'•Now, what shall I do for your comfort
or amusement this evening, old lady?"
inquired Mr. Murray Cooper of his de
, voted, wife, u* he bit off the end of a ci
gar, .aid fumbled behind,mi engraving by
Land*6or for the match-box, that ho al
ways insisted on having there, just where
he Gould roach it,
"There's the paper —but that I've read ;
and 1 looked through 'Harper' as I came
along. Shall I crack some nuts? That
reminds me that I must get one of those
patent-lever nut-crackers. 1 saw one at
Smith's to-day, and a grid!*on, the most
complete arrangement you ever saw for
j doing a steak —catches the smoke and the
gravy at the same time,
i u llow much was it? You know ours
came with the stove, and isn't two years
1 old yet."
i "O, a dollar or so, I suppose—-a mere
trifle. Must you sew to-night ? Always
that everlasting work-basket ? AYhy don't
you have a seamstress ? How much would
it cost, now, to have all that pile sewed
up for once f" m
"A dollar or so," retorts Mrs. Murray,
playfully; and as she drew out her thimble
and needle-book, the grocer's coiumuui
- cation was discovered ou the top of her
1 work-box.
"Uud any letters to day? who is that
front ? 1 say, Matty, suppose we should
j begin to think of a little place in the
country, next spring ? Lawtou was talk
j iug about that lot on the bend of the
. Bronx, you know, again to-day." And
two or three satisfactory puffs filled up a
- short pause, as Mr. Cooper threw him
self back iu his own particular easy-chair.
>AYe must have saved something this }*oar

! lie woman, and deserve to have a house
iof your own, and everything nice about

j sinking since the opening of the work-box.
I .She knew perfectly well that she was con
sidered as responsible for every item of
j the aeetomt, as if each barrel of flour and
j {Mjurul of coffee had been purchased for
1 her sole individual benefit. Mr. Cooper's
i face clouded with the direction of the let-'
ter, clouded with breaking open the eu
velope; the storm burst with his first
I glance at the suui total.
"A hundred and fifteen dollars ! did
I you see that, Martha?—a hundred dol
lars aud over, when it ought not to hare
i been thirty-five, with all I paid iu July.
What in the world did you order when 1

I I
"Only what was necessary."
j "Necessary! I should think so, with
! all the waste that goes on it that kitchen.

• . i
! Martha, as I've told vou a hundred times.
ft would he a dou! cheaper to put out this
'everlasting sewing, and attend more to

your house."
"I try to do both," said Mrs. Cooper,
mildly, bending before the gust, as it
were, knowing it to be inevitable.
"Try! yes, I dare say; it looks like it,!
with all the bread I see thrown out —
I enough to feed a dozen pour families.—
Three barrels of Hour ! uo wonder."
"There is quite half of the last one
yet."
"And sugar and coffee; don't tell me-
There's Lawtun says they use only half a
barrel of white sugar every year, llis!
wife does her jelly in coffee crashed." i
So had Mrs. Cooper, until she found
that it was cheaper to use that which did.
not need refining, and her husband never
j
thought he could touch mutton or game
without currant jelly, and had almost a
juvenile loudness for sweetmeats of every
description. She knew perfectly well
what, became of the sugar.
r j
"And butter —ves, it's the butter. —
. • 1
1 much do vou think we've bad since Oc
, Über ?" said her husband, presently, with
, the air of a virtuous judge condemning a
criminal found guilty on every point of
an indictment. "I told you Ann wasted
; butter from the first. How can you cx
| puct we shall ever get along in the world. 1
; Martha, if you dou't see after your ser
vants ? What's the use of denying my
' self everything / '-—for Mr. Cooper here
recollected a cane, a pair of fur-lineu
gloves, and a fancy travelling-cap that he
had severally dismissed from bis thoughts
in the most resolute manner—"every
i 1
thing, I may say, tor your sake and the
j children's if (his is the way you are to
go on."
It was certainly an unexpected amount
to Mrs. Cooper, who, invariably econom
ical, thought she had bee a especially care
ful the last six months.-—She was very
J ;
sorry. It was hard when she, too, could
enumerate self-deuials of time and pa
tience, and had braved cross looks, and
spoiled dinners, and "warnings" with a
houseful of company, in the inspection of
Anus closets and safes, and repeated re
peated rebukes and corrections of her
carelessness. Though economical to the
last degree, there was nothing she shrank
from so much as an approach to mean
ness, or being considered so by others. —
► Perhaps it was her own special weakness,
this dread ; but even that she tried to put
down iu doing a housekeeper's duty faith
fully.
lier husband, not in the least pacified
by her admission that "it miyht have
been the butter," replaced the bill in its
envelope with the air of a inan whose sub
stance is "wasted by riotous living," and
scut it skimming ou to the table —to the
flour, indeed, under the lounge where his
'wife found it iu dusting, the next morn
ing. She was rather heavv-hearted, for
■ the evening, which promised so much,
. closed very uncomfortably, she stitching
• away in sleuee, and her husband declining
to amuse himself or be entertained, gloont
> ed over the fire, after his cigar was finish
ed, aud stalked off to bed an hour earlier
t than usual.
[ "lleally, I cannot understand it. I
[ thought I had been so very careful. I
don't wonder Murray is discouraged;
I and yet I don't sec how I could hav e
1 done without anything we have had."
i! Mrs. Cooper laid down her duster, and
opened tlie uncomfortable account. Ii
was a very long face, aud a very perplex-!
Ed one that the opposite mirror reflected ;
( but it brightened visibly before she had
finished her inspection of the vtmou-
i tents, and hpr cheerfulness had entirely
returned even to gaiety before site had
finished copying oft' some of them on a
sheet by themselves. If s.h t ' had made
any discoveries she kept them to herself 1
that evening; but, when her husband
bung up his overcoat in his office the;
next day, and felt iu the outaide pocket
lor a clean handkerchief, he found with
it-a note, in his wife's hand writing, ad-;
dressed to himself.
It was odd. Perhaps he had been too
hasty in condemning her, or too severe, j
rather, considering how very fond sin
was of him, and how she felt even a word.'
Poor child ! ITe would overlook it, this
once; and so lie broke the seal.
lie thought it was another bill, at first;
glance, and that she had been afraid to j
I give it to him after his late outburst; but
it was iu his wife's band-writing, and j
licaued—

