HOW REUBEN WAS SAVES. A St?ry for Boys. Mr. Lin wood, an old merchant of Bos? ton, carrying on a large : importing, wholesale and retail dry goods business, visited one day, some fifteen years ago;.a brother merchant in a suburban town. As' he Was- passing through the. mer? chant's store, ais eye. fe& upon a roll of foreign lace exposed, for sale. He gave it a scrutinizing glance, paused, -and for a moment appeared to be quite absent minded. ? Then, recovering himself, he made some careless remarky and passed on to the counting room. Alter transact? ing the business which had brought him there he remarked, as he arose to take leave: "Mr. Ames, perhaps you noticed that I looked rather closely/ at a piece of lace on''your middle counter, as I came in. That is a very peculiar,\ kind of lace. Are you aware of the fact?" . "I hadn't thought much about it " re? plied Mr. Ames. "I don't know so much about laces as you do." . "Perhaps I kfiow-as much About them as any other .man," said Mr. Linwood. "I ought to, for T have imported laces these twenty years, and, besides, I have visited all the principal places in France and Belgium where they are made.?-f Do you-'know" where that lace comes from?" "]?o, I do not. It is Valenciennes, I believe-?" r> . ? "You are right. It was made at Conr trai. Show me any jjiece^of .Y^ilencien nes lace, anl^5wlrte1^6irwhether it was made at Courtrai, or Bruges, or Ghent, or any other of the hallndozen places where Valenciennes is; manufac? tured. Though all use the same mate? rials, and work them by the same process, each place produces. its peculiar style, which an experienced person can always identify." - "This lace," added Mr. linwood, grave? ly, after a moment's-pause, "is Urn?! f^ft''^r mSSf^Si until l w^ii^n^curiula^ that it was for sale in any other store in America than nry own." "Indeed 1" said Mr. Ames, Interested. "I suppose you import it?" "I not only Import, iL" replied Mr. Linwood, as if it-were A. matter of serious importance, "but I import all that is made of it, and that is a small quantity. More than that, I do not wholesale it; I keep it for my retail customers. So the question is," he said, with a smile, "how. you came DT;tfiat lice V '1 camelfcrfe8^-f$ laughed Mr. Ames. "But it is rather strange, if, as you say, you import all of It.1 You must be mistaken in some way." "Very; .If^Sji* :?r '*^ye" snppes?& the agenRwith>hoin I contracted for it to be' trustworthy.

"Wilkes?-in chambers?Milk Street^ But T dicT not xnow that he dealt in such expensive goods. May I ask, not what von paid for the lace, but what you retail it for?". J 'KSertainly." And Mr. Ames named a price which caused the blood to rush into the fa(teof?ltoe veteTffn importer. "Dear man,", said, he; "the lace costs double that sntn at -?i? maker's |auces I j There, is something wrong." ., . ... "May be it is an rmitatipn,'* suggested, Mr.Ames. "? "'. ".' The old merchant shook his head.

"A clerk of yours is doing a little bus? iness ef importing on his own- account.'* "Impossible,!"' "So Wilkes says. Have you a clerk named Willmmsjt? .. _ . r . . Mr. Linwood had about fifty clerks in hw ilrviee/ of whom there were two of that name. "There is old: John Williams, a man of nearly my age, and Reuben Williams, a boy of whom l ean almost say that. I have | brought up. He began here as an er ranoioy, and has worked his way up to a fine position." "W?kes spoke of~a very young man." "Then it must be Eeuben."

He was espe? cially anxious, that his present relations with you should hot be disturbed, as they might be, if yon knew he was doing a rival business on a small scale." This revelation was a, great shock, to the old merchant. For a moment he was silent and thoughtful. Then be '"""How did you geV this' vbWl*ht Wittel - Ti.? M?4Lw>-*Urtm "I cornered him; then I said it was a very serious question, and to avoid trou? ble he had better tell me all about the lace." "Bnt he may have lied to yon." ... "I don't think he did.

"I have heard - you say that if a business prospect can not be built up on the corner stones of integrity and good-will, yon, for one, preferred to be poor all your days." j ''Very good," said the old merchant, reaching forward and laying his large, warm hand, with a slight tremor in it, on Reuben's wrist "And are tyou of; the same way of thinking ?" ."I-*-yes?substantially," said- Reuben, blushing, and slightly embarrassed. .'

Reuben, you'd better tell me all. Let me still be your friend, as I have always been. I cannot bear j that you should be lost!" ? "The old merchant's gentle, entreating words, and his grief, which, gushing into tears, overcame him as he finished, touched the heart of Reuben.

The best morning he again met his employer, and poured out his heart to him in con? fession and sorrow. It convinced the old merchant of his clerk's repentance.

The Southern "people indeed had become accustomed to couple together the three great names, Lee, Jackson and Stuart, valuing each for^.his peculiar qualities* . No . com? parison is intended to be made between these three distinguished soldiers, but it islhteresting to'notice how sharply con? trasted they were in character, and how poculiarly each was fitted for the sphere in which he ruoved and his special func? tions' Lee, the head arid front of the struggle, was the born commander-in chief, fitted for the conception of great campaigns)- ever wide awake, a man of august dignity by nature, calm, suaye, .gcase, t^mg^a^oaLand evil-fori^e with the same imposing serenity; in person, one of the most noble and' graceful men of his epoch, and the finest rider in the ^Southern army; in character, simple, pure, patient,"binding to himself both the love and respect of men.

