Thcro was much more than si mere witicism in the remark vd the old baeho lor who had paid attentions to a tnaiden lady * for twenty years, visiting her regularly every night, when rallied rot not marrying. "If 1 were married 1 should, have uohody to court, and no place to go at night." lie had deeply felt the contrast between his own deli j cute and ethereal enjoy incuts, and tho | hard, discontented, Irctted life of too | many married people; and hid answer was irony. Ho saw there wus something in courtship whiuh too ofteu exhales and expires after marriage, leuvin 5 u cold, duli, monotonous burden .Tliero all was beauty a??d buoyancy before. Let us see what that something is. In court feint) nothing is taken for grunted. Uotli parties are put on their good behaviour Love keeps itself fresh and active by constant expression in word ami net But, strange to say, the courtship usual ly ends with marriage. Very snbh both parties yield to the fciiho of possession and the feclt'Jg of security robs gallnui ry of motive and extracts the poetry from the mind. The beautiful tittJn tions which were so pleasing before marriage are ofteu forgotten afterward ; the gilts cease, or come only with the uskiug ; the music dies out of the voice, everything i-^ taken for grunted, and the love that, like the silver jot of the fountain, haps to heaven, denied its natural outlet, ceases lo flow altogether. Then oou.e dull, heavy, hard days, with t.-'.>o uiihappinesses tied together wishing themselves apart and not always content w.th merely wishing. This is tin natural, a id wrong. What married lifo -wauls to give it ? hot tone and bwcofliesS is inoro of the manner as well as the spirit ol thy court i 'g lime. Very much ?.t* tiic pleasure q .1 . -a.:,. ,..^?. i~ .... .1.........ci..i.i. attentions of ifie parties to.bachoth. r Their iu!eetiou voices, itself in all po s ih!o way?;-J'i^'T^-^r^TTelu^^^Vtrir^ with a compliment a nd spoken in ttmdi r tones. ICyery look is confession. rlCyery act is u nuw word in the exhaust less vocabulary t.T love. Kiss and caress, are parenthetic clauses and gestures in the ditrlect of love, and gilts and sacri lices are the emphatic expressions of the Spirit no language can fully articulate and no devotion declare. And it'is tho fact that nfleotion oonfcsxe- itseli" .cou tiuually in look, and word, and act. niakiug the voice musical and the fingers poetic iiu their touch a?d-doing, that makes tho experience so 'beautiful, the only Kden many women ever havo uu earth. Love must, have expression or it will die. li'ean be kept forever and blessed as tho first, b}- giving it constant utter nnue in word and aet. The more it is allowed to flow out in delicate attentions and noble service, the stronger und more sauctilying and more blessed it will be. The house, becomes home only when love drops its heavenly mauiiii in it fresh day, and tho true mariiune vow is made not once for all at the altar, but by loving words and helpful service and dclieatc attentions to the end.? (Jolden Aye.: Anecdote of Rossini. An organ grinder can hardly be class rd among musicians, and there seems to be but little opportunity for a display oi skill in the monotonous round of his performances. Botaiui, however, ap pears to have thought that no one cou nccted in uny with music ought to be wholly mechanical in its execution, and once gave an organ grinder a lesson. It ie said (bathe camo one day upon a man playing "Di Tanti Palpiti'' on a hur dy gurdy. 'J ho performer was astonished to hear a voico from the crowd suddenly exclaim: 'Taster, faster!" "How faster?" says tho organ man. "Turn tho hundle-quiokor 3 it is alto/ro." "Hut, sir, 1 don't know?." "Like this ; 8u? so," und Rossini rushed upon tho organ and ground out tho tune to tho proper time. "Thunk you, sir," eaid the. man : "I shall rppieinbor the lesson ;" i*nd, in fact, on t|?p next day he was beard in tho sanin place, playing "Di Tanti j'alpili," ob he had beep taught. "Rravo, bravo, bruvp !" exclaimed Rossini from a winilpw, und dropped u louis d'or at tho mini's feet. ? I A post-mistress in Pennsylvania em ploys her husbaud as head clerk. Ali Olden Tiino Pastor. The Itcv. John Hancock wars pastor of the church at Lexington, Massa chusetts, whe.ro the Revolutionary War broke but some twenty yours after he was dead. The Rev. Theodore Parker was brought up in the parish where Mr*. Hancock had spent Iiis days, and tradition having preserved some curious i iciden's in his life, Mr. Parker hast recorded them. One 1 act, thus attested, shows the moral power a good man has over his people, even in matters that do not properly bolotir* to his office. Jt often happens in rural p-irishcs,especial ly in newly settled countries, that dis putes ariso among neighboring farmers us to the bouudurj lines of their estates. On such occasions law-suits, hitter pro tracted and destructive; sometimes arise, and not seldom they are handed down from father to son. [t was a practice of 31 r. Hancock to settle such disputed when he could, and in a very summary way. Going to the house of one of the c intending parties, he says to him : ?'Joseph, 1 hear you quarrel with your neighbor Heed " "Why." says .loseph, UWC haven't icaly got our horns together." "Ah, but [ hear you are disputing about your lands. Now take your deed and plan, and come over to Heed's with inc.'] They go together to Heed's house, and there the begins: ' Well. Reuben; I've brought .loseph along with me to settle the quarrel 1)0 tween you. tjet your deed aud your plan." Then he coin pared tho two, hoard the VivrtJ elaius. went to the*?put attended by sonic of tno other neighbors, walked hack and forth looking at the premises till be hud made up his mind as to whit was ri-'.'.it. or about right, and the i h u: - IsJLl uxji ? 