WIT & HUMOR. The Married Iff ail. Ilang the women! They are always fretting: about something or other ? Yesterday the coal wouldn't bum and the grate must be set; aud the j furnace must be repaired; and mercy knows what j all; and to-day ifs as hot a* fire. Save U3 from the wants of an inconsiderate woman ! Only let her wants get the upper hand and she'll drive like blazes. But I won’t he driven. Mot L If sho wants the door fixed, or wool dried, or water brought, or the leech set, or the tubs hooped, she may do it herself Confound it I can’t go into the honse but what something is wanting. If it isn’t one thing it is another. I’ll leave my boots in the parlor every night, if I have a mind, and she may help herself. See if I don t. A\ e’ll see who will be master. Before fwe were married it j was—“if you please my dear.” But crackcy, ii j her tune hasn’t changed. She shall and shan’t; from week’s end to week’s end, if I venture to put in a word edge wise, I’m shut up by her infernal clatter. Talk about late hours; I could stay out once until broad day-light, and she too if the par ty was agreeable. But now if I chance to attend the club hut once a week, there is a muss directly. And I don’t ever think of her. Gracious me! I wish I could forget her for five minutes, just to see how it would seern. If a man says a word he is set down for a ninny. lie must grin and bear it if it cuts ever so close. And oyster snp jiers. Wonder is she don’t like oysters. Tell me about the propriety of sitting down to the break fast table with her hair uncombed. Once she was all curls and smiles. Now she’s- as slatternly as a washer-woman. Ilang the race! They ought to bo indicted for obtaining husbands under false yretences. If they would only show out, the men wouldn’t be such gudgeons. No! But no; they smile and spark and twitter, until a fellow is fairly cut, and then Jupiter! if they don’t haul the colors. And to hear the squalling brats nights after night. If I had my way I’d shake the chol ic out of them in a hurry. But no; they must be dosed with pink and anise, and onions, and theduce knows what,and trotted until their gizzards are fairly shaken out; and then if any one is to be kept up, why Slocum can set up, it won’t, hurt him. I’m done with it, I won’t that’s a fact.— What’s that you say ? Mended my pants: and four new shirts and a neckcloth. Well, I declare ! Mrs. Slocum is clever after all. If she didn’t •cold so like—but no matter, I fellow I provoke Ler.ril own up—l’ll The remainder was lost in something like a kiss. Five shirts must have done it—for Slo cum forgot to swear when asked to tend the baby. TUB MAHBIEI) WOMAN. Yes, it’s go, go, go, and get, get, for every body on earth but one’s own wife. If 1 should ask Mr. Slocum to go out at such an hour of the day for a pail of water, or a basket of oranges, d’ye think he’d go? Not lie, not he, 1 might want one a while and take it out in wanting. Oranges, forsooth. ’Twas only yesterday I asked him to call at Williams’ for Charley’s slmeS. Wouldn’t yon liked to have heard him sc< 11, though 1 li’lic didn’t turn up. Always something wanting.— Wished lie could goto the store and hack with outcallingfora dozen articles. And when lie canto in and put them on Charley’s feet, and slapped him for crying because the pegs hurt him. Poor fellow, ho limped round till his father went and pulled them off; the pegs were an inch long at the least calculation. And now, just beeanse Mrs. Brown hints at a water pail, he’s up and'off ill a minute. Why couldn’t Brown go 1 J list ns though her husband won’t good enough to wait on her. I’d show him the difference if I was Brown. A pretty how d'ye do we shall have of it, if things go on at this rate. I’ll ask Brown to do my errands and see how ho likes it. If the girls only knew, lint no, they won’t be liovo a word of it. “Bought wit is the best if you don’t got it too dear.” Dear! I wonder what some, folks call dear? There’s Nelly Bly. You may talk to her till next July and she wont believe it. But she'll learn , a lesson for herself she’ll not forget very soon. If I were a girl again I would’nt change my con dition in a hurry. Not I. There was Slocum, al ways ready to run his legs off, but now lie’ll go sooner for Mrs. Brown than for lr.s own tiesh and blood. But I’ll pay him, seo if I don’t. I won’t get him a mouthful'of supper, lie