LITTLE ACCOUNTS.
Little accounts, you’re the plague of one’s life,
cawna es annoyance, worry and strife.
With trades people, family, servants and wife,
Are “ little accounts 1”
Ye begin at our birth with doctor and nurse,
And thro* after years ye make holes in oar purse,
Ye coiuc ** with the cradle, go out with the hearse,
Oh ! “ little accounts !”
From syntax released, a school boy so gay,
1 returned to enjoy my brief holiday,
But mixed with my classical progress there lay
My “ little accounts !’
And I found that, when launched on the ocean of
life,
In college seclusion, political strife.
And e’vcn when 1 took to myself a fair wife,
There were *’ little accounts 1”
The nuptial festivites, supper, and bail,
Plate, jewels, and equipage, footman so tall.
And presents to bride, and bridesmaid and all,
Brought “ little accounts
Seasons roll’d on ; my wife—Heaven bless her -
A leader of ton, and an elegant dresser,
Brought me “ little accounts !”—I would uot distress ;
her,
Paar ‘‘little accounts’”—
When Tom got his commission, and Jack went to
sea,
And Peter chopped logic at Oxford, d’ve see,
Whether red, blue, or hlaek, their jackets to me
Brought “little accounts!”
Their fortunes to favor, their views to advance.
The girls were presented, at Almack’s did dance;
Mamma said ‘twas justice to give them a chance,
Great " little accounts/’
At Christmas, the time for thanksgiving and joy,
Which in mirth and festivity all should employ.
Alack ! All my pleasure sustained an alloy
In my “ littie accounts!"
THE GIRL WHO’S LOOKING FOR A BE AU
A girl who lives in this small town,
She wants a husband for her —
There is no doubt of that!
For when to meeting she doth go.
Her conduct plainly goes to show
The people what she’s at.
• While promenading up the aisle.
At lh« young men she II blush and smile,
Am* show a pretty dimple ’
Then takes her seat quite far in front,
Making herself full prominent.
Though looking very simple.
Silk frock and laces she doth show.
With anxious glances round you kn w,
Not thinking of her sins !
Au l when she feels she looks quite killing -
T » tear the service she is willing
The minister begins. •
And now the meeting is dismissed
Sih* stares about, a.- if she missed
Her Pa, or brother Joe ’
W ea, if Uiv truth be truly told,
This girl, indeed, so very bold.
Is looking fol a beau 1
A GIPSY STORY.
In the aiitmun of 1808, there lived one Far
mer Harris at the Home Farm in Allcnieuf, in
Wiltshire, England, who u as a hard man. al
though just enough in his dealings, and laid a
heavy hand upon all vagrants and such like,
not making enough allowance, may be, for
temptations to which he was not himself ex
posed. There had been very many depreda
tions committed in the parish by wandering
gipsies summer after summer, and he hated the
whole tribe of them, the more beeaiis<> h i could
seldom catch them in the act, so us to send
them to jail, the live stuck which they stole be
ing in the pot in a few minutes, so as to be
quite unrecognisable, even if it were not eaten;
and articles of value, it was sai<l, being buried
in the ground at once—although, indeed, it is
doubtful whether they appropriated any thing
of that sort ftt all. On this particular year
there was a grand band of these wanderers
camped in Alleuleaf; it consisted of no less
than fourteen persona, besides children- eight
men and six women. One of these, a girl of
sixteen or so, whom they called Miriam, was
as beautiful as any Christian might be; and
she was the daughter of a certain Tilgah, the
brother of the chief of the tribe, and the great
est poacher of the whole lot. People said Mi
riam must have been a stolen child, her face
being without the gipsy scowl, and her voice
so soft and different from that of her country
women; but she was as dark, and even dark
er, than they ; and as for her manner, she was
sort of princess amongst them, and they be
haved to her with respect and tenderness; and
gentle treatment makes gentle sulks, as we all
know.
