Courtship alter Marriage.
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

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

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

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

".?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.?

(?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

Thieving in High Lifo;
"Much talk has bt on created Irre in

words, a fashionable thief. It appears
thiit it few day s ago a lady of beauty and

colony, entered the Magazine du
Louvre, and not being able to express
her wants in French, was directed to a
.saleswoman who spoke English. At tho
request ot the customer, a large assort

None being satisfactory, the lady to>k
from her pocket a yard of d- Alone m,
saying she desired to match the piece.
The saleswoman, thinking it old that
she should not have | roporly explained
her wish at first; looked with suspicion
upon ih* affair, but having no proof wa
?bligcd to go in quest of the desired
article. Uu her return she immediately
detected tho loss of a valuable piece of
lace Tho inspector was summoned, the
lady arresti d, and the missing lace found
in her possession. On being further
examined, it was discovered that she

him. "It is all very well t.. bo killed,"
said the famous essay ist, "but 1 object

A Competent Juror Under the Law.
? An cxcliango r,ivcs the following :
Questions alternately by the Court,
(ho States Attorney, and the defense, as
usually answered by 'an intelligent
juror.'
, 'Are you opposed (o capital punish
inont ?' ?
'Oh, yes?yes, sir.'
'If you were on a jury, ihcn, where a
man was being tried for his life, you
wouldn't agree to a verdict to hang him?'

'Have you ever heard of this case?'
'I think I have.'
'Would you decide, if on the jury

'Perhaps you don't understand ;.
would you decide according to evidence.'
'Evidence.'
'Ifitv.'.as i:s your power to do so

HINTS FOR WINTER.
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.
Aboit a wook ago a widow nam?d
G at h tier, living in Sixth Ward, mot a
male acquaintance on (}atroitstreet,'and
complained to him that sho was out of
Dour and wood, und almost discouraged,
He tojd' her she ought to marry.;.agaiu,
and she said ?ho conld uot liud a h us
band. 'I'll sell you at auction,' he eon
'tiMicd/'aiid we'll put in::t proviso- that
the hitfhf.-sl bidder shall Cun t yo-t '? for a
week iu order that you m ly know him.
Tho womun laughingly consume 1, and j
the man mounted a box ami began cry
ing out. A crowd assembled, and ho
stated the (acts in the ease, saying tli.it
he had kuuw Ir.:r for. years; knew her to
bo industrious an 1 of good character,
and thou ho opened the sale. Bidding
was lively, and everybody was in ^ond
humor. In the crowd an old bachelor
named I'eter I). Joslyh', boarding on
Maple street, and ho was the only ono
who took the joke as a real fact. 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. One
did, howevor, take place yesterday
rnorniu"", after the terms- of the proviso
had beenluithlully carried out. An 1
while it is quite certain that Joslyu's
had found a good helpmate, the bride
?Xroom's IKieud's say that be is sober,
steady. jo >1 tempered, aud well off.

hovered there, coming low down 'cir

blindfold person in "blind man's bluff,''
and keeping up a hoarse cawing and
general racket beyond description. It
was plain enough that of the entire
Company each individual crow was not
