V/i.s it from some feminine malice, to serve some private purpose of her own? The conversation en took an historical turn.

Such was the power she had over the heart of Pericles, that he repudiated his wife to espouse the fair Milanese.' Myself and friend again looked at each other with astonishment. ‘Yes,’ replied I, 'she was a woman with talents of the first order. Then her popularity her eloquence. All the youth, of Athens came to the classes of Aspasia when she delivered the harangues of De- ; inosthenes.’ ‘Demosthenes!’ cried tbe lady, who was I she? Music now broke up the conversation, my friend and 1 not knowing what to I think of the accomplishments and ridicu- l

lous mistakes of our fair hostess. W hat was the meaning of this familiarity with ' certain names, and her entire ignorance of certain others. The enigma had something piquante about it, and I reflected upon it during the remainder of the eve-, ! ning. The next day my friend entered my apartment, and cried, ’the problem is solved; I havejust returned from our friend’s house; he has bought a pocket cyclopedia . which his wife is committing to memory, and it is extremely natural for her to commence at the commencement; she has studied A, as Arebesque, Aspasia, and the others; but of course, as yet, she knows nothing of Demosthenes, nor frescoes, nor Mozart, nor Weber, for the wife of our friend is receiving her education in alphabetical order.’ This was the truth. 1 ’ Some days after 1 again visited the temale scholar; the discourse turned upon politics. She harangued with mnch energy upon the talents of Danton, the ievolutionist It appeared she had arrived at lhe letter D.

A correspondent at Chilicothe, Ohio, under date of February 25, records the ■ following anecdote as a veritable fact: t A week or two since, the woods and ' feeding lots around this little city were > ‘pi rfcetly alive' with pigeons—as, indeed, '' they are every fall and spring. Among tl.i- many whoseized their double-barrel- ! e l guns and rushed to the slaughter, was ! my friend Sam K k, from Bucks Co., I an eager spotsman; so eager upon this oc-1 cas'im, indeed, that after driving at 2-40 peed some five or six miles out from the , town and seeing his bouse property put j away he discovered, with dismay, that he j had left his shot-bag at home! Here was a dilemma for you! And to make the . incident intolerable, the morning was sim-I ply perfect, and the biids settling and rising in clouds! What was to be done?' That was a question upon which Sam exhausted his ingenuity without arriving at any satisfactory conclusion. Having gyrated two or three times around the , eighty-acre lot, to the music of some pro- j sane exclamations, he became calm e- 1 nough to make his mind for the return 1 trip pigeonless. Just at that moment he saw another sportsman drive to the j fence near by, and soon recognized Cab tain R , 'Ah! how lucky!’ thought Sam; ’I can beg, buy, or borrow some

j shot of him. But—but—what if he has | ! a short supply, and declines a divide in view of the multitude of birds? Ah'. 1 I have an ideal’ ; ‘Good morning, Captain II , A , ' beautiful morning, this, for shooting; and the pigions are as thick as blackberries.. ■foot'llmorgen, Herr K k, re- ' sponded the new-comer, who is one.of the , I most gentlemanly, but not of the sharpest, I lof kraut nnd sausage consumers; ‘me . think we have blenty shooten dis day. | ‘Yes, plenty sport, captian. Bn*, I say. Cap, do you see yon coffee-nut tree at the edge of the timber? its big leaves, still hanging, look like pigeons. Now that tree will attract all the birds to alight upon it. S’pose we build a blind there and shoot together to-day? We can take in a thousand or two I guess' ‘Very coot, Herr K k, responded the German, and in a few minutes the cornstalk blind was elected, and the sportsmen ensconced behind it ready for business. On ■■ inie the long line of birds, circling around lim feeding-ground lor a moment, and then settling upon the coffee-nut tree in tens, fifties, hundreds. 'All ready, now. Captain?’ whispered Sam. ‘Yaw? exclaimed the excited Captain. ,Fire together, then’—bang! bang!! I wen’ I’-ith guns, and a dozen hints were 11 ittvri: n the ground ben- ith thejjoe

besides two or three that sailed off wounded, and were lost. ‘Pretty well dune!’ exclaimed Sam, — But let them lie. Captain; we will gather up the spods when we get tired of killing. And so they shot a!) day long, Sam taking especial pains to tire simultaneously with K; and when, on one or two occasions, he accidentally fired alone, the ‘d d gun hung tire,’ or something got in his eyes just as lie puulled the trigger, and resulted in a clear miss. In the evening they divided one hundred and forty three birds bet ween them, and drove home in high giee over their good sport and heavy game-bags. To this hour the Captain has not learned the fact that Sam did not fire a single charge of shot in all that day. Now is the Time to make up (tubs!! GREAT INDUCEMENTS TOR 11.'57!
