It was the misfortune of my friend however, to have embarked his property in large speculations; and he had not been married many months, when, by a succession of disasters, it was swept from him, and he found himself reduced almost to penury. For a time he kept his situation to himself and went about with a haggard countenance, and a broken heart. His life was a pro-i

How to get Employment. On the examination of John McGavit, charged with putting on a female apparel, the following facts were elicited. John is a tall fellow six feet high and upwards, and

The following anecdote we met with lately in an exchange paper: "How is it John you bring the wagon home in such a condition. "l hroKe it armng over a stump. "Where. "Back in the woods, half a mile or so. "But why did yon drive against a stump-couldu't you see to drive straight 'I did drive straight sir,and that is the very reason 1 drove over it.

True, John, the stump onght not to have been in the road, bnt I won der that you were so foolish as not to consider that it was there and that it was stronger than your wagon. "Why, father, do yon think that I am always going to yield my rights? Not 1-1 am determined to stick up to them, come what will. "But what is the use, John, of standing up to rights, when you get greater wrongs, by so doing? "1 shall stand up for them at all hazards.
