The soldiers stacked their arms on the r pavements, and waited anxiously for their billets for quarters, Despite the severity of the weather, the citizens turned out in large numbers to welcome and ad mire the veterans in their rags. There was a general rejoicing throughout the city, which for the most part was illuminated. At the s extreme end of the town there was a single h.Qgg._whoJarkIorbid ing aspect was in strong contrast to the brilliant appearance of the eighboring buildings. It was theE esidence of the rich merchant eister Woerdon. He was com letely absorbed in his commercial perations, and neither knew nor ared to know what was going on in the political world ; and then, he as too familiar with the rules of conomy to think of squandering andles on an illumination. At this moment, when all was C jy and enthusiasm throughout C Asterdam, Meister Woerden sat qietly in his big arm-chair beside C he fire. On the table there was a E ittle brass lamp, a mug of beer, ~ nd a big clay pipe. On the other ide of the fire sat an old maid-ser ant, whose rotundity betrayed her Femish origin. She was occupied ~ in shoving back the coals that had ' fallen out on the hearth, when there ame a loud knock at the street 3 oor. "Who can that be?" "Go and ee," said the old merchant to the ~ aid, who had risen to her feet. A few moments later a stalwart oung man entered the room. He ~ hrew off his mantle and approach- E ed the fire. "Good evening, father," said he. "HXow? Is it you, Wflflam?iIdid ~ ot expect you back so soon." "I left Broek this morning, but ' he roads have been made so bad ~ y the arrmy-trains that we have ! een the whole day on the way." ~ "Well, did you see Van Elburg ?" ~ "Yes," said the young man, seat- ~ ig himself before the fire ; "Meis er van Elburg consents to themar iage, but he adheres to his determi ation to give his daughter a dowry f only four thousand ducats." "Well, then, he may keep his aughter and his dowry," replied Woerden, with a frown.3 "But, father-" "Not a word, my son ! At your age we have no more sense than to acrifice every thing for love, and o despise riches." "But Herr van Flburg is the rich est merchant in Holland, and what e does not give now will be ours t his death." "Nonsense!" r ep li ed Meister Woerden. "Am I too, not sick? [isten, my son. You will soon fol ow ae in my business. Never for et these two rules; never give more than you receive, and never further another man's interest to the detriment af your own. Guided by these principles, one will better his condition in marriage as well as n trade." "But father-" "Not.aggther word, mny son-not aother 'wQrd!" .-1 SWilliaur knew his father too well tosyaytigmoebth ol sayt avoi thming~hi more,u ebyud hisaoidevncinghis, dislxerure oid man pn-o attent ioweveretcalm iylldupp,zgial,adb > td man pkado atnotbcl I y filled his pipe, liehted ithand bei Again there was a loud rap at the street-door, while at the same time the dogs began to bark. "Aha !" said Meister Woerden, "it must be a stranger, or the dogs wouldn't bark so. Go and see who it is, William." The young man went to the win low. "It is one of the militia horse nen," said William. "Militia horseman ! What can he vant?" At this moment the maid-servant ,ntered and handed Woerden a let er. He carefully examined the sal "From th provisional govern aent," said he. His hand trembled as he hastily ipened the lettr and read it, but uddenly the old tradesman's face ighted up with a joyous expres ion as he cried: "Good-good! I accept." The letter contained an order for Dur hundred thousand herrings for he army to be delivered within a 2onth. "William," cried the old man, "I ave a capital thought. You would uarry Van Elburg's daughter, and ave a handsome dowry with her ?" "Yes, father, I would; but-" 'Well, leave the matter to me," iterrupted the old man. "But ee that there are two horses ready )r us to-morrow morning, early." The next morning, at- sunise, Aher and *son were on the high Dad from Amsterdam to Broek, rhich they reached about midday. 'hey repaired immediately to the sidence of Van Elburg, who, when e saw them enter, cried out: "Ah, good-morning, Me is t e r Voerden! Have you fled from the 'arlez- Tous? In any case, .you re welcome." "No I flee from nobody. You now I have nothing to do with olitics. I come to propose a good peculation to you." "Yes? What is it?" "I have an order. rom the govern ientior four huadred thousand errings, to be delivered within a ionth. Can you furnish me with bat number in, say three weeks ? "At what price ?" "Ten florins a thousand." "Ten forins! Yes, I will furnish em." "Very well, and now to dinner ; I m half famished. At the table we il talk of another matter." Woerden introduced the subject f the marriage, but