Ch.t-flJrtl lor lli»* Ladies. The ]:■(], sos oar limn do net nirio c nough of tkirTiWts. We lately met with it passage of Airs. 13 S' we, a passage em inently adcrossed to a’l, l>■ •tb the lair and the unf; ir f cx, as a modern writer terms the “ Lords of Croatian.” What joys and pleasin' s are derived from Ibosimple word “heme;” and yet 1 w few comparativelyspeakinpr, ever reilm tho tri e meaning by a practical knowledge ! 1 When we l*wc lack at tho past, and re view the feenes *of our PiL. h <od s happy days, it seems as then 'h it were tut yes yesterday,so vivid do they remain in the mind. We would give worlds, wire it in our power, to return once more to the hap py socucs of our school days—to greet the joyous and plcaiiog countenances of tur loved schoolmates. But, alas! we Irtco heel: the few years that we have been absent from tho parental roof, and beheld, what n change! Some ere in far - distant clirnvs, battling with the busy scenes ts life; others have been borne on angels’wings to t! ir heavenly home, where cares are unknown, while but few r - main near the scenes of theirotoo happy youthful days. These werp our happiest day s. We knew no cnre3 or troubles but wb.at were easily overcome, and went tripp ing along with merry hearts. W 1 :atujoyit would beta return to the parental roof once more, and find the same smiling faces end happy groups that once were ours to cr jny! A father’s kind advice, a mother’s love and a sister’s affection are true embh ms of n happy heme. It matters not h6w plain or how rude the dwelling be; if the hearts within beat in union, there is home. It is there the pleasures of life are reaped to their fullest extent. Mansions or palaces do not constitute the perfect homo, without the brotherly love and ass etion we owo-to each other Ao manifest ed ; but most generally the reverse, a miser able r.nd unhappy existence. Our home is what we make it. r c have it in cur power, however poor, to make homo happy ; and should it piovc otherwise, the fault certainly lies in ourselves, "'here is always same came that leads to unhappi ness , and in future let us try to avoid every thing that tends to make us uisirable, that, when this life has run its course, and the sun of existence is tiukmgto r.to no more, we may rut rogret the past. TSre Smiles llmt Grief. Someone observed to Dr. Johnson that it seemed strange that he, vbo so often de lighted bis Company by bis lively conversa ib n, should say that be was mi ruble. “Alas! it i3 all eu‘; ide,” replied the sag'': “I maybe cracking my jokes and curbing the sun. ‘Sun, bow l hate thy beam= !’ ’’ Boswell appends a footnote, in which he rental l;? that beyond ad übt a man may appear very g ay in company v, ho is sad at heart. “I lis in. rriment is hire the sound cf drum3 and trumpots in a battle, to drown tho groans of the v umded cnl dy ing. It is well known that Cowper was in a morbidly desp n lent state when lie penned “John Gilpin,” of which delectable ballad and its congeners ho h.m.v If bears record : “(Strange as it may seem, the most ludicrous lines I ever wrote have b:cn written in the saddest mood, and but fur that saddest mood, perhaps, had never been written at all.” In the height of his ili fortune, in 182(5, Sir Walter Scott was ever giving veut, in his diary, or elsew here, to some \vl imsieal outburst or humorous sally ; and rfeer in diting fin extra gay jcu in his jour nal, just before leaving his dingy Elinlu gh lodgings .for Abbotsford, he follows it up next day by this hit of self-portraiture:— “Anybody would think from the fal-de-ral conclusion of my journal of yesterday, (hut I left town in a very gay humor. Bat na ture has given mo a buoyancy—l knew not what to rail it—that mingles even with my deepest afflictions and most gloomy hour. 1 have a secret pride—l fancy it will bo most truly termed —which impels me to mix with my distress strange snatches of mirth ‘which have no mirth in lhem. : ” Changes in Shokmaktjs g.—A Haverhill (Mass) oorrespon lent of the Salem (Lzitte wys: “ Iho shoo Lus.uc-s here has quite re cently undergone a complete ehaogc. Once’ five years rgo, say —the f hocmakers tool; out their sets of sheer, made them and car ried them in—this latter opcr,.tion usually costing a day or half c. day ; but now every thing is done by steam, and cveiy part of the business is carried on ir:dej cadent of the rest. One shop turns out heels and stlffen ings, another uppers, in another sole leather is cut, and, finally, the goods are made up by steam power exclusively. number of new establishments have been'lately started, worked by steam power entirely.” A Tradition.—lt has been a question for discussion among philosophers, how it hap penq that woman, naturally amiable, when aroused, can say such sharp and penetrating things. The mystery was solved not long since, by the discovery of some very old ar chives, that gives the following explanation of the mat ter: It is sai l th: t when hot sep arated from Abraham, that he determined to iavrsthis surplus fund ; in real estate; and the city of Sodom presenting an inviting field, bo turned his faoc thither, and there located. But so great was the wickedness cf the peo ple, that it was determined by the Creator of tho Universe to destroy the place; accor dingly, messengers were io load Lot and Lis family out; they departed reluctantly; and Mrs. Lot giving her bonnet box to a Bcrvant to bring along, was watching and stop ping for her and scolding withal, when she was suddenly turned into a pillar of salt.— Thus by a strange and wonderful sympathy, u woman’s tongue even to this day is quite salty, whenever she feels disposed to convert it into a saline weapon, especially, if her bon net is missing or a subject of critique.— Southa n Recorder. Nut long since, our friend Brown was on a visit to Lookout Mountain, Georgia, and was much struck with the fact that a fine jet of water was thrown up above the tftp of the eminence on which tho hotel stands.— Malting round the jet admiringly, he accost ed a plain countryman with: “My friend, is this wafer forced up by a ram?” meaning, cf course, the hydraulic con trivance so named. “A ram?” exclaimed the countrvman. “Yes, a ram, I say.” “What on airth—no, Sir; il’sa domed big mule! and it's tremeudous hard work for him. Come here, and I will show him tb you.” Brown saw the mule, and kft HAS HOW IN STORE AND FOR SALE S ALT. * 500 SACKS LIVERPOOL, * 500 BARRELS VIRGINIA.
