J3 3t. From the I-ondon Court Journal. THE ACCEPTED. I thank you for that downcast look, Aud for that blushing cheek ; I would not have you raise your eyes, I would not have you speak ; Though mute I deem you eloquent; I ask no other sign, While thus your little hand remains Confidingly in mine. I know you fain would hide from me The tell tale tears that steal Unbidden forth, aud half betray The anxious fears you feel; From friends long tried and dearly loved, The plighted bride must part: The freely weep—I could not love A cold, unfeeling heart. I know you love your fottagehome. \5'here, in the summer time. Your hand has taught the clematis Around the porch to climb ; Yon casement with the wild-rose screen, Yon little garden, too, How many fond remembrances Endear them all to you! You sigh to leave your mother's roof, Though on my suit she smiled, And spurning every selfish thought. Gave up her darling child ; Sigh ont for her, she now may claim Kind deeds from more than one ; She'll gaze upon her daughter’s smiles, Supported by her son ! I thank you for that look—it speaks Reliance on iny truth ; And never shall urtkiudness wound Your unsuspecting youth; If fate should frown, and anxious thoughts Oppress your husband’s mind, O never fear to cling to m6— I could not be unkind. Come to my borne : your bird shall have As tranquil a retreat; Your dog shall find a resting place, And slumber at your feet; And while you turn your spinning-wheel, Oh let me hear you sing, Or I shall think you cease to love Your little golden ling. Matrimony.—A man may be cheerful and con tented in celibacy but I do not think he can ever be happy; it is an unnatural state, and the best feelings of his nature arc never called into action. The risks of marriage are for the greater part on the woman’s side ; women have so little the pow er of choice, that it is not fair to say that they arc less likely to choose well than we are: deceived in the attachments they form, and their opinion con cerning men are less accurate than men's opinion of their sex. Now, if a lady were to reproach me for having said this, I should only reply that it was another mode of saying there are more good wives it: the world than there are good husbands, which I verily believe. I know ot nothing which a good and sensible man is so certain to find if he looks for it, as a good wife.—Robert Southey. 55 r e are bound to confess that it seems to us that there is much sense in the above. Matrimo ny is a great subject. Among young people it is a constant theme of conversation, and they never weary in talking about it. \5’hether in the draw ingroom, the street, at moonlight, at public gath erings, in the cars, the boats, the ball-room, the euchre table, the dinner table, or in promending, it still is the largest thread in the loom of chit chat. 5Vell, it is a glorious theme. It involves many considerations. For our part we are not stinted in talking about it, but when Hymen’s golden totch is about to be lighted, we think of smoke and “blue blazes.” All men arc not born free and equal, but with a propensity to grumble, and a right fo gratify that inherent property of their nature. Each in dividual fancies his own fate the hardest. Moore complained and whimpered iu this way : “I never had a dear gazelle To glad me with its soft black eye, But, when it learned to know me well, And loved me, it was sure to die.” To which another miserable mortal adds his own experience in this lngudous bleat:—(was it Charles Lamb') “I never had a piece of tost, Particularly large and wide, But fell upon the sanded floor, And always on the buttered side 1 A melancholly and despairing swain after ap- prpriatiug to his own case the last stanza, passion ately enlarges thereon, and then melts iuto a tub of blubber—ridclicct: “And so with everything in life ; Whene’er it comes my turn to draw, Iu casting lots for fortune’s gifts, I always get the shortest straw. And every gal turns np her nose If I but take a squint at she; So that, in luck, iu love, and toast. There’s never nothing for poor me.” Is it not so ?—Are there not hearts that in one fleeting moment have found an object to cher ish through all the days and dreams this side of the tomb i Have we not at times met up with those whose smiles have made a fairy land of memory, and whose voice of music has lingered as constant as the tones of the sea? Why clings remembrance around some scenes, and forgetting others ? Why is that tiie shadows of melancholy come upon us like the gloom of night, when cer tain names are mentioned .' Why is that little songs move the spirit, and call to the eyelids burn ing tears 1 It Is because the heart has something cherished, deep down in its innermost recesses. There have been those who have gathered in the dawn of youth the brightest flowers, and then pass ed on to long years of sorrows. There have been those who have fondly loved, and yet known no day of returning affection They have treasured for their hopes the happiest anticipations in the sunshine of a moment, and then watched the fa ding of those joys that