NOTHING 18 LOST.
Nothing ialost; the drop of dew,
Which trembles on the leaf or flower,
Is but exhausted to foil anew, ^
In summer's thunder shower,
Perchance to shine within the bowf
That fronts the sun at foil of day ;
Perchance to sparkle in the flow,
Of mountains far away.
Nothing ia lost; the tiniest seed,
By wild birds borne, or breezes blown, ^
Finds something suited to its need,
Wherein,'tis sown and grown,
The language of some household song,
The perfume of some cherished flower,
Though gone from outward sense, belong
To memory's after hour.
"So with our words; or harsh or kind,
Utterod they are not ail forgot;
They leave their influence on the mind.
Pass ou, but perish not!
So with our deeds; for good or ill,
They have their power scarce understood ;
Then let us see our hotter will
To make thorn rife with good !
Q-R"
"what Constitutes Riches.
lTo be rich,' said Mr. Marcy, our
worthy Secretary of State requires only
a satisfactory condition ofthc mind.
Ouc mau may bo rich with one hundred
dollars, while another in the possession
of millions, may think himself
poor ; and the necessities of life are enjoyed
bv each, it is evident tho man
who is tho best satisfied with his possessions,
is the richer."
To illustrate this idea, Mr. Marcy
related the following anecdote :
"While I was Governor of tho State
of New York," said he, "I was called
upon one morning at my office by a
rough specimen of a backwoodsman
1. 1 k. 1 j
wiiu scaiKiMi m uuu cominencea con
vers at ion bv inquiring'if this was Mr.
Marcy V "
1 replied that that was my name.
'Bill Marcy V said lie. 1 nodded assent.
'Used to live in Southport, didn't
ye?'
I answered in tho informative, and
began to feel a little curious to know
who my visitor was, and what ho was
driving at. ?
'That's what I told 'em,' cried aho
1 m * his hnmtdown
on his thigh with tremendous
force; 'I told 'em you was the sam^
old Bill Marcy who used to live in
? . Southport but they wouldn't believe it,
and I promised the next time I came
to Albany to come and see you and
find out for sartin. Why, don't you
know me, Bill ?'
I didn't exactly like to ignore his
acquaintance ^together, but for the
! life of me I couldn't recollect ever having
seen him before, and so I replied
that ho had a familiar countenance,
but that I was ndl able to call him by
name.
'My name is Jack Smith,' answered
the backwoodsman, 'and wo used tojjo
tft school together thirty years ago in
the little red school house in old Southport.
Well, times has changed since
then, and you have become a great
man and got rich, I suppose 1"
I shook my head ana was going to
contradict that Impression, when he
broke in:
"Ob, yea, you are; I know you arc
rich; no use denying it. "ion was
Controller for?for a long time, and
the licit we heard of you, yon was
Governor. You must have made a
heap of money, ami I am glad of it,
glad to sec you getting along so smart.
You was always a smart lad at school,
and I knew you would come to something.'
I thanked him for his good wishes
and opinion, but told him that political
life did not pay so well as he imagin-j
ed. 'I suppose,' said I, fortune has j
smiled upon you since you left South
port V
"Oh, yes,' said he, 'I hain't got nothug
to complain of; I must say I've got.
along right smart. Yort seo, shortly
after you left Southport, our whoW
family moved up into Vermont, and
put right out into tho woods, and I
reckon our family cut down more trees
and cleared moro land than any other
in the whole State.'
'And so yon have made a good thing
of it. IIow much do you consider
yourself worth W I asked, feeling a
little curions to know what he conaid
-ered a fortune, as lie seemed to be so
well satisfied with his.
'Well,' he replied, *1 don't know exactly
how mucn I am worth, but I
think," straightening himself up, 'if all
my debts were paid, I should be worth
three hundred dollars clean cash."?
And lie wad rich; for he was satisfied.

