At the present time the relations Of the American gov
eminent with all foreign nations peaceful and friend
"; but il impossible conceal from ourselves or from
others the fact that general impression exists both here
aud abroad that these relations are far from certain TO
remain permanent In the tone Of public speeches in
our own country we recognize the evidence of this.
Still is il visible in private conversation and the or
binary discuss ons of men with men. In the British
Parliament there have been recently several debates in
which it was plain that grave apprehensons existed OF
falling out with the United States, and in France where
Government fears and expectations are not so openly eN-
pressed in England it is plain that there Is serious
feeling of anxiety and desire to avoid occasion for quar-
rel with u.s. We cannot be blind to the fact that danger
exists of foreign war after the close of our domestic
troubles and the danger the greater that many of
our own people speak and think of it danger but
rather an event to be desired For this expression OF
opinion is by no means uncommon. Some utter II be-
cause of old and long cherished hostility; Others be-

Prepnring III Time.

y young lady of wealthy parentage. q
fiedgcling from one of our fashionable
boarding-schools, a type of modern ele-.
gance, was recently united by the silken
tie of matrimony to gem of a beau.
The mammas and papas on both sides
being surrounded by all the concomitants
OF luxury, and many an agreeable little
paraphernalia bespeaking the possession
Of the DUST determined to get 'siine
establishment for the young couple, and,
accordingly, they were ''fixcd' in man
sion on Walnut street.
A few days after this, school-com-
panion Of our heroine called upon her
and was surprised to find so many SER
wants about the house.
"Why, Mary" said she, "what in the
name of sense have you SO many people
about your house for?7
'Oh." replied madam, ''we haven't
any more than we want There is but che
cook, one chamber-maid, two house-g.rls,
one house-keeper, and--a-child's nurse. ;.
I'm sure there are not too many"
"Ilo! ha !" laughed her friend, Eswhat
do you want with child's nurse (! OH
that is too funny"
"Wcll, we haven't any immediate nse
for her, but then, when we were married.
Charles said we would want one, and
you know it's not always bes. to leave
things until the last moment"

be imported at SO low a gold price as du-
ring the past four years. This will in
crease the gold value of our own produc-
tion. We have shown the value of de-
laine wool in England, and we have
large quantities Of this class of wool pro-
duced here which is equal and some su-
perior to the English woods, and there is
no earthly reason why this class of wool
should be sold one cent less than it is i'm
England, that is AZ and SAC, say SOC
per lb. in gold.
'But if the farmers are determined to
rush their wool into the market next
June, just as soon as it is sheared, they
must expect that both manufacturers and
dealers will take advantage of their weak
ness, buy their woods a. very low figure,
and either take it out of the market and
hold it until prices advance, or send it to
England and sell it for soc per pound
there. Now the farmer can hold on to
his wool he can If he will Make tile
money which others have made on ac-
count of his flooding the market with it a
few days in June. Let him do with his
wool as he does with every other commo-
dity, sell when the best opportunity offers
and he will have a source of profit he
has not yet reached. Let him wash hi5
wool well, do it up in good shape, with
not too much string, and lie will find that
he has two strings to his bow. lie can
either have SOC per pound gold, or its
equivalent in currency, here, or SOC per
lb., gold, in England. We think when
all these reasons are ca efully and candid
ly examined, it will be found that there
is no reason whatever why the gold price
of wool for the coming year should not be
as high as in 1860"

How TO OPEN OYSTERS. Talking
of opening oysters" said old HntAicane,
''why, nothing's easier, if you only know
how"
"And how's how 2" Inquired Straight.
''Scotch snuff y answered old Hurri-
cane, very sententiously. "Scotch snuff.
Bring little of it ever so near their noses
and they'll sneeze their lids off,"

Carl, ''who has better plan. He spreads
the bivalves in circle, seats himself in
the centre, and begins spinning a yarn.
Sometimes it's an adventure in Mexico
sometimes it's legend of his love
sometimes marvellous stock transaction.
AS he proceeds the natives get interest
ed : one by one they Fgape with astonish-
mcnt at the wonderful and direful whopl-
pers which are poured forth, and as they
cape, my friend whips 'em out, peppers

"Thatll DO" said Straight, with a
deep sigh. 81 wish We had a dozen of
the bivalves here-they'd open easy"

Nor so GooD.-A young gentleman
was paying special attention. 30 a young
hdy, and one day little gin, about five
years old. slipped in and began CONVEX
saton with him: II can always tell"
said she, "when you are coming to our
house." "You can," he replied ''and
how do you tell II" "Why, when you
are going TO be here, sister begins 70 sing
and get good; and she gives me cake and

This was poser 10 the young gentle
man. Fools and children tell the TRUTH

returned no more.

To PRESERVE WooLENs FROM Morus.
The simplest and best way of preserv-
ing woolen through the summer from the
destruction of moths, is to wrap them
well up, after brushing and beating them;
III cotton or linen cloths The moths
can pass neither. Two covers, well waap-
ped around, and secured from the air,
will be sufficient. An old sheet will
answer.
