AN INTERESTING ANECDOTE OF ALABAMAS
NEW GOVERNOR - HOW HE CEASED TO
EE A SILENT MEMBER OF CONGRESS.
[Frankfort (Ky) Yeoman].
A octii 1-Tiiau familiur with the facts
whereof lie s;> it Ns relates the follow

ton, tee newly elected Governor oi
Ala Mr. Houston had been a high
b- r of Gougr ss ii'oiu tiie Athens, Ala.,
DiS'rict f>r several sessions prior to
the year 1843. His brother, linsse!l
Houston, Emj„ now of id misvilie, Ky.,
was then practioii.g law in parti ev
sltip with O. A. L*. Nicholson, ;it Co
lumbia, Tenii., botli of them already
running; among; the ablest and most
distinguished lawyers of the bar ol
It it Hi ate. Dunn;; Unit year George,
vi route to Washington, stopped at
Columbia to pay a brief visit to his
brother, then a bachelor living in
cnambers on the (J nu t House square.
Soon after his arrival, all the leading
D in cratic lawyers and politicians
i 1 the place assembled around tit
Russell Houston’s rooms to pay their
respects to , the Alabama Congitss
man. Though wed known as a true
Democrat, G- urge IS. Houston had as
y.-t in t ie but iitile figure in Congress,
iiis brutiier Rivsstll was a Whig.
Among tiie Democratic politicians
who called upon Lulu on tha occa
sion wcje Hon. J,is. K. Polk, Hon. A.
O. P. Ntctioisou, II m. Jas. li. Th a in

-it courHe had a good deal of ctiafi
ter tiie Democratic conclave, and es
pecially lor his corpulent jLocofoco
hidtijcr Finally, half m earnest, Lull!
ii je>t, he let fly ti* the Hon. George
ii the following 11 iriiictic Uxstjion :
“Rook here, George! You've been
go-ng to Cotjgiess now lor Jo! tliese
li.uir or live sessions, and you’ve not
;et iu i-io a s.nglo speech, or done
iiaytiiing else to make yourself talked

wear out the seats of your best

Tni.- speech and a (vice brought

ii [ipi a u 1 1, and. Ami it must have luitl a
powerlni tiled on the hitherto Silent
'iroltiei', for it v> as noted that from
liit time forward George S. Houston
became one ol the tuosi active aiul in
fluential members oi tiie House ol
i! pi'eseiitiuives. lie began to speak
i great de i, and though his spec-cues

How is This for Eye?
The'grey eye is the peculiar eye of
women. Ami here we meet with va
riety enough to puzzle Solomon liim
selr. We will pass over in silence the
sharp, the slnvwdish, spiteful, the
cold ami the wild grey eye; every one
lias seen them—too often perhaps
But then again, there are some beau
tiful enough to drive one wild, an i it
is them which we mean. There is a
•iurk, sleepy, almoii shaped grey eye,
with long black lashes—it goes with
the rarest face on earth—that, sultana
like beauty of jet black hair, ami a
complexion that is neither dark or
fair—almost a cream color, if the
truth must be toLi —and soft and rich
as the leaf of tho'calla E hiopia itself
Directly opposite to this is the calm,
c.eau grey eve— the eye that reasons,
when tins only feels. It looks you
quietly in the face; it views you kind
ly, bug alas, disappointedly; passion
rarely lights it and love takes the
steady bmza of friendship when lie
tries to hide within. The owner of
that eye is upright, conscientious and
pitying his lellow me i, even while ; t
a loss to understand their vagaries.
Ills Hie eye for a kind and consider
ate physician, for a conscientious law
yer, (if such a man there be,) for
wor by village pastor, for a friend as
faithful as any poor human being can
be.
List, of the grey conies Ihe m->sl
mischievous; and a s >ft eye, with a
large pupil, that contracts and dil lies
with a word, a thought, or a flash o!
feeling; that has its snnliy lit, its
moon-beams ami its storms; a woii
ierful eye, that wins you whet her y< ii
will or not, ami lit his you even aft r
it has cast you off. No matter if the
features are irregular and the com
plexion varying, the eye holds you
captive, ami then laughs at your very
charms.
Who Are Your Aristocrats?
Twenty years ago, this one made
candies, that one sold cheese and
butter, another butchered, a fourth
t iiive*l on a disti 1 ry, another was a
contractor on canals, others wore
merchants and mechanics. They are
acquainted with both ends of society,
as their children will be alter them
if uuLl ilkl 1 - f—. I** l'.i ni, /,iit
loud! for often yon shall find that the
toiling worms-hatch butterflies and
they live about, a year. Death brings
a division ol property and it brings
new financiers; the oil gent, is dis
charged, the 'ouug gent tikes his

