DOMESTIC FAULrs.-A writer thus speaks
OF the fatal influence of small faults on the
peace of households. We. believe that in
nine cases out of ten families are broken up
by the petty scandal of neighbors, who
magnify the little faults Of one or the other
of the parties into monster vices, and then
retail them as stubborn facts: "Homes are
more often darkcnd by the continual recur-
renee of small faults, than by the actual
presence of any decided vice. These evils
are apparently of very dissimilar magnitude;
yet it is easier to grrapple with ono than the
other. The Eastern traveller can combine
his forces, and hunt down the tiger that
prowls upon his path-but he can scarcely
escape the musquitoes that infest the air he
breathes or the heas that swarm in the sand
nc treads. The drunkard has been known
to renounce his darling vice; the slave to
dress in extravaganza, her besetting sin
but the waspish temper, the irritating Tone
rude, dogmatic manners, and the hundred
namcless negligences that spoil the beauty
of association, have rarely done other than
proceed till the action Of disgust and gradual
alienation has turned all currents Of affec-
ton from their course, leaving nothing but
a barren track over which the skeleton Of
companionship stalks alone.'

Prospects of Peace.

The New York Herald which 80 ably de-
Tended the cause of the Union in this terri
ble emergency, now declares that its ''hopcs
of the preservation of this Confedeacy,
through the mediatorial intervention OF
Congress, have vanished" We must tell
our more experienced and able coternpora.
ries that they had no right to have hopes in
that quarter from the beginning. There
never was greater set Of party hacks in
Congress since the foundation of the gov
ernment, than in the present one. 1t is
composed, in a large measure, of the men
whose denagoguical appeals have driven
the nation into its present disaster, These
men are yet fresh from their labors Of hate
their hearts still ranking with venom,
and echoes Of their virtuperations still ring
ing in the ears of the people. Their own
eyes arc not only blinded to the truth and
their hearts closed to the appeals Of be-
trayed people, but their personal pride is
irrevocably involved in maintaining the po-
sition they have assumed. Under these
circumstances, we think it was unwise to
calculate upon relief from the present Con-
gress. All that can be hoped for from the
present Congress is that they will not Who'll
ly ruin the governmcnt-that they will not
plunge the country into war, and that they
will call convention of all the States, fresh
from the people and untrammelled by party
lines, to readjust and settle this matter con-
stitutionally and forever This, we have
seen from the first, was the only hope, and
every indication confirms our original con-
ceptions. With a convention there is great
reason to hope; without a convention, there
is nome Chicago Times.

New Grain Elevators,

Chicago, already the largest grain market
in the world, is steadily adding to its facili-
ties for carrying on this trade. We notice
with pleasure that Munger & Armour, and
Smith G. Sturges, WHO are among our most
experienced and enterprising houses in this
line, are each building new Elevator on
the South Branch These are to be of the
largest class, built in the most substantial
manner, and furnished with the best and
most approved machinery, and are to be
completed early in the spring. Some idea of
the immense amount Of grain which may
be handled in them, may be gathered from
the fact that they are to be furnished with
nearly thirty Of Fairbanks 400 bushel and
800 bushel Hopper Scales, which are by
universal consent the best in use, and that
each of these scales, so perfect will be the
machinery, can be loaded to its full capa-
city, and the grain discharged again from
the Hopper, in less than ten minutes. In
view Of the Immense and fertile country
lying back Of us, tiaversed in all directions
by numerous railroads, having their centre
here, and of our present and increasing
facilities for receiving and shipping grain,
the experience and enterprise of our bust
ness men, it is reasonable to expect Chicago
will be in the future, as now, the great
grain market of the world. - Chicago Press

Scene in an Arkansas Hotel.

4 contributor to the Spirit of the Times,
thus describes scene at the Anthony
House, in Little Rock, Arkansas:
Late one bitter cold night in December
some eight or nine years ago, l.. came into
the bar-room, as usual, to take part in what
ever was going on. For some reason the
crowd had dispersed sooner than was Gus
tomary, and but two or three of the town
folks were there, together with a stranger,
who had arrived a half hour or longer be-
fore, and who, tired, wet, and muddy, from
n long Arkansas stage ride, his legs ex-
tended, and shoes off, was consolng him.
self with two chairs and nap, opposite the
center of blazing fire. Any one who has
travelled until ten O'Clock in a rough winter
night, over an Arkansas road, can apprcci
ate the fruition before that fireplace.
The drowSy example Of the stranger had
its effect on the others, and L., who took
a seat in the corner, for lack of converse
ton was reduced to the poker for amusc-
ment. He poked the fire vigorously for h
while, until it got red hot, and becoming
disgusted, was about to drop it and retire
when he discovered the great toe of the
strangers foot protruding through hole in
one Of his socks.
Here was relief to l.. He placed the
glowing poker within foot of the melan-
choly sleeper's toe, and began slowly to
lessen the distance between them; one by
one the others, as they caught the Joke,
began to open their eyes, and being awak-
ened, mouths expanded into grins, and
grins into suppressed giggles-and ore in
continent fellows into a broad laugh
Closer and closer the red hot poker neared
toward the unfortunate toe. The heat
caused tho sleeper restlessly to move his
hand. L. was about to apply the poker,
when sound of click click! arrested his
attention. He looked at the strangcr--the
latter with one eye open, had been watching
his proceedings, and silently brought a
pistol to bear upon L. In voice Just
audible, he muttered in tone of great
determination:
jest burn it! Burn IL! Jest burn it,
and I'll be id if | don't stir you up
with ten thousand hot pokers in two Sc.
conds!'
L. laid down the poker instantly, and re.
marked:
Stranger, let's take driak-in fact,
ger temen, all of you.''
l.: afterwards said they were the cheapest
drinks he ever bought

THE NIGHT BEFORE CIIRIsTMAs.


