MADAM SCANDAL.
A long time go, in the western part of Eng
land, there lived an aged couple, whose time had
passed away since earljr youth, in the every round
of farm life, and who were never known to have
the least ill-feeling toward each other siuce the
time when good old parson Ileriot had united them
in the holv bond of wedlock twenty-five years be
fore. So well wa3 the fact of their conjugal
happiness known, that they were spoken of far
and near as the happiest pair in England. Now
the Devil (excuse the abrupt mention of his name,)
had been trying for twenty years to create what is
called a ''fuss in the family," between these old
companions. But much to his mortification, be
bad not been able to induce the old gentleman to
grumble about breakfast being too late, or the old
woman to give a single curtain lecture.
After repeated efforts the devil became discour
aged, and had he not been a person of great deter
mination, he would doubtless have given up the work
in despair. One day, as he walked along in a very
surly mood, after another attempt to get the old
lady to quarrel about the pigs getting into the
yard, he met an old woman, a near neighbor of the
aged couple. As Mr Devil and the neighbor were
very particular friendai, they must needs stop on
the way and chat a little.
'Gotd morning, sir," said she "and pray what
on ctrth makes you look so bad thismorning; isn't
the controversy between the churches doing good
service:
"Yes."
"Isn't Deacon W. making plenty of bad whis
key?" "Yes."
"Well, what is the matter, my highly honored
master?"
"Every thing is going on well enough," replied
the devil, "but, and lie looked as sour as a mon
key on a crab-apple tree, "old Blueford and his
wife orer here are injuring the cause terribly by
their bad example, and after trying for years to
get them to do right, I must say I consider them
hopeless."
The hag stood a moment in deep thought. "Are
you sure you have tried every way?"
"Every way I can think of."
"Are you certain?''
"Yes."
"Well," replied the, "if you will promise to
make me a present of a new pair of shoes, in case
I succeed, 1 will make the attempt myself, and see
if I can't raise a quarrel between them."
To this reasonable request the devil gladly as
sented. The old hag went her way to old Blue
ford's houpe, and found Mrs. Blueford busily enga
ged in getting things ready for her husband's com
fort on his return from work. After the usual
compliments had passed, the following dialogue
took place:
"Well, friend B., you and Mr B. have lived a
long time together."
"Five-and-twenty years, come November.' re
plied Mrs. B
" "And all this time you have never had a
quarrel."
"Not one'
"I am truly glad to hear it," continued the hag;
"I consider it my duty to warn you, though this
is the case, you must not expect it to be always.
Have you not observed that of late Mr B. has
grown peevish and sullen at times?"
"A very little so," observed Mrs Blueford.
"I knew it," continued the hag, "and let
warn you to be on your guard."
me
and
the
Mrs. B. did think she had better do
so,
asked advice as to how she should
case.
"Have you not noticed," said the hag, "that
your husband has a bunch of long harsh hair
growing on a mole under his chin on the side of
his throat?"
"Yes."
"These are the cause of the trouble, and as long
as they remain you had better look out. Now, as
a friend, I would advise you to cut them off the
first time you get a chance, and thus eud the trou
ble." Soon after this the hag started for home, and
made it convenient to meet Mr B. on his way.
Much the same talk in relation to his domestic
happiness passed between him and the old wo
man. "But, friend Blueford," said she, "I think it my
duty as a christian, to warn you to be on your
guard, for I tell you, your wife intends your
ruin."
Old Mr B. was very much astonished, j-et he
could not wholly discredit her words. When he
Teached home he threw himself on a bed in per
plexity, and feigned himself to sleep studied
the matter over in his mind. His wife, thinking
this a good opportunity for cutting off the obnox
ious hair, took her husband's razor and crept soft
ly to his side. Now the old lady was very much
frightened at holdinr a razor so close to her hus
band's neck, and her hand was not so steady as it
once was; so, between the two, she went to work
very awkwardly, and pulled the hairs instead of
cutting them off. Mr B. opened his eyes and there
stood his wife with a razor at his throat. After
what had been told him, and seeing this, he could
fiot doubt but that she intended to murder him.
He sprang from the led in horror, and no exj l.ina
tion or cutreaty could convince him to the contra
ry; so from that time there was j:iw, jaw, quarrel
and wrangling all the time.
With delight the. devil heard of the faithful
emissary, and sent her word if she would meet
him at the end of the lane, at a certain time, he
would pay her the shoes. At the appointed time
she repaired to the spot, and found the devil at
the place. He put the shoes on the end.of a pole,
and standing on the opposite side of the fence,
handed them over to her. She was muoh pleased
with them, they were exactly the article.
"Uut there is one thing, Mr Devil, that I would
like to have exnlaincd: that is. whv did vou hand I
them to me on a stick?" j
"Vrv paaw tn PTnI:iin " rprdiod he Anv nnA i
j i r j
who bus the cunning and meanness to do as vou
have done, don't get nearer than
iwcnij ieei oi i
j
me. .so saving he fled in terror.
After a while the old woman died, and when
she applied for admittance to the lower regions,
the devil would not let her in, for fear she iui:ht
dethrone him, as the was so much his superior.
JSo the old woman is jet condemned to wander over
the world, and creating quarrels and strife in
peaceful families and neighborhoods.
. Would you know her name?
, It is Jiadam Scandal. When she died the
joung Scandals were left orphans, but the devil,
in consideration of the past services done by the
mother, adopted them, and so you sec he is father
to that respectable class called scandal mongers.
Reader, don't you know some of the family?

ABOUT THE SLEEP OP CHILDREN.
One of the first rhyming couplets learned by
most of us, was: "Early to bed, and early to rise,
makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." This
sound? plausible, and if the - whole couplet were
followed, it would be well enough; but the practice
, is: go to bed late and get up early. An abun-
dance of sound sleep is very important to the pby
eical and mental health of.childreu. While under
the age of six years, 11 hours of sound sleep should
be taken by them every nigh:; from six to twelve
years of aire, 10 hours are needed, and from 12 to
j the full growth of the body, not less than 9 hours
of sleep are absolutely necessary. After that pe
riod 8 hours may answer, thoujrh 9 are better.
A Kure receipt for securiu" restless sleep and
the "kicking off" of bed covers, is to allow chil
dren, or grown up people even, to eat hearty sup
pers. A liirht diet ot bread and milk, say a cup
full not a great bowl full is all that a child
needs, and all it should have after dinner. Give
them this at 5 o'clock P. M., and accustom them
to eo to bed invariblv at G to GJ o'clock. Summer
and Winter, and they will sleep Koundly durin
alJ the everiinjand through the night. After the
age of three, it is better not to accustom children
to sleep during the day. Then, by making it an
invariable rule for them to go to bed at 6 or 6 J r
M.. thev will ouickly drop to sleep. Were there no
considerations of health, the convenience of hav
ing children "out of the way" during the evening
would be a sufficient inducement to this plan
Dangerous Counterfeit. The Columbia
Guardian says: "We were shown a very danger
ous counterfeit, in the shape of a 320 bill on the
Peoples' Bank of Charleston. The plate is a fac
simile of the genuine bill, but rather lighter, giv
ing the bill a grayish appearance. The signatures

arc badly executed. This bill was lettered A, No.
928, and dated January 4, 1859. As this is the
first of this denomination on the Bank, our friends
should be watchful in receiving any of that de
nomination. We further learn that 810 bills on the Mechan
ics' Bank of Augusta are in circulation.
