crs of earth, all its green robitigs, and its

with my chill breath t<? wither and blight;
before 1113- approaches all things fair and
bright fade avd fall, and on cVQry side I
aeo the fading flowora of earth) looking at
me with roproaching.cyos. My sister Summor
revels in rich array, her breath brings
health and bloom and she rejoices in loveliness
and strength, but 1, ah I am dreaded,
sinco T cause the ruin of those fair creatures
who delighted in the smiles of summer,
but who cannot even clasp my hand.
On every side 1 can sco the signs of decay
where 1 have breathed ; on every hand
desolation is reigning, and sadness o'crsp
roads every feature. Alas, that T should
bo thus fatal to all things, for gladly would
i woo them to brighter loveliness, did they
not shrink at my approach?gladly would
I rise with my fairer sisters, fresh gonial
Spring and impulsive Summer, but it may

ookl aud chilling; at my caress tlio beautiful
buds of earth fall to the ground, stricken
to tho heart by my fatal touch.
Ho sighed the wind ono evening at tho
olo-jo of day as it saw tho fading of the
fl'twfcru, the ground strewed with leaves,
with the many evidences of decay, but 1
heard as 1 listened sadly, an angel whose
breath was soft as a zephyr, and whoso
voice floated sweetly and gladly from on
liigh, and whom I know was tho angel of
tho flowers. T heard him sing in grand
pure tones, of tho glory of "mountain and
dale," of the surpassing beauty of the for,
est trees, so justly termed "(Jod'H first temples,"
its they waved their lofty tops in tho
swaying breeze with their loveliest robes of
red and purple and pale gold folded brightly
round them, rendering them loveliest
in tleeav.
He sang of the quiet enjoyment v;e saw
in Autumn, of the glovy that rested like a
crown of gold upon the earth, and as I listened,
the sighing ceases, and the angel of
tho wind-sang only of the glorious change,
the bliss of dying. The beautiful angel
Bang ot' the Resurrection of all things now
passing away, and of the immortal verdure
that is unfading in the spirit land; and
the sighing angel was comforted, for lie
thought when he caressed some frail llowor
and she faded from his embrace, that tho
Angel of the Resurrection would take her
to his bosom and in tho far off land of beauty
it should bloom again There no change
could conic, there no flowors died, no lovely

montof ><oinc domestic Eden faded, but all
wos bright unending beauty and peace, and
the mournful song was exchanged for one
of music of this world, aud breathing of the

A Horso Story.
A keeper of a hotel not fifty mikd from
Boston, is, or was, a famous man for horsoa,
owned many ami was always ready for a
j trade in such cattle. Jlc was sharp at a
i burqain, and w:ia uevor leuown to make a
iiiovo that didn't qpunt on his side, until
the following happened, that proved an exception
to the rule, He always had some
particular horse on hand for every p.1;cjcular
emergency of trade, and the ndroitncsu
of his operations in putting off a beast, was
a subject for delighted approval on all hands
among Connoisseurs of that delightful and
much abused animal, the horde. No mm I
over traded with StalHe thut did not con- J
fess himself satisfied, though satisfaction
being a latitudinal word, did not always
mean that the satisfaction was the ultimate
of happiness in the trade?like the same
term in connection with the duello.
There was n jolly cobbler whoso name
was Wax, th?t occupied a small shop near
j the hotel, to whom Staflle was accustomcd
I to refer in case of any stick in a transaction,
and ho being p. disinterested man, would
decide on the matter of difference, always
?however, by what was deemed a strange
fatality, deciding in favor of Staflle. Some,
however, went so far as to intimate that
Staflle and the cobbler bad talked the matter
over previously, and had certain signs
by which (hey understood each other.
AVhen the stick came, then Staflle would
s*y, "Well, well, vjc can't get along any
further. Now I'm willing to leave it to a

