For her, what task to dare or do ?
What peril tempt ? what hardship bear!
Bnt with it all, she never knew
My heart, and what wasludden there! ^
And she with me, so cold and boy, 1
Seemed like a maid bereft of sense;
But in a crowd all life and joy,
And full of blushing impudence.
She Married 1 well, a woman needs
A mate, hec life and love to share?
And little cares sprung up like weeds,
* jttfcti ? And played around her elbow chair.
And years rolled by; but I, content,
Trimmed my own lamp and kept it bright,
Till age's touch my hair besprent
With rays and gleams of silver light.
And then it chanced, I took the book
Which she had read in days gone by,
And aa I read, such passion shook
My frame, I nolds must frown or cry.
For here and there her love was writ
k ' In old, half-faded pencil signs,
As if she yielded, bit by bit,
Uer heart, in dots and underlines. N
Ah, silvered fool! too lath you look!
I know it: let me here record
This maxim : lend no maid a book,
U'nless you read it aflerioard.

a large amount of sugar, mucilage,
and other nutritious matter, apples contain
regetableascids, aromatic qualities, which
act powerful I j in the capacity of refrinfranU,
ionics and antiseptics ; and when freey
ose<] at the time of mellow ripeness, they
prevent debility, indigestion, aud avert, without
doubt, many of the "ills which fleeh is
heir to." The operators of Cornwall Eng1
land, consider ripe apples nearly nourishing
as bread, and far more.eo than potatoes.
Iif the year 1801?which was a year of
much scarcity?apples instead o'being cqn;
jrerted into cider, were sold to Use poor; and
the laborers asserted that they could 'stand
t heir work" on baked apples without meat,
whereas * potato? diet required meat or
some other substantial ' nutriment. The
French and Uernmnx use apples extensively,
as do the inhabitants of all European nations.
The laborers depend upon them as an article
of food, and frequently make a dinner of sliced
apples and bread. There is no fruit
cooked in as many different ways, "in our
country, as apples; nor is (hero any fruit
whose value na an article of nutriment, is as
great and so little appreciated.

to see ayoiyig -rnitu who was once a
Sabbath school scholar.
The keeper took a large bunch of
keys, and led us through the long
gloomy halls, unlocking one door after
another, until at length he opened the
door of the room where sat the young
man we had come to see. The walls of
the room were of coarse stone, the floor
of thick plank, and before the windows
were strong iron bars.
Withont,all was beautiful; the green
fields, the sweet flowers, and the singing
birds were as lovely as ever, but this
young man could enjoy none of these,
no, never again could he go out, for he
was condemned to death! Yea, he
had killed a man, and now ho himself
must die. Think of it; only twenty
years old, and yet a murderer!
I sat down beside him, and talked
"with him "Oh," said he, as the tears
rolled'down his cheek, "I did not mean
to do it, but I was drunk ; then I got
angry, and before I knew what I w;is
about, I killed him. Oh, if I had minded
what my Sabbath-school teacher
said, if I had minded my mother, I
should never have come to this?1
should never have been here.
It would have made your hearts ache,
as it did mine, to see and talk with
him. Once he was a happy, playful
child like yon ; now he is a poor condemned
wicked young man. lie did
not mind his motherrdid not govern
his temper, and as he grew older, he
went with bad boys who taught him
bad habits, and he became worse. and
worse, until^ as he said, when drunk,
in a moment of passion, lie killed a
man and now, fcfter a few weeks, he
must suffer the dreadful penalty. As
I left-him, he said," Will you not pray
for me ?" and he added, "Oh, tell bovs
everywhere to mind there mothers,
and keep away from bad compani ins."

upver too oiu, unci out u iew wee its too
young for mental improvement. To
perfect our minds wo must contemplate
perfect objects, both in the material
and spiritual universe. "We must appropriate
their perfections to our own
mental use; cherish, admire, loVe them.
We must look*for beautiful things,
that images of beauty may throng our

feelings, that haniimiy of soul may enrich
the inward temple with the music
of its numbers. We must strive for I
perfection of action, that in our daily I
walk the halo of angel-life may surround
ns. Deformity will not make
us more perfect. Vice will not help
us in our work. The artist never studies
deformity to augment his treasure
of beauty. The musicians never makes
discord and harkens to them thereby
to cultivate the sense of harmony and
beauty in his soul. So in life, we
should surround ourselves with the

our minds. ^Our thoughts are the
chisels which carve the statuary of our
souls. They do it well or ill as they
are right or wrong. Bad thoughts
are enemies worse than all outward
ones.
Dr. Channing says, "Tiio perfection
of mind is, to liavo a propensity to seek
agreeable and interesting objects, to
have attention turn spontaneously to
beauties of nature, fcxcellenceaiiof human
character?God's perfections.?
A mind thus filled is always improving,
always happy. A mind which
turns to disagreeable things, party agitations,
future uncertainties, etc., must
be depraved. All objects may be viewed
as expressions of goodness."

