Tanisb you, Edward ? What do you talk
, fa!" returned the wife, a sweet little no-
full of beauty and grace.
Von know I like them very much,” added
, petulant husband.
-But they tasto too strongly of the money.”
-Cotne, come. Maria, no more of poorRich-
jiMiws. I am heartily sick of them.”
-You would not have me pay sixty cents a
j for strawberries, would you ?”
-Why uot 1”
-It is’ too much.”
-So, it isn’t” V
•Von cannot afford it.”
-•Yes, I can. Isn’t my salary fifteen hun-
ji dollars a year?”
-! do not think strawberries at sixty cents a
i ire very profitable,” replied the pretty
with a pleasant smile.
He brute! Edward Lester did not deserve
i» beautiful, sweet-tempered wife ns Ma-
What business had he to fret at, and scold
i a lovely piece of womankind as she was 7
ns wicked, and I can hardly keep my
per while I record this wicked conduct.
a Edward Lester, in spite of bis petulant
;aer, was really’ an excellent fellow, and
J the pretty little woman with all his soul,
:gh it is true lie had a very singular way of
ting it.—He deserved a thrashing for liis
bywords, yet as be eventually learn’t bet-
riii not worth while loo dwell to long upon
i* ink Bide of bis character.
Hi was a very smart salesman, and was ein
icd in a large establishment in the city, at
aliry of fifteen hundred dollars. For the
at year after bis marriage he had hoarded,
B Airing to have tho comforts of home in all
Mr purity, the young couple had decided to
pto housekeeping.
Edward would have hired a large house nta
:: of four hundred dollars a year, if his wife
sd not persisted that such a dwelling would
m her life out. He then left the matter en-
-riy to her, and she found a nico little cot-
ct seven miles from the city, at a rent of one
trired and fifty. The husband liked it very
HI, and Maria furnished it in a very plain hut
at style.
They were at home now, and for a time the
why of the thing kept Edward in excellent
-*r; but ho was a veckless fellow, and had
»i idea whatever of the value of money. He
twaya spent all bis snllary, and sometimes a
’Ale more.
Edward was out of humor because he had no
miberries, and when liesat down to the ta-
tbe tea was too weak, the bread tasted of
wnius, and the butter was too strong. He
ntltd and growled, first at Maria and then
t:Erdget, till she was almost discouraged,
ktsbe did not yield to the impulse of the mo-
soi, and get out of temper. Slic kept sunl
it, however cutting and severe came the criti-
-Q» of her husband.
After tea he w as a little mortified, for there
-aed nothing more to grumble at, and even
descended to smile.
"Edward, I want fifty dollars to-morrow,”
Maria.
Tliiswasrathcrarcmarkable request for the
-dal little woman to make, for she was very
things. We must have something to eat, and
while my salary is two thousand dollars a year,
I mean to live well.”
“Great trees from little acorns grow,” added
the wife.
^ “Let us stop the bung hole first,” continued
Edward, desperately. “Would you believe
me, my dear, that I have given you six hundred
dollars a year for the last two years ?”
“What is six hundred dollars a year for a
lady ?" You were reading the other day that
a great many ladies in New York spent two
thousand dollars a year for dress alone. You
certainly cannot complain of six hundred.
“0 no; by no means. I don’t mean to com
plain ; replied Edward.
“I'knew you did’nt. AVhatever I spend goes
for a good cause.
“I suppose so; hut I don't care anything
about it only that I am getting a little short.
There is Dr. Smith’s bill of sixty dollars; I don’t
see how I am to pay it.”
“Let it rest, then. lie will never ask vou
for it.”
“Blit I don’t like that way of doing things.
I don’t want to get in debt. I will go and see
him.”
And ho did go and see him. The doctor was
a ricli mau, and offered to take Edward’s note
payable any time he pleased, which offer the
latter eagerly accepted, promising to take it up
in six months.
No change for the better appeared in the af
fairs of the young couple. Maria kept asking
for money, and she was so pretty, so sweetten
pered, and sogentle, that Edward could never
refuse. If he demurred, she could coax it out
of him.
At the end of the six mouths the doctor’s note
was due, and Edward could not pay it. He
had borrowed money till be was ashamed to so
any more. But be had a nice sense of honor,
and instead of letting liis creditor whistle for
his pay, he went to see him to procure further
extension.
“Doctor I am bard up,” said be.
“Sorry to hear it.”
“My family is getting to be expensive.”
“Be prudent, then.”
“I can’t, my wife
Ho checked himself. He was impulsive, and
did not mean to say anything about Maria.
What of her ? Is she extravagant ?”
Well, yes."
Put tho bits in her mouth, then,” laughed
the doctor.
‘Don’t like to do that.”
‘Musn't let her ruin you.”
I hope she will uot.”
Bo firm, Lester. There is only one way to
deal with an extravagant woman ; shut down
upon her before she ruins you.
I haven’t the courage to deDy her.”
1 am sorry for you: what can I do for
you 7” asked tho doctor, who seemed to be in
tho best of humor.
That little note of mine ”
What note 7”
Why tho one I owe.”
But you paid that."
[“lent in regard to her private expenses.
I "Certainly, Maria,” replied Edward,
1 T<you are going to buy a new silk.
"I am.”
He handed her tho money, and hoped she

