FRENEY i Miscellaneous. or belong e:ui Tree Hall; , do not meddle with ichat does not to you. About twenty years ago there lived a singu lar old gentleman in the Hall among the Elm table was I J I w .v. a . 1.. 1 . n . . Ilia .

This turned out to be a sad r-rmir.- for under the dish cover was a heap of very light feathers; part ilrnvn un itv lV:r fll room, a iid James in his fright, puting down the cover hastily, puffed the rest ot them oft the table. What was to be done? Jame3 began to pick up the feathers, one by one ; but the old gentleman, who was in the ad joining room, hearing a scuflle, and guessing the cause, entered tne room 10 uie consternation-of Jame3 Turner, who was very soon dismissed aa a boy who had not principle enough to resist even the slightest tempta tion. When the room was once more arranged, Thomas Hawker was placed there until such time as ho should be sent for. No sooner was he left to himself, than his attention was attracted by a plate of tine ripe cherries. Now i fit t C Thomas was uncommonly lona oi cnernca, and he thought it would be impossible to miss one among so many. He looked and longed, and longed and looked, for some time ; and just as he had got off his seat to take one, he heard, as he thought, a toot coming to tne door ; but no, it was a false alarm. Taking fresh courage, he went and look a very fine cherry, for he was determined to take but one, and put it in his mouth. It was excellent ; and he then persuaded himself that he ran no great risk in taking another ; this he did, and hastily popped it into bis mouth. Now the old gentleman had placed a few small cherries at the top of the others, filled with Cayenne pepper; one of these Thomas had unfortunately taken, and it made his mouth smart and burn most intolerably. The old gentleman heard him coughing, and knew very well what was the matter. The boy who would take what did not belong to him, if no more than a cherry, was not the boy for him. Thomas Hawker was sent about his business without delay, with his mouth almost as hot as if he had put a burning coal into it. Wm. Marker was next introduced into the room and left to himself; but he had not been in the room two minutes, before he began to move from one place to another. He was of a bold, resolute temper, but not overburthened with principle ; for if he could have opened every cupboard, closet and drawer in the house without being found out, he would have done it directly. Having looked round -the room, he noticed a drawer to the table, and made up his mind to pet-p therein ; but no sooner did he lay hold on the drawer knob than he set a large bell a ringing, which was concealed under the table. The old gentle man immediately answered . the summons, l entered the room. William was so startled at the sudden ringing of the bell, that all his impudence could not support him ; he looked as though any one might knock him down with a leather. The old gentle man asked him if he rung the bell because he wanted any thing? William was much con lusea, ana stammered, and tried to excuse himselt but all to no purpose,, tor it did not prevent his being ordered oft the premises. Samuel Jones was then shown into the room by an old steward ; and being of a curi ous disposition he touched nothing, but only looked at the things about him. At last he saw that a closet door was a little open and thinking it would be impossible for any one to know that he had opened it a little more, he very cautiously opened it an inch further, looking down at the bottom of the door that it might not catch against any thing and make a noise. Now had ho looked at the top, in stead of the bottom, it might have been bet ter for him, for at the top of the door was fastened a plug which filled the hole of a smait oarrei ot snot. ie ventured to open the door, then another, till the plug being lied out ot the barrel, the leaden shot began chair- John had his eyes in his head as well as others, but he had more integrity in his- heart ; neither the dish cover, the cher ries, the drawer knob, the closet door, the round box, nor the key, tempted him to rise from hi3 seat ; and the consequence was, that in half an hour he was engaged in the service of the old gentleman at Elm Tree Hall. John Grove followed his old master to his grave, and received a large legacy for his up right conduct in his service.

Thiugs certaiujui 1 8-i l . The year 1841 will be a very eventful one to every body who gets married. Thi-niio-hnut the whole course of the vear whenever the moon wanes the nights will grow dark. Those who have debts to pay, and no cash will lose their credit. It is probable that if there is no business doing, people will complain of haid times, but it is certain that those who hang them selves will escape starving to death. Many a man will grow rich this year in a dream. If the incumbent of a fat office should die, there will be a dozen feet ready to step into one Dair of shoes. He who marries during this year will run a great risk that is, it he does it in a hur ry He who steals a match, will make tattlers gossip, and get himself into a scrape. He who is pennyless this year will not grieve much at the fall of stocks. He who grows without growing wiser, will be a long time coming to the year of dis cretion. He who wants to borrow money, will know the value of it. He who laughs at his own dull jokes, and hunts for a cat wkh three tails, or becomes an applicant for office, will rival houest Dog berry, and be content to " write himself an ass." There will be more books published this vear than will find purchasers more rhymes written than will find readers, and more bills made out than will find payers. If a man builds a house this year without emmtincr the .cost, he will know more at the end of his undertaking than at the begin- inir.

