UNCLE BENJMIN’S SERMON.
Not many hours ago I heard Un- •
cle Benjamin discussing this matter!
to his sou, who was complaining of
the pressure. 1
“Rely upon it Sammy,” said the
old man, as he leaned on his st iff,
with his grey looks flowing in the
breeze of a May Morning, ‘murmur
ing pays no bills.’ I have been an
observer many a time these fifty years
and I never saw a man helped out of
a hole by cursing his horse. Beas
1 quiet as you can, for notning will
grow under a moving harrow, and
discontent harrows the mind. Mat
ters are bad, 1 acknowledge, but no
ulcer is any the better for fingering,
'fhe more you groan the poorer you
grow.
“Repining at losses is only putting
pepper into a sore eye. Crops will
fail in all soils, and we may be thank
ful we have not a famine. Besides,
I always took notice, that whenever
I felt the rod pretty smartly, it was
as much as to say, ‘here is something
which you have got to learn.’ Sam
my, dont forget that your schooling
is'not over yet, though you have a
wife and two children ”
‘Ay,’ cried Sammy, you may sax
that, and a mother-in-law and two ap
prentices into the baigan; and should
like to know what a poor man can
learn here, when the greatest scho
lars and lawyers are at loggerh< ads,
and cant for their lives tell what has
bccomo oi the money.’ r '
‘Softly Sammy, I am older than
you. I have not got these gray hairs
and this crooked back without some
bunions. I could tell you stories of
the days of continental money when
my grandlather used to stufl a sulkey
box with bills to pay for a yearling
ora wheat lan; and when the Jersey
women used thorns for pins and laid
their teapots away in the garret?
\ou wish to know what you can
learn? \ou may learn these seven
things;
“f irst: that you have saved too
h //e. and spent too mtch. i never
taught you to be a miser, but I have
seen you giving your dollar fora no
tion,’ when \ ou might have laid one
half aside for charity, and one half for
a rainy day.
i “’•(comliy: that you have gone
too much ou credit. I always told
you credit was a shadow; it shows
that there is a substance behind,
which casts the shadow; but a small
bodv may cast a greater shadow, and
no wise man will follow the shadow
an\ luriher than he can sec the sub
stance. \ou mav li aim, that vou
hue followed the opinion and fash
ion ot otHeis, umil vou have been
tier >x cd into a bog.
“i h rd' v: that you have been in
too much na ,ie to become rich. Slow
and easy yvins the race.
“Fourthly: that no course of life
can be depen led upon as always
prospero s. 1 arn airaid the voing
er race ol v,u rking men in America
have had a notion that nobody will
go to ruin on tins side of the water.
Providence has gr atly blessed us,
but we have Become presumptuous.
“Fifthly: that you have not been
thankful enough to God, tor bis ben
efits in past times.
“Sixthly: th.4 you may be thank
ful our lot is not worse. We might
have famine or pestelence, or wa: or
tyrany, or all together.
“And lastly, to end my sermon,
you may learn to offer, yvith more
understanding, th prayer of your in
fancy, ‘gi'e us this dav our daily
bread.
I he old man ceased, and Samrnv
j put on his apron, and told Dick to
•blow away at the forge beHoxvs.
SELLING AN’ORSE.
A tarnal cute fellow called on Joe;
you-knowjoe! with a prettyj
’good horse, for which he asked $l3O.
lie was ripe for a trade, and was’
determined to sell his nag. Joe told .
him he did not want the horse —that
he had more than he knew not what;
to do with it—that fodder was high,
land customers scarce and poor pay*!
All this went for nothing, Joe must
buy his horse whether or no. Just
at this time the man what carries;
round bank notifications, laid a little '
ominous slip on Jvk ’s desk, the j
amount of which was, that Joe had a
note due for SIOO at Main Bank,!
which he was requested to take care !
of.—“l tell you what,” said Joe, “be-)
ing as you have said so much, 1 will
give you this bank notification for
$ 100 and $25 in cash for the horse.’
‘i/oiiel’ said the man.
‘Done!, said Joe. 'The man pock
eted his bills and notification, andj
Joe led the horse into the stable.
The man went off whistling, and
posted down to Main Bank, and
. threw the notification on the counter.
‘l’d thank you lor that sir.’ [’he
Cashier looked at the paper— ‘ h,
■ Mr. ’s not for $lO0 —yes, sir,’
and begun to fumble over the file for
i Joe’s note, and after finding it, he
• made the remark, ‘One hundred dol
, lars, sir.’
• ‘Yes, sir,that is the sum—one hun
dred dollars.’
‘U ell, do you wish to settle it?’
‘Yes, sir, I should like to have
the money.’
{ ‘Money!’
i ‘Yes, tne money for that paper—
you say it is for one hundred dollars.
I’d thank you for it, for I’m, in a hur-
‘ \nd I’d thank you for the money
for the note.’
; ‘Note! have I got to pay you?
the man said this was a nuli.ication
jon the bank!’
‘lt is a notification,’ replied the
i( ashier, who began to perceive how
matters stood, ‘that his note fors 100
is due.’
‘ 1 he d—l!’ exclaimed the p uzzled
trader, as he hurried out o she bank.
He entered Joe’s office im ler a full
head of- steam, and began to let it off
rather fiercelv.
‘lts a bargan gentleman, you
witnessed it,’ said Joe, as he took tie
cigar from his mouth & b f the smoke
curl lazily around the sharp promon
tory which divides his ey es.
‘But —but—the man wants me to
pay your note,’ sputtered the horse i
dealer.
‘I wi h you ansyvered,’ Joe com
post i ; -■ \huuagh 1 must c m.'ess !
'* ! - nn ntio.H d m the trade, i
-Ou m.j i \ )i> phase about it. j

