The blossoms drifted at our feet, _ The orchard birds sang clpar; The sweetest ana tne saaaesi u?y It seemed of all the year. For, more to me than birds or flowers, My playmate left her home; And took with her the langhing spring, . ' The music and the bloom. Sbe<ki88ed the lips of kith and kin, She laid her hand in mine? What more conld ask the bashful boy Who fed her father's kine T She left ns in the bloom of May; The constant years told o'er Their seasons with as sweet May morns, * Bat she came back no more. I walk, with noiseless feet the round Of unerentfalyears; Still o'er and o'er I sow the Spring And reap the Aatumn ears 8he lires where all the golden year Her Summer roses blow ; The dusky children of the sun Before her come and go. There, haply, with her jeweled hands She smooths her silken gown? No more the homespun lap wherein I shook the walnuts down. The wild grapes wait as by the brook, The brown nuts on the hill, ^Lnd still the May flowers make sweet - The woods of Follymill. - w V The lilies blossom in the pond, The birds build in the tree, The dark pines sing on Ramoth hill I,. ? Thralow song of the sea. % , I wonder if she thinks of them, And how the old time seems? If ever the pines of Ramoth wood Are sounding in her dreams ? t. * - . . . I see her faoe, I hear her Toice ; Does she remember mine ? ~ And what to her is now the boy .... Who fed her fathert kine ? :< '%r *" ' % What-cares she that the orioles build For other eyes than ours? That other bands with nuts are filled, And other laps with flowers ? C nlavmate in the golden time! - mossy seat is green ; Its fringing riolets blossom yet, The old trees o'er it lean. The winds so sweet with birch and fern A sweeter memory blow; And there in 8pring the veeries sing The song of long ago. And still the pines of Ramoth wood Are moaning like the sea ; The moaning of the sea of change *' Between myself and thee! -pttmorflus 1 A FUNNY SPEECH. The Wisconsin Legislature have, formally considered a proposition to abolish all laws for- the collection of debts. The mover of the bill?Mr. Elmore?is a great wag, as is 11 ..J aL. r_ll a r evidenced vy me iouuwiug extract iroui ins speech upon that snbject: The speaker proceeded to review the present system of collecting debts. It was all a humbug and a cheat, a matter of technicalities and legal shuffling. Lawyers gave advice, in order to obtain a fee and encourage litigation. Judges made blunders and mistakes. He bad a little experience in law, and that was rich. [Laughter.] He would give a history of it. The speaker then re lated how he had purchased a yoke of oxen about fifteen years ago?paid fifty dollars for them?a few days after, the son of the man of whom be bought the oxen came, to him, and said the oxen were his. He insisted on having pay over again, and commenced a suit before a justice The jury didn't agree. Finally, through the blunders of the Bushwood justice of the peace, the case went against him. He appealed to the circuit court in Milwaukee.? 'There,' said he, 'I lost again and said to my lawyer: I will give you ten dollars to quote Pennsylvania law to Judge Miller __j i j j rn *1 u uuu imvctt ucw umi uiucicu. ^vjicat lauguter-3 He took the ten dollars and performed the duty. A. new trial was then granted, and venue changed to Walworth County. Judge Irjyin was then the Judge. Any man who wanted to gain a cause in his Court had either to go hunting with him and let the Judge claim all the game that was shot, or else pat his dog. Well, I patted the dog. (Laughter) 1 fed the dog with crackers. (Renewed laaghter ) The case was deci ded in my favor. When I heard the decision I thought to myself the dog had followed me about long enough?I turned around, and gave him a kick. (Laughter.) The yelp of the dog had hardly subsided ere I heard the Judge say, Olr. Clerk, this judgment i9 set aside, and a new trial granted." (Great laughter ) Mr. Speaker, that kick cost me ?200! (Convulsive laughter.) You have no doubt seen a suit in a Justice's Court in the country. There is time spent by jurors and hangers on, besides other costs, at least ?50, besides the ill feelings and dsisensions caused by it.? It is all a cheat The litigants had better sit down aud play a game of old sledge * A. _ J ! J . A! T a. 1 J io ueciue uie case, it wuuiu ue iuure sure to settle the disputes justly.' BAIL BOAD WIT. Engineer Stone, or as he was more generally called among his acquaintances, 'Old Rock,' who runs ou the East-end of the Peoria and Oquawka Railroad, is a wag quick at a repartee and dry as a chip. One day Rock met with a lot of the St. Louis, Alton and Chicago Railroad boys at Peoria Junction, and they stepped into Sam Emery's for a social glass of ale. Conductor Hedges, of the St. Louis road, as a sort of sentiment, gave 'Old Rock, otherwise Stone, a perfect brick!' 