ADVICE TO YOUNG MEN.
A lady, who signs herself "A Martyr
to Late Hours" offers the following

"A SSOyt WV pS6uo oSsoVsA NAok
to Late Hours," offers the following
sensible suggeations to young meu =
Dear gentlemen, between the ages of
"eighteen and forty. fve," listen to a
few words of grasuitous remark.
When you make social call of an eve
ming on young lady, 60 away at a red.
sonab!e hour. Say you come at 8 O.
clock, an hour and halfis certainly as
long as .he most fascinating of you in
conversation can, or rather ought, to de-
sire to use his charms. Two hours in-
deed, can be very pleasantly spent with
music, chess, or other games, to leud
variety, but kind sirs, by no means stay
longer. Make shorter calls and come
oftener. A girl-tbat is sensible true
hearted girl-will enjoy it better, and
really value your acquaintance more.
Just conceive the agony Of girl who,
we'll knowing the feelings of father
and mother upon the subject, hears the
clock strike ten, and yet must set on
the edge of her chair, in mortal terror
lest papa should put his oft repeated
threat in execution-that of coming
down and inviting the gentlemen to
breakfast. Aud We girls understand it
al by experience, aud know what it is to
dread the prognostic Of displcasurc. In
such cases sigh Of relief generally ac-
companies the closing of the door be-
hind the gallant, and one don't get over
the feeling of trouble till safe in the
arms Of Morpheus. Even then, some
times the dreams are troubled with some
phantom Of an angry father and dis
tressed (for all partics) mother; and al
because young man will make u longer
call than he ought to.
Now, young gentlemen friends, I'll
tell you what we girls will do. For an
hour and half We will be most irrcsti-
bly, charming and fascinating; then
beware: Monosyllablc responses will be
all you need expect. And if, when the
limits shall have been passed, u startling
query shall be heard coming down
stairs "lsu't it tine to close up 2" you
must consider it righteous punish
meut, and taking your hat, mcekly dc>
part-a saddcr and it is to bo hoped
a wiser man. DO not get angry; but
the next time you come be careful to
keep within bounds.
We want to rise early these pleasant
morni ngs and improve the "shining
hours" but when forced to be up at
unreasonable hours at night, exhausted
nature will speak, and as a natural con
sequence, with the utmost speed in dress
ing, We can barely get down to breakfast
in time to escape rcpri lland from
papa, who don't believe in beaux-as
though he never was young-and II mild
reproving glance from mama, who un-
derstands littlc better poor danghter's
feelings, but still must disapproye out
wardly,. to keep up appearances. And
now, young men, think about these
things, and don't-for pity's sake don't
throw down your paper with 'pshaw"
but remember tho safe side Of ten.

POPPING T17E QUESTION.

Lord Justice Clerk Braxfield was q

habits. In courting his second wife,
his procedure was entirely Illustrative

and l thought you just the person that
would suit me. Let me have your an
swer, yes or no, The morn, and say nae
maire about it,"
The lady the next day replied in the
affirmative.
Perhaps he rcpcntcd his prccipi'ancy.
for when Butler gave warning, on ac
count of Mrs. Braxsficd's scolding pro.
pcnsities, the Judge replied:
"Iord, mon, ye'vc little to complain
o.; yc may be thakfu' yc'rc no married
to her."
The late Professor D. was, prior to his
appointment to his chair, rector of an
academy in Forfarshirc. Hc was par.
ticularly reserved in hisintcrconrsc with
the fair sex; but, in prospect Of obtain
ing profcssorship, he vcnturcsl to make
proposals to lady. They were walking
together, ard the important question
was put Without preliminary sentiment
or notes Of warning. or course tho lady
replied n gentle "no." The subject was
Immediately dropped; but the parties
soon meet again.
"Do you remcmbcr," at length said
tho lady, "a question which you put to
me when we last metz"
The Professor said that he did re-
member.
"And do you remember my answer,
Mr.. d. z"
"Oh ycs," said the Professor.
"Wcll, Mr.. d." proceeded tho lady,
