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 'nlddresshersclfagreat. deal better than ever ***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.

I was thinking if I had sav ed my money I might have been able to buy that place.” * use to cry after spilt milk, Edward,” No * money to meet her requisitions upon j replied Maria. ., t ... 3 - - • ftu honest man, lie had “I know that; hut we need nt spill.any more milk. I have been very economical the past year;” and lie proceeded to detail the retrench ments he had made. “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 like.” “With all my heart.” You shall allow me a fixed sum for my per sonal expenses.” “Say two hundred dollars. ’ ••Half that will do.” Parse; and bein rj i off many luxuries in order to pay these '' ; it had got into Maria 7 She wnsextrava- ■ iitid yet she did not seem to be dressed -A better, or his house to he supplied with ■ V additional luxuries.

You arc facetious. Maria. What are you laughing at 7” “Maria, for some reason or other, had hurst into a violent fit of laughter. “A'ou shall have the money, Edward. But you must promise not to tell any one what an extravagant wife you have, a3 you did Dr Smith.” “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 and dollars in quc Savings Bank, and the other six hundred in another bank. Of course Ed ward was astonished—It was his duty to be astonished. “Your extravagant wife lias saved sixteen hundred dollars of your msney, in spite of yonr teeth, besides curing you of sundry reckless habits.”—And she threw herself on the sofa, and. laughed till she had nearly gone into a fit. “Maria, you arc a jewel! I am amazed!” “You ought to be amazed “You paid Dr. Smith 7” “I did.” “He lied to me, then.” “No, he didn't; you and I are one, so of course you paid it. I had to tell him my secret, and iu return he informed me what an excellent character you had given me for prudence and economy. “Forgive me, Maria. A’ou have made me the happiest man in the world. “And I am revenged.” “Revenged 7” “A’ou found fault with me every day when you came home, and I resolved topuuishyou I knew you would not refuse me money, and I have at length brought you to your senses.” I see where tho money went to, now.” Do you, indeed 7” To tell the truth, I thought there was very little to Bhow for the money 1 gave you Sixteen hundred dollars money iu hand was a large sum to Edward, who had spent every thing as fast as he got it. He felt like a new man—like a rich man. What a treasure was Maria, who, besides being pretty, sweet tern- pered find derotedi ^vraa n thorough financier- For my part I should not like a financier on auy other terms. A prudent, but growling, ill-tempered shrew would be my abomination; and before her I should prefer a pretty, sweet tempered, devoted woman who would spend all 1 could get. The Raymond place, and a delightful place it was, immediately came into Edward’s pos session. It is paid lor now, and our friends are as happy as during their honey-moon. 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. from 00 “* Marin, I don’t mean these little ■■A’es, I can,” replied the pretty little, womau, ilie mischief gleaming in her radiant eyes. „ “Then we can buy a house in three years. “Suppose we buy Raymond's now 7” “But I cannot. 1 haven’t a dollar in the worlu after my bills are paid.” Correspondence of the Savnanah Republican. 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 hicli it will not shortly recover. They were followed to the grave by about two hundred persons, and remarkable to say there were but two democrats in the concourse, one of whom was the sextou, You may rely upon this being strictly cor rect and my excuse for thus addressing a stranger, is but that “ naked truths might come to light,” these damnable assassins may receive their just merits. As the friend of Americans, I ask that you population, which ever travels on the Grand j make an appeal to the General Government, Trunk road, aud whose waning watehfires you for protection, or at least demand an iuvesti- see among the trees as you pass along—all ■ gation.
