must be ratified BY hostile Senate, or falls
thraugh. All foreign ministers, all judges
of courts, all the important postmasters and
collectors Of ports, must be submitted to the
same scrutiny, or they become invalid.
Our Southern lellow,citizens, then, who
have looked with apprehension and dread to
this Republican triumph, should take cour-
age from the fact that they have Mr.. Lincoln
Al the greatest possible advantage, Since he
is demonstrably impotenr TO trench upon
their rights, they can afford to wait and study
his administration in its developments
They will probably find him safer man than
they fear. But the paint we make is, that,
whether he be safe or uasufe in his individual
tendencies, they can afford to hold on a
while and observe him. In a matter SO inn

Oliver, with a smile. Wen have pleas

These biscuits are nice, love. Upon my soul,
l think find the must comfort at my own
table. after all"
!" And well You might ny boy echoed
Uncle Eben. !" You we're lucky dog when
you secured this little bit Of feminine hu
manlty.n
Uncle laughed, and nephew laughed, but
Matilda did not feel exactly at ease. She
felt very much as an awkward speaker must
feel. who has got himself into the last clause
Of his speech. and don't know how in the
world to wind off. She felt very much dis
satisfied with the manner in which she was
forced to leave her remarks, but there was
no help for it. She gazed up into her hus-
bands face very expectantly; but ne gave
her no opportunity for further remark on the
subject Of the visit 50 shee finally fell into
the good natured train watch had been Lard
for her.
There, my boy,- what d'you think oil
thats" cried Uncle Eben, when they were
alone.
81 think it worked well, returned Oliver.
" 1t cost YOU Ettie effort al the outset Y
les-ll uiu.
" Then you see very plainly that you have
habit to overcome. But stick to il, my
dear fellow, and you'll conquer. She'll soon
give up her habit, when she finds that yol
furnish none to matchit. Didntyou notice
how uneasy she was when she found the mat
ter settleds"
Yes.v
WelI-if you had disputed with her, she
would have had good grounds for laying all
the blame of her unpleasant feelings upon
your shoulders bur as il was, she was for
ced to the conviction that, il she experienced
any unpleasant emotions, they were wholly
the result OF her own action. Stick to it,
Oliver, and you'll throw your domestic jars
all out Of doors in very short time"
And il proved just as Uncle Ebea had said.
1t often required an effort of self-control on
divers part; but when Matilda found that
she was sure to be taken at her word, and
that her husband found no fault, but quietly
and pleasantly submitted toher decision, she
began to be more guarded in her speech; and
ere long her own eyes were opened to the
folly Of the habit She had entertained. Al
she began TO break clear from II, she could
see its dark, thorny sides, and, Il quickly d
possible, She cast it off altogether.
Aud thus, BY the exercise of little rea.
son, and little self-control, was banished
an evil which had not only procured many
Domestic jars, but which might, in time, had
il been allowed to grow, have undermined,
BY its jarring, the foundation Of even Love
itself.
