Lbufe Dale's Experiment. st M*m e. mm***
But Hills more was said by the girii Berths Drake rattled away in her usual happy style but Lizzie waa thoughtful, and ere long they separated.
It was but a few evening* Utter, that Summer Dean called to see Lizzie. He had come to arrange for their marraige.
Stop,' said Lizzie, after some nf the pre liminahes had been arranged. She looked sober and stern—a most strange look for her. 'Stop, there are some things that have never spoken to you about.'
Ah,' uttered Summer, with an expression of surpriae. Yes,' returned Lizzie, with
Summer expeoted to have aoen a dark looking frown upon Lizzie** face but he waa surprised to see in the stead thereof a bright, joyous, beaming, half-rogutah smile.
I tried my experiment," ahe cried, as ahe laid a hand upon her lover's shoulder, "and am happy in my success. 1 knew you loved your social oinb meetings, for I have oAea heard you apeak of tba intelleotual treats you there reoeivod nod whatever may be the real oharaoter of smoking.

he was really opposed.' •I'll lell you what,' returned Berths, with real determination, 'in the first place he shall leave off smoking. O. I do so abominate Ibst filthy tobacco I He mast promise this. Then there are his club meetings: He goes there once a week, and spends half hi* time there*—hi* •Literary Club/ he calls H. —but it's only for tbs purpose of smoking tobacco, and telling stories, that be goes there. He must put a stop to that too. In short be will go where I go.'
Littie Dale smiled. W* *1 am in earnest, Lizzie,' continued Ber* tba, 'and let me adviso you to try some experiment. You, I suppose will be married as eoon as myaelf. Now, Mr. Summer Dean smokes and goes to tbe club too and if I'm not mistaken, he will want to go to the theatre once in a while without yon. You'd better put our foot down before you are married.' And again Bertha's foot came down to give strength to ber meaning.
For some moments Lizzie Dale remained silent, She was a loving young girl, with a soft countenance, light brown hair, and large Instrona blue eyes. She did not look as though she could have faced a very heavy difficulty, but gradually there stole over ber sunny countenance a sort of determined expression, and with a masning look, she said •Berths.

Now, Lizzie Dale was what ihe world would oall rich, while

•Certainly I am,' said Lizzie. 'Lizzie, I fear you do not rightly understand me. I have souglit you Tor my wife beoauoe I believed you to be a pure-minded, loving, virtuous girl. I love you with my whole soul, and I can give you a whole generous heart, an honest name, and an untarnished honor. If you become my wife it shall be my highest aim to make you happy but If light whims are to bo aet down at matter* of grave moment, and if pledges of future conduct art to bo given, for in no way oan yon sooner injure a husband than to distrust him.

"Then you remain here a&d I wflffolHd hHng him home.** satd Mr. Dean to his wifa„ "Now. that weahave come, we muet have his company."* As SuaMSt? apofce he left the apartment. ••An, Bertha,****!*! Ux^eJua balf playful M*e, **l themfht jon were g»i«f te pstt a slop to thi*.*

