THE STAR OF HOPF.
Tub Star of Hope beams brightly o'er
The cheerless scene of earth?
And they who onco have cherished it,
Are wout to know its worth.
And they who trace its onward course
Through tho fadeless azuro ?ky,
Thouch its lustra ofl.an km>iiis to fade.
O " "
They know 'twill never die.
Who would grasp the phantom bright,
And claim it for their own 1
Or hope for joys which are not theirs,
To troasuro them unknown.
But soon, alas! the vision's fled ;
The golden dream is p;vst?
The dazzling Star of Hope's grown diiu,
Its brightness cannot last.
Yet still they feel it will return.
To beam again more blight,
To shed its brilliant halo round
The soul bereft of light.
But there are some to whom it seems
By shadowy clouds o'er cast?
Who deem it but a beacon light,
Of joyous memories past.

A Texas Joker.
Some years ago wo copied the following
fun from the Texas "Morning
Star, published at Houston. It lately
fell in our way again and wo were
bo tickled upon reading it once more
that we determined to start it again for
a 6econd heat. Wo will take 110 small
odds that in three months time it will
liavo been published in half the newspapers
in the country :
Aquatic Scenery.?During the hardest
of the storm the day before yesterday,
we took a lounge down to the
steamboat landing. While standing
on the brink of a deep gully that cmp
tied its torrents of water into the bayon,
our attention was attracted to the
l>ottom ot the g?Uy? where a drunken
loafer was stemming the torrent and
holding on to a root last anchored in
the bank. The fellow, not knowing ;
any one was near him, was combatting
his fate manfully, and in calculating i
his chances of escape, gave utterance
to the following:? <
"Ilaynt this a orful sitivation to be
placed in, nohow ? If I was a steam- i
1>oat, a rail, or a wood pile, I'd he bet- :
ter worth fit* y cents on the dollar than i
I'll ever be again. Unless I'm a gone
case now, there haynt any truth in i
phrenology. I've weighed all the i
chances now like a gineral, and only i
two that bears in my favor; the first is (
a skunk hole to crawl into, and the sec- <
end a special interposition of Providence
; and the best chance of the two i
isso slim, it*I only had the chance I'd
give the premium for the skunk hole I
?thorn's my sentiments. If I could i
ben mink, or a muskrat, or a water l
snake, for about two minutes, perhaps 1
I would mount the first stop t'other of 1
Bio, and flap mv wings and crow over <
precious life, scientifically preserved, i
But what's the use holdin' on to this 1
root? There haynt no skunk hole in <
these diggins, the water is gettin taller ;
about a toot, and if my nose was as long <
as infinity it would'nt stick out much
longer. ,
uO, Jerry! Jerry! you're a gone i
sucker, and I guess your niarm don't I
know you're out; poor woman! won't <
she cry the glasses out of her spectacles 1
when she hears that her darlin' Jerry ;
has got the whole of the Buffcrlo Ilio ?
for his coffin t What a pity 'tis some
philanthropic, or member of the humane
society, never had foresight I
enough to build u house across this gut- i
ter, with a steam engine to keep out ]
the water 1 If they had done it in time, i
they might have had the honor and (
gratification of saving the life of a fel- >
ler being ; but it is all day with you. t
Jerry! and a big harbor to cast | r
anchor in. It's too bad to go oil" in f
this orful manner, when they knows I 1
oilers hated water ever since I was big I
enough to know 'twant whisky." s
Before Jerry got to the conclusion, t
die was washed into the bayou, within <
a few feet of a large flat that had just I
started for the steamboat. His eye i
caught the prospect of deliverance, i
and ho changed the burden of his dirge
into a thrilling cry of "iicavc to! p;issenger
overboard and sinking with a <
l?elt ful of specie!?the man who saves (
me makes his fortune !" Jerry was i
fished ont by a darkey, and to show his .
gratitude invited Qnnshey to "go up to <
tho groggory and liquor." I
A. Slight Yistakk.?A few days
since a German was riding alona San
some stroet, in Sacramento when he
heard the whizzing of a hall near hitn,
4Uid felt his hut shaken. lie turned
about and saw a man with a revolver
rm hie hand, and took olF Jiis hat and
found a fresh bullet hole in it.

