A Wife Wanted. I want a wife To cheer my life, I cave not what she Inoks of beauty, So I but find That sho is kind And know and practices her duty. I want a wife Averse to strife?

The principal markets for Italian wines aro Central and South America, Egypt, Turkey and Russia. The importation iuto the United States, though on the increase, is hindered by the inability of the Italians to under btand the requirements of the trade. A correspondent of the London Times, writing from Spuiu upon the subject of the political condition, says that the pcaplc do not care what form of govcrnmcut is adopted nor who may be appointed to rule over them so long as they aro undisturbed in their indus trial pursuits. Although Madrid is in tho turmoil of political excitcmeut, the* writer doubts whether the movement there has produced any echo in the rural districts or tho great centres of com rncrco and industry, excepting among tho class to whom a ministerial change means "bread lost or bread gained."
