Wedded Love—With Interruptions.

Mr. Spoonbill endeavors to write a “Tew lines” on Wedded Love, but is so interrupted that he has to give it up. We are indebted to Mrs. S. for the MSS.: . What »o sweet as wedded love! What so like the joys above—“Oh, don’t bother me, Maria! What do 1 care for Wood’s Tariff or the Congress?” Where tlio nngels dwell in peace—“Ha! I thought so! Only an excuse to plague me for money. No use to ask me for money for folderols these times.” Where their pleasures never cease. Wedded love—- “ Oh, stuff and nonsense! You’re dressed as well as anyone—as well as I can afford, beside I hate those spring bonnets.” Thy praise 1 sine, For the comforts then dost bring— Comforts calm, serene—- “ Worrying a fellow to death about dresses all the time., Confound the Browns! Let the Browns pay their creditors and see where they’d be! Brown settled for twenty cents —I pay a hundred.” And pure. For the ills of life a cure. Rest for the body, mind and brain— Rest the selfish—“Go to Nantasket for the season! Do you suppose I’m going to make a slave •of myself?” Seek in vainEach for each they ever live. Giving all that they can give Without murmur—- “ There you go — sniveling again. A fellow can’t say a word but out comes the handkerchief.” jK Or complaint—“l’m cross as a bear? Trash! You know better than that. I’m known as the model husband, by George.” Without labor or restraint—- “ You don’t expect me to be tied like a poodle to your apron-strings, do you ?” For the cord that binds the twain Is a soft and silken chain. Every living link a kiss— . “ Don’t love you! Ah, Maria! Well, we’ll try Nantasket. You wrong me, my darling, my treasure. Will fifty dollars do this time?” This, oh! this, is wedded bliss!
