FANNY FERN ON SoNs IN N-LAw.-Fanny
Fern, having lost one Of her Oldest daugh-
ter by marriage, makes the following refec-
ton, by her rather Insignificant. When
she penned them, Does'icks had probably
lust declared his Intentions: ~
How any young fellow cap have the face
to walk into your family, and deliberately
ask for one of your daughters surprises
me. That it is done every day does not
lessen my astonishment at the sublime
impudence of the thing. There you have
been eighteen or twenty years of her life,
combing her hair and washing her face for
him! It is lucky, the thought never
strikes you while doing it, that this is to
be the end of it all. What if you were
married yourselfa That is no reason why
she should be bewitched away into any
separate establishment, just as you begin
to lean on her; or at least it stands to rea-
son that after you have worried her thro'
the measles. the chtcken-pox, scarle fever,
and whooping cough, and had her proper
ly baptized and vaccinnated this youngman
might give you short time to breath
before she goes. He seems to be of diff
ferent opinion; he insists not only on ia
king her, but taking her Immediately, if
not sooner. He talks well about it-Yery
we'll; you have no objection to him, not
the least in the world, except that, when
the world is full of girls, why couldn't be
have fixed bis eyes on somebody else.-
There are some parents who are glad to
get rid of their daughters. Blue eyes are
as plenty as blue berries; why need it be
this particular pair? Don't she have
enough meat and bread and clothes enough
to say nothing of love? What is the use
of leaving certainty for an uncertainty,
when that certainty is mother, and you
can never have but one? You will put
all these questions to her, and she has the
the sauciness to ask if that is the way you
reasoned when father came for you. You
disdain to answer, of course; it is a mean
dodging of the question. But she gets
round you for all that; and so does he, too,
though you try your best not to like him /;
and with a well, if must, must you
just order her wedding clothes, muttering
to yourself the while, dear, dear, what
sort of a fist will that child make at the
head of housea How. will she know
what to do in this, that, and the other
emergencyi She Who is calling on 'rnott-
er' fifty times aday, to settle every triaing
question What folly for her to set up
house for herself! 0 How many mothers
have had these foreboding thoughts over a
dsuehterl and yet that daughter has met
life, and its unexpected reverses, with he
roism and courage as undaunted as if ev-
erv cirlish fear had not been kissed away
by lips that, alas may be dust, when the
baptism of womanhood comes ubon her.

old imposture. The operator rents Il house,
fills it with cheap second hand but showy
furniture, and then advertises that Il wealthy
gentleman, about leaving the city, will sell
ont the contents of his house at u s;ieri1lee.--
Mock" bidders are in attendance, and all the
Peter Funk hunbugs are practiced. The

again In the night and so the sale OF the re-
firing wealthy gentleman's effects is kept up
for a week or a month, or as long us victims
con tinue to visit the house. Hitherto, through
some defect in the law, these sharpers have
escaped punishment; and buyers have been
