Galignain’s Muscngcr, a paper, tells the following curious stor-y‘—Annette, a young chambermaid of Marne, had kept the rooms of two wealthy Bachelors for several years. She wanted to get married, but her lover was so poor that she duret not venture. These bachelors were brothers ; and one day they had sold some property which they owned jointly, and the money, amounting to I00’000 francs, was paid in bills of the Bank of France. too late to take it to Paris that afternoon. At midnight a great noise was heard in the house. Annette ran and rapped at her master’s door, saying. that robbers were at work below. “You have a un," says she, “take it and shoot the villains !” Both the bachelors were much frightened. One began to barricade the door, while the other removed it tile from the hearth to secrete the batik bills'—"Fools,"said the girl, “ they will murder us all—give me the gun!" She seized ti double bat-relled un which laid upon the shelf and started down the stairs, the two frightened men watchin her tnov_ements without saying a word. 1I’rescntly bang went the grin and a groan was heard—barig went the second barrel, and now it screech of pain resounded through the house. Annette soon came tri ping up stairs and asked for powder and ball to reload. The astonished bachelors gave her the requisite charges, but soon steps were heard retreating it-om the house. All three then went cautiously down stairs when lo l a pool of blood showed that one robber at least had paid the pennty ofbis rash attempt. In the morning it was plain to be seen that the body ofthe unhappy victim had been dragged by his companions to the river. Blood marked the whole distance, and the police were instantly on the alert for the arrest ofthe living thieves, and the dis- covery of the body of the dead one. All was vein, however, but the intrr-pidity ofthe poor girl was discussed for and near. The grateful bachelors, knowiii that Annette wanted to marry, prepare to give her a dowQ|-_ H Ah, Monsieurs,” replied ‘she, “how can I leave you? you may again be attacked by robbers ,, “But we will not, nevertheless, slttnd between you and happi- ness; here are thirty thousand francs: you saved otir lives and richly deserve '.he_money. Ifyou choose to live in this house with your husband, we shall repair the lower part for that purpose, and you can then be paid for keeping our rooms neatly as at present." Annette did not hesitate to accept the dower and the house. It was many years before the real facts relative to this midnight attack of robbers came to light. The rich bachelors were then both dead, and had willed Annette anotlicr thirty thousand francs. the robbers, it appears, were not of plural ntimber, but onl Annette's lover alone. The blood was from a lamb that had been killed for the occasion. Indeed, the whole was but a ruse by the two lovers_ to open the hearts and the purses of the rich bachelors. Miittitsu AND Sttvot.r:.—We extract the subjoined from aspeech delivered by Mr. Alexander Frizell. in reply to the toast of “The Ladies,” at the recent banquet of the Armagh Quarter Sessions Grand Jury. Ireland. Mr. Frizell, aller some introduc- tory remarks, said: “I remember reading an anecdote which I cannot for-bear men- tioning, it so beautifully illustrates the force of female alfection. When the Emperor Conrad besie ed Hensburg, _the women of the city foun it was impossible the place could hold out. They, therefore. unant- mottsly petitioned the Emperor to allow them to leave the city with ongnps much as each could carry with her. Emperor, believing that the burden of each would necessarily be light conceded to. their re- quest. A tlag of truce was hoisted, and silence prevailed, when one of the city gates llew open. The women marched out. rank and file—and what do you think they were carrying? Peace be to their ashes, and honor to their memory! Every one of them had her husband on her back. (Cbeers.) The Emperor was so stricken by their conjugal fidelit that be restored the wives back to their usbande. ind "I0 city to all its former privile es. Now, Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, ask you,_could all the bachelors in the wide world this day produce an action comparable to that? Oh? that I had the reasoning power of Socrates that I might induce these oung men whom I see around me to consu t their own hap- piness, by renounci ivhafie falsely called ‘ single blesscdnees. (G_reas cheering.) Socrates, once, on delivering a lecture to the Athenians, on love and matrimony, pt-eeeed home his sub'ect so powerfully and convincingly on the hearts of his audience. by showing them the comforts and advan- tages the married men s_seseed_over the bachelor-,thet at the one union of his speech. the young teen rose up in a body and solemnly eclared that they. would carry on the first available opportunity. —Of course, ledieswlll latte the lrst to declare their love. merit, ‘like a worm in the bud’ feed on their damask cheek.’ They are like the golden nuggets in aurifer-ious regions—-they will no‘ come to you unsought. Brit, do you seek the inestininble treasure ofa wife, and you will be rewarded by n bliss, the ade- quate description ofwhich would alike defy the pen of poet or the pencil of artist.” (Great cheering.) , INDIVIDUAL Rzsrotrsia,it.i'rv.—Dr. W'iiy- land, npeskin oftho Christians who where dispersed b are fierce persecutions of the Church at erusalem, sa ‘s: “ This little band accomplished more for the conversion of the world than llll the Christians in the present age united have done. Does any otis ask why? “Because every individual,” says he, “felt that the conversion of the world was it work for which he himself. and not an abstraction called the Church, was responsible. In- stead of relying on man for aid, every one looked directly up to God to forward the work. God was thus exalted. His power was confessed, and very soon, in II few years, the standard ofthe cross was carried to every part ofthe then known world.’ SUSPENDERS—'I'HEIR BENEFITS. It I! the prevailing fashion, especially in cities, for men to dispense with suspenders, and support their pantaloons, by having them made to button tightly around the person,above the hips. It is our settled conviction, that this practice isdecidedly detrimental to health. Much has been justly said against tight lacing, as applied to females; and of sus- pending heavy skirts to the hips, by fasten- ing them tightly around the waist or loins, where there are no ribs or other bony frame- work to resist the compressive power. e admit that hallo dozen skirts weigh- ing matiy pounds are worse for the consti- tution of the wearer than the drawers and pantriloons as worn by the men, but worse only because the quantity is greater, and the pressure necessary to sustain them is more. The rinciple is the same. Fe- males should suspend their skirts mainly by the shoulders. The hips of boys and men are constitu- tionolly narrower than these ofthe female; and therefore the clothing thus worn re- uires to be lighter, to prevent slipping own. Around the waist and hips, the very place where freedom ol action and expansion should of all the other parts ofthe tritnk, lie enjoyed, there is tightness, compression, and a destructive lack of freedom. We plant ourselves on this point, and claim that our position cannot be di.-'tut'l)CtI, viz.: the animal economy, from heudto foot, should never be dressed in such a iniinner as in the least degree to cramp the freedom ofany action of the body or limbs. Let this be the rule with all, and one-lialfol our doctors might be spared to cultivate the soil [The above is from the “ New York Phrcnological Journal,” and contains no small amount ofsound sense and solid truth. A case within our own knowledge, ofinlla- mation of the bowels, which resulted int be death oftt young man, '23 years of age, was caused, we believe, by the too tight belting of his pantaloons around his waist. Light elastic suspenders are more comfortable than tight lacing the waist. Evit. Costrisioas.-—Parents cannot be two careful in selecting society for their children, and young men cannot be too choice in their associates. The adage has lost nothing by age which says “ ii men is known by the company he keeps." To young men especially, it is of infinite im- portsnce that they be furnished with com- anions possessing generous hearts and honorable virtuous sentiments. Says the distinguished Robert Hall, in his “ Works," recently published by Harper St Brothers: “ Society is the atmosphere of souls; and we necessarily imbibe from it something which is either infectious or salubrious. The society of various ersons is enjoyed beyond their company, w ilc vice carries a sling in solitude. ‘ho society of the coni- pany you keep in both the indication of your character and the former of it. In company, when the pores of the mind are opened, there requires more guard than usual, because the mind is then passive. Either vicious company will please you or it will not; if it does notdplease you, the end ofgoi will be defeats .