and $25 in ish—you heard it, gen- 1
tiemen, appealing to the b\ standers. 1
After tantalizing the poor lellow I
for about Jiall an hour, Joe at last '
gave him up the horse, and received •
back his notification and cash, can- <

JONATHAN and PBI'BENCE. i

Jonathan felt alloverish, and said he.
liked the text ‘seek and ye shall
find’ was purty good readin. Pru
dence hinted, that ‘ask and ye shall
I receive’ was belter. Jonathan
• thought so too, but this axing was a
1 puzzler. A feller was apt to get in
‘ to a snarl when ho axed and snarling
warnt no fun. Prudence guessed
strawberries and cream was slick.
Jonathan thought they warnt so
[slick as Pru’s lips.—‘Now, don’t,’
said Pro. and she guv Jonathan’s arm
'an involitary hug. He was a lectle

ted some female to look art er the

good bread. 'Now, don’t,’ said Jon-

‘Now, don't, ‘ said Pru. ‘May be

all over, and Prudence replied, ‘lf

I weeks Jonathan and Prudence were
j ‘my old man’ and ‘my old woman.’
I HOW TO CHOOSE A GOOD
HUSBAND.
i Girls'—when you see a young man
jof modest, respectful, retiring man
’j tiers, with unpretending, yet. noble
‘; independence of mind of amiable dis-
■ | position, not given to pride or vani-
ty —such a one will make a good hus-
■ band, for he will be the same to his
wife alter marriege that he was be
fore.
W hen you see a young man who
would take a wife for the value of
herself-—for her beauties of mind
purity of heart, & not for the dazzle
of wealth that man will make a good
husband for his affection will never
lessen, and years, will but serve to
strengthen his attachment, and open
new fountains in the heart, which
! >hall murmur sweetly on to the ocean
of continual happiness.
Never make money an object of
■marriage; if you do, depend upon it,
(as a HaPance for that good, you will
get a I ad husband—one whose love
| and ambition wi l soon be irretrieva
bly eigro.s-.ed in reckless schemes
jot speculation, to the utter disregard
and neglect oi the kindred sympa
thies of natun ,eid more social enjoy
ments of life. When vou see a young
man who is tender and affectionate,
and endowed with happy intellect,
no matter what his circumstances in
life are, he is really worth the win
mug—take him, who can, girls, for
he will make a good husbemd-if you
do not improve such an occasion, a on
may iiveto learn and regret that you
have had but eve such epportunit '..
BE iDTiPU?. PASSAGE.
I “l ife bears u., on the current of
a miglity river. Our boat at first
glides t own the narrow channel
j thrn-igh the playful murmuritigs of
L.e little broods and the windings of
its grassy borders, i’he trees shed
their young blossoms over our voting
heads; the flow ers on the brink seem
to offer themselves to our young
hands; we are happy in hope, and
we gtasp eagerly at the beauties
around u>; but the stream hurries us
ou and still our hands are empty.
Our course in manhood is along a
wider and deeper flood, and amid
objects more striking and magnifi

ex- ited b\ some short-lived disap