1 Take your iixcjrond cut somctfrnkes," The\^\en'^*p?eilily cut. ??Ib'rv'e thi '~Ta"ke down here, and pile some stones around it " It was done. ' Now di ive a stake Q?wn-there and \Mti lUimo stoiiCi avound that." It Was>dOtic as he said Then he would pronounce his decision : "Now It cube* ti and Joseph, your line runs there, aud there let it, mu forever That is your land, Joseph; and that is \our land, Reuben, and let us have no more quarreling about this matter." There was no appeal from this court. Substantial justice was done, litigation avoided, and good IceHog restored. The Theory of Love it is not qiii'c true, philosophic illy, though it may be practically, that ".?1// tlmu^i?. all pillions, ff//,delights, Whatever st?rs this mortal fraoio, Ail are but mini'lorS of Love, Ami feed "bis Bacrcd flame"' Not quite. For instance, try linger* try hunger; try fright ; try love of property; try lo.'e of power! Not quite all, dear Coleridge ! Hut n good many of llicin. Love, lull, complete, pet feet human love, is to feel, and ex press, and receive the counterpart of, all the attractions which make one human being desire another; admiration, re spect, friendship, enjoyment, ByuipatlTy (j. e , co enjoyment,) affection, passion AH these are uiiselli.-h. As for the selfish cnnsciuusocsseas which the wuudcrlul English minnesinger, by a noble material fall.icy included In his assertion, they are comprehended, if at all, only negatively, as crime and misery are included in Christi iu society, to be reversed and eliminated. Um without any one of these unselfish elements, love, though it may be love, is imper fect. Still more, or rather most of all, is any one of them aloUQ tin imperfect love. The oi l snw that ''Pity is akin to Love," is just as true pud no more, as that beauty is conccrneJ with love. The beautiful object must ^be lovable too; the pitied object must be lovable too, fcbeloic there can be a love in con.se quenco of the beauty or of tho pity. When Xerxes cjewclod the beautiful tree he showed how love for a tree is not lovo. Whatever love comes of pity may be foil for u dog. Of sympathy in the sense of co suffering, of paiu by reason of the pain of another, tho like is truo. Whatover love comes of such ?sympathy, may be (pit by man for benst, or by man lor man. It is the sympathy of co-onjoyinont which is a liooesfliry pnrt of lovo. Surrender is the measure of lovo. This is truo equally towards God and man ; tho truth is so deep a3 to be of tho Bubbtructuro of both loves, and it 'is conclusive accordingly of tho cri terion of unsolQshnc8fl .foVjh.umau lovo.? Old und New. ' r . (?Suggestion on Feoding aadi Groom ing Horses.. ; oj Every cavalry-man of any experience in tho lato war can testily,'that tho old theory in regard to green feed hoing injurious to work horses is fallacious. Jit" the animal is unaccustomed to grass, oatiug too much, or hard'oxcrciso soon after eating, will certainly do harm ; hut tf the horse is accustomed to grazing and wotk, lib diet is so healthy^. In our cotton, peanut1; and tobacco country, as a general r liter the horse is expected to be a living skeleton when * the crop is laid by. This'in due more to the small amount of graste and hay al lowed theni than for lack <>f grain. Ask a fhrmci bow is it bis horajis are so thin, and he tells you how much corn they get, not knowing or forgetting, that corii alone will, in a shortjtime, kill tho most hardy auiraal. In the western part T)f this State a horse is allowed a small amount of grain and hay without stint. They keep fat. To Texas, Arkansas and tm frontier the rule is to work nil day and feed to grain, and ?.Maxe all night. Tlioir wot k horses keep fat. I tried this pl.tivio Sussex in ISO"? of necessity, and at tljjfcoloso of the year my horses bad all improved. I must confess, however, (leva was room for it 1 am satisfied froh1 tho trial that crass without stint is 5 bcueQciil as bay. It is a sad truth that i o almost uni versal practice with Ea ern Virginia larmers to this day is; '--b groom the hue not only in his stabfc;' But while he is eating 1 never be irdfehc practice questioned nor did it cvetm/ccur to me it's wiong until I read the tfmiy regula tions.

Give pigs a warm nest and plenty ol straw. Feed horses according to the work they do. Early rising is good; getting at your work early is hotter. Remember that the more work a man does the more he can do. Clean up the premises and male everything tidy for winter. Make your hennery tight and warm, and fed poultry warm food. Sows that are destined to breed next April should he coupled this month. Thiuking is harder work than chop ping, and niuoh more remunerative. Retter hire an extra man than devote your whole time to mere routine work. Shelter saves food. I sometimes docs more than that. It saves the life of the animal. Rio ding ewes and store sheep will winter well on pnon r-tiaw and half a pound ol corn daily. Chatling bay and straw add nothing to their nutritive value, and makes them mine convenient for feeding. When feeding hay it. is a bad prac tice to let the horse stand with a rack fill of h iy before bi n all tilu tiaie. The busiest man is tho m in of most leisure. The indolent man has never time to do anything ho does not wish to do. Machinery docs not do away with the necessity for labor: it merely changes its character. It domunds brain rather than muscle. Animals require daily caro. Make them Comfortable. Feed regularly and liberally, and see that they have a eon .-taut supply of fresli water. (live sheep grain. One pound of pprn per head per .day for Merinos is im aver age allowance. The large breeds may be fed 1 i 11) each per day. A good boy can frequently be obtain ed in the winter for little more than his board. It is poor economy for a farmer to spend several hours every day in do iug work which such a boy eau do pear ly or quite as well as ho can*. A Wife at Auction.

II i jumped tho bidding from 43c to 85, and then raised it to ?8. The auctioneer cried -last call' on that figure, and the widow was 'knocked down.' Joslyn handed her the money, agreed to the previse, and then treated the w'lolo crowd, none of whom had a thought that a marriage would take place.