'That's good,' exclaimed Stone, 'Here's to Old Brush, otherwise Hedges, a perfect stick.' The next was seen of 'Rock,' he was pursuing a 'two forty' gait towards his engine. Hedges, with a stick, close on the rear.' This is not quite as good as the repartee of Niok Denton, while a division engineer on the Illinois Central, at a festival several years ago in De Witt county. A fellow named Jack R. gave as a sentiment: < The two Nicks?Old Nick and Nick Denton.' The tables came down with a clatter. Nick rose as grave as a judge. When the noise had subsided, he said he fully appreciated the honor conferred upon him in being named in connection with Jack's most intimate friend ! He hardly knew how to requite the kindness, but as one good turn always deserves another, he would give :? lThc two Jacks?Jack R. and Jackass.'? Jack R. collapsed, and the company went into hysterics. Young doctors are sometimes pretty hard besetr by 'old invalid 'fogies,' aod are obliged to 'put up' with a great many : things at first, whioh they would be very far from 'standing' if they had broken the ice and got into a large and lucrative practice. A case in point occured in our own good city of Gotham, less than a hundred years ago, because it finds its way to us from the lips of a friend who heard it. An old gouty, hipped, hypochrondrical 'irritant of a patient, in the absence of his I nmn nlimlaim, nalln/i in o wnrtncr Vint: vnrv VfTU IVIUU^ VOl'VU 1U %? jvwug WM? ? ??J talented new-beginner in the medical way. He is announced: 'How do you do, young man? You are a doctor, eh ?' 'I have studied the medical profession, sir, thoroughly, and for a young physician, have had my share of practice.' <Oh yea, I s'pose so. Yes, yes. Well, young man, let's see how much you know. What is the matter with me, now ? You can tell that, cant't you ? The young doctor stepped forward, took hold of his patient's pulse, and said, 'I can better tell you what is the matter with you when you tell me your symptoms.' 'Symptoms ! that is a good one. I want you to tell me what is the matter with me, and you want me to tell you what is the matter with me. Sha'nt do it, so now go ahead ?' Thus prompted, still having hold of the old man's wrist, the young doctor said, 'You have pains across your loins have you not, when you first get up in the morning? 'No, sir; never had any thing of the kind in my life, as I ever remember.' 'You are subject, I should say, to occasional violent headaches; that arises, no doubt, from?' No matter about that; you can dry upon Mar point, fori am never troubled with headache.' 'Let me look at your tongue. Ah I thought so. You are dyspeptic?flatulence; your digestive functions are out of order. I can soon remedy?' 'Hold on ! nothing of the kind. I've got the digestive powers of an anaconda !' The doctor dropped his 'patient's' wrist in disgust. 'Perhaps you think I am a quack, sir,' he said. 'Ah ! you have hit it dow?you're right for once, any way. You can't tell bow I feci, but you can't tell what I think. Call yourself 'one of the Faculty!' And the old hypochondriac bowed hisvisitor out of the house. A Business Quaker.?The Quakers are, in the main, as every one knows, a thrifty, kind-hearted, and undoubtedly honest people; but in some of them, even as among the 'world's honest people,' love of filthy lucre will predominate. In one of their farming communities lived friend Benjamin and his son. It was their custom to buy up cattle to fatten for sale. One day Benjamin, Jr., had selected a choice portion of stock from a passing drove, and was about to buy, when Benjamin, Sr., came along. 'Father, 1 am about to buy these cattle; what does thee think of them V ( 'What does he ask ( So much? I guess , thee'll get them for less; offer him ?800, and wait till moruiDg, if he don't trade.' Filial Ben assented?made an offer in , vain?went home with the old gentleman . ?slept?and next morning, after caring for the stock, mounted his horse to try again ! to buy the cattle. But on the way he met Benjamin, Sen., returning home with the , whole herd in question. Benjamin Sen., , was wealthy as well as smart?he had ta- , ken an early start and bought the lot. j 'Thee will let me have my 'portion,' will { thee not?' asked filial Ben. 'No sonny, of course not; I've bought j the whole?want 'era all.'"