WINTER,
3Y MARY CARSON.
The winter is near with its cold chilling breath,
And Nature is robed in the garments of death,
Despoiled of their foliage, the trees now appear,
Arid the leaves of the forest, are yellow and aere.
The flowers have faded, their fragrance is gone,
Like the bright hopes I cherished in youth's early
dawn,
Ere sorrow's dark mantle its shadows had cast
A gloom o'er the future, and the joys of the past.
The field and the mea tows no longer are seen,
Arrayed in their beautiful vestments of green,
On the hill and the valley, is written decay,
And winds -through the leafless trees mournfully
,play.
The:blrdir they.have left us, the woodland and
No longer is vocal with echoes of love; (grove,
The hum of the insect no longer we bear,
And the prospect around us, is lonely and drear.
Though witer is nearwith its cold chilling breath,
A4 natuie is'robed in the garments of death,
Sweet bbpe somly-whispersthough dark be thy
The spring, lovely spring-time,will cheer us again.
The music of. birds, and the hum of the bee
Shall greet usigain with their notes glad and free,
And flowers in lieauty again shall appear,
The heart of the niourner, to solace and cheer.
The fields and the meadows, in verdure arrayed,
And- trees with their foliage, and dark cooling
shade,
Afford a retreat from the sun's scorching ray,
And again through the wildwood we'll joyfully
stray.
Yes, the spring shall return, (tho' perhaps not for
me,)
And suns shed their beauty o'er island and sea,
Diffusing of life, and awaking to birth,
The forms that in embryo sleep in the earth.
The spring shall return, and long ere that day,
Will many a form once healthful and gay,
.Be called to embark o'er Jordon's dark wave,
And iass-to the silent embrace of the grave.
Our Father in Heaven, oh! grant we implore,
(Should spring with its beauties, here greet us no
more,)
Ere death with its m "'' mons away,
A faith t) p over change and decay.
ions of glory from bright worlds of light,
As earth is receding, unveil to the sight,
Of spring-time eternal, where storms ne'er invade,
Of fields ever vernal, by time ne'er decayed.
There dwell the loved forms on that sunny shore,
That cheered us twhile-their sorrows are o'er,
Not given but lent by the Father of fore,
To link earth with heaven, and drPew us above.
I SIGH NOT.
I sigh not for wealth-let the miser enjoy
Al! the pleasure he finds in that pitiful toy;
Let him cherish his gold and his jewels with care,
For when riches have fled, his heart willdespair.
Then the shrine where he knelt, no longer will
cheer,
And his bosom will quake with madness and fear,
The idol he worshipped, once vanish'd and gone,
E'en Hope will forsake him, and leave him fo
lore.
I sigh not for Fajmgforitid's applause
Iof . twed for some slight trivial catuse :
Thuiis, favor and friendship oft blazon a name
Unworthy of aught, save abhorrence and shame.
No! I sigh not for fame--.it illumines man's way,
Like the meteor blaze in its brilliant array:
Yet earth's pilgrim will find, though ii glistens so
bright
Its splendor will fade, will be shrouded in night.
I sigh not for these-give me Ihonor and Health,
And away with the phantoms of fame and of
Wealth,
If Contentment be mine, naught orn earth can an
noy,
For my heart will then ba-k in the sunshine of
Joy.
With Faith for my beacon, and Ihope for my guide,
lMy bark wvill glide on, smoothly over life's tide,
To a haven of peace, in yon H~eaven above,
Where my spirit will rest, 'mid the regions of
love.
*DECIDEDLY A GooD ANECDoTE.-An
old lady, resident of a neighboring place,
kept a large family 'of turkeys, perhaps
sixty. She, like a great nmany other peO
ple, thought a great deal of her turkeys,
consequently valued themn very highly.
Opposite her door was a West India
good's store; the man who kept it one
day emptied his casks of cherries, intend.
ing to replace them with new. This old
lady being econotnical, thought it a great
pity to have all these cherries wasted, and
in order to have them saved, she would
just drive over her turkeys and let them
eat them. In the course of the day the
old -lady thought she would look after
them and see they wvere in no mischief.
She approached the yard, and lo! in one
corner laid her turkeys, in one huge pile
dead ! Yes, they were " stone dead."
What was to be done i Surely the old
matron could not lose all the feathers.
She must pick them. She called her
daughters and picked them, intending to
have them buried in the morning. Morn
ing came, and behold, there wvere her tur
keys stalking about the yard, featherless
enough, as may be supposed, crying out
" quit, quit ;" feeling no doubt mortified
that their drunken fit had been the means
of losing their coats. Poor things, if they
had said "quit," before they had begun
they wvould not have been in this bad fix.
