Hymen brought bis love-delighted hour, There dwelt no Joy In Kden's rosy bower; The world was sad— the garden was a wild, And man the hermit sigh 'd— till woman smiled." — UAxrnKi.T* "Marriage in like a flaring candle flnucO 1n n YrtnOiWv f>r a-^UTn-m-rr ni^UA, _ Attracting all the Insect# <»f the air, To come and singe their pretty wlnglets there; Those that arc out butt hendsagnlnst the pane And those within butt to get out again." —Pantheon. Old Ilonry K. and his good wifo had lived together in the' bonds of matrimony for forty - years,' .and while it is proverbial that thcycourso ..-of., true love never did ruiLsmogtlllyvit is os)iccially truo the stream of conuuhinl folic- ; tty dqci noTalu'nyti flovf bahnlt' and uninterrupted hv ro<^k or ripple. While; they agreed in the main, yeUvhcro were Rome sliglit ditforoncoi of opinion bo- • twecn them, which souiotimes cast their j ahudowtj over the matrimopinl pathway, as clcmua "flitting 'flCroM the sky cast thcinsliadowB over tho Landscape. Tho differences were few, and Henry thought immaterial . For instance; The old lady was a warm advocate of temperance and total abstinence, While *fl<fnry was not. The old ludv was a pious and exemplary Christian, Henry was not, Tho old lady was frugal and industrious, ami hero again they differed. Furthermore the old lady believed it a duty to work j six days in a week, and rest on tho seventh, while Henry believed that if be rested hard all the six days of the week, thoro was no harm in going n-ibh-ing on tho seventh. With the • exception of these unimportant diffbrenoes, the# agreed as well a* tho average matrimonial couple who are hound together by the ties of past lovs and present law. Henry was an ardent politician, and took great interest in seeing that pYb^VrhtoA were eloetod to oftlec. If a town constable was to bo chosen, Henry was an active canvasser, and on election day, if his favorite candidate was the fortunate man, Henry was so elated, ho generally celebrated his victory -so enthusiastically that late at night ho was so tired he had to bo led hdmo by his brother politicians}

wtdl<Votf the 5S5* ttn claW 1 waii defeated,' Henry wu wont to d»own' his disappniti ttiiL-Xit in the flowing bowl. "the ' OKI 7 lady ; had borne this, her great sdrrow, for two score yaetr, until at'laif forbearance in her mind ceased to behvHtue. So, one cold KovtWbbef »g . — rt nfgbt, Hen r>*" was brought' home in a niora than iiiuaHy sorrow fu I condition, and laid upon his bed, she proeurtd a clothesline, und with It bound him a® tight and fast as ever a victim was bound to a stake. 8fie then put out the firo in the^tove, tinst-b* frngiit not getf6p In lii# sleep and set the house &n fire ; opdned the winduw# that he might not die of suffocation, looked- the door, and relWtfto her lonely couch. During the ni£ht it sfornieU so ,r **Tliat Cen a cblb! uUgtn uodviKtADd Th« 4e'H baAJ>u^luef# op hi# JiApd." In the morning, poor old lfenry was" almost frozen to death, but on making a fnitiiful promise to let politics alone in the fjityre," bis good wife released him. The rheumatism, hoiycypr, had taken so deep a seat j^u hi# .bqn9?i that he was unable to wajk foi; ip.any a day. ^.s soon a* he. could get to town, he came to me to tel) mc a most pitiful tale of his wrongs, and employ me to get a divorce. I tried to persuade the old man * to forget and forgive, but lie said his "rheumatiz" prevented the first, and hit insulu-d manhood the last. So, thinking that in tbe end bo wowld - abandon tbe suit, and to appease him for ihc time being, I filed his petition. Time passed on. There was no hope of peace ; the day of tri.vl came, and tho twelve intelligent jurors thought' the ground for a divor.co sufficient, and so said by their verdict. Old Henry left the qowrt apparently as happy as on j his bridal morn. About six weeks after, the old man came into my office again, looking very much crestfallen. I had heard what had happened ad interim, and was prepared for what was coming. | "Squire, " said Henry at last, "I want j you to get mc another divorce." [ . *•.■■■■ «u T , ll.-Ly, .... ill i ii

