Excessively Quiet.

4 Young woman married and
Went.to live at the country resident
of her husband. Her health was
not good, and it was decided that
she should spend a year in strict
retirement. At the end Of six
months, however, she returned to
town, declaring that SO quiet q lite
was more than she could endure.
It appeared that during that time
she had tlairty,seven different ser.
wants, one of whom was discharged
for an attempt to set the house on
fire and one tor'and attempt to rob
the plate closet, while half a dozen
more were SEM away for violent
qnarrels in their part of the estab.
lishment.
Her mother.in-law had been
thrown from a carriage at the foot
Of the lawn and injured fatally; her
sister.in-law had come TO make a
visit and had improved the oppor.
tunity to run away with a man whom
she had been forbidden to marry.
The time had further been broken
in upon by visits from the ak brides
maids Of the hostess, who invited
them in pairs for two, weeks each
and then asked a few men to meet
them, lest it should be duh. A gale
had blown down an oak SO near the
house that its branches dashed in
the drawing room windows and the
stables had been struck by lightning
and burned to the ground.
And such a quiet life" the young
lady said concluding her account.
