POETRY. from /Ac SUir Spangled Banner. A SCENE. Bl' WM J. BLACK. She stood without the prated bar, And for adniittonco craved, To see a husband, manacled. Who in delirium raved. She called his nauic so soft and low? Her utterance was plaint; With srtcaming eyes sho spoke so kind, She seemed to hiin a saint. And that sweet voice to memory brought j Days of once happy life ; And there, in thnt dark house, he knelt > Jlcfore his injured wife, And wept; his hoart was touched, his grief , Was full, nn.l pure, and deep ; IIj wept such penitential tears As in in alone c m weep. lie placed his hand upon her brow, So pure and fair, yet wan ; And looking up, ho said?"Dear Kate, I I'll bo a better man." She loll the strong man bowed?her voice Mis nature did control ; Her pnre confiding love had stilled The passions of his soul. She brought him forth from that dark place His looks wore pale and wan ; Hand clasped in hand, sbe led away A better, wiser man.

Wo like to look upon a healthy woman ?she is a prodigy in the nineteenth century. Wherever you go yon see scores and hundreds of spleenly, sickly, feeble girls, who can hardly muster courage to make their bods, wash their faces, or drive an intruding cow from the yarJ. Tell them about early rising, fresh air, and healthy exercise, and they heave a sigh as long as the moral law, and are ready to faint away. You expect thcin to get up before day, to work in the kitchen, to breathe the fresh air of morning! Preposterous and absurd ! They have never seen the sun rise, and would hardly know but the sun continues to shino forever, if I it were not for the almanacs and tlieir 1 grand-mothers. No wonder that every year sweeps .o the grave so many young I women who hare been sickly and effeminate, ever sineo they were l>orn into (lie world; and death will continue to select them as his victims till they learn their duty, and pursue that course which insures health, strength and long life. Our great grand parents lived to a great age, and never thought of lying down to die till they had, at lea^t, readied tho meridian of life. They were stout, strong, happy, ami hearty. Wliyf They rose early, worked like bo avers, and nevor spent the midnight hours in dancing. Instead of being frightoned at a mouse at their feel, a beetle on their neck, a Hy's foot on their arms, in the absenco of their fathers and husbands, they would load tbeir guns, and shoot bears and catamounts, and keep at hay a party of savages, llow have their daughters degenerated ? What female is there now-a-days who would'nt ruu from a gun, even if it lrti no lock. Tho ladies i of olden times out lived their husbands years and years. How is it now ? Widows are few and far between. It was no singular thing for our grand-mothers to liavo three or four husbands in the course of their lives. Now it is the reverso. Men have about as m my wives, diseases of late have heen so fatal among the fe ualo sex. 1>j you ?u')\v the cause? It is found in j listless idleness, in iclivity, late hours, thin shoes, muslin dresses, a horror of fresh morning iiir^^ui in that dctestnhle stuff stitched in pink and tellow covers, which I is flooding our country. If they will do , nothing <dse, young ladies will sit and read from nionitner till nioht ilm? ui..n?. ?.?.?<: I C B ??.! j niontul, impure, and wo will say licentious trash tliat h thrown in such abundance i from the press. This shrivels the mind, warps the affections, chills the better feelings, and make* tlie life wretched beyond [ description. Let females look into this subject an 1 act H':o reasonable beings, ' and wc shjtild see quite a different state ' of things. We should hear of on fainting , away, no sick constitutions, no affection of ' lungs, do elopements, nod no suicides.? Ex. 1 How ttik Ancirwts Lived.?The following extract is taken from "The Art of < l'rolouging Life," a work published by TicknOr, Heed 4c Field*: it is commonly l>olieved that, during ( the early periods of the world, the lives of its inhabitants were more youthful and t Utrfool * t- 1 " * c?..w. , iiim uiCTi |>iiiuiiivo men nau a gigantic size, incredible strength, and a 1 most astonish'i<g duration of life. A variety of such notions were long prevalent 1 among mankind ; and to theee wo are 1 indebted for the origin of romantic talee. Some have not hesitated seriously to as cribe to our forefather, Adam, the height i of fine hundred yards, and the Age of a i thousnnd years. But the accurate and J rational investigation of modern philoeo- i phy has converted the n Opposed bones of j giants found in different parte of the i earth, i ato those of the elephant and rid- t uoceroa ; and acute theologists have shewn the chronology of the early age was not the same as that used at present. w Some, particularly Uensler, have proved with the highest probability, that the rear, till ths time er Abraham, resisted & ' only of three months ; ami tliat it was j afteiwards extended to eight; and that it j, was not until the time of Joseph it was ; made to consist of twelre. T..eso iisser- j v; lions are, in a certain degree, confirmed ; J by some of the Kastetu nations, who still pi reckon three months to the year, and be- ?' sides, it would have shortened one-half im- , w mediately after tho flood. It would be . ^ equally inexplicable why the patriarchs ; did not marry till their sixtieth, seven- W tieth and even hundredth year; but this dilliculty vanishes when wo reckon these ages according to the before-mentioned standard, which will givo the same period at which people marry at present. The whole, therefo.c, according to the w explanation, assumes a different appear- to ance. The sixteen hundred years before p tlie flood will become four hundred and fourteen ; and the nine hundred years (ihe highest recorded,) which Methusalah lived, will bo reduced to two hundred? an age which is not impossible, and to t-( which some men in modern times hare a, nearly approached. a III profane history, wc have an account <-'< of many heroes nnd Arcadian kings of j* those periods, who attained the age of ()f several hundred years, hut these pretend- v< ed instances of longevity can be explained pi in the same manner. '8 With the period of Abraham, a period when history seems first to be established on more ccr.ain grounds, wc find mention at of a duration of lifo which can be still at taiucd, and which no longer appears extraoidiuary, especially when we consider | the temperate manner in which the patrinrchs lived ; and that, as they were no- ;n mads, or a wandering people, they were n much exposed to the frei open air. VARIETY. i rt4 I)kar Uaklino.?A young and pretty girl stepped into a shop, where a spruce ps young man, who had long been enamored u but dared not to speak, stood behind the counter selling dry goo-Is. In order to h remain as long as possible, she cheapened j' everything; at last she said, 'I believoyou iU think I am cheating you.' si Oil, no,' said the youngster, 'to me you are always Jair Well,' whispered the lady, blushing as -ir she laid an emphasis on the word, '1 would not stay so long bargaining, if you were not so dear.''