Van Elburg ould not be persuaded to increase be dowry he had offered to give his taughter to the amount of a single tiver. They nevertheless decided hat the wedding should take place hat day next week. The following day, Woerden and is son returned home. Hardly ad they left Broek when the young 2an asked. "Then, father you have changed our mind ?" "How so?" "Have you not decided to accept he dowry offered by Meister Van Blburg ?" "Let me manage the matter in ay own way, my son, and ask no tuestions." When the wedding-day came. ~Voerden and his son returned to roek. Van Elburg received them indly, but he was so flurried and tervous that William feared he had ome bad news for them. His fa her, however, had no such nmisgiv ogs; the old fox knew too well the ause of his colleague's disturbed ianner. "What is the matter, Meister Van lburg ?" he asked, with a sardonic mile. "You seem to be worried about something." "Ah, my friend, I am greatly em arrssed. I must speak with you." "What is it ? Have you changed tour mind with regard to the mar iage. Speak frankly ; it is not too ate." "No no; it is another matter en irely." "Well then, let ns first proceed vith the wedding-ceremony. After vard I shall be quite at your ser rice." The company, therefore, repaired o a neighboring church, and in a ew minutes the young people were usband and wife. When they re urned to the house, Van Elburg ~sked Woerden to go with him in o his privato room. "My friend," began Van Elburg, vhen he had carefully closed the loor, "in accordance with our greement, I should within two veeks from now deliver to you four mndred thousand herrings. Thus a1g however; I have not been able orocu.re a single one. There are o.ne in the market ; they have been 1 bought up." 'Certainly they have, I bought hem up myself," replied Woerden, ~miling. . "Bet-but---iow about y con ".eV'tatmmerel Van3lburg1 -~ ;. - "You will fulfill it. Listen, frien< Van Elburg: you will some dai leave your daughter a handsomi fortune; I shall leave my son al lep as much; it is therefore un necessary to discuss their future This, however, is not true of th< present. I shall soon give my en tire business to my son, while you give your daughter only four thous and ducats. I could not oppose the wishes of the young people; but when Iconsented to their union, I determined to compel you to do your duty toward them. With this object in view, I contracted with you for four hundred thousand her. rings, at ten forins a thousand, al though I then had all the herrings in the market. Now in order tc comply with the terms of your agreement, you must buy from me, and my price ifty florins a thous and; you have therefore, only to pay over to me the sum of sixteen thous and forins, and we shall be square.' While Meister Weorden was ar riving at this mercantile deduction, Van Elburg regained his wonted equanimity. 'I see, I see," said he, "you are a clever tradesman. I am fairly caught, and must bide the conse quences." Their confereige ended, and the two merchants rejoined the wed ding-company, as though nothing unusual had occurred between them. A week later, Van Elburg went to Amsterdam, ostensibly to see his daughter. Now the tables were turned. "Ah, meister,"cried Woerden, on seeing his -colleague from Broek, "I am1 in a terrible dilemma. The time is approaching when I must deliver th6 foi& Iundred thousand herrings, and not a cask can I find to put them in!" "That does not surprise me," au sweredVan Eburg, smiling; "you bought up all-my herrings, and I bought up,all your casks." DECEIT OF SONG WRITERS. BY THE "FAT CONTRIBUTOE. The man who wr ote "Home, Sweet Home," never had a home. [Exchange. No, of course not, all his folks al home says he didn't. Nobody who ever writes about anything ever had it. If aman is out of anything he immediately goes and. writes aboul it. No man writes so many "head ings" as the man who is out 'of his head. Certainly he didn't have3 any home. The man who wrote the "Old Arm Chair" never had an arm~ chair in all his life. The besthe had was an old split-bottom without any back to it. The author of "Take Me Back tc Switzerland" never was in Switzer land. The nearest he came to it was sitting in the William Tell Sa loon eating Switzer kase; kase whyl that was the best that he could do. "Mother, I've Come Home tc Die" has not spoken to the old wo man for years, and wouldn't go near the house. Besides he's of that class of spiritualists who don't be lieve they will ever die. His health was never better. His mother is nothing but a mother-in law, and she is dead now, anyhow. There is the author of "Old Oak en Bucket," too. There wasn't a bucket on the old farm, water being drawn with a tin pail and a cistern pole. "If I Had but aThousand