HOW TO COAX \ HUSBAND.

BY MISS JULIA A FLETCHER.

CHAPTER I"How biippy iou moat be," said the young

Kstelle to tier cou-in. Mrs. Heed Williams, thebride of a year. "Y"U have one of the beßthusbands, ttie handsomest house and the pret-tiest location in our b-auti'ill city. Then thefurniture is real y superb; it see o* to me thil iwould almost get tnanicd nuielf cut li 1 haveevery tiling I might wish so quickly laid a- myfeet by a husband lover But how islhi,"andthe laughing girl became serious wi'h deep ai xicty, "tears whin I expee'ed laughter!?whatcan be the matter? What have 1 said? Knielic,Emelie, are ypu not happy?"

The young wi'e marie no reply, hut bowedher bead upon the shoulder of her sympathizingfriend, and indulged in a Jong and passionateflow ol tears 'I he alarm. <! and aguat.d Ra-ti lie cou'd end ute it. no long! r; *he raised herfriend tenderly in hir arms and kiscd away thetears front her cheek; she smoothed the soltbrown hair which had fallen over her face, andwhen her cares-es had won her smi'e of love,she. whispered softly - 11 Heat est Rmelic, may Inot share your eiief? Have I wounded yourfeelings by thoughtless gaiety? Are you nothappy, as I supposed?"

"You will laugh at me, Kstelle. if I tell youwhy 1 wept Indeed it is tootiiflnj; 1 mustnot betray such weakness, even to you," and a? mile b'oke over tbe ountanan a e to recentlysvrffuted in tears.

"There, the sun's come ou*, the sun's comeout," exclaimed Kstelle, menily dapping herhands as the spoke, "now tell me all,or 1 neverwi'l forgive you Come, now, to confession.?Did your lord aod master look unusual y gravethis morning?"

"Nay."

"Did he find lault with the coPee?""No.""Oil he say the toast was too dry ?''

"Oh, no."'\u25a0That the bread was stale?""No '

"Tint your morning dress was too negli-.? nt?"' "No

"What could it be then?"?and the arch girlleaned her forehead on her hand as if in deepthought?"what else could e-11 down a hus.band's censure, and what but a husband's cen-sure could draw loilh a young wife's tears??Oh, I know," said she whispering?' he lorgotto biss you when lie went out."

"Come now, Estelle, quit this nonsense, and1 will tell you. I believe I am growing j*a.l-- You know I always disliked smoking,butI e.annot persuade him to leave ofl' 1 am b gin-ning to think that he loves his cigais betterthan he- does me, or he could uot rests' my ;er-i.uasions "

"But you must coax him.""I have."'?Well, must keep eoaxirg

"

"Itis no use "

"Did you say, my dear husband?"Knielte laugh, d, and was silent"Hid you fay, All,do?""Yes, but he. said, Ah, no! In truth I begin

to think he does not like to be coaxed.""Nonsense, ou never raw a being yet tha'

"I will think ol it," said Emslie, and thefriends parted.

CHPTER IT

Emt-lie Williams sat alone in her boudoir,htr hands were clasped upon a small lable, andiher head resting upon Inr hands. Its marblelop was a stiange contrast to her feverishbrow, but it was not more cold than her heart.She was thinkiug about, her buebini. For the

first time since their marriage he had left herwithout a kiss, and it was tier own fault 100It was strange how such a tntl'e had becomeso necessary to her happiness. She looked ather woik basket to fee li ihere were anytkingwhich might divert her though'?. 'I here was

n doll which she was dressing for the 'air olthe "Female Charitable Society," but the satingauze seemed pi rlcctly untracuble, they wouldriot look well, and that never changing smilei n the (ace was more than she could endure.She (lung it bick again, and helped up themuslins, lac?* nod bits ol ribbon in mo.-t un-

wonted confusion, as if to hide it. She wishedshe had taken some moie useml woik;if it hadbeen a truck lor some p mr woman or li'ile rag

ged child, sbe thought it would have fixed heiattention. Thin she wound up her musicalbox, but she could not hear its sound ai d wasglad when it ceased. Evm the pages of i

favorite peri dical which had just been laidupon the table were n it devoured with eager-ness as usual, znrt her little pet Juan lay ather mistress' test as il he had no customary

cares to bestow The tru'h w as, her womanlypride was a loosed, and even in her solitude,she would have been ashauod to weep,but sh--sat listlessly thus in that n'ter loneliness ol

spirit which dreads communion wi'h herself.She was glad when a Wi II known tap announ-

ced hi r friend Eitelle, and s'aned up with a

smile to return her afltctionaie greeting."Well, sister,'' ('hey were nsi d to call each

other) "1 thought 1 would just run over andsec wliat was the icni't id your experimentDid you say what 1 told you!'

*'l did."--He said very well, my dear, then you can

go without your kiss "

"Of course then,' you intend to do so "

"But what can I do," said Emel edespairingty; "I like u>y ki-s as well as he does, and olrojr-e I cannot now take back what I havepi. id?"