Touchino Stony.?Tho Hon. A.
II. Stephens, of Georgia, in a recent
address at a meeting in Alexandria fo?
the benefit of the Orphan Asylum and
Free School oftl^at city related tho following
anecdote :
A poor llitle bojr, in a cold night,
with no home or roof to shelter his
head, no paternal or maternal guardian
or guide to protect or direct him on
his way, reached at nightfall tho house
of a rich planter, who took him in, fed,
lodged, and sent him on his way with a
blessing. Those kind attentions cheered
his heart, and inspired him with fresh '
courage to battle with the obstacles of j
life. Years rolled round ; Providence
led him on, and he had reached the
legal profession ; his host had died;
the cormorants that prey on die substance
of a man had formed a conspiracy
to get frojpi the widow her estate.
She eent for the*nearest counsel to
commit her cause to him, and that
counsel proved to be the orphan boy,
years before welcomed and entertained
by her deceased husband. The stimulous
of% warm and tenacions gratitude
was now adaco to the ordinary motive
c.onaected with the profession. lie
nndertook her case with a will not car
sily to he resisted : he gaiued it; the
window's estates were secured to her in
perpetuity; and Mr. Stephens addedwith
an emphasis of emotion that sent
an electric thrill throughout the house,

days ago the Anti-American party egg
Philadelphia county held a convention
in Philadelphia. JN early tvro handred
delegate* were present. In' the coarse
of tho proceedings, the following oath
was introduced by Alderman Palmer:
We do hereby solemnly and sincerely
swear, or affirm, without mental re*
sorvation, that we are not now, never
have been, and do not intend to be
wiuv) uivuiuuiD ui miuucrei or oiner

our fellow citizens on account of their
birth-place or religion.
One hundred and seventy-nine dele-1
gates took the oath and subscribed their
names to it. The different candidates
1 for sheriff appeared before the convention,
took the oath required of the delegates,
and subscribed to it. . Each of
the candidates wore also sworn to support

singularly manly and impressive
in them.'" Now 'when we remember
how incessant and fierco are the AntiAmerican
denunciations of what they
call the sworn obligations of the KnowNothings,

Lapland winter. It is cool enough to

I'll sign your certificate.
Tho Harpers used to print the almanacs
of v?ne Ilutchins, who mode them
for the southern market,to tho order of a
dealer in those parts, who, in giving
the order, directed him to put in the
predictions of ruiu and shine to suit
them whether they ever came to pass
or not. Hutchius made a great hit, and
a groat deal of money out of a blunder
that turned out better than could have
been expected. lie had an assistant,
who was at work on the month of July
and called on Mr. Hutchius for the
weather, at a moment when ho was particularly
engaged and was much annoyed*
with the demand T'ut in what you
please he cried out: rain, hull jJiundor, j
snow, and douo with it 1
Sure enough, by one of the strange
freaks of nature, July was visited with a
cold snap, and all these winter perform- i
ances catno off according to the pro-1
gramme, ami the reputation of the al- j
manac man was maae.
An urchin of ten summers was gent
to sclfool for the first time. The teach-1
to test his acquirements, asked him?
"Who made you?" The boy couldn't
answer. The teacher told him the prepropor
answer, and desired the boy to
remember it. Some boure after, the
teacher repeated the qnestion. The boy
rubbed his head for a moment in a kind
of brown study,"I swow I've forgot
the gentleman's name."
Blunt.?Dr. Bailie, (who was not
more famed for medical skill than for
his strong common-sense mode of displaying
it,) being calted in to attend F.
IleynoTds, the dramatist, during a nervonis
complaut, that, fertile playwright
said to him,?
"Dqctor, do you not think that I
write too much fbr my flttRatitution ?"
>No," replied the Doctor, "but you
do for your reputation."
