Boys Names.

Last week we published some
shifts" on girls names, so this week we
publish little advice in regard to
boys'namcs:
Young lady, if you would be an in.
dependent go.ahead, care-for-noth-
ing, fearless woman--if you would
have your own way about matters
and things, and not always ask per.
mission Of your leige lord, be sure to
marry man by the name of William
for then you would most certainly
have VII of your own.
lfyou are gay, srprightly, fun-love.
ing girl, fond Of show and dress; if
you wish to lead the van in fashion
and display, and wear the most beau
tilul fabrics, regardless of expense,
see to it that you get husband that
wont grumble. lfyou would do this,
just marry a man taat calls himself
Abel; you may then feel sure that he
will be able to meet all emergencies.
If you would shun a mean, con.
temptible grumbler, one who would
always wish you to give an account
for every'live cents that you spend, one
who would be for ever telling you
what an expensive wife you were and
just how many dollars you use need
lessly, only take up with a man whose
watch-word is addem (Adam)
lfyou are a peaceable, loving. gen.
tie girl, who would as soon die as live
in quarrel, don't for the world min
gle with those who would delight to
get you mixed up in muss (Amos.)
Those good. old, doting parents had
better keep sharp look out for that,
bold, daring energetic youth, that has
fallen in love with their beautiful
daughter, for he is just the chap that
his name indicates, and if he cannot
get her in any other way, he will a
wait good opportunity and seize her
(CTsar)
If you are at all inclined to coquet.
try don't marry Jealous man by the
name of Robert, for you may be sure
that your admirers would be very apt
TO get Bob in a round. (bobbin a
round)
A sensitive, proud spirited girl
should beware Of the name Peter; if
they are not as hard-harted as rock,
they will be worthless fellows--for
ever body knows that peat (Pete) is a
vegetable substance, fit for nothing
but fuel.
That woman should persevere, who
has her eye fixed upon a particular
mark, (Mark:) she has the good book
to encourage her; wch says, "press
forward towards the mark, for the
prize"
Every Martha should try to find a
Matthew; thus we should see we'll
matched pair Of nuts, (Matts) things
very difficult to find nova days.
1t is very dangerous for an ardent,
ailcctionatc girl to fall in love with
youths who bears the name of john
for, they have from time immemorial,
declared themselves unmarriageble.
John"the beloved was an old bachelor.

How to Do it.

There is good sense in the following
advice to young men and women who
are thinking Of matrimony. 1t is an
article by Grant Thorburn.
There is nothing to be gained in
dangling for twelve month, after
sensible woman, talking unmeaning
stuff words without wisdom. Tell
her your wish like man, and not like
a blubering schoolboy. She will new
cr triilc with your affections; and if
there are three grains Of common
sense in your muckle carcass, she will
be your own before month has
passed. See the history of Rebecca,
in Genesis, oath chapter, seth verse.
When Abraham's servant had conclu-
ded the preliminary contract with
Mrs. Laban, on the part Of her daugh-
ter, to become the wife of Isaac, the
old man was anxious to get home
to show his young master the boany
lass he had brought him, the old
mother wished him to remain a few

WANTEp.--Onc hundred and seven
ty-Gvc young men, of all shapes and
sizes, from the tall, graceful dandy,
with hair enough on his upper works
to stuff BARRIERS cushion, down to the
little upstart. The object is to form a
Gaping Corps, to be in attendance at
the Church doors on each Sabbath, be-
fore the commencement of divine ser
vice, to stare at the females as they
enter, and make delicate and gentle
manly remarks on their persons and
dress. All who wish to enlist in the
above Corps, will please appear at
the various church doors next Sabbath
morning, where they will be duly in
spected, and their names, personal ap.
pcarancc and quantity of brains reg
istcrcd in a book kept for that pur-
pose, and published in the newspapers.
To prevent a general rush it will be
well to state that none will be enlisted
who possess intellectual capacities
above that Of an ordinary wcll-brcd
monkey.

