Neither could master sleep for thinking, selfish soul ! of tJio mime. But I will do him tho credit of admitting that mingled with persoual bewnilinjra was a degree of pity lor the lito ot s lavisp ton wmcn awaited his "into helpmeet ot her brother's house, whero there was, besides, a possible chance that she might be at any tuno supplanted by a new sister-in-law. So upon tbi next moruioft the bnsbaud and wife drovo pver to Counselor Sabin's iu the high-backed green wagon with tbepump-kic-uiid-railk horse heartily agreebg, fifthly, in pity for each other. 'ye es, ye-es ! As I understand it, you two wish to divide your joint possessions and go each yotir wny, without any fortral divorce-ijient Y a al, wa-al ; let us see, let us see !" said Squire Sttbin, referring to a paper which ho had already filled with minutes. "Five cows j what will yoii do about tlicm T make bsef of one Rad divide the meat, hey V "Xo, I would not consent to that It is my choice ; he has throe cows ; bewillfind more use fcr them tbun I shall, being that two cows pjak" nothing ofa dairy by themselves ; while my share, be it less or more, will work right in with my brother's," put in the gocd dame. 1 shan't agree to any such division. If I fiud I need more cows 1 can buy them ; mid I am not wi ling she should go away empty-handed. She won't find she has got any too ranch to make herself comfortable, with the most she can have,' returned be, Thus they now begun to disajn ee again. ; "1 am willing for any thing which i fair, but 1 shan't couseut to such a one-sided dividing ofT as he speaks of. I rtiean to take a reasonable view, and I want he should do the same ; and ho kuows, if lie look, at the matter candidly, that hn will find more use for three cows than I shall. :-'o there is no eood in multiplying words about it, for I shau't come back of what I have said P protested Mistress Futfer, resolutely. . f . "II u mph I If you can not agree to live togoher, you must ngree to separate, yon know,"' interposed the lawyer, who testifies that contention of mutual concession mny be as difficult to settle satisfactorily as strife of mutual greed. ' . ' Silenced, but not convinned, Good-man Fuller hHd his peace hereupon, while he in-nardlv reflected that all the Good-wife isid could not prevent his driving this bone of coutsntiou tne tntra cow over iu ner uroiu-er'i burn in due ason. So he allowed her face to glow with satisfied triumph without any farther protest. ' , But passing down along Squire Sabins list, th swine proved qnite an unmanageable Id theii turn as the kiue. ' "I have no notion of taking the fat liog and one of tbe little pigs. Whut can I do, I should like to know, in the Cut place, with such pile of meat ? And when you have fed that porker np to this time, and thoouht o mach of him, 1 slm'ut bear a word to taking him, any way.;i Jovf that is so !" affirmed the (jjood wile. , On te bef bund, the Oood mnn was eqnally decided, "Mother couldn't try up the fat into lard and take care of the meat, if we kept it i and the pork U ortli as much fur her to sell as it n to tne," be said. ,; "Te es ! Wa-al. t would suggest that, as yon two can't seem to nprso even to disagree, you make a compromise.. Mrs. Puffer hud tbe mutter of the cows her own ny ; ap pose, then, Mr. Puffer sins himself iu the pig iiii his neo for a fresh start "Come, now, that is more than fair I" aa-wntt.1 Mr. Pun'iT ; xlthongh, of coarse, the prrant hypocrite was Ml the time rensciocl in Lis inmost henrt- and nntmost, too, fof that nuttrr that he hud never for 4 moment in-Md?4 V hf b decision of good. Mra, P, iu tho la it dispute Therein you see a silent partner has an advantago iu an argument ; for good Mrs. P. herself, having no power of knowing this mental' reservation, wan obliged reluctantly to concede.' Thus, inch by inch, and animal by animal, t iny fought their way through tbe live stock ; and coming after a while to the personal property, found that to be even more rerrnctory. "He must have two bed-quilts and two puirs of sheets to my one. I sha'nt give my consent to any thicg else ; for bis mother is g ttiug too old and fcehlu for quilting, und wi aving, aud tbe like of that work," affirmed tbe Uood-wil'o, with cheerful benevolence "Of course I sha'ut take ber settisg-out, aud ihu ueed'ut proposo it I" protested Good man. Mrs. P. opeued her mouth with a face which evidenced a burst of words at Clearly as ever a black cloud betokeued a burst of ruin. "You needn't say a word for nor against. I tell jou I won't hear to it, even if you run out a case as long and us strong as the Moral Law !" added hor lord, with unusual fervor. "il-m m I ye-es I Wa-al, wa-al, my advice to you two good people is, seoingyan etui not agree to separate, to get into your wugcu and ride borne together," said Wise Counselor Sa-bin, at last, cleaning his pen with his hair aud twisting tbe paper of minutes into a cigar-lighter. . , I ho good people were finally persuaded to follow tbiH advice, which proved the soundest he ever gave ; and paying the price of the fatted swine for it, they clambered into the high-banked wagon aud rode i ff, with u joint feeling of conscious relief, yet too shame faced to speak during the whole distunce home. When they arrived there Hose came running to tbe cud of tho lane which led to the house tq give litem a gruff bark of welcome, and Mrs. P.'s heart warmed with pleasure, fche even stopped to put him and call him ft nice fellow upon her way into the porch in full view of Mr. Puffer, who felt grateful to the very tips of his callous fingers for this un wonted token of friendliness, while Hosn jumped and whisked awkwardly around, whining wilh delight. Theu she disappeared through tho doorway into the kitchen ; and when she saw the homely room and its furniture looking so fumiliur mil kindly, us they, in their way, gave a mute welcome home again to their mistress, she sat down in her old splint rocking chnir and had a hearty cry. i heu shb brushed uway ber tears, which were by no means bitter ones, and raked opened the very coul3 upon the stone hearth which she had covered so carefully before leaving Ibe room forever, us she belioved, hung the tmi-kettlo upon tl crate, aud drew out tho table for EUppOf. So when tli husband cumo in from iinbitr-nes.Miig the horso ttnd feeding tho cows and nil's, instead of tho dreary stillness ha had been bargaining for, he found the room alivo with warmth and chceriness. Tho fragrance of new-made tea mingled with thnt of stewsd peaches and broiliug beer, which sputtered 1 pleasant sort of accompaniment to tbe hum' minir tea-kettle : while tho Uoou-wile, with a satisfied fact, was putting a plate of smoking ho; flap jacks, buttered, aud sugared, and qunr tercd, upon the table, nnd singing its blilhc ami light of heartus a May-bird. To tell the truth, the weak-minded woman bud actually been kissing, with tears in ber eyes, tlio clumsy old rolling pin, which, from its rough finish, had been to her like a thistle iu the shoe for years. "Well, wife, this seems like getting home aguin after a long journey," suit! Mr. Puffer, wurmiug his hawis and ins heart also at we blaze, and lookini r.bout with a smile npou his faee which quite transfigured it And so it wus. Madum tne inomer came indeed with hur asthma and her pulsy, but it was only to sit in the easiest chair in the warmest corner. A hunsrv gray cat appear ed also very mysteriously, which Mrs. Puffer tried at first to drive away, but which Mr. Puffer treated like Vice, which, seen too oft, is first endnred, theu pitied, then embraced. So having found betimes, as many a married nair has found too late, alas 1 that how ever difficult union may be, disunion is still more difficult and hazardous, they havo jogged un and down so comfortably together that, to sea them now.one would never suspect, as I said at first, that they Lad ever been of diverse minds. A Model Composition- To boys aud girls, who are perplexed to know what to writo abont, and how to write it, when inquired by their toacher to bring a composition," we recoommend the following model : Winter. Winter is the coldest season of tb year, becun.-e it conies in the winter. In some countries winter comes in summer, and then it is very pleasanL 1 wish winter cnsie in summer in this country. Then I could go skating barefoot, and slide down bill in liuen trowsers. Wo could suow ball without our fingers getting cold and. men who go out sleigh riding1 wouldn't have to stop at every tavern to get warm, as they do now. It snows nioro in winter than it does in any other season of tbe year. This is because so many cutters and sleighs are made at this time. Ice grows much better in winter than in summer, which was nn inconvenience before the discovery of ico houses. Water thnt is left nut of doors is apt to fre?ze pt this season. Some peoplo take in their wells and cis terns on a cold night, and keep them by tbe fire, so they won't freeze. Skating is great fun in winter, Ths boys get their skates on wben tbo river is frozen over, and race, play tag, break through the tee and get wet all over (they pet drowned sometimes),' fall nnd break their heads, nnd enlov thtmselves uianv other ways. A wick ed boy once borrowed my skates and ran off with them, and 1 coutdn 1 eaten Dim. Moth er said a judgment would overtake him some dav. Judgment will have to be pretty lively on" its legs if it dpes, for be runs bully. There uin't much sleigh riding except in the winter folks don't seem to care much about it in warm weather. The trrown qp boys and girls like to go sleigh riding. The boys generally drive with one hand, and IHp tbo girls to hold their muffs with the other. Brother Bob let me go along a little wsy once when ho took Celia Crane oat a sleigh riding, and I thoueht he paid tnoiw attention to h ddinz the muff thnn he did lo holding the borseK. , .. , ..... , . Snow balling is another winter sport I have suow-balli'd in thB summer, l-ul we used stones aod hard tipples. It isn't so amusing as it is in Winter somehow, , - But enough.

