51 ad am Scandal.
A long time ago, in the Western part of
England there lived an ageti couple, whose
time had past away since early youth, in
every day round of farm life, and who had
never been known to have the least ill-
feeling toward each other since the time
when good old parson Heriot had united
them in the holy bond of wedlock twenty
live years before. So well was the fact of
their conjugal happiness known, that they
were spoken, of far and near as the happi
est pair in England. Now, the Devil (ex
cuse the abrupt mentioned of his name,)
had been trying for twenty years to create
what is called “a fuss iu the family,” be
tween these old companions. But much
to his mortification, he had not beeu able
to induce the old gentleman to grumble
about breakfast being too late, or the old
woman to give a single curtain lecture.
After repeated efforts the Devil became
discouraged, and had he not been a person
of great determination, he would doubtless
have given up the work in despair. Oue
day, as he walked in a very surly mood,
after another attempt to get the old lady
to quarrel about the pigs getting into the
yard, he met an old woman, a near neigh
bor of the aged couple. As Mr. Devil and
the neighbor were very particular friends,
they must needs stop on the way aud chat
a little.
“Good morning, sir,” said she “and pray
what on earth makes you look so bad this
morning; isn’t the controversy between
tbe churches doing good service 1"
“Yes.”
“Isn’t Deacon W. making plenty of bad
Whiskey ?”
“Yes.”
“Well, wliat is the matter, my highly
honored master.”
“Everything is going on well enough,”
replied the devil, “but.” and he looked
sour as a monkey on a crab-apple tree,
old B1 uford and his wife over here are in
juring the cause terribly by their bad ex
ample, and after trying for years to induce
them to do right, I must say, I consider
them hopeless.”
The hag stood amonient in deep thought.
“Are you sure that you have tried ev
ery way ?”
“Every way I can think of.”
“Are you certain V'
“Yes.”
“Well,” she replied “if you will promise
to make me a present of a new pair of
slices, iu case I succeed, I will make an
attempt myself and see if I can’t raise a
quarrel between them.”
To this reasonable request the devil
gladly assented. The hag went her way
to old Blneford’s house, and found Mrs.
Blueford busily engaged in getting things
ready for ber husband s comfort on his re
turn from work. After the usual compli
ments had passed, the following dialogue
took place :
“Well friend B., you and Mr. B. have
lived together a long time V‘
“Five and twenty years, come Novem
ber,” replied Mrs. B.
“And all this time you have never had a
quarrel.”
“Not one.”
“1 am truly glad to hear it,” continued
the hag; “I considered it my duty to warn
you, though this is the case, you must not
except it to he always. Have you not oh
served that of late Mr. B , has grown peev
ish and sullen at times?”
“A very little so,” observed Mrs. Blue-
ford.
“I knew it,” continued the hag, “and let
me warn you to be on your guard.”
Mrs. B. did think she bail better do so,
and asked advice as to how she should
manage the case.
“Have you not noticed,” said the hag.
‘your husband had a hunch of long harsh
hair growing on a mole under his chin on
the side of his throat ?”
“Yes.”
“These are the cause of the trouble, and
as long as they remain you had better look
out. Now, as a friend, I would advise you
to cut them off the first time you get a
chance, and thus end the trouble.”
Soon after this the hag started for home
and made it convenient to meet Mr. B. on,
the way. Much the same talk iu relatiou
to his domestic happiness passed between
him and the old woman.
“But, friend Blueford,” said she “I think
it my duty as a Christian, to .vain you to
be on your guard, for 1 tell you your wife
intends your ruin.
Old Mr. B. was very much astonished,
yet he could not wholly discredit her
words. When lie reached home lie threw
himself on a bed in perplexity, and feigning
himself to sleep studied the matter over in
his mind. His wife, thinking this a good
opportunity lor cutting off the obnoxious
hair, took li£r husbands razor and crept
softly to his side. Now the old lady was
very much frightened at holding a razor so
close to her husband's neck, and her hand
was not so steady as it once was; so
between the two, she went to work very
awkwardly, and pulled the hairs instead cl
cutting them off.
Mr. B. opened his eyes, and there stood
his wife with a razor at his throat. After
what had beeu told him, and seeing this,
he could no doubt but that she intended to
murder him. He sprang from the bed in
horror, and no explanation or entreaty
could convince him to the contrary; so
from that time there was jaw, jaw, quarrel
aud wrangling all the time.
With delight the devil heard of the
faithful emissary, and sent her word that if
she would meet him at the end of the lane,
he would pay her the shoes. At the appoint
ed time she repaired to the spot, and found
the devil at the place. He put the shoes
on the cud of a pole, and standing on the
opposite side of the fence, handed them
over to her. She was much pleased with
them, they were exactly the article.
“But there is one thing, Mr. Devil that
I would like to have explained ; that is,
why did you hand them to me on a stick 1”
"Very easy to.explain,■’ replied lie.—
■‘Any oue who has the cuuuing and mean
ness to do as you have done, don’t get
nearer than twenty feet of me.” So say
ing lie fled in terror.
After a while the old woman died, and
when she applied for admittance to the
lower regions the devil would not let her
in for she might dethrone him, as she was
much his superior. So the old woman is
yet condemned to wander over the world,
creating quarrels and strife in peacefnl
families aud neigborhnods.
Would you know her name 1
It is Madam 8candai. When she
died, the young Scandals were left or'
phans, but the devil, in consideration of
past services done by the mother, ami so
he adopted them, you see. he is father to
that respectable class called scandal mon
gers. Header, dont you know some of tho
family ?
