What on earth is it? .Sally! I say", '".P'raps it's the ile; some folk doesn't like it. How de do, Cousin Peter?" It wasn't Sally the chambermaid. I knew that at once. But turnine. 1 was nuz zled to pes who the stranger was. To my knowledge I had never seen him before, or I never should have forgotten him. Long and lark, with straw-colored hair and blue eyes like dull glass beads, with a nose long enough to have made one apiece for three md i nary faces, and with apparently two joints in it, both moveable, and a long ex pause of yellow cheek awful to behold. At tired also in the blue, long-tailed coat and brass buttons, the yellow vestand tall 'white hat of the stago yankee. I verily believed that one of my theatrical friends had play ed a trick upon iue, and was visiting uie in masquerade. ' 'How du you du, Cousin Peter?' ' fain the presence again; nud I replied, upon' my guard against a practical joke: "And pray, what am I to call you. Sir?" "Lor', don't stand 011 110 ceremony; I ain't stuck up il I am forehanded, .'hist call me "Cousin Silo," like you used ter." 'J hen I knew him. It was Cousin Silas Peck, whom I had not seen since we played marbles, and robbed the orchards together, down in Maine. Ho had always had those eyes, and that nose, probably in his cradle, but he wore roundabouts and was three feet high when we parted.

Most suioih- I thought of my landlady's bod rooms du ring midsummer, and groaned "Yes:" "First families. Fifth Avney folks and them, ye know?" "A few," said I. "Wa'al, now I'm up in the world, I ought to know 'em, oughtn't I? Tell you what, Cousin Pete beg pardon, Peer, I'll stay with you a spell, and you shall show me round." "The accommodations," I began. "Don't make no apologies. Slop' in an ile puddle many a time; kirn to rough it at tbe wells," said Cousin Sile; aud what more could I say? Therefore ho staid. We dined, we smo ked. Then I began to look at the time piece. 1 had an engagement at Miss Wick ett's; but to take Sile there in his blue coat, white hat and brass buttons, with such an odor of oil, was impossible. I adored Miss Wickett; I fancied 1 had made some advan ces toward her esteem. Po present a cousin like Silas Peek might ruin llicm at once and furever. At last I ventured: "Not having your baggage with you, I presume I dare not hope for your company to-night, Cousin Silas? ' "Eli! Lor' yes. Don't you sec I've got on my Sunday buttonnost? Paper collar in my pocket, wrapped with a tine-tooth comb in a clean handkerchief. Lenin to uiuke yorself slick easy at the ile wells." So in despair I dressed, perfumed my kerchief with Night Blooming Cordis, and a coptcd Silas Peek's company with a groan. .Dm-way up Broadway was ifiarkod by the sniffs of pedestrians against whom we brush ed, and ejaculations of "Awful!" "Hor rid!" ' 'Kerosene, ain't it?" etc. They had a party at the Wicketts an el egant, select anair, graced b ti.'o belles and exquisites of the creme (h la crente. As Si las took his hat.' on and ran his lingers I through his hair,.I felt mv heart sink. Ho seemed such a greasy wretch. I expected to be ordered f rom the house when I said to Mr. Wicket aside: ,. "Mv dear Sir. 1 have taken the liberty of bringing with uie a distant enm-in ofliiyowu, Mr. Peck a ahem a rather unsophisti cated gentlemen a in fact, just from bis extensive oil farm, where he has amassed a fortune, and, I fear, learned to ueglect the observances. I a hem.". To my astonishment. Mr. Wiekctt shook me by the hand. "Noapologios," ho said. "Thcso busy audjirnspcrous persons are privileged; Wis don't expect of thorn what we do of others. Introduce me. All kindnesto mo. of course. T felttrrate- fuh So I introduced Mr. Peck, and went to una JHss Wiekctt, who was divine m scarlet and white Mowers. Howl adored that, girl I llnw I IV jisted on her smiles ! Howl i (juiced in thoseqiiiet moments when 1 dared to say sweet nothings to her when she looked at. me as only s'iu could look! Every man lias been in love once in bis life, they say. If so, every man can recall his own experience, and know bow I regarded MissW ilbelm'ra Wickett. Words cannot do justice to my emotions. In her presence I forgot my cousin Silas Pock for awhile. But soon, in tho midst of the silence in which we listened to