Hampton, Va., Nov. 15th, 18C4. Election being past, I left homo on the morning of the 9th, and after a pleasant car ride through some very fair sections of tho good old Buckeyo Stato, across the line, through the lion city, aud the growl mouu tain scenery of contral Pennsylvania, I reach ed tho city of Brotherly Love on tho evening of the 0th. Tbe duy following, I was shown around tbe city by Friend Gurrett.T-Chair- rnnn of Instruction Committee, and visited several places of biatoric iuterest, not the least of which was the grave of Benjamin Franklin, marked by a simple gray slab resting bori- lontally upon the grave, without inscription except the nume, usd that is sufficient ; for his name, merely,' embodies more meaning than could be expressed by a voluminous and eloquent epitaph. But it was my intention to merely notice n few points of iuterest ou my route, and direct my remarks principally to the condition and appearance of the contrabaads at, and near Fortress Monroe. I left Philadelphia on the morning of the 12th, nnd by noon wns in Baltimore.

Of tbe better pints of the city I cannot speak, as my business. (lid not lead mo very far from the water. After some running from one office to another, I succeeded in getting a puss to Fort Monroe, and took the bout ot four o'clock A glorious rida we bad of it iu tho bright moonlight, down tho Chesr-peake ; with just enough wind to make the steamer roll 0 little, nnd to make the "white-caps" show their honry beads for n iles on miles in every direction. Tbe dawn of morning brought us in sight of tho fort known us the Itip-ltiips, which looked qnite fiirniidublei though yet unfinished, risiug abruptly from the water, and frowning deliaucj at us its we rmssed. Fort Monroe is, however, much larger, aud in all respects more imposing. At sevpii o'clock the boat touched tho wharf. stepped ashore aud found myself iu the midst of vcrv decided 7 military scenes, alter a slight delay in procuring a pass, I took the horso car which runs from the fort to this village, aud in a few minutes found myself aaong crowds of colored soldiers and raw otnitrabauds. Thare tiro a greut number of those here, mostly such as have employment, und are self-supporting. The colored soldiers, for tbo most part, are fine looking fellows, and very full of lifo aud mirth. There is a store here for the bcnoDt of tho Freed-meu, whore the goodi orO scld just so as to cover the actual cost. As tho Government furnishes free transportation for the goods, the storekeepers ure not allowed to sell to any exceut the Frcedmou. Yet even with this re striction the sales are rapid, the daily receipts varyin from $100 to $1000. As the sales are 11II for cash, this clearly proves that the negroes can take care of themselves. They are nearly all silf-supporting ot this pluce j some, however, who aro very old or infirm, nnd some of tbo younger children, receive rations from the Government. This is indeed an encouraging stato of affairs. I have not yet visited uny of tbo schools, and cannot spJak. in regard to that subject, but will defer that till a future time, when I will havo had some experience- in teaching1. And besides, there are not as mocy schools ip operation hero 03 in Yorktown. I hope to be able to write a more interest ing and less hurried lotter when I get settled.

Grant has just been on a business visit to Xew York: Before leaving, thn General called on Gen. Scott, and had an interesting conference. Geu. Scott presented bim with a copy of his autobiography, written on the ily-lenf "from tho oldest to tho ablest General iu tho world.' To n gentleman of the city (Jen. Grant said on DuiKiav: i lie uonietieracy is a mere shell. 1 know it lam sure of it. It is a ho! low shell, aud Sheiman will prove it to you." Tbe calm modest consciousness of power with which this was said, more than the words, con veyed to bis visitor an unqualified, conviction of the truth of tho General's remarks. In answer to a question whether, iu his opinion, 90 days would brirg the end, he said, with a grim smilo, "I am not a 90 day man; hut we shall see what shall happen in six months." Tub usnal mode of expressing grief for departed relatives and friends omong the an cients was by rending the clothes, by laying Msido the externals of rank and honor, by go ing unshaved, and by neglecting certain of tbe ordinary duties of lifo, As mankind became mors practical, it was considered that the purpose of mourning might be sufflciently carried out by the adoption of some particu lar color of dress.