F.stelle felt at that moment as if she wouldnsver advise any one again, hut she smiled? lis said, " ? bin persevere, mj friend, am! *

NIGHT NOISES?'I lose aie numerous;the most persons are apt to inve-t them with a

mysterious character, when a liMle reflectionwould relcr them to very natural cau.es. Inthe first place, the silence i.f night rendersthings audible that wouM be drowned in thetuimoil and bust'e of day. Of these too oftenalarming soumlc Ike tiivial, and even ridicu-lous, toigin is not unworthy of notice. Catsare prodigal agents in such matter*; and we are

of opinion that the greater nnnibi r of omtnioii-noists which Irigh'eli sober people uut ol theirsenses are attributable to then. A young i'l,of a very sociable turn, I -r.d of human com-

THE ALBANY DEFALCA HON.?TinCommercial Bank of Albany will lose aboti'§3O 000 by its late Teller, Alexander H. Lovelt;

nut t'-e means of the flank will not be impair-ed, though the stork holders have lost the sur

plus accumulated beyond their capital, and

will hive to forego the scrni annuel dividewi

of four per cent which the Bank was about to

iliclne lor ihe Ist nl Mar. b next. The lossby the defalcation of the former Cashier, Bsrtow, was one hundri d and seventy-eight thou-sand dollars, all of which the hank was ena-

bled, by Match ISI1 to replace, a d there-a'ter to resume the payments of hall yearlydividends.

The following account of the discovery olthe a flair, the Albany Atlas slates, is from asoutee to be relied on:

In'nrmation having been given to the Bankon Wtdneslay, for the fir-t time,'hat the habit*? f the man were not good, and that a certainimmoral connection sofa-nstid bet we n him anda woman of rquivo al reputation, tlie Directorstor I.wit h instituted an i xanimation ot no cash-nd condition of ihe Bai-k. Finding that thehour of accountability had arrived, thu 'Pelletasked the Cashier to allow Liu: to speak withhim in piivat.; and then confessed to theCa-hier that lie had lobbed the bitik ot ah ml

f >rty thousand dollars. He said he was a de-faulter for f ,ur thousand dollars in 1835, at thelime of IVaituw's delinquency ; that be had cooliiiued his p-eulation* and iinuzzh ment olthe lunds of the bank from that time to the

legem day ; and that h- had for some time'?en aware that hi* eui't must soon be detect-ed, on which account ho had for the last threeweeks carried a loadid pi-tol about his person,with which he intended to destroy himself ini ho last resort.

On heitig; questioned as In the manner inwhich he contrived to etude the vigilance of thePiicetor* ami officers of the Bank, particularlyon the occasions uf the frequent examinationso! the cash on hand, fie stated that his dailysia'einents in the " l eltei's Book" were all lot-ge.d, so as to oonfotm with the mem rauda olhis di fluency, vv ich he kept before hill), andm de to q lal the amount abstracted, and asthe exam n.iHonSof cash were perimlical.hr hadhecn able to ascertain the day appointed, andthen boi rowed from ditlerci.t parties sucham'iunt.s a> he needed to make up ike sum re-quired; ami, a 1 lino s, bail applied the contentsol certain packages of money in his charge, notthen tlie propi rty of the Bank inasmuch as notyet sect edited to the oncs so tint, the cash,as examined and counted by the Board of Hirrclors, oil all occasions id examination, actual-ly conformed with the balance cf ( ash andladper, within a small and unimportan'amount.

He said it wis impossible for any one, how-ever suspicious or vigilant, to detect his deiinqnency, tinles* by an unexpected and thoroughi Humiliation ol the whole of the funds in his\u25a0-huge; ami that he took care to manage hi*?ti burseim nts in to eauti us and secret away,a* to elude suspicion. Al* >, thai he had torlong time keen a speculator in the Lottery; a-ibougli ho thought his gains in that kalelul andruinous enterprise had, on the wholn,<quailedhi* loss -s.

He could not tell what had become of theimnnnte sums etiibizzbd, and said that lor along prriod he had been most wretched and un-happy ; thai In: had frequently determined toConfess hi* guilt to the C-.sbier, and then commil suicide; but his courage had tailed him. A'this point ul his conlcsaioo he made a dr>perat*attempt to shoot himself through the head witha pistol which he drew front his pocke', andwa wi'h gr> at difficulty disarmed.

After the ca h had been thoroughly examined,the amount ot loss ascertained, and an a*-ignment voluntarily made by tlie Tetter of all his

property and e(l<:et to tbe Bank, he was dulycomimttid by the Recorder of the city, andgiven in charge to the MieritT, to be proceeded-gainst according to law.

On Friday, he was lui'ed out, on the resp"Msi"ilitynl hi* brother, ou the petty considera-tion ot $2 500.