***1 for he could afford it.
“7 atn going to spend as much money as J
; *he replied.
"Tint is right, Maria, do,” added the reek
's husband.
And Edward soon had reason to repent this
• dee, for Maria now seemed to spend all her
Ytfe time in asking him for money. He was
reckless, too magnanimous to deny her, or
•■ '^gest that she was exceeding the bounds
:rf 4‘on.
was merciless in iter drafts upon him,
-J to supply her demnnds. for he find not the
■life to refuse her modest requests, be was
To curtail his own private expenses,
t several occasions, he had been obliged to
Come, doctor, you are quizzing me.”
“Pon my soul, I am not. Didn't you pay
it a few days after you gave the note!”
“No, surely not.” replied Edward, confoun
ded by the statement.
“But I am sure you did. Here,” continued
the doctor, pulling an account hook from his
pocket, “here is where I entered the case. You
have got Ibe note.”
“Not I.”
“Look over your papers and you will find
it. I will go home with you.”
They repaired to the cottage, and Edward
all the time protesting that he had no^paid the
money, ransacking his papers for the note.
“There it is,” exclaimed the doctor, point
ing to a paper.
To Edward’s astonishment, it was tho note,
with the signature torn off. He was utterly
confounded at the discovery. He had no re
collection of having paid it; and Maria declar
ed she had not seen him pay it.
He was mystified, but satisfied with the re
sult, though he could hardly believe it. If a*ny
one had paid it. it must have been his guardi
an angel, and he hoped he would not charge
him the amount.
Three years from the time of Edward’s intro
duction to the reader bad passed away, and
his finances were in no better condition.
By a great deal of retrenchment in liis own
expenseu he had contrived to keep out of debt.
Instead of diumgnt Parker's, at the expense of
five or six dollars a week, lie made « quarter
of that sum suffice. His tailor’s bill had been
reduced one half, and all other bills in like pro-
nroportion. Better than all, he had been cur
ed of grumbling at Maria, for if he complained
of anything she was sure to ask him for a fifty
dollar bill on the same day.—In fact he was
afraid of her.
Maria, In her demands for money, bad been
even more remorseless during the last year
than ever before? nncl hnd flctUQlly token eight
hundred dollars out of two thousand. And
there was not much to show for it in the house
or upon her person. If he hinted at an expla
nation, she always. turned him off so sweetly
so adroitly, that hc’could not resist.
“Maria', wo must turn over a new leaf,” he
remarked.
“With all my heart," smiled she.
“Here I am without a dollar in tho world—
and never shall have while things goou in this
way. I have given you eight hundred dollars
this last year." ....
“Have you, indeed ? A\ hat is eight hun
dred dollars 7” clucked she.
There is Raymond’s house opposite for
sale. Itisabcautiful place,andean be bought
for four thousand dollars, by paying fifteen
hundred down. I was thinking if I had sav

that place.”

