TIic Adva ii to ge of it. The day had been set, and the young man was happ-. But his father failed in business, and he collected together all the pink love-letters, the lock of hair the faded violet, and started for her father's "mansion He was high minded and honorable, and be felt in duty bound to release her from the en gagement. Ycfbc grew faint as he was .ushered ; into the parlor. Such love as his wouldn't stay crushed." ' George! dear George !" she ex claimed as khe entered the parlor and seized his hand." "Arabella, I am . here !o do my duty " ho said," as he ose up. " - - "Wwhat's the matter V she asked. 4II -haven't you heard of of my father's failure !' ho inquired, his hea.t beating painfully.

To anake' a good after-dinner speech re. quires a special talent. A man may be eloquent on paper and seady and witty among, hw friends, but the mo ment he rises to propose a toat or to return thanks he generally manages to make a mess of it.

She used to meet him at with a kiss, and a smile like the gate morning light; but now she comes to the door in a dingy calico wrapper and shoes down at the heel, shades her eyes with her band, looks earnestly, to make sure it is him, and as he walks up to the house, tired and care-Oom, inquires in a voice that seems to need oiling: '-Did you bring that butter V The spirit of true religion breaths gentleness and affability, it is social, Jrind and cheerful; far removed from that gloomy, illiberal superstition and bigotry which cloud the brow, sour the temper, deject the spirits and impress nnrosity on the man ners. '- , . He is good that does good to others If he suffers for the good he does, he is better still; and if he suffers from them to whom he did gold, he is arrived at that, height; of goodness; that nothing but an increase of his suffering can add to it; if it proves his death, his virtue is at its summit, it is heroism complete.

The merry side of this great and glorU oas Centet-nial year will receive special attention in the bright columns ol America's favorite humorous paper. Ihe publishers ot Wild Oats point with pride to the wholly unexaatnpled success of their paper, and, pledging themselvts that it shall be in the luiure even better than in the past, they ask continuation ot that kind patronage which has placed it al the head and front of American humorous paper?.
