of the cabins and ruder farm houses, with
an irch or two of vacancy between the Chin
ney and the, roof, and with cracks on every
side, through which the stars may be seen.
The ceiled and plastered bed rooms, wherein
too many of the middle classes are lodged,
with no other apertures for the ingrsss and
egress of air but the doors and windows are
horrible. Nine tenths of their occupants
rarely open window. unless compelled by
excessive heat very few are careful even to
leave the door ajar. To sleep in six-by-
ten bed room, with no aperture admitting air,
is to court the ravages of pestilence, and in

JOKING ON A TENDER" SuBJEcT.-Secre.
tary Chase started the other day with an arm
load OF cranberry tarts, cologne water, and
copies of his Treasury Report. to distribute
to the contrabands. In passing the White

woodpile reading newspaper.
g Hallo!" said Chase, What you kot

President, who had imbibed some Of the face

"Why, your names S. P. Chase, and I'm
going to call you Ship Plaster Currency
Chase"
The Secretary being man of figures, if
not facts, didn't calculate upon such levity,
and thought that it subtrac;ed from the Pres
idental dignity. He therefore called the jo.
ker's serious attention to the condition of the
contrabands, and said that green seal cham
pagne and Havanacigars were needed for
their relief He added that several OF them
had too much boiled turkey and oyster sauce,
and they wanted roast duck and onions put
on their bill Of fare.
The President averred that he had sent
them plenty of ducks-real canvas backs.

A PLAYFUL BRuTE-The African, of Con.
s,antine. Cape of Good Hope, states that as
a woodcutter was lately proceeding from St.
Charles to Gastonville. he suddenly saw
crouched in the read before him an enormous
lion. Seized with terror, he turned round
and ran of. when the Ion pursued and went
past him. and on reaching a certain distance
in advance again iav down as if to await the
mans approach. The man again turned
round and went back, the lion once more
rushing beyond him and lying down. This
manoeuver was repeated by the animal sew
eral times. when the man at length fell to the
ground exhausted by fright and fatigue. The
lion then approached him, and after examin-
ing him from head to foot walked off with a
friendly roar, as if expressive of its pleasure
at the trick it had played him. The man was
confined to his bed for some days after.

SoeIErx.-The pleasure of society depends
more upon females than any other. Gentle
men expect to be entertained. Children are
put out Of the question, and therefore it rests
upon woman what society shall be. The
pleasure of an evenings entertainment is
graduated by the capacity of the hostess to
interest her visitors in each other, and make
them forget that their own identity is to be
lost in efforts to make every on at ease. That
is the great effort of true enjoyment. Some
ladies will enter a drawing room or social
circle, where every PERSONS neighbors ap-
pear like an iceberg, and the whole atmos-
where is chilly and constrained, and,- by
their genial and well timed playfulness, throw
sunshine and warmth, all over the room, till
all mingle in that easy yet dignifed cordiality
that ever characterizes true gentility.. As q
lady aptly expressed it, the hostess is n key.

YOUNG minister went out to preach, and

seemed to he much affected. After meeting
he concluded to pay her visit. and see what
were the impressions of her mind. He ap-
preached her thus: Well, madam, what
were you so affected abolt during meeting
to day ?" La, me,' sa the lady, .tI'll
tell You. About six years ago me and my
husband moved to this place. and all the
property we had was jackass. Husband he
died, and me and the beast were left all
alone. At last the beast died; and, to tell
you the truth, your voice put me so much in
mind of that dear old critter that conldn'i
help takin' on an cryin' about it right out
