Mr. and Mrs. Battle were a fond and lov- I couple, in the town ol \—- ■■, who lor u- I hove a tvvel v’emonth had dwelt one Ht-sh’ n I the law mairimonal. and whose union thus liir I if a shade l-ss blissfu! than that ol the turtle do yes, hud offere.d an exumple of conjugil lc , huifyas edifying, to say tile least, as the gtsn | erality ol inatchcs. It h tpp<>ned one winter evening that hnv ’ mg exhausted their usual themes of chitc-liar •hey had been sitiiug in silence some tcnniin utes, luxuri.iting in ‘the uricommuniciuii inuteiios of fishes ’ when suddenly with a piercing shriek Mrs. B. sprang from her 1 hair and jumped on the side table, crying at i ilie top oi lier lungs. Lord nt mercy! The horrid being! Kill : him Air Battle, kill him !” 1 lie husband, quick as thought, seized the : poker, and though halt Irighit n*d out of his j senses, raided it firmly over his head and pla jeed hitnsell holt upright in attitude of de '••iice. hor some moments he stood speech less, with mingled wonder and awe. then casting a glance at his wife, who stood lean ing against the wall. pule, shivering and hnl. frantic with terror, he at length recovered liis wits and the use ol Iris tongue, so far as to < ask in a voice somewhat faint nnd husky — “ V\ ho—where—what is he !” “ There, there ! husband don’t you see— ! there! It isn’t no man—it is a horrible groat itotise ! Oh dear. 1 shall faint away, certain! 1 There he comes again, this way. Merciful heavens ! Oh. oh !” Mr. 13. breathed a little more freely after (bis last piece ol i(fibrillation, for to say the t ruth, he was by no means a Hercules in strength or statue, (being only four feet elev en in hoots and weighing but jst one hun dred and five pounds even alter dinner ) and .is lie supposed it was some house robber or ut-throat who had hid den himself in the I room and caused his wife’s fright, his knees j iid begun to knock togetlieraTittle, ala Bel •diazar, notwithstanding Ins great show of I bravery. Bui uw regaining with marvelous quiek .e s the use oi .ill his limbs and faculties, he i Jvanced bold ia the direction indicated by drs. 13 s finger, with a courage and presence jf mind worthy of Alexander, succeeded by •he u.s * oi his poker in stretching a must fero ious looking rat lifeless on the floor. After .i U w’ minutes peace and order were (gam restored and Mrs. 13. havingsucceedi and u asto iwiring degree of sell-control, in quiet ing her nerves, was again seated at her work j. table plying her needle when a loud tinkling i ot the door bell was ibllow’ed by the announce- 1 incut of .vlr. Pry. Pry had popped in as he said, -to see how ill did. and have a little social chat.;” but as it lurried out (unfortunately for the peace of our excellent couple ) he was just in season to hear from Mrs. Battle’s lips a relation of what she called. Aly frightful adventure with u ” .\u my dear, - ’ interrupted Mr. Battle, -a rut.” •• Excuse me love : hut ’turns a mouse,” ” I assure you Madam it was a rat.” I bejr your pardon, sir; notwithstanding you assure tne, 1 am quite sure it was hut a mouse.” “ Don’t tell me, Mrs Battle ; do you think I’m a tool, not to know a rat from a mouse, and in my own house too !” Keep cool Mr Battle don’t get huffy just, because 1 spoke a word. ISonie how or other lately I can never open my lips Indore you but you must Hy into u pet. And then you must twit—twit—twitting me always abou; your house as it you were lord of everything here; and I only your humble servant. I de clare Battle. you are as rross ns a bear. Bat tle. and as unreasonable as you can live.” “Mrs Battle you are enough to provoke a saint. Three times you iiave contradicted me and—” ” All because I said a mouse wasn’t a rat. — A mou-v ain't a rat, and you know it.” ‘ Mrs Battle there -hj tins.

V 1 wont Mrs Battle and that's the loni* and short of it.” Here Mrs B. tell back in her ‘ hair, and burst into a flood tears. Pry finding nuttier* getting ;t little too hot, crept sidy out of the the room and running lor home a* from a hor net.*- s nest. Mr. B.iitle pared the room hur riedly to and fro, tor the space of five minutes or more, with blanched cheek and lip quiver ing with r.ige. and finally ab ated hiiim.il b> a window and with an air affected unconcern began to whistle Yankee Doodle. He had been seated but three or lour minutct vvheu his wife suddenly rising up, caiue ucros.* tlte room, threw her arms affectionately about his neck and buried her head in his bosom. “ My dear husband.” 4i My dear wife.” 44 I have offended, deeply offended you, can you Ibi give me.” “Yes sweet, a thousand times.” ** How foolish I was to dispute with you, dear one about such a trifle.” Yes it was cenj foolish in both of us. But never mind, thank heaven we’ve come to our senses again. Kiss me darling; all’s made up. Aint we happy now.” “Aes my love. Clouds will come some times, but thank Providence, they are all gone now. We could’nt expect sunshine always. Oh. wont we have precious times hereafter together, loving each oilier so tenderly? There, it does seem tome as if 1 were at this itonieut perfectly happy.” “file -ill. blessed wife. Kfs me again darling. There we have had our last quar rels haven’t we my own angel one ?” “ ies dearest. And if we were going to qu irrel again which never can be. it would he something of more importance, would it lot love? The more I think of it the more ibolish it appears quarrelling about so trifling a thing as a mouse.” “ Y on forget, iny dear, n rat you mean.” 44 No my dear, 1 inomi a mouse.” 44 How can you, Mrs Hattie nay a mouse when I have lohi you over and over again ’twas .i raf \ D’ye think I’ve no eyes ?” “ I sly what I mean Mr Battle, and l mean ust what Isay.