Farmer Harris' head man at this time was
one Matthew Pudduck, as handsome a lad of
tive-and-twenty or so as could be seen in tbaae
parts, but headstrong and over-hold, like his
master himself. He was the best wrestler and
deftest cudgel player in the whole country-side,
but did not make much account of the lasses,
although a goodish many, near and far, were
setting caps at him. Those who love late love
longest, as the saying is; and although Mat had
not the means of proving that, poor fellow, yet
when he did fall in love it was downright, ter
rible earnest —only, instead of choosing out of
the Alleuleaf girls, who should he set his wilful
heart upon but this outlandish heathen. Miriam,
the gipsy girl! He saw her first when she
came to the Horae Fann to tell some foolish
hussies their fortunes; and it seemed to him,
as ho himself confessed, that she was more
beautiful than it was woman's lot to be, and
even as though she belonged to another world
—which, indeed, it is like enough that she did;
and, may be, bewitched him, as such folks can
do, with the evil eye. Farmer Harris, when
ho found out what was happening in his back
yard, would have had her whipped out of the
place, had it not been for Matthew, who riain
ed up, and swore no man on earth should lay
a hand upon her, though it was the squire him
self.
I'he girl was grateful to him belike for this
good turn, and from that hour a kindness grew
U P, on her side, for him. But any’ way, soon
niter wards they began to keep company, and
walk together, when they could get the chance,
just as though they had been plighted lovers,
with their bann read out for the third time in
Allenleafchnrch—a thing which of course, could
never possibly come to pass. Matthew’s friends
were amazed and stained enough ; but, won
derful to say, the gipsies themselves were ready
to tear the girl to pieces with rage. It seems
Lriis wondering people have strange, proud
laws of their own, and never permit any Chris
tian to intermarry in their own tribe; and it
J’ said that many awful scenes took place be
tween Miriam and the rest about the matter—
State fcr l-lrcss.
Tilgah an<l the rest threatening to do awful
tilings with her and she answering them as
queenly and scornfully as could be; but when
they threatened Matthew she grew quiet, and
promised that she would make her lover change
ids faith, and become a gipsy himself; with
which, it seems, they would have been well
contented. Then, again, poor Mat would try
to persuade the girl to turn Christian, and
to leave her own people for good and all; but
this, for nil her love for him, she positively re
fused to do, for she was a staunch, fine-heart
ed lassie—or would have been, that is, had she
not chanced to be a gipsy.
Whether it was, however, that at last she
consented to this, and the tribe got wind of it,
or whether, as is too likely, despairing of their
ever being wedded, the poor girl went wrong
with Matthew, certain it is that after awhile
Miriam was missing. It was a woful sight then
to seethe young man in his agony, wandering,
wandering, all day long, as though he were a
gipsy himself; or watching and listening at 1
the old trysting places for the footfall that he
was never to hear again. Even Farmer Har-,
ria, proud man that lie was, was so moved by
it as to go down with Puddock into their camp,
to see what h.-wl become of the woman, or |
whether any offers might get her back again;
and there they found tlie eight men and the
five women, but not one single word would
either of these speak ; only when poor Mat ac
tually went down upon his knees to Tilgah, to
entreat him for his daughter, that he might
marry her, a savage sort of glitter came into
the men’s eyes, and took the place of that re
lentless malice with which they had fixed their
looks upon him before. Harris was even over
bold. as has been said; but he declared after- ,
wards that he did not think his very life, anil ’
far less Puddock's, was safe with them that
day Matthew, however, never gave a thought
to this, for he was thinking of Miriam
After they had thus treated him, and espe- |
daily after that look of triumph in their eyes, i
he began to have it firm in his mind that they
had murdered the girl—which there is little I
<lonbt was indeed the case, for no mere threat (
or re-traint could have ever kept such as she
was from her desire; and this begat in him a '
most inextinguishable, rage and hatred against
the gipsies; his whole employment seemed to
be now the setting snares for them, and get- i
ting them punished. Farmer Harris had been !
opposed to them enough before; but hence-!
forward his head man agged him on to acts of |
still greater severity. N’o less than three of j
the men and two of the women were sent to
jail for fowl-stealing, and one of the men was 1
publicly whipped. At last there was a sheep
missing from a told in the neighboring parish,
and I‘uddock himself showed the constable ,
whereabouts the camp was hid ; und there they 1
found the entrails of the animal, and even the '
head, by which it was easily identified, cover
ed up in leaves; for, since the misfortunes
which had befallen them, the gang s ent to have
taken less precaution than before. What was
of more consequence still, Matthew Puddock
swore to have seen the chief coming from the .
fold in question upon the proceeding night with
a mainly by this evidence got the
fellow committed for trial for the theft; where
by, in course of time, (although Mat never lived
to see it. as he had promised himself) the man
got hung.
