Clothes she had taught the elder ones,
they all loved her dearly, and Mr..
Brown was very grateful; and still,
either because his means were INSULT
cient, or because his position was one
of great difficulty, there was some
dreary truth in his gloomy assertion
that they were all going to ruin. She
gently touched his arm, and looking al
him with tears in her eyes, and little
blush on her faded cheek, she said -
Mr.. Brown, am fifty-one. / have
q hundred year, and the house | live
in is my own. love your children,
and they love me,-will you marry me ?"
At first he stared and could not be-
lieve his ears,-thcn burst of tears
expressed his joy; and need it be said
that he accepted Miss Jennings pro-
posal? Need it be said, too, what q
world of good occurred to him and to
his children thereby? And good Miss
Jennings, like the man in our first in
stance, but with far better reason, never
repented. For amongst the results of
next-door neighborships may be num-
bered the matrimonial every now and
then.

The following anecdote is related

The following anecdote is related
as having occurred within the last few
days. King Louis, of Bavaria, not
only holds the dramatic art in high es-
TEEN, but has great liking for the
society Of performers. On the day
Madame Cramer completed her fiftieth
year on the stage, the king gave her
benefit, and after the performance, the
other actors and actresses entertained
her. The king, hearing of this, took it
into his head to surprise them by his
unexpected presence. Madame Cramer,
whose back was turned towards the
door, could not of course see the king
enter the room. The king stepped
quietly up to her, and put his hands
over her eyes, and said, "Guess who it
isl"
"Ahl" said Madame Cramer, " you
again, Monsieur l.? you certainly
do initiate the king most delightfully."-"
90, does be ?" said the somewhat
astonished king. az should rather like
to see the performance Go on, Mon
sieur l., and let me judge for my
self of the truthfulness of the imita-
ton"
II trust your majesty will excuse
me-" replied the abashed actor.
But he persisted in his demand, and
after several refusals he added, 81 de-
sire it, and the king commands it."
The actor bowed and took his seat
at little table, and called out in a
voice which was an exact imitation Of
the king's:-
Desire my private councillor, Riedl,
to come to me-"
Every good, indeed!" exclaimed the
king.
What does your majesty want ?"
asked the actor, speaking through his
nose.
"Capital!" exclaimed the king,
laughing; you initiate my councillor
even better than you did me you are
an excellent comedian, as Madame
Cramer said"
"Riedl," continued the actor, abe.
sure you send tomorrow two hundred
forms to Monsieur l.! he is
deserving fellow,-a better mimic l
never heard"
Scamp" exclaimed the king, laugh
ing, enough Of that performance you
shall have the two hundred forms, but
l shall take care not to ask you for a
repetition of it."

IL A gentlemen going down to New
York, in North river boat, the other day,
missed his tooth brush and on looking
around, was astonished to perceive coun-
try gawk applying it vigorously to his to-
bacco stained worries.
"My friend, you have made very great
mistake in using my tooth brush, !" said the
gentlemen.
"Your what? your brush? You don't
mean to say that this here's your tooth
brush.',
81 do, sir, but it is Of no consequence,
now, you are welcome to the brush.'
The fellow looked puzzled at first, as il
he suspected = trick, but at length he ex-
claimed:
"Here, yeou take your COMPOUNDED

what has become of the tooth brush that
belongs to the boatr'
