Mr.. Youngl,usband's Experiments.

Mr.. Youngllusbaud, although he had
been married good deal more than once,
is-sinrular to say-somewhat suspicious
of women. Far from being in general an
admirer Of Lord Byron or bis opinions, he
yet agrees with the poet 10 ascribing a very
considerable influence over the softer sex
to opportunity. If woman sees becom-
ing bonnet that she knows she can never az
ford to buy, sir, and the millinrr says its
no consequence ma'am; can wait for the
money a little while, she'll come home with
that bonnet upon her head or IN a bandbox,
10 certainty. They can't resist it, sir, for
it isn't in 'cm.
Such being Mr.. Us openly expressed
opinion, one would imagine that he would
be the last person TO have made expert.

The Captain Sold.

The San Francisco Era tells the follow
ing story as the truth -
A short time since, a tall sanctified per-
son, dressed in go,d suit OF black, with
white cravat, and gold spectacles upon his
nose, boarded one of the steamers on bef'
departure from this city, and bccame im-
mediately engaged in a scene OF cn.hussa
astic hand shaking with a friend whom he
nau apparently come to "see off," He held
in his grasp a parcel Of papers. tied with
red tape, and had evidently just torn him
self away from his business 10 exchange
the last adieu with his acquaintance. They
soon repaired TO the state-room Of the lat
ter, where they were soon hob-nobbing
over the parting glass.
In the meanwhile the bell had rung, anil
the steamer was under way. The gentIe-
man with the papers was indignant--he in
sisted upon being set ashore, but not even
the consideration of the vast interest in<
volved in the case Of Knox vs. Rocks,
wonld induce the pilot to turn back, or in
any other way accommodate the luminary
of the law. The officers Of the boat en-.
joyed brisk laugh over the perplexiiies n
the traveller pcrforce, when their merri-
ment was silenced by the following note
handed TO The captain by the cabin boy, at
the close of the trip, when the last passcn~
ger had left the boat - ~
"DEAR Car. The compliments of the
day to yourself and the noble vessel over
which you have the distinguished honor to
hold the chief command. With the recol-
lections of your mirth-provoking anecdotes

The British Museum is one of the most

The Museum buildings, including conrt

buildings are of granite. forming a qiad-
rangle 400 feet broad, by 500 deep, with
advancing wings on the south front. This
entire front is surrounded By a csloanade

THE HOUR OF DEATH.


"Mcn fear death as children fear to 90
into the dark and as that natural fear in
children is increased with tales, so is the
other. Certainly, the contemplation oI
death, as the wages of sin and passage to
another world, is holy and religious; but
the fear Of il, as tribute due unto nature
is weak. lie that dies in an earnest
pursuit, is like one that is wounded in hot
blood, who for the time scarce feels the
hurt and therefore, mind fixed ard bent
upon somewhat that is good, doth avert the
dolors of death-Bacon's Essays.
Leaves have their time to flli
And flowers to wither at the north winds breath,
Aud stars to set--but ALL
Thou hast all seasons for thine own, o Death

ave for glad meetings round thy joyous hearth,
Night for the dreams Of sloep, the voice of prayer
But ali for thee, thou might est Of the earth
We know when moons shall wane
When summer birds from far shall cross the sea,
When autumn's hue shall tinge the golden grain
But who shall teach when to look for thee!

Comes forth to whisper where the yiolcts lie

They have one season-,iH are ours % die,

Thou art round US in our peaceful home;

Thou art where foe meets foe, and trumpets rend
