Politeness as a Lover—Politeness as
a Husband—Affability as an Affl

known what I do now—speaking to her own
heart—I don’t think I would hare married him !
Iam—to his own heart—dog-gone t orry that I
ever married. I would hare been hi ppier as a
single man !
The sharp word, the quick retort, the indiffer

spirit, the impolite speech, the unkind reflection

Reader, did any such thoughta ever enter your
mind ? If they ever did think about the matter
seriously. Married life is holy and every way
desirable. It is the only true and real happi
ness of earth. ...
What on earth is more to ba desired than a
kind and loving husband? What better para
dise can a man ask while in the flesh, than a
cheerful, loving and gentle wife? Are all happy
in their conjugal relationship? Alas! too few
for the great number.
Politeness begets esteem, esteem begets ad
miration ; admiration begets love; love begets
marriage, and marriage should develop in the
greatest degree all those qualities of head and
heart which should make married life all that
is desirable and worth living for. A happy
household ! It is heaven brought down to earih V
Affability in woman is the mighty lever in her
nature with which she can lift man out of
his selfishness and cold calculations, and un
cover the deep fountains of his feelings, and let
him pour out upon her the mildness and
strength of a man's love. “ Affability,” says
Elyot, “is of a wonderful efficiency or power in
procuring or producing love.” It is woman’s
peculiar and irresistible charm, and reaches a
man’s heart when nothing else can.
Politeness in man is a Christian quality, and
should rank next to love itself; in fact, it is
the twin brother of love, and is ever present
with him. It is the first step a man takes when
he would impress a woman favorably towards
himself. It is that consideration in thought,
action and deeds that first wins a woman’s
esteem, then her admiration, then her love.
A woman expects and has the right to demand
that tender and considerate attention from her
husband which he bestowed upon her while a
lover. She surrendered her person and indi
vidual happiness into the hands of the man who
won her love by his politeness and attentions.
For a husbend to withhold or refuse that polite
ness to a wife which is her due, is to openly
proclaim to her that his attentions as a lover
were premeditated, studied and forced dissimu
lation ; that he acted the dissembler that he
might win, and regarded not her opinions or
estimations of him as worthy his thoughts after
he had won.
That he moved in one character that he might
deceive, and when he won threw off the mask
which concealed the true features of his real
character. To expect to develop, draw out and
retain a woman’s pure, deep and confiding love
when so deceived, is to expect that a tiger will
change his nature, or that the pure in mind
would love and consort with the vicious.
To retain, develop, increase and strengthen
the love of a wife, politeness and tender atten
tions are as necessary to her emotional and sen
sitive nature, as are the rains and dews of heav
en to the plants. A wife should not only feel
she has a husband in name, but one in that true
reality, which makes her home a paradise, and
her heart a living fountain of love. The hus
band should feel there was no such happy spot
to him as home, and say of his wife
“ She is mine own ;
And I as rich in having such a jewel,
As twenty seas, if all their sands were pearl,
The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold,”
What we have said of husbands, applies with
equal force to wives. A woman can dissimulate
as easily as a man ; and can wear two characters
with like ease, and act them out to perfection.
That sweetness of temper and modesty of de
portment which attracts a man to a woman as the
magnet does the steel, must ever be a part of
woman, or the love she wins by her manners
will fly from her as the timid hare before the
bark of the pursuing dog. “Love is of man
but a part; it is woman's whole existence. ”
When a man finds himself deceived, it par
takes not so much of anger or disappointment,
as disgust, which will ripen into contempt if the
least provoked. The sweet smile in the parlor,
or the modest deportment in society, has to man,
a definite and specific charm and value. His
mind is calculating, his feelings rational, and
though not devoid of sentiment, or deep emo
tions, are nevertheless the subjective part of his
nature.
“I have been deceived in her,” seals a wife’s
fate. The deep and strong currents of a hus
band’s love will find other channels, or make
them wherein he can find relief for his disap
pointment. If the wife acts not the affiance,
withholds her smiles, repulses tender advances,
refuses the endearing caress, and shows an aver
sion to the loving kiss, she cannot ask or expect
the esteem or love of a husband.
Of all the passions, love is the strongest, and
at the same time the weakest. It is the strong
est, for when brought into life or activity, it
fears no obstacles. The weakest, because it is
so refined and delicate, a word, a slight will
blast, or kill it. Of all passions, it needs the
tenderest attention, and most constant care. It
will not grow without attention, and soon dies
of neglect, no matter how vigorous it may ap
pear while growing.
