Last week occured the. marriage of n M'He ofSfgbteen, of the prettiest figure in the world, an excellent education, much intelligence, and a proud name. She married the Count de P , a diplomatist, forty-five years of much wit and largo wealth, who bad the good sense to perccive that marriage was not always a business transaction. All tbe young female friends of M'lle M -busied themselves much about her corbeille. How would the count chc io the thousand bagatelles necessary for a woman's toilette! The Count was watched. The Becret police of (ho young ladies kept eyo on his movements; they saw him enter no jowelcr's, no 6hawl merchant's, no dry goods stores, and that worried them. When 1 they alluded to wedding presents, the Count 0 seemed not to understand them. At Inst ; they began to suspect him of avarice, and \ pitticd poor M'llc M for making such 1 a marriage. But on the day of the signing cf the con- j tract, the Connt arrived, carrying under his arm n small ebony box, beautifully ornamented. lie placed it on tlio lap of his.-Jbor hrothed, saying,"My dear Blanche, porrait me to offer you what will servV as a corbeille. "So small a corbeille!" whispered to each other the curious and discontented young ladies. "I do not give you," added the Count, "shawls or dresses, which I should have badtly selected." "What does he give lierthen, the miser?" murmured the young girls. "A book in whioh to set down her expenses, no doubt." "A talisman, with which you shall have all you desire."" "A Talisman! judge the effect produced , by tlie word. Tbe girls surround the blush- I ing Blanche. I "Open it! let us see the talisman." 1 Trembling Blanche opened the bor. It , contained a hundred notes of a thousand , francs, and placed upon them was a little key. Everybody was delighted. A hun- ) dred thousand francs! What generosity ! "Mad that you are," said the Count, "vou 1 are in ecst3cies before these rags, aud say 1 nothing about the talisman." < "How ! by the talisman do you not me au , the notes themselves!" < "Not at all. The notes are ft cushion for 1 the talisman. The talisman is the key." 1 "This key! Is it a magic key ?" "No, it is simply the key of my money drawer." Tbib modest and unembarrassed liberality 1 produced a very great effect, and the future , Countess is regarded as quite a happy wo- < mau.?Boston Gazelle. * < The Wealth of octr Statesmen.?Jef- i ferson died comparatively poor.

Madison saved money, and was comparalively rich. To add to his fortunes, however, or rather to those of his widow, Congress purchased his manuscript papers, and paid thirty thousand dollars fbr them. James Monroe, the fifth President of the United States, died so poor that his remains found a resting place through the charity of one of the citizens.

It frequently however, has a physical cause, and a peevish child often need iirecting more than correcting. Some shildren are more prone to show temper than others, and sometimes on account of the qualities which are valuable in themselves. For instance, a child of active temnp.rmfint KPnaitirn fnolinnr fin/1 I -w O I'U'J'"8cs is more likely to meet with constant jars and rubs than a more passive child ; and if be is of open nature, his inward irritation is immediately shown in burst of passion. If you repress these ebullitions by scolding and punishment you only increase the evil by changing passion into eulkiness. A cheerful, good-tempered lone of your own, a sympathy with his trouble, whenever the trouble has arisen from no ill-conduct on his part, are the best antidotes. But it woiild be better still to prevent beforehand, as much as possible, all sources of annoyance.' Never fear spoiling children by making them too happy.

Nothing of cbaracter'is really permanent but virtue and personal worth, ^fbey remain. Whatever of excellence is wrought iotQ. the soul itself belongs to both worlds. Reaf'goodneas does not attach itself merely teirthis life; it points to another world. Political or professional fame cannot last forever; but a conscience void of offence before,God and roan, is an inheritance for eternity. Religion, therefore, is a neccssary, an indispensable eie'merit in^ any great human character. Tjaere is.no living without it.
