I tell you, Walter, it wouldn’t do for my wife to be jealous. This eternally constant to any one little bundle ot lace and divinity is an ut- ter impossibility to a man of constitution. I have a natural taste for v ry, do you see ; and tho most I want of a wife is to keep house for me, and take care of things, and give me a little leisure to make myself agreeable to wo- mankind in general. When os more agreeable turns up, why of course then she eau have the privilege of entertaining we, which, with the consolation of knowing that her husband is the’most accomplished laly- killer in town, will, I take it, be ample com- pensation for all her services in my behalf. ut yon see if she were any way jealous she might net think so.” “It would be possible, I should think,” said Walter Everett, «that she might be inclined to disagree with you. 1 should think any wo- man who Joved you would naturally object to such an arrangement.”” “Ob, pshaw, Everett!’ exclaimed Harry, “that proves you to be a novice. Don’t you kaow that love in a female heart is made up of just two elements—vanity and sel -sacrifice. Just give a woman a husband she is proud of, and you—or, that is, you might not be able to —but a man of my accomplishments can coax her imto anything under the sun. Wait till I ——* Il show you how to manage a wife. I'll show you how to unite all the freedom of a bachelor with all the privil Walter smiled, and ywff in silence. The two young men were elerks in a large mercantile establishment in the city. They eccupied apartments in the same house, and were generally on very close and intimate terms. Perhaps it may not be necessary to in- form the reader that Harry was something of a coxcomb, though he was by no means as im- moral as might be inferred from his own ac- count of himself. This Walter knew, and he could therefure listen to his occasional strains of gasconade with the utmost serenity, even though perfectly aware at the time that the speaker entertained serious ideas of finally be- Stowing the ineffable hfnor of his name and Protection upon a certain litile cousin of his own, Miss Susie Stanton. That his confidence went so far as (o lead him to conceal from the said young lady the sentiments so frequently expressed, we cannot vouch. Indeed, the writer rather has the idea that the two fre- quently talked over in private this unfortu- nate failing of their matual friend, and often studied to devise some method of reducing the Proportions of Harry's organ of variety. Nothing, however, very effectual was accom- plished during the courtship, and in process of time Mr. Harry Vane entered the state of mat- rimony, under the full conviction that his lov- ing Susie not one spark of jealousy, and that ayes mb ‘hal re would lead her to accept with unfeigned grati- tude and joy whatever attentions it might please him to bestow upon her, and to preserve @ discreet silence in regard to whatever she might see in his outgoings and incomings that was f or mysterious. To do Susie justice, she was not naturally cf & jealous disposition; but besides her innate awtability in that respect, she had a little bit of that shy, womanly pride, which made her resolve that she wouldn't be jealous. No, in- deed, she never would be = ted at as a jeal- = = fe, pry should Mr. H: Vane the pleasure of insinuating that he managed his wife, that she was duly instructed and trained at home to look conveniently in the other direction, whenever he chose to open the invineible battery of his fascinations upon any innocent and unsuspecting young female. No, no; the little lady was too acute for that. 1t therefore happened that whenever at a ball or party Mr. Harry Vane made himself particularly agreeable to any lady, Mrs. Harr ‘ane also cultivated the same individual. If Mr. Harry Vane only danced with the young lady. or escorted her out to supper, Mrs Harry Vane contented berself with the most amiable inquiries after the said young lady's health, and gracious hopes that the family at home were quite well. If Mr. Vane danced twice or thrice with the young lady, Mrs. Vane straightway invited her to call, and intimated that she should very soon give herself the pleasure of visiting the young lady, and if matters went still further, and Mr. Harry Vane indul, in a little tete-a-tete or flirta- tion, Mrs. rry Vane immediately fixed a day; and asked the pp Tae’ to tea. E At home, too, if