A Scone In Court
*
^ .& vtay learnea ana wicxy meropsr
of the bar?or rath^v bare, tor be was
often tight as sober?-was counsel in
rather a bad case in a court not a thousand
mires from the Pearl river, the
pine land irrigator of the Magnolia
State. He was making a grand close
of his argument, which like, his case,
was clerfr as mud, when observing the
indifference of the conrt, he abruptly
olosed and uttered a sentiment foreign
to the point at issue. Whereupon the
court, with flushed face, cried out, 'Mr.
jClerk, enter a five of twenty-five^. cents
against Mr. Jones.' . ; j
Counsel (rising)?If the court please,'
(hiccup) your honor is laboring under
a mistake. Your honor is entirely
mistaken. (Hiccup.) Will your honor
please to (hiccup) reflect and reconsider
the aubject, and (hiccup) and advise
mc of tho nature of my offence.
Court (sternly)?Yon said 'Damn
this court, sir."
Counsel^ (bowing, smiling deprecaungly
umu hiccoughing slightly.)
There?.there-?your honor! if the
court please I was sure your honor
was entirely mistaken?(hiccup) I was
sure of it?most positive. Your honor
did not understand me. I have the
profoundest (hiccup) respect for this
court,* the pro?found?est! Your
honor misapprehended mo for if the
court please I did not say 'damn this

such another court as this."
An Indian Duol.
Long ere tho ceaseless, ever-rollong
tido of the pale faced Che-mo-ke-mun,
had swept away from their homes and
their hunting-grounds thewar-liketribe
of the Miamis, while their numerous
camp-fires illumed the hills and valleys
of the West, when tho braves of their
tribe passed to battle along the warpath,
Min-gc-no-ke-aw, (the big man)
one of the gallant chiefs of the nation,
felt his ire excited at the reputation
which a member of his tribe, a half
breed, called Francois Godfrey, had
obtained for courage and persona!
strength.
Min-gc-ne-ke-aw claimed to bo tho
bravest as well as the strongest man of
his people, and would endure no rival,
lie chafed like the wild boar when he
heard the braves and red beauties cxt
)1 tho manly leariug of his competitor,
and he resolved to test the conrago and
physical power of Frank in single combat.
lie gave jio challenge to mortal
strife with 'your humble servant* at the
bottom, but meeting Frank one dav
he accosted him wiUi,
'Are you a bravo man V
'Yes,' was the reply.
'Then meet me hero to-morrow
morning at sunrise with your scalping
knife in your right hand: we will join
our loft hands, and he who kills the
other is the best and bravest warrior
of the Miamis.'
Frank, though a man of dauntless
courage and herculean strength, saw
no good reason to test either in that
wity^ but nothing but blood would satisfy
the chief, and Frank replied.
Til meet you.*
At the Appointed hour the great chief
strode along to-the battle ground. lie
relied not only on his personal
strength, but also on his great dexterity
in the use of the seal ping-knife,
which he had tried 011 the pale faces at
JIarmer St. Clair's defeat, and all
along our frontier. His dark oye flashed,
as with the doep growl of a tiger,
he advanced to anticipated victory.?
He brandished his knife? and called on
his antagonist to sing his death-song,
ere his spirit was dismissed by the
great chief to the distant hunting
grounds of the dead warriors of their
race who had fallen in battle and gone
to tho far west, beyond the great rivers.
Frank saw that thero was no avoiding
tho deadly strife. To rofusc was
to be branded as a coward and a squaw.
Tho only alternative was victory or
sudden death ; so he flourished his
keen blade, gave n shrill whoop of defiance,
and advanced. They joined
their left hands, and there tbey stood,
face to lace, like Fitz James and lthoderic
Illia?
'fetch iooked to sun, and tky and niain,
As what they ne'er might see again.'
They mustered all their strength for
the deadly thrust, raised their keen
knives aloft, but ere they fell, Frank,
the grip of whose hand was Ijjce ay
iron vice, wrung the left hand of Min
gc-ntvkc-aw with such tremendous force
as nearly crushed the bones together.
The chief, with a yell of anguish, dropped
liia knife, and cried out,
'Yoidare a ]>raver and a stronger
warriolthan I am ; let us shake hands
and boprienda forever.'

THE present critical state of European affairs
will render these publications utvusually
intercstfng during the forthcoming
year. They will occupy a middle ground
between the hastily written news-items,
crude speculations and flying rumors of tho
daily Journal, and the }>onderous Tome of
the future historian, written after the living
interest and excitement of the great political
eventa of the time shall have passed away. It
is to these Periodicals that readers must look
for the only really intelligible and reliable
history of current events, and as such, in addition
to their well-established literary, scientific,
and,' theological character, we urgw
them upon the consideration of the reading
public.
Arrangements are now permanently made
for tho receipt of Early Sheets from the
British Tublishers by which we are enabled
to place All our Reprints in tho hands of
