Whets the celebrated Theodore Par-
ker married Miss Cabot, be eeterei u
his journal on his wedding day, the sub-
joined resolutions, the keeping of which
utade his life a happy one:
1. Never, except for the best of m-
eow, oppose my wife's will.
2. To thecharge all duties for her
sake freely.
3. Never to Gould.
4. Never look cross at her.
5. Never to weary her with outs
tnand&
6. To promote her piety.
7. Tu bear her burdens,
8. To overlook her foibles.
9. To save, cherish and forever de-
fend her.
10. To remember her always most
affectionately in my prayers.
Thus, God willing, we shall be bless-
ed.
In view of these peculiar domestic ar-
rangements tha reale reader will under -
Rand better why Mrs. Parker survived
her husband more than 20 years. The
rules are eerydesirable ones, in their
way, however. They ought to be print-
ed on little cards, by the million, and
every would-be husband should be made
to sign a pledge to observe the same be -
f are the marriage ceremony. We com-
mend the enterprise to the Women's
Congress, which meets in Buffalo this
summer.
.te Absurd cruder.
There has just occurred in southern
France the must absurd blunder of anti-
quarians on record. Some savants,
while exploring an old Itornan burying
ground, opened a grave which contained
ancient weapons and amphora. The lar-
gest vase was covered with inscrip-
tions and tilled with a thick red
liquid. From the ahnost il-
legible inscriptions the delighted archse-
'ologists at last learned that the grave
was that of the consul Caius Seutimus,
and they declared that the liquor must
be the famous Falernian wine that Hor-
ace sung of. Bottling the ruby liquid,
they hastened to Paris with their prize
and gave a dinner to a select few of the
academy inscriptions. Here the historic
Falernian was produced. and with much
ceremony the wine of nearly two thou-
sand years ago was poured into tiny
glasses The learned men then drank
the rich nectar to the memory of the
jovial Caius. At this juncture the fol-
lowing telegram was received; "Marseil-
les), 7 p. m.—Don't drink contents of
amphora; not Falernian at all. Having
deciphered other inscriptions, find red
liquid is body of Caius Septimus, liqui-
fied by old Roman process." But it
was to, late—they had drunk him up.
I would not vouch for the truth of the
above story, but it has been copied into
a,veral Europaan journals with the ut-
most gravity.
Proof of Aa/sal Lite la' Other Planets.
Two interesting problems which have
long perplexed the scientific world ap-
pear t , have ', .In at last definitely
solved by the eminent geologist, Dr.
Hahn. These questions are — first,
whether or net celestial bodies, other
than thebarth, belongingto our solarsys-
tem, are inhabited by animate beings:
and secondly, whether the meteoric
ettonee from time to time cast upon the
lurface of this globe emanate from in-
candescent comets nr from volcanic
planets. That they at no time formed
a part of the earth itself has been con-
clusively demonstrated.
Dr. Hahn has recently completed a
series of investigations upon some of
the huge meteoric stones that fell from
the sties in Hungary during the summer
of 1861. Thin laminae of these mysteri-
ous bodies, subjected to examination un-
der a powerful microscope, have been
found to c stain coraline and spongeous
formation, and to reveal unmistakable
traces of the lower forms of vegetable,
discovered he Dr. Hahn in the delicate
stone shavings he has thus dealt with
indicate the condition of their parent
ootid to be one of what is technically
termed, "primary f.,rmation." But the
presence of water in that world is prov-
ed by the fact that the tiny petrified
creatures revealed by the magic re the
lens one and all belong to the so-called
suba.luenus classes of animal. They
could not have existed in crenets—at
lest if the assumption be correct thst
theme are in a state of active combustion.

