Neighbors.
uNo indeed, wo are not. going to
live on gossiping terms with those aronnd
us. Our neighbors are not t ? .
know all abont our affairs," exclaimed :
- a Is* ! i* . II
an aristocratic, genteel rumuy irom trie ;
city, us they settled in a reinutu village. 6
"In the city, people d<? net know e?'en c
those who live next door to them"?to Y
be sure, therefore it is not genteel.? 11
But I have heard its arrant gossip be- 1
tween those who were obliged to cross .
Union Park or Washington Parade
Ground, in order to meet, as I over c
have heard between those who only ^
lifted the latch to the little wicket gate,
and traversed the "garden patch, and 1
entered the back door and seated *
themselves by the fire nans ccrtnwnie. 1
No they were not going to be ill bred, 1
and countrified, and have "neigh- .
bors" if they did live in a village.? 1
They happened to move into a "neigh- "
borhood, were gossip had never en :
tered?where the people were more
than ordinarily kind and *vinputhiz- !'
ing, and 3*et inclined to "mind their ^
business;" so when the good wives ^
had pnt on their best bibs and tuckers,
and called on their new neighbors and
pronounced litem very pleasant, and ^
found their calls were not returned,
they quietly let them alone.
Not many weeks passed before sick v
ness, the ditregarder of all aristocratic ?
distinctions, entered the domicil from ^
which the neighltors were excluded.?
The doctor's carriage was seen every
day at the door, but it was no concern
of theirs. They might not be welcome,
if they proffered assistance or enquiry ; *
so they stayed away. The family
watched all day by tne couch of 8v.tiering,
ami the night brought them no rest,
for their were none to take their place s .
and with motherly and sisterly sympathy,
share their weariness, and help to*
bear their burthen?. Then came
Death that stern leveller, and bruised
their hearts and lowered their spirits,
but to whom could they look for the 0
balm which soothes, if it cannot heal, *
for the hand which kindly binds up the 1
wound, if it cannot assuage all pain. e
Tltose who have ever lived in a conn- a
try village, need not be told with what 1
delicacy and alacrity all these offices '!
are preformed by neighbors, nor how
much sweeter is it to depend on friend- a
ship than on menial service, in such an ?
honr of affliction. Some mother or e
daughter softly enters and assumes all "
care, and attends to all arrangements, '
leaving those who are stricken, to the
indulgence ot their sorrows and to
profitable reflection; and how olten *
nave I heard families in cities mourn, j3
that for them there was no such solace?no
such friendship. But those
who prefer gentility to frank and cor
dial intercourse, should not lament q
their condition. .
Sickness and death teach many a e
lesson which no other teacher could im- tl
press on the heart; and when our city |j
friends had been humbled under the o
rod, they sought sympathy which they (,
had rejected, and cultivated the friend- ?
ship which they had despised. They
found they could live in friendly communion
with those around them with- b
out descending to vulgar gossip, and r
that those who live in palaces, and *
dress g^rgeonslv, are not the most a
sure to prove ministering angels at the *
couch of suffering, or the inoet ready o
So pour balm int" the wounded heart, a
Henceforth they hod neighbors in sick- h
nsu and health, aud proved good c
country neighbors themselves. d

Jack, who had been accustomed to
?bey as well as see his master obeyed,
iglit or wrong, promised obedience,
md they went into church.
A seat was provided for the cornnodore
near the preacher's desk, and
rack, left alone, atter looking round

Samlx) was a slave to a master who
vas constitutionally addicted to lying,
ianibo being strongly devoted to Ins
nastcr, had l>y dint of long practice
node himself an adept in giving plans'
bility to his masters largest stories.
One day, when the master was enertainiug
his guests in his customary
nanner, among other marvellous facta I
ie related an incident which took place,
n one of his hunting excursions.
4 I tired at a buck," anid he, "at one
inndred yards distance, and the ball
taased through hris left hind foot, and
hrough his head just back of bis ear."
This evidently producing some little
lonbt in the minds of his guests, he
ailed upon Sambo to corroborate biiu.
"Yes, massa," said the almost con>nnded
sieve, after a moment's hesltaion,?"me
see de ball hit'im. Jes as

rHhout farther hesitation; bat when

"Yes, certainly."

Mosquitoes bit him everywhere, no

Wuen an Arab woman intends to

she comes the night before to

she kneels, and prays him not to be

she fears lie will be offended and

donkey laken with two goats* skins of

to pour on" the grave the water,
to keep the first husband cool under
tho irritating circumstances about to
