The Miser's Request.

The hour hand of Phillip Acres old fash
ioned silver watch was pointing to the figure
eight-the snug red curtains shut out the
rain and darkness of the March night, and
the fire snapped and cracked behind the
red-hot bar of the little CRATE in a most
cozy and comfortable sort of way, casting a
rosy shine into. the thoughtful brown eyes
that were tracing castles and coronets in the
burning Goals.
For Phillip Acre was, for once, indulg-
ing himself in the dangerous destinations Of
day dream.

himself 'Ah, if Then good by to all

A singular custom prevailing in Russia is
described by traveller in these words: On
Whit Monday and the following Sunday,
there is also great promenade in the Sum-
mer Garden-namely, the exhibition of all
the marriageable daughters in order to mar
ry them, or Gas they term it,) to give them
away. Under the lime-trees of the princi-
pal alley are two long rows of gayly dressed
girls, packed closely together like the pipes
of an organ. Behind each stands the match
maker, and in the third row the mother and
other female relatives Through this double
line the spectators and wife-seeking Russians
slowly walk. The latter notice any face that
pleases them and the matchmaker belong
ing to it, On the following day, the suitor
sends for the matchmaker, who confers with
the girls father, and receives his answer to
the proposal. If satisfactory on both sides,
the marriage takes place-The young lady
herself scarcely being consulted.

Spanish Proverbs.

He who is foolish when he wives
Is like to die before he thrves.
He who still works, may, if he please,
Be always thinking Of his ease.
Did every fool a white cap wear,
Men would flock Of geese appear.
Wine is a turn-coat, first a friend,
But e'er traitor in the the end.
Who seeks revenge for every wrong,
May live in hOnor-but not long.
He richer proves whose wit was bought
Than he who his obtained for nought.
What charity doth give away
Heaven will with interest repay.
You ne'er should say, and meier should do
The word or deed wrath prompts thee too.
That pleasure shun, which may tomorrow,
Perchance become the cause Of sorrow.
He who gives unto the poor,
Does only lend to swell his store.
He who once proves himself knave
Does seldom change this side the grave.

Beneath the Stars.

In the holy hush of even,
When the day has gone to rest,
And her cares and doubts and trials
Sleep like babes upon her breast
When no busy strife or hustle
The sweet dream-like quiet mars
o, what fancies fit before us
AS we sit beneath the stars.
Starry jewels fash and glitter
In the nights imperial crown
Like the clear, pure eyes of angels
Looking calmly, coldly down
And the flash of pearly portals,
And the CLEAN of golden bars,
Pass before us in our musing,
As we gaze upon the stars.
O, had we the mystic vision
Of Chaldea's seers of old,
Who in all the stars above them
The fate of worlds behold;
What connections and what changes,
What wild triumphs, tolls, and wars,
Might we read in silver letters
On the tablet of the stars.
When the soft blue sky of even
Seems an inland lake of rest,
With the cleaning snow-white lilies,
sleeping Oh us p6acelu III breast,
Then the airy hand of Fancy
Pushes back the golden bars,
Till we seem to see the glory
Of the world beyond the stars.
Then the feecy cloudlets flashing
In the moonbeam's pearly rays,
Seem like wandering wings of angels
Slowly floating through the haze;
Or, like straying peris drifting
In their light and aerial cars,
From the paradise of beauty
In the land beyond the stars.
Starry lamps seem watchfres, lighted
By some loved, departed hand,
To allure our wandering footsteps
To the distant spirit land,
So that, looking through the dimness
That the earthly vision mars,
We may bow in admiration
Before Him who made the stars,
When at last life's tolls are over, a.
And we fold our hands in rest,
As day folds her rosy piniOns
In the chambers of the West
When its mortal handno longer
The freed spirits light debars,
May we rise to dwell forever
In the world beyond the stars.

PERPETUAL MoT1oN.-A Mr. Caruthers,
a mechanic in Kingston, Canada, processes
to have discovered the principle of perpetu-
al motion. A correspondent of the British
american states that it is proved by one of
the simplest things in the world in the shape
of machinery. :" The model" he says, dis
constructed of eight levers; and each of these
levers has weight attached to it. Seven
Of these weights are descending while one
is ascending; it stands to reason if we have
weight to lift one hundred pounds, with
lever six feet long, and if you place the full
crum two feet from the end of the lever we
have four feet Of the leverage, and weight
of fifty pounds will balance the lever. Mr..
Caruther's invention is on this principle
We have seven of those weights lifting one
of the same size" The correspondent prom
ises that the wonder will shortly be present.
