Two young lawyers, Archy Brown and
Thomas Jones, were fond of dropping into
Smiths parlor and spending an hour or two
with his only daughter Mary. One evening
when Brown had discussed almost every top
ic, Brown suddenly, in his sweetest tone,
struck out as follows:
Do you think Mary, you could leave father
and mother, this pleasant home, with all its
ease and comforts, and emigrate to the Far
West with young lawyer, who had little be-
side his profession to depend upon and with
him search out home, which it should be
your joint duty to beautify, and make delight
full and happy, like this%
Dropping her head softly on his shoulder
she whispered

ing to emigrate, and wants to get wife; I'll
