MISCELLANEOUS.

THE FIUST EnnoK. BT STACY O. JOTTS. Mnry Conway was ihe flower cf her father's Tamil. She was young, and well do I remember, she was beautiful. There is no object beneath ll e. hiii nothing in this wide world, full as it is of allurement, rich a? it is in glorious premises, and golden hopes, and spiiilfctirrin dreams, that burns into the heart l.ke the fresh vision of young an gelic lovelines, in the hey-dey of the passions. Theie is something so pure and innocent, and holy in the mild hitter of her eye; something so heavenly in the soft and gentle smile that plas upon her check and lips; so much cthcrial gracefulness in her form; so many attractions round her, that it seems to me, a beholding intelligence from the court above would bend a moment to contemplate and consider, before he flew to the eternal thor.c to enter the crime of idolatry against her youthful worshipper, in the moment that he lost the recollection of the Creator in ea zing upon her. 1 look back through the mist of -ears, but I see no object be yond it more distinctly than Mary Con way. She married early in youth, advan tageously and harpy: in age and for tune her partner was entirely suitable for her; their minds, too, were similar, nbove the ordinary cast, firmly moul ded, full of sensiblity, delicacy ant! tpint. And the morning of their ma trimoniallifc woreevery presageof long and delightful, and quiet days cf iov If it seemed bl ight to others, it scenv cd doubly flattering to them; and lost in me plenitude of their happiness, they jorgoi, u u naa everentcred their mind? howmuch care andcaution.what watch fulness and forbearence, what kindness and prudence, were necessary to secure the peace and tranquility they now enjoyed. Love does not burn al ways with the brightness of its first light; but it often grows more and more deep, sincere and unchanging as time rolls away. The feelings remain as tender and susceptible, after the shield that protected them from every unkind word or act, has been broken. The business in which they were en gaged was a prosperous one; and Henry was a man of business, industrious, attentive, and intelligent. Every one who spoke of them," prophesied that they would realize a splendid independence. They were the pride cf the village. But how small matters sometimes gives an unexpected direction to the fonunes of kingdoms, ciiics, at.d individuals'. It happened one afternoon, several months after her marriage, that Mary had a little lea parly, at which several matrons of the village were present, and, as is often the case, a long and learned dissertation on the matter of managing husbands, had been given alternately by one and another; husbands and prudent w ives know what such amount to, and of how much value they are to young housekeepers. Unfortunately, Henry returned in the evening, fatigued and weary, both in body and mind, with the labors of the day, and took his scat at the table. His favorite dish was not there. He enquired for it, in a style that perhaps favored a little of reproach; it was unintentional. Mary was in the presence of her self-constituted preceptresses; she was ashamed to appear loo submissive before them, and besides, her feel ings were wounded by her husband's manner. She re plied,' as she thought, spiritedly,but it was really har?h. Hen ry east a single glance across the table, pushed back his plate, and rising, left the room. It was the first error. They were both sensible of it in a moment; but who should make the first collection, where both were plainly wrong? As Henry walked down the street, engaged in unpleasant meditations, and enveloping himself in the gloom, a bright light from the upper windows of ihe village inn, attracted bis notice ; he stepped over; a party of young men were about sitting down to supper; they urged him to join the club; the temptation under the circumstances of the cae, was all powerful. Supper ov,r, he deays a little longer taking his leave; Jiquor was introduced, and he drank; music came next, and cards follow ed! Though he did not join in Ihe last, he looked at Ihe games without abhorretice; the dread he had been brought up in of evil, had been broken. Returning We at night, his spirits, heated with wine, and the rccolh-clion of his wife's behavior before him, he found her retired, and passed the night in another room. The morniii" brought a cool meeting the formal interchange of a few words, and a parting explanation or complaint. The eecd of contention was sewn it bore the fruit that might have been ex pected. His home was no longer the rtr.tre of attraction to Henry. His