. one made it clearer and clearer. Really
j he could not have believed that these lit—!
tie "stores" laid in, from tune to time, 1
' for himself and a friend or so, who was
accustomed to "drop in," could amount j
to so much. Mrs. Cooper did not drink'
| brandy, or Sherry wine, or smoke cigars,
so the "waste" lay at his own door, after
all.
Mrs. Cooper, sitting by the front win
dow, at twelve o'clock, saw the office boy
arrive with a return dispatch. It was
short, but quite to the point.

Autographs.
[From the Home Journal, (N. Y..) Oct. 24.]
We have, in our da}', seen some very
valuable collections of autographs; and
have studied the characteristics of an in
dividual's hand-writing in order to detect
peculiarities of character; anil have occa
sionally been aware of a slight chill at
coming thus suddenly into contact with a
personal souvenir of some of the great
1 men of the world. But nothing in the
autograph liue has ever excited in us so
much interest and astonishment as a
volume we have just finished examining.
In exterior arrangement it is a portly
quarto, bound in morocco, containing
about four hundred pages, and each page
.
contains, on an average, some ten or
twelve uanies—making an aggregate of
perhaps four thousand.
These names are those of distinguished
Americans from the days of the Pilgrims
to the present day; American authors for
a similar period; British authors from a
date antecedent to Shaksperc down to the
contemporary writers of the three king
doms; men of mark in medicine, theology,
■ natural history, botany, music, the drama,
: and the fine arts; Napoleon with his furn
• ily and marshals, and personages of the
' French revolution ; aad finally, the roy
,' alty, nobility, military and naval celcbri
; ties of Europe for the past three centu
: ries; and appended to almost every name
- is a brief biographical statement of birth,
- death; etc., which, of itself, forms a tolcr
r ably oomplete biographical dictionary.
The names, however, are not autographs:
1 nor are they lithographs or engraved far
'■ iimihts of autographs; but they are per
; | and ink imitations of the signatures ol
e j the four thousand individuals designated
1 all so precisely, wc might almost say sc
1 ; absurdly acnjrate ; as to be neither mon
j nor less than ideutical with their original .
|aud cdl the. work of one man ! We have
no hesitation in saying that this far tran.s
eendsYll other " curiosities oi literatu - <•,"
'and it can be approached by nothing that
wo have ever ste-i or heard of before in
the way of "skill with tlie pen."
Among oilier things we find here the
signers of the Declaration of Iridepend-'
■cticcandof the Constitution off the United
.Staacs; and we learn by tlie array of
names attached to tlie latter instrument
the interesting tacts, hitherto forgotten
;by or unknown to ourselves, that Rufus
King was one of the two signers lor Mas
jaachusctts; Alexander Hamilton, the only
;signer for New York; while Benjamin
• Franklin and seven others signed for
, Pennsylvania. And from a biographical
i note to one of the signers of the Declara
tion, we learn the startling fact that an
individual of that immortal hand died in
i prison for debt in the year 1806! —a pe
culiarly disgraceful instance of the well
known reproach against" Republics."
[This was Robert Morris, the great financier :
[of the Revolution, to whom, more than to any
other man, Washington alone excepted, our
' country is indebted fi>r the achievement of its
I independence.— N. Y. EVE. POST.]
Another and a very different thing we
j learn from this collection of signatures :
| that individual character is very apucry
| phally taught by the peculiarities of hand
; writing. For example, among Napoleon's
i marshals, [jaud Augereau dash
| forth their alphabetical combiuatious with
the same bold utterance as they evinced
I when hurling their columns on an enemy's
position; and, so far, all is well. But Lvle
ber, Soult; Ney aud others, modestly and
timidly content themselves with a space
| that any one of Augereau's vowels or
Mcdonald's consonants would overwhelm.
(Again, iu a different department of life,
we find Mary of England —"Bloody Ma
ry"—all neatness, precision and amiabil
ity; while her unfortunate namesake on
the other side of the Tweed depatches pa
per and ink like another Thalaba. Then,
again, the fiery and demonstrative .Junius
compresses his gigautic intellectual pro
portions into the breadth of a sixpence,
while Walter Savage Landor can hardly
rest within the longitude of a folio sheet.
On the whole, we repudiate this theo-
Iry of judging individual character by
handwriting; at least, until we are fur-
nished with a more reliable key of intcr
. pretation than a cursory glauce at extcr
, nal appearances.
But, all this time, we are treating these
signatures as veritable autographs; and
! '
such, they seem to be, though
such they are not. Yet they are some
thing far more wonderful than autographs;
for they show n power in one man to pro
duce an almost infinite variety of chirog
arpliy —each specimen differing entirely
from the other, and yet all in exact iuii
tatiou of separate and independent mod
els. The very contemplation of the thing
' makes one giddy!
II
j YYe understand that the compiler and
writer of this book expended upon it the
leisure of five-aud-twenty years, and we
can readily believe that no wau could
evcu gain access to the original signature
in a much shorter period, to say nothing
, of the endless labor of copying them.—
j And as he kept no duplicates of his work
j it may well be said, that if this book
should be lost or destroyed, no powei
.could reproduce it.
The volume has become, by purchase
the property of our townsman, Edward
S. Gould, Esq.

