HAPPY HOME.

A young man meets pretty face in
the ballroom, falls in love with it, courts
it, "marries it," goes to housekeeping
with it, boasts of having home to 60 to,
and wife. The chances are nine to
ten he has neither Her pretty face
gets to be an old story or becomes faded,
or freekled, or fretted-and, as that was
all he wanted, all he "paid attention to-,
all he sat up with, all he bargained for,
all he swore to 'Elove, honor and protect"
he gets sick of his trade; knows dozen
faces he likes better; gives up staying at
home evenings; consoles himself with
cigars and oysters, whiskey punch, and
politics, and looks upon his home as
very Indifferent boarding house. A
family of children grow up about him;
but neither he nor his fair ''face" know
anything about teaching them; so they
come up helter-skelter-made toys of
when babies, dolls when boys and girls,
drudges when men and women; and so
passes year after year, and not one quiet,
happy, homely hour is knownthroughout
the whole household.
Another young man becomes enamored
ofa "fortune." He waits upon it to par
ties, dances the Polka with it, exchanges
bdtet-doun with it, pops the question to
it, gets Eyes" from it, is published to
it, goes to the parsons with it, calls it
"wife," carries it home, sets up an estab-
lishment with it, introduces it to his
friends, and says (poor fellow y that he,
too, is married, and has home. It's false
He is not married; he has got no home;
and he soon finds it out. He's in
the wrong box; but its too late to get out
of it; he might as well hope to escape
from his coffin. Friends congratulate
him, and he has to grin and bear it,
They praise the house, the furniture, the
cradle, the new Bible, the newer baby;
and then bids the "fortune" aud him
who "husbands it," good morning! AS
if he had known good morning since he
and that gilded "tortune" were declared
to be one.
Take another case. A young woman
is smitten with pair of whiskers.-
Curled hair never before had such
charms. She sets her cap for them; they
take. The delighted whiskers make an
offer, first one and then the other, prof
fering themselves both in exchange for
one heart. The dear Miss is overcome
with magnanimity, closes the bargain,
carries home her prize, shows it to her
pa and ma, calls herself engaged to it,
thinks there was never such pair (of
whiskers) before, and in few weeks
are married. Married !. Yes, the world
calls them so, and we will. What is the
result? A short honey. moon, and then
the unlucky discovery that they are as
unlike as chalk and new cheese, and not
to be made one, though all the priests in
Christendom pronouncnd them SO.

strong pillars shall tremble, the stars lose
their lustre, the glorious orb of day set
forever, the pale "Queen of Night :" be
turned to blood, and hoary-headed Time
weary and heavy laden with years, reach
its final sepulchre, but the soul endowed
with immortal vigor shall triumphantly
outlive the awful wreck of nature. How
short and feeting is the ever changing
drama Of human life, the merry innocence
of childhood, the stern realities of man

is swallowed up in Immortality, and burst

august splendor and glory Of the upper

MARRIAGE SL1ppER.-At a Jewisl

MARRIAGE SLIppER.-At Jewish
marriage I was standing beside the
bridegroom when the bride entered.-
As she crossed the threshold, he stopped
down and slipped off his shoe, and struck
her with the heel on the nape of the
neck. l at once saw the Interpretation
of the passage in Scripture, respecting
the transfer of the shoe to another, in
case the brother-in-law did not exercise
his privilege. The slipper in the East
being taken off indoors; is at hand to
administer correction, and is here used
in sign of the obediance of the wife, and
of the supremacy of the husband. The
Highland custom is to strike, for '.good
luck" as they say, the bride with an old
slipper. Little do they suspect the
meaning implied Urquharfs Pillars

Jones' policy which has proved of such great sat
sfaction both to his friends and the public, has dem
onstrated the fact, that ONE PRICE is the proper
basis on which to do business. Many persons who
are not able to Judge of value of any article,
glad to avail themselves of the opportunity of pur-
chasing where they secure what they want at the
same price as their neighbcrs. Others notlking to
ask the dealers to take less often obliged to pay
too much for article. To meet this want jones'
one price Store has been established, and having
worked well for fifteen years, has gained many
friends.