We would advise all young men, who are
in the habit of drinking, to leave off' be
fore they get picked; and to those who
do not let every young lady say "quit."
STREE.T YARNS.-A distinguished law
yer at Nantucket round a b'll of yarn in
the street, and' winding up the thread, he
followed it until he overtook the lady who
dropped thme ball, and had the other end
of the thread in her pocket. The coun
sellor made his politest bow, put on his
blandest smile, and returning her the ball,.
said " Madam, I have-often heard of Ia
dies spinning street yarn,. but I never
caught one at it before."
IF' you wish for care, perplexity' andI
misery, be selfish in all things-this is the
shortest road to trotl'e.
THE TRIALs op MARBiED ADFE.--W
have a friend-an excelent husband and.
doating father-who came into our office
the other day, looking rather sleepy.
" What is. the matter with you F" we
inquired.
"Ol-nothing-that is to say," he re
plied in a hesitating voice-" babies are
some trouble after all, ain't they ?"
Of course we nodded in an indifferent
assent, but could not help asking how I
" Why the fact is," said our friend,
"that little fellow of ours is getting to
very knowing, and will be humored now
and then-so I get up occasionally and
walk him to sleep-but last night both
wife and myself had to carry him alter
nately, and
"Surely two are not required-"
"Hear me out. You see the child
wanted novelty, so I lighted a candle, and
as my wife carried him up and down the
room, I walked after her making all sorts
of queer manmuvres with the light."
"Well did that pacify him?"
"Why, yes, after a fashion. It stop.
ped his crying, but we consumed a whole
candle and a best portion of the night,
before he fell asleep, and the consequence
is I feel wretchedly stale this morning."
"Now, old bachelor, laugh if you feel
like it, and let this be a caution to you.
Lipp without some necessity or ex
ertions must ever lack real interest. That
state is capable of the greatest enjoy
ments whero necessity urges, but not
painfully; where effort is required, but
as much as possible without anxiety;
where the spring and summer of life are
preparatory to the harvest of autumn and
the repose of winter. Then is every sea
son sweet, and in a well spent life the
last the best-the season of calm enjoy
ment, the riches in recollections, the
brightest in hope. Good training and a
fair start constitute a more desirable pat.
rimony than wealth; and those parents
who study their children's welfare more
than the gratifeation of their own ava
gr.-or Vanity, would do well to think of
this. Is it better to run a successful
race, or be in and end at the goal.
THnE WISE MAN AND TH SERPENT.
A wise man one day asked the serpent,
"Of what advantage is it to thee to de
prive men of life? The lion kills and
devours his prey: the tiger, the wolf, and
other fierce beasts do the same, in order
to satisfy their hunger; but thou bitest
thine innocent victims, and sheddest mor
tal poison into their veins, without reap
ing any benefit from their death, save the
cruel satisfaction of destroying."
" Why ask thou me this question I" re
joined the reptile. " Ask rather the slan
derer among thine own race what plea
sure he finds in poisoning to death those
who have never injured him."
A GooD ONE.-While passing down
Frot-street-yesteFdayy we saw two gen-1
fiiiin somewhat the wvorse for having
been in conversation with " Capt. Whmis
key." Just as we approached them, and
for sonmc unknown cause--perhaps scy
hology-one of them plunged into the4
utter. His companion assisted him to
rise, and commenced rubbing the dirt
rom his coat.
" You're rubbing him dow~n, ehi " ex
laimed we.
"Not exactly," he replied, "merely
craping an acquaintance."
KNowLEDE.-"One fountain there
is," says Miss Br-emer, "whose (deel) veirn
as just begun to throw up its silver dlrops
mong mtnkind-a fountain which will
dllay the thirst of millions, and will give
o those who drinik from it peace and
o. It is knowledge; the fountain of
niellectual cultivation, which gives health
o mankind, makes clear his vision,
brings joy to his life, and breaths over
huis soul's destiny a deep repose. Go
md drink therefrom, thou whoml fortune
has not favored, and thou wiill soon feel
thyself rich! Thou mayest go forth into
the world and find thyself everywhere at
ome; thou can'st cultivate thyself in
thine own little chamuber; thy friends are
aver around thee-nature, antiquity,t
eaven, are accessible to thee."
PEELED THE BARK oFF.--The Boston
Bee has thme following rich one. A down
easter came to this city a while ago, and
hired out to a cabinet maker within a
stone's throw of our sanctum. He un
erstood lots of things, and like a true
Yankee, managed to pass for a good deal
ore than he was worth. The proprie
tor one day showed a very pretty ma
ogany veneered bereau to the mechanic,
and told him to " smooth it off," as the
urchaser would call for it in the course
of the morning. By-and-by, Johnny Rawv,
ade his appearance in the wvarehouse.