imt v get his vic tuals where ho does his work. See how he’ll like that. If I should do so; always trying to please other folks’ husbands, instead of my own, we should have a pretty kettle offish. There’s Wil lie, lie’s teased for mi orange these three days, and not the peel of one lias been scan yet. There lie comes puffing like a steamboat. If I had sent him lie wouldn’t been back these two hours. Calling at Mr. Brown’s too. If it aint en ough to vex a saint, I’ll tell him I’il quit—l'll— but in?! he’ll like that too well. The brute. I won’t please him so much. I’ll stay if it kills me, aud Willio shall have an orange if he wants it, and no thanks to him either. There lie comes a gain, and both hands full. Wonder what lie’s got uow, and who he is running for ? Coining through the gate, and yes, both pockets full of oranges. The dear soul—l kuow bo would’nt tbrget bis own children. Won’t Willio have a good meal? And I will—yes, lie shall have mus- Uins for supper. ******* That's all wo heard, for when Slocum opened the hall door, Charley, Willie and wife, all went out to meet him, and get some of those same oranges. Mrs. Slocum did get supper, and Slocum liad muffins. Mow to spoil Cat. The following anecdote we remember to have read several years ago, when it was published in | nearly all the papers. Wo think it will bear an other publication and another reading: Sometime during the last war with Great Bri tain,.the Regiment of Infantry was stationed near Boston. Old 1 Doctor M {pence to his ashes!) was surgeon to the Regiment. The Doc tor was an old gentleman of very precise manners, who stood a great deal upon his dsgnity of do- i portment, and was, in his own estimation, onoj of the literati of the army. Nevertheless, lie was fend of a good joke, provided always it was not perpetrated ‘at his own expense. It is well known, in the “old school,” that at the commencement of the war, a number of citi-j aens were appointed officers in the army, who were more noted for their chivalry than for theccr neatness of their orthography. The Doctor took little pains, to conceal his contempt for the “new set,” One day at mess, after the decanter had per formed sundry perambulations of the table, Capt. S , a brave and accomplished officer, and a great wag, remarked to the Doctor, who had j been somewhat severe in his remarks on the liter-! ary deficiencies of some of the new officer* : I “Doctor M , are you acquainted with Caps ! G ?” i “Yes, I know him well,” replied the Doctor. — ! “lie is one of the new set—but wliat of him ?” | “Nothing particular,” replied Capt S ;“I ; have just received a letter from him, and I will : wager you a dozen of old port that you counot i guess in six guesses how he spells cat.” - AajSjj | “Done,” said the Doctor, “it’s a wager.” “Well—commence guessing,” said Captain “K-a-double-t.” “No.” “K-a-t-c.” “No—try again.” “K-a-t-t-c.” “No—you have missed it again.” “Well, then,” resumed the I toctor, -‘C-a-douhle-t.’ I “No, that’s not the way—try again, it is your ! last guess.” j “C-a-g-h-t.” j “No,” said Capt. S , “tbats not the way— you have lost the wager.” “Well,” said the Doctor, with much petulance of manner “how the Devil does he spell it?” “Why, he spells it C-a-t,” replied Captain 8 , with the utmost gravity. Amid the rears of the mess, and almost chok ing with rage, the Doctor sprang to his feet, ex claiming : “Capt. 8 ,I am too old a man to be trifled with in this manner.” Wit of tlio f'l'Widciitia! Aipirautv An excellent story is told here which I have not yet seen in print. During the recont great fair j at Rochester, a number of gentlemen met at a dinner party there, and among the galaxy of bl ight stars was the distinguished orator of the day Ste phen A. Douglass and the distinguished ex-Secre tary of War, Governor Marcy. The wit and the wine flew apace; and at lenght Governor Marcy, with one of those knowing looks of his, arose and proposed “the health of s .\lr. Douglass, the able j Senator from Illinois—may lie be continued for tlic next six years to fill hisplaeo in the Senate which ho has already so much graced.” The meaning of the sally was evident, and Mar cy’scyes twinkled with satisfaction at the “hit?” No wise abashed, however, “the little giant,” straightened himselfout and after returning thanks concluded by giving “the distinguished ex-Secre tary of War, Governor Marcy, with not a spot on his character, and but one patch on his breeches.” Peals of laughter succeeded the happy retort, shortly after which the Governor was missing, j iC{?’ A little while since an elderly woman en tered the cars at one of the way stations, and took her seat, groaning piteously with her “ldicunvatiz She regaled flume around her for sometime, with an account of her sufferings, and declared sue had tried everything for relief, but had no effect. A gentleman, who had also been a severe sufferer, asked her if she had tried Electricty, assuring her that it had quite cured him. “Electricity?” said she, “ye-a-s—l’ve tried it, It was struck by lightning about a month ago, but it didn’t do me a bit of good.” A Lovmt.— We have heard of a good many enthusiastic lovers in our time, but we think Mr. Toots takes them all down. “If I could bo dyed | black,” said lie to Captain Cuttle, “and made Miss Dombey’s slave, I should consider it a compliment; or if at the sacrifice of all my property, 1 could get transmigrated into her dog, I should be so j perfectly happy I never would stop wagging my ‘ tail,” There’s devotion as is devotion. What’s ! taking arsenic to a man with such feelings ?” A couple of “limbs of the law,” who wore con ducting a suit before a Justice in Rochester, got insensed at one another and finally come to blows.! The court sat by and looked coolly on until the ‘ fracas was over. The two combatants npologi- ! zed for disturbing his honor; but the Justice wip ing his specs, coolly declared that he hadn’t been disturbed in the least—lie rather liked it. tar An i rishitian passing down the street the I other day,"discovered a one dollar hill lying on the pavement. lie eyed the emtur sufficiently to ascertain that it was of the same stamp of one on which, the previous, he had lost ten cents by way of discount —“Badluck to the likes o’ye!” exclaim ed Pat, as lie passed on; “there yo may lie; devil a finger will I put on ye, for I lost ten cents by a brother of yours yesterday.” JCSTFastohocs Taste.—An amusing little in cident occurred at Wright House last evening. A verdent looking chap sat down to take “some til- j liu.” as Joe Lawson would say, and in duo time a waiter presented himself at the back of our hero’s chair and inquired: “Tea or coffee, sir 3” “Tea,” lie answeied. “What kind of tea?” Greeny looked up in the waiter’s face, and with considerable emphasis, said, “Why, store tea, of course; I don’t want your blamed sassafras stuff!” A wag, meeting a literary friend, inquired what effect the addition of the new letter to the alpha bet would have upon the English language ? “New letter?” said liis friend: “I liavo net heard of one being made 3” “Fact; neverthless; and a literary man; you should know all about it ?” “So T should; but as lam ignorant, prehaps you will inform me what the letter is?” “Certainly, sir, let'er rip 1” was the reply. A Conridehate MiKisj.Gß.—A vow dull cler gyman whose delivery was montonous and unin teresting to his hearers, putting many of the old ; folks asl.-ep-said to some boys, who were playing I in the gallery, “Don’t, make so much noise there; | you will awake your parents below.” ; £y“No man,” said Mrs. Partington, “was better calculated to judge of pork than my poor j husband was, when ho was living, poor man; he I knew wliat good hogs were, for lie had been brought lip among ’em from his childhood.” A lawyer, who was sometimes forgetful, having bceu engaged to plead the case of an offeuder, be gan by saying “I know the prisoner at tlio bar i and he bears the character of being a most consnm- J mate and impudent scoundrel.” Here somebo !dy whispered to him that the prisoner was his client, when lie immediately continued: “But what great and good man ever lived, who was not calumniated by many of his cotenipornrics ?” jCSrMrs. Partingtoh, on being told that Mr. Ritchie bad sold, “77tc f/holn,” exclaimed, “Alas! alas 1 1 feared ho would do something awful when 1 heard that Congress had dejected the bill to edenlify him 1 1 wonder if he sold the people with it, and if 1 liavo got to become a niggar slave ? If so, I shall emulate to the South, where they know how to treat the poor critters.” And Mrs. Par j tiugton sighed deeply and said no more. ■j Blessed is tho man that lias two sweethearts; i far if one won’t hear him another will.
