It seems that one evening a bundle game to the house, marked for him, ud labelled "Private." Of course ?piB was sufficient for female curiosity, and. therefore she indulged in an inspection. llorror of horrors 1 Blan B&tAfbaby's linen, &c., greeted her astonished eyesight, and dreams of " two families" floated through her brain. The husband soon came in, and after tea, when his wife discovered in his eye the treachery of liis conduct, as sho supposed, he took the bundle and went out?but not alone, for tho jealous wife was on his track. The faithless husband little imagined that she who supposed herself so foully wronged was hovering aft or him. lie stopped at the house of a friend, who also joined him in carrying a similar bundle. Tho wife become donbly excited, for tlm nrnfinorfc of hnvmtr r mmrnn. ion in misery did not impress her with the idea of a division of ner grief, but only an addition to it. She followed closely, and soon they halted beforo a small tenement, which they entered. Here she paused to hold a council of war. What tactics to follow she was in doubt, but determined at length to storm the citadel. She knocked, and hastily brushed by a little child, and in a second burst upon the astonished husband, tho embodiment of injured innocence. Her feelings were about to express themselves, when tho scene before her caused her to reflect. A poor woman on a sick bed, a babe not old enough for christening, a child in a crib, and two little girls in a bed met her eye. She read the story at a glance, and returned homo under escort of her husband and his friend, who asdured her that she had discovered the great secret of Masonry. Fbench FouteKess.?French politeness lias become proverbial. I ao not think, however, the characteristic aimed at is well understood, or such.a term would not bo used. If by politeness we mean good hcartcdnc&s, that seeks others' pleasure, it is sudly misapplied. It is the pride of one class to appear civil, well-bred; of the tradesman it is their interest to be almost servile; but outside of these we encounter the rudest beings on earth. A French lady gives you a welcome, and you feel that it is from the lips, however choice the phrase or expressive the manner. You go to purchase an article, and the shopman or shopwoman comes to you with a manner that 6eeins to eav, "Jlere is a dear friend, what can I Jo for her ? There is tho long lost sister just returned from America?the beautiful sister?tho sister not beloved but worshipped. What can be done in this shop for this good relative? Would it be pleasant to take it all?would it be well to lie nothing hut a 6lave to this dear friend?" "Well, after a deal of talk?all on ono side, for you can scarcely get in a word?you purchase some article and take it home to discover that you have been cheated most ridiculously, paying for a worthless thing. The proprietor of a store into which I can look whoro I sit is a fair specimen of this class, lie is a tall spare man, with a black beard oiled to the last extent. Ho has an eternal simper?I cannot call it smile?on his countenance, while his back is made up of hinges. You have only to watch the deception and cheating of a dozen to realize your own case.?Extract from Hell /Smith's JHook. A Contented Fabmsb.?We are glad to find on record an anecdote apparently authentic, of a farmer contcntod with his crop. The Cincinnati Commercial of last Monday, after stating that a friend who lias recently returned from a tour through Northern and Southern Illinois, confirms all the previous accounts 01 the vast graiu erops now on the ground and being gathered in that country, adds the following: Between St. Louis and Yincennes a great deal of wheat is rotting on the ground, for want of labor or machinery to secure it. Oor informant hailed one well to do o'd farmer near Cariylc Station, who, though half a dozen plethoric stacks stood guard round his barn, seemed to have abandoned twonty. or thirty acres of fine wheat, and asked " why iu the worVl don't voa harvest that grain V1 " Lord," drawled out the fanner, looking towards the barn, uL-0-r-d, I've got enough." As little Freddy and his father wore ^ walking alongside the public square, ' on one of our recent windy days, a man's Jiat blew OH, and after ik started , tlio man, at full speed.