Gernjim.
"Yes," replied the other party;
* that's iny horse. It was* stolen from

"You in irt Jm in!-taken,'' said the
Utfb*. . - A. -

Bringing a Drunkard to liis Son80S.
We find in the New Orleans Picar
yun4?8 city intelligence, of the 16th, the
following account of a drunkard's surprise.
It is not an unusual thing for
loafers in New Orleans, after they
have done a heavy business during the
day, in the "carrying trade," and when
they are past caring a continental for
the slight difference between Hag stones
and fathers, to seek repose on banquetts
and in alleys?Monfy Advertiser.
"A drunken man, last evening, laid
himself down for a quiet nap, near a|
fence, 011 the sidewalk of Terpsichore j
street, and was soon happy in the |
ureurns 01 1110 snoring gou. >V hue lie
slept, the houses on 'the opposite sido of
the street were in flumes, and the enginery
of the lire brigade moved about
with a rush and a rattle. At length
some individual with a heavy heel,
while pressing his anxious way along
the crowded sidewalk, planted his foot
on the inebriate snorer's breast. This
was too much. The sleeper awakened,
started to his feet, and, staring
around with eager optics, asked : "Am
I in hell, or is tno world on tire?"?
Without waiting for an answer, he
took to his heels, and started olf, as
if tlio dark demons of delircum tremens
were in chase of him*"
Smart Children.?A child of thrco
years of age, with a book in its infant
hands, is a fearful sight. Jt is too often
the death warrant, such as the condemned
stupidity looks at?fatal, yet
beyond his comprehension. What
should a child three years old?nay,
live or six years old?be taught ?
Strong meats for weak digestions make
not. bodily strength. Let there he nursery
tales and nursery rhymes. I !
would say to every parent, especially
every mother,'sing to your children;
tell them pleasant stories; if in the
country be not too careful lest they
get a little dirt upon their hands and
clothes ; earth is very much akin to us
all, and in children's out-of-door plays
soils them not inwardly. There is in
it a kiiul of consanguinity between all
creatures; by it wo touch upon the
common sympathy of our first substance,
and beget a kindness fin* our
poor relations, the brutes. Let chil |
ilren have a free, open air sport, and
fear not though they make ncipiain- j
tance with the pigs, the donkeys, and
'lie chickens : they may form worse '
friendships with wiser-looking ones.?
Kncourage a familiarity with all that j
love them ; dumb animals love ehilIren,
and childen love them. There
is a language among them which the
world's language obliterates in the (
jldors. Tt. is more importance that j
you should make your children loving ,
' ban that you should make them wise. ;
Above all things, mako them loving; 1
md then, parents, if you become old '
md poor, these will be better titan '
friends that will lieg'ect you. ChilIren
brought up lovingly et your knees
will never shut their doors upon you,

A Keen Answkii.?Count Staekel- |
jerg was once sent on a particular '
nission by the Empress Catharine into *
Poland ; on the same occasion Thurgut "
aus dispatched hy the Emperor of
jrennany. J loth these ambassadors
yore strangers to each other. When *
he morning for the audience had *
irrived, Thurgnt ushered into a magni- 1
iccnt saloon, where, seeing a dignihed
ooking man seated, and surrounded 1
jy several Polish noblemen, who wore (
standing most respectfully before him, '
'.lie German ambassador (Thurgut) con- '
dndod it was the king, and addressed
dm as such with the accustomed formalities.
This dignified looking charac- '
ter turned out to be Stackelburg, who 1
received the unexpected homage with '
pride and silence. Soon after, the king !
entered the chamber, Thurgut, per- !
eeived his mistake, retired much mortified
and abashed. In the evening it
jo happened that both these emlmssa- 1
lors were playing cards at the same '
table with his majesty. The Gorman
envoy throw down a card saying : J
The king of clubs!'
4A mistake, said the monarch ; 'it is
the knave.'
'Pardon mo, sij1,' exclaimed Thurgut
casting a significant glanco at Stackollmrg,
'thi9 is the second time to day
I have taken a knave for a king.'

Hiram Powers was a native of Now '
England, and was taken to Cincinnati,
a poor, uneducated boy.. While very
voung ho was thrown entirely upon
ui? own resources. Patience, industry
and temperance have had quite as
much to do with making him famous
as his undoubted genius. While a
boy, wo are told, he displayed a mechanical
genius of the moet remarkable
kind. With a common knife or- file
ho would shape a piece of wood or
metal into any form to suit liia fancy.
Without any provions instruction lie
succeeded in building an organ, and
invented a lathe for turning metals.?
Brass, iron and stone wore equally
manageable in his bauds.
He probably obtained quite as much
renown in Cincinnati by the construction
ot a model called the Lower Regions,
which scerns to have materializ-1
cd Dante's Inferno, as he has since gained
all over tlio world by his Eve and
the Greek Slave. Ilis residonco in
Rome aud Florence was the result of
hard toil, the means being slowly accumulated
; and he probably owes
much of his final success toGreenough,
who, like a true artist, extended a helping
hand to the struggling genius.?
lie is probably best known as the
producer of that, more than classic
creation the Greek Slave. The stern
chastity of this piece of statuary makes
it, in the estimation of many very competent
judges, even superior that master
piece the Venus do Medici. For
varied, and yet alwys pure and truthful
expression, the Slave is a master
piece : and yet one can scarcely look
upon his later productions, Eve and
the Fisher Boy, without regretting that
the Greek Slave should seem to rob
those perfect works of art of their true
glory.
All that Powers does ho performs
well; he has set a grand ideal before
him; he is iudefatigably laborious;
and his privat character is said to be
above reproach. These facts, and his
steady perseverance under the most
difficult and trying circumstances, are
pronaoiy tlic true secrets of his rise
from the position of a poor, friendless
boy, in thfc streets of Cincinnati, t<? that
ot the world's gratcst sculptor in this
age. And these same traits of character,
faithfully developed and carefully J
garded, will raise any young working
man, or any poor boy, if not to the <
same height of fame, yet to the same 1
position of actual nobility.
A Musical Promoy.?There is, in '
this vicinity, a blind negro boy, only
six years old, the property of James (
X. Bethuno, of the Corner Stone, who
exhibits the most wonderful capacity .
for music, and is able to play almost '
my piece, even the most difficult, up- <
>11 the piano forte, after hearing it once t
jr twice. lie has never been instruc- a
ted in music; his knowledgo of the i
science is, therefore, instinctive. lie ?
