ADVICE TO VISITS US. -Whenever you make a morning call, never, inadvertently, or with the air of a careless lounger, turn up the sofa cushions, or you will be certain to make both yourstlf and your friends uncomfortable, by the unexpected display of some funny object or another, that those tiresome children have hidden there.Punch. FIRST LOVE.-At the verdant age of seventeen I fell deeply and devotedly in love with Julia Wiggins, a young lady four years my senior. She seemed an angel. We sat one evening in the bower—at pur feet were the cucumber ■vines, above us grew a gourd, around bloomed sunflowers. Floating across the garden came the soft grunting of the pigs. I fell upon my knees, and squash went a mush- melon all over my new trousers. Lovely being," I cried, say thou wilt be mine." I saw the rising blush.-her eyes fell upon the ground, and she gave a sudden start, Look there, you tarnal fool," she said, see how you have splattered my new silk apron.Day Star. I'm afraid of the lightning." murmured a pretty young woman during a storm. Well you may," sighed her des- pairing adorer, when your heart is steel" CURE OF BIGAMY.—By the ancient laws of Hungary, a man convicted of bigamy was condemned to live iath both wives in the same house the crime was, in consequence, extremely rare. An amiable disposition, a cheerful temper, an obliging manner, these are priceless treasures in the female world t iey require watching, culture, pruning-they are the best, the loveliest, and the purest adornment of woman. A cramp in the leg may be immediately removed by tying any sort of bandage tightly above the knee. PUBLIC DEPORTMENT (Parliamentary Paper).—An Act for amending the public deportment of certain individuals, called Gents," abiding in London and other places.— Whereas, it having been represented that there are at present existing in the metropolis, as well as the provincial districts, certain individuals known and spoken of as Gents," whose bearing and manners are perfectly at variance with the characters which, from a monomania, they appear de- sirous of assuming and whereas, in consequence of cheap clothes, imitative dispositions, and intellectual poverty, this class is greatly on the increase, it has been thought necessary that this act should be framed, to control their vicious habits: may it, therefore, please your Majesty that it be enacted, and be it enacted henceforth, that all Gents" be prevented from wearing white cravats at parties, the same being evi- dently an attempt of sixth-rate individuals to ape the manners of first-class circles. And that no Gent who does not actually keep a horse, and is not in the army be allowed to strut up and down the Burlington Arcade with a whip and mustachoes, such imposition being exceedingly offensive, and amounting to a passive swindling of the spectators. And be it enacted, that all such things as light blue stocks, large figured shawls, cheap primrose gloves, white Cheater- field coal-sacks, half-guinea Albert bootsin fact, all those articles ticketed in the shop windows as Gents' last Style," be considered the distinctive marks of the class, and con- demned accordingly. And that every individual, moreover, smoking outside an omnibus, sticking large pins in his cravat, wearing fierce studs in his shirt, walking with others four abreast in Regent-street, reading slang publications, and adopting their language, playing billiards in public rooms, sporting dingy white gloves-in the slips of the theatres, frequenting night taverns, aud being on terms of familiarity with the singers and waiters, thinking great things of cham- pagne, as if everything at a party depended upon it, and especially wearing the hat on one side, be the signs of most unmitigated Gents," and shunned equally with hydro- iphobia.Puncla. To MAKE A MATCH.—Catch a young gentleman and lady, the best you can let the young gentleman be raw, and the young lady be quite tender. Set the gentleman at the dinner table put in a good quantity of wine, and whilst he is soaking, stick in a word every now and then about miss this will help to make him boil. When getting red in the gills, take him into the drawing-room, set him by the lady, and soap them well with green tea then set them at the piano, and blow the flame till the lady sings when you hear the gentleman sigh, it is time to take them off, as they are warm enough. Put them by themselves in a corner of the room, or qua sofa, and,there let them simmer together for the rest of the evening. Repeat this dose three or four times, taking care to place them side by side at the dinner, and they will be ready for marriage whenever you want them. After marriage, great care must be taken, as they are apt to get sour.
