Young men of SpnrU, I wish you to know,
That high crowned beavers aro now all the go ;
But thuee who wear them excite so much talk,
With one on, through the streets it is dangers to
walk.
The new style of hats doesn’t suit the fair mi,
And the fashion it seems, their sweet temper to
vex,
For we who wear them, have kindly been dubed,
“The Develwh Bummers, aud the beaver club ”
Bes’dse this they aay, we drink with a vim,
And never take a glass but tie filled to the brim.
The wine in our breath, the hats ou our pete,
Are two things the ladies most oordially hale.
Now If we admit what the ladies say, true,
Wh t business have th'-y with whatever we dp 7
If we wi.-h to wear beavers, to drink wine and
moke,
We dou’t ask the ladies to tkink it a joke.
But boys since the ladies our b*avers soh ate,
Let us give them the right to gossip and prate,
We’ll try to bear calmly the hard things they say,
And with our high beavers go walking away.

Miscellany,
From the Saturday Evening Post
Lyle Trent's Lesson.
BY £. A.
“Ob, Lyle, pleose take me to the thea¬
tre to night. Won’t you ? Forrest is to
play Richelieu. I have never seen him
in that, and it will be such a treat to me
Won’t you take me, Lyle ?” and lovely
little Amy Trent looked up from the pa¬
per she was reading into her husband’s
face with violet such a wistful expression in her
large, eyes.
1 you
but then I fear I can’t get off from the
store in time. Next week, maybe, I’ll
have an evening to spare. Bye Bye, pet,
don’t wait tea for me,” and Lyle Trent,
having finished his breakfast, pushed back
his chair, and bad, departed.
“It is too I declare;” and poor lit¬
tle Amy looked ready to cry. “This is
the fourth time he has refused me within
the two months we have been married I
know that he does not stay at the stone so
late Jf evenings; but he always has some
excuse or other. He really deserves to be
punished, so be docs. It is too had in
him always to refuse me in the manner
he does. I won’t stand it,” and Amy’s
tiny hand was clenched into a diminutive
“sledge That hammer.” Lyle did make
evening Mr. not
hie appearance until after ten o’clock.—
Amy looked perfectly bewitching in her
drab merino dress, trimmed with scarlet
velvet, and ribboa on the same hue wound
about her small, graceful head, with its
profusion of dark carls, which forehead were con
tinualiy falling over her in the
most charming disorder, do what she
wou d to keep them in place.
“OU, Lyle, dear, is that you? How
tired you must be, working so hard all
day in that stupul store. Iiete, take this
easy chair, dear, and sheepish,°Lyl take a good rest’”
Looking rather e permit
ted himself to be placed in the artu-chair.
Amy brought hiiu his slippers, and busied
herself about him with numberless litu e
attentions. At last, seating herself on a
low stool at bi< feet, she locked up into
his face with such a demure expression,
“Poor, deear, Lyle, are you a little rest¬
ed now ? I assure you, you quite fright¬
ened me when you came in, you looked so
fatigued. I don’t know how you stand it,
I am sure ; you are not used to it, you
know. Why, before we were married,
don’t you remember, you u&ed to take the
greatest lot of exercise and reoreation ?
Why, you scarcely ever had passed a quiet
eveuing with me, you so many en¬
gagements, you know. You aotualiy us¬
ed! to go over to New York aud Wash¬
ington merely to attend balls or parties
given there; but since we have been mar¬
ried, yon seem to have lost all taste for
such amusements. I hope I am not the
cause of it, atn I, dear ? But here I am
talking; away; aud perhaps you have not
had “Oh, your tea yet Have I’ve you, Lyle ?”
yes, my dear, had my tea.—
The fact is, Randal, Gale and a lot of feU
lows, dropped in to and see me this afternoon,
and we went out took supper togeth*
er.”
“Oh !” was all the answer Amy made,
with the most innocent expression imag¬
inable.
The next evening Mr. Trent did not re¬
turn any sooner; and Amy was compelled
to pass the entire evening as usual, alone.
“Can you spare time to accompany me
to Hafieigh’s this afternoon^Lyle, dear?”
sweetly asked Mrs. Trent, of her liege
lord, one morning. “I want to get some
dresses and things; and I would sq like
you to go with me to b«fp meseiect them.”
“Quite impossible, my dear—out of the
question. I have sot that much time to
spare. Select yo» r dressei by yourself, I
love, and have tbs hill sent to me. am
save that is alt * little wife need ask—
isn’t it f” I
*Oh, yes—T am quite satisfied, »m
sure. Of <ourse I should have liked to
have you with me j but if it cannot be
helped—’ dear, it cannot be helped; per¬
“No, my time—”
haps some other
“Yes, dear, some other time. And
Amy held up her rosebud sf s mouth for
his good-bye kiss.

“Oh, dear, no. Nothing at all. But

“What engagements ? Who ? With ?

lips. “Oh, nothing

and we are going to make a party for the
theatre in the evening, and on Thursday
there is a matinee at the Academy, and in
the evening Mrs. Thornton’s party.—
Harvey Randal promised to be my escort.”
“D—n Harvey Randal,” exclaimed the
now infuriated Lyle, starting up, kicking
footstools, ottomans, “and whatever ob¬
structed his path” about in pictuiesque
confusion.
“Why, Lyle dear! ? What in the world
is the matter with you Are youjll ?”
“No, but I soon shall be if y<w drive

“What, I drive you to destraction,
Lyle ?”
“Yes, you. Have you not been flirting