Wilhcl inina singing, I beard his voice, and, turn ing, saw him. Ho stood in the midst of a group of gentlemen, all with their faces very red with excitement and their eyes wide open with surprise, and held forth ou the subject of oil. How bis tract spouted, Sir, as ef eleven thousing whales were underneath the avth. How folks went on their knees to get the first supplies of that, ile. Dow be verily believed that, diggin' down six feet, you'd come to a great vat fijll, nil- ready to bo scooped up; ond how ajl the ile strcems and ile wells jest had their rise in Peek's farm, and nowhetcolse, -by jingo! And when she had done singing, Wilhel mina i mean Jlr. W lekottihnfr.fl tVn... the crowd, and, seizing her hand, drew her towards Silas with the words. "My hive, I must; m:iKC you acquainted with Mr. 1 e-.-k, one of our oil pioneers, who has been liv ing us somo very valuable information on tun subject of oil lands. Poor W ilheliuina ske who shuddered nt the unpleasant Derfume of a mastoid. :m.l coum not walk in the garden until the gar dener had uprooted thai obnoxious weed how I mtied her us the atniosiilicm of mt. horrible nil cousin surrounded her on the velvet Mc-a-ttM! They had invited Mr. Bungalee and. .Mrt. Trumps, of the firm of -W ickett, Trumps and Bungalee, to Bidet us; and the soever .mtion ran on oil so intirely that it took away my appetite. But who should caro for food who could sit. near Wilhelmina Wickett, and feel the folds of her silken robe biu.h his knee who was absolutely permitted to pass her plate for more turkey, and see that she had just a morsel, more gravey?" Not I for one. A delicious cer tainty that my day-dieanis were to be ful filled, and that I would one day call Wilhcl lnina niy own, possessed me. That night 1 drew her little note of invi tation from my bosom, and, kissing it, re peated, alluding to the signature: "llemain Wilhelmia Wickett. Oh, no! no! not long, for I shall make you Wilhel mina Paragraph. Does she not suiils upon my oily cousin for my take?" . Yes, she had been verv kind fa Kilna. She continued to be so. So did her papa. Also, the members of the firm Tninms and Bungalee. They made Silas Peek 'ft he fashion, and lovely girls called hiin "a dear Odd creature. ; When we passed along the street people ran to look at the proprietor of the "Peek Oil Farm," mid then they would whisper: "That's his cousin, Mr. Pierre Paragraph the poet." So that I shown by reflected light the light of oil. I began to see at last that poetry was nothing beside petroleum. That Silas Peek was adored for his farm's sake. That he was a veritable lion. A man bowed down to and adored. He had influence also; eve ry man with whom he conversed resolved at once to "put bis money into oil." I should myself, if 1 had any. At last a harrowing suspicion dawned up on me. It was idiotic. 1 laughed at it. Yet it remained. One d ay, when dining with Cousin Silas at the Wicketts, it forced itself into my mind. I resolved to banish it forever, anil seized the moment when the old gentleman and Cousin Peek were roaring about ile, and we, Wilhelmina and 1, were on tho garden balcony. Then I began: 'Wilhelmina, you must long have known But she put up her hands and implored "Please don't, Mr. Ptragraph!" "But 1 must," said I. "Pll go away if you do." "Nay, stay ami hear mr." "Oh. dear! Ple-e-o-ease " "Angel, we have no auditors. Your fath er and my cousin have forgotten all in oil. My heart " "Oh, you mustn't sav anything about your heart," cried Wilhclmimi, in quite a tragic way. "It's wrong for uie to hear it. "Wrong to hear my fervent protestations of adoration! Oh, Wilhelmina, 1 love you better than mv soul! I " "Ob! what would .Mr. Peek say? Do go away. ' ' And she wrung her hands despair lnglv. "Mr. Pork? I trust Mr. Peck would not venture to utter a word on the subject,' ' I said, lumghtdy. "I ,.,.,M., hm ,10 ditch privilege. "Oh! but bo has, you know." "l ias what?" "The privilege the the right. Oh, Mr. Paragraph, don't you know I've been en gaged to Mr Silas Perk a fort-night?" 1 fell bark flat amon? the flnwer tints When I picked myself un Wilhelmina had j lined Silas Pock in the parlor. , They had sold her for oil. Mr. Wiekctt had put bis money into oil and added his daughter. Mr. Trumps and Mr liunsalee only wished that oil fanners were Mormons, that they might give them their daughters also. 