Lord.

Nlr.lLord, who is now residing in
Illinois, was short time since riding
from jacksonville to Peoria, in that State,
and as he was passing small hut by the
roadside, he noticed a shaggy-headed boy
about eight years of age, with largo eyes,
no hat, and dressed in wOrn-out pair Of
his fathers trowsers, trying to balance
himse If or the splintered top of hickory
stump
More for the purpose of breaking the
mouotouy of riding all day without speak
ing than to gain information, Mr.. Lord
roined his horse up to the fence md said:
MY little boy, can you tell me how far
it is to Sangamon Bottom p
The boy poised himself on one leg,
opened his eyes to their fullest extent,
and replied:
"'Bout six miles, reckon"
"Do you live in that house" inqu Led
Mr.. Lord.
''I reckcl," was the reply.
DO you enjoy yourself out here in tho
woods?'
"a heap"
"What ails your pants 2?
"Tore 'em," was the laconic answer.
Finding that he had hold Of a genius
that could not be pumped, Mr.. Lord
turned his head to depart, but in return
was now hailed by the boy, who, in q
comical halfreluctant tone, exclaimed:
What mout your name be"
Lord " was the answer.
Here the boy grinncd all over, even to
the wrinkles in his fathers trowsers and
seemed hardly able to suppress broad
snickcr
"You seem pleased" said Lord; ''per.
haps you never heard the name before ?"
"Yes, ! have" replied the younger
I've heard pap read about you in the
Bible !"
Lord put spurs to his horse, and says
that even thoughts to which the incident
gave rise were not sufficient to keep him
from snickering the rest Of the journey

Search for wives,

Where do mcn usually discover the
women who attcrward become their
wivesl is question VIC have occasionally
heard discussed and the result invaria-
lily Gomc to is worth mentioning to our
young lady readers. Chance has much
10 do in the affair; but then there are
important governing circumstances. 1t
ID certain that few men make u selection
from bathrooms, or any other place of
public gayety; and nearly as few are
influenced by what may be called showing
off in streets, OF by any allurcmcnts Of
dress. Our conviction is, that ninety
nine hundrcdths Of all the tinery with
which the women decorate, or load their
persons, 90 for nothing, as far as husband
catching is concerned. Where and how,
then, do men find their wives? In the
quothomes OF their parents orguardians--
ut the tiresidc, where the domestic graces
and feelings are alone demonstrated.
These arc the charms which most surely
attract the high as we'll as tho humble.
Against these, all the iinery and airs in
the world sink into insignifcanco We
shall illustrate this by an anecdoto, which,
though not now, will not be the worse for
being again told In the year ITS, Peter
Bursell, Esq, Of Beckenham, in Kent,
whose health was rapidly declining, was
advised by his physicians to 60 to Spa for
the recovery Of his health. His daugh-
tsrs feared that those who only had
motives entirely mercenary would not
pay him that attention which no might
expect from those who, from duty and
affection united, would feel tho greatest
pleasure from ministering to his ease and
comfort; they therefore resolved to &C
company him, They proved that it was
not spirit of dissipation and gaiety that
led them to Spa, for they were not to lie
seen in any Of the gay and fashionable
circles; they were never out of their
fathers company, and never stirred from
home except to attend him, either to take
the air or drink the waters; in word,
tney lived most reclusive life in the midst
of town then the resort Of the most
illustrious and fashionable personagos in
Europe. This exemplary attention to
their father procured these three amiable
sisters the admiration of all the English
at Spa, and was the cause Of their eleva
ton to that rank in life to which theil
merits gave them just title They were
all married to noblemen--one to the Ear
of Beverley, another to the Duke of Hamil
ton, and afterward to the Marquis o.
Exeter, and third to the Duke Of North
2 cumberland. And it is. Justice to them t,
say that they reflected honor on theil
rank, rather than derived any from it.
