EVENING STAR. [ror THE star. To ——. Dost thou remember, ago, My arm wes round thy forin, ‘The fire wax burning on the hearth, And outside beat (he storm? Thy mother smiled upon us then, arm, though "twas wintry weather, And wished that you and I might go Thus, on through life, together. ‘That mother is in Heaven now, And I, an exile, driven Away from thee—oh ! think you not She sees us still from Heaven. She hoped that, though the storm might beat, ; Our bears bad homed each other The fire of lev. oursouls would warm In tuis world, and another. A mother’s wish - > lo ver’s prayer— A promise made with Heaven, Was losi—wias treated like a dream— Oh! had it ne’er been given ! Constancy Wowes or Jaran.—As mi-tt be imagined from the charecter of the government, woman plays no part in the history of Japan, though, allowing for oriental usages, she is treated, on the whole, with tolerable leniency. She oeeu- pies a better position in the family, from not en- tailing any charge at her marriage, asa bride receives no dowry, but, on the contrary, is presented by her husband with a handsome Seealiaie which is invariabiy appropriated by her father. InJapan, therefore, it is consid- ered more fortunate to have daughters than sons, asthe former ultimately prove a very handsome investment. On the birth of a son, the event is commemorated by planting a tree, which, if the little stranger lives, is care- fully tended to the day of his marri: when it is cut‘down, and furnishes material for a chest, designed expressly to hold the wardrobe of the newly married couple. The marriage, as in China and Tartary, is an affair between the parents; and the wishes of the young er ple themselves are never consulted. The bride js usually in her fifteenth year; but m turity being early mop a wedlock may be eontracte! at a greatdeal younger age, and the mother is often a child herself. i is a religious ceremony, and is celebrated with great pomp and many forms, ina public tem- ple, in presence of the priests and idols, and the friends and kindred of both parties. The priest blackens the pearly teeth of the bride, using for this purpose the same indellible li- uer applied to eoal-souttles and other similar Span ware, and this serves, from that time to her death, to notify, like the ring of Europe, that she has entered the marriage state. Stegnine sy tar Norta Star.—A yearor two since, an ebony individual, enswering to the name of ‘Bob,’’ (in fact no one knew whether he had any other name,) was em- ployed by a skipper to assist him in sailing a small schooner on the waters of the Chesa- peake bay. Bob didn’t understand, and couldn’t be made to learn, the compass; so the skipper never dared to trust him to man- - the craft, except nae very light night, when he could point’out to him some headland to steer for. On one vecasion, however, the captein, who had been up two nights pre- viously, conchided he woul? trust the schooner to Be nd take a little nap on deck; so he out the north star to his jet companion, d him to continue sie for it until ked up. After watehing him a short time, and finding that he could keep the yes- sel headed right, the skipper stretched himself upon the deck, and was soon asleep. Shortly afterward # squall arose from the north, and he cratt completely away from her After it had cleared away somewhat. ked around end found the north star at die sailed along ap hour or so, do- ing the best he could, and cogitaiing over how he should get out of his difficulty. But at last he gave it up and shoving his stumbering master inte wakefulness with his foot, shouted, «Cap'n! Cap'n! give me another star to steer by; got clean by that one.” —California Pioneer. Coxsenetioxs.—A conjunction means, liter- ally, a union of meeting together. An ill- sorted iage is a comical conjunction. But netiens are used to connect words and sentences, and have comething to do with the joining of hands. The Siamese twins from a singular conjunetion. A tin pot fastened toa dog's tail is a disagreeable conjunction to the animal. A heppy pair may be regarded as an uncommon conjunction. Conjunctions connect similar moods and tences of verbs, and cases of nouns and pronouns, as: ‘A coat of arms suspended on a wall islike an executed traitor; it is hanged, drawn and quartered.” “Ifyou continue thus to drink brandy and water, and to smoke cigars, you will be like Boreas, the north wind, who takes ‘eold without’ wherever he goes, aud always ‘dows @ cloud’ when it comes in his way.’ ‘Do you think there is anything between him and her?” “Yes; he and she are engage ones.”"—Comie English Grammar. Arrest or Fruir Venpers ror Ssort Weieur.—During yesterday the police arres- ted eleven peach pediers for giving short measure. Some of the measures had false bottoms, others had the bottoms pushed up, while others were so shallow as not to contain half the amount pretended. The prisovers were taken before ostiea Brennan and each fined $2. In default N.Y. Tribune. —_—_————. en ARRIVALS AT PRINCIPAL HOTELS. Willards’ Hetei—n.a. & J.C.