Confidence is the top-not of love; a confi
dence that permeates through all the ramifica
tions of married life; a confidence that will
trust, lean upon, be advised ; a confidence that
hides nothing, keeps nothing back. Doubt is
the dry-rot of love ; the canker-worm that des
troys ; the mistletoe which absorbs but to kill,
and gives nothing in return.
A woman’s strength is in her smiles, her con
fidence and affability ; and the man who cannot
be won by them, has a heart not worth moving.
Love, as Colton says : “In a woman it is a shoot,
not a seed, and flourishes most vigorously only
when ingrafted on the love which is rooted in
the breast of another. ”
In a word, love should be cultivated more
after marriage than before. It should be a study
to assimilate and grow alike, and thus avoid dis
appointments, contentions and inharmony.
Lamb never said a truer thing than —
“ Mm, while he loves, is not quite depraved,
And woman's triumph, is a lover saved.”
Despondency.
The most perilous hour of a person’s life is
when he is tempted to despond. The man who
loses bis oourage loses all; there is no more
hope of him than of a dead man; but it matters
not how poor he may be, how much pushed by
circumstances, how much deserted by friends,
how much lost to the world; if he only keeps
his courage, holds up his head, works on with
his hands and with unconquerable will deter
mines to be and to do what becomes a man, all
will be well. It is nothing outside of him that
but what is within, that makes or un-
A Military Romance.
Orange county has just had a wedding with
enough romance about it for a novel. In 1862
the bridegroom, then a young man, though un
der an engagement to the lady whom he expect
ed to marry enlisted in the Union army. His
sweetheart made no effort to dissuade him from
what he thought his duty, and with breaking
heart she bade him adieu, and quietly buried
herself in her home with her widowed mother,
the only living member of the family beside her
self. For a while all went well, and loving let
ters from his sweetheart cheered the gallant sol
dier and tender words of hope from him made
life endurable to her. After the battle of Chan-
cellorsville his lettere suddenly ceased. Letter
after letter was written to him and his oomrades
but all that could be learned was, that after the
terrible battle he was missing. Whether he had
been killed or taken prisoner no one could tell,
and his fate remained a mystery. His stricken
sweetheart never entirely abandoned hope, and
lived on “tender and true.” Hoping against
hope forhis return. After many patient years
her troth has been rewarded, and she is now a
happy bride. His narrative is that sometime
during the fight he was taken prisoner, and soon
after he was sent to a Southern prison, where he
was kept about a year, suffering untold torture.
He finally escaped and reached the seaboard,
where he conceived the idea of personating an
English sailor and getting to England on a
blockade runner. After that all is blank. He
learned afterwards that he had been taken ill,
and soon after was insane. On his arrival in Eng
land he was taken to the insane asylum by the
Captain of the blockade runner, where he re
mained until a year ago, when he was discharged
cured, but penniless. He succeeded in secur
ing a situation in a mercantile house, where he
rapidly won the esteem of the principles, to
whom he told his story. A leave of absence
was granted him, he came to Middletown and
found his old sweetheart, now a mature lady of
thirty-two, still faithful to his memory. They
were quietly married, and returned to England,
where he proposes to remain for a term of years.
During his long absence his only surviving rel
atives, a brother and uncle, ha i died and he had
no ties to keep him here, save the love of coun
try, which will eventually bring him and his
faithful wife back to our shores.— Albany Argus.
Curious Derivations.
The word “pamphlet” is derived from the
name of a Greek authoress, Pamphylia, who
compiled a history of the world into thirty-fi
little books.
“Punch and Judy” is a contraction from Pon
tius and Judas. It is a relic of an old “miracle
play,” in which the*actors were Pontius Pilate
and Judas Iscariot.
“Bigot” is from Visigother. in which the fierce
and intolerant Arianism of th i Yisigoth conquer
or of Spain has been handed down to infamy.
“Humbug” is from Hamburg; “a piece of
Hamburg news” was in Germany a proverbial ex
pression for false political rnmors.
“Gauze” derives its name from Gaza, where it
was first made.
“Tabby cat” is all unconscious that her name
is derived from Atab, a famous street in Bagdad,
inhabited by the manufacturers of silken stuffs
called Atibi, taffety; the wavy markings of the
watered silks resembling pussy’s coat.
“Old Scratch” is the demon Skratti; who still
survives in the superstitions of Northern Eu
rope.
“Old Nick” is none other than Nikr, the dan
gerous water demon of Scandinavian legend.
