The muttering curse of
Some strong wader in his misery

Monday-Having awakened, enough of
Auroras light had streamed through the
broken shutters to bring to our astonished
gaze picture which would have delighted
any entomologist in the land. Forty differ
ent kinds of bugs ranged along the walls
and windows in forty different directions
They were holding sort of bug dress par
ade, each after his kind. A division of
crickets had formed line across the floor
in front of our larboard window, viewing
with evident astOnishment the movements
and marshaling of the strange hosts. An
exasperated rodent dashed across the floor
and right through the ranks of the crickets,
and these took to the walls, causing gen
eral panic, which sent bugs 70 all quarters
of the walls and ceiling. If they ad not
smelt rat, they might attribute their dis
comfort to his presence.
The sudden darkening of our starboard
window resulted in an investigation as to
the cause. 1t was neither our woodhouse
nor hencoop which had f1oated there, but it
was-occupied by several rats. so foul
and fair day had not. SEEN"
The whole situation was now ascertained
from these questions and answers between
neighbor and passing boatman, bound
in with family whom he had relieved"

LIFE AFLOAT.


Saturday, June 3-Upon this very day
bright and early, we caused our household
effects to be removed to No. - street.
With us into the neighborhood come rumors
of crevasse. When we accosted the land
lord with "how's this for highl' he said it
gave him pleasure to state that the neigh
borhOOd was not only above high water
mark, but above reproach-a highly respect
bic and favored locality. The rent, he said
was $50, positively in advance. He was just
going down town to pay taxes, and if we
found it convenient We iwere spared the
infiction of the remainder of this story by
handing over the amount-iust what he
was short. ..r
iSunddy-Unusual commotion among a
neighbor's Guinea fowls was the first init
nation we had of morning. Boat ahOy,
was the next ominous sound, and this was
soon followed by sudden bump against
what was now the port side of our house.
In moment we were at the window, aud
were there met by sturdy fellow in skiff,
who offered rough apology for having
struck our house land he thought iob),
which he explained as being the result of
race between himself and a competitor to
answer the call of neighbor. He said he
was 'mOvln' of people," and if we had
"ary job" he was at our service.
The price for saving a small family
without children he had fixed at
ten dollars-and the price was risin' with
the waters; in fact, "edacious" fellows in the
Canal street line were charging twice that
amount, without half the convenience he
had to offer. We must be quick, he said.
as he had no time to parley with us, for he
had no doubt people were sufferin', and his
was mission of mercy. When we ex-
pressed determination to await the as
suaging of the waters, with shrug of he
shoulders as he settled to his oars he re-
marked that we must be strangers, who
knew nothing of "crevasse time"
Afternoon-Hayejustm made soundings, and
find two feet of water under our larboard
and two feet four inches starboard window,
and the price of moving still rising. Men
and skiffs dot the waters in every direction
relieving the suffering. Chickens dogs and
goats struggle about in the food while
ducks and geese seem to regard it as a
special dispensation. Many of our neigh
bors were being relieved" while others,
who had not the price of it, accepted the
situation. Soundings were made and re-
corded and everything placed in readi-
ness to "move at moments notice" The
thousand noises gradually died away, until
at last as sleep did weigh our eyelids down
and "sleep our senses in forgetfulness,' we
can barely distinguish

Some strong wader in his misery

gaze picture which would have delighted

A DOMESTIC SToRY.-An editor says
An aunt of ours concluded TO try the eff
feet Of pleasant smile and kind word
upon her husband when he returned from
work She had read how home should
be pleasant, and the wife should always
meet her husband with joyful smile.
The success she met with is best given in
the shape of a dialogue -
Enter husband, almost exhausted,
ana very hungry withal; throws his hat
on the floor, and drops into seat. Wife,
preparing tea looks up with a smile, and
Is glad to see him.
Wife-"Well, my dear, it is so nice to
have you here at meal-time.' CA long
smile.)
Husband-'Yes, / suppose so.'
'Wife-'How has your business pros
pered to dayY (Another smile.)
Husban - About so So
Wife-'Come my dear, your supper is
ready let me draw your chair (Anoth-
er smile.)
Husband, gruffiy-I am too tired to
stir. Wait until l warm my feet
Wife-'Do as you choose, my DEAR
Another sweet SMILEY
Husband-'L O. here, old woman ;
before any more fuss is made about it, /
should like to know what you are grin
ming at
Aunt sighed, and relinquished her
sweet smiles from that date. Uncle was
not one of the romantic sort, and didn't
understand such things.

The CHARACTER OF CROMWELL
From the extreme disgust entertained for
his memory, not only by Papists, High
Churchmen, and extreme Conservatives,
but by moderate Wings, he has risen in
to all butuniversal esteem. Burke even
in his day speaks ofCromwell as great,
bad man; but now men Of orthodox
sentiments admire him for his Calvinism,
the heterodox for his regard to liberty of
conscience, the hero worshiper for his en-
ergy of character, the republican for his
putting Charles | to death, and the Or
angeman for his crushing and butcher
ing the Roman Catholics. Only few
Puseyites express occasionally little
staleand stupid spite at his name, because
he despised such mummeries as they are
trying TO reintroduce into the Church,
and was neither descended from nor gave
birth to "a line of kings: but in this they
are no wiser than beef feater we once
spoke to in the Tower of London. He
was showing the crowns of the various
monarchs who had reigned in England.
We asked why Cromwell's not there.
And he replied: 30, sir, he was not roy
al" Royal No, not in the sense Of a
beef-eater; but, if manhood, courage,
conduct, genius, knowledge of human
nature, and reverence for God constitute
man fitted to govern, then he who
possessed them all and more must have
been true king of men, and the Ed
wards, Henrys, and Charleses look small
and secondrate compared to Old Noll.

SABBATH LABoR.-There is worldly
wisdom as well as religious truth in the
recent declaration of the New York
Tribune, that prosperity on farm de-
pends on respect for the Sabbath. The
oxen need it, the plough horses demand
it. the lamed backs and sore arms of the
great army of the over-worked, cry out
for it. The same paper also utters an
earnest protest against the Sabbath labor
REQUIRED from the women in cheese
factories, as being not only an infringe
ment of the fourth commandment, but
needless. 1t suggests that the two milk
ings used on that day be set for butter,
o. kept over till Monday, or converted
into pork, and says. " The pretenee that
the nature of the cheese business requires
this proclamation and sacrifice is pharisai-
cal sham, it is a mockery and an insult
to common sense, as well as to God"

A son of the late President Tayler
only 21 years old, is an Uhlan in the
Twelfth Army Crops Of Saxony, and
served throughout the Franco Prussian
war. He had been for five years min
ing student at Freiberg, but when the
clash OF arms came he laid aside his
books and sought admission to the SER
vice. By an especial favor of the Minis
ter of War this foreigner was permitted
to enter the ranks of the King ofSaxony.
Being fine-looking, gallant young man
he made an excellent soldier, and his re-
cord as son o. an American President
was enough to cause every officer and
private to seek his companionship. Dur
ing the latter part of the war, young
Tayler is said to have carried his cav
airy lance into several hot engagements.
