A well-regulated woman never eries." "I wish I wasn't a woman !" sob bed poor Lizzy. "I wish I wasn't something that bad to be elevate 1, ind improved aLd cultivated. Oh! mamma, darling, you weren't in ear rest when you said you wouldn't ,onsent to my marrying Charley. We shall be so happy together: and de says he will be miserable with )ut me; and-" "Elizabeth, I am astonished at you ! Of course I was in earnest!

You, Eliabeth, should rory in thus becoming an offer But Lizzy, apparently unappre iative of the great lot in store for, er, cried more piteously than ever. "Tears will not melt ne," said drs. Dewsford, calmly resuming he Encyclopedia. --I only re 7ret to be the mother of so degene ate a daughter !" "Mamma," ventured poor Lizzy .fter a few minutes of silent griev ng, "I-I promised Charley to ide out with him this afternoon !" "You must give him up, Elizabeth. Jpon such a subject I can accept Lo compromise!" "But I promised, mamma !" Mrs. Dewsford gravely rubbed he end of her nose. 'A promise is a promise,. Eliza >eth; nor shall I require of you o break it.' Here Lizzy visibly rrightened. 'But I shall accom iany you!' The pretty face be ame clouded and overcast once aore. 'Where are you going ' 'To the woods beyond the glen, amma. Charley is going to get ome wood sorrel for my herbari Lm.' -Nor will the expedition be un uofitable to me,' said Mrs. Dews ord, gravely. 'There are many hoice varieties of Adiantum and splenum to be found in these goods, and my collection of native ers is as yet incomplete.' And Lizzy went away in great onsterntion-niot torealI reports, or to study paleontology, but to lip out in the garden, where a ~reat rose- tree carpeted the velvet. ~rass with showers of soft pink pe als at every passing breaLh of air, ,nd where Charley Everett was usy cutt'ng out sticks for carna ins. 'Oh, Charley.-Oharley ! I am o miserable.' ' 'Lizzy, what is the matter?' He dropped knife, sticks and all n dismay at her woful counte ance ; and Lizzy told him, to the est of her ability, what 'the mat er' was. 'Is that all 'i he asked, quietly, hen the recital was concluded. 'Isn't that enough!' she rejoined, iteously. 'When we were going ,o have such a nice drive all by our elves, and then come home by noonlight, and-' 'iDon't fret, cara mia; it will be 1l right! So she won't consent to >ur marriage, eh ' 'She says most positively that he will not.'. 'What shall we do, Lizzy ? Shall e elope quietly t'I 'Oh, Charley, you know I would iever marry without her consent.' 'And are two lives to be made iserable just because she thinks natrimony is a mistake ? he asked gravely. 'I suppose so, Charley.' Lizzy Dewsford's pretty head dropped like a rose in the rain. Charley wvatched her quivering lip and tear-wet eye-lashes, and said no more. Mrs. Dewsford was ready with a preposterous green umbrella to keep off the sun, a tin case to put the ferns in, an extra pair of boots, in the event of swampy walking, when Mr. Everett's light photon drove up to the door. The springs creaked ominously as she stepped in ; and Lizzy, meekly following, was nearly overwhelmed by her mother's voluminous draperies. 'I had better sit in the middle it preserves the equilibrium of the vehicle better,' said Mrs. Dewsford, wedging herself in between Lizzy and Mr. Everett with a smile of great complacency. And she immediately began dis coursing on the properties and habits of the fern, with unpausing volubility, while Lizzy, perched on the extreme outer edge of the seat, had all she could do to keep in the v?hicle, and Mr. Everett's eyes were in extreme danger with the points of the green umbrella. which veered to and fro like a ship in a storm, as Mrs. Dewsford's tale waxed in intcr est. SudderLly she checked herself, as her eye caught a cluster of green waving vegetation on the crestlike point of a rock which overhung the road. 'Charles! Charles!' she c r i ed, 'stop a minute. Can't you reach that Asplenium Ebunum "' 'Is'nt this it, ma'am?' said Mr. Everett, making a dive at a tall stalk of something. -No, no; not that-the little green thing with the black stem !' 'This. ma'am?' hazarded Charlcy, clutching at a fat-leaved cluster of weedy growth.' 'Oh, dear. dear, Charles, how stupid you are 1' sigyhed Mrs. Dews ford. ''ll jump out and get it my self!' -Mamma!' remonstrated Lizzy. 