“Religion is from the Latin religere, to bind
together; a derivation which conveys a world of
historical and spiritual meaning.
“So-long,,’the common Western and South
ern substitute for adieu, and which is used in
the same sense by the sailors frequenting the
ports of Glasgow and Bristol, is undoubtedly
a corruption of the Turkish “Salaam” or “God
be with you,” which latter phrase, in English,
has been corrupted to “good-bye.” The Sala
am traveled Westwards with Islamism to the
west coast of Africa, whence the negro slaves
were brought to the Southern states of Ameri
ca, and in the thick articulation of the black-
man, came changed to “So-long,” and from
them, was picked up by the sailors and lower
class of whites. Glasgow and Bristol, in Scot
land and England, respectively, were the chief
ports of the British slave trade, when that in
stitution was existent—a fact, which accounts
for the prevalence of the phrase in these plac
es, and adds probability to the above describ
ed derivation.
A Fearful Risk for Girls.
The pastor of a church in one of our large
cities said to me, not long ago : “I have officiat
ed at forty weddings since I came here, and in
every case, save one, I felt that the bride was
running an awful risk. Young men of bad hab
its and fast tendencies never marry girls of their
own sort, but demand a wife above suspicion.
So, pure, sweet women, kept from the touch of
evil through the years ot their girlhood, give
themselves, with all their costly dower of wo
manhood, into the keeping of men who, in base
associations, have learned to under-value all
that belongs to them, and then find no repen
tance in the sad after years. There is but one
way out of this that I can see, and that is for
you—the young women of the country—to re
quire in associations and marriage, purity for
purity, sobriety for sobriety, and honor for
honor. There is no reason why the young men
of this Christian land should not be j ust as vir
tuous as its women, and if the los3 of society
and love be the price they are forced to pay for
vice, they will not pay it I admit with sadness
that not all our young women are capable of
this high standard for themselves or others, but
I believe there are enough earnest, thoughtful
girls in the society of our country to work won
ders if faithfully aroused. Dear girls will you
help us, in the name of Christ? Will you, first
of all, be true to yourselves and God; so pure
in your inner and outer life that you shall have
a right to ask that the young man with whom
you marry shall be the same ? The awful gulf
of dishonor is close beside your feet, and in it,
fathers, brothers, lovers, and sons are going
down. Will you help us in our great work? ”
A Simple Remedy for Cinders in the
Rye.
Persons traveling by railway, are subject to
continued annoyance from the flying cinders.
On getting into the eyes they are not only pain
ful for the moment, but are often the cause of
long suffering, that ends in a total loss of sight.
A very simple and effective cure is within the
reach of every one, and would prevent much
suffering and expense, were it generally known.
It is simply one or two grains of flaxseed. These
may be placed in the eye without injury or pain
to that delicate organ, and shortly they begin to
swell and dissolve a glutinous substance that
covers the ball of the eye, enveloping any foreign
substance that may be in it The irritation or
cutting of the membrane is thus prevented, and
the annoyance may soon be washed out. A
dozen of these grains stowed away in the vest
pocket may prove, in an emergency, worth their
number in gold.

speakers of his day that they had a river of
words with only a spoonful of thought
Stealing $25,000 Worth of Wedding
.. Presents.
The dressing-room of the Countess of Aber
deen, who was spending her honeymoon at Hal
stead Place, near Seven-Oaks, inEngland, was
entered the other day, and jewelry stolen to the
value of $25,000. chiefly wedding presents.
About 5 o’clock in the evening Lady Aberdeen’s
maid went to the dressing-room, and found the
door locked. Hearing some one inside, she
believed it was Lady Aberdeen, and went away.
About an hour later she again went up Btairs,
and first went into another room, which she
found in a state of great disorder, drawers being
opened and their contents scattered about the
floor. She then hastened to the dressing-room,
and finding the room still locked, gave an alarm
and had the dour broken open, when it was
found that the place had been completely ran
sacked. One box, containing jewelry of the val
ue of $20,000 had, however, escaped the notice
of the thieves. On examining the house it was
found that a ladder had been placed against a
balcony, and an entrance effected into a window
above into a spare room, whence the thieves had
no difficulty in gaining access to the dressing-
room.
Marrying for Money.
