Home Is Where There is One to Love L's. Home's not merely four square walls, Though with pictures hung and gildod ; Homo is whore Affection calls. Filled with shrines the heart hath builded. ; Home! Go watch the faithful dove Sailing neath tho heaven above us ; Homo is where there's one to love Home is where there's one to love us. Homo's not nierolv roof and room. It need? som?thinsr to endear it ; Home is whore the heart can bloom- ? Whore there's some kind lip to cheer it. What is Home with none to meet. None to welcome, none to erect us ? Home is sweet-and onlv sweet-. - When there's one we love to meet us. THE STORY OF A WOMAN'S LIFE. " Good morning, Mrs. Morton. T just, run in a moment to inquire if a bit of news*I have heard b? trup. Tf is too incredible for me to believe, for with all your practical idea? of life, I "cannot think you would carrv your peculiar notions to. such a length as this." " Pray what have I been doing now. MT. Ellis?" said Mrs. Morton, as she qnielV arose and offered her visitor a chair. " Your words and looks are ominous. Have I committed snob a breach of propriety that Madam Grundy bas found it necessary to hurl her thunder of escommunjetton against me? Come, silence mr ?P? pens* quickly;" and with a pleasant smil? the lady awaited her visitor's revelation. "Why, lam told that yon hf.ve actually apprenticed Belle to a pnb . lisher, in order that she may become a compositor. Every one was falkiner about, it last evening at Mrs. Wilson's party, and all thought it a great pity thar so beautiful and accomplished a qirl as Isabelle Morton should be withdrawn from that society she is so well fitted to adorn,- and. immured within the walls of a dingy, old pub lishing-house, simply beca?se her mother chooses to sacrifice her child to that Moloch of her'?-work. As for me. I cannot think you are so blind to .your only daughter's inter est?." " Yes. it is true," said Mrs. Mor ton, glancing np a moment from uer work, for her fingers werp ever busy with something. " But I see nothing ? in this to create such a profound sen sation. Belle is. not lost to society*; ' she will have many hours for recrea tion, and wi?l thus be enabled to meet any reasonable demands society may make upon her." " No doubt she will. Is it possi ble, Mrs. Morton, you do not know ihat you are effectually banishing yuur daughter from .sovieiy ? For, ot course, much as I do deplore such ? state of affairs, ' our set' could never recognize an humble type-setter as one of themselves. This is ali wrong, j I admit, but public opinion regulates j these matters, and one must drift with ? the current, you know. Belle has j just graduated with the highest hon ors, and with her lovely manners and fresh young face, might command the most eligible mutch in the city. It is absolutely cruel to sacrifice the sweet girl in this way !" .! Well, Mrs. Eliis, I take up the gauntlet society has thro vn down, and shall fearlessly perform what J conceive to be my dui} ,? though I am never again recognized by one ol ! t hose with whom I am accustomed to associate.

If dried in the sitn, leaves drop off .ind are lost. \\ cm vd in the shade with a fre>-. ci lat'nn of air, the leaves Will rei on toe vines, unless the viues are turing fruit, in which stage we it impossible so to cure them save the leaves. A very common and a satisfac plan of curing, . is to stack the vi as soon as wilted a little, aroui tree top, or brush-stack, as it is cal The leaves ?nd twigs are trimi from a tree top, or a sapling, the c of the branches cut off, leaving arms on, and through which thev: are arranged. The sapling mus course be stuck firmly in the gro so as not to fall down or be blt down by the wind. The vines she be placed in good shapely* stacks, as to shed water. The rail pen plan is also a g one. Build the pen two rails hi and throw across it a flooring of ra build up four or five rails higher, ? then fill up with the fresh vines ; tl lay another nooning, build up * fill in as before, and so continue the pen is ten or twelve feet hi when it uiusr. be roofed over lik shuck pen, for protection.

The H"n EUzur Wright, who is admitted to be the greate* : Insurance Matliimatit-'ian and Actuary in America, congratulating The Brooklyn !?jxn: Mi i new and distinctive feature, says, among other things, "I am pat Mehl arly ;.'.' -<i by your departure in the right direction from the j mJinury- mct/iod of computing thc Smrreiuh?' Values." "Ono of the great est drawbacks to the popularity of Life Insurance, has been thc disap pointment and dissatisfaction of retiring Pqlicy holders, at the smallness of thc surrender value paid," &o. "AU this would have be?n prevented hy *a distinct nUUcment on Ute Bolicy. in adoance, of the sum to bc paid." This statement, it will be .seen, The Brooklyn makes in dolla/s and '.cuts, so that there can be no mistake. . * .
