Arrjru, relates tho following: Night before last, as the moon rose over the hills nnd dusty tree tops, gilding the spires of our beautiful eily with her' silver rays, there might have been seen upon the roof of an Etyptian cottage, which is tint and covered with pure white gravel ind pitch, a couple of lovers, seated and enjoying the beauty cd" the scene, and, Though few the hours, the hnppy moments few, So warm with heart, no rich with love they flew. That their full souls forgot to roam, And rested there as in a dream of home. The sun during the day had been very warm, and thus they met to spend the fleet fleeting - ing fleeting hours of twilight, enjoying tho pleasant breeze .that flouted up from the magnolia garden lieneath, and interchanged those soul-longinga nnd warm allections for each other, the lovers sat ; with one arm he en encircled - circled encircled the waist of the fair creature at his side: "Her little hand lay lovingly, confidingly in his," and all pass lovingly and quietly until the bell tolled the midnight hour. . "None but the loving and beloved. . Should be awake at that sweet hour.' The tolling of the bell reminded them that, 7 Tired Nature's sweet restorer, balmy sleep," was requisite for lovers as vraV. as ethers. Still seated near each other the plighM vows were exchanged and staled with kesvs, like "Linked sweetness long drawn ouL" At length after many efforts to sever those pleasures, the transported lovers found they were bound to each other by more sticking bonds than lovers vows. The hot sun had melted the pitch, and after sitting so long, and the night air having cooled the resinous matter, they were "ituck fast." The young gentleman tlrst attempted to disengage him himself, - self, himself, but found like Aunt Jemima's plaster, u the more you try to pall it oif, the tighter it sticks the faster." The young lady then tried to get up, which she did, minus the skirl of her drer-s and all of her underclothes as far as the "tilterss.'' In this plight she at attempted - tempted attempted to remove her disconsolate partner, but it was no use he couldn't come. After some parley he concluded he could manage it bv (dipping off his pant. Accordingly he asked of bis companion the loan of a pair of pant until he could get home. She thought her pa's would do if "they were not too long. With this information he slipped off his boots, and looking his suspenders, drew him himself - self himself out nf his pants as easily as possible, and the disconsolate couple took "themselves down stairs in a very blushing manner. The lady procured as quickly as possible a pair of her fathers pants, which were run into pretty quick, and the Adonis decamped with his pants rolled up about six inches. The joke was too good to bo kept; by little and littlo it leaked out until the truth had to como to exculpate the happy innocents. UXCLE TOHT OX TIIK MlSKlUES OF PRINT PRINTING - ING PRINTING a Xewipapeb. 'I pity the printer," said my uncle Toby. "He's a poor creature," re joined Trim. "How so 7" Batd my uncle.

In the negligence of a moment, perhaps a paragraph jiops in upon him; ho hastily and he is ruined to ail intent and purposes.

"And please your honor," continued Trim, elevating his voice, and striking into an im imploring - ploring imploring attitude, and please your honor, this is not the whole." "Go on, Trim, said my uncle feelinglj-. "The printer, Fotnetitnca will," pursued Trim, "hit upon a piece that pleases him, and he thinks it cannot but go down with sub subscribers - scribers subscribers ; but, alas, sir, who can calculate up upon - on upon the human mind ? He inserts it, and it is all over with him. They forgive other?, but thoy cannot forgivo a printer. He has a hast to print for, and every one sets up for a critic The pretty miss exclaims, ""Whydonthogivc us more poetry, marriages and bon imU Away with these stale pieces." The politi politician - cian politician claps his specs on his nose, and runs it over in search of some violent invective; ho finds none; ho takes oft his stcs, folds them, sticks them in his pocket, and declares the paper good for nothing but to burn. Every one thinks it ought to bo printed expressly for himself, as he is a subscriber; and yet af after - ter after all this complaining, would you believe, it, sir," said the honest corporal beseechingly -"would you believe it, there are some sul sul-scribcrs - scribcrs sul-scribcrs who do not hesitate to cheat tho printer out of his pay f Our army swore ter terribly - ribly terribly in Flanders, but they never did any anything - thing anything so bad as that.'' "Never !" responded my uncle Toby, em emphatically. - phatically. emphatically.
