'.Thestory iis toid by a correairftnck'nt of litid and Water!, and may he briefly utn:iiaritl ns follows : I)r. Dace, an arlent naturalist, well known in tlie West of Knjrlund, purchased n cently ,tw fine old Knglfeh black rats. These interesting animals managed to escape from the Doctor's premi sm, and fook nj their residence with' a gentle man in the neighborhood a Mf. .Spokes m who w as an iutinutte fiiend of Dr. Dace, and what wus of more importance to the ruts, an enthusiastic bainler of bantams, .j The rats kiHil a iiumln-r of bantams, and wefe ultimate- kiilitl bv a celebrated rat-butcher named IJill Furatt.

After a great deal of wrangling, Mr. Spokes with drew his demand for "consequential damages. and accepted payment for the fowls actually destroyed. Facts fob ' th Single. A philosopher has lately Drought to light some curious so cial statistics compiled from tbe records of eleven years in France, Belgium and Holland, relative to the longevity of married and single men, wbich furnish fresu proofs of the danger of living single. It appears that; married men. between the ages of 25 and 30 years are far more apt to live than unmarried men, tbe ratio of deaths being in favor, as four to ten and a half in every thousand persons. Here is a powerful argument for eat ly marriages in law of self -preservation he becomes their advocate; but a little further devejoneiuent or the records show that at tbe same age wid owers die at the rale ol twenty-two ' in every mousand, Deing twice as perishable as their unmarried brethren. When the age advances to between thirty and thirty-five years the case is reversed. Married men die at tbe rate of eleven and single men only five in every thousand, the latter, nearly .recovering the ground lost in the previous semi-oecade Dn fortunate widowers, however, are still at a- a r . a m m :. oisaavaniage, aying ai me rate ot nineteen in every thousand. " These figures open a wide field for drawing Inferences and moral lessons. Evidently dangers hedge about the life of man. but' the chief and most apparent warning con veyed by tbe facts of the case is necessity of a man's carefully preserving the life of i wife, if be has one. since her loss increases by about fourfold tbe imminence of an end to bis own career. - 1 Women, who are born to be chosen, not to choose, should be born suspicions, calculating, and selfish.

Tl.at fact was ia Mr. All-ton's mind, a barrier between them. Kute, though she loved him with all ber heart, was not willing to marry him" without her father's consent. So,; one Unutiful October evening, we find them Lid ding each ojher farewell, for Henry bad deter mined to go to Califumiii for a few years to HLtk a fortune that he mipbt return wealthy and claim Kale as his bride. "And you will not forget me Kute?" Le said, in a voice full of lore. ' "Never," A kiiw, and they parted. Henry for his new home, und Kute for Iter room.

Wages ar.e high, and lie is getting a good raUry. He has very hard work to do, but he does it cheerfully," t Link ing, no doubt, of that beautiful, virtuous crea ture, that awaits Ms coming at home. Rut this noble young man is not nllowed the opportunity of making a fortune. His own deur sunny Suuth, the land of hi birth, h envelop d in a terrible war. Nrlh (.'aro !iua calls him to tbe field, and Henry Young is not the, man to refuM. to obey the simnnyns of his native Ssate.

But after the fights at Gettysburg, the hope- that the Confederate cause would succeed grew dimmer every da v. 1 lie liospituis in Kith moud were crowded with wounded and ('yirg men. It was a sad pleasure t Kate to wait upon these brave soldiers, all of the spare time ;lie hud. H.iw bravely they stood all of the pains of amputation, &c! How cheerfully they dicta ted their farewell letters to those loved ones at hojue I Lute one evening, iu February 1865, Mrs. Moss entered the little room iu which Kute taught, just as she was ubout to dismiss the children. ' - " 1 have just been to the hospital and it makes my lieart sad to see brave soldiers die. One especially interested me, for he kept nitir- memi?. half unconsciously, ivate,on Kale: she said. , What is bis n.ime !" asked the young gov erness, excitedly. tilonel Henry onng, was the reply. Half an hour later.

"Uui nenry, nenry, live, live ior my sake 1" she exclaimed. A smile, a bright and happy smile, came over his face as be said : " 1 will live for you, Kate." ' Aod, sure enough, he grew better every day after that, to the treat surprise of every one. The 'surgeon smilingly said tbat it was ".mm Kate who aid tt, and complimented lier on being, as he said, " a much better doctor than himself.' When the war. terminated, with all of its evil consrauences. Colonel Younz was a has- band and Kate Alston was bis happy bride.

It was divided into farms of convenient size, at the distance of two, three, and five miles from the Mansion House. He visited these farms every day in pleasant weather, and was constantly engaged i in making experiments for tbe improvement of agriculture.- Some idea of tbe extent of his farming may be found from the following facts-: . . In 1787 be had five hundred and eighty acres in grass; sowed six hundred bushels of oats ; six hundred acres with wheat, and as much more in corn, barley, potatoes, beans, peas, 4c His stock consisted of one hun dred and forty horses ; one hundred and twelve cows ; two hundred and thirty-six" working oxen, heifers, and teers, and five bnodred sheep.
