'I d- not know how it is," said Jane; "hut we spend a great deal more than r. we v.?-: i to aoj we send our children to expensive schools." Tlut U entirely a mistalje.

Rouseau armroves of it." 1 Though J&ne did not entire'y adopt s. Reed's ideas, sh( thought, with I, that tbey were paying an enormous o for schools; and both she and Frank demands for money increased, that py might just as well go to cheaper lools. The penalties of living be nd the means most generally fall jpon the children of the family; not iat parents love them less than other ppurtcnances, but because deficiencies ere arc more easily kept out of sight. ' e ppeak not of dress or food, but of ducation. Many declaim on tho expense of schools, who forget that teachers are qualified by devoting the best part of thir lives to the subject; that the edu lca;ion of children cannot be taken up 0,1 at once merely for a living; but that, to bo successful, it must be founded uptn higher and nobler motives, and j deserrcs a compensation equivalent to ! tbe preparation and importance of the subject. Mrs. rvCcd thought otherwise when the found how little trouble" it was to educate her childrcu, with a gkl hired for an assistant. Those who saw not the interior, spoke of her as a most wonderful wamon. Perhaps there is no class of men less liable to extravagance than physicians. Their gains are slow and laborious, and they toil for daily bread from hour to hour. No laige sum comes in, like a lawyer's foe. for a few words of advice; and no lucky speculations on coffee, in digo, or cotton, raise hi.ii, like a mer chant, from moderate means to suddeu affluence. But the seeds of luxury and extravagance may be scattered every where; and his own moderate desire, had perhaps made him less vigilant. Though Jane did not entirely trust to Mrs. Reed's opinions as to teachers and schools, on many other subjects she yielded implicit defence. The con sequence was, that, from a simple-dressed woman, she soon became a fashion able lady, bonneted and Mounded in the extreme of fashion, and, cveu to her own surprise, a fine stylish-looking woman Frank, who had hitherto only appreciated his wife's virtues and amia ble qualities, began now to pride him self on her elegance The moment this sort of pride takes possession of a hus band, he delights to bang his idol with finery and trinkets. How much "( LQnCt---fC"l7ftT-; caieCm mingles with this tribute, depends on i - '-j, ,,.fftl.. in the resent instance there was an uncommon decree of af- fection. For many years they had been all the world to raeh othor hnd strnr. x.a oabliin the Parlour, with strict economy in tiCU uycii tuuiuaiaiit'. iiluucuw ujvlujj ; and thankfully and even now, Jane sometimes doubted whether their en - Urged income had increased their hap - niness. She still, however, continued her charities; and one day, when she with her woman of all work, and 3Iar aptdied to her husband for a sum to tha's little girl, everything went smooth- & J, was surprisca wncn ne re- i i pueu, "lieany, uauc, x uuuuuu uuuiu such a donation." "Not afford it!" exclaimed she; "why, it is no more than we have given for several years." "But our expenses have greatly in creased " "And so has our income," said Jane triumphantly. Frank looked thought ful, and shook his head. "Well," said Jane cheerfully, "we have been talking about getting a ceatre-table; now sup pose we give that up, and devote the , money to charity?" "As von rdease. said rrank coidlv. j r 7 J Jane was silent for a moment, and I tbea gaid. V0. dear; it is not as I "A centre-table was your own pro posal," said Frank. "I know it; but I should not have thought of it if Mrs. Reed had not said it was necessary." "Mrs. Reed seems to have become your oracle, with' all her folly. Theo it was only because she said so that we were to have a cen try-table?" , "No, Frank; not entirely. I thought it would be very convenient; and then it gives a room such a sociable look; be sides, as we had a centre-lamp " "I don't see how that helps your ar gument; the table doesn't hang to the lamp, does it?" "No; and I begin to think it is of no consequence. Indeed I should never have thought of it, if it had not been for Mrs. Heed." "Mrs. Reed again!" exclaimed Frank peevishly. "I rcaly think that woman's acquaintance is a curse." Jane made no reply, but her eyes filled with tears. "Since you are so unwilling to give up either the centre-table or your donation you shall have both," said Frank; "so pray go and select one with your friend." "Can you think me so unreasonable?" replied Jane. There was a pathos in her voice that restored her husband to his good-nature. Frank had set Jane a task beyond her strength. The centre-table was purchased, and then an elegant centre vase. Mrs Reed was not the only fashionable kdy that had taken up Jane. There was Mrs. Prandish, whose hus band was said to be worth a million, and who had a right to spend what she pleased. Nothing could be more flat tering than her attentions. It would S2em as if wealth diffused some of its gol len glare among the onbokers; else why is so much deference paid to it? In vain we say, philosophically, it is droe, or experimentallity, it benefits not us. Still, the rich have their humble imita tors, and manmon its worshipers, Frank became the companion of tho wealthy; and it was necessary that he should not disgrace his intimates by a penurious j style of living. He and Jane were tn- vifWI in .llnrifirs and joireRs. Such con- ptit invitations must be returned, and they be:an to civc entertainments. Hitherto, the little Misses Fulton had ; make the distinction which custom and kept their seats at the dinner-table; but: fashion warren t of not. at home, as their dinner was at a most inconvenient ; meaning engaged.

From fraiik-hearted, open confidence in all around him, he began to be tena cious of civilit-; thought such an one looked coldly; it must be because they had not returned their call, or some other reason as imporUnt. Then he sometimes repeated his jests, which Jane felt were sarcasms. "How long it is," said Jane one mor ning, "since Uncle Joshua has been here!" "I suppose," said Frank, "he feels an awkwardness on account of our dif ferent rank in life." "Oh no; that is wholly unlike him. Suppose we send and ask him to dine to-day?" "Not to day.

' Jane began her preparations e for dinner. Her constant change of ser vants, and increasing trouble with; them, often made this an arduous task. She was soon in the midst of glass and chi na; and, assisted Ly her chamber-maid, began to lay the table. Thyliad'got it nearly completed, with its5 platea, wine-glasse, and. tumblei'3 all in a row; when she was alarmedf by aloud ring ing at the door. The chamber-maid was despatched, with. strict injunctions to let nobody in, but say she was no$ at homo. There was evidently a par ley, and the step of a person was heard approaching. With a sudden feeling of mortification at being caught, Jano rushed into the closet, and closed tho door. The sound " of Uncle Joshu' voice struck her ear as ho entered. "Are you sure she is not at home?'? said he to the girl. i i "Oh yes, sir; quite sure. .'I'saw her put on her things and go out." , ; : "How long has she been gone?" , "Fully an hour," said the girl; who, as these kind of people often do",1 over acted her part. - "Then probably, she will bs back soon, and I will wait for her." , "Oh no, sir; she said she would not be back till near dinner-time." ... i - " Why, you look as if you were going to have a company of aldermen to dine?' The girl answered in a simpering tone, "No, sirouly two or three friends' Jane, during this conversation, felt a consternation that disabled her from acting judiciously -which would have becX-to have coma out from her hiding- lace,'and tell the simple truth.' But she kuew her "uncle's straightforward I mnd, and shu r was- sure he. would not . "'o j ' grasped the handle. "Sir, s rl exclaimed the girl, "that i is the wrong door.

But ho was not slow of com prehension; and the truth rushed upon him, greatly exag gerated; for he believed it wa3 a contri vance to avoid seeing him. He stood silent, with his eye fixed upon her. "Dear uncle," said she, "I thought it was a stranger. I did not fcoow it was you when I ran into the closet." "Silence!" said he; "no more false hoods. Begone!" turnirg to the chamber-maid.
