ONE CASE FROM A HUNDRED. At thirty. Hurry RlufTel first sprimisly thought of matrimony. Not that smglf hies- gp(Jr,..«s had turned hitter in his mouth but that ho fanned lie rnuld always love a ft iend, and enjoy n pleasant companion ; and bv one glance at the evening of his days, he perceived it would be n military scene, unless b« could enlist some one to stand interesting ly near him throughout it. He disliked soli tude more than morning walks to market nr tea table talcs of cookery, nod so resolved to gei a wife. *' Matrimony is nno of the must important steps we take in life,” snilh a fash ionable writer. “ I'm sure,” cried a pretty fashionable miss, ” to be married just us one would like, in these days, is as difficult arid fire ns it is important—hniglio !” •• No (liat I am resolved.” said Harry, “ it is the «aural niHlter in the world lit arcompl'sh, and I’ll settle Mrs. RlufTel ill six weeks nl least.” ” System,” says lie, •• system is the soul of business”—und he drew his pocket-book and pete- il forth In make n minute of arrangements. Tho following entry was soon wntlun down, ■no the explanatory monologue spoken: "Ju ly 23— rearm, very irorm—resolved to get a wife. Shall I give reasons f perhaps briefly— well—Resolved to get a wile nj a matter of convenience. Let me see. Thera is Annu A.. Julia II., and Catharine C., aged about 20—24—26. Now possibly there may ba some previous engagement, nr such ii matter, to prevent somu one ol these fulling into my views and arms; but out of the throo I ant lure to get one. I'll wrile them down as I in- tend to proceed in rotation, giving the young er the preference. To offer, 1st, Anna A. ; 2d, Joint B ; 3d. and lastly, Catharine C.” After a week’s courtship. Miss Anna A. number one, declined tho tendered heart and band of her fnend, Harry Bluffel. A minute to tlint effect was made under her name, with Harry’s reason : " Did'nl know on which side htrbread was buttered." On the succeeding Monday evening, a like tender was made to number 2—aged 24- Julia had seen enough of the world and human nature, to know that ■fter ii certain oge” few come to woo, and cilciilnling all her chances, thought tho pre sent offer •• a crisis.” At least she told Harry wilt a blush, “that ah« had been snrptised at bis declarations, and fell almost overpowered by her feelings ; il was a subject of tho deep est moment, and ehe was sure her kind Inend would not object to her taking n week to con tiderit.” Not at ell—not at ell. Harry took out Ilia book na soon oh lie arri- ved home, and ndded to No. 2. " Accepted the girl knows what's what ” Then drawing bis lead twice or thrice across No. 3, he ex claimed, “ the account la closed, error* ex- tepted." Within the sis weeks the wedding day wns fixed. •’ Now my dear.” emd Harry to his Julia on the eve of the Jay, “ to-morrow wo will be practically man and wife, let us be theoretically to to-day. I want to talk of household affaire.” Julia anawered that her father would provide their furniture. “ Nay, but ho won’t provido that which 1 want.” '* O, but he will,” replied the smiling girl, "ho said we ahould have every thing wo Could desire.” *’ Well, my dear Julia, I dcsiro to do just 4 1 l plaase after in irriuge. without cross or tooiibh), let or hindrance t will bo furoub mo ^pir* ii Whatever pleases you will please me.

The furniture was pur- hnsed und arranged—they went to house- reeping. Julia proved n tidy, notable house vife, mid kept every thing in the greatest or- drr nnd cleanliness. All this was necessary to her linsliand’s happiness, for he loved to see things present nn inviting aspect. But Ham loved Ins ease also, and thought it pos sible a woman might he too nice. Here Julia differed with him. 1 I wish, mv dear, you would not come hi at tlint door in wet weather; your feet are sure to soil the carpet." 1 How then shall I get in love I" enquired the affectionate husband. 1 Why. von can go to the other door, so up the kitchen stairs, through the chamber, and dow n into tho silting room.” "There would be little comfort in taking tlint round.

There is a realm where ihe rainbow never fades—where the stars will he spread nut before ns like islands (hat slum- her on the ocean, and whore (lit. beautiful be ings winch here puts before us like shadows, will stay in our pretence forever. English Morality Thirty Years Since.— The extraordinary number of divoree cases submitted lo the legislature in the present ses sion of Parliament has induced an opinion un- favorable to the existing state of wedlock in tills country. If, however, the following statement, copied from n work published llitr- tv years ago, be founded ill fact, this infer ence is not just ; snd il will appear 'lie matri monial sisic has pot suffered any deterioration.

