A rni*MD who was witness to the scone, describes the following ludicrous incident which occurred on board the night train from New York. Two married couples took eats in the cars at Now York, bound for Boston, in closo proximity, and about eight o'clock they both indulged in balmy sluui- I bers, the heads of the wives resting upon their husbands' shoulders. When the cars reached Worcester the gentlemen stepped out. and the ladies apparently exhausted. I slept on. The delay was brief, and on ro- ! entering the cans, the husbands, whoso eyes were scarcely opened, exchanged seat*, and in a few moments resumed their natural position, and wore soon in the land of dreams. At Frnminghnm the cars stopped again, when one of the ladies said : "Will you have time to get mo a drink of water hoie?"? The affrighted gentleman, not recognizing the music of his wife's voice, exclaimed :? "By heavens, have I made a mistake? This isn't you, Tilly ?" "No," exclaimed the lady, "and you ain't my husband." "Perhaps we had tetter exchange Rents," exclaimed the husband in the scat immediately in the rear, who had awoke, "for there's a slight mistake here." The second Indy, too fatigued, did not awake, and as the temporary husband endearored to shift his burden so as to move, she merely ejaculated, "Do keep still."

A great proportion of the inmates of the asylum for the deaf and dumb, the blind and idiotic, are found to be the product of intermarriage of cousin*, Truth Stranger than Fiction, Last winter a gentleman in New York, connected with the Mission Sunday School of Dr. Alexander's church, found rv little girl selling candies and apples on the corner of the Park one Sunday morning. The child was scantily clad and the morning was , bitter cold. The girl's appearance, in other respect*,, indicated suffering, and perhaps abuse. The gentleman invited her to go to Sunday School. The child was willing, but could not go, because the wornao with whom she lived obliged her to sell on Sun day* as well a9 other day*. The evident distress of the child led the gentleman to make Inquiry. It was found tlmt she had ' neither father nor mother, (both having died of ship fever,) that the woman with whom she lived, who was a regular old harridan, had no legal claim to her, perhaps bad stolen her, autf Jbat there was gross cruelty and hardship in the whole business. The teach- i rs of the Sunday school, for a while, paid i iii? old wOHia-i fifty CvHUa Burvhy, (which ww about what tiie girl could make by selling,)and thus secured for her the privilege of; attending the School. Hut when ii leaked out that there was fraud us well as cruelty in the caw, they took steps to have Iter placed under the care of tho law. She w;is sent to the asylum, and tbenco to a farmhouse in the country. In.the latter place, tho lady to whom she was bound out was so muclvstruck with her manners and character, that she questioned her closely about her reminiscences of early childhood. The little girl recollected that she had come from . England in a ship with her father and mother. She reoolJeeted Imr grandfather's name, and some other circumstance*, by which eventually the town and country were ascertained, The lady then wrote to England, and sooa received the joyful intelligence that the grand-parent* were both living in Heitlag, Kent Co., England.

"An Observer," a Washington correspondent of tho Richmond Enquirer, makes mention of Gen.

"Work out your own salvation," says the inspired Apostle to the Gentiles, Labor Hisdixeoted. Tmc most superficial observer ennnot fail to have perceived, at times, tbe truth of the adage, that some men will thrive whero others would starve. In no class is this fact more apparent than among farmers. The reason why there are so many thriftless farmer.*, lies not so much ie their lack of industry, as in the lack of perception and calculation?perception of the means necessary to produce a given result, with the least possible expenditure of force. Wc know of some farmers who toil with [he most indefatigable industry from year to y ear, and-vet thoy remain as thriftless as ev r. The tact is, their labors aro misdirected, riiey take everything the hardest way.? I'hey aro sure to do two days' woik to nc omplish every job, where, with a little cal ulatiou, a little figuring, a littlo counting of he cost, one day's exertion, performed in the ight way, would have done the job.