“You have done vary well, Edward."
••Yes, my dear, better, than you lmve. AYlio
would have ever thought I should ever preach
economy to you 7” laughed lie.
“What was the use for me to be prudent,
while you scattered your money like chaff.'”
asked the wife with infinite good humor.
“No use I confess.”
“I will turn over a new leaf it you will. Aon
used to find fault with me because I would not
buy strawberries at sixty cents s box.
“I haven't lately.”
“No, you haven’t.’’
“And I never will again. Now, Maria, I was
thinking if wc could save up four or five hun
dred a year for three or four years, we might
buy a house.” i#
“Very true ; and we will begin uow, it you

“What d{ you mean, Maria? Forgive me
for that.
“I will, my dear,” replied she; and going
to- her drawer she produced two bank books
and placed them in her husband’s band.
One of them indicated that she had a thous

six hundred in another bank. Of course Ed

astonished.
“Your extravagant wife lias saved sixteen

Russel's Letters from India.
Description or a Night March.—The
first bugle goes at two in tha morning, but an
hour before that there is such a bum and bustle
in the camp that sleep is very difficult. Cam
els and elephants and bullock hackeries arc
being loaded with tents and equipage; camp
fires crackle sharply round your bed, which
these hot nights, is spread under the stars
and “Ramdeen,” and “JIadree,” and “Sam,”
and “Siaion,” and rude dialogues in uncouth
tongues break your slumbers; your tent is
already struck and looming to a prodigious
size; the camels quiet now they arc loaded
and their fate is sealed, stalk away in long
files to the road close at hand, where creaking
hackeries already throw up dense clouds of
dust, invisible but palpable in the night; the
horses are saddled and caparisoned, each with
his sable attendant by bis side, and by the
light of the camp lanterns the servants are
getting ready the stirrup cup of tea for their
masters; shouts resound, “Are you ready
yet I” “ Who’s that 7” I'll meet you on the
road;” and last commences the slow, tedious,
inevitable navigation of horse and man through
tho troubles of tiiat sea of carts, camels and
elephants, goats, oxen aud human beiugs.
Men arc too cross to talk much at such un
seasonable hours. They are very severe,
however, to peccant charioteers who get in the
way. They ride on in couples or in a single
file, moiosely indifferent to Jones being “a
little seedy this morning,” or Brown’s declara
tion that “the instant—the very instant—he
can get away he’ll go home and quit the some
thing or other service,” The road is hard aud
full of holes, by the side are margins of deep
dust, but as the road is white at night you
know where you are riding.
Presently there is a sound of music heard in
the distance behind you. It is three o’clock,
aud the column has moved off inspirited by
the strains of a truly British band. Another
hour along the white line of road, bounded on
both sides by level plains, even with the clum
py islands of forest trees ; a mosque by a tank;
a deserted village. Another hour is passed,
and the stars, which have been twinkling very
gloriously, begin to pale their fires at last, as
the auii sends us a mellow tone of color to
herald his advent into the bright blue sky, and
gives a note to warn us he is coming. Tho
jackals and wolves, with short frightened barks,
dash across the road to their covers; owls and
bats, big and little, glide quickly homewards,
and the treo partridge and the minor (a kind
of starling) and the green parrot wake up, and
prepare to make a day of it.
.More mosques and Hindoo temples, tauks,
villages of mud, where the scanty population
aie lying out on their bedsteads asleep iu the
streets, come in sight; then a group of men
armed with tulwars and matchlocks, seated by
the road side, who rise and salaain as you ap
proach—village policemen; then that nomad
generally ceases. Before the tatty was got to
work to day the thermometer stood at 101) deg.
in my tent—the air outside was burning, blaz
ing hot—not a soul, except the natives, was to
be seen stirring in camp, and it was as much as
I could do to get from one extremity of our
ground to the other, in order to pay a visit to
day.
Disaffection of Tint Natives.—April
21.—Another day's march nearer to Rohil
cund, another day of heat and burning wind
and dust under the frial covering of the can
vas. Our march this morning was 13 miles
but the average morning’s journey is not more
than 10 miles. This may seem a small march
for war times of pressing urgency, but we must
move with our baggage and supplies; because-
so far as I can see, this is the first occasion on
which we have ever had to encounter an enemy
more formidable than our open foes—I mean
the ill-will and opposition of the mass of the
people. Formerly we had wars with princes
and armies, we had to contend against Myso
reans, Mahratts, Sikhs, or Beloochees, and
once the battle was won, opposition vanished,
the people accepted the situation; there were
lio popular risings, and all except tnc armed
classes were quiescent and passive.
But now, like a field of corn stricken by the
wind, the population bends as we pass, but to
rise again. Frank marches victoriously from
the Gogra to the Goomteo, but insurrection is
not crushed by the footsteeps of his force.-
Rose has relieved Saugor and punished Jhansi,
but the country is up m his rear, and his com
munications are threatened. It has struck me
much that the natives do not come into our
camp3. So far as I can see, tho population
around us hold aloof, and do not seek to cSrry
on even that small traffic iu fruit and such lux
uries, in which our soldiers would so willingly
engage. There can be no question respect
ing the disaffection of a large body of the peo
pie to our rule, for we can gain no reliable in
formation of the movements of the enemy close
at hand.
Issecuritt of our Position.—If the peo
ple wc see around us, who are ten or twelve to
one as compared with us in this camp, were to
—no, not to arm and cut our throats, or poison
us. or anything of the sort—but were simply,
this night, to bid us a quiet, silent good-bye,
aud leave us, India would bo lost to us in a
day. It requires only that, and all tho power
of Englaud could not hold the Eastern empire.
Why, we could not even strike our tents with
out these men to-morrow! We are dependent
on them—even the common soldier is—for the
water we drink and the meals wo eat. for our
transport, and for all but the air we breathe
(and the latter, it must be admitted, is not im
proved by them sometimes). The moment
that such a thing becomes possible a3 a popu
lar desertion—from patriotic or any motives—
from the service of the State, it becomes impos
sible to hold India except upon sufferance.—
We arc, in fact, waging war with Hindoos and
Mussulmans, just as Alexander was able to
beat Porus by the aid of his Indian allies, and
no European or other State can ever rule in
India, without the co-operation of the races
which inhabit the vast peninsula.