'Oh, I'll help her ' nodded Char ley, springing nimbly on the cliff, and pulling Mrs. Dewsford by nain force up the rock. "Here you are, ma'am.' 'Yes,' panted Mrs. Dewsford: 'but -but it was very steep. I really think women should devote more attention to gymnastics. Oh, here's the Asplenium-very choice speci mens, too. Charles. where are you going?' For Mr. Everett had sprang back into the ph,eton. 'Only for a little tarn, ma'am, while you are collecting your botan ical treasures. 'Yes, but Charles-' Mrs. Dewsford's words of remon stance were drowned in the rattle of the wheels, as Mr. Everett drove briskly away, with Lizzy nestling up to his side. One long, linger ing glance she gave after the depArt ng pair, and then turned to her tin cse and umbrella. 'They'll be back presently.' she said. But the afternoon sunlight faded off from the clif, and the red orb of day sank majestically down be bind the evergreen glens that ounded the western horizon, and rs. Dewsford grew tired, and cross, and rheumatic, and still, like the haracter of romance, 'they camne not.' 'Something has happened!' cried he prophetic soul of Mrs. Dews ford. 'It can't be possible that I shall have to stay here all night !' She looked nervously round. It was a tall, steep cliff whereon she stood, cut off from the woods be ond by the rush and roar of a wide and by .no means shallow stream on one side ; while on the ther three it was almost perpendic lar, rising some twenty feet up from the road. Mrs. Dewsford be an to feel, as she surveyed it, very nuch like St. Sinieon Stylites on is column in the wilderness. 'If they shouldn't come!' she hought. But at the same instant a we] ome rumbling of wheels broke the ushed stillness of the seldom tray led mountain road, and Mrs. Dewsford's strained eyes caught sight of Mr. Everett's spirited gray, ashing round the curve of the hill. 'Well,' she cried, 'I never was :ore thankful for anything in my life! I'm tired to death, waiting.' 'Are you?' said Charles Everett. as he checked,.the horse in the mid de of the road. 'Yes. Why don't you drive closer.' sharply demanded Mrs. Dewsford. 'Oh, did you want to drive home ith us ?' 'Why, of course I did :I'd have been home long ago if I could have got off this place.' 'Well, ma'am,' said Charley, in cents of the coolest deliberation, while Lizzie clung, frightened and yet smiling. to his side, 'I shall be very happy to help you off the cliff on one condition.' 'Condition ! Charles Everett l' ex claimed the astonished and indig nant matron ; 'what do you mean?' 'Simply this, Mrs Dews!ord. I want to marry your daughter. But Lizzy, like a too dutiful child, will not become .my wife without your consent.' 'Which she shal.l never have !' said Mrs. Dewsford emphatically. Ver y well, ma'ami Gee up, Whitey ;' and he shook the reins. 'Tou're not going to leave me here ." shrieked Mrs. Dewsford, inj a panic of terror. 'Unless you comply with my con dition, nma'amn, I most certainly shall.' 'And that condition is-' 'Your consent to my marriage with your daughter !' 'Elizabeth!I' cried Mrs. Dewsford, 'will you be a witness to this-this atrocious conduct, and not inter fere ?' 'Charley won't let me have a voice in the matter', mamma, at all,' said TAzzy, demurely. 'He says he don'1 bleve in women's rights!' Mrs. Dewsford gave a hollow groan. -ir. E.,verett tonebled his horse slightly with the whip. 'Stop!' (ri.ed Mrs. Dewsford. 'I consent-but it is under protest !' 4you can protest a2L you like,' said Mr. Everett driving closer to the rock, and standing up to assist his mother-in-law elect into the photon. Silently Mrs. Dewsford entered the vehicle-silently she rode home -silently she crossed the threshold of her house. as became a conquer ed party! 'To think.' she said, in a hollow voice. as she sat down to dinner, 'that after all my precepts and examp.e, Elizabeth should end her career by getting married!' 'Mamma,' said Lizzy, timidly, 'I don't think it's so very terrible, af iter all! 'To think.' sighed Mrs. Dewsford, ipaying no -,ttention to her daugh ter's reply, -that you should meet the fate of any ordinary woman 'But, mamma, I never had any amabition to be an extraordinary wo manl!' And so was brought to a termina tion the plots and plans for a 'model existence' which had formed for Mrs. Dewsford's daughter! ACTS PASSED AT TIlE RE CENT SESSION OF THE GEN ERAL ASSEM1BLY.