li!:irk Democracy.
It was a marked feature of the late
Presidential campaign, that the banker*,
speculators, and kite-'iyers of the great
cities, were almost unanimously for 3IY.
Buchanan, aud that the chief strength
of his competitor was in the rural dis
tricts. it was the men who issue paper
money, and the men who live upon paper
money, who constituted the fighting, and,
above all, the paying, allies of the Black
Democracy. It was by means of contri
bution? raised by the Now York financiers
at the last moment, that Pcnsylvania was
.saved to the victorious party.
Now, it has so happened that these
speculators, financiers, and bankers, com
prehensively known as the silk-stocking
I gentry, have got themselves and every
body else into trouble, by their manage
ment of their paper machines,
i At this juncture, the Administration
which they elevated to power, to divert
attention from its own relation with the
banking fraternity, has directed a con
certed attack to be made upon banks and
. paper money.
The whole thing is a piece of transpa
rent hypocrisy. All the world knows
, that it was the paper-money men who
i made 31 r. Buchanan President, and that
I they now control his Administration and
~ his party.
Neither bis Administration nor his
i party can in this way escape the odium
. of their caunection with the banking sys
■ teni. as estabished and administered in
this country.
It was in Philadelphia, where Mr.
Buchanan's majority is overwhelming,
and where the banking and commercial
, interests constitute his most reliable sup
. port, that the late suspension of specie
payments commenced, and under circum
; stance? indicative of special rottenness.
If the clamor of the 6/tton, and ot the
' lesser organs of the Administration, up
-7 on the subject of banks and paper motey,
is merely a political trick, 110 serious ae
.Atou upon the subject by the party iu
• ! power is to be expected, and, in fact,
none will be witnessed.
It is the States which are most thor
. i oughly can trolled by the Black Demoera
, cy, as Virginia and Snuth Carolina,
J which are most deeply committed to pa
j per money, and which will be the last to
, abandon it.
. i Neither in Pennsylvania nor Ohio,
• I where the Black Democracy have just
achieved a complete legislative ascenden
cy, will anything be done effectively to
; '"eform the banking system. Iu Penn
_: sylvauia, especially, they dare not touch it,
because, if they alienate their friends in
rr Philadelphia, they lose the State.
It is among the possibility, that the
] managers of the Administration hoped,
e! by their clamors, to decoy the Republi
e ican party into a defeuco of, and ideuti
r] fication with, a system of banking which
i is essentially defective or not, is, beyond
0- all peradventure, odious to the great
_ body of the people.
If the Admiuistration managers have
[ c made any such calculations as this, they
r have been completely foiled. It is not
the Bepublican party, with its strength
> in the rural districts, which will assume
c | the special defence of banks, which have
been blown up by the kite-liyers of New
York and Philadelphia,
s The managers of the Administration,
c have not decoyed the Hepublican party
into a false position, but they have got
() themse'ves into a position which tlicy
e can neither maintain, nor retreat from
:r without ruin .
■ If they feduce thtfr pretended theories
d to practice, if they will frame into stat
(l utes the dogmas of the Union upon bank
-- ing, and cause thosw statutes to bo enact
li'td by the Legislatures which they con
sj trol, and for whose conduct they are
it politically responsible, they ruin their
2. own friends, and sap the sources of their
)f j own power.
> i If they do nothing, (and this is, in
I,(truth, what will happen,"} they will have
it courted the ridicule which an intelligent
ig people never fail to visit upon empty
a-1 brawlers. — Pht/rV/'on lUpnb'ic.
