A soar throat. Wait not for difliiculties to cease; glory j lies in overcoming them We find self-made men very often, but self-unmade ones a great deal oftener What the Christain world wants, is more love. Ijovo rules his kingdom without a sword. In China the natives call an Englishman “1 say.” A yankee would be called “ I guess.” There ia no man who would not he mor tified, if he knew w hat his friends thought of him. Why is a ripe field of grain like a cross baby? Because both want the cradle Better he despised for too anxious apple hensions, than ruled by too confident a so curity. How should I.ovc come to the door ? Cer tainly with a ring, but not without a rap I lu.. who ia impatient to become his own master, is most likely to become merely lie own slave. Why should custom house inspectors hi patient wuiters ? Because they arc tied waiters. Kings never hear the voice of truth until they are dethroned, nor beauties until they have abdicated their charms. Who eat more—the black or the white powjde? The white; because there are more us thorn USEFUL RKCIPE& riiiM Floor J ‘arpsts l loor-oluliui may ho cleaned with a mix lure of magnesia, only milk warm, followed by warm water, in the same manner that carpets arc cleaned They should be rub lied with a dry flannel till nearly dried, then again wet over with sponge dipped in milk, and immediately dried and rulmed with a flannel till the polish is restored. This is a process much to he preferred to that of rub bing the cloth wiih wax, which leaves it stick and liable to retain dual and diit fora long time. Very hot water should never he in cleaning floor-cloths, as it bring* off the paint. Cleansing Sofa Covering, If the covers of sofa and chairs are dirty thevmay be ‘.-nnsoil without being removed by first washing them over with warm water nnd soap rubbed over them with a flannel; the, before they are dry, sponge them over with a strong solution of salt nnd water, in which a small quantity of gall has been mix ed. The windows of the room should In dusted with a feather-brush, then washed over with sponge dipped in spirit!, to re move the fly-spots ; alter this, it should be dusted withe the powder-hluc in a thin mus iin bag. and fiually polished with an old silk haukerehief.

Polished steel articles, if rubbed every morning with leather, will not become <1 nil or rusty ; but if rust has been suffered t. gather, it must he immediately removed b\ covering the steel with sweet oil, and allow ing it to remain ou for two days; then sprinkle it over with finely-powdered utrsla ked lime, and rub it with polishing leather TP clean Whitewash Broshes. IVash off with cold water the lime from the bristles of the brush, and scrub well with a hard scrubbing-brush the part where the briatle are fixed into the wood This should be done at once, as soon asth white washing for that day is finished It is far better then te lot them soak all night.

The last time we saw the hearty, roistering fellow—peace to his reuianes, he is now no more—he was dickering with an English man in the lobby of the inn regarding the | bill. The stranger said it was a gross im | |titiou —he could live cheaper iu the best 1 i hotel iu J .on don: to which Bab, witli un ! wonted nonchalance, replied, “O. nae doot, ’ j ir, nac doot, ava But do ye ker the rea I son ?” J “ No, not u bit of it,” said the strung! r hastily. ■■ \\ cel, then,” replied the host, “as ye I Mi ni to he a gay, sensible gallant, I'll tell ye.

Blivcns was very sparing in his use of it. “ Dear I (livens,” —Mrs .Smithers always “dears” her boarders—“don't be afraid of the butter. There's a plenty down stairs. I didn't bring it up because it's so warm.” People were wearing overcoats out of doors.) “ Afraid of the butter, tumn,” said Tlliv ens, who partakes of the prevailing pugilis tie excitement, elevatuig his eyes and biv knife simultaneously, “afraid of the butter !” fenergetically ) “I slioudn’t. h afraid on it, if it was twice as strung as it is It is recorded of the famous Mr Mytton, that having leaped over a fence into a grav el-pit some thirty feet deep, he lay there with his broken lugs perfectly quiet, iu the hope that he might have company Pres sently a farmer come down, horse and man. with grevious damage, and almost on tin top of him. “\\ hy did you not warn me?” erics the unfortunate. “Why did you not liulloa while there was yet time ?”—“Hush, hush, you fool replied Mytton ; “if you will only hold your noise, we shall soon have the pit full of them.” An English volunteer rifle captain, de siring to cross a field with his company, came to an opening in the fence large enough to admit two persons, hut no more, to pass abreast, l ufortunately lie could not re member the words nlVoniuiand which wouli. have accomplished the difficult task of filing through; hut his ingenuity did not dusert him, and therefore lie ordered a halt, and then said, “(icntlcnic.ii, you are dismissed for one minute, when you will full on t'othei side of the fence,” An exulted Englishman grew rather boas'- lid in the reading room of the .St Kiel ol is Hotel, in refcro.iioc to the “Big Ship.”— After asserting that she wasn’t the “largest steamship hold I England could berect,” hi asked a quiet individual in the group what he thought of her. “Well,” replied the in dividual, “she’ll do very well as a passcii gor-heat on tJvo Erie ('anal, but she's slow for river business.” With a “Bluwstod hig uoramuß,” Joint left, that section.

The clergyman asked what she had been outing. “O, only half a mince pic.” “Well said he, “if you had devoured the other half, you might probably have seen your grandmother.” “ Nothing lets you into the secret of the nature of a man's taste,” said an old gentle man, “as the style and character of the pic tures that decorate the walls id his dwell ing."—“Rut,” said a wag,“just suppose that lie has no pictures —"Then he hns no taste,’ said the old gentleman. The poorest are not frequently the hap piest. A Sultan, who, as a cure for low -pints, was dirt'cted by his physician to wear the shirt of the happiest man in his domains, selected a gay and tcvklcc fellow -hut on stripping him for his shirt, found he didn't wear one. “ 1 think wife that you have a great many ways of calling rue a fool.” “ 1 think, husband, that you have a great many ways ofbeitig one.” A young lady says the reason she carries a parasol is, that the sun is of the masculine gender, and she cannot withstaud his ardent glances.