'I hoy bud sacrificed her, driven me to despair, and established "The (Jraud Peek's Farm Oil Company." Next week she was married in Grace Church. Silas asked me to be his grooms man, and I, for the first time in our acquain tance, turned on him and called him an "oil-barrel." Who cared? They went on their tour (to the oil farm, I suppose,) as merrily as tho' 1 had not uttered the vindicative words. About three months afterwards I renu m- ber to have read something in a paper alo'.it a celebrated divorce case. It appears that. Sirs. W ilhelmina JVok bud boon, in divers ways, ill-iuod. Among other things ex patiated upon by her lawyer were the facts that Mr. Silas Peek, having invested all her fortune in oil lands, had insisted on estab lishing his residence upon tbe oil farm, where it habitually rained grease; and, fur thermore, bad insisted, on replenishing the cas'or -cruets with petroleum, and hud forc ed the delicate Wilhelmina to partake there of. I road the announcement with great gus to. I attended court daily throughout the suit. Yes, 1 have been avenged! General Sherman in Chicago j , . Ill Speech. . . . . ' Gen. Sherman was in Chicago and attend ed the -unitary Fair. The citizens of that populous city turned ont to give the Gener al an enthusiastic greeting. After the May or of the city had befittmgly welcomed the General to the city, a rulutatory lioein was read, when General Sherman made the fol lowing patriotic response : "I thank you, fir, for the kind welcome you have given me to-day, and to the gen tleman who read the poem I also tender my thanks. I can hardly hope that my ;oice will reach yon recess, and, it those who are near me can only hear the few words I pro pose to address to you, that is nil that I ask. I am not a man of words, and deeds can on ly be recorded by others; not by the actors themselves, for we tee not the scenes remote, we see not what occurs behind us, but sim t!v the limited kivicr in i t-nnl of n-tr iH-nd 1 iiavo been faraway from you, but mv feel ings have been here quite as much as though my body had been within tho hunts of Chi cago. My sphere of action lay aw ly off in the South. I had with me your brothers and your son, nnd I never want better backers in anything. Applause, long con tinued, and voices, 'Hurrah for Sherman, ' 'Didn't they do it,' &c. I can recall, among those backers, men of Chicago, avmed with stronger arguments than mere words or let tersarmed with tho twenty-pounder and the twelve-pounder, which speak, in lan guage which cannot be mistaken, the only voice with which men arrayed in arms a gainst us are to be addressed, and the only means man can use when reason loses its sway to convince. Now all is pas-jed! Now all is peace from here to the guilt, and you, gentlemen, know better than loan tell what your duties have become. Instead of de straying, you must build vp. .Instead of insulting, you must encourage. Prolonged Applause. J Instead of destroying, you must aid those, loilling to assist us in building vpa land so dirersiied as ours. You cannot ex pect the people of Louisiana to leel as you do, nor those who live in the Carolina. Cheers. All parties have their prejudi ces, and you must, and should, respect them as they respect yours. With that simple caution there is nn danger ot the peace we now enjoy being disturbed during our lite time, it ml we can leave the future to our children. I Long continued applause. I Ladies and ecntlemen. 1 thank vou for this manifestation of kindness, und assure you I reciprocate the feeling. I have to stay in Chicago a few days, and during that time I will ho pleased to see one and ail of you in such manner as you choose. 1 Cheers. 1 The General ieols that be has done his duty as a General ; he has done so ; and there fore, he can say wiih propriety, as he did in his Chicago speech, to bis countrymen : "You know better than I can tell you what your duties have become. Instead of de stroying, you must build up. Instead of in sulting, you must encouraffc,'' mid this sen timent was received not with simply applause merely, but with "prolonged applause." , jtn. ruatwuUMmiiudi, .oa .nV TWiMt j " " Y .'