About two years ago, a Missouri River steamboat left Fort Benton with a party of tough and well-to do miners on board. There were also among the passengers three or four "brace men," and before arriv ing at Sioux City they had general ly cleaned out the pockets of the miners. The boat stopped at Sioux City to wood up, and found among others waiting to get on board, a ministerial-looking personage, with the longest and most solemn coun tenance that could be well imagined. He was dressed in a suit of black, wore a white stove-pipe hat and cho k'er collar, ornamented with a black neck-handkerchief. Well, he got on board, and the boat started down stream. For two days he was unnoticed by the other passengers, but one of the sports at last thought he s4w a chance to make something out of the sad and melaiicholly individual. The latter would once or twice a day step up to the bar, and with a voice that was as mild and gentle as a maiden's, ask for "a glass of soda, if you please," and then he would pull a roll of bills from his pocket, and take a quarter from their inte rior layers. Then he would say to the bar keeper, as if under a thous and obligations, "Thank you sir," and walk aft again as if about to cominit suicide. This thing had gone far enough, and the gambler I have spoken of at last approached him. "Would you like a game of seven "Seven-up ? What is seven-up i Please tell me, my dear friend." "Why, a game of cards, you know, just to pass away the time. Let us play a game." "My good friend, I do not knoyv anything concerning cards I cannot play." "Well, come along, we'll show you how to do it." And the mild gentle man in black, after some further pro. tests, at length consented. They showed him how 'twas done, and they played several games. The gentleman in black was delight-. ed. Gamblers want to know if he will play poker, five cents ante, just for the fun of the thing. Gentle man in black says he can't play the game, but they explain again, and the poker commences. The gentle man in black looses every time. There are six men in the game. Each one deals before the gentleman in black, and ante has been raised to a dollar. Gent in black deals awkwardly, and looks at his hand. Next man to dealer bets five-goes around, and bets are raised to one hundred dol lars. Gent in black sees it, and goes one hundred better. Gain blers look surprised, but will not be bluffed. The bet had reached five hundred dollars-a thousand. All b.rew out excel~ Pike's Peak miner, who see' and cal]s him: "What haive you ?" "Waal," answer ed the gent in black, "-I have-let me see, let me see---waal, I have four ones." The gamblers, who have suspi cioned some time before, now look wild and the light begins to dawn in the miner's mind. He leaned across the table, and said in the most sarcastic tones he could command, "Oh! you heave, heave yer ? You d-xr sanctimonious shuffler." The gent got up from the table, and handed one of the gamblers his card. It read, "Bill Walker, New Orleans"-one of the most successful sharpers in the county. [San Juan Pro.spector. An Irishman speaking of suicide, said the only way to stop it was to make it a capital offense, punishable with death. They will never cease getting horrors in Chicago. There is now a movement on foot to abolish free lunches in that,.city. "If aMiss is asgood as a mile, how good is aMrs.t" .If she is widow, she will be good for a league ner any circnmstances. GEMNXA uit .IO. Ifa certaingcentleman of ancient Greece realy died, as one aecount Savs he did, from the effects of vio Ient laughter, caused by seeing a doikcv cat figs. this excessive amusement coild hard;y have been cansel by anything but the ex trcine novelty of the situation. Ai;d it is just such an element of complete un11expectedicss t h a t strikes us nmost in any ordinary developmilerit of German humor. The etitonic mind has the effeet of being so ponderous, and seems na! ur:lly so fitted for heavy and se-riousq occupations.,, thait we d-A! rive in such ezscs somewhat the same general impression we should receive on secing at elephant dis Porting himselfon the g:-een sward after the fashion of tho;e well known characters described 'in English poetry as "the young lambs so brisk and gay." There is, it is true, a great deal of difference in this respect be tween individuils. Home, in par Lieular, was possessed of a sort of Lumor that was always cold, cyni cal, and sardonic, and at the same time as keen and poignant as that of any trenchant wit ofotherlands, from Aristophanes to Thackeray. But Heine, though born a Dussel dorf, was of Jewish descent, and can -not be taken as a specimen of German intellect in general, while i a vast majority of those who real ly may be received as such differ from him in almost every respect. They dre as broad and plain vs he is light and incisive' and their ideas of humor are on a scale that seems to a fbreigner quite tremen dous. Another very noticeable charac teristic of German hunior is a cer tain wonderful.species of simplici ty that nearly always accompanies it. This suggcests, somehow, the deep, hearty,-and thoroughly en viable enjoyment a child exhibits over some piece of fun in which older persons would find it very hard to diskover any point atall. There are few more preposterous things in the world than the pro ceedings of a party of big stout Germans congregated in a drink ing saloon,and discussin gover-their beer some witticism whose stale ness, flatness, and u nprofitableness, tromi an un-Ger'manie point are positively phenomenal. The great, thunderous roars that corn~e forth V from their cavern-like jaws, the almost total disappearance of their eyes in masses of fleshy cheek, the resounding slaps in the face and violent punches in other -tender portions of the physical con forma Lion which they bestow upon each other in the excess of the-ir delight -all these tell of sensations with' which we outside barbarians have little in common. [EcoNoMY.-One of the hardest lessons in life for young people to I learn is to practice economy. It is a Iharder duty for a young man to ac cumulate and save his first thous and dollars than his next ten thous and. A man can be economical without being mean, and it is one of the most solemn duties to lay up sufficient in his days of strength and prosperity to provide for him self and those who are or may be] dependent upon him in his days of sickness or misfortune. Extrava gance is one of the greatestecrimes of the present age. 'It is under mining .and overturning the loft iest and best principles that should be restrained and held sa er'ed in society. It is annually send ing thousands of young men and women to rule' and misforturie. Cultivate, then, the sober and industrious habit of putting a lit tIe aside every day for your future{ necessities ; avoid all unnecesIary j and foolish expenditures. Spend your-time only in such a manner as shall bring you profit and en joyment, and your money for such things as you actually need, for your comfort and happiness, and you will prosper in your lives, your business, and you will win and retain the respect and honor of all substantial people.