Many a fond fool will jump into a honey pot, and find it mustard, without being able to say, with the ily, " I'm off." Many things will be wondered at thU year, and turn out not to be miracles. Finally we are of opinion, that this will be a wonderful year just like all that have gone before it. Politicians will make tools ot themselves, pettifoggers will make fools of others, and women with pretty faces will make fools both of themselves and others. The world will go round and round back to the place from which it set out and this will be the course or. many a man who should be up and doing. There will be a great cry and little wool, as at the shearins ot pies or a session of Congress. Byron said t( he would rather have a nod from an American than a snuffbox from an Emperor."

An anagram is the dissolu tion ot any word or sentence into letters or it3 elements, and then making some other word or sentence from it, applicable to per sons or things named in such original word or sentence. There are words of this discrip- tion, both of modern application, which ex hibits coincidences that are truly surprising and afford a very peculiar fund of amusement The following is a selection of some of the best transpositions: teract it? Exposure to the action of frosts and winds, rains and suns, will do much to wards effecting the desired change. Farmers might do well to have three or four years' supply always on hand, and then not use that which has not had three or four years expo sure to the weather. But it is not necessary to wait thus long in all cases before we avail ourselves of the use of this article. "We can, by the use of animal manure and lime, neutra lize the acid of the muck in a few months or weeks, and thus more speedily enlarge our mauure heaps. Let the dune, while green, be mixed with muck, because the ammonia which passes off n its first stages of decomposition, will then be saved and used. But do not put your ime in for several weeks, because its action upon dung that has undergone considerable change, throws off ammonia much faster than from fresh dung. The faster the ammonia is generated or set free at any one time, the more thoroughly it will penetrate the muck. The principal use ot the lime in this pro cess is, to generate ammonia rapidly from the dune. This ammonia is the strong smelling effluvia or gas, that goes off from the fermen ted duno- heap. I he same substance is metimes called hartshorn, and is used in ladies' smelling bottles. The great object is to generate or liberate this under such cir cumstances that it shall pass into muck and counteract its aid. Uriue will answer the same purposes of dung in this process of neutralizing acid. Ashes will answer in the place of lime.

He was about three score years of shot falling upon this pan, made such a clatter age, very ricn, aua somewuat ouu in nis tmuus; but for generosity and benevolence he had no equal. No poor cott ige stood in need of comforts which he was not ready to supply ; no sick mau or woman languished for want of his assistance ; nor ever a beggar, unless a known impostor, went empty handed from the Hall. Now it happened that the old gentleman wanted a boy to wait on him at table, and to attend him in different ways, for he was very fond of young people. But as- much as he liked the society of the young, he hid a great aversion to that curiosity in which too many people are too apt to indulge. He used to say, "The boy who will peep into a drawer will be tempted to take something out of it ; and he who will steal a penny in his youth, will stenl a pound in his manhood." This disposition to repress evil, as well as to en courage good conduct, formed a part of his character ; for though of cheerful temper, and not given to severity, he never would pass over a fault, till it was acknowledged or re pented of. No sooner was it known that he was in a servant, than twenty applications j his reply. want ot were maae lor th. situation : but h determin ed not to engage any boy till he had in some way ascertamed that he did not possess a curious, prying disposition.

J. he old gentleman soon came into the room to inquire what was the matter, and there he found Samuel nearly as paie as a sheet, fcamuel was soon dismissed. It now came to the turn of Harry Roberts to be put in the room. The other boys had I .1 x.

On the table stood a small round box, with a screw top to it, and Harry thinking it contained something curious, could not be easy without unscrewing the top ; but no sooner did he do this, than out bounced an artificial snake, full a yard long, and fell upon his arm. He started back and uttered a scream, which bjought the old gentleman fo his elbow. There stood Harry with the bottom of the box in one hand, the top in the other, and the snake on the floor. " Come, come," said the old gentleman, handing him out of the room, " one snake is quite enough to have in the house at a time ; therefore the sooner you are gone the better;" with that he dis missed him without waiting a moment fo Elements of Physiognomy.

It is the remark of Leigh Hunt, that it sweetens the air, rejoices the eye, links you with nature aud iuunocence, aud is to love. And if it cannot love in leturn, it cannot hate you; it cannot utter a hateful thing, even for your neglecting it; for, tho' it is all beauty, it is uo vanity; and, such be ing the case, and living as it does purely to do you good and afford you pleasure, how will you be able to neglect it?

Upon his answering this question, the mer chant made a calculation, and showed him that his rum amounted to more money in the year than his house rent.