Srayers on his lips, leaving all to Provi ence; but strikingwith aU the power of his arm to do his own part, and in many w?vs resembling the Ironsides of Crom? well. Stuart, on the contrary, was the cavalier, essentially belonging to the class of men who followed the fortunes of Charles I.?ardent; impetuous, brimming over with the wine of life and youth, with the headlong courage- of a high spirited boy, forid of bright colors, of rip? pling flags, of martial music, and the .clash of sabres?in all the warp and woof his character an embodiment of the best traitsr off the-English cavaliers?not of their; bad traiic*. ?

An outrageous case of superstition is <creatingjgreatre.^citement on Coosaw Is? land, and it is feared bloodshed may re? sult before the interested neighbors are convinced thafi hey are the victims- of. their own blind \kith in the supernatural; It seems that a man named Snipe died a short time ago of consumption, and on ;his death-bed' remarked that if he died Iiis death would be owing to the influence of one Dago Hagood who some time last January came tip behind him and put ting one hand en each shoulder, asked, "Who is it?" a common custom among all classes. Th? circumstance was for 'gotten by bothy-?!ad but Tor the death of Snipe would probably never have been recalled had not Snipe before his death professed to have- had a vision revealing to him that Bagood's playfulness had been the cause of his sickness. . The friends of'Snipe believing that his dying declaration, must be true, sent to . Dr. Johnson to hold an inquest, but the Doctor, after hearing the particulars; de? clined to do so,,1 Snipe's father then threatened that 'if the law would not pun? ish Hagood that he, himself, would snoot him on sight. . The neighbors again came to Beaufort for a coroner, and after con? sultation, Mr..Carleton concluded, for the sake of preserving the peace, he had bet ter'igo;' and went and- held an inquest, b?t! no further testimony could be elic? ited, and when the jury retired to delib? erate he told them that no verdict against Hagood could be rendered, as there was ^nothing^to implk ite-hinvin the death -of Snipe.

God Beholds the;i!ipflons performed by the hands;' He hears-the words that fall from the lips; and He knows the thoughts that dwell in the heart.

PerhapB the best means to guard us against this sin, is to cherish a deep sense pf our duty .to God, a, dread of .vice, and a holy 4&daihicjf folly: j If these feelings are allowed to dwell in our hearts, we. cannot, withbrft.-'pain,"hear that name abused which Angels and redeemed ones iu heaven praise, and which all holy children and good people now on earth hope to praise with' them forever. . > ? j Profanity is a pervaraipn of^he.uawe*' of speech.

Boston's Rattlesnake and Bat.

The snake seemed to think, too, for he darted on the unwilling visi ana caught him by the .neck. The r_., Who had hitherto been running around the .cage trying to get out, gave a sharp squeal as he felt the serpent's fangs, and, twisting himself about, buried his teeth, in ffiie-scaly jaw of the aggressor. The ' snake jvrithed ?nd twistea and rattled* sharp notes of alarm as the rat kept his sharp incisors at work, and before the, spectators could fairly comprehend what happened, the. littfe._ quadruped hfflK shaken himselrfoose an? was hopping'in affright at the further .end of the cage for . a means of exit;' To the surprise of all he snowed no effects of poison, and when the 'snake again made a grab at him he met! his creeping foe half way and snipped, off a piece of- his long forked tongue. This seemed to be rather more, than the Floridian had; bargained for,; and f.he" dragged' himself into a corner/ cast down and defeated."

Chief Justice Marshall was a great man; but great men are' not apt to be proud. : He was not too proud to wait upon him-, self, and the carrying home his purchases. Often would he be seen going home at sunrise with poultry in one hand and vegetables in the other. ; 1 *? - . On one of these occasions, a fashiona? ble young man from the North, who had removed to Bichmond, was swearing vio? lently because he could find no one to - carry home his turkey. Judge Marsball stepped up and asked where he lived. When he heard, he said: "That is my way; I will take your turkey home for you;" When they came to the house the young man asked, "What shall I pay you?" - j . "Oh. nothing," said the Judge, "you are welcome; it was all in my way, and it was no trouble to me." "Who is that polite old man who brought home my turkey for me?" asked the young man of a by-stander. ? "Oh," said he, "that was Judge Mar? shall, Chief Justice of the United States." j "Why did he bring home my turkey?" I ' "I suppose he did it," said the by? stander, "to teach you not to feel above attending to your own business." Infallible Cough Remedy?A ta? bles poonful of -wood licorice, a table spoonful of slippery elm, and a table spoonful of raisins. Cut into very small particles each ingredient. Add a pint of water, let them slowly simmer, or keep hear the boiling point, until the strength of each is extracted. When ready for use, there should be half a pint of quan? tity, as water may have to be added while steeping. Be very particular in selecting the material, that they be of the very best, especially the licorice; which shoulddae-ao moist tha t the outside^looks^ dark, and the wood bright and yellow. The raisins, also, should be moist, and. put into.small pieces, but the seeds;must not be taken put. This has been known to entirely cure: a cough, after months continuance, as the slippery elm removes-1 the infiamation, the raisins strengthen, and the licorice heals as fast as the in? flammation is allayed.
