The Dear's Tears. TIio tear of a lov ing girl (says Moeser, fritm the German) ia like a dew-drop on thu ruwe; but ibat on the cheek of a wife, it a drop of poi-on to her huxbamj. Try to appear cheerful and contented, and your husband will bo o ; and when you have made him happy, you will become go, not in appearance, but in reality. The skill required ia not so great. Nothing flatters a man no much as the happiness of his wife; ho is always proud of himself as the source of it, A Real Tuai;edy. The hiaiory of Swe den records a very extraordinary hidden', which took lilacs at the the. Mystery of the Passion, under Kinpr John II., in 1513. Tho actor mIm per formed the purt of Loiiyinus, the soldier who was to pierce the Christ on the cro.11 in the aide, was so transported villi the spirit of his action that he really killed the man who personated our Lord; who, full ing suddenly, and with great violence, overthrew the actress who represented tho Holy Mother. Kin? John, who was pres ent at this spectacle, was go enmjied again! Longinu-t that h leaped on the atago and struck off his head. The spec tators, who had bin delighted with the too violent actor, became infuriated against their king, fell upon him a throng, and killed him Curiosities nf Iiiltiry. Xkvrk. Never tip your beaver to a fine lady, and pass a poor widow wiihnut act ining to see her. Never pass an aged man or woman, without making a reverential obeisance, unless your bouse is on fire. Never break your neck lo bow at all to a "sweet sixteen," with a flounced dress, who is ashamed of her old fuhhionud moth, er: or to a atruiting collegiate who is borrified at his grandmother's bad gram mar. Never couverso with a lady with a ci gar in your mouth, or smoke in anybody's company without apologizing fur tho same. Never remind people of personal deform ity, or of the relatives who have disgraced tbem, Nover leave a letter unanswered and use the stamp which was enclosed to vou to "reply with" on a loiter to your own awcethcart. Nevor ride in a fine carriage and keep a score ol servants, wbilu your widowed water trudges on foot, and toils fur her daily Drcau. Nover wear a finer coat than the mer cliant you owe for it, or the tailor whom you have not paid for tho making. Never turn n deaf car to a woman distress, because you oannot see how yon would be the gainer by her bettered con dition. Never wound wantonly the sensitive na. ture of tho constitutional invalid; nor by rudo justs and sarcasms, nend a blush to the temples efmndesl merit. Nuver jest wiih a aingl womau about the anxiety of aU women lo be married ; nor tell your wifo you married her because you pitied her lonely condition.

She cannot see a piece of lace wiih out asking l he price. 3. She, cannot see a baby without kiss ing it. A lady of our acquaintance turns the tables on the gentlemen as follows : 1. lie cannot go through the house and shut the door after him. 2. He cannot have a shirt made to suit him. 3. lie enn never be satisfied with the ladies' bullions. 4. lie is a ioor stick any way, without a goud wife. Adieu.
