MISCELLANY.
THE BACHELOR AND BABY.
"What shall I dp 1' dnd the old
bathelor stamped about the sMting room
in a perfect rage of doubt; looking first
at the napping bab In the Utile willow
cradle, and then at the busy French
clock on the matiile shelf;
"As sure a-my name is Joseph
Phelps that little, two-fisted, largelunged
nephew of mine, is about waking, and i
wants one whole hour of the tithe in
which its mother appointed for her return.
Whew ! I actually sweat thinking abou
it. What can I dd with itjhow can I
treat it to sugar, whai d'ye call'ems, or
hold it, or trot it or do anything with it.
At this juncture a faint Tfr all 1 from the
baby receptacle brought bachelor Jos
eph to his tabs. With riii energy and
alacrity that would lint illy become a
husband or a baby tender, he commen
ced rocking the cradle ; sending the
baby into tremor of efcicks and squalls,
Backwards and forwards, frb'm one side
of the pillow to the oilier; the foUnd red
face rolled ; the infant's fists were
clenched with a force that pbrpled them ;
while from the white plump throat, come
rt cry that set, the bachelor wild with
fear. - ., . t
A pain Joe Phelps looked at the clock.
What in the deuce can I do 7" he
exclaimed, viewing woefully the little
inflamed face before him.
He sat down in a big chair before the
baby ; spread a double cradle quilt over
his knees, and with a look of terror on
his face, proceeded to take the baby
from its resting place. He drew the
young hopeful into his lap, as neat as an
bid lady would a pocket handkershief,
with his thumbs and fingers. A fresh
yell from the rosy mouth of the baby was
the only expression of thanks as he
fcommnccd ; the never out-of-ashion
baby trot. '
, 'It must Ikj that something is prick
ing him. Shoo ! Shoo 1" said Joe, com
mencing a search for the aggravating
pin, tht vdi driving the child into such
a ra'g'e'. But no pin was to be found,
and he made an attempt to turn baby
6verf but oh the Clumsiness of his fingers:
fjhe little ell-like form fell out of his lap
to the floor sending forth a rty that
was louder, clearer, deadlier than be
fore." ,
'Lord save me I I've broke its neck?"
was the exclamation as he picked the
baby up, and hi the agony or his des
pair, tried to qilict him. A thought
8tmek Joe. He saw a basque hanging
against the wall of the adjoining bed
room, and with a smile of delight upon
his countenace, he went for it. Sure
enough, there it was. stuffin, boddice,
and all a real monument of feminine
ingenuity. He was wild with jov.
He pinned it over his coat, and fastened
the sleeves behind him. lie took baby
Aixd laid its head against the false breast
work. I -
"Shades of Southern plantations and
cotton factories !" exclaimed Joe, as baby
rooted his nose into it about a mile, then
cuddled for a snooze. Then the bachelor
.commenced singing :
"Women are all a flevtlng show
For man's dcloaton riven ; ' ,
Whan ailed with brand and stuffsd with tow
Tb-y look quila well
A tap upon the door stopped Joe in
(he midst of his song ; and before he had
time to disarray himself, the door was
opeued, and a roguish, laughing pair of
eyes peeped in upon him.
Your sister is not at home, is she chir
rupted the visitor.'
"No ma'cia," stammered Joe, growing
very red in the face ; "and I have turned
nurse."
Miss Hays lauzhed ; offered to relieve
him of his charge, which he willingly
consented to; sitting near by, the while,
contentedly watching her. one man
aged baby to a charm, without the
basque, and Joe was captivated.
Joseph Phelps married Fanny Hays ;

Many troubled with ringing ia the ears and head
v-henasleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at
sudden sounds, and bashfuiness, with frequent
blushing, attended sometimes with derangement
mind, were eared Immediately.
. A CERTAIN DISEASE, ,
When the misguided and imprudent votary of
pleasure finds he, has imbibed the seed of ibis
painful disease, it too often happens that anill-tlm-ed
sense of shame, .or dread of disco very., deter
him from applying to thoae who, from education
and respectability, can alone befriend him, delay
ing till the constitutional symptoms of this horrid
disease make their appearance, such as ulccrstrd
sore throat. diseased nose, noctural pains in the
head and limbs, dimness of eight, deafness, nodes
on the ship bones and arms blotches on the head,
face snd extremities, progressing with frightful ra
pidity, till at last the palate of the mouth or the
bone of the nose fall In. and the victim of this
awful disease becomes a horrid object of commi
seration, till death putaa period to his dreadful auf
ferings, by tending him to "that bourne from
whence no traveller returns.'' ..To ,Ench therefore
Dr. Johnston pledges himself to preserve the most
inviolable cecrerr; and,' from his extensive prac
tice in the first Hospitals of Europe and America
hcean confidently recommend a safe and speedy
cure to the unfortunate victim of this horrid -disease.
Itiaa melancholy fact,- that thousands fall
victims to-this-dreadful complaint, owing totheun
skilfulness ol ignorant pretenders, who, by the use
of that deadly poison, mercery, ruin the constitu

country, and the darling of his parents, .sJionid be
snntchedfrom all prospects and enjoyments of life,
by the consequences of deviating from tbe path of
nature, and indulging in a certain, secret habit.
Such persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE. V
Should reflect that a sound rnnd and body are the
most necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness, .Indeed, without these, the journey