! have not wealth, to crown thy brows
With precious wrealhs Of pearls;
/ may not bind the diamonds light,
Within thy glossy curls;
have not gold to purchase robes
From lndia's mystic loom,
| cannot bring the foreign plants,
Ofgorgeous, costly bloom.
My home is not where fashion dwells,
In halls Of FURNISHED gold,
Not yet, beneath the ivied roof,
Ofkindly castles old;
I've but simple forest cot,
Hung DER by whispering trees,
Where golden sunbeams pause to rest,
Amid the downy leaves.
Yet have dared to kneel to thee,
Though humble born, and poor,
I'll give to thee the truest heart,
That ever maiden wore!
Oh, give TO me but thy sweet love-
IT'S all my spirit Graves;
I'll lean around thee as the shore,
Leans round the beating waves.
For thy sweet sake, I'll labor on,
Till fame shall wrealhe my brow,
And wealth and pride, before my shrine,
Their naughty heads shall bow!
And thou shalt lay tiny tender form,
Upon my heart to rest
My soul would swell with mighty
strength,
With thee upon my breast
Thou wilt be mine! know feel,
read it in thine eye,
And my hearts vow is heard and known,
And registered on high!
For thee I'll brave the roughest storm,
And love the hardest fate
Ifthou art near to cheer me on,
My spilit's noble mate!

Fact TO BE REMEMBERED. Every bus,
ness man and mechanic who has a
proper appreciation as the true mode
of doing business, ought to have i'm.
pressed upon his memory the fact that
no man should be delicate about asking
what is properly his due. If he neg
lccts doing so, he is deficient in the
spirit OF independence wich he should
observe in all actions. Rights are
rights, and ifnot granted should be
demanded. The selfish world is little
inclined to give one his own, unless he
have the manlineSs to claim it, The
lack ofproper luliiIlmcnt Of this prin-
ciplc has lost to many fortune, fame
and reputation Occasionally a custom

BAsurUL MGN.--Wc never sec a
genuinely bashful man who was not
the very soul of honor. Though such
may blush and stammcr and shrug
their shoulders awkwardly, unable to
throw forth with ease the thoughts
that they would express, yet commend
them to US for friends.
There are fine touches in their char
actcrs that time will mellow and bring
out, perceptions as delicate as the
fantest tint is to the unlolded rose;
and their thoughts are none the less
refined and beautiful that they do not
flow with the impctuosity Of the shall
low strcamlct.
We are astonished that such men
are not appreciated--that ladies with
really good hearts and cultivated in
tellccts will reward Sir Mustacho
Brainlcss with smiles and attention,
because he can fold shawl graceful
ly and handy compliments with Pa
risian elegance, while they will not

man, who has for them q reverence
so great that every mute glance is
worship.

1t is really a qualification and a
pleasure to us TO announce the favor
and patronage with which the Home
Journal is meeting. We are encour-
aged, and encouragement is potent
incentive to exertion. We believe we
state the truth when we say that our
addition of subscribers for two months
past will average two per day, while,
for the same time we have not had a
single discontinuance. And nearly
every mail brings us a remittance and
a subscriber, and compliments Of the
neat appearance Of the paper-no
blurs and blots, but clear, lively print,
and large enough for the eye to read
with comfort. Never before have we
so nearly pleased everybody, and this
day the Home Journal is indeed a
welcome-a wished-lor visitor to ma
ny families. In response to our call
for each subscriber to furnish US one
additional, some eight or ten have an
swcrcd-all of them old men, stand
ards of the best society in Franklin
county, who have been our good and
accommodating friends all the time.
But our appeal to the school girls in
our town has so far availed nothing.
Young ladies, your parents at home
would be pleased with the Home
Journal. Make up a club amongst
yourselves, and we will have the pa.
per left at your boarding houses every
week, or we will mail it to your homes
regularly In good envelope, and only
charge two dollars per annum.
