ONLY A FARMER'S WIFE. Two women snt logethor nt sunset in tho porch door of b white cottage thai stood under its "ancestral tree" and among ita tj?-i?

And one of these two women hud eyes to see. cars to hear, and a heart to iVcl and appreciate it all.

Tho Oareful toilet, the nameless air of elegance and luxury, tlie pale uheek, tho soft white hands betrayed the city d.ttne.

Her companion, was some five ve u her junior, und many times prettier?.1 little round'faced, apple uhcoked woman ?with dark blue eyes and dark brown hair, nnd a rounded figure that was s t off to the best advantage l?y the after noon dress of tinted muslin that site wore. At present the pretty face was almost spoiled by a querulous, discontented ex pression.

"J belli's all right,'' said the old Virginia", turning them around, and tho .-tout old store keeper, blowing with exertion, descended from his perch, where hu was straddling from shelf to cmuter.

Let them pa"k up all their property and start immedi ntely for the inountatnons distjict/ to tho extreme cast of Huiignry. They will find that at this scuson of the year a fair is held of marriageable young mca and women. From all quaters long trains of ehuriots wind their way to tho plaiu of KaliuoM. They are luden with house hold furuiture, nnd followed by tho cat tle of the family. In the midst of these goods may be seon the young iady whom her family has brought toseek a husband at the fair She is dressed in her beat, with brilliant Bilk scarf and scarlet petti coat. These caravans take up their position one after another on oaoside of the lain, while on the other side n cav alcade of youog men approach and de ploys along the whole line. The tneu? young WallachiatH, for the most part ? arc dressed in their best g iat skins and make what show of horsemanship they can. After both parties have taken up their respective quarters opposite each other, the father steps forward and begin to ncgot'ate marriage for their children. The question asked on theso ?ccasious arc, we fear, of a somewhat sordid char acter. "How many bullocks?" "How much money? ' "Your daughter's fur niture looks rather old; that chest of drawers does uot shut properly. I mun find s^inethiue: better thuu that f?w iny son. Such would doubtless be a or reel report id the conversation held iu this primitive if not poetical Arcadia, previous to clinching to matrimonial bar gains.