And now conies the terrible part of the tale,
idle gipsies after the capture of ther chief,
seemed to have left the parish, and nothing
was heard of them for sevnr.il weeks; only’
Matthew, who wu. half erazed ill his mind by '
this time, still travelled everywhere, night and
day, in i. >pes to comenpon them in some crime
—thinking of his murdered Miriam. One'
night, he did not come back to the Homo Farm
at all only one of his dogs came back, bloody I
about the head, and lamed. It seemed to be
known at once that some dreadful fate had hap
pened to him ; but no man surely could ever
have guessed what.
They searched tor him. and found him living
—yes living, unhappily for him, poor fellow— '
such a sight w as never seen since the days of
the blessed martvrs —tied to n tree, and Hayed
alive. lli» friends killed some shee[>, and put |
him into their warm skins, and so kept him I
for two days. Nor was lie in such great pain '
as may be supposed, (the pulling off the flesh
at his finger nails was the worst, lie said.) but
made the depositions regular before his death. ;
The fury of the country-side was beyond meas
ure, and by that same night had all four of the
wretches in safe keeping. One of them died, I
indeed, before his trial, having been well nigh ,
torn to pieces by the people, frantic not only
at the abominable cruelty and horror of the I
thing, but because poor Mat was well known
and liked amongst all. In the early spring of ;
the next year, the other three wretches—they ,
! confessed their guilt, and how they had trav- !
1 elled back many a days journey without their i
women on purpose to perform this hellish act
I —were hung in the same place, amidst a mul
titude such as is not credible to hear of. and
1 on the very tree whereto they had tied their
I victim.
ANECDOTE OF TALLEYRAND.
This illustrious diplomatist one day found
I himself between .Madame de Stivl and Mad
ame Rccamier. both intimate friends, both cel- '
ebroted.
“You say charming tilings to us both, but
which do you prefer I’’ said Madame de Stiel,
; suddenly.
‘ Madame, snch a question is a veritable am
bush. Take care, the penal code—”
Prince, no subterfuge here? Which do you
• prefer—iny friend or myself? Come, sjieak—is
it the brunette or the blonde?"
It will be her who will deign to honor me
i with a look.”
“What! still diplomatic! Well, I will put the
question in another form. Suppose, whilesail
-1 ing on the Seine, this evening, the boat should
j upset, and we should be in danger of drown
ing. w hich one would you help !"
"Both at once, or the one who was in the
i greatest danger.”
I “But, monseigoenr, be frank for once in your
I life! Suppose the peril be equally imminent?”
"Well, I would give my right hand to you,
■ Baroness, and the left to Madame Recainier.”
“But it you could save only one—vne only—
do yon understand I
"Oh, rnadame, you who know so many things,
! I suppose you can swim,” replied Talleyrand’
-
i Mr. Brandytoddy’s three reasons for
i not drinking are very characteristic of that
gentleman.
| “ Take something to drink ?" said his friend
I to him one day.
| “ No, thank yon,” replied Mr. B.
“No! why not!” inquired his friend in great
I amazement.
"In the first place," returned Mr. Brandy
toddy, “I am secretary of a temperance society
' that meets to-day, and I must preserve my tem
’ pcrance character, lu the second place, this is
j the anniversary of my father's death, and out
I of respect to him I have promised never to
i drink on this day. 'And hi the third place, I
I have just taken something.

END OF A LAWSUIT.
An upper and a lower mill
Fell out about their water ;
To war they went that is, to law—
Resolved to give no quarter.
A lawyer was by each engaged,
And hotly they contended;
When fees grew slack, the war they waged,
The J udge were butter ended.
The heavy cost reeurrings still
Were settled without bother—
One lawyer took the upper mill,
The lower mill the oilier.

