Then there waa a silence •And then—well !’ said Maria drop ping her eyes on the ground. ‘Eh V Oh. well’’ said John dropping his eyes and Maria’s hand at the same time. ‘l’m pretty sure you love somebody in fact,’ said Maria, assuming a tone of raillery, I know yon are in love, and John, why don’t you tell me all about it at oncet' ‘Well, I * ‘W<ll, I——oh 1 you silly mortal, what .is there lo be afraid off ‘Oh, it ain’t because I'm afraid of any thing at all; I’ll—well, now, Maria, I’ll tall yoa.’ •Well,"now, John.’ ‘Yes.’ ‘I lam in love ! don't tell; you won’t will you T’ said John, violently seizing Maria by the hand, and looking in her lace with the most imp’oring expression ‘Why, ot course you know, John, I’ll never breathe a word about it; you know I won’t, don’t you John ?’ This was spoken in a low whisper, and the cherry lips of Maria were so near John’s ear when ho turned liis head to look at her, there might have occurred a serious collision. ‘Well, Maria,’ said Tdfp, ‘l’ve told you now, and so you shall know all about it. I haye always thought a groat dual ot you, and ’ ‘Yes, John.’ ‘I am sure yon would do anything for me if you could.’ ‘Yes, John, you know I would.’ •Well, 1 thought so, and you don’t know how I’ve wanted to talk to yen about it.’ •I declare John, I—you might have 1 old inn long since, if you wanted to; for I never was angry with you in my life.’ ‘I know you wasn’t, and 1 havo often felt, a great mind to, but ’ ‘lt is not too late now, you know, John.’ ‘Well, now, Marin, do you think I am too young to get married ?’ ‘lndued I do not, John ; and 1 know ii would he a good tiling for you too, lor everybody sms the sooner young people get married the better, whm they are prudent and inclined to one another. ‘That’s just what I think, and now, Marin, 1 do want to get ludrried, and you'll ’ ‘lndeed I will John, for you know 1 was partial to you, and I have often said so behind your back.’ ‘Well, I declare, I have all along thought you won and object, and that is the re tson I have been afraid to ask you.’ ‘Object!

Your mother wants you von—you Stupid !’ exclaimed the mor titled Maria in a shrib treble ; and she gave poor John such a slap i*t the face 'that it sent him reeling. Unhappy Maria—the course ot true love never did ran smooth. As long ago as 1808 Grant said, ‘Let us have peace.’ After the 7th of No vember next we will have it.—N't. Lota's 'Jintes.

The prominence of Butler is really frightening that branch of the Republi can party which thinks open rat.cali'y dangerous to the organizat'on. The Boston Adverdsu' says: “The thing to bo done now is to show that, the Butler ism of the Seventh district is .a local dis ease which does not affect the party of the State.’ The meanest man on the streets now adays is the one who is seen hanging around a hand of streets musicians, near enough to hear the music, but lar enough off to void she hat. ‘You write for money, I write for hon or?’ exclaimed an author in tlie fury ot dispute with another author. ‘Ah! yes, replied his companion, ‘each writes for what he most needs.’ The Republican papers sav that the Northern Democrats sympathized with the South during the war.
