SXOKNG SONG. - Floating away like the fountain's spray, Or the snow-white plume of a maiden, Our smoke wreaths to the starlit skies, With bliasil fragrance laden. CnoRus-Then smoke away till a golden ray Lights up the dawn of the morrow, For a cheerful cigar, like a shield will bear The bilows of care and sorrow. The leuf burns bright, like gems of light That flash in the braids of beauty, It nerves each heat t for the hero's part On the battle-plain of duty. Then smoke away, &C. In the thoughtful gloom of his darkened room Sits the child of song and story, But his heart is light, for his pipe beams bright And his dreams are all of glory. Then smoke away, &c. By the blazing fire sits grey-haired siro, And infant arms surround him, And he smiles on all in that quiant old hall, While the smoke-curls float around him. Then smoke away, &c. In the forest grand of our native land, When the savtge cotflict's ended, The pipe of pesce brought a iweet release From toil and terror blended. Then smoke away, &c. The dark eyed train of the Maids of Spaia 'Neath their arbor-shades trip lightly, And a gleaming cigar, like a new-born star, In the clasp of their lips burn brightly. Then smoke away, &c. It warms the soul, like the bltuhing bowl, With its rose-bed burden streaning, It drowns it in bliss, like the first warm kiss From the lips with the love-buds tecming. Then smoke away, till tlhe go!Jcu ray Lights up-the dawn of the inorrow, For a cheerful cigar, like a 0hield will bear, The blows of care and sorrow A Tall Singer, or the Power of Music. We were seated in the cabin of a river steamboat. There was a large number of passengers, who seemed desirous of beguiling away the tedium of the trip by contributing something to the general amusement. Among the passengers was one long, lank specimen whom no one could fail to recog nire as a Yankee. He sat apart from the rest, notwithstanding, while the singularity of his appearance did not fail to draw many curious eyes towards him. At length, when all the resources of the company seemed exhausted. one of them turned dubiously to our Yankee, and politely requested him to favor the company with a song. "A song !" echoed he, looking up. "Yes, sir, yon sing, do you not ?" "I did once," replied he;." and I may add, it saved my life." "Saved vour life !" All were eager to hear how this could be, and after some little urging, the stranger consented to gratify them. "You must know," said he, " that I was one of the first to go to California wvhen the report first reached us at home of its stores of gold. It was nothing to whtat it is nowv -a per fect waste in faict, with hardly a mark of civil:zaition, where now you can see flour ishing towns numbering their thousands of inhabitants." "Being fond of adventure, I separated from my company, and determined to find -my wyto the diggrings myself. One night I found myself lying Ont the grass, with my pack for my pillow, just on the edge of a large forest. It did not enter my head to be afraid until it became somewhat dark, and I heard with fearful distinctness the cry of the prairie wolf. I listened again, and was alarmed to find the cry coming nearer. Evi dently they scen-ted me." "At length a whole pack of blood-thirsty rascals camo bounding on till they came within a hundred yards of me, and then stood stoCk still, and soon began to draw nearer. "l My hair rose on end. I was terribly alarmned; I endeavored to think of some pos sible way of scaring them. Having heard that they were terrified by fire, 1 &lighted a match. They drew off' a little, but immedi ately retraced their steps. This movement was repeated on both sides. I found this would never do ; I must think of something more decisive. But whati "1I recollected having in my youth attend ed a singing school for the space of two evenings, durinig which I received some in distinct notions of the manner of singing " Old Hundred." That recollection sav'ed me. " Without more ado, I begain, and did as wvell as I could. By the timne I had got thro' the tirst line, I observed the wolves began to look a little wild atn uneay, and-will you believe it, gentlemen ?" said the narrator earnestly-" before 1 fitnidhed, every individu al wolf, putting his fore paws up to his ears, scampered away as if old Jack wvas after him ?" A shout of laughtter both loud and long, followved this narrative, at thte endl of which the speaker, who had not stirred. a muscle, gravely continued: haebnfrk " You see, gentlemen,Ihaebnfrk with you; I did not wish to take advantage of your very kind and complimentary invita tion without forewarning you of the conse quence. If, after what I have told you, you are- still desirous of hearing me, I will en deavor to give you " Old Hundred," which is the only song I knowv, and to wvhich, for reasons- already given, I feel uncommonly attached!" A fter that story, he was unanimously ex cused. A MoTHER.-Who can look coldly upon a mother? Who, after the unspeakable ten derness and care with which sho has fostered him through infancy, guided him through childhood, and: deliberated with him through the perplexities of opening manhood, can ,speak irreverently of a mother ? Her claims 'to the affections of her offspring are founded in nature, and cold must be the heart that can deny them. Over theograve of a friend, of a brother or a sister I would plant the primrose, for it is emblematical of youth, but over that of a mother I would let the green grass shoot up unmolested, for there is some thing in the simple covering which nature spreads upon the grave, that well-becomes the abiding place of decaying age. A LADT rose from obscurity to great wealth by ghe successful speculations of her hus. bandl, is reported to- be itn the habit of mis applyinzg words and quotations very strange ly. Her last motto is-" When. you;~ are at Rome, do as the Romans do; and when you ar in Turkcy. do as tho Turkeys do !" Co-OPERATIoN OF THIE .wIFE.-No man ever prospered in the world without the co operatign of his wife. If she unites in mutual endeavors,'or rewards his labo.-s with an en dearing smile, with what confidence will he resort, to his merchandise or his farm, fly over lands, sail upon seas, meet difficulty an'd encounter danger, if he knows that lie is not spending his strength in vain, but that his labor will be rewarded by the sweets of home. Solicitude and disappoint. ment enter the history of every man's life, and he is but half provided for his voyage who finds but an associate for happy hours, while for his morths of darkness and distress no sympathising partner is prepared. THERE is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power! They speak more eloquently than ten thous and tonguos. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and unspeakable love. flow melancholy the moon must feel when it has enjoyed the fullness of prosperity, and got reduced to its " last quarter." TuuE PtILosoP.-One great secret of domestic enjoyment is too much overlooked. It lies in bringing our wants down to cir cumstances, instead of toiling to bring cir cumstances on to our wants. Wants will always he ahead of means, and there will be no end to the race if you set the latter chasing the former. Put the yoke of self denial on desire, apply tho spur of Industry to energy, and then if the latter does not overtake the former it will at least come in sight of it. A Boy will obtain conutentment from al most anything. From two clam-shells and a dead kitten, Master Smith extracts more fun than his father can derive from eighteen visits to the Hippodrome. Great iuvention this boyhood. - * I xEAr to have told you of that hole," said a man to his d, who had stumbled into a pit full of a er a few days since. "No matter now-no matter now !" said the other, blowing the mud and water out of his mouth, " Ive found it out." NOT long ago some friends called upon a wit, recently deceased, and upon taking leave, one remarked, " Well, Dick, may God bless you." " I'm d---d if he don't," was the seemingly blasplemous, but really witty and appropriate reply. A CITY oY *ias as.ked why he preferred to board at an extensive hotel and give diii ner parties, instead of living at home, gave his excuse that Pa and 31a had got to be so sassy that he could not stand it no longer, so he had to quit 'em. - ABsENCE OF MiND.-Tie following is the last instance of absence of mind. A man, thinking he was at home a few evenings since, laid down in the park and put his boots outside the gate to be blacked in the morning. TiiE road ambition travels is too narrow for friendship, and too crooked for love. Wuy is rheumatism like a glutton I Be cause it attacks the joints.
