Qu1ETINa A Pre- Charles the Fifth,
while on a journey, fell in with peasant
upon the road who was carrying pig. The
noise made by the porker was very disagree
able to the emperor, who asked the peasant
if he had not learned the method Of making
a pig quiet. The rustic confessed that he
had not, but that he should be very glad to
be acquainted with it. Take the pig by
the tail, said the emperor, "and you viii
see that it will soon be silent" The peasant
finding that the emperor was right, thanked
him, and added, " You must have learned
understand it very much better"

Iris singular historical fact that con-
fdential intimacy existed between James
II. and William Penn, the founder Of
Pennsylvania. James once condescended
to use playful reproof to the popularity
Of the Quaker, who, the first time he en-
tered his presence after he became king,
did so with his hat on. James immedi-
ately took off his own. "Friend James"
said Penn, "why dost thou uncover thy
heads" Because" replied his Majesty,
with smile, sit is the fashion here for
only one man to wear his hat"

q How SOON WE FoReET.-A leaf is torn
from the tree by rude gale, and borne away
to some desert spot to perish. Who misses
it from its fellows?, Who said that it is gone
Thus it is with human life. There are dear
friends, perhaps, who are stricken with grief
when a loved one is taken; and for many
days the grave is watered with tears Of an
guish. BY and by the crystal fountain is dry;
the last drop oozes out; the stern gate Of
forgetfulness folds back upon the exhausted
spring; and Time, the blessed healer Of sor-
rows, walks over the closed sepulchre with
out making an echo by the footsteps. q be

TIE BEAUTY OF MARR1AGE.-1n open
ing an old book, the other day, the first
passage that my eye fell upon was this.
I copy it entire, although / do not believe
every word it contains. The old writer
says: Marriage has in it less of beauty,
but more of beauty, but more of safety,
than single life; it hath more ease, but
less danger; it is more merry and more
sad; it is fuller of sorrows and fuller Of
joys; it lies under more burdens, but is
supported by all the strengths of love and
charity, and those burdens are delightful.
Marriage is the mother of the world, and
preserves kingdoms and fills cities and
churches, and heaven itself. Celibacy,
like the fly in the heart of the apple, dwells
in perpetual sweetness, but sits alone and
is confined, and dies in the singularity /;
but marriage, like the useful bee, builds
house and gathers sweetness from every
flower, and labors and unites into societies
and republics, and sends out colonies, and
feeds the world with delicacies, and obeys
its rule, and keeps order, and exercises
many virtues, and promotes the interests
of mankind in that state of good to which
God hath designed the present constitu-
ton of the world" Now you will admit
that this is very terse and beautiful. 1t is
quite like Barrow for compactness, and
Jeremy Taylor for sweetness. But, as l
said before, 1t is not all to be agreed to,
particularly the statement that marriage
has in it less of beauty than the single
life." There is hardly anything in the
world so beautiful as the union of two
loving hearts, that are united because Of
their love, and for no unworthier reason.
There is hardly an augury of promise so
auspicious as an early love that looks to-
wards marriage as its faithful seal and sig
net. There is hardly any festival among
men SO genial and happy as wedding
day,

SIR ROBERT CorroN, happening to call
at his tailor's, discovered that man held
in his hand the identical Magma Charta,
with all its seals and appendnges, which
he was just going to cut into measures for
his customers. The baronet redeemed
this valuable curiosity at the price of old
parchment, and thus recovered what was
supposed to be irretrieyably lost. 1t is
now preserved in the British Museum.

One morning in the early Spring
Sitting upon lonely tree.
The only songster, too, was he:
Sweet bird, said, dost sing for me
What is thy song what moves thy breast !
What secret feeling Of unresti
IL 1t excess Of joy or woe
That thou dost sit AVID MARBLE 80
Oh tell me, for long 20 know.
Art thou like those who sing for praise,
Aud spend lsborous nights and days.
Il this the meaning Of thy strain
II 80, thou dost not sing in vain,
And needest not to sing again.
Blest Il thy lot. Thy careless song
Wins that for which we labor long;
The muse has drOpt her learned pen,
And domiciled With yonder wren,
Has len Parnsssus for this glen.
The man who would a poet be-.
Here let him come and learn Of thee
Singing Of woods and trees and flowers.
Thou pnsssst all thy tuneful hours;
o would such innocence were ours
Then would our songs be like to thine,
Simple A. nature and divine;
And, could underneath this tree
But sing the strain learn from thee,
Methinks Z were fame enough for me.