bloomed in the heaven of their hearts. They have found objects to cherish with bitterness, and cliug to with fondness. They say with Byron: “From the wreck of the past which has perished, Thus much I at least may recall, It hath taught me that what I most cherish’d Deserved to be dearest of all: Iu the desert a fountain is springing. In tlie wild waste there still ts a tree, And a bird in the solitude singing, Which speaks to my spirit ot thee.” ‘•'Ih"y Say” BY MRS CAROLINE LEE IIF.XT/.. “They 8ay!” 5Vho are they! who are the cowl ed monks, the hooded friars who glide with shrouded faces in the procession of life, muttering in an unknown tongue words of mysterious im port? Who are “ they!” The*midnight assassins of reputation, who lurk in the bylanes of society, with dagger tongues sharpened by invention and evenumed by inaiice to draw the blood of inno cence, and, hyena-like, banquet on the dead? Who are "they!” They are a multitude no man can number; black-stolid familiar of the inquisi tion slander, searching for victims in every city, town and village, wherever the heart of humanity throbs or the ashes of mortality find rest. O 1 coward, coward world skulkers! Give me the bold brigand, who thunders along the high ways with flashing weapon that cuts thesunbeams as well as the shades. Give me the pirate who unfurls the black flag’ emblem of his terrible trade, and shows the plank nliick your doomed feet must tread; hut save me from the They Sayers of society, whose knives are hidden iu a velvet sheath whose bridge of death is woven of flowers; and who spread with invisible poison, even the spotless whiteness of the winding sheet.”—Extract form “Earnest l.inwood.” Here is a piquant extract: “He kissed her. and promised. Such beautiful lips 1—Man’s us ual fate—be was lost upon the coral reefs.” *‘A young man in New York advertised for a a wife. In less than two hours says 4 an exchange, eighteen married men sent him word that he might have theirs.” Don't believe a word of it, D. Lochrane, of Lancaster, Pa., getting tired of his wife, aud not having the patience to wait for a divoice, tossed her out of the window—just I brew her away. A lady writing upon the subject of men’s hearts says:—“55'hen men break their hearts, it is the same as when a lobster breaks one of his claws— another sprouting immediately and growing in its place.” The happiest man in the world is the man with just wealth enough to keep in spirits, and just chil dren enough to make him industrious. A cloud upon the soul darkens the world more than a cloud in the firmament. ‘No man can tell,’ says H, W. Beecher, "wheth er he is rich or poor by turning M his ledger. It is tlie heart that makes a man rich. He is rich or poor according to what he is, not according to what he lias.’ To see a wasp-waisted young lady in ringlets, and an abundance of flounces, gracefully sail to the head of the table, and with a voice as angelic as a tenor flute, call the waiter for a plate of cold poi k aud beans, is the most trying thing romance can encounter. The Beggar—a True Tale. One cold winter morning, the last Sunday of December 1849, a half-naked man knocked tim idly at the basement door of a line, substantial mansion, in the city of Brooklyn. Though the weather was bitter, even for the season, the young man had no clothing but a pair of ragged cloth^pants, and the remains of a flannel shirt, which exposed bis muscular chest in many large rents. But in spite of this tattered apparel, and evident fatigue, as he leaned hea’rily upon the railing of the basement stairs, a critical observer could not fail to notice a conscious air of dignity, and the marked traces of cultivation and refine ment in his pale, haggard countenance. The door was speedily opened, and disclosed a large, comfortably-furnished room, with its glowing grate of anthracite; before which was a luxurious ly-furnished breakfast table—a fashionably-attired young man, in a brocade dressing-gown and velvet slippers, reclining in a “faufeual,” busily readhtg the morning papers. The beautiful young wife I had lincored at the table, giving to the servant in traversing its face showed a stratification of lime breast, weening tears of Sweetest joy and thanks- giving. Dr. Haywood retired from the room, and left sister and brother alone in that sacred hour of reunion, saying to himself; “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels ontwms. ,r A Daring Deed of Horsemanship, A MEXICAN SKETCH. ‘If you feel disposed to risk a donbloon—I am bat a poor hunter and cannot place more I shall attempt what a inuchacito of ten years would con sider a feat perhaps.’ ‘And what may that be Senor Cabalero?’ asked tke other sneeringly. ‘I will check my horse at full gallop on the brow of yonder cliff!’ ‘Within two lengths from the brow.’ ‘5Vitliin two lengths—less the same distance that is traced here, on the banks of the Sequai 1 The surprise created by this announcement held the bystanders for some moments in silence. It was a proposal of such wild reckless and daring that it was difficult to believe that the maker of it was in earnest. Even the two officers were for a moment staggered by it and inclined to fancy the Cabalero was not serious, but mocking them. The cliff to which Carlos bad pointed was part of the bluff that hemmed iu the valley. It was a promontory, however, that jutted out from a gen eral iine, so as to be conspicuous object from tha plain below. Its brow was of equal bight with the rest of the precipice of which it was a pert a sort of buttress; and a grassy turf that appeared along its edge was but the continuation of the up per platteau. Its front to the valley was vertical without terrace or ledge, altho’ horizontal seams waiting orders for the household matters of the day, when the timid rap attracted attention. She commanded the door to be opened, but the young master of the mansion replied that it was quite'useless. being no one but some thieviih bag- gar; but the door was already open, and the sympathies of Mrs. Haywood enlisted at once. “Come in to the tije,” cried the young wife impulsively, “before you perish.’ -Thoju^iiflcant, without exhibiting any surprise at such tYmsual treatment of a street beegar, slowly entered tl.h room, manifesting a painful weakness at every step. On bis entrance, Mr Haywood, with a displeasing air, gathered up bis papers and left the apartment. The unwise lady placed the half froztfn man near the fire, while she prepared a bowl of fragrant coffee, which, with abundant food, was placed before him. But, noticing the abrupt departure of her husband, Mrs. Haywood, with a clouded countenance left the room, whis pering to the servant to remain until the stranger should leave. She then ran hastily up the richly-mounted staircase, and passed before the entrance of a small laboratory and medical library, and occupied solely by her husband, who was a physical chemist. She opened the door aud entered the room. Mr. Haywood was sitting at a small table with his head resting on his hands, apparently in deep thought. “Edward,” said the young wife, gently touching him on his arm, “I fear I have displeased you; but tlie man looked so wretched I could not bear to drive him away,” and ber sweet voice trembled as she added, “You know I take the sacrament to-day.” “Dear Mary.” replied the really fond husband. “I appreciate your motives. I know it is pure goodness of heart which leads you to disobey me, but still I must insist upon my former command that no beggar shall ever be permitted to enter the house. It is for your safety that I insist upon it. How deeply you might be imposed upon in mv frequent absence from home. I shudder to think. The mau that is now below may be but a burglar in disguise, and already in your absence taking impressions in wax of the different key holes in the room, so as to enter some night at bis leisure. Your limited experience ot city life makes it difficult for you to ciedit so much depravity. It is not charity to give to the street beggars, it only encourages vice, dearest.” “It may be so,” responded Mrs. Haywood, bat it seemed wicked not to relieve suffering and want, even if the person has behaved badly—and we know it. But I will promise you not to ask another into the house.” At this moment the servant rapped violently at the door, crying out the beggar was dying. “Come, Edward, skill can save him I know,” said the wife hastening from the room. The doctor did not refuse this appeal to his pro- and sandstone alternately with each other, From the sward upon the valley to tho brow above the heights was 1,()()(»feet short. To gaze up to it was a trial to delicate nerves, to look down put the stoutest to the proof. Ail stood watching him with anxious eyes. Every movement was noted. He first alighted lrom the saddle, stripped off his manga, had it earned back and placed out of the way He next looked at his spurs, to see if tho straps were properly buckled. After this he retied his sash, and placed the som brero firmly on his head. He buttoned his velvet catzomers down nearly to bis ankles, so that their leather buttons might not flag open and discom mode him Ilis hunting knife along with tho whip he gave to tiie charge of Don Juau. His at tention was next turned to the horse that stood this lime with his neck curved proudly as though he divined that he was to be called upon for soms signal service. Tlie great bit—an Matnelu—was carefully examined lest there might be some flaw or crack iu the steele. The head strap was buckled to its proper tightness, and then the reins were minutely scanned. These were the hair of a wild horse's tail closely and neatly plat ted. The saddle now had its turn. Passing from side to side Carlos tried both stirrup-leathers, and exam ined the gr> at wooden-blocks which formed the stirrups. The girth was the last as well as tho most important object of his solicitude. He loo sened the buckles from on botli sides and then tightened them, using his knee to effect his pur pose. When drawn to his likiDg, the tip of his finger could not have been passed under the strong leather band. No wonder he observed all this caution, as ihe snapfiing of a strap, or