For example : Mrs. Wrongways and her hus-
bauii were one day sealed at breakfast, when
she commenced the following discourse—**l in
ti ud logo aud call on Mis. haughty siqt mor
■ling; 1 supposevou do uot want the horse aud
Kig for any thing, do you'?”
“1 don’t know whether I do or not.” said he
not being pleased with the word intend, “What
do you want to go to all ou Airs. Haughty for, a
proud disagreeble woman. It Colonel Haughty
was uoi my commanding officer, you should uev

••Should not! »' ell for my part, I should al

gaut woman, and the daughter of a peer; and she
never gives herself any airs to me, as she does to
the other ladies of our corps.”
••You fancy, 1 suppose she like* vou, and
ihiitks you less vulgar lli.in th? rest, llu: it is no
suehtning. The Colonel, I daresay has order
ed her to lie civil to you, because I am useful in
regim.'iital matters.”
••Ordered! ordered! Mrs. Haughty is not a
woman to be ordered by her husband, she has
loo much spirit and sense.”
•‘tseiise! she does not show her sense if she
attempts to have any likings, or ilislikitigs her
husband does not approve. 1 wish you would go

wish you would imitate.” '
••ludeed! well, l should be very sorry to imi

and going to market, dressed iu a gingham gown

••More shame for you. Aud if you would spend

“Credit ! you don’t pretend to say. sir, that I

Here Mrs. Wrongways hurst into tears and the
husband rose from 'he lalde. and rung the
hell. “John, bring the gig to the door; I a in
going to the barracks, and shall want the gig and
ho se all day.”
Now in reality, the captain did not want that
gig and horse at all, that day- lie would rathar

he was determined to v ex her l»_v preventing her

CONSISTENCY.
Iu a small towu :u Veruinut, according to tho
Boston Transcript, there iciu'ned a few weeks
since a young tuau a native of live, pi ace, who had
been abseut about IU years hxviug resided in tho
state of Georgia where he had accumulated con
siderable property, about leu thousaud dollars of
which were invested in slaves. Shortly after his
return he was seized with a fever, and ou Au
gust 1st died without family, and of course his
property went to his brothers aud sisters, three
of whom were members of tho abolition society.
When called upon to kuowwhai they intended
to do with the slaves, it being animated that they
might now show their consistency, the president
of the society replied, -that ihe laws of the state
were so oppressive to free Macks, hat it would
be a merry to sell them to some kind master,
who iu euuforuiiiy with the request of his decea

pelled to give si <i.my of iheir property aud

the Goverumeut. Every mail front Mexico ex
poses toeir situation with sumo uew imposition
iu the form of taxes aud force loa s, of which
the greater pari of the merchants here have paid
the latter, aud the General *s this moment eu-

to be but little interested lor the troops here, aud
unless lands soon make their appearance from
some quarter, serious cou-equcnccs are antici
pated in a sacqueo and many of us be among
the missing, null the loss of properly. Protec

Bravo was to leave Mexico ou the 1st lost, tor

The two plenipotentiaries, &c. are still kept in

the streets under the rays of a scorching run.
Their situations are by uo means comfortable,