The poor "President" of "the Southern Confederacy" has evidently a most unooui for table set of subjects, who- aro ino;e inclined to reign over him, than to bo reigned over by him. If mere abuse can muke him miserable, he must by this time havo reached a depth of dolorous oespondency, for not only is ho savagely' laceiated in tho newspaper, but even in "Coagrcss," it seems to be rather than else a favorite diversion to exoriate him. Tho nomo of Foote is suggestive of kicks, and many kicks does Mr. Footo, of what is called the 'House of Pvepresontatives," bestow upon Mr, Davis, who is declared "to gecupj the namo position as President Lincoln, and all because Davis proposed to emancipate those blacks who should fitrlit and bleed (by their master's orders) for tho "Confederacy " The very next day Mr. Foote resumed his st.ioturoa, and attacked Mr. Davis' proposition that Congress should commit all tho newspapers to the management, supervision, and censorship of the military authorities. Mr, Davis was charged with, "a couspiracy against tho liberty of tho presa" with a desire to dictate "what opinions us to pnhlic men und measures shall go forth daily and weekly to our fellow-citiscns" with "asking for power which no king nor queen, nor imperial potentate in ail the world does now possess" with making a speech at Macon which was a most disgusting specimon of fustian and bill ingsgate oratory with mining at tho usurpation of unconstitutional authority anil C,!inlly and ierociously suid Mr. Footo. "I hold in contempt him and his whole tribo of 6crvitora aud minion The newspapers ihcnisclves aro not one whit more polite than Mr. Foote. The Jiichmonil, Examiner intimates that if "the President" is not just a little nioro careful, he will be remorselessly assassinated. The Jiit limnml Wh!y considers the proposition of the President a "mon strous, and usk: "Will tho Congress of the Cocfodcruto States consent 1 1 prostitute the eatiro picas of the Confederacy to the pleiisuro of tin Ejccttivo?" The editor of J7te Whig already facto himself with a hook in his mouth. Also with a ring in his nose. He foresees his pupcr broken up, himself and his printers trundled off to tho trenches, his typo knocked into pi, aud all bccau.se ho will not cclo-brato the virtues and glory of tlio Executive. . If our words could reach them, we should icspectfully sUcgest to those peppery persons, editorial nnd legislative, thut when they suppose the objects of the Confederacy, over whibb, Mr. Davis has tho agonizin; misfortune to preside, to bo personal i'recdon., freedom of speooh, freedom of thought, freedom of printing, free-of writing, or any other freedom whatsoever, they labor under a delusion closely bordering upon denieutiu. Tho very purpose of the rebellion is Input down, finally and forever, all that kind of radical, revolutionary, socialistic nonsense, and to confide the care or socioty, ol its demarcations and discipline, its mental, moral mechanical activity, to a select, judicious and illuminated few, with power to bind and to loose, to liivor these and flog those, to elevate at their own swoet, and to do-press at their own sour will. In tho name of consistency, what did those editorial malcontents expect ? They have bcn writing for yntrs against freedom of speech and of the press at the North and r. Washington, they havo charged our newspapers and magazinesand books witli generating looseness ot moral principle, inndcliry. vice in overy lurm, and crnn-.'s incalculable, they have asserted that liberty I rought us only license; that reading was a curse; that the dissemination of knowlo Igo uud information tended oflly to anarchy; and now, when poor Mr. Davis proposes to act upou those very opinions, and to mitigate tho evils of newspapers by a vigorous military censorship, and thus preserve tho brains, tho bodies, nnd tho heans of the ignorant masses committed o his cure fiom the contamiuut.iug influence of newspaper speculations, these vory philosophers suddenly Change their opiuions, as rogues do cf tho law when tho halter begins to draw, and we ore treated to grave protests against the in-tringenpnt upon publio liberties, nud vi olations or the right of freo discussion ! Stuff and nonseno I Davis right Free discussion is just What the Confederacy docs not want. Publio liberty should be a stench in the nostrils of every well wisher of a Slaveholding republic. You can not have the dulcet privileges, and the exvuisite immunities, and the Olympiun serenities ot nn oligarchy, the peaco ol death and only tho vitality of decaying submission creeping and crawled upon, and at the same time the impertinence of individual self sufficiency, tlio awk wardnesa ef private judgement,fhe collision of differingopinions, populr diecuseion and popular decision. Mr. Davis propxbly supposes, and he is justified, in supposing, that when his people determined upon erecting a republic thoroughly aristocrat-icul, or at least aristocraticalia character, they flung far from them the musty an oius of our first Revolutionjnnd as Slavery was to be the chiei corner ftone of the new edifice, thatthe worship of Frasdom (herein was to be of a d.ieidedly limited and carefully restrained description. The blunder which these editors make is iu supposing that thert wa. to bo any place tor them in Mr. Davis' New Jerusalem Their true business is 'to discus , and in the Confederacy dis ju-sion is just what H not wanted, aud it tho fundamental doctrines of the oew authorities aro admitted, is not needed, boean 0 there is really nothiug to discuss. For debate implies change, alteration, advancement ami improvement, und the nuiu idea of the ivonloJeracy is, thnt its leading social instituiiou shall be immutable, as it is already f ully tip to the mark of possible .human jcrfoction.