the slipping of a buckle, might have hurled him iuto eternity. Having sat isfied himself that all was right, he gathered up the reins and leaped lively into the saddle. He first directed his horse on a walk along the cliff, within a few feat of its edge. This was to strengthen both himself and the animal. Pres ently the walk became a trot, and then a gentle canter. Even this was an exhibition fearful to be hold. To those regarding it from below, it was a beautiful but terrible spectaale. After a while he headed back towards the plain, and then stretching iuto a gallop—the gait in which he intended to ap proach the cliff—hi-suddenly reined up again so as to throw his horse nearly on his flanks. Again he resumed the same gallop, and again reined up; and this raanauvre, he repeated about a dozen times, now with his horse’s head turned towards the cliff; and now in the directian of the plain. At last lie was seen to turn his horse’s head toward the cliff, and take his firmest seat in the saddle. The determined glances of his eye showed that the moment had come touch for the final trial. A slight touch of the spur set the noble brute in motion, and In a moment be was in fessional vanity, for he immediately followed bis | full gallop, and heading directly for the cliff?— eife's flying footsteps as she descended to the basement. They found the mendicant lying pale and unconscious upon the carpet where be had slipped in his weakness from the chair where Mrs. Haywood had seated him. “He is a handsome fellow,” muttered the doc tor, as he bent over him to ascertain the state of bis pulse. And well he might say so. The glossy locks of raven hair had fallen away from abroad white forhead; bis eyelids were bordered by long raven lashes, which lay like a silken fringe upon his pale bronzed cheeks, while a delicate acquiline nose, and a square massive chin, displayed a model of manly beauty. The suspense was of short duration. Twenty strides brought horse and horseman close to the verge, within half a dozen lengths. The rein stil hung loose, Carlos dare not tighten it. a touch he knew would bring his horse to a halt, and that be fore he had crossed the line, would only be a fail ure. Another leap, another.

He had forgotten for the moment his cold maxims of prudence, and added. “He must be carried to a room without fire, and placed iu a comfortable bed.” The coachman was called in to issist in lifting the atlieletic stranger, who was soon carried to a ! and motionless the spectator might have fancied room in the chambers, where the doctor administer-! an equnstrian statue of broilze,its pedestal tho graceful attitude was fully developed against tho blue background of the sky. The arms, the limbs, the oval outlines of the steed, even the very trappings could be seen distinctly; and for the short period in which they were poised ed with his own hand strong doses of port wine saugaree. The young man soon became partly conscious, but all conversation was forbade him, and he sunk quietly to sleep. “He t is doing well—let him rest as long as he can; should lie awake in our absence, give him beef, tea and toast ad libitum,” said the doctor profes sionally, as he left the room. In less than an hour afterwards, Dr. Haywood and iiis lovely wife entered the gorgeous church of •‘the most Holy Trinity ” Amid the hundreds of fair dames that entered its portals dressed with all the taste and magnifi cence that abundant wealth could procure, not one rivaled, iu grace and beauty, the orphan bride of the physician. Her tall, graceful figure was robed in a violet silk, that only heightened, by contrast, her large azure eyes, bright with the lustre of youthful happiness; yet there was a touch of “tender pity” in their droping lids, that won the confidence of every beholder. The snowy ermine mantilla, which protected her from the piercing wind, revealed, but could not surpass, the delicate purity of her complexion. Many admiring eyes ' followed the faultless figure of Mrs. Haywood, as ’ pinnacle of-the cliff. Shaving a Hole. Old Skinflint was the most colebrated broker in Philadelphia—liis “shaving” operations were fa mous, as he usually took not only the beard and whiskers but “one pound of flesh in addition.’’— Young Harry Scarum was one of those dashing chaps who love wine and horses and who form a majority of the borrowers. Harry having many wants, on various occasions borrowed of Skinfliut at three pe>- cent, a month “off,” and having at sundry periods made “raises," paid off his respon sibilities.

It would be six years be fore his estatecould be sold, under the terms of hig father’s will who had prudently postponed that e- vent until Hary should reach the age of jthirty and Harry concluded it would be better to mak*a heavy operation at once, and be rid of the brotberation of continual borrowing. Away to Skinflint’s he hied, determined to procure a good round sum and so.be done with it. •‘I want ten thousand ior six years.” “Hem! what security will you give?” “Ob you have uty bond—that will bind my prop erty?” •Hem! what discount will yon give?

