I THE FASTEST FUNERAL ON RECORD. BY FRANCIS A. DURIVAGE. Hurrah ! hurrah ! the dead ride fastDost fearto ride with me Bcroeb's Leonora. This fellow has no feeling of his business Hamlet. I had just crossed the long bridge leading from Bostoo to Cambridgeport, and was plodding my dusty way on foot through that not very agreeable suburb, on a sultry afternoon in July, with a very creditable thun der cloud coming up in my rear, wnen a sioui eiueny gentlemanwith a mulberry face, a brown coat, and pepper-and-salt smalls, reined up his nag, and after learning that I was bound for Old Cambridge, politely invitednie to take a seat beside him in the little sort of a tax cart he was driving. Nothing loth, I consented, and we were soon en route. The mare he drove -was a -very peculiar animal. She had few good points to the eye, being heavy-bodied, hammer-headed, thin in the shoulders, bald-faced, and rejoicing in a little stump of a tail which was almost entirely innocent of hair. But there were " lots of muscle," as Major Longbow says, in her hind quarters. - . .. " She ain't no Wenus, sir," said my new acquaintance, pointing with his whip to the object of my scrutiny " but handsome is as. handsome does. Them's mv sentiments. She's a rum 'un to look at, but a good 'un to go." ... , .. ., ., "Indeed?" " " Yes, Sir ! That there mare, sir, has made good time I may say, very good time before the hearse." Before the hearse ?" " ; ' "!. . " Before the hearse ! . S'pose you never . heard of burying a man on time ! I'm a sexton, sir, and undertaker Jack Crossbories, at your service -'Daddy Crossbone, they call me at Porter's.'' . " Ah ! I understand.' Your mare ran away with the hearse." " Ran away ! A child could hold her. Oh ! yes, of course she ran away," added the old gentleman, looking full in my face with a very quizzical expression, and putting the forefinger of his right hand on the right side of his party-colored proboscis. . " My dear sir," said I, " you have excited my curiosity amazingly, and I should esteem it a particlar favor if you would be a little less oracular and a little more explicit." . 1 ' " I don't know as I'd ought to tell you," said my new acquaintance, very slowly and tantalizingly. " If you was one of these here writing chaps, yon might poke it in the ' Spirit of the Times,' and then it would be all day with me. But I don't care if I do make a clean brea-4 of it Honor bright, you know 1" . Of course." ' " . " Well, then, I Jive a piece up beyond Old Cambridge you can see our steeple off on a hill to the right, when we get a little further. Well, one day, I had a customer (he was carried off by the typhus) which had to be toted into town cause why V he had a vault there. So I rubbed down the old mare and put her in the fills. Ah 1 Sir ! that critter knows as much as a Injun, and more than a Nigger. She's as sober ' as be ,1 d' when she gets the shop that's what I call the hearse behind her. You would not think she was a three-minute nag, to look at her. Well, sir, as luck would have it, by a sort of providential inspiration, the day before, I took off the old wooden .springs and set the body on ellipties. For I thought it a hard case that a gentleman who'd been riding easy all his life, should go to his grave on wooden springs. Ah ! I deal well by my customers. I thought of patent boxes to the wheels, but couldn't afford it, and the parish are so mighty stingy. " Well, I got him in, and led off the string fourteen hacks, and a dearborn wagon at the tail of the funeraL We made a fine show. As luck would have it, just as we came abreast of Porter's, out slides that eternal torment, Bill Sikes, in his new trotting sulky, with the brown horse that he bought for a fast crab, and is mighty good for a rush, but hain't got nigb so much bottom as the mare. Bill's light weight, and his sulky's a mere ' feather. Well, sir, Bill came up alongside, and walked his horse a bit. He looked at the mare and then at me, and then he winked. Then he looked at his nag and put his tongue in his cheek, and winked. I looked straight ahead, and only said to myself, 4 Cuss you, Bill Sikes.' . By and by, he let his horse slide. He travelled about a hundred yards, and then held up till I came abreast, and then he winked and bantered me again. It was d d aggravatin'. Says I to myself, gvs I that's twice you've done it, my buzzum friend and sweet-scented shrub but you doesn't do that 'ere a-rain.' The third time he bantered me, I let him have i It was only saving, ' Scat, you brute F and she was 0ffthat marc, ire had all the odds, you know, for I was toting a two hundred pounder, and he ought to have beat me like breaking sticks, now hadn't he ? He had me at the first brui, for I told you the brown horse was a mighty fast one for a little ways. But soon I lapped him. I had no whip, and he could use his gtrins but he had his hands full.