“ No itain't, it's because you quarrel so much

ON SIGHT AND ON DEMAND.
One of the “ Porter's” staff is responsible for
this anecdote:
Judge a well known, highly respected
Knickerbocker, on the shady side of fifty, a
widower with five chibheii—full ot fun anl
frolic, always ready for ujok.- to give or take,
was bantered the other evening, by a Miss of
file and twenty, for not taking another w ife;
lie w as hale and hearty and deserved a matri
moniiil messmate. The Judge acknowledged
that fact, admitted that be was convicted by
the eloquence of bis fair frieud, that h? i!
been thus far very remiss, and expressed eon
trition for the fault confessed, ending with of
sering himself to the lady, telling her she could
not certainly reject him after pointing out t"
him his heinous offence.
The lady replid that she would be happy to
take the situation so uniquely adveriiseil. an 1
become bone of his bone, flesh of his flesh, but
there was one, to her, serious obstacle.
“Well," said the Judge, “name it. My
profession is to surmount such impediments.’’ '
“All! Judge, this is beyond your power. I
have vowed, if I ever marry a widow er, he must
have ten children.”
“ Ten children ! Oh ! that's nothing,” said '
the Judge, “ I’ll give yon five now, and mv
notes on demand in installments lor the bal
ance.”
AUNT LIZZIE S COURTSHIP.
Why you see, when my man came a courtin
me 1 hadn't the least thought of what he was I
after—not 1. Jobie came to our house one
night after dark, and rapped at the door. I
opened it, and sure enough there was Jobie.
“ Come in.” sez I; " take a cheer.”
“No, no, Lizzie, 1 ' said tn-, “1 have come
on an arrant, and I always do my arrauts
fust.”
“ But you had better come in an’ take a cheer,
i Mr. W
"No, I can’t. The fact is, Lizzie, I’ve come
on this ’ere courtin’ business. My wife's been
dead these three weeks, everything's been
going to rack and ruin right along. Now. Liz
zie, es you're a mind tn have me, and take keer
of my children, and my things, tell me. and
I’ll come in an' take a cheer; if not I'll get
some oue else tu.”
Why, I was skeered. and aed: “If you
come on this courtin' business, come in ; 1 must
think on it a little.”
—“No, I can't till I know. That’s iny arrant,
and I can’t sit down till my arrant is done.”
“ I should like to think on it a day or two.’’
“ Now, yon needn't Lizzie.”
“ Well, Jobie, it’ I must I must—so here’s
' tu ye then.”
So Mr. W came in. Then he went
after the squire, an’ he married us right off an’
. I went home w ith Jobie that very night. I
tell you what it is—these long courtins don’t
amount to nothing at all. Just as well to do it
I in a hurry.
A PUZZLED PIG.
One of our Western farmers being very much
| annoyed last summer by his best sow break
ing into bis cornfield, search was instituted in
vain for a hole in the rail fence. Failing totind
i any, an attempt was next made to drive out
■ the animal by the same way she entered, but
lof course without success. The owner then re
solved to watch her proceedings, and posting
himself at night in a fence-corner, he saw her
enter at one end of a hollow log, outside the
field, and emerge at the other end within the
enclosure. “ I have you now old lady,” ex
claimed he. Accordingly ho proceeded, after
turning her out onco more, so to place the log
■ (it being very crooked) that both ends opened
; on the outside of the fence. The next day the
j anima! was observed to enter at her accustomed
place, and shortly emerge again.
i “ Her astonishment, ’’ says our infonnant.
1 “at finding herself at the same place whence
: she had started, is too ludicrous to describe.—
I She looked this way and then that, grunted
her dissatisfaction, and finally returned to the
original starting place, and after a deliberate
survey- of mutters, to satisfy herself that all
was right, she entered the log. On emerging
once more on the wrong side, she evinced even
more surprise than before; and turninz about,
| retraced the log in apposite dilection. Find
. ing this effort alike in vain, after looking long
and attentively at the position of things, with
a short, angry grunt of disappointment, and
perhaps fear, she turned short around and
started off on a brisk run; nor could either
coaxing or driving ever after indnee her to via-
1 it that part of the field.”
