Is He Rich?

MANY a sigh is heard-many a one is
rendered miserable by the terrible infat-
tuation which parents often manifest in
choosing young companion for :heir
daughters. how is it possible for hap
piuess TO result from the union of two
principles SO diametrically opposed to
each other in point as much as virtue is
to vice, How often is the FIRST question
which is asked respecting the suitor of
the daughter, this-'is he rich?
Is he rich?'-yes, he abounds in wea-
Ith; but it does not offer any evidence
that he will make kind and afectionate
husband.
Is he ?'-yes, his clothes are Of
fine linen, and he fires sumptuous1y every
day. but can you infer from this that he
is yirtuous?
Is he richg-yes, he has thousands
floating on every ocean; but do not rich
es take to themselves wings and fly away ?
viii you consent that your daughter
should marry man who has nothing to
recommend him but his wealth? All,
beware the gilded bait sometimes covers
the barbed hook. Ask not then, Is he
rich? but Is he virtuousY ASK not if
he has wealth, but if he has bonor-and
do not sacrifice your daughters happiness
for money.

An Indian AdHenture.


JUsr before the conclusion of the war
Of 1912, as one Murphy was at work Gle
airing u piece Of woodland, he saw a tall
Indian approaching him from the woods,
with rife on his shoulder. As be came
nearer a belt might be seen round his
waist, in which was tomahawk and
scalping knife, that was partially con
cealed by large blanket thrown over
his shoulder.
Which way are you truveHng?' asked
Murphy.
Don't know, said the Indisn.
Where do you liver was Murphy 5

There, returned the Indian, (point-
ing towards Canada.) And where do

Nurphy's blood began to boil, but he
concealed his excitement as much as pos
sibik, and remarked:
Yes
Did you ever shoot at mark?
'Oh, yes; do you shoot at mark?'
Well, suppose we try, said Murphy.
The Indian ran of some distance, and
putting up mark against a stump, re-
turned.
You shoot first said the Indian.
No, you shoot first
The Indian them shot, and to the as
tonishment Of Murphy, pierced the cen,

loaded. and on Murphy's receiving it he
bounded back, exclaiming,

The savage gave a yell that reverber-
ated through the hill, and drawing his
hunfing knife, sprang toward Murphy;
but ere he reached him a ball from the
rife entered his breast.

WESTERN STocKs IN WALL SrREEE.-
The New York Tribune, speaking Of the
stock sales in WaIl-street en- last Friday,
says
at the Second Board large sales were
made of Erie. One house takes IO,OO0
shares at 1854. This rate broke to I25,
but soOn rallied to 126. The demand
for Ohio and Mississippi certificates grows
out Of a report that the Eastern and
Western sections are to be at once con-
solidated, the preliminary proceedings
being far advanced. It is also reported
that negotiations are in progress to effect
a consolidation With the Atlantic and
Great Western road. In April the cars
of the latter will run into the depot Of
the Ohio and Mississippi at Cincinnati,
and the City Of New York be brought
into direct Union with St. Louis without
changing cars. The dastern division Of
the Ohio and Mississippi road earned

A PARIS correspondent Of the Chicago
Times says that there is in that city; &C
this time, a very lovely, very charming
young lady, Who is destined, BY an sztra-
ordinary fate to 60 through the world
without being married. She is a dark
beauty, with magnificent eyes, a glowing
cheek, lively expression, a graceful
6gure-iu fact, altogether endowed with
every attraction, even to that Of having
in her own right $500, 900, and being ali
only daughteri with the prospect of In
heriting millions. This fair lady is nov
about twenty-six years old, aud has been
engaged to be married twelve times.
Each time the seemingly fortunate lover
has died within a feB weeks Of the fins
appointed for the nuptiaI ceremony. Yet
no suspicion of dagger or bowl can be
cast upon the fair one; a dark mysteri-
GUS fatality has carried them away. Es4.
eral died of typhoid fever; one was kiiis
ed in dpBlj one was thrown from horsei
two were killed BY railroad accidents,
and one-hung himself. The lsdy has
survived al these shocks. Thirteen may
be for her the fortunate, and not the
fatal number. Who will try?