avern companions were gay, good hu

mored and alti active; and lie left the tire side of his own mansion, which no onger wooed him as zealously and pow erfully as the ale house club, of w hich he was very soon the centre and lile. File second error was committed. Though unseen by their friends, a 1 I l .11 iL uaric cioua now oiooutu over use lortunes of our young conple. It gath ered daikness, until perceptible to eveiy eve; and when it buit, carried ru in and desolation w ltlv it. Driven to the dangerous company of dissipated, fashionable men, Henry contracted ail their habits; he came a drunkard and a "amb er. 1 lie domestic circle was deserted, and its obligations forgot ten. Mary met her husband's harsh urss and faithlessness with reproaches and bitterness; they both began in er ror and continued so. l tiese errors occasioned loud and lone and violent collisions; a fearful example was llui: set before their children, who grew up disobedient, violent and passionate. And though for many long years the impending bolt of ruin was stayed just above their heads, at last it sped. Henry died a lingering and awful death. His estate was found to he insolvent his children grew up to ruin; and Mary, the once beautiful and enchanting Mary Conway, ended her life in poverty and obscurity. Thus fatal in its diiect and natural consequences was an error, a single error, the offspring rather of accident than intention. I leave the moral for others to trace out and apply. rLAIN AMI PITHY ItKMAKKS OF old iiLT3irimi;Y on fits. Though 1 am no doctor I have by me some excellent prescriptions, and as I shall charge you nothing for them ou cannot grumble at the price. We are most of us subject to fits; I am visited with them m self, and 1 dare say you are also; now then for the prescriptions. For a ft of passion, walk out into the open air; )ou may speak your mind to the winds, without hurting any one, or proclaiming yourself to be a simpleton. For a fit of idleness, count the ticking of a clock. Do tills an hour, and vou w ill be glad to pull off your coat the next, and work like a negro. For a Jit of extravagance and folly, go to the work house, or speak with the ragged and wretched inmates of a jail, and ou will be convinced, Who makes tiis 1k1 of briar and tliorn, Mut l.e content to lie forlorn. For a jit of ambition, go to the church yard, and read the grave stones. They will lell you the end of ambition. The grave will soon be your bed chamber, the earth your pillow, corruption your father, and the worm your mother and your sister. For u fit cf repining, look about for the halt and the blind, and visit the bedridden, and afTiicled, and deranged, and they will make you ashamed of complaining of your lighter affliction. For fts of despondency, look on the good things which God has given you in this world, and al those which he has promised to his followers in the next. He w ho goes into his garden to look for cobwebs and spiders, no doubt will find them, while ho who looks for a flower, may return into his house with one blooming in his bosom. For nil Jits of doubt, perplexity and fear, whether they respect the body or the niimi; wnciner tiiey arc a load to the shoulder?, the head, or the heart; the folio. v ing is a radical cure which may be relied on, for 1 had it from the great physician: "Cast thy burden on the Lord, and he will sustain thee." Management of Colts. The abusing of colts in the first winter, is why they prove so bad for farmers seldom allow their weaned colts any food except hay and that is loo ofien of an inferior quality. Thus are they stinted in their growth ihe first winter to such a degree, lliey never get the better of it. Colts should have the best of clover hay, and their rapid growth would amply compensate the owner for a few bushels of oat meal and bran, to be given them through all winter. In some countries they allow a young colt fifteen bushels of oats. After the first winter they will need no oxtraoidiary feeding till they grow up. Were the above directions observed, we should soon see an improvement in our breed of horses. And it is reasonable to suppose, they would be capable of doing much more work, and be likely to hold out to a greater age. Mttkiicn Gaaelte. "goinc; aiii:ai)p A runaway couple, with their attendants, came to this city on Monday morning, and immediately crossed the river to Aberdeen, a second "Gretna Green,1' in order lo be united in Ihe holy bonds of matrimony. Here they found a magistrate well skilled in the art of m-.trimoniul kuot-tjicg, and who,

when the silver is planked up, is not very scrupulous about the requisitions

of the law. The job was speedily done uid the couple pronounced "man ana w ife." The bride's maid, a plump and rosy lass, at the conclusion of the ceremoney, innocently said, with a winning ai d killing smile, 'that it was so easy a tiling to get married, she would like to try it too.' Her partner, being too gallant to be outdone or back out bravely determined to "go ahead," and instantly shelled out the pre-requisite possiblv a "larkson yellow boy." The suddenly excited hopes were quickly swallowed up in exquisite fruition, and the couple returned to Kentucky with their companions, a delighted husband and wite. jwiysviite ry.) lagie. Doc cheap. A 'Jonathan' from N. Hampshire, called at a barber's shop near the" auction store. He would have his hair cut in the cutest manner and be chaved as slick as a whistle, which was done. 'What do you ax?' says Jonathan. 'Nineteen cents,' says the barber. 'I ha'nl but only jest three cents,' says Jonathan. 'Do vou sunccse 1 would shave and cut hair for nothing?' retorted the bar ber. I guess I can't help if, I ha'nt got no thing but three cents. The barber concluded that a penny saved was better than nothing, so he took Jonathan's three cents led him to the door and gave him a kick which sent him sprawling into the street Jonathan gathered himself up and said to those standing by, 'what barbers you have got; I was shaved, and had my hair cut, and was kicked out of the shop all for three cents; aint that dog cheap by gum!