But it is ton |a!e now,” he muttered, as he with drew " the hussy will lead me a most wretch ed life unless I submit. A thousand little evils are mure tolerable than n woman’s tongue.” In wet weather, RlufTel now enters the sitting room via up the alley, through the kitchen, up the staira, through the chamber, and down another flight of stairs. By taking this circuit, he spares tho parlor carpet, and his lady spares him. Recollect both Mr. nnd Mrs. RlufTel mar ried for convenience. Without love they soon censed to respect each other—that fore-taste of bliss which ihe united, devoted heart gath ers from tho smile of its inseparable compan ion. Those pleasant dreams in the arms of purity and faithfulness wh.ch 'steal uvvay life’s hour*—thn sweet thrill of untold joy, felt at every new proof that we are not only instru mental, but necessary to the happiness of our nenresl friend—all were beyond their reach. They had perverted the holy institution of Eden—the only vestigo of Paradise remaining to man. Blasted nupes—realized misery de scended upon then). Julia became a tyranni cal scold — Harry a submissive, spiritless, slave, and ihe spirit uf domes'ic happiness a stranger to both. Married couples supposed to be happy, but who are not so, 1.102 Married couples who may be considered comparatively happy, 135 Married couples who are truly happy, 9 To-Morrow.—To-morrow, that idol deity in which the world have agreed to place their trust; to-morrow, that half-spun thread, on which is hung the weighty concernment of eternity. What is to-morrow I No part of our inheritance; it is a part in the great chain ol'durntion, hut perhaps no pnrt of our present being. Clear, and bright, nnd steady as it shines to-day, somo sudden blast may blow out the lamp of life; and to-morrow may have conveyed us into othor company* and settled iis into other scenes. Boast not of to-mor- row till you have unrolled tho book of fate and learn what to-duy shall bring forth. East night, it is probable many a gay youth threw himself on Ihe bed whence ho shall rise no more, nnd muny n busy head reposed upon tho pillow where it shall sloop, and lakn its rest. How sad and serious lire many now, who but last night were giddy, thoughtless, presump tuous, and veins bow terrible has this to-mnr row proved to nitnv, who but yesterday said unto themselves, it in vet soon enough to re pent. Thou fool, this night shall thy soul be required of lltce ! wns a severe yet gracious wnrniog. In every breeze that blows, there is ii flight of human fate; in every breath, we drink in the deadly poison; every hour, we stand in jeopardy; then every man in his beat estate, is vanity. In every walk we lake, death treads upon our steps; ho watches us in our re moments; he follows os in our business; he min gles with the angels that surround nor bodies, in thnt very moment when we are least appre hensive of our fate, when the t ger springs upon his prey, rejoicing to add to his native horrors, the necessary terror of surprise. In the midst of life wc are in danger of some fa lal blight; in the highest health, we are in danger of some mortal malady. What then is file ? Is it not a fleeting cloud, an evaporating atnoke. an exploding meteor, a painted bub ble !—Break the bubble must, in its grealost beauty, it will break ere night. Beautiful Extract.—It cannot he that earth is man's nnlv abiding place. It cannot be that otir lifo is n bobble, cast up by the ocean of eternity, to float a moment upon its waves and sink into nothingness. Else why is it, that the high and glorious aspirations, which lesp like ingels from Ihe temple of our hears, are forever wandering about unsatisfied ? Why is it that the rainbow and the cloud come over us with a beauty that is not of earth, and then nans off and leave ua to muse upon their faded loveliness ? Why t» it that the stars, wliteli bold their fentival around the midnight throne, aru set above the grasp of our limited Theatre.—Mr. Hackett’s Solomon Swap and Industrious IJonlitlle have drawn excel lent houses at the i reinont Theatre, and we are happy to learn that he has been induced to give ns one more representation of Pauld ing’s new comedy. next week. Mrs. Hackett, who has been very warmly received is enga ged for a few nigtits, lo strengthen such ope ras as the mannger may produce. The Lion of Ihe IVest, was played on Fri day evening, and drew a crowded bouse, not withstanding the inclemency of thu weather. The principal character in this production. Nimrod IVildfire, is, to use his own elegant language, a screamer. Some iden of his pecu liarities may he formed from the following slight sketch which he gives of an affair be tween himself mid a raftsman. " I was ridin’ along the Mississippi in my wagon, when I come aerost a feller floatin’ down stream, settin’ in the stnrn of his boat fast asleep ! Well. I hadn’t hud a fight for ten days—Jelt as though. I should have to kiver toy***r ,n 4 aalt /turret to keep—so YYtilfy about the head and shoulders. So, says I, “ hulloa. stronger ! if yon don’t tako koor, your boat will run nway with you !” So ho looked up at me slantindtrler, ar.d I looked down on him sfiinlindteler—he look out a chor o’ tohaeror, and says lie, “ I dont value you tantamount to that!'' and then the var mint flapped his wings and crowed like acock. I ris up, shook my inane, crooked my neck, and neighed like horse. Ha run his boat plump, hen'd foremast ashore. I stopped my wagon and sol my triggers.—“ Mister,” says he, “ I can whip my weight in wild eats und ride straight through a crab-apple orchard un a flash of lightning. Clear meet-nx disposi- sitton—the best man, if I a’nt, I wish 1 may be tetotacionsly exfluncted !” The two belligerents join issue, and the Colonel goes on lo say— “ He was a pretty severe colt, but no part of a priming te such a feller as me. I put it to kim mighty droll—in ten minutes lie v, lied enough ! nnd swore I was a rip-slnver! " Says I, “ A’nt I Ihe yaller flower of the forest ! and I’m all brimstone but the head, and that’s aquafortis! “Says hv "Stranger you’re a beau ty. and if I only know’d your name, I’d voto for you next election.” Sava I, •• my name is Nimrod Wildfire—half horse, half alligator and a touch of the airthquuke—that’s got tho prettiest sister, fastest horse, and ugliest dug in the district, and ran outrun, outjump,throw down, drag out and whip any man in all Kain- tuck.” LIST OF LETTERS R EMAINING in tlw Post Office ut Jefferson, Jackson county, Ueoigia, 1st October, 1831.