"Avoid all thoughts of managing your husband. 1! Never try to deceive or impose oii his understanding, nor give hiin uneasiness, but treat him with uffcction'iind respect. H. lleinembcr that husbands, at best, are only men, subject, like yourselves, to error and frailty. Be not too sanguine then, be fore marriage, or promise yourself ha ppi ness without alloy. 4. Should you discover any thing in your husband's humor or behavior, not alto gether what you expected or wish, pass it over. Smooth your own temper, and try to mend his by attention, cheerfulness and good nature. 5. Never reproach him with misfortunes, which are the accidents and infirmities of human life, a burden that each has engaged to help tho other in supporting, and to which both parties are equally x posed, but instead ot tiuiiimimigs ana reflections, di vide; the sorrow between you, make the best of it, and it will be easier to both. 0. It is the olilec of the si fter sex to smooth the troubles ct tbe other. 7, iiesoh e every morning to be cheerful that day. and if anything occur to break your resolution, suffer it not to put you out of temper at your husband. 8. Dispute not, with him; but rather de ny yourself the tiiilinpatisfaotion of I a.'ing your own win, or gaming uie hotter in an argument, than ri.-k a quarrel' or create a heart burning which it is impossible to see the end ol. 'J. Implicit submission in a man to his wife, is ever disgraceful to both; implicit submission in a wile, to the just will ot her husband, is wnut she promised at the altar what the good will revere her for, and what is, in fact, the greatest honor she can receive. 10. Be assured, a woman's power, as well as her happiness, has no other foundation than her husbands esteem and love, which it. is her interest by all possible means, to preserve and increase. 11.

From the Wheeling Register. The Radical Ilan. . . President' Johnson's system ' of recon struction, allowiug each State to determine the qualifications of its voters, is exciting quite a disturbance in the Bepublican camp, 'lhe "great party of opposition" which Judge Chase proposes to build up,' is hav ing Us foundations laid, and iisplun marked out. We have seen that Wendell Phillips has demanded negro suffrage or repudiation of the national debt, (.since explained 10 mean only repudia'km of the rebel debt) and even Mr. Chase has endeavored to en list all the holders of United States securi ties in f avor of negro suffrage, on the plea that, without the negro vote, the money obligations of the government are in dangar of being declared void. . . Failing, bovwver, to compel the Presi dent to recede from his position, and not being able to convince tbe people that it is necessary to permit negroes to vote in order to maintain the national honor, they have hit upon another plan to compel the South ern States to comply with their wishes. It is thsi: They propose to so manipulate the members of the Congress whsch meets next winter, as to prevent tho admission of mem bers from the Southern States elected by the white vote alone. Congress has the ex clusive right of excluding or admitting its own members, and when those who have bet n elected in North Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and other Southern States that may be reorganized during the summer upon the North Carolina plan, apply for their lolmer seats, it is expected that the abolition ma jority will vote in solid phalunx against their admission, and thus thwart the President's design. This idea is suggested and urged by the Chicago JupMkun, Mr. Dana s new pa per, and Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, goes so far as to declare that members of Congress from Tenne s;c shall not be admit ted to long as that State retains upon her statute books certain negro Jaws offensive to his royal pleasure. There are certain acts of Congress, and customs which have become law, which may stand in the way of the fulfilment of this radical piogramme, of which they seem to have lost sight. Among these may be mentioned the law pass d so late as March 3, 1 863, requiring the clerk of the House of Ilepresuitatives to nluee unnii the roll the names of "all persons whose credentials show that they were regularly elected in ac cordance with the laws of their States re spectieey, or the laics of the United States.'