A FASHIONABLE WIFE. A BRIEF STORY WITH A GOOD MORAL. (Yuu know, my dear, I am a spoiled child ; I must have my way this time,' said Mrs. Finlay, a beautiful bride to ber adoring husband. It was a matter of consequence to Finlay that she should not have her own way this time. It was the first lime her will?that odious, positive word?had made its ippearance, and now was the very time to crush, to subdue it, before it had Herculean strength. Finlay was a young lawyer of fine talents, just getting into extensive practice ; it was necessary that he should remain in the city, but a strong necessity was upon him, his cara sposa would i'o to the country, to be present at the wedding ol a friend. Bui dearest, you know I have several important cases upon the docket, Hiirh are just about to be tried ; my client <1 be dissatisfied,'said Finluv, in that mild tone of entreaty which should find its instant way to a woman's heart. N'imporle; let them go. you will have something besides clients to live upon, you know, some ol these days.' There was much pride, little sense, and great want of feeling in this speech. Mrs. Finlay's - - -j i i.: i: I..I ... o. expectations oepenoeu ujhjii a kiiiu inuuigcm iuther, during whose lifetime they could not be realized. Finlay let it jar upon his heart-strings and vibrate to the very core, but he excused it, or set it aside. 'Shu is a beautiful thoughtless creature, she cannot be unfeeling.' To the country they went. 'Well,' thought Finlay, ! shall have exquisite pleasure in pointing out to my Caroline some favorite scenes, came striking views, which may have escaped her notice. We must sometimes make sacrifices to those we love; leaving town, after all, was a matter of little consequence.' The boat glided almost with the rapidity of lightning over the smooth, deep Hudson. Come upon deck t nroune, we are nt-uriug the Highlands, never did they look so splendidb ' It was the momentary glow of radiant coloring which a happy heart gives to nature, that at this moment rested so gloriously upon the picturesque Highlands. 'Come, Mrs. Finlay,' said Finlay, carefully wrapping the shawl about the faultless firm of his beautiful wife. Why (Jeorgo, one would think I had never been up the river before in iny lift.', said Caro. line, then in the midst of an animated discussion with a fashionable friend, upon the spirit of their respective milliners.

The repulsed Finlay left her, and took his seat upon the deck with a sigh. 'Out of fashion,' thought he, and his noble forehead was wrinkled with frowns, his proud lip curled, and a momentary flash illuminated his dark eyes with unwonted fire. 'Out of fa-hion ! Those lowering, frowning palisad this dark river, yonder rising moon !' ' into a reverie, long and deep, for nr ft not enjoy these things alone. he cou At the ond of Iy, "Silt! cenuiuiy lias bfiisiuiinj, uci unuu is plastic, I can mould it into any form, and make it a complete reflection of my own.' Conjugal affection is a tender plant. The first rude shock sometimes scatters its fair leaves to the four winds of heaven. If but one leaf be torn away, all others are loosened.

In all his visions of success his honors were to be laid at the feet of Caroline. He entered aramupon his laborious employment. He was for a time entirely devoted to business, and lost all care and reflection in the close attention which he gave to his profession, al duties. But 6oon he needed relaxation; some place to which he could resort, to spend a few hours in pleasure. Home did not afford it The spoiled, heartless Carolina was engaged in an endless round of fashionable amusements. When at home, she was weary, vapid, peevish. She needed the excitement and admiration of a crowd to give her animation. It was not worth while to exert herself to please ono, and he only her husband. Thus driven from that home, which should have been the haven of rest and peace, Finlay fled to the society of the gay, dissipated young men. Soon his office and law books were forsaken. His clients' frequent knocks were unanswered, they became less and less frequent, and at lenglh ceased entirely. They had lost their advocate, their councillor. He had rendered himself unworthy their confidence. The highly gifted, ambitious Finlay had become a drunkard! After a few years, Caroline returned to her father's house, because her husband was no longer able to support her; she returned a faded, disappointed, wretched woman. The viper sting of conscience told her that she bad brought all her misery upon herself. Why will not woman learn her own happiness ? Can one whose every thought before ?._ !* ! t ?* _ . marriage in setnsimess, can sne ever sacrifice her own interest to the will of another? Yet submission on her part, will alone insure domestic comfort. Pride lifts itself in opposition to this doctrine, crying out, 'equal rights.' But down with the rebellious spirit; her suggestion amounts to this. "Hotter reign in hell than serve in heaven." Woman, too, must be man's intellectual companion. Without this domestic life becomes so dull, so insipid, that to a man of refined taste and cultivated understanding, it is intolerable. The weak idolatry of a fool is valueless and disgusting to a man of sense, hut (he affection of a high-minded, virtuous woman, is a discrimintiliitrr i n f??11 i iro n I Jpi>n aftpntinti U'hii*)i it itf """'"61 |- i ? an honor to gain, and a pleasure to cherish. FIRST MARRIAGE. Tfie following amusing sketch of "horn to good luck," is said to he from the pen of the fa cetinus Samuel Lover: Lady C. was a beautiful woman, hut lady C. was an extravagant woman. She was still single, though rather past extreme youth. Like most pretty females she had looked too high, and estimated her own loveliness too dearly, and now she refused to believe that she was not as charming as ever. So no wonder she remained unmarried. Lady C. had about five thousand pounds in the world?she owed about forty thousand pounds; so, with all her wit and beauty, she got into the Fleet, and