HOW TO BIZ MISERABLE.

Sit by the window and look over the
way to your neighbours excellent mansion
which he has recently built. and paid for.
and fitted out "Oh, that was rich
man.'
Get angry with your ncighDor, and
think you have not friend in the world
Shed Il tear or two, and take Il walk in
the burial ground, continually saying to
yourself: "Whcn shall be buried here ?"
Sign note for your friend. and never
forget your kindness, and every hour in
the day whisper to yourself. ~ wonder if
he will ever pay that note?'
Think everybody means to cheat you.
Closely examine every bill you take, and
doubt its being, genuine until you have
put the owner to great deal of trouble.
Put confidence in nobody, and believe
every man you trade with to be rogue.
Never accommodate if you Gan possibly
help it. Never visit the sick and afflicted
and never give farthing to assist the
poor.
Buy rs cheap as You can, and screw
down 10 the lowest mill. Grind the faces
and hearts of the unfortunate.
Brood over your misfortunes, your lack
of talents, and believe that at no distant
day you will come TO want. Let the
work house be ever in your mind, with all
the horrors of distress and poverty.
Follow these recipes strictly, and you
will be miserable to your hearts content
If we may 50 speak-sick at heart and
at variance with the world. Nothing will
cheer or encourage you-nothing throw a
CLEAN of suns shine or a ray Of warmth in
to your heart.

PARROTS.

| Parrots are so very disagrceable To
| most people who count themselves well
regulated that these probably have 70
| idea how many of the squawking birds
are imported into the country for sale.
Thousands are disposed of annually. and
the demand is said To be growing. In
the large cities like New York. Philadel-
pha and New Orleans they find a ready
market, and also in many of the minor
towns. New England is reported to have