- , 'What! isn't that a hard trick to play thy ( own sou ? and I trusted to thee !' , 'Ah, Benny,' said pater familias, reprovingly, 'thee must be sharp and wide awake; j trust nobody, Benjamin ; watch everybody;: watch thy father, Benjamin; watch thy|. father!' Quite likely for young Benjamin the ad- y monition was needless thenceforward. 86T" A genuine bully called upou aj1 'Friend' and avowed to thrash him. 'Friend,' remonstrated the Quaker, j! knocking his visitor's fists, 'before thou pro- j' ceedest to chastise me, wilt thou take somei' dinner ?' The bully was a glutton, and at once I' consented, washing down the solids with'.1 libations of strong ale. He rose up agaiD to fulfill his original errand. 'Friend,' said the Quaker, 'wilt thou not! first take some punch ?' And he supplied | abundance of punch. The bully, now staggering, attempted to, thrash his entertainer, but quoth the Qua- j ker: 'Friend, w!lt thou take a pipe?' This hospitable offer was accepted, and the bully, utterly weak, staggered across the room to chastise the Quaker. The lat ter, opeuing the window, and pulliup him toward it, thus addressed him : 'Friend, thou earnest hither not to be pacified. I gave thee a meat-offering, but that did not assuge thy rage; I gave thee a drink-offering, still thou wert beside thy if. T ii _ i i : _:.i ben , 1 ^ave met? a uuiut-uuenu^, uuitut'i did that suffice ; and dow will try thee with a heave-offeriog.' And with that he tossed him out of the window. That sufficed him. Went up Hicn.?The steamer S., commanded by Captain S., exploded several years ago with terrible effect, and burned to the water's edge Captain S. was blown into the air, alighting near a floating cotton bale, upon which be floated uninjured, but much blackened aud inudded. Arrived at a village several miles below, to which news of the disaster had proceeded him, he was accosted by the editor of the village paper with whom he was well ac quainted, and eager for an advertisement. 'I say; boy is the S. blown up?' ?Yes.' 'Was Captain S. killed?' 'No, I am Captain S.' 'The thunder you are ! How high were you blown ?' 'High enough to think of every mean thing I ever did in my life, before I came down here.' The editor started on a ruu for his office; the paper was about going to press, and not wishing to omit the item of intelligence for the next issue, two weeks off, wrote as follows : 'The steamer S. has burst her boiler, as we learn from Captain S., who says he was up long enough to think of every mean thing he ever did in his life before he lit. We suppose he was up about three months.' fpp A CUNNING RULER. The following story of Gen. Jackson has never before, to my knowledge, seen the light. When he demanded of Louis Phillippe indemnity for the spoliation of our| commerce, the commercial interest was! panic-struck in apprehension of certain war, and onr land was filled with invectives hurled by the newspaper organs of the monied classes against the great President and his policy. It was said that he was either a blockhead or a ruffian ; either un able to count the cost of war, or regardless of the waste of blood and treasure; determined to pursue bis narrow and ignorant schemes, whatever the risks to the nation. One of the Justices of the Federal Supreme Court was about this period taking the great eastern cities en route from his western home to the capital, spending some time in Boston, New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. As he was known to be intimate with the President, he was waited upon by many bankers and merchants of these places, who urged him to remonstrate with the General against the folly and wickedness of his course; representing that our commerce would* be crushed, and that all interests would be ruined in the unequal, nay hopeless contest with the great monarchy. They knew, they said, the belligerent disposition of tbe French king, and that his people were not only prepared, but eager for war; and the Judge was implored, in the most moviDg tones, to use his best powers, as a patriot, in averting the threatened collision, and to seoure the fadeless wreath of the peace maker. Reaching Washington, just before the commencement of the session, when the war message was to be sent to Congress, the Judge called to pay his respects to the President, and before long the topic of the day was introduced. 