They didn't leave not one split pea.

CONSERVATION in A Respectable Family.

We regret to say that through the bunder-
ing of a country cousin, one of the first fami-
lies in Boston was recently thrown into a
state of CONSERVATION and indignation, which
it is impossible to describe. For a while Sc
rious consequences were apprehended, but
after proper restoratives were applied and
explanations made, the family were enabled
to eat their meals with the accustomed regu-
larity and relish. This misunderstanding was
caused IN a singular manner and can, in q
measure, be attributed to the number of mill
tary heroes who infest the city.
1t seems that the cousin who caused the
trouble is native of Vermont, and now on
visit to an uncle in this city. One evening
during the recent spell of cold weather, the
only daughter OF the house, lady of seven
teen, whose delcacy Is part of her nature,
and whose mind was entirely above earthly
things, with the exception of the opera, new
dresses and carriage, remarked one evening
in the presence of her cousin and her family.
without word of warming that she was fear
tul OF freezing If she went to bed.
Her mother was about to utter some ex-
preston OF consolation, when the cousin
crude that he was) remarked in a loud tone.
so loud that every one heard him
Why don't you take major to bed with
you?"
There was faint Shrek, and Henrietta was
observed to fall senseIess on the nI,,sb sofa
Her position was noted, however for its 90
and the careful manner in which her crinoIine
was adjusted.
"Wretch !" cried the father, " Won have
murdered my daughter with your vulgaritv, !,
Monster :" exclaimed the mother, how
could you? and such delicate nerves as she
has, too"

doleful look, 81 didn't mean"
"Silencc, sir" cried the brother, who hat
attempted to obtain commission as briga

belonged to home guard and knew, there

The picture has the advantage of being on
the western wall of the Capitol, which makes
the points of compass correct. In viewing
it we look westward. II 10
And here am forced to notice an incon-
gruity in the piece While the guide points
toward the west, the land of promise, the
party all look toward the south or east 1t
is the western view which ought to engage
them, but the eastern view is that which they
behold. The little girl sitting by her mother
on the side of the mountain is delighted with
what she sees toward the rising and not the
setting sun. The gaze of the mother is to-
ward the east and her thoughts are of that
far off home she recently left. The con-
sumptive looking young man, who is possibly
student, rivets his penetrating gaze upon
what he sees toward the east, while the man
on horseback by his side looks directly south
ward. And of all the persons which compose
the emigrant train, not one looks toward the
west. In depicting expression, character
and emotion, the artist Yields the pen of a

mistake" said the head Of, the family; but
when there are young ladies in the room, |
don't think I'd mention such things. The
young ladies of the city are too delicate for
such vulgar names"
The Vermonter promised to be more care
full in the future, and the family are doing
well.
