The house mother has her troubles, ave,
be she ever so gifted with that pleased Quail.
ty OF taking Thorn light and cheerfully. II Is
not pleasant for lazy ladies to get breakfast
over at that regular early hour which alone
sets household fairly agoing for day; nor
for uuarithmetical ladies', who have ALWAYS
reckoncd their accounts by sixpenccs, to put
down each item and persevers In balancing
periodically receipts and expenditure nor
for weakly, nervous, self-engrossed ladies to
rouse themselves sufficiently to put their
house in order, and keep it so, not BY occa-
sional spasmodio '.sctting to rights, - but by
general methodical overlooking Of all that Is
going ON therein. Yet, nnless all this is
done, i, Is in vain to insist on early rising, or
grumble about waste, or lecture upon neat
ness, cleanliness, and order. Tho servants
get to learn that "aiissis is ncver in time -
"Missis never knows about nnything.o She
may lecture till she is weary about neatness
and cleanliness put your head into
her room and see" For oil moral qualities,
good temper, truth, Kindness, and above ali
conscientiousness, il these are deficient in the
mistress, IL is idle TO expect them from ser
wants, or children, or any members Of the
family circle. II A Woman's Thoughts about

Mr.. Henry Erben, organ builder, and particu.
larry noisy City Reformer," ID in bit of scrape.
1t appears that Mr. Erben owned certain property
in Centre street, which was taken into the exten.
sion of Canal street. An equitable assessment was
made, and the city charged to pay Mr.. Erben S15,
sos as damages But upon Erbens property the
New-York Life and Trust Company had two mort
cages amounting TO $4,000, which in the event Of
sale must, of course, be paid. This deducted
would leave for Erben sc, sos. On the 10th of May,
lS55, Mr. D. Thompson, President of the Trust
Company and Mr.. Henry Erben jointly signed
receipt for amount of two warrants on the Treas
ury-one for Sl3,55O, and the other for ST.
255. The original awards upon the two lots
were $1,000 and S6,755, making Sl5,S05
as above while the sum paid was
S24, sos. Now how did the discrepancy occur
How is il that the difference amounts to exactly
the 50, 200 on mortgage! And further still how
happens it that the sum exactly divided between the
two warrants, $4,000 being added TO each, neither
more nor lessl Mr.. Erben pleads ignorance; but
he put his name within one inch of the figures
S24 sos when he signed the receipt, and could not
possibly have missed them. Is il u all likely that
business man selling valuable property would be
obyious of an error of 50, 900 Or shall we be-
lieye that if the error had been the other way Mr..
Erben would not have observed it OF course the
suppositon is incredible.
This matter has deeper Specification than that
Of o mere swndle. Mr.. Erben has been for years
one OF the most blatant accusers of the City Gov
erumeut: his constant iteration has BEEN They are
" all th;eyes-no honest men in the City Hal-the
people are robbed everywhere In February,
1853, he was foreman ofthe Grand Jury, and made
4 prtseniment which led to the famous inyestiga-
ton before Recorder Tillou and the indictment Of
certain members of the Common Council. Upon
the strength of this presentment, Mr. Erben
became the Ajax Of City Reform, and asloOked
upon with fear and trembling by the rats who
hang about the Treasury; and from that day
10 this no measure of retrenchment has been
thought of until il had been approved by the re-
msrkable foreman of the wonderful Grand Jury
In that very select and respectable but rather
slow body, the Reform Committee Erben was
q patriarch and high counselor; and on the street
his dictum has given fame and fate 10 many an am
bilious candidate. 1t may be matter Of little
consequence to the world that Henry Erben has
fallen, but the fall of leading reformer, of one
who had been looked up TO as a pattern of civic
virtue, is much to be deplOrei especially for the
example il affords With such evidences of moral
tui pitude, where shall we look for honest men!
As tie books are opened, and the people begin to
comprehend the system of villainy which permeates
aud controls the whole City Government, they Ger.
tsiny cannot be blamed if they come to the