"Well, John, have you made that
bureau shine well?"
" Well, I guess it don't look bad, but
t'was a 'tarnal job though. I could't get
at it any other wvay, and I took the fore
plane, and peeled the darned bark all1
off'"
A correspondent of the Troy Times
gets of the following: "As we were
passing by an auction shop, a witty auc
tioneer wvas trying to sell an old hand or
gan. To that end he was grinding out
the musib, and the crowd began to throw
out the pennies, when a countryman
stepped up to him and said,-" Si-" you
ought to have a monkey !-"My good
fellow,"replidthe auctioneer, " so I had.
Step right up here ?" Thbe countryman
" vamoosed,."
" TnERE it gtes again !" saidi Mr-s.
Partington, as she became con~sck us of
the sublimity of a soda fountain one
warm day. " There it goes aigain, I de
etre fizzina' away like a blessed old lo
comco on the railroad. Don't say any
thing about Niagary now-that isn'ti
nothin' in- comparison to this-and it
ain't bad beer nother ; but how in natur
they can- drawv so many kindsout of one
fassit, that's the .wondermnut to me !
--Carpet Ir.
A YOUNG gentleman who has just mar
ried a little undersized: beauty, says she
would have been taller, but she is made
of such precious materials, that Nature
could not afford iL How full of sugar
the honey-moon makes one, don't it?- A
year-from now he'll be swearing about
the house because his d---d fool wife
has been cleaning his cook-stove with his
shoe brush.
WE wonder if there is anything that a
Frenchman is afraid to eat. We picked
up a Paris paper the other day and found
the following delicacies advertised by one
of their restaurMats, viz: " Hippotamus
soup, stewed cameleopard, elephant
steaks, and aligators tails." The ele.
pliant steaks were served with ourang
outang sauce, while the aligators tails
were accompanied with a side dish of
roast baboon. "Mine cot, vot a pee
bles!"
"WHAT's the matter, my dear," said a
wife to her husband, who had sat half an
hour with his face buried in his hands, and
npparently in great tribulation.
" Oh, I don't know," said hb "I've felt
like a fool all day."
" Well," replied the wiife consolingly,
I'm afraid you will never be any better
-you look the very picture of what you
reel."
A SU FFICIErT ExcusE.-A gentleman
aving lately been called on to subscribe
to a course of lectures, declined, "be
cause," said be, "my wife gives me a
lecture every night for nothing."
--- ...
THE shortest man ever heard of, was
one who when standing on his feet, had to
look up to examine the blacking on his
shoes.
The work of refining the English lan.
guage goes on bravely. The latest ad
vances, instead of saying he is" raising
the old harry, to remark that he is " ele
vating ancient Henry."
"Bc moderate in all thinks," as the boy
aid to the schoolmaster, who was licking
him.

Ma. Lawivs,-The Patent Straw Cutter wliil
o invented, and arc now offering to the publie,
Sa most excellent article and deserves public
avor. Two years since I purchased one and
av had it in constant use-it has never been
ut of repair in any respect, answering all the
rrposes you recommend it for. I 'mo'st cheer
ully commend it to farmers in all sections, and
ould not be induced to part withithie one I have,
rithout thme prospect of obtaining another, fur

MR. Lswis,-Dear Sir: Some tine since I
ised one of y'our Straw Cutters to cut roots for

if the roots were very hard and tough.-I am
nippy to say your Straw Cutter has far exceeded
ny expectations. The publie need not fear of
t getting out of order by cutt'm'g strawv or fod
ler,_or by accidentally getting hard substances
in it. Yours, respectfully,
J. DENNIS.

Ma. Wat. Lzwms,-Sir: In your letter you
ask how I like the Straw Cutter I bought fromi
y'ou. I say is exeels any thing of the kind I
have ever seen, rmnd I could not be indruef to
part vith it, without the prospect of getting
another, for any common consideration.
WM. P. B1JTLER.
EDoEFIELD C. H., Sept. 18, 18.51.
DENl Sma: I have been using one of your
Straw Cutters for some three or four months,
and am satisfied that its advantages over all
others, are suefi that it wvill recommend itselif to
ever observer. Its adaptedness to cutting all
kinds of g'rain, in any desirable hlbngtfr, itsi security
to the operator, the minimum of power required
to keep it in operation, the dispatch with which
it executes its work, combined with its simplicity
and durability, must make it invaluabre to every
one thiit may have use for them.