Terrible Affair in Florida.
Four Respectable Citizens of Tampa Hung by
the Vigilants.
We received, yesterday, the following letter
from Tampa, in which is recorded one of the
greatest outrages that ever disgraced a coun
try of Jaw. Wc have no personal knowledge
of the writer, and the reader will form his own
opinion ol its reliability. From recent indica
tives from that quarter, we entertain but little
doubt of the correctness of his statements.—
We cannot believe, however, that mere politi
cal hostility is sufficient to drive men to such
desperate extremities.
Touching the appeal of the writer for pro
tection, wc can only refer him to the Gover
nor of Florida, whose duty it is to crush out,
by the military, if necessary, all such diaboli
cal proceedings and their authors.
Tampa, Fla., June 24th.
Editor Republican:
Dear Sir : The existence of an “Executive
Committee ” at this place is doubtless known
to you ; and as a law-abiding citizen of this
city, I feel it to be ray duty to state certain
facts to the world with reference to said com
mittee, and ask a place in your columns for
the publication of them, as our little paper
here, and in fact every paper in this portion
of the State, is either in league or fear of their
vigilance and tyranny.
This morning four of our most prominent
men, to-wit: John J. Early, D’Wift Lucian,
Jerome Baker, and Col. J. Alfonso Crockett,
were found hung to as many trees in the sub
urbs of our city. Intense excitement exists,
and many of our citizens are now under arms,
for the protection of law abiding citizens, who
dare to raise their hands against these mid
night assassins.
Another remarkable feature is this, every
one of these mer-were members of the “A-
merican Party.” Is it a proscription 7 Col.
Crockett aud Mr. Early leave interestingfam
ilies to deplore their loss, while the death of
all has cast a gloom over this community, from

two hundred persons, and remarkable to say
there were but two democrats in the concourse,

You may rely upon this being strictly cor

favor of Johu J. Crittenden for the next Presi
dency, and placed his name at the head of its
columns. The probabilities now are that the
opposition, Whig. American aud Black Be-

Seward, of New York, and thus ensure the
success of the candidate of the national Democ