Twas the night before Christmas, when all through thu
house,
Not creature was stirring, not even mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas would be there
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-pums danced thro' their heads
And mamma in her 'kerchsf and in my cap,
Had just settled brains for long winters nap
When out in the lawn there such clatter,
sprang from my bed to see what the matter;
Away to the window flew like fash,
lore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the ncw-falen snow,
Gave the lustre of midday to objects below;
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But miniature sleigh and eight tiny raindeer,
With Lit tie old driver so lively and quick,
knew in q moment it must be st. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
Aud he whispered and shouted and called them by
name
'.Now Dasheri now Dancer! Prancer! +! now Vixen
On Comet! on Cupid on Donder, on Bhxenl
To he top Of the porch to the top of the wall
Now dash away, dash away, dash away all !"
AS the leaves that before the hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to tho sky,
So up to the house-top, the coursers they nsw,
With a sleis sh full Of toys--and st. Nicholas too
Axd then in a twinklng, heard on the roof,
The prancing and paving of each little hoof.
So drew in my head and turning around,
Down the chimney st. Nicholas came with a bound.
lie dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot
And his clothes all tarnished with ashes and scott
bundle Of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like pcdlar just opening his pack:
Ills eyes, how they twinkcd, his dmples, how merry
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like cherry
His dro lit lc mouth drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin white as he snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke, it encrclcd his head like wreath,
lie had broad face, and little round belly,
That shook when he laughed, like bowl full of jelly
lie was chubby and plump, right jolly old elf
And laughed when saw him, in spite Of myself.
wink OF his eye and twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know had nothing to dread.
lie spoke not word, but went straight to his work
Aud filed all the stockdngsthen turned with jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving nod, up the chimney he rose.
lie sprang to his sleigh to his team gave q whistle,
And away they all few like the down of thistle.
But heard him exclaim ere he drove out OF sight.

MARRIAGE-FRoM A YANKEE PoISr o.
VIEW Cant marry a woman now -a-days,
till you're so deaf that you have to cock
your head like a parrot to hear what she

Hossback ridin' arn't for them, except once

for them. Sometimes a f:llah feels lonely,
and would like to have nice young wo-

sometimes fellah would like to have ono

A Moment OF Horror.

Moment OF Horror.
The Mobile Register Is arswerxbis ~
the following:
For twenty three years old Jake Willard
has cultivated the soil Of Baldwin couatlE
and drawn therefrofn support for hisuSlk
and wife. He is childless. Not long ago
Jake left the house in search Of mlaoina
cow. His route led him through IN oh
worn out patch of clay land; Of about six
acres in extent, in the center 6f which wax
a well twenty five or thirty feet deep that
at some time probably had furnished th,:
inhabitants Of ruined house near by With
water. In passing this spot an III wind
lifted Jake's hat from his head and mali.
ciously waited it to the edge Of the well and
in it tumbled.
Now Jake had always practiced the viri
tue of economy, and he Immediately set
about the recovery Of the lost hat. He ran
to the well and finding that il was dry at
the bottom, he uncoiled the rope which he
had brought for the purpose Of capturing
the truant cow, and after several attempts
to catch the hat with moose, he coilelude4
to save time by going down into the well
himself. To accomplish this he made one
end of the rope fast to stump hard by and
was quickly on his way down the well.
1t is fact, of which Jake was no lesa
obvious than the reader hereof, that Ned
Wells was in the ruined building aforesaid,
and that an old blind horse with bell on
his neck, who had been turned out to die;
was lazily grazing within short distaacs
Of the well. -
The devil himself, or some other wicked
spirit, put it into Ncd's cranium to have Z
little fun; go he quietly slipped up to the
horse and unbuckling the bell strap ap-
preached with slow and measured ting q
ling" to the edge of the well.
"Dang that old blind horscr' said Jake,
''he's cummin' this way sure, and amt
got no more sense than to fall in here
Whoa, Ball I" ...... ... .. .....ss
But the continued approach of tho sting
a ling" said just as plainly as words that
"Balr' wouldn't whoa. Besides Jake was!
at the bottom resting before trying to shin
it up the rope.
Great Jerusalem!' said he, 'thc old cuss
will be a top Of me before | can say Jack
Robinson. Whoa, dang you, whoa!''
just then Ned drew up to the edge Of
the well, and with his foot kicked little
dirt into it. r.s.s.
"Oh, Lord =! exclaimed Jake, falling up.
on his knees at the bottom, "I'm gone now,
whoa Now lay me down to slecp--w-h-o-a
Ball ! pray the Lord my soul to--w-h-o.s
now. Oh, Lord, have mercy on mcr'
Ned could hold in no longer, and fearing
that Jake might suffer from his fright, be
revealed himself .. a..
Probably Ned didn't make tracks with
his heels from that well. Maybe Jake
wasn't up to the top of 1t in short time;
and you might think he didn't try everv
night for two weeks to get a shot with his
rife at Ned. Maybe not l don't know.
But do know that if Jake finds out who
sent you this, it will be the last squib you
will get from this writer.