The stately organ had peeled its last rich notes which were still faintly echoing in the distant arches, when a stranger of venerable aspect, who bad previously taken no part in the services of the alter, rose, aud announced for his text the oft- quoted but seldom applied words of the Apostle: “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” Dr. Haywood felt his forehead flush painfully; it appeared to him for the moment that the preacher must have known of bis want of charity towards strangers, and wished to give him a public lesson; but be soon saw, from the tenor of bis remarks, that his own guilty conscience had alone made the application in his particular case. I have not space nor indeed the power to give any synopsis of the sermon; but that it, combined with the incident of the morning, effected a happy revolu tion iq the mind of at least one of its hearers. [ So much that on the return of Dr. Haywood from ; church lie repaired at once to the room of the j “I won't pay what I have been paying; You take one and it ‘out’ a quarter per cent, is enough aud take what I owe you besides.” “Hem! well, here’s a bond for ten thousand dol lars for six years; sign, it, and it will all be right.”. No sooner said than done. Harry affixed hig au tograph, and hummed a tune while Skinflint gat his check book and made a calculation. “Have you got ten dollars about you?” asked Skinflint in a moment; if so let me have it.” “All right, aid boy,” said Harry, supposing he wanted to make change here it is.” “Hem! hem!' said Skinflint, locking up his desk an 3 making preparations “to shoot.” “Stop, old feilow,” said Harry. “Where’s my money.” “Your money! you’ve got it!”. “Got it? what do you mean?” “55 r by I was to take ‘off the discount, wasn’t I and the thousand!” “Yes; I want my money!” . .. .. , “5Vbv, mv dear fellow, von’ve got it.

She will be doubtless pleased at her agency in your recovery.” “Of what State is she a native!” asked Arthur Wiliet, eagerly. “I married ber in the town of B., where she was born.” At this moment Mrs. Haywood entered the room, surprised at the long absence of her hus band Arthur Willet gazed at her with a look of the wildest surprise, murmuring; “It cannot be—it cannot he. 1 am delirious to think so.” Mrs. Haywood, with little less astonishment stood motionless as a statue. “55'hat painful mystery is this?” cried Dr. Haywood, excitedly, adderesaing his wife who then became conscious of the singularity of ber conduct. “Ob, no mystery,” she replied, sighing deeply, “only this strangei is the image of my lost brother Arthur.” And Mrs. Haywood, overcome with emotion, turned to leave the room. “Stay one moment,” pleaded the stranger, drawing a small mourning ring from his finger, and, holding it up, asked if she recognized that relic? . “It is my father's grey hair, and yon are”— “His sen, Arthur Willet, and your brother.” Mary Willet Haywood foil upon the mendicant’* boy—a fair business transaction. Too Good tc be lo.t, hand it around.—Several days ago a well dressed scamp got upon the cars at Chattanooga, and by some means escaped the vigilance of the conductor until he reached Hunts ville. Here conductors changed and Mr. Fowler took charge of the train, and in making the first round to collect tickets, between Madison and Huntsville, he found the Joorofone of the private saloons fastened. The brakeman assured him that there was a man in the saloon, and without suspecting foul play he told the brakeman to point out the man to him when he caiue out, so that he might collect his ticket. Fowler had no sooner made his round than out came the gentleman, thinking all was safe. When he took his seat in the ear, he removed his hat from his bead, and put it under bis seat Y.'hen called on for his ticket he remarked that, while in the saloon ha poked liis head out of the window to breathe fresh air, and was so unfortunate as to loose bis hat, with bis ticket in the band, and he could not think of paying twice. Tbeconductor told him ha regretted the circumstance veryfmuch, but, as it was one for which the railroad was not to blame, he would be compelled to make him pay a second time—or else make him leave the train at Madison station. The scamp was indignant —Fowler remonstrated in his usual polite, bnt firm way, until the station was reached, when he informed him that he was at the end of his rope, and leave the cars he must- Finding there was no backing dowD, he reached under bis seat, drew out his hut and started to leave the cars, when Fowler told him he would have to exercise hi* duty as conductor again—and the fact of his hav ing lost his own, did not entitle him to take a fel low traveler’s hat—for that the company would be responsible. Whereupon he took charge of the hat. and ehoved the gentleman off the cars.—Hunts ville Democrat. A Frenchman built a four stor. his Dutch neighbor’s two story house.