Curran’s Boyhood.
W Leu a boy, I wnfl one mdrning
. piaying at maibles in the village ball
| alley with a light heart and a lighter
pocket; the gibe and jest went gayly
around, when suddenly there appear
ed amongst ns a stranger of a re
markable appearance. His intrusion
was not tiro least restraint upon our
merry little assemblage; on the con
trary, he seemed pleased and delight
ed
I see his fine dace at the distance.pi
half a century, just as he stood before
me in the little ball alley in the daye
of my enildhood. His name was
Boyce; lie \wts the rector of New
market. To me he took a particular
fancy. 1 was winning, and full of
waggery. Some sweetmeats easily
bribed me home with him. I learned
from poor lioyce my alphabet and my
grammar, and the rudiments of nay
classics. He taught me ;< 11 be could,
and then sent me to the school at
Middleton, in short he made a man
of me.
1 recollect it was about, five and
twenty' years afterwards, wheu I had
risen to some eminence at the bar,
ami when j. had a seat in Parliament,
on my return one day from court 1
found an old gentleman sealed alone
m my drawing room, his feet famili
arly placed on each side of the mar
ble ciiimiiey piece, and Ins whole air
bespeaking the consciousness of one
quae at home, lie turned around —
it was my friend of the ball alley. 1
rushed into his arms and burst into
tears.
Two Strange Human Beings-
I was once sittmg in a cool under
ground saloon at Leipaic, while with
out people were ready to die from
neat, wheu anew guest entered and
took a seat opposite me. The sweat
rolled in great drops down his face,
and he was kept busy with his hand
kerchief, ini al last he found relief in
ttu exclamation, ‘■Fearfully hot.” I
watched attentively as lie called for a
cool drink, for I expected every mo
ment hat he would tail from his chair
in a lit of apoplexy. The man must
nave noticed that I was observing
him, fur he turned toward me sud
denly, say ing, “1 am a curious sort
nf ;l in r. in :) 111 I nnt. v” “Why?” I
asked. “Because i perspire
Llie right side. ’ And so it was; his
right, cheek and the right half of his
forehead were as hot as tire, while the
left side of his lace bore not a trace
of pei spiratiou. I had never seen
the nke, and, in my astonishment,
was about, to enter into conversation
witu him regarding the phyßiological
curio ity, when Ins neighbor on the
ieit broke in with the remark, ‘‘Then
we are Ine opposite and counterparts
of each other, for 1 perspire only on
the left side.” This, too, was the
tact. So the pair took seats opposite
each other, and shook hands like two
men vvno hail just found each his oth
er halt. — Pop. Science Monthly.
Success in Life.—To grow rich is
n ,,t to make mere mouev, but to spend
| UH s. If one is not accumulating
money as fast as be thinks he ought,
the remedy in nine cases out of ten is
no t greater exertiou to make money,
hut greater care to save it. Indeed,
he who saves money systematically,
putting away a part, even though it
lie a small part, of each week’s or
each day’s earnings, is rich already.
His means exceed his necessities, and
that is wealth always. It people gen
erally would conduct their affairs on
tt.e principle above inculcated there
would be comparatively little business
anxiety and much greater comfort
and happiness in the household.

priest showed great heroism, going
into the lire to helo wounded persons

Hu said: “Write only—a priest.”
A cynic observed: “If there is
anything that will reconcile a man to
married life, it is the knowledge that
stea's over him like a dream as he
hursts a button off his trowsers that
there is one at home who can repair
the damage.”