we went. "afraid of losing my customeron the road. But I was more afraid of losing the race. The reputation ot the old mare was at stake, and I swore she should have a fair cliance. We went so fast that the posts and rails by the road-side looked like a log fence. The old church and the new one, and the colleges, spun past like Merry Andrews. The hackmen did not know what the was to pay, and, afraid of not being in at the death, they put the string onto their teams, and .1-jrti.rinrf on behind as if Satan had kicked 'em on eend. Some of the mourners was sporting charac ters and they craned out ot the carriage winnows aim waved their kanctkercmeis. j.nei.resiuuiiioi ycv. himself, inspired bv the scene, took off his square tile as I passed his house, and waving it three times round his head, cried, ' Go it, boots 1' It is a fact.

EXTRAVAGANCE IN DRESS. There is nothing sought for with more eagerness and avidity by the female sex at the present day than dress! All many of them require is dress; it is a mania wifli t.lipm their besettimr weakness, leading them in to temptations which they make but feeble and ineffectual efforts to resist. They are, from the rich heires down to the servent-maid, actuated by the same de sire. The poor classes will even deprive themselves of the necessaries of life, for the purpose of being enabled to lay the few pennies thus saved at the shrine of fashion. Tight sleeves, bishop sleeves, leg-o'-mutton sleeves, Queen Victoria sleeves, surplice bodies and ruffles, changed with the rapidity of the wind, and ovprv exertion is made bv the poor fashion-struck fe male to "keep up," though it be at the expense of her last shilling and unsatiated appetite. "I'll have itit's all the go," she argues m her own mind; ana away she flies to the milliner or mantua-maker, to purchase un article which, to a person of her condition, can be of no use whatever. This "following the fashion" is one of the worst evils to which females are subject; to gratify their desire for dress, thev not unfrequently resort to degradation and larceny. The majority of the cases of larceny which are tried by our Urmunal (Jourt, ana nave peen com. mir.teri bv females, have originated from this uncon trolled desire for finery. It is with rearet that we look back upon the "linsey-woolsey" times of our forefath ers; the content and comfort everywhere apparent in thoso -times appear to have vanished, and have been superseded by the desire ot gay ana lasmonauie ciocn-Jno-evils which oticht to degrade us in our own opin ion. In those times the t'belles" wore short gowns and petticoats; and certainly their beauty was not depre ciated by the wearing ot sucn a aress. xno wearing of a fur hat or a calico frock then constituted a person a spendthrift, and yet they were happy and contented pride had not made that inroad on them which we have suffered it to make on us. Some females are under the eroneous impression that dress makes loveliness, and creates amiability they cannot be more mistaken. Dress is like a gilded ornament; deprive it of its glittering outside, and its deformity and ugliness will stare you in the face in all its natural colors. Depend upon it, the fashionable female will never make a good housewife; the expens ive habits which she has acquired in her younger days cannot be eradicated in her mature years. Dress is 'the ideal of her soul: she delights to see her person decorated in finery, and fosters the same desire in her children. The husband labors hard, day after day, and yet the fashionable wife, without regard to the severity of his labor, converts the sweat of his brow into extravagant "nothingness" for herself and her crildren, careless of the duty which she owes her husband, and the serious consenuences which misht ensue from the total neglect of her important household affairs. Let our females, both single and. married, bear these facts in mind, and rive them serious attention, and we feel assured that the numerous police cases which swell our columns will diminish. The drunken husband, may be reclaimed by good treatment and attention on the part of his wife, and the petty thief brought back to virtue, if persons who move in a more exalted sphere in life would set them a better example. Let our fe males act economically with their energies and those of their husbands, and they will find contentment and happiness, which hitherto have . been destroyed and usurped by pride.-;- ' ' .,'' ; A Shoemaker's Revenge. An amusing incident of late occurred in a French village. A shoemaker living opposite the tavern, had run up something of a bill, in slacking- his thirst for alcoholics; but when payday came, the Knight of Grispin found himself minus the necessary funds to settle the same. Thereupon the inexorable landlord took his coat in pledge, and politely conducted him to the door en chemise, with a complaisant "good evening," and the assurance that he should have his coat again when his bill was settled. The' shoemaker then retired to meditate upon some signal vengeance, which we commenced putting into execution the following morning. His neighbor of the inn had a goodly breed of fowls, which the Crispin enticed into his shop, with throwing crumbs of bread to them. Flattered with this delicate attention, the poultry resorted every morning to their friend's retreat, to partake of his hospitality; when, one fine morning, the shoemaker made prisoners of the whole : house of unsuspecting guests, and, having plucked their feathers, sent them home with a message, that when their master returned him his coat, they would receive theirs. This act of retaliation occasioned a law-suit in which poor Crispin got the worst of it. Another $10,000 ron Breach op Promise. A jury in Chardon, Ohio, has found a verdict of $10,000 damages against John Sumner, who courted Su sannah Garris for fourteen years, had the marriage day appointed three several times, and then went to the btate ot JSew lorkand earned home another wife.