'Well, Judge,' said the old chieftain, what do they think of my war policy in the great cities ?' The Judge, who had really been very much impressed by what he had heard, stated, in concise but strong terms, the remonstrance with which he had been charged. The President, laughing long and heartily, said, 'What fools they are !' Opening his desk, he produced a map of France, and a couple of letters. The map showed at a glance the departments which produced wine and silk, and on its margin was a tabular statement, showing the number of the deputies in the chambers sent from these, as compared with the other departments of the kingdom, by which it appeared that they had a strong majority iD the legislative branch of the government. One of the letters was from Mr. Livingston, the President's minister in Paris, announcing that he had the honor to forward with the accompanying map and annexed infor- t raation, prepared by himself and the French minister of foreign affairs, an autograph ' letter from Louis Phillippe. In this the King of the French stated explicitly that he felt the justice of the American Presi- ' dent's claim for indemnity, and was desirous to satisfy it, but that he was prevented from so doing by the impracticable temper of his chamber of deputies; that, as | the President would see from the map, its majority was composed of members from those departments whose industry would be | ruined by a war with the United States, yet that these were the very men who refused to vote the supplies to pay the debt. His Majesty, therefore, urged the President to threaten immediate war unless the debt were paid, with the assurance that this measure would have the desired effect of alarming the intractable deputies into more equitlble dispositions. The Judge, therefore, . joined the President's hearty laugh, and Pelt how groundless were the fears, and how undeserved the bitter denunciations, poured ' jut upon the head of the noble Tennesseean.'?Milium' & <Ten Years.' Lion Story.?Prince, a tame lion on " board a ship, had u keeper, to whom he was much attached; the keeper got drunk | une day, and, as the captain never forgave the crime, the keeper was ordered to be [logged; the grating was rigged on the main deck, opposite Prince's den, a large barrel-up place, the pillars very strong, rnd cased with iron. When the keeper began to strip, Prince rose gloomily from ' bis couch, and got as near to his friends as possible; on beholding his bare back, he walked hastily round the den, and when hej saw the boatswain inflict the first lash, his; eyes sparkled with fire, and his sides re-1 sounded with the strong and quicK Deatmgi of his tail; at last, when the blood began ! to flow from the unfortunate man's back,! and the clotted "cats" jerked their goryi knots close to the lion's den, his fury be-j came tremendous; he roared with a voicej of thunder, shook the strong bars of his prison as if they had been osiers, and, find- . ing his efforts to break loose unavailing, he \ rolled and shrieked in a manner the most < terrific that it is possible to conceive. The captain, fearing he might break loose, ordered his men to load and present at Prince; this threat redoubled his rage, and at last the captain desired the keeper to be cast off, and to go into his friend. It is impos- , sible to describe the joy evinced by the lion ; 1 he licked with care the mangled and bleeding back of the cruelly treated seamen, caressed him with his paws, which he folded i around the keeper, as if to defy any one I renewing a similar treatment; and it was only after several hours that Prince would allow the keeper to quit his protection and return among these who had so ill-used him. 4?P?? Windows opened would keep Doctors from the Door.?A very large quautity of fresh air is spoiled and rendered foul by the act of breathing. A man spoils not less than a gallon every minute. Tn eight hour's breathing, a full-grown man spoils as much fresh air as seventeen three bushel sacks could !! If we were shut up in a room seven feet broad, seven foot lnn<y. nm! seven feet hifh. the door and C' ^ o I windows fitting so tightly that no air opuld pass through, he would die, poisoned by his own breath, in a very few hours; in twenty-four hours he would have spoiled all the air coutained in the room, and have converted it iuto poison ! Reader, when you rise to morrow morning, just go out of door.s for five minutes, and observe carefully the freshness of the air. That air is iD the state in which God keeps it for breathing. Then come back suddenly into your close room, and your own senses will at once make you feel how very far the air in your chamber is from beiug in the same wholesome and serviceable condition.
