That in such a contest the royal au thor of the proverbs would have come uff minus his 'margin, and been fain to settle at a heavy loss, he had, prob--ally, no more doubt than of any other result dependent on his own financial foresight. '. . The sagacity with which OldsProb abilities, by feeling the pulse of to-day, can tell you what sort of a day to-morrow is going to be, is as n- thing com pared with what -Mr, Hone's skill was in telling the fortune of stocks. When Cockleshell went up suddenly to 200, ' I told you so, said Mr. Hone ; and when asked why he hadn't gone in,' he shook his head sagely, and said he had ins reasons. Mr, Hone had not only a capable lead, but a susceptible heart, and the tf 0 worked in admirable harmony For xample, when his heart bowed in icknowledgcment of the power of wid Grigg's charms, his head quite ap proved the widow being notonly Joung and handsome, but thought to be very rl'h. Mr. IJone had met her in society after her year's grief was up, tod having confidential information as to her circumstances from his intimate friend Polifox, who was himself sweet the widow rumor going so far as to hint they were engaged he dashed in, with accustomed intrepidity, and by a bold stroke carried the day. " It was a little unhandsome, somo thought, of Mr. Hone thus to supplant tho friend who had confided . in him ; but the latter, took it in better part than might have been expected. May bo rumor bad exaggerated the length to which matters had jt gone between iim and tho widow. At any rate, bo yielded gracefully, and tho friendly footing on which tho two gentlemen stood was ; not disturbed fur a mo-s uicnt. It vai but a day cr two before that fixed for Lis marriage, that Mr,- Ilonc . -ttus waited on by hh friend 'Could you lend mo a thousand dol lars fur a f:w days? asked Mr. Poli fox, Littlo favors like this, wc may ex plain, had been frequently exchanged of a lot of the stock in the hands of parties not in the secret; between us, I don't mind mentioning whoit's Chuckaluck & Co, They'll be glad to sell at fifty.' I'm very sorry. said Mr. Hone re- flectively; 'but I'm afraid I spoke a little too fast just now. I fear, on second thought, I shall have imme diate use for all my ready funds.' Don't mention it,' Mr. Polifox re turned. Dare say J shall be able to arrange it elsewhere I'm very, very sorry, Mr. Hone re peated ; 'you know how happy I'd be to oblige you. ' I beg you won't mention it again, said Mr. Polifox, pressing his friend's hand, and taking his leave. Mr, Hone hurried to the office . of Chuckaluck & Co., and invested in Soapbubble every dollar he had in the world it wasn't as much as ! he had the reputation ofhavinr; except bare ly enough to defray his wedding ex penses. ' ' ' ;' Was Polifox such a fool,' he chuck led, ' as to think I wouldn't jump at such an opportunity myself, sooner than help another to it ?' Mr. Hone was a happy man the day he was united to the charming widow by theltev. G.June, D. D. It was, indeed, a day of golden dreams and hopes. To-morrow must bring news of the great Soapbubble corner,'- and with his wife's fortune at command, what might not the future bring forth? ' At breakfast, next morning, Mr Hone eagerly caught up tho newspaper. .'The We don't care to Mr. Hone's exclamation. Mrs. Hone lookel shocked. ' lluined !' groanea Mr. Hone. Be calm, dearest, and tell youl own darling what's the matter,' said his wife soothingly, , Be -calm !

A correspondent thus discourses on the daily occupa tions of some of these women : What do the women do ? Weil,they do everything they can to pass away the time, and JJrigham's household is not a place of idleness. Eme'ine sings :and plays ; Roxy Snow writes poems ; Zina Huntington takes care of the children and amuses them ; Twiss washes and sews ; Emc'linu Free 'takes care of her children, : of whom she has, cr had eight; Ellen Tl)ckwood works em broidery ; others spin, some still weave, others sew. n-ad novels and eleen.

A fellow iz like a bottle ov ginger pop that haz atood six hours with the kork out,- in a warm room it ain't ginger, nor it ain't pop.

Prob ably there is hardly a single one of our adult readers whose own experience would not supply examples of a like character with the above. We have all been so acted upon in our sleep and we account for dreams of the kind by attributing them to sensations con veyed from the surface of the body through the nerves, until the corres poniing impression produced on the mind. What is less easy of explana tion is the fact, hardly less familiar to us,; tliat any very st.ong impressions rtieived during the day may material ly jaffeet the character of our dreams at rnght.

Or the noise and clamor of a mob of rabble, from which we have instinctively run away in the day, shall renew itself at night, their confused forms and d scordant outcries consti tuting the distressing material of our dre:.ms. Dr. Beat tie relates that on one occasion, after riding thirty miles in a ye-y high wind, he passed a night of dreams whicd were so terrible that he foundiit expedient to kepp himself awake, that he might no longer be tor. mented with them. 'Had I been su perstitious, he observes, I bhould have thought that some disaster was impending ; but it occured to me that tempestous weather I had encountered the preceeding day might be the cause of all these horrors.