Mr. Harry Vane exclaimed with enthusiasm, “By Jove, but that Miss- West has s splendid fgure'’’ Mrs. V. replied with equal enthusiasm, “ She bas, indeed, and she danced admir: 3 Or if Harry remarked that “Araminta Waters was decidedly the handsomest woman at Mrs. Morgan's party,” Susie added, gently, ‘ that rumor said she was ee i: = as she was hand- some inating" this sly way of fighting fire with mearcka had decsiehed ate tinguivhing a halt dozen in chants in the bosom of her liege ral pal Ager the same time the uniform sweetness and amiability of her own conduct could not fail to deepen the adwiration and respect which Harry had pos- sessed for her when he married her. So it went on for a year or two, and Susie found herself a mother. Afvcer that, things seemed to mend a little; but baby’s charms soon lost their power, and Susie's trial took another form Her loving heart, which was constantly, though quietly, watchful of Har- ry s lightest movement, was wounded at its most sensitive point. Harry frequently lett home without inviting her to accumpany him, or even informing ber of his destination. Much as her anxious fears were startled by thisgnew shadow upon her domestic peace, Susie had the diseretion to say nothing, but meanwhile to double her assiduity in winning him to home leasures. All her efforts, however, availed 7 little; at least one evening in the week he continued to spend away from her. At first she was afraid he might be entering upon some course of dissipation, but careful observation soon convinced her that whatever sin might be laid to his charge, the love of liquor was not one; and as drinking forms an ingredient of neirly all forms of dissipation, she finally came to the conclasion that, as of old, his espiia Saty inconstant heart was stra: after some new light of female beauty. It is ible that at this juncture she may have en cousin Walter into contiBanee. aes One A of a Benedict ’’ away at his cigar reading bis newspaper after breakfast nearly nine o'clock, and then, dressing himself cerefaliy in bis handsomest suit, carelessly bade his wife good morning, and strolled lei- surely up the road, instead of going down it, to his place of business.

Mrs. Harry Vane tril lightly over the pier, followed by Mary and baby, and the next moment the gallant steamer with its holiday bax aay was fairly under way. Mrs. Vane walked leisurely to the fore part of the vessel, and there, ap- arentiy very much to her surprise, discovered Mie Vane sitting in most attentive proximity to a handsome and showy youn; lady, who was evidently quite the slave of Mr. Vane’s fas- Soe 4 “Why, good morning, Harry!”’ exclaimed Mrs. Vane, in her rweetat laf most cordial tones; “this is, indeed, a delightful surprise. Thad not anticipated of your company. After you left home I happened to notice the adver- tisement of the excursion, and baby has seemed so ailing lately, that I thought it might do him godd t take an excursion ; so I dressed myself as quickly as possible, and hurried down here.”” What could Mr. Harry Vane say in reply to this most amiable wife-like greeting? Mrs. Vane was not at a Joss, however, to fill up the pause which his hesitation occasioned. * This lady is a friend of yours, I presuame— introduce me to her, Harry,” said she, turning to the Indy. ‘“ Mr. Vane's circle of friends Previous to our marriage was so very exton- sive, that [have not even yet made the ac- quaintance of all of them. 1 hope, however, to know them all in the course of time, for nothing gives me greater pleasure than to en- tertain Uarry’s friends. Your name is ——? 1 didn’t quite understand.’’ ‘Miss Wentworth,”’ replied the lady, bow- ing stiffly. “Ah! yea, Miss Wentworth,” said Mra. Vane, eomplacently. ‘I do not recollect of hearing Harry speak of you, but it is all the same; my memory is very trescherous; and, indeed, he might have mentioned your name. casually, you know, a dozen times, and still f might bave forgot it. But bless me! where is the baby? Mary, come here.”’ Mary answered the call, and placed the blue- eyed little wonder in the arms of its delighted mamma “‘Mamma’s precious little darling! Was it warm ?—<o it was Mamma will take off its hat —so she will. There—does it see its papa? —sthere, so it does, and knows him, too— precious angel! See! Miss Wentworth, see how well the litile darling knows its father, and it isn’t four months old yet.’’ And Mrs Vane danced the chubby, red-faced little thing up and down in Mr. Vane’s face, and asked, enthusiastically: ‘Didn’t Miss Wentworth think he was just the image of his pa?” There were several of Harry's acquaintances on board, by whow the affair was thoroughly understood ; and it was not long until the story passed from lip to lip, and smiles and titters and jokes at poor Harry's expense circulated in every direction. He excused himself as speedily as possible from the society of the ladies, and walked moodily to the other end of the boat, and there stood contemplating what he should do to extricate himself from this di- emma. ~» What the deuce am I to do?” ha solilo- quized. ‘ To blow out at her, as 1 should like to, would only raise a row and circulate the story, and I can’t rid of her, for the boat won't put back, I suppose, on my account. Gad! the water wasn’t so hot, I’d drown myself. To — at red-faced little imp with her too! It isa om enough, ; of course it couldn’t be anything else, and be my child; and she looks deuced pretty herself, too, to-day. She’s a vast deal prettier than Madge Wentworth ever was—the bag- gage! If I evergetsafe out of this scrape, catch me risking my reputation for another bold flirt like ber.” Meanwhile Miss Wenthworth, who possessed a deal of womanly tact in her way, had over- come in a measure the embarrassment of her first meeting with Mrs. Vane, and had entered very affably into conversation with her. The baby, as if determined to do its part, was as Sweet-tempered as its mamma, and coved and laughed to the infinite delight of Miss Went- worth, who was, or pretended to be, exceed- ingly fond of pets. Mrs. Vane’s amiability was perfectly irresistible, and when Mr Vane returned he found the two ladies on the beat possible terms. When dinner was announced, Mrs. Vano ealled to Mary to take the baby, and, rising, exclaimed, ** Mr. Vane, give your arm to Miss Wentworth,’ at the same time appropriating the other to her own use, “and we will hurr in todinner. This stiff breeze gives one suc an 4 »? At dinner, Mrs. Vane’s first attentions were given to Mias Wentworth, and the least failure upon the part ot Mr. Vane (who, to tell the truth, was a little absent-minded,) to observe the wants of that young lady, was reprimanded by Mrs. Vane. ‘“* My dear, Miss Wentworth will take some more fowl,”’ said Mrs. Vane. ‘larry dear, help Miss Wentworth to some of these delicious = Miss Wentworth, allow me to assist you some of this sauce; I assure you it is de- licious.’” After dinner, the two ladies, with the baby, retired to the ladies cabin, and Harry enjoyed an hour’s immunity from the society of either. He retired aft to enjey (!) his Havana. Let us hope that its fragrance served, in some meas- ure, to calm his troubled mind. It was een aie when the excursionists returned, and Harry called a cab for the Ix- dies, and directed the driver to his own residence. “ Harry, Py dear, how can you be so impo- lite?’ said Mrs. Vane. *‘ We must see Miss Wentworth home first by all means. She has Leen complaining of fatigue for the last two hours, and I must protest against her being anven a mile or two out of her way upon my account.” Harry was obliged to acquiesce, and Mrs. Vane had the satisfaction of leaving Miss Went- worth at her own door, and bidding her a most affectionate farewell, with the hope that she had enjoyed the duy, and would experience no incon- venionce from the fatigue it hud occasioned her. Ten minutes later, Harry Vane was strotch- ing his weary limbs upon a sofa in bis own quiet parlor. Mrs. Vane bustled about and es & most delicious tea for her loving jord. At first his vexation betrayed him into a few unamiable remarks; but the real tender- ness of Susie's manner, as she handed him the smoking cup of Souchong upon the lounge, and soothed and petted away the headache which him, silenced his irritability, and won bim back to good humor. That was the last of Harry Vane’s wander- ings. The name of Miss Wenworth was never mentioned in his house; and save his penitent hor only answer was the kiss of peace and trust, and a glanee more eloquent than any speech.) there was no allusion to his faults. Susie is gray-haired pow, and her failing va oF is supported by the tenderness of her grand-daughters; and it may be that to them she sometimes repeats the story of the woman who wouldn't be jealous.
