ARTEMus WARD-In an affecting account
OF his courtship with" Betsy Jane," Artemus
Ward says:
There were many affectin' ties which
made me banker after Betsy Jane. Her
fathers farm jined ourn; their cows and
ourn squenched their thirst at the same
spring; our old mares had stars in their
torreds; the measles broke out in both fami.

lBetsy James and mine) slept regularly every
sunday IN the same meetin' house, and the
nabors used to observe, 'How thick the
Wards and Teases air,"-It was a sublime
sight in the spring of the year to see our
several mother (Betsy's and mine) with their
gowns pinned up so that they couldn't sile

MEDICINE-Abernethy's prescription
to wealthy patient was: LET your servant
bring you three or four pals of water and
put it into a wash-tub; take off YOUR
clothes, get into it, and from head to foot
rub yourself well with it, and you'll re-
cover"
This advice of yours seems very much
like telling me to wash myself" said the
patient.
Well said Abernethy, "it is open to

THE EVE OF Bartlett would be difficult to
convey to the mind of an ordinary reader any
thing like correct idea of the state of feeling
which takes possession of a man waiting for the
commencement of battle. In the first place
time appears to move on leaden wings every
minute seems an age, every hour day. Then
there is strange commingling of levity and Sc
robustness within him leyity which prompts
him to laugh, he knows not why, and serious
ness which urges him and anon to lift up n
mental prayer to the throne of grace. On such
occasions little conversation passes. The
privates generally lean on their tire-locks, the
officers on their swords and few words, except
monosyllabes in reply to questions put, arc
spoken On these occasions, too, the faces of
the bravest often change their color, and the
limbs of the most resolute tremble-not with
fear, but with anxiety whilst watches con-
suited till the individuals who consult them
grow absolutely weary of the employment On
the whole, it is higher excitement and darker
and deeper agitation than any other in human
life nor can he he said to feel all that man is
capable of feeling, who has not felt it.