Get Martini.
W e really have faith in early marriages.
Get married, young man, just as soon after
your maturity as you find yourself capable
of supporting a wife modestly and frugally.
Never wait till you get rich ; for the sad
change that may come over the freshness ot
your heart before that time. And then
there are the habits, opinions, associa
tions, all of which becoming a fixed por
tion of your nature, may make you a wiser
man, perhaps, hut will diminish just so
much the uuspeakable beantitude of wed
ded love to a young spirit. No; never
wait till yon get rich for there is some
thing earthly in the pursuit of wealth even,
something so full of the schemes and arti
fices of the day, that the romance of love
is crushed out. The .sentiment is goue.
past all recovery. Marriage is the same,
but alas! we have changed with the time
and custom : and though we may still en
joy it, we cannot find iu it that chivalric
disinteredness, that absorbing sense of un
alloyed happiness which belongs only to
the union of two young hearts unsoiled by
contact with the world.
Y es ; get married young woman. Nev
er pause because be is not handsome. lie
may be good, and that is much Letter.—
Few handsome men are good for much, ex
cept to break wives’ hearts with jealousy,
and fail iu bnisiness, because too much
tempted to attend to it assiduously. Nev
er refuse him because he is not wealthy.
It is far more inspiring to grow rich togeth
er by your united exertion. It is far more
independent for you to reflect that you have
assisted to earn your affluence when it
comes aud that it cannot be said your
husband purchased you with his means,
and, consequently, has no special right to
consider you entitled to any more than
your exactly legal share of liis possessions.
It is far wiser to wed a true man than a
mere pocket-book—for the one is fnll of
love, and the other of illusory promise.—
Let Cupid be your counsellor, young wo
man, and not cupidity.
Husbands and Wives.
Girls, instead of morbidly thinking abont
getting husbands, should endeavor to de
serve them. They are too apt to imagino
that men are obtuse, and can be easily
snapped up as sea gnlls that fall on ship’s
deck in a storm. They are wofnlly mis
taken, aud we would advise all husband
hnnters. as well as those innocent of the
tricks of coquetry, to ponder well over tho
following remark. One quality alone in a
woman will recommend itself to a man of
sense and discretion, and that is good tem
per. This in a wife is one of the gnardi-
aus of home. A wife so gifted is ble.ised
with a yonthful freshness which cheers all
around her. The sternest tears are melted
by the gentleness of woman, and in no
capacity can she more effectually tlevelope
this delightful power than in that ot a
wife. By her persuasive manners she so
licits and commands obedience, and it
should be ber highest aim not to impair
this power. To enable her to do this, it is
necessary that she should know how to
govern her temper; and this she must
mainly effect by stiiving early to adapt
herself to the exigencies incidenal to her
altered position.—Family Journal.
An Expensive Party—The N. Y. Post
says Lincoln and his suit remained for less
than one day at the Delevan House in Al
bany. and a bill was tendered to the
amomit of eleven hundred and twenty
dollars. As there were eighteen persons
in tbe party, two of whom, Mr. and Mrs.
Lincoln, did not dine in tho hotel, the ex
pense of each person, three-quarters of a
day, was just seventy dollars ! Included
in this bill was a charge of three hundred
aud fifty seven dollars for wine, or above
twenty-two dollars or niue bottles a head.
We are not surprised, after such drinking,
at a considerable charge for Congress water.
Neither is it wonderful that the breakages
for stoves, chairs, and so forth, were set
down at a hundred and fifty dollars. Fel
lows with nine bottles of liquor under their
belts most have been in a state to break-
cverythiiig-abont-them, even their own
ueck.
Sonthrrn Printin? Press.
The Atlanta Commonwealth says that for a-
bout six years Mr. Reynolds,of that city,has
been engaged in improving and perfecting
his press, and in that time he has expended
abont six thousand dollars, mostly tbe
earnings of his own labor at his trade,
which is that of a printer. lie has encoun
tered and overcome many obstacles, and
has at last produced a machine whieh is
believed to he equal, if not superior, to any
iu use, considering tbe cost at which it
can- he supplied and the work it can per
form. Within the time mentioned, lie has
perfected four presses, three of which,
adapted to various branches of the printing
business, are in operation in Atlanta.
Salliaquy of a Bachelor.
To wed, or not to wed, that is tbe question :—
Whether ’tis better all alone to suffer
The jokes and laughter of mischievous maidens:
Or to take a wife, dispnte a thousand troubles.
And by thus wedding eud them T To ask—to wed;
Doubt o’er; and, with a wife, to say we end
The heart-ache, and the greatest natural want
That man is heir to—’tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished.
To ask;—to wed;—
To wed ! perchance a vision; aye, there’s the rub.
For iu that state of joy, what storms may come
When we have shuffled off this simple coil,
Mast make us pause; That’s a result
That makes calamity a married life;
For who would bear the jests and jeers of men,
The maiden’s scorn, the widow's cruelty.
The pang of despised love, the day’s delay,
The insolence of rivals and the slights
The doubtful lover ot a lair oue takes.
When he himself might his quietus make
With the first askioe?
Who such burdens bear 1
And groan aud sign, under a single life:
But that tbe fear of something after marriage—
Tbe dread connubial state, from whose boon
No bachelor returns—puzzles our wits :
And makes hs rather bear tbe ills we have,
Tkufj to others that we wot uot of.
