cause, as he said, IL was quite trouble enough
to put on one glove, he never wore one on that
hand, and, whenever he supplied HI 3elf, it
was his custom TO tear of the lef ads and
leave them on the counter, and, of course, L
collected them, for you never know how q
thing may come in. Now, gracious, sir, isn't
it heart-breaking to see such beautiful gloves
"'why don't you get right hands made to
them?"
"'Can't, sir; they won't do any thing out of
the usual way, and would charge me Just the
same for the odd gloves as for pairs"
" But you have been paid for them2
"'Oh, yes but should like to turn such
an opportunity to account if Isould, and there
must be lots Of people, If one could only meet
with them, who would be glad to take them
off my hands rrfsr 'fss
And put them on their own? No doubts
now we can perhaps put you in the way of
doing, little business; that is we could have
done SO had we known of this singular story
yesterday-only yesterday There was a
gentleman dining at the Redoute, at the next
table to ours, who ate his dinner with the
help of his left hand only.
"'You don't say SO? Dear me Do you
think, gracious sir, he will dine there again
to-day 2
Can't imagine; but, even If he did, it
would be a somewhat delicate matter to in
troduce to q stranger; challenges have been
known to arise out of much slightsr causes Of
offense.
"'Well, perhaps that would be hardly
worth while; though, after all, you would have
by much the advantage, having two hands to
his one
""Thank you; we are none of us pugna-
ciously disposed, even under the promising
circumstances you point ont.
Suppose went there myself, or, better
still, that inquired of the waiter whore this
one-handed gentleman lived? p
"'That seems the most sensible idea that
has occurred to you yet; and you might per-
haps thus succeed in ridding yourself of the
ive-hngered phantoms which appear to haunt
| your repose. ...
depend upon it, now your graciousness
has put me on the track, shall follow up the
game; in the meantime, 1 thank you, and

$50 we turned on our way, hoping that the
interview might result in rescuing the unfor-
tunate glove-seller from an impending mono
mania; here was certainly an instance of what
Kingsley calls the left-handedness of human
| affairs.

Left.hand Gloves.

We CLEAN, from Pictures of Hungarian
Life" the following amusing sketch of a
Pesth glove-maker:- --''We had been purchas-
ing some gloves, one morning, in the Schlan-
gengasse, when the shopman, Jew, produc-
ing packet which he proceeded to open,
asked if he could not tempt us to make a
capital bargain. 4 could sell you these so
cheap, he said, IF you we're only fortunate
enough to want one glove instead of two, for
they are all for one hand; but see, alas
that, like so many others to whom have
offered them, you are none of you manned.
THAT is q singular cause for regret, GER
tainly; but what in the name of folly ever in
duced you to enter into such sinister specu-
lation? Why did you make lot of odd
glovesg
"'It was not I, gracious sir, who made
them odd. Imade them even enough; it was
q bizarre countryman of yours, MILFORD An
glais, who deprived these gloves of their bet
ter halves.
/" No doubt an officer, who had honorably
earned an empty sleeve
''Not he, gracious sir; he was too indolent
to have got himself into that scrape. He had
two hands, and very fine and white they were,
lust such as milord's should be; and he wore
a magnificent diamond ring on the fourth
finger of his left hand-thunder and lightning!
what ring that was! Now, whether it was
to show the hand, or to show the ring, or be-

If an infsllible Pope were to pronounce his
explanation entirely wrong, and to require
him TO recant ii and to take the words in
their hardest sense ? And the mind that con-
ceived the Syllabus is evidently capable Of yet
stronger denunciations of everything that

wonder that those members of the council
who are rational fight as for life against so
remorseless a conqueror.

SAVE LITTLE EVERY man who is obliged
to work for his living should make it point
to lay up a little for "rainy day." which
we are all liable to encounter when least expec
ted The best way to do this is to open an
account with savings bank. Accumulated
money is always safe; it is always ready for
use when needed. Scrape together five dol
lars, make your deposit, receive your band
book and then resolve to deposit given sum,
small though it be, once a month, or once a
fortnight, or once week, according to circum-
stances. Nobody knows without trying it
how easy thing it is to save money when
an account with bank has been opened.
With such an account man feels a desire
to enlarge his deposit. gives him lessons
in frugality and economy, weans him from
habits of extravaganza, and is the very best
guard in the world against intemperance, dis
spation and vice.

REpUBL1cAN1sM IN SOUTH CAROLINA. -
They have lately had an election for State
officers, members Of Congress and Legislature
in South Carolina. The results of it are not
yet known, but its character to certain ex-
tent may be judged of when we stated that
in the First District the radicals ran Joseph
H. Rainey, mulatto barber, for Congress;
in the Second District they ran Robert g.
DeLarge, also a mulatto; in the Third Dis
trict they ran Col. Robert B. Elliott, gen.
uine negro; and in the Fourth District a
white man, Col. A. S. Wallack. The State
is also entitled to two Representatives at
large; and Lucius Wimbush, mulatto, and
J. p. M. Epping, white, were run by the
radicals. AS the negroes constitute nearly
two to one of the voters, we presume most
of their candidates were elected. They are
to be the successors of Calhoun, Hayne,
McDuffie and Pickens in the National Legisla-
ture. Is it possible to get further down in
National degeneracy and disgrace - Walla

Three things to love-courage, gentleness

Three things to admire-intellectual pow

Three things to hate-cruelty, arrogance

Three things to delight in-beauty, frank

Three things to wish for-Healtb, friends

Three things to avoid-idleness, loquacity

Youth ecstacies to deaden.
While now my precious days glide on,

Meager, own, their gains that would
Be worth their poor repeating.
And this double worth bestows
On hours rs yet unsquandered;

Who the long day has wandered.

For whom life's shadow lengthen;
Above me shine the submits high,

And graves end earth's ambitions3

To live for heavens fruitions.