corner,, knows the value of the lior.se I am j
swapping with you, he will be as good and ,
candid an arbitrator as we can find, and 1 j
guess I'll call him." Mr. AYax would ac-1
cordingiy come out, leather apron and all, ]
and alter looking at the matter candidly, i
would decide that StaOle should receive a j
smart consideration as the difference in ;
value, and this would settle it nine times
in ten.
One day there came along a stranger
with a pretty good horse and it was at once
an object of Staftle's interest. He examined
the horse in all his points and determined
to have him. The determination
worked itself into a positive fovcr by next
morning; and when the stranger's horse
was led out to be harnessed, Stullle stepped
out and asked the owner, who was looking
on, seeing that the harness was adjusted
properly, if he didu't want to swap horses.
The stranger told him that he hadn't
the least objection provided he could make
a little something out of it.
"Well, I'm glad to lioar you say bo.?
John, bring out the red colt."
The red colt was accordiogly brought
out. It's name was a misnomer. It was
one of those animals that, having been
j called a colt when legitimately entitled to
| tlie appellation, had forfeited it by the offence
of age, and was now sailing under
false colors. The stranger looked at the
" colt," and gave a whistle us he saw the
discrepancy between the title and the age.
" Woll," said he at last, "how shall we
trade? What will you give to boot?"
" Moot !" said Stnfllc, with feigned surprise,
" the boot is on the other leg, I
think."
"Ah," said the man, "well, if you
think so, we will stop negotiation. Good
morning."
"Hold on," cried Stnflle, "hold on?
don't be in such a hurry. Suppose 1 offer
you?say, twenty-five dollars?how would
that please you V
" It would not please mo at all," was the
I reply. " L shouldn't want to take less
I thau eighty dollars."
" Well," said Staflle, " I can't do that;
but I'll tull you what L will do?I'll leavo.

" Done," replied the stranger; anything
for a trade. Whom will you leave it to f
Somebody, I hopo, that knows what a good
horse is."
" Never a hotter, sir," said Staflle, delightfully;
and here's the mail, of all nthel's,
that I would like to see, coming into
the yard. Good morning, Mr. Wax."
Wax nodded good morning hack again,
and said so, and then stood with his hands
under his apron looking at the horses.
ivir. \yax, continued iStalllc, " this
gentleman and myself are about trading'
horses, and wo want you to decide un the
amount of boot that. [ am to pay him. You
know what an excellent horse the "colt"
is, and can .judge by comparing the two,
what tho difference should be."
" Jlr. Wax are you a good judge of horses
?"
Mr. Wax nodded, and looked up into
life face, as nuioh us to ?:iy, " I should like
to have you tind a better one." Ho then

In cornel's pbcuure and hIoiiq;
They've gone to rest, and the gay young sprigs,

Where oft wc liavo lain in the summer hours,
And drtink to our utmost fill ?

And the wild hogs root around 1
And the good jug, and its whiskey sweet,
Lies broken and spill'd on the ground.
Oh, dort't you rcmomb^V the tavern lien Bolt,
And the llar-kccper kind and true,
And the little uook at the end of the bar,
Where wc swallowed the rum he drew?
The tavern is burnt to the ground, lien Ilolt,

And of all the "boys" who "apreed" it then,
There remains but you auil I!
Respect a Manly Avocation.
As a nation we have lost much of tliat
manly independence and sense of equality,
which formed so prominent a feature in the
character of our forefathers, us side by side
they stood liko men made in the imago of
tho same God, to dispute the rule of tyrants.
Wo often hear of those who look
upon their professions or peculiar business
as far above that of the mechanic or common
1. borer, merely because it is less laborious.

is a dishonor to tins business he
represents. There is some shadow of excuse
for the aristocratic pretensions of
those who have not, to imitate such, and
feel themselves associating with those
whose hands arc browned with honest toil.
If the perverted minds of such would allow
reason, us God gave it to them, to hold
sway for a few moments, they would see
their own unmaiolitiess, acknowledge their
i error, and become better men.

