selfish man is "forgive US our debts, "

have noticed that he who thinks eve.
ry man is a rogue, is very certain to see
one when he shaves himself. What big
rascal Diogenes must have been at that
rate.
have noticed that money is the fools

man jewel, the rich man s desire, the
covetous mans ambition, aud the idol of
all.

measured in this world by its success.

in hourly aspirations. BY what are these

If such are the visions of the heart, they
are leading it fearfully astray. and the

light of the morass, drawing its victim tC

We can fancy hundreds. of other cases, in
which the members Of the new profession Of
Truthtellers would be consulted. All Of
that large class who are justly distrustful Of
their own judgment would be glad to refer
delicate and dubious matters to men whose
business it weuld be to speak disagreeable
truths for proper reward No doubt the
new profession world suffer from the un-
professional falsity and Hattery of the un-
worthy; but consistent and uniform candor
and absolute veracity would secure TO the
deserving the great bulk of the consulta-
ton business. In an age when so many
men are paid for chicanery and deception;
it would be refreshing to see class estab-
lished whose emolument depended upon their
candor and veracity. We must say, how
ever. that we have very little present hope
of the establishment Of the profession Of
Truthtellcrs on the plan proposed.-Loais-

POTATOES AND PROGENY.

Mrs. S. C. Hall, in her Sketches Of Irish
Character, relates the following amusing
arecdote. 1t is all about certain Lady
Middleton, who, contrary to her most
anxious wish, was unblessed with any chill.
drsn. After an absence of several year,
with her liege lord in England, she returned
with him to reside for time on one Of theil
IRISH estates.
As the carriage drove up to the mansion,
she noticed several fine-lookipg children
about the gate, and having learned that
thAr mother was the wife Of the gate-porter
shedetermined to interrogate her, relative to
the cause of her fecundity; she, therefore,
next day made her way down to the porter's
lodge, and commenced her inquiries:
'Whose children are these, my good wo-
manp'
'Allmy own my good lady,
what! three infants of the same Rge?'
sYes, nv lady; had three the last time
'Hov long are you married?'
'Thne years, your ladyship.'
T. 'And how many children have you?'
'Sepsn! my lady,
At last came the question of questions
how she came to have the children? The
poor woman not well knowing what this
catechsm meant, and not knowing how to
wrap up in delicate words her idea of cause
and effect, blushed and grew confused, and
at last replied-T think it must be the po.
tatoes, my lady .-..,
This unfolded theory Of population
quite new to Lady Middleton, who eagerly
demanded: 'The potatoes! Do you ea'
much Of them?' ,-. -,
'Oh, yes, lady; very seldom We have bread
and so we take potatoes all the year round
Greatly agitated with her new informa.

I'VE grows them in our little garden, my
lady; sure Pat tills it,
'WeIl,' said Lady Middleton, tsend me ~

ard will pay you for them.'
Shortly after, her ladyship rose to leav'
the house, and, indeed, had left it. when tn
woman ran after, her, and, blushing, with
some hesitation asked, 'Aad sure, my lady
is it to have children that you want pota

1t was now the lady's turn to blush, ant
replying in the. afirmativc-'Because,' ad
