he fire, there would be no difficulty in realiz-
ing the amount expended. Another matter
that we have noticed in our travels about the
State.
You are all well aware that hose are very
costly, and that they will not last any great
length Of time unless they are properly used
In many engine houses we have seen hose lay
ing about the floor, as dry and as hard as though
it had never been oiled. Such hose would be
of no service whatever in case of a fire, and a
very cold day it would break off as short as
pipcstem. Now boys, look after these matters,
have the hose well oiled and rolled up, and hung
upon the pins. Always remember to have a
compliment on the hose reel. Keep the house
warm and the engine thawed out, the hose PHI
able, and then when fire does occur, you can
meet it with a will, and drive it out of sight in
hurry. A Chowder Party now and then
would tend to keep up an interest when there
are not many fires.

MILITARY DEMoRALzATIoN-The Provi.
dence Journal gives the following instances Of
military decentralization, which are supposed to
have happened somewhere in this great Repub-
lie, but the particular locality is not given =
"a valiant colonel was sentenced by court
martial to give up his sword which he did; bu,
soon afterwards his astonshed commander saw
him at the head Of his men with an uncommon.
ly long sword, and marching in all the conscious
ness of unquestioned rank. Where did YOU
get that sword?" Indignantly asked the superb
or officer. Il bought it, was the reply. The
other example is still more painful to record
because it shows a still more fragrant lack OF
discipline, without which the military is of very
little use. An officer had been tried BY court.
martial for some offence what it was we do moi
remembers perhaps for assuming the rank and
duties that appertained to higher grade He
was sentenced to be reprimanded, and to deliv.
er up his sword for thirty days. The reprimand
he bore with great equanimity; as for the sword
he informed the court that he had returned tha,
weapon to George Bakers store, where he had
hired it at the moderate rate of four-and-si
pence day, and he did not doubt that the
court might obtain it on the same terms, or ever
at discount from that price, in consideration
of the long time for which it was wanted

CHEAP TELEscoPE.-The New York Com
mercial Advertiser gives the following mode OF
making cheap telescope for family use in these
cometary times 1t is said to cost but few
shillings and to be equal to Golileo's telescope,
with which he made his great discoveries
procure from an optician 36 inch object
glass tthat is, convex glass, which produces a
focus of the suns rays at a distance of SO inch
es) and a one-inch eye-glass THAT is, convex
glass, producing focus at one inch.) Employ
tin plate maker to make two tin tubes one
thirty inches long, and about "A inches in di-
ameter; the other ten or twelve inches long,
and its diameter such that it will Just slide com
fortably inside the larger. The inside of these
tubes should first be painted or otherwise lined
with a dull black. At the end of the larger
tube an ingenious workman will find no difficult
ty in securing the object glass, so that no more
than an inch diameter of it shall remain expos
ed. and at the end of the smaller eye-glass must
be fixed, when the open end of one tube is in
serted into the open end of the other so that
the two ends of the glass shall be about 81
inches apart a telescope will be present which
will magnify the diameter of objects SO times !;
or, in other words, will make heavenly objects
appear 80 times nearer. With such telescope,
the satellites of Jupiter, the crescent of Venus,
and the inequalities of the surface of the moon
may be distinguished"