Each kind of birds sings its own pecu liar notes, but all may be taught to sing regular tunes. Tho mocking-bird and thiuth learus tunes without training. But by a regular education, other birds may become line performers. A contribu tor to the Nursery says: Last summer I was at a friend's house at Nahant. I rose early in the morniug. and went down stairs to walk on the pi uzza. While there I heard as I thought some person whistling a tune in a very sweet style. I looked arouud but could sec no ono. Where could tho sound come from I I looked up, aud saw a lit tle bird in a cage. Tho cage was huug in the midst of flowers aud twiuing plants. "Can it be," thought I, "that such a little bird as that has been taught to sing a regular tuuc so sweetly!" I did not know what to make of it When my friend came down stairs sho told me that it was the little bird who had whistled the sweet tune. Then my friend cried out to the bird, "Come, Bul ly Bully, sweat little bullfinch, giro us just one more tuae." And thou this little bird hopped about the cage look ed at its mistress, aud whistled another sweet tune. It was eo strange to hear a bird whist In a regular tone "Now, Bully," said my frend, "you must give us 'Yankee Doodle, Come, come, you shall have some nice fresh seed if you will whistle'Yankee Doodle." Aud the little thin^ did whistle it, much to my surprise. My friend then to!d rac that she had brought tho bird from the little town of Fulda iu Germany, where there aro lit tle schools for teachiug these birds to sing. When a bullfinch has learned to sing two or three tunes, hois worth from forty to sixty dollars, for he will bring that price in Franco or England. Great skill and patience are nenJ?^ *^ ? ..-?.I. ?Kam I.'ii-Jh. Pt,rv 4.? -?;UU have the time to give to tho children under their charge so much caro as the bird teachers give to their bird pupils. The birds arc put into classes of about six each, and kept for a time in a dark room. Here, when their food is given to them, they arc made to hear music, so that, when tboy have eaten their food or when they want more foid, they will sing and try to imitatj the tuno they have just heard. This tune they proba bly couuect with the act of feeding. As soon as they bogiu to imitate a few notes the light is let into tho room an 1 this cheers them still more, and makes them feel as if they would like to sing. Iu some of these schools the birds aro al lowod neither light nor food till they begin to siug. These aro the schools where the teachers are most strict. After being thus taught in classes each bullfinch is put under the care of a boy, who pluys his organ from morning till night, while the master or mUtrcis of the bird school goes round to sec how the pupils are getting on. The bullfinches seem to know at oueo when they aro scollel and when they are praised by their master or mistress; and they like to be petted when they have doue well. The training goes on for nine months, and then the birds have got their education aud aro scut to Eng. laud or France, aud sotuetimesto Ameri ca, to be sold. All animal'), all birds, and all reptiles ? even fishes?are susceptible of culture and improvements. So areplauts, roots, and fruits. Aud, above and beyond all are human buiugs capable of almost il limitable development, both of body and mind Olive Logun commenced ono of her lectures at Newark recently with the re mark : "When I sco a pretty girl I want to olasp her to ni) arms." "So do we," shouted tho.boys iu the gallery. For a moment, Olive was uonplusscd, but, recovering her sell possession, she replied: "Well, boys, I don't blame you." Sartorial Indignation.?A live well ou-other's-cx pease last Spring was indebted to a German tailor. Last Juuc tho tailor called for his pay. "Well Mr. Schmidt, you must call next month." Schmidt became oxasperated, and could ouly say : "First, May; then, Yune; thor., You lie against," Jenny Lind's Simplicity. Says Hans Christian Anderson, of Jenny kind, in his "Story of my Life" ; "On one occasion only did I hear her express her joy in her talent and her self consciousness. It was daring her last residence in Copenhagen. Almost every evening she appeared either in tho opera or at concert; every hoar was in requisition. She heard of a society, tbo object of which was to assist the unfor tunate children, and to take them out ot the hands of their parents, by whom they were misused and compelled either to beg or steal. "Let me," said she, give a night'? performance for these poor children; but we will have double prices. Such a performance was given, and returned large proceeds. When she was informed of this, and by that means-a number of poor children would be bene fited for several years, her countenance: became, and the tears filled her eyes. "Is it not beautiful,'said she,' that I can sing so?' Through her I first be came sensible of the holiness there is ia art; through her I learned that one most forget one's self in the service of the So? preine." When a negro jury in Mississippi went out to deliberate one juror asked another: "Is dis a hanging case ?" "To be sure, nigger," was the answer. "Well," said the first juror "dis nig ger heerd one dem lawyers say dst boy'* gosc coniin' back her and haunt us if we hang him. 110 go for hanging, and have dat boy's gose follow me! Nof sir." Verdict of manslaughter. Poor Fellow.?A young gentleman Set describing the effects of bis waits, says, that for fifteen minutc3 hi appeared, to be rwimming in a sea of rose leaves with a blue ?.?cirT This soon ohauzea, says to a delii inm of peacock feathers in which hi? brains got so mixed with low-necked frooks, musk, and melody that he has fed on flutes ever since. 'Ma'am, can you give me a glass of grog! said a traveller in Arkansas as her entered a cabin on the road side. *I ain't got a drop stranger.' Bnt a gen? tlcman told me just now that you had received a barrel. Why good gracious! What do you reckon one barrel of whis key is to me and my children when wo aro out of milk? A reporter in describing a bride, got his commas rather mixed, so that his account read thus: She stood before tho alter on her head, a fair wreath of orangey blossoms upon her dainty feet, lovely _ white satin shoes upon her sweet lips, a confiding happy smile as she gased loT* ingly upon him who stood by her side. Whcu Brigham Young received the ten boxes containing the iaaportol silk dresses and cashmere shawls for his thir ty wives he said to a friend: "Ah if yo~ k"3T? the the co?-*?f th*se ?*cw><i? ?ftav would not believe tor a moment that I practiced polygamy as an earthly pleas ure No sir! It is with me a stern duty* A lawyer and a parson were talking about which Way the wind was. Tho former said, "we go by the court house vane." "And we," replied the parson, "go by the church vane." "Well" said the lawyer, "in the matter of wind that is the best authority," and the parson went to cogitate. Among the various devices for swell ing the subscription list of provincial papers the most brilliant is that of a Southern editor, who promises to name a baby each year after the person who shall furnish the largest list of new sub* scribers. We trust tho babies are not bis own. "Brown, what did you clear by that grand speoculation ?" "Clear!" answered Brown; "why, I cleared my pockets." It is written that "the glory of a wo* man is her hair ;" but it is not under stood that the glory of any woman ia any other woman's hair. ? ' .'i Ws% FOR SALE OB TO IMEWT.
