CONTROLLING TEMPER-The husband of la
day of fiery temper says that before their mar
riage he was warned of her fiery disposition,
and to test the accuracy of the information,
one evening, as he sat next to her at dinner he
managed cleverly to jog the servants elbow,
as plate of mock turtle was offered her, which
of course was upset over the young lady's white
dress of tule lace. No complaint, not even a
frown being cvinced, the delighted suiter con-
eluded that what he had heard was q mistake,
and the marriage took place; but soon the la
dy's real character displayed itself, as is always
the ease after marriage, but never before, and
his wife, like human Stromboli, was subject
to fiery eruption every ten minutes upon an av-
erage. "How is it my DEAR" said the "happy'
husband, "that having such bad temper, you
stood the ordeal by soup so well ?" "Why,"
answered the lady; ~ may have appeared diff
dent at the time, but, good heavens you
should have gone into my room afterwards and
seen the marks of my teeth on the bed-post ~

The Union Endangered by n Louisville La
dY-A EerrYmnn Turned Union Saver.


A mistake exceedingly annoying to the par
ties concerned, at the time but at which they
now laugh most heartily, occurred yesterday
afternoon.
A lady from Louisville, KY, came to this
city for the purpose of spending few days
with lady friend, bringing with her young
female slave to look after little responsibility
with which the lady happened to be burthened
Yesterday, the two ladies, with the "colored''
girl, took carriage, and crossed into Coving-
ton by the Vine street ferry, and after driving
about the town, and admiring the beauties of
our sister city, started on their return. Unfor-
tunately, both ladies happened to have very
dark complexions-a few shades lighter, it IS
true, than some of the ''chattels'' who owe their
''pride of birth" to accident Of oCnership-but
still darker than most fair ladies OF Northern
cline.
With the some,Chat darker companion, they
directed the driver to return, and as he drove
upon the ferryboat, on the Covington side, the
ferryman advanced for his fare. Upon taking
look inside the carriage to count the passen-
gers, he was astonished to see what he mistook
for three "cOlored'' women, and thinking that
an attempt was being made to evade the "eom-
promise Of the Constitution about which the
politicians prate so much, by escaping from sla-
very he Indignantly ordered the driver to turn
about and leave the boat The ladies eXpostu-
lated, but to no purpose. The ferryman de-
manded their ''papers," and none had they be-
yond the currency Of the country, but that
would have had less weight than gold with an
old Castillian soldier at the door of Alonzo's
dungeon. No explanation would satisfy-no
assurance would enable them to cross the Ohio
upon that ferry-boat. The tOllmen could dis
tincty see one tawny face, and had suspicion
of the others. So the driver was compelled to
turn back and leave the boat, which he did,
while the ladies vented their indignation in
gancos from dark eyes, sharper than barbed
arrow.
The difficulty, however, was speedily RENE
died on the return of the other ferry-boat-the
one upon which the party had crossed the river
from the Ohio side-the captain of which recog-
nized them, and gave them "free conduct" to
our own city. OF course the ladies had to tell
the story of their wrongs to their friends at the
hotel, and were compelled to endure many a
joke and laugh at their adventure, and the price
at which they held themselves as "property."-

A Gard FROM DIR. j. G. YOUNG,s Private


n Medical Oice-To the AfIITeted-In this age of pro-
progress when science almost miraculous everything in
place is looked upon not worth notice. In view
this fact Dr. Young (corner of Montgomery and Cali
orna streets stairs has concluded TO leave the beat
track hitherto pursued by most scientific physicians
hat Of waiting for the public to find alone and pub
lish to the world much may be- his knowledge of
the healing to let those in need of assistance know
where they find relief without being imposed upon.
In continuation of this subject Dr. Young would say
that for the past ten he has pursued the practice Of
medicine in Of the largest cities In the United States
with the highest success and that his standing ply
scian is without repToach having at time been lee
the University of Pennsylvana venrea diseases
Upon these considerations Dr. Young has confidence in
introducing himself to the public, knowing that they will
sustain well earned merit.
The following few Of the many testimonials which
have appeared in the public journals within the last few
years:
TFrom the Boston Medical Journal1
Although opposed to the system Of advertising
for good and sufficient still deem but justice
that Dr. Young is Of the most Industrious and
interchangeable voares Of medical science in the United
States.
From Professor Jackson.
The subscriber il personally acquainted with Dr. Young
ard has Tc of his practice, and bear testimony
tc his merits as practitioner.
From the New York Herald
The emncnce of this distinguished gentleman in his pro-
esson and the very extended opportunities possessed by
him for the observation Of vcnerea disease makes services
invaluable to those afflicted with the above complaints
From the Whig and Advertiser
All afflicted with pr vate complaints should il possible
consult Dr. Young, whose medical education is not
passed by any Physician in the Country. In his skill hon
aud integrity, all may rely with safety while most Of
the medical practitioners in this city without honesty
respectabty their pretesoDs being grounded in gno
and assumption.

HOPE.

Say, "IVhat Is hope" If set on earth,
A moments fash, meteor bright
shooting star without the gloom,
Then lost in the returning night
An echo of the heart within
A mocking bird which seems to sneer
As light just dawns TO set again,
Begins smile and ends tear.
Say, "what is hopeS" If fixed on wealth,
A thought of gold, jeweled dream;
promising bliss which never comes,
A passing bubble ON the stream
A gldcd, gaudy, gittering, thing
An insect dancing through its hour,
Its breadth of life the sunbeam's blaze,
But gone when clouds of darkness lower.
Say "What is hope?" If bent on Christ,
The Christ of heaven the Christ ofl0ye;
Our surest anchor, faiths best child,
A mirrored view of joys above.
When sickness comes, tits by our side;
When death would soul and body sever,
1t whispers still, '"Tis but the grave,
And life beyond is life forever.
Then be this hope our guardian here,
And warn us from each worldly leayen,
Shining like rainbow, through the clouds,
Bright, glorious, grand, with hues Of heaven