! It will manifestly be the duty of the cleik to place the names of Southern members upon tbe roll, they cannot be prevented from participation, in the organization of the House and all its subsequent proceedings. There aro other provisions of law, equally explicit, which will stitud as insuperable barriers in the way of the advocates of ne gro sovereignty. lint look at tbe arrogance of Senator Wilson, and the character of tho doctrine lie put forth. The speech to which wo re ferred above was made recently in Boston. Kcferring to the law of Tennessee, Andrew. Johnson's own State, excluding negroes from voting and from giving testimony in tbe courts of justice in cases in which white men were concerned, Mr. Wilson said, "He would tell the people of Tennessee, Gover nor Brownlow, und President Johnson, that lleprescntatived from Tennessee cannot be received in Congress with that law upon her statute booh." Tbe Senator of the United State who could utter such language as that we have quoted, and believe that he or his associates have any right, in compliance with their oath of office, to dictate to Tennessee what laws hor Legislature shall pass, is unworthy of the high position he occupies. There is ccntraljzatiori fin you, full grown and defi ant. It illustrates how far the detiiil of the doctrine of State's rights can go. Sena tor W ilson ovidcutly considers himself 'Mon arch of nil he surveys.1 born "to threaten and command," and expects the people of a groat Slate to . stand still when he speaks, and the President to tremble at bis frown There is something so completely unrea sonable and unjust in this whole attempt of cjrniin persrons in tne iorth to enlorce ne gro sufiVago upon 'he Southern States, as to excite the disgust of all reasonable men. What right have they, who will not, permit t ie negro to vote in the -Northern KtaJes to even recommend it to tho South? They thould first cast tho beam out of their own eye before they seek to pluck the mote from their brother's eye. The northern negroes are tenfold more intelligent than those of the South and tenfold better fitted to make theexpcrinient of negro sovereignty success ful. Thru why not try it at home? These men know not very well that the white peo ple of the North will never agree to such a measure, and now, when they think they have the South in their power, they are at tempting to fasten upon her shoulders a burden which thoy themselves are unwilling to bear. Tbe whole scheme deserves the most indignant reprobation, and President Johnson deserves the thanks of the nation for the sturdy opposition to it which has been manifested in all of his official acts. .' .Sumner In the Train of Phillips. Senator Sumner of Massachusetts is the first of his party to accept the new pro gramme of llepudiation issued by Wendell Phillips. In an oration yesterday delivered at Boston, Mr. Sumner declares that with out negro suffrage "there is nothing but in security for the colored people, instability for the lucnj governments, and weakuenit for the Union, inrohing, of course, the national credit." Hero wo have a distinct threat of seces sion urd repudiation, the two great "ideas" of Jefferson Davis, held over us by Sum ner nnd Phillips, unless the country com pels President Johnson to violate his own cinvietions of duty, and tflo principle of the Constitution! And while Jon. Davis is put upon trial tor his hie tit W ashuurton, Sumner and Phillips are liarrungiiing Mas sachusetts into a new crusade against peace and the Union. i'V this crusade Mr Sum ner has already found ft name. Ile styles it a holy war against un "Oligarchy nf. the Skin." Mr. Sumner's Greek is as bad us his principles. An oligarchy bus heretofore been supposed to be a government, of the many by the few; so that it is difficult to see how the coverntutitt of three millions of negroes by thirty million of whiles can bo called un "oligarchy," unless, indeed Mr. Sumner holds that one nero is ninrb than nual to ten white nion! as The Tribune doubtless docs when it asserts that it is not the whito soldiers but tho block "oldiors whnsn vnloriind ndelttv have civen n tlin promise of a future!" 1 he WoHd, Junt Z The Whisky Tax.