you married again after your past experience ?" "Yes, Squire," said he, "I married the old woman over actik." "You did ?" said 1 ; "why, how in the I world did that happen, and with so short a courtship ?'' "TwaVt no courting at all," said the ! old. man. "I'll tell ye how it happened, Squire. One evening the old woman sent mo word that she had got a letter from our son Sam in Kaliforny, and invited mo to come down and would read j it to me. . I wont down. She had a good supper for me. You see, Squire, | I've been keepin1 bachelor's hall sin1 we j parted. Well, nrtor supper she rend i n\v the letter, and then got my old pipe ] -mrrt gin \t toTO*, aYul we si fan d talked j far some time, when I looked up in the | cupboard and I saw tho old woman's j bottlo of tansy bitters. Sho saw mc j looking nt it, and went and tuk it down , and sot it on the table, and told me to take some, it would be good for my rhciunatiz. I took" a drink—there wasn't as much tansy in it ns she used j to put in, for she used to make it bo j ; bitter I couldn't drink it. Wall, it ' lasted kind ogood, ami tbe old woman i : was pleasant — and I took another drink, I and byineby another, and nrter a while ; ! Squire Hobbs and his wife corned in, ' j and we talked and talked about Sam ] i and old times, and I don't jest romem- : her how it was done, but she married j mo over ng'in. But it was the whiskey that dono it, Squire, and 1 believe it was ! a sot ur job, an' 1 won't stand it." I informed him that he could not get j another divorce until some new cause arose, I told him to try and get along, let whiskey alone, drop polities, and 1 thought tbe old woman would not freeze him to death again. A number of months after, I met old Henry looking bright and happy. "Well, mv old friend," said I, "how do you get along ?" "Oh ! fust rate, Squire! fust rate. You see the old woman can't fool me on any more tansy tea. I've quit drinking, Squire, signed the pledge, and my tecond wife and I get along fust rate, better than I did with the rrsT one, a darned sight, Sam's come home, and, Squire, I'm almost awful glad that I took that tansy." 1 hope the women will see no reason in the foregoing anecdote to lessen their efforts in tho cause of temperance, for while drunkenness has been in mv practice the prolific cause of divorce, I never before knew n happy marriage like old Henry1* to result from it. Whether the tansy had anything to do with the result is a matter beyond my 4

The Carson AmAL, ip a recent iwue, days : iSomc weeks ajib John Mackay was sitting In the Gould and Ourrie office reading about the ^Jumping Frog of CalAvera*,'7 when an idea occurred to him thai some «ort of a trick like that -would be a splendid thing to ring in on Maurice Hoefiich, the mining expert. Hoeflich ia around tbe office a good deal, and whenever he takes a lunch with Maokay he ia itire to get ' in some 'sort of a dispute and offer a bet. Ifackay don'tdike betting and frowns it down, unless lie thinks people are trying to bluff him. At last he determined to cure Hoeflich of hia habit and find where tho -weak apot in hia armor d i\wq*-Lu'£ • 1 '■ H_ __v —.1, One day he «aw IIoeflLch on the atoop ' playing with an enonnoua grasshopper, j which he was teaching to jump twenty- • three feet, and it wasn't long before be j remarked to Mackay : TO bet two dollars dot you cand find a hinsect to pect him." Mackay bet ten dt.llars that he could beat it, and Hoeflich raised him Dventy dollars at once. The bet was cloaed at j these figures, and Mackay said he would i i have the lmpper there in a day or ao. j j He then sent a trusted emissary down ! to Carson Valley to secure a contestant I for the wingc 1 steed of Hoeflich. j Tho man spent nearly a week roam'.IIT in f!*rttf>n yfl!W raLrhing hopnors.