Female Supremacy.
There is ouo quarter of tho globe to which
our " strong-minded'' ladies, those who are I
disgusted with tho social condition of wo- I
men in Amcrioa, who nro weary of the deference
paid to hulies in the rail cars and
public assemblies, who are not content with
the practical proof in tho United States of
tho renowned axiom, '"Women rule everything,
becanso they rulo thoso who ?ulo
everything5" there is one placo, wo say, to
which they might immigrate with advantage,
and that is, to tho shores of tho river
Zambeso, in Africa. l>r. Livingston descrihes
the country of tho Holonda negroes
as tho paradise of women. Usually among
j heathen and superstitious people, women
aro degraded to tho lovcl of tho brutes, but
among tho Molondas, Dr. Livingston found
I it established that tho women should ait in
I the councils of the nation ; that a young
num on entering the matrimonial Mate
should bo compelled to remove from his
own village to that of his wife; and in form
incf this relation, lie should hind himself to
provide h?r mother wiiji firewood as long
as tho old lady liked"; tlmt the wife alone
could divorco the husband, and that, in the
event of their separation, the children became
tho property of their mother; and
that tho lord of creation should bo unable
to enter into tho most ordinary contract, or
to perform tho simplest service for another
without tho sanction of " the lady superi!
ot".?all certainly indications of femalo sui
premacy, which it was passing strange to
I find amongst the denizene of Central Africa.
But yet it must bo allowed that tho
| reciprocity wan not "only on one side ;"for

fact which the doctor, states, tj?.it tho ladies
i i)ovi?r jack a husband; and that an old maid
is not to bo found from tho capo lo tho

Polygamy prevails among them at among

Sometimes tho ladies go so far as to inflict
personal chastisement on their beard partners;
not content with starving, they once
in a while boat them severely. If this
strange tftlo did not come from one of tho
most truthful of mon, we would not give it
credence. Wo respectfully suggest to tho
"strong-minded" (and strong-handed) the
expediency, if an immigration company is
uioiigui imprncuraou*, to gci up " uoionua

the Zambeso country among us. Any new

Tiie Manners ok 1857.?"Ts it proper
to wear boots on the mantle 01' window-sili,"
is a question of social ethics which with
some may admit discussion. The Boston
Courier thus discourses on the topic, and
incidentally reveals the fact that b;ul man
nenj mny i>e touna even m .New Kngiaml :
''\Vc took the liberty, yesterday of adverting
to the bad manner* of the young
gentlemen who wore their hats during tho
Promenade Concert at tho Music Hall.?
The head is not tho only part of the human
frame through which bad manners can be
manifested. Wo were at Nahant a few
days since, nnd on approaching tho hotel
on its northern entrance, our eyes were at
once arrested by an torial vision wliich fixed
the wondering g^xe. AVe saw a pair of
French boots stuck out of a window, and
projecting a foot or two beyond the frame,
revealing a zone of the trowscry also. The
boots were of patent leather, very well
marie, and not much worn, and altogether
a very desirable article. Had the wearer
been a boot maker, and had his purpose
boon to advertise his wares, there would
have been u manifest propriety in tho attitude,
which would have commanded the
immediate assent of all Well regulated minds.
Hut WO nresume tllfrn WJiK ?r? Hiinlt nnnuviA
in his thoughts. Wc suppose that the owner
of the said hoots was a gentleman, in the
common and received sense of the word ;
or, at least, that ho would have iiercely resented
any insinuation to the contrary.?
But further wc cannot way. To whom
they belonged?what manner of man he was
?in what fashion the rest of the frame
that terminated in these pedal coverings
was disposed?at what exact poiut the horizontal
ended and the perpondicular began
?wc are unable to aflirm, and the just and
rcusonuDio curiosity of our render* ou tlieao
points can never be gratified. The boots
wore a mysterious vision?a tantalizing
fragment?an ncrinl phantom suspended between
heaven and earth. Considering the
place where, and the time when, thisjrraccful
apparition was vouchsafed to the admiring
gaze, we thought it a fact worthy of being
chronicled. We regretted that we had
not the accomplishment of an artist, bo that
we could take the exact portraiture of the
phenomenon. We can only paint it in
words. Wo set it down as one of those incidents
which are wort hy of being noted,
and preserved for the beuefit of the future
historian of New England civilization."

These boys emtio hou.c intelligent men, but
I they married uneducated and uncivilised

children Were nil like their mothers. Thus
the father soon lost all his interest in both
wife and children. And no\y, said he, if