At that moment the two husbands entered ihe apartment. Henry Wilder looked at his wife nnd found her in tears. A bitter curl half curled about his lips, but the presence of his friends arodied him to a sense of propriety, and he a«ked: "Are you not well, Bertha?" The fair wife returned her husband's took, and placing her arm around hi* neck, she imprinted a trembling kiss upon his lips. Henry Wilder was puzzled, but it was Ihe happiest puzzle that ever fell from his thoughts. The evening passed on. and Bertha grew bright and sparkling in her wit, while her husband seemed bending beneath the weight of her new found joy.
Months rolled on. and Bertha was a happy wife she found in Henry a truly noble and kind husband. The longer ahe lived, the more reason she had to bless the time when she first tried 'Ltzzts DALE'S BxrKaiMcrr.'
.A Mysterious Personage. A Baltimore correspondent of the New York papers, gives the following account of a singular pereonage near that oity, which reminds one of Lincuin Fidelieus, Washington Irving'a "Little Man in Black."
Hia residence is in the country but a few miles from the city. HJ has lived tho life almost of a hermit, seldom appearing outside the walla of his tenement except when called out on apeoisl occasions. Tnere is a marked singularity in tiis dress, general appearance aud manner. Though upon the turning point of fiuy he has remained bachelor. Humble in his profession, being a mimple repairer of clocks, he is proud, and looks down with contempt on those ol wealth and higher rank. He is lord of his caotle, and inhabits it tolmi—has no friends nor companiona, and desires none. Eschews women, and considers them a source of innumerable vexations. VYeaith to his philosophy is an absorbing evil, and mon ey in any shape, except so far as it oontrib.
utes to higher enjoyments as mere dross This singular person has existed in the locality and the same hut lor ma my years, and still his nearest neighbors know him not- He spends only so much of his time at physical labor, (mending clocks) as will supply a plain scanty living, and other requisite mental enjoyments,He visits Baltimore about twelve times year on foot, ao ajranging ia point of time that his entrance and exit are made in the night. ilia psssion is books and mental culture. Though in seeming poverty, be has a well selected library of several hundred volumes containing ail the classics, besides other w.»rks. His visits to Baltimore are generally ol a literary character always bringing away with him, books of a rare quality. To see him, the beholder would suppose he belonged to the ignorant and unlettered divis

Queen Victoria With majesty in their mein, and a lordly contempt for the dwel lers in pumpktn land upon their royal brows they paced the deck in evident satisfaction with themselves, and with an occasional glance of condescending pity upon the Yankee natives about them At length their eyes lit upon one of those queer specimens of New England production frequently set from every feature of Whose face spoke the Yankee. He was a lank six footer, with a sauntering air, his hands thrust in the pocets of his coat, his cap set on the back of bis head, and with supreme indifference to all about him. was lazily pacing back and forth before the British officers, whistling Yankee Doodte. He chanced to wear upon the front-piece ol his cap stamped in leather, the American Eigle, with some appropriate motto. Taking advantage of this, and wishing to have a little sport at his expense, one of the representatives of royalty accosted him with— •Well, my friend, I see yod"Wear tho eagle I suppose you belong to the army.' •Not exactly,'replied the Yankee, touching his cap, a la made de mililaire, 'but 1 have tbe pleasure of informing you that I hold a lieutenant's commission, in the 2i Company of the 13th Regiment of infantry, in the Stale of Connecticut.' 'indeed,' said the officer, 'Is that tlift regiment in whioh they u»e pumpkin vines for trumpets and bean-poles for muskets?'

When you see young lady ao very delicate that sh« can't make her bed, or put a couple of plates upon the table, and yet trots all over town daily, with the speed of a race-horse, to jumble nonsense with the Softpates, and Shippers, and Jenkinses, and Duzenberries, just chalk it down that ahe'a a piece of calico you can't invest a single penny of pulsation in.

The defence theft admitted that, slfioe this marriage, and prior to tho finding of the indictment, Parker was married to jane Johnson, and that he had been living with her in Chicago. Jane Johnson taught school in 1851 in St. Louis and boarded for two nr three weeks with Parker, and his wife. Parker left St. Louis in 1851, returned in 1852, and there lived for a time with his wife.
Objection was made to the competency of th« witness on the ground of the taw that "no black or. mulatto person or Indian shall be permitted to give evidence in favor or against any white person whatsoever."— Tbe word "person" is by lew lobe deemed to include "bodies politic aod corporate." was sjggested that '"if the peoate of tbe State of Illinois" Were ••white" this witness wai not competent to t&stify far them. The court overuled the objection and declined allowing the counsel to introduce evidenoe to ahow that the people were white.
The defence introduced a "pass," certifying that Byrd Parker was entitled io travel anywhere in the States, and that be wouldbe free in March, 1845. The pass bore datein I84&, and was signed by E^wift Kits, in whose charge it was alleged that Mr. Ruggies placed Parker while be waa earning the money to buy himself with.
Some other evidencfe was introduced, allowing tbe good character of Parker. The jury oould not agree aud were discharged, ••i.ej