a Year stated privately to his best friends that he would be contented with hali that sum, as he was doing chores foi his board and three months schoeb ing in the winter. The author of "Champagne Char ley" never drank anything but 1C cent whiskey. The man who wrote "Mary Had a Little Lamb" knew very well it was nothing but a little lamb fry. "Shells of Ocean" is a humbug, The very plaintive poet, who repre sents himself as wandering, one summer eve, wihsea beat through, on a pensive shore,was raised in the interior of Pennsylvania, and never was ten miles from home in all his life. "Gathered shells," did he ? All the shells that he ever gathered were some egg-shells back of his mother's kitchen. "Hark I hear the Angels Sing' spent all his evenings in a beer sa loon. Angels indeed. The man who wrote the "Song of the Shirt" hadn't a shirt to hii back, wearing a wampus for the most part. "Oft in the Stilly Night" used tc get on a spree and make the still' night howl till day light. .The author of. "We Met. b (imne" knew very well4it. was ar ranedA befrobano? He abeer I a week contriving it-and she ad r mired his contrivance. The author of "I know a Bank," &c., didn't know one where he . could get his note discounted. The only check he ever had was a white check on a faro bank. He never held a red check in all his life. "What are the Wild Waves Say ing?" knew very well ihey were re proaching him for running away from Long Branch without paying his hotel bill. "Who will Care for Mother now?" Who, indeed. You took the old woman to the poor-house just be fore writing the song, and there is nobody but the poor-master to care for her now. "Hear me, Norma" was deaf and dumb. He couldn't make his pa hear nor ma. "My Mother, Dear" used to thrash the old woman within an inch of her life. The author of "Rain on the Roof" always slept in the basement except when he slept out of doors. "Let Me Kiss Him for His Mo ther" got mad because his mother wouldn't have him, and whipped her little boy within an inch of his life. "I Dreamed I Dwelt in Marble Halls" used to cheat at marbles when a boy, and his dream was a horrid nightmare, brought on by the remorse at the recollection of fraudulent marble hands. I'Tm Saddest when I Sing" was tickled almost to death when invited to. "Happy Be Thy Dreams" sold benzine whiskey. You can fancy what kind of dreams were produ ced. SMILEYS GUNl. Recentlyit occurredte Mr. Smiley, of Darby, that it would be a good thing to go out to see if he could not shoot a rabbit or two. He al ways kept lIis gun loaded and ready, fn-re cre WMEFO-the roo so no merely shouldered it and went out. After awhilehe saw'arabbit, and taking aim he pulled the trigger. The gun failed to go of. Then he pulled the other trigger, and the cap snapped again, and then, taking a pin, he picked the nipples of the gun, primed them with a little pow der, and then started again. Pre sently he saw another rabbit, but both caps snapped again. The rabbit did not,see Smiley, so he put on more caps, and then they snapped too. Then Smiley cleaned out the nipples again, primed them, and fired the gun-off at a fence. Then the caps snapped again. Smiley became furious, and in his rage he expended forty-seven caps in an effort to make the gun go off. When the forty-seventh cap missed also, Smiley thought there might perhaps be something the matter with the inside of the gun, so he tried the barrels with his ramrod. To his utter dismay he discovered that both barrels were empty. Mrs. Smiley who is nervous about fire arms, had drawn the loads without telling Smiley, for fear of making him angry. If there had been a welkin anywhere about it would would probably have been made to ring with Mr. Smiley's excited de nunciations of Mrs. Smiley. Final ly, however, he became cooler, and and loading both barrels, he start ed again after rabbits. He saw one in a few moments, and was about to fire, when he noticed that there were no caps on his gun. He felt for one, and to his dismay found that he had snapped the last one of. Then he ground his teeth and walk ed home. On his way there he saw at least six hundred rabbits. He has been out hunting every day since, however, with his gun in first-rate order, and he has never -laid eyes on a solitary rabbit. Smi ley is beginning to think something is wrong in the government of the universe. The latest new thing in Brook lyn, New~ York, is a Lady Washing ton Tea Party, at the Academy of Music. Revolutionary uniforms have been obtained from the Put man Phalanx and elsewhere. Ladies and gentlemen will attend in the dress of the time, the gentlemen in knee breeches, silk stockings, cutaway coat and bag wig, and the ladies in the cap, scarf, stomachers and petticoat of "ye olden time."