Goon WnMEN. —The highest words rd
praise that can be spoken of • woman is
to say of her that she is "a good woman.'
The women who win the admiration,
respect, and love of all are the good
women of the world. We are ready to
praise women of talent, w. nun whose
accomplishments are many, who are
brilliant and gifted •bore other women;
an hour passed in their company may be
delightful, but unless they are goal Vo -
men we would not choose to spend a
lifetime with them. We admire women
to whom nature has given the great
of beauty: the bright ere, glow
cheeks, perfect features, and gracefu
movements of a beautiful woman chars
ns, hat the charm is not lasting utiles
the beautiful woman is also • good wo
man. Only gond win nor perfect faith,
our lasting reerect: they only receive
the highest praise our lips can atter, the
hest love our hearts can give.

"It wakes no diderenoe to the eoun-
try, said Indy Glenuora Pallisaer in the
novel, "which party is in; but it makes
a great difference to us which gets the
stars and garters." Stan and garters
have enormous influence in the govern-
ment of human -kind. They are the
wage. of those who ..•rive no coin fur
their public or party service; and they
aro often as honestly earned as the w
ms
of the hardest -worked mechanic. No
raind Mao radical as not to contemplate
the offer of a title with satisfaotion.—
[Tbrontu Mail_
Lady Glowers Palliser mayadmire
the stars and garters, just as ane Ann
McGinnis may swell with pride in con-
templating the brie buttons of a police-
man, or as Dinah Snowball may fall
down and worship the gorgeous uniform
of a Pullman car porter. In the adoleG-
oent stage many • youth is fired with a
belief that the bespangled circus -rider is
the cream of the earth, while the clog -
dancer is so far removed above the or-
dinary wean as to be a fit subject for
adoration. But as wisdom cines we
learn that the police -man's lot is out a
happy one; the ear -porter has to blacken
other people's boots; the circus rider
sprains his joints, and contracts the
rheumatism, while the clog -dancer runs
away and does not pay his board bill.
To prove that titles are valued in this
democratic country, we must have better
evidence than the declaration of Lady
Glencera Palliser in the novel. — Ad -

The rade Ia Art.
All the world, young and old, visits
galleries in which undraped statues
tigure, and drawing fr+.m the cast is prac-
tical work fax preferable to idle sight-
seeing in its effect. Genuine admiration
for the nude is an acquired tante with
all Saxons, and generally acquired with
some difficulty and a rather `creepy"
feeling in the early stages of art educa-
tion. People are as good as torn with
their clothes on, and a critical apprecia-
tion of the nude does not and cannot ex-
ist outside of • narrow circle of artists,
but the public has made up its mind to
admire in art what it willneither tolerate
nor mention in life, and there is nothing
for it but to tc be simple and unaffected
about it. --[Springfield Republican. .
THE GAIN or Sternal, Reel%—Says
Lord Macaulay, "We are not poorer,
bot richer, because we have through
many ages rested from our labour one
day in seven. That day is not lost.
While industry is suspended, while the
change is silent, while no smoke issues
from the factory, a process is going on
quite as important to the wealth of the
nation as any which is performed on
more busy days. Man, the machine of
machines—the machine compared with
which all the contrivances of tele Watts
and Arkwrights are worthless—ie re-
pairing and winding up, so that he re-
turns to his labours on the Monday with
clearer intellect with livelier spirits, and
renewed corporeal vigour.

A Few Tst-THs.—A cake eaten in
peace is worth two in trouble. Acandle
lights others 'and consumes itself. A
careless watch invites thethief. A char-
itable man is the true lover of God. A
colt you can break, but an old horse
you never can. A constant guest is
never welcome. A contented mind is a
continual feast. A courageous foe is
better than a cowardly friend. A cove-
tous man does nothing that he should
till he dies. A cracked bell will never
sound well- A crooked stick will throw
a crooked shadow. A cunning knave
needs no broker.
Sergeant Cockle, a rough, blustering
fellow, and well known on the northern
circuit, once got from a witness more
than ho gave. In a trial of a right of
fishery he asked the witness. "Don't you
love fish'" "Aye," replied the witness
with a grin, "but I dinna like Cockle
sauce with it."
