unimportant events of life succeed one an
other. AS the snow gathers together, SO
are our habits formed no single fake that

The ORIGIN OF SoRRows.-We fancy
that all our affections are sent US directly
from above sometimes we think it in
piety and contrtion, but oftener in mo-
roseness and discomfort 1t would be
well, however, il we attempted to trace
the cause of them; we should probably
find their origin in some region Of the
heart which we never had well explored,
or ID which we bad deposited secretly,
on wors. indulgences. The clouds that
intercept the heavens from US, come not
from The heavens but from the earth.

the commission.
John returned late at night, looking
as though he had performed hard days

chant
Only part of them was the reply
Il bought all could lind; but there were
only eight hundred to be had
Eight hundred, Eight hundred what

Eight hundred pigs was the re-
ply. You told me to buy two Or three
thousand pigs; but they are not to be

HONORABLE CoNpITIoSs.-Many years
ago, in what is now tlourishiug city in
, the Granite State, lived stalwort black
smith, fond Of his pipe and of his Joke
He was also fond Of his blooming dausb-
Ter, whose many sraces and charms had
ensnared the affections Of a susceptible
young printer. The couple, after a NUT
ual season ofmutual billing and 90 ing.
Engaged themselves, and nothing but
the consent of the young lady's PARENT
prevented their union. To obtain this an
interview was arranged, Typo prepared
q little speech to astonish and convince
the old gentleman who Sat enjoying his
favoritc pipe, in perfect content. Typo
dilated upon the fact of their long friend
ship, their mutual attachment, their
hopes for the future and like topics, and
taking the daughter by the hand; said:
Il now, sir; ask your permission to
transplant this lovely flower from its
qarient bed'-but his 'phcelillks' over
came him, he forgot the reminder of his
rhetorical flourish, bl,lshcd, stammered,
and finally wound up with--'fron its
bed, into my otcn.