It has been this interruption of delivery at the timo of subscription which has given aq ap pearance of a tailing off in the popular tak ing of the loan, the great body of small" takers being unwilling to pay their money unless they receive their notes right in hand, : to carry them home. It is expected tbat after this week tbe daily subse.riptiijns to . the Seven-Thjrties will run up into millions, as they will undoubtedly 'be stimulated by the openini' of the farmers' wool uiarkets East and West.

Oat seasons are so short, help so scarce, and there is so much to do, that it is almost im possible to find time to atteud to mental ini - , proyement and tho -cultivation of some feelings. "All work and no play mikes " Jack a dull boy." It is so with those who have attained to riper years. We all need relaxatiouind we will take it one wav or another. Would it not be well to find it by visiting a little more among our brother far mers? Do not make formal visits. - Get - into your buggy some evening before durk ,,, and visit soma goa.l farmer friend., ' ,' Talk over your agricultural plans and pros-'', fiect. Look at tbe crops and the stock, and' you will be almost sure to get some hint ' that will prove useful. If you see anything particularly good say so. It will encourage your friend and stim ulate him to renewed exertions. If your 1 own crops are better than his, you feel none the worse for knowing the fact. Don't gossip. Leave that to those who have no thing better than personalities to talk about. Don't stay too long. Don't bore your friend ' or let hiin bore you. Be cheerful" and pleas ant, lluturn home early, and you will bo -astonished with how much more spirit you will go to work the next morning. Things " which had depressed you for days and weeks wiil put on a different aspect. Wo can all accomplish much more than we do if we on ly think to and have courage to go sywteuiat- . -ically to work. A little, relaxation, a con versation with one who has the 'Same trials ' and labors, give us new courage, anil We at tempt to accomplish with ense things which " before oppressed us with their magnitude. Hon. Jame M. Ahlej and Pres- Ident JohnKOii. Hon. James Ashley, who managed to get re-elected to Congress by some juggling at the election last fall, recently went to Wash- - ingion to give 1'resident Johnson somo wholesome advice, as to how be should con duct his Administration. On Tuesday eve ning of last week at Toledo, Mr. Ashley,' to an improvised meeting of his liicuds and supporters, unbosomed himself as to the success that attended his mission of love. He claims that he nud his friends succeed- ed in inducing the President to frame the " Amnesty Proclation to suit their views; but in regard to Negro Suffrage thev could do nbthiug with him. By way of intimidating the President, he told him that "the 'Anti- " Slavery party hud destroyed tho old Whig and Democratic parties," and that they "r.. tenaea, under hod, to crush any parly or . man who stood up against the tikivirsal en franchisement of the country." Mr. Ashley counseled his friends "to forbearance and kindness, but earnestness; and thin, with the press of tbe country taking up the mnt ter, we theyj may bring the Administration of 1 resident Johnson to the right point, sis the Anti-Slavery nicti brought Pra-idout . Lincoln, after a contest of two"vears." Mr. Ashley is nn authority in the domi nant party, and bis declaration thatlhe Anti. Slavery party intend "to crush anv party or nian who stands up ajainst the universal enfranchisement of the country," is conclu- Rive evidence that in Ohio they will support no State ticket the candidates on which are not in favor of Negro ,.ufl'ragc Statesman Indian Skeleton Found.

As soon us the stonos were removed, and they commenced to dig, Mr. Mnfht noticed that tho earth was not of its natural formation. On digsing down about two feet, thoy found a large human skele ton. Beido the skeleton was an Indian arrow, which was in his right hand. Ac cording to the Indian custom, he was bur ied with his head to the Fast, and his feet pointing to the West.