was likely to remain there. Now, in the time I speak of, every lady had her head dressed by a barber, and the barber was the handsomest barber in the city ol London. Fat Philan was a great admirer of her sex, and where's the wonder? > ?onrn Pot ii'ntnn Frishnmn. ft U'.U OI1C VeTV fine morning when Philan was dressing her O ~ captivating head, that her ladyship took into her mind to talk to him, and Pal was well pleased lor lady C's. teeth were the whitest, and her smile tho brightest in all the world. " So you're not marrted, Pat," said she. "Pivil an inch, ypr honor's ladyship,' says he. And wouldn't you like to he married," again asks she. Woul^a duck swim ?" " Is there, any one you'd prefer?" Maybe, madam," says he, 'you have never hoard of Kathleen O'Reilly. down hevant Doneraille??Her father's coasinf to O'Donahoe, whoso own steward to Mr. Murphy, the under agent to my lord Kingstown ; and?" ' Hush," says she, "sure I don't want to know who she is- Hut would she have you, if you asked her ?" " Ah, thin, I'd only wish I'd he after trying that some." " And why don't you ?" " Sure 1 rn loo poor," and Philan heaved a I prodigious sigh. 44 Would you like to be rich." " Does u dog bark ?" " If 1 make you rich, will you do- , , 44 Mille murther ! yer horn*. tell you. talizing a poor boy." <?' don't be tan* Indeed, I'm not,' ' How would youj*ld lady C. "So listen. 4 Ah, thie .iice lo marry me ?" Russia ' my lady, I believe ihc King o would be nroud to do that same * alone a poor divil like Pat Philan." "Well, Philan, if you'll marry me to morrow ? I'll give you one thousand pounds." dl " Oh, Whiluhoo! whilahoo! sure I'm mad o Id enchanted by the good people;" roared Pat it, dancing round the room. " After the first day of our nuptials you <n<i<t never see me again, nor claim me for your wile.' " I don,t like that says Pat, for he had been ogling her ladyship most desperately. " But remember Kathleen O'Reily. With the money, I'll give you, may go and marry her.' That's tra*," said he, "hut then the bigamy.' "I'll never appear against you,'says her ladyship. "Only remember you must take an oath never to call me your wife after tomorrow, and never to go telling all the story." "Divil a word I'll iver say." " Well, then, says she, "there's ten pounds. Go and buy a license, and leave the rest to nu-; and then she explained to him where he was to go, and when he was to come, and all that. The next day Pat was true to her appoint, meut, and found two gentlemen already with her ladyship. * " Have you got the license ?" said she. " Here it is, myJady,' says he, and be gave it to her. She liqjkdedit to oae of the gentle, men'^rtio viewed it attentively* Then calling in ber servants. She turned to the gentleman, who was reading:?"Perform the ceremony," said she. And sure enough in ten minutes Pat Phi 1 an was the husband, the legal husband of the lady C. " That will do," says she, to ber new hnsbaud as he gave hern hearty kiss; that'll do. Now, sir, give me my marriage certificate.' mi tt . I _ J;J 1 I 1 lie old genueman aia so, auu uowing respectfully to the five pound note she gave him. he retired with his clerk ; for sure enough, I forgot to tell von he was a parson. " Go and hring me the warden,' says the lady to one of her servants. 44 Yes my lady,' says she, and presently the warden appeared. 44 Will you be kind enough,' says Lady C., in a voice that would have called a bird off a tree, "will you be good enough to send me a hackney coach ? I wish to leave this prison immediately. 44 Your ladyships forgets, "that you must pay forty thousand before 1 can let you go." 44 I'm a married woman. You can detain my husband, but not me," and she smiled at Philan who began rather to dislike the appearance of things. 44 Pardon me. mv lady, it is well known you are single." ii?? ? " 1 tell you I am married ?" ; u Where is your husband?" ' 'SsK*-'" ' There, sir !" and she pointed to the astonished barber; "there,he stands. Here is my marriage certificate, which you can peruse at your laizure. .My servants yonder were wit. nesses of the ceremony. Now detain me, sir, one instant, at your peril?" The warden wasdumfounded, and no wonder. Poof Philan would have "spoken, Tint tieTtBl*r party would let him. The lawyer below was counselled. The'rcsult was evident, Iu hall an hour lady C. was free, and Pat Philan. her legitimate husband, a prisoner for the debt to the amount of forty thousand pounds. Well, sir, for some time Pat thought he was in a dream, and the creditors thought they were worse. The following day they held a meeting, and finding they had been tricla-d swore they'd detain poor Pat forever. But as they well knew that lie had nothing, and would'nt leell much shame in going through the insolvent court they made the best of a bad bargain, and lei mm uui. Well you must know, about a week after this Paddy Philan was sitting by his little hre, and thinking over the wonderful things he had seen when as sure as death, the postman brought birn a letter, the first he had ever received, which he took over to a friend of his, one Ryan a fruit seller, because you see, ho was no, great hand at reading or writing, to decipher it for hint. It ran thus: " (Jo down to Doneraille and marry Kathleen O'Reilly. The instant the knot is tied, I fulfill my promise of making you comfortable for life. Hut as you value your life and liberty, never ii-t-i-, ? .?,i h oreaine a syuaojc ui wu?u uus paowu, uuu^iuher you are in .ny power if you tell ihe story.The money will be paid to you directly you inclose me your marriage certificate. I send you j?")0 for present expenses." Oh! happv Paddy! Did'nt he 6tart next day for Cork, and did'nt lie marry Kathleen and touch a thousand pounds ? By the powers he did.? And what is morp, he took a cottage, which perhaps you know, is not a hundred miles from Bruffin, in th? county of Limeric ; and i'fax he forgot h(S first wife, clean and entirely, and never told any one hut himscif, under promise of secrecy the story of his first marriage.