A late author very truthful^ says: “Gold
cannot buy happiness, and the parents who com
pel their daughters to marry for station or mon
ey commit a grievous sin against humanity and
God. And a woman who marries a churl for
his wealth will find that she has made a terrible
bargain—that all the glitterings of heartless
grandeur are phosphorescent glitterings of heart-
wretchedness; that her life will be one of gilded
misery, and her old age will be like a crag on
the bleak side of a desert mountain, where cold
moonbeams sometimes glitter, but no birds sing;
where wild storms howl and hoars9 thunders
roar, and through the sweeping storms shall be
heard the stern voice of the great God, saying,
‘Your riches are corrupted, your garments are
moth-eaten, your gold and silver are cankered,
and the rust of them shall be a witness against
you, and eat your flesh as if it were fire.’ ’’

PLANTATIONS.
ELEGANT HOMES IN FLORIDA.
One of these a beautiful place known ;.s
ELTINGOWAN,
is in Samter county, Florida, two miles east of its county
site, Leesburg. It is situated on a kind of peninsula,
between Lakes Harris and Griffin, has 190 acres of land,
a modern cottage residence of five rooms, with hall and
handsome verandahs, fronting Lake Griffin, and com
manding a lovely view of the lake and ol several hundred
orange trees, many in fnll bearing, also magnolias and
other forest trees. In the rear, in full view of the resi
dence, and situated on the regular public highway, is a
grove of about 2,000 orange and lemon trees, mostly eight
years old, many hanging full of rich fruit, and all soon to
be in bearing. They are choice seedlings, healthy and
luxuriant.
Near the house are also two hundred banana trees,
many bearing. No description can convey an idea of the
picturesque beauty of Ellangowan—its site, an elevated
plateau, overlooking that sheet of silver—lovely Lake
Griffin—with its islands and jutting headlands, and its
gleaming, changeful waters. Not alone does this add
immeasurably to the beauty of the place, but this exten
sive body of warm water (12 miles in length) gives com
plete protection to the fruit groves, so much so that
daring last winter—the coldest ever known here—there
was not the slightest damage done by the cold to any
tree or plant.
The price of this place is $15,000. Terms easy.
SECOND PLANTATION.
Ilardly less desirable is a farm in the Ft. Dade Settle
ment, Hernando county, Florido, containing 210 acres of
finest hammock land, equally adapted for the culture of
cotton, corn, sngar-cane, or fruits, It lias an excellent
plain country dwelling house of four rooms, a store house
—a good stand for merchandizing—and all necessary out
buildings. It has fifty acres of cleared land in high culti
vation, 25 orange trees bearing and nearly ready to bear,
and six hundred seedling trees, 3 years old. Good many
oranges sold from the farm this year. This place is pecu
liarly adapted to the cultnre of oranges and the raising of
stock. It is surrounded by a number of small grassy
prairies that are the finest range for horses, cattle and
hogs in Florida. Excellent society, two chnrches, and a
large Seminary (Ft. Dade) and stores, mills, etc. The
price of this place is $2,500.
SEASIDE HOME.
Beautifully and healthfully situated on St. Joseph’s Bay,
near the month of Anclote River, Hernando, Florida, is
the third farm, of 40 acres of pine land, 20 being cleared:
good, new three-roomed frame dwelling, kitchen and crib;
250 orange trees—fifteen of which are bearing, one hun
dred nearly ready to bear; dates and other tropical fruits
a good harbor with a number of vessels always to be seen
engaged in fishing, sponging, etc.', to which surplus fruits
ana vegetables can be sold at good prices; a good neigh
borhood, with churches convenient. This place is per
fectly healthy, and the bleakness is effectually cut off by
the Anclote Keys—five miles from shore. Price $1,500.
Persons wishing to purchase either of these three de
sirable farms, will please apply in person or by letter to

Qcihinz and arsenic form the basis of many of the
Ague remedies in the market, and are the last resort of
physicians and people who know no better medicine to
employ for this distressing complaint. The effects of
either of these drugs are destructive to the system, pro
ducing headache, intestinal disorders, vertigo, dizziness,
ringing of the ears, and depression of the constitutional
health. Ayer’s Ague Curb is a vegetable discovery, con
taining neither quinine, arsenic, nor any deleterious in
gredient, and is an infallible and rapid cure for every form
of Fever and Ague. Its effects are permanent and cer
tain, and no inj ury can result from its nse. Besides being
a positive cure for Fever and Ague in all its forms, it is
also a snperior remedy for Liver Complaints. It is an
excellent tonic and preventive, as well as a care, of all
complaints peculiar to malarious, marshy and miasmatic
districts. It acts directly on the Liver and biliary appa
ratus, thus stimulating the system to a vigorous, healthy
ondition. For sale by all dealers. 98-ly
