Stopping i'Bue- I

Mrs. Partington had watched three quarters oi'an hour for an omnibus, and she swung her umbrella as tine drove up‘, and the driver stopped his horses near where she stood.

" New. Isaac." says she. feeling in her Yeticule for a copper, away down under the handkerchief. and snuff-box, and knitting-work. and thread-case, and neo- die-book, “ be a good boy, dear, while I am gone. and don't cause a constel- lation among the neighbors, as some boys do. and tl'ere‘sa cent for you; and be surejyou don't lay it out extravagantly. aro'w ; and be kecrful you dont break the Windows; and if any body rings at the ‘door', he sure ' and see who it is before you open it. because there is so many 'dishonest rogues about; if any porpoises come a begging give 'cm what was left of the-dinner, lleavcn bless 'car, and much good may it do ‘em! and -—'- why. bless rue ! if the omnibus has n‘t gone off, and left me standing here in the middle of .the street. Such impudence is without :a parable."

Her spectacles gleamcd indignantly «lown the street, after the disappearing "bus, and. for a moment, anger had the mastery; but equanimity, like twilight, came over her mind. and she waited for the next 'bus. with calmness on her face, and her green cotton umbrella under her arm.

Mus. Part'rlxc'rox IN Tun Mann m.— “ I wonder what they mean by a better feeling in the market ?" said Mrs. l‘ar- tington. looking up from the newspaper which she was reading. and the problem deeply agitated her mind, revealed in the vibration of her cap-boiler. lIcr udress was directed to nobody in particular It wasa little private wonder. got up for her own amusement. The market. and the deaths and marriages. were Mrs. 1’.'s favorite study in the Weekly Chronicle, but some ofthe mercantile phrases where at times imperfectly understood. “I wonder what they mean? I'm sliorel don't feel any better there. and Idon‘t believe anybody does but the butchers. and that's when they are pocketing the inoaey,—tliings is so dear! But," con- tinued she, brightening up, “Isliould like to see the trade embracing ten hogs- licads of tobacco. that I see here printed about. That must have been a real tctching sight." She thought of Paul, and the association brought out the cot- ton handkerchief with the Constitution and Guerricrc upon it, and, she discon- tinucd.

Trust: a Kxor.—~A young fellow was taking a sleigh ride with a pretty girl, when he met a Methodist minister, who was somewhat celebrated for tying mat- rimonial knots on short notice. 119 stop- ped him and asked hurriedly:

“ Can you tie a knot for me 3"

“ Yes,” said brother 11., “ I guess so; when do you want it done 5"

“ \Vcll, right away,” was the reply; " is it lawful, though, here in the high- way ?"

“ Oh, yes. this is as good a place as any—safe as in the church itself."

“ Well, then, I want a knot tied in my horse's tail, to keep it out ofthe snow!" shouted the wicked wag, as he drove rapidly away, fearing lest the minister in his wrath, should fall from grace.

A fool is not always ashamed of his own offspring although he invariably laughs at his own jokes.

Disgusting meanness—lo tan a dog's bide with his own bark. -

What's the difference betweena dog belonging to a sailor and one of the [rin- ciple planets? One is the tar's dog and the other is the dog star. (The perpe- trator of this deserves a good can- inc.)

An Irishman, on hearing of a friend having a stone coffin made for himself, exclaimed: “ Ily me sowl, and that's a good idcc. Sure, an'a stone coilin 'ud last a man a lifetime."

“ IIow came you to ‘ go to the bad' so horribly ?" asked a fop. ofa brother snob, whom he found in destitute circumstan- ecs.——“ The truth is,” replied the such, “I bought so many superfluitics thatI at last had to sell my necessaries."

“ Ilow do you like me, now?" asked a bell of her spouse, us she sailed into the room with a sweeping train ofmuslin fol- lowing her. “ Well," said he. “ to tell you the truth, it is impossible for me to like you any longer." I

Theodore Hook and his Printers—In the printing-office oer. Bentley. brother of the publisher, there was an old com- positor who went by the nickname of - 'I‘waddle.’ In completing a sheet of one of Mr. IIook's novels. the copy was give- cn out in small portions. to each one of which the compositor} name was, as usual, appended. When the proof was sent. out to the author, there appeared a line drawn down the margin of a certain page with the word ‘ Twaddle' at the side. Mr. Hook recicved his proof, read it, and brought it back to the oflice— with the remark that. ' though he was not a- bove criticism, he did not think the prin- ter was quite the man to make it.’ Mr. llently sent for the overseer. who ex- plaincd the circumstance to the novelist. Mr. Ilook heard him patiently, but was by no means satisfied with the explana- tion offered. ' It is very ingenious of you, Mr. Overseer} said he, ' to explain away the matter in that. fashion. 1 have read the passage over and over again. and though it is certainly not very brill- innt, Idon't think it deservu to be call. ed twaddle! ‘ The overseer protested, and auured him that the man was so called in the office. and offered to send for him to confirm his assertion. But Theodore Hook would not be convinced. ' Well, wolf.’ he observed, ‘ I shellac] no more about it : but don't let it occur ..

Auor‘r Tca.——1~‘or some time past we have had miserable tea, or rather an ap- ology for tea. Mary had become so care- less in the making of it that it was really undi‘iukuble. ,SOInIhIIIIei it would lie al- most as black‘ns ink, and at others of ti. decided pink shade after the cream was added, and occasionally as weak as water. I considered the case desperate enough to make a decided stand in favour of good tea ; so not long ago.just about ten time, I went into the kitchen and said :,‘ Mary, I want you to put away the tea steeper. as I do not wish it used any more, and you will make the tea after a different plan.’ ‘ \Vell! and indeed. main !' ‘Nev- or mind. Mary,‘ I said, ‘ I know that you desire to please me in everything, and it is my wish to have the tea made in anoth- er way. Take the teapot and rinse it out with a little hot water.‘ Mary did so. ‘ Now put in three teaspoonfuls of tea and fill the teapot with boiling watcr.‘ It was done without any more dcmur. ‘ Now, Mary, put it on the top of the water boiler; never put it on the stove. as I do not wish it boiled. Always make it in this way, and only just before tea is ready to be served.’ Mary has followed these directions ever since, and the re- sult has invariably been tea of delightful flavor. The fact is, the Chinese never stew their tea. and the French never boil their coffee. and we can learn some- thing of these nations as to the best me- thod of preparing their great national beverages.

Bump Martina—My bread, or rather dough, was sour this morning, and I found it necessary to work in a teaspoon- ful cfsoda before baking it. The soda was first dissolved in a little water. This misfortune of having sour dough to deal with is one which seldom occurs with me. It was at this time owing to an experiment. A neighbor of mine rcc- ommendcd me to try her way. which was to set the sponge in the afternoon, to work it or‘er with the flour before going to bed, and bake the first thing before break- fast in the morning. lkuow many per- sons follow this plan, but I think inex- perienced housekeepers, and especially late risers, should adopt my method. It is this: Set the sponge just before going to bed, then in the morning. the first thing. work in the flour; when well risen. mould into loaves, set to rise for half an hour, and bake.

THE Bssr Giuss I-‘OI't Burma—If you aim at a great flow of milk, feed young timothy and white clover; if you aim at the best results both in quantity and quality of butter, feed on fresh pas- tures of white clovcrand timothy in sum- mer. and early-cut timothy and wheat bran in winter. The grass must. be cut when heading out; or. better, young aftermath well cured. Avoid roots and garden stuff in general, if you wish a good quality of butter—though it is now held that those fed while milking. or im- mediately before, will remedy the evil.— Valley Farmer.