Ho finally iient an oflacial report to j Mackay, stating he had caught over throe :- thousand grasshoppers and put thoni j | through their paces. The bast gait any of them had was 17 j feet. He doubted , ; if a bigger jumper could be secured, j On receipt of the letter the Bonanza ! I Prince telegraphed to the rnau to bring him up anyway. The next day he ar- . rived with about a dozen hoppers from j Farmer Tread way's, and Mr. Mackay j gave them quarters in his room as Van- j j derbiit would stable his stud. Each j j hopper hud a cigar box to himself, and ! every morning they were taken out and ! put through their paces. It was im- • | possible, however, to get one to jump j J over 18 feet, although all sorts of invig- j * crmting-food mm* givew tlvem, Mr. Mackay was in despair, but one morning a hopper sniffed at a bottle of i ammonia on the table and immediately i jumped thirty feet. After making a few experiments it w«# found that one whiff of ammonia so enlivened the hop- \ j>ers that they could make jump* that were almost incredible. Next dny j Mackay announced to Uocllich that he { i was ready for the match. The expert j • was ready at 9 o'clock, an hour before j tho time, with his pet hopper. Not . finding Mr Mackay in, he sat down in ! his study, and there noticed the bottle of j ! ammonia. While he was examining it, ; Bridget, the old and faithful domestic | i of the Gould A Curnc firm, came in with : j "Don't he tenhin' that nnmonia, Mr. } Iloettoh, TVs to make Mr. Mackay rs j ! hoppers sprightly.

In ten minutes he was hick, | ; and leaving the >»ottle where he (bund | it got out or the place as fast as ho I could. Mackay soon arrived with half a dozen mining superintendents he had invited up to see him have some fun with \ Hoeflich. They were hardly seated when Hoe- ! flich eatne in with the hopper in a ©i- ! gar^hox under his arm. "I vas a leetle late, Mr. Mackay, but I'm bore wid der hopper and der eoin." » He laid down the money, which wan 1 covered promptly." "Anyone else to ped f11 Joe Stewart laid down $l(Kk

purple mixed wfthlwwter and with flour or plaster, prefer latter. It needs no stirring and is far more quickly ap1 plied and evenly distributed. During I the "present season we have used Lon1 don purple in preference to Paris green* 1 fdr The reasons that it is just as destruct- : ive to the beetles or their grubs, while ; a given quantity costs lees and goes further. To mix the purple with flour I or plaster, wc adopt the following plan : ■ A half-barrel of the plaster ^Ifear) is mixed at once, being as kri g^fcfl^iantity as can be handled convenfantly at one . time. This is spread about threw inches f deep upon a tight floor. The purple is | then sprinkled over the entire surface | in sufficient quantity and an iron-tooth • rake readily makes its way through the mass of plaster on account of the slight resistance it offers, and a thorough ad ! mixture is thus effected in a few min- ; utes. As to the quantity of purple, wo use about on® quart to a barrel of plas j ter. If vised stronger than this it will • kill the leaves. A very good guide a* I to Ktrength is this ; Use London purple enough to color the plaster a just peri ceptihle tint of lilac- A barrel of plas- ! tor thus preji-ared suffices bo dust thoroughly a hatf-acre of vines when i the beetles and grubs arc ao numerous j as to be found uj»on every leaf, — Ex, Gathering Fruits , When a handsome fruit is intended to be shown at a fair, or sent to a friend, j H yyIU w\'\ vcnuvtlu rn *n»t vrfintn - i city to havq its name, or that of some person, printed indelibly upon iia surface. This may be done in several ways but the most common method ts as follows : J ust l>efore the fruit has atI taincd its molarity, out* from tough, thin paper, the fiame pR^posed, anvl i paste this upcAn the side of the specimen ' most fully exposed to the sun. That part of the fruit covered by the paper will aasumo a different color from tho other, and if. when it is ripe, the paper is removed, the name will be found i distinctly visible. Upon oquashe* and melons, names arid figures may be inj delibly impressed by slightly scratching the surface while they are growing. — - a hi —-What ia the difference between a fixed star and a meteor ?