Mark Twain has been interveiw ed. It took some preparation to get Mr. Twain's mind in a condi tion to be interviewed-he didn't take to it naturally though he was extremely willing. At last how ever, the interviewer got Mark's wandering attention fixed and at it they went in good earnest. Q. How old are you? A. Nineteen, in June. Q. Indeed! I would have taken you to be thirty-five or six. Where were youborn? A. In Missouri Q. When did you begin to write? A. In 1836. Q. Why, how could that be, if you are only nineteen now? A. I don't know. It does seem curious somehow. Q. It does indeed Who do you consider the most remarkable man you ever saw? A. Aaron Burr. Q. But you never could have met Aaron Burr if you're only 19 years A. Now, if youknow more about me than I do, what do you ask me for? Q. Well it was only a suggestion; nothing more. How did you hap pen to meet Burr? A. Well I happened to be at his funeral one day and he asked me to make less noise, and--. Q. But good heavens! if you were at his funeral, he must have been dead-and if he was dead, how could he care whethei You made a noise or not? A. I don't know. He was al ways a particular- kind of a man that way. Q. ~Stil, Idon't understand.it all. You say he spoke to you, and that he was dead? A. I didn't say he was dead! Q But wasn't'lb dea. A.

TE1msz:--When a lady went to Dover or Palmyra, our commercial cities in those days, and bought a calico dress, says an exchangd, speaking of early days in Tennessee, it aroused and excited the whole community more than the kiling of abear caught in the cow-pen, which was a frequent oc currence. When a calico dress was purchased, the news spread like wildfire. It was narrated abroad that such a one had bought a calico dress. In those days we had our sugar camps, and made our own sugar; coffee was bought at our commercial cities, and used only on Sundays. Milk, the best and most healthy beverage in the world, was daily used, and the rose bloom ed and played upon every girl's cheek. There were no calomel doctors' bills to pay. They are a wrthy and useful profession of the present day. We had meeting houses in those days, made of logs and clapboards. We called it going to meeting. The elegant phrase now is to attend church, and to go in buggies and carriages. We walk ed from three to five miles in going to meeting, playing with the girls all the way. I have seen from f.fty to one hundred ladies walking barefooted to meeting, carrying their shoes and stockings in their hands, and on arriving, sitting down along the branch, washing their beautiful feet, and putting on their stockings' and shoes, preparatory An exchange gets off the follow ing : 'We don't want to interfere with anybody's domestic affairs, but if your wife asks you to read from the sixth chapter of Xebrews ofteni the following tuay account for'it:t "A old citizen of dBpkins, Mo., who has been insane through constant arigand study of The sixth chap erof-Hebrews, recently gommitted bucde by hanging ~ TRIALS AND TRIUMPHS OF JOHN B. GOUGH. A New York correspondent of the Chicago Times write&: One of the most sucessful lecturers of the day is John B. Gough, who began his career as a speaker in favor of tem perance. Born in Landgate, Eng land, fifty-seven years ago, his father being a pensioed sodier who had fought under Wellington, and his mother a school-mistress, he came to this country as appren tice to an emigrating in his thirteenth year, and took up his abode on a farm in Oneida county in this State. Soon after, he removed to New York, and went to work as a book binder. Con vivial habits grew upon him until he became a confirmed drankar& Penniless, homeless, degraded, it was his custom to resort to the low est grogeries in the Sixth ward to play the buffoon for liquor. Attwen ty-two he attempted to reform, and got married. He was doing quite well as a book-binder when he fell once more into intelost his wife and child, and sunk to the condition of a wretched outeast. A benevolent Quaker, meeting him-in the streets one'day, induced him to take the pledge. After that he went to a temper ance meeting, and related his expe rience with iuch power and effect that he became a prominent orator in the cause. Two or three years later he violated his pledge; iade confession of the factin Worcester, Mass., and has since had strength enough to lie entirely abstemioUs. In 1853 he went to England, at the invitation of the Londoi Tem peralce League, and letire& to immense audiences. Of recent years he has devoted himself to the Lyceum, andhas found his profit in it. He has twice as many offeis he can fi%, and is, probably, th ioat popular speAker in the country. He has lectured as many as two hun dred anda fift imes d&ing -a' sea- % to $25;000. DmoIIR ron TBn Ensm-He said he Edn't care anything about liquor, only the effects. He never liked the taste of it, always made him "gag" to drink it; and he made up an awful face as he tookitdown. Bit it was the effeets lie was after. If it wasn't for the effects he would. never drink a drop of ligniofin all Iis life. He was anice young m-an when we first beard him say that. He had health, good looks, proper ty and a respectable position in so iety. The only perceptile effects of his potationsthen werethe height ened color in his cheeks, increaEed brillincy of the eyes and vivaci ty in conversation. He was gener otis and liberal with his money, tdo, and had a "host of friends." Well, he kept on drinking for the effects and he got them, as every man will who keeps at it long enough.
