lVIONEY.â€"Men work for it, beg for it, steal for it, starve for it, and die for it; and all the While, from the cradle to the grave, nature and God are thundering in our ears the solemn question, “ \Vlmt shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world, and lose his own soul ?” The madness for money is the strongest and lowest of the passion ; it is the insatiate Moloeh of the human heart, before whose remorseless alter [all the finer attribut- es of‘ humanitr are sacrificed. It makes merchandise of all that is sacred in the human affections, and even truffles in the ‘ awful solemnities of the eternal‘ A GENTLEMAN had a parrot which was very apt at talking. To a stranger he gen- erally said, in a very consequential tone, “ Who are you sir?” There was in the neigh- bourhood a black cat which had a. bad cha- racter for honesty, and which, in search of prey, often made excursions into the room where the parrot was kept. In the course of time Miss Pussy got the name of " the black thief.” Polly heard this, and of course caught it up. One morning a chimne Sweep came into the room,when Polly called out "Who are you, sir?” and then, after a pause, added again and again, most vehe- mently, “You black thief! ” The poor man naturally stood aghast at being thus accused, and for some time the owner had great dif- ficulty in setting his mind at rest. LAW IN AMERICA.~An American legal gentleman says :-â€"â€"“I had a great case the other day. My client. O’Sullivan, swore that Phil Ryan owed him forty dollars for work. The defendent swore he owed him ‘niver a cent_;’ that he had paid him allzhe owed him. That being all the evidence, the case resolved itself into a mere matter of credibility between the parties. The jus- tice reserved his decision, and on the day which he appointed gave my client a. verdict for twenty dollars. I asked him how he got at it, and this was his explanation : “Ye see, wan swore wan thing, and the ither anither; 8*, ye see,I give ’em both the hinifit of the poubts,and split the "difference, which makes just twenty dollars for the plaintiff.’ ” Tm: -â€"â€"â€"th Kansas infantry acquired a rare reputation for plundering during the great rebellion. A number of Kansas regiments marching through Missouri, revenged them- selves upon their old enemies ; but this regi- ment had great genius for plunder, which the camp steries used to illustrate with gen- uine ‘Ameri'can exaggeration. One ofthem w" . v.” “WV... ran thus: In an Arkansas campaign a gen- eral officer found the entire -â€"th grouped around a saw-mill and weeping like Niobcs. ” \th ” ‘10 "(3171111 Hum.“ :,. ALA m. A THOUGHTFUL BOY.â€"A certain Sunday- school teacher was in the habit of making a. collection in his juvenile class for mission- ary objects. He was not a little surprised one day to find a counterfeit shilling among the coppers; and on asking the class who gut it there, the donor wan pointed out to im by one who had seen him deposit. it. “ Didn’t you know that this was good for nothing?” said the teacher. “ Yes” answe- red the boy. “Then what did you put it in the box for? ” The boy 00on replied, “I didn’t's’pose the little heathens would know the difference; so I thought it would be just; as good for them.” “ Why,” he asked, “ what1 is zjthe matter ‘1” â€"â€"“Matter enough,” sobbed one enterprising volunteer “ thus far we have never left anything behind us; but we_ can’t possibly steal this saw-mill.” QUIx was once at a small dinner-party- The master of the house, pushing a delicious pudding towards the wit, begged him to taste it. A gentleman had just before greedily helped himself to an immense piece ofit. “ Pray, ” said Quin, looking first at the gen- tleman’s plate, and then at the dish, “wlnch is the pudding? ” A SAGACIOUS SAYING.â€"Half a much enduring quadruped, and a. very innocent beveregv7 four-fifths of a disaster at sea, the great man beheaded, the tip of the canary’s tail, and three quarters of an hour, .a. juvenile fowl, three-fourths of any noted morasses, a mutilated insect, half the por- tion of: hair which we are desn'ed to take appertaining to Time; the minutely par- ticular part. of speech, the inquisitive letter, a leportine animal beheaded, the pent-house men carry about them, Caroline’s head, the lettel which is not Grecian; and abbreviated Edward’s last portion. A DEVOTEE of Bacchus was overheard the other night thus addessing his hat which had fallen from his head : “IfI pick you up, I fall; it I fall, you will not pick me up; then Ileave you 5'” and he staggered proudly away. AN INDEFINITE ARTICLEâ€"If you are a very precise man, and wish to be certain of what you get, never marry a girl named Aim, for we have the authority of the best gram- mariaus that ” Ann is an iudcliniic article. ” THe following novel intimation appears in a Quebec paper at the end of one ofits marriage announcements :â€"*“No cards I No cake I! No wine! ! !” A PHOTOGRAPHER in Suffolk was recently visited by a young woman, who with sweet simplicity asked, “ How long does it take to get my photograph after leaving my mea- sure? ” Of y’dur neighbor’s house and life? How he lives, and how he doesn’t. And just how he treats his wife ? How he spends his time of leisure, Whether sorrowful or guy; And where he goes for pleasure, To the concert or the play?
