SELECTED POETRY. | Bury Me Mew My Own Loved Heme. BY HATTIB. The following line* were composed on hearing the soliloquy of a patient in an Insane Asylum : Oh 1 bury me near my own loved home, 'Neath the shades of a willow tree; Where sweetly rest in Heaven's high dome, The spirits of those that dwelt with ine. Oh 1 bury me where wild roses bloom. O'er sacred homes of mouldering dead ; j Where calmly lies in the silent tomb, My mother dear?to angels dear ! Oh ! bury me when called to die, When kind friends chant soino Heavenly | Let their music break the parting tie, llay, ( When 'round my grave assembled tucy. Oh ! bury me in the calin still eve. When birds may join their evening praise; Then sadly, silently take their leave, When sunset sheds its ling'ting rays. Bury me not in this dreary spot, Whore maniacs rest, their fate untold, Whore I so soon should be forgot. When voice is still and lips are cold. Oh I bury me not, oh, will you?say ! In the lone spot where strangers rest, When death o'er ino his sceptre sway. Then la)' me neur my kindred blest. Oh ! bury mo near my own loved home. Where kindred friends shall novcr part ; Whero my dear children may often roam, To the spot where lies?a broken heart. o 1 o- ri tfdiiiinrv o, 1001. t. . i HUMORIST'S OLIO. [From l'orter'a Spirit of tlio Times.] Uncle Billy's Rifle Fight Not long since, I happened in ono of those requisites to a country town, commonly called a "doggery," but a faded sign over the door, littored with ]X)kc-bcrry juice, told that it was dignified with the title "Grosery," (the S bein<5 of course turned hind Sart before.) A small chunk of a ght made in 2:40, had just come off near the door, and it was not strange that pugilistic encounters were the subject of conversation as I entered. I was a 6ilent and interested listener ?as each one related the different tight places lie, or some of his particular friends had been extricated from, either by miracles or superhuman exertion ; and, if any doubt remained on j the minds of the eager listeners, after the imprecation which each speaker called upon himself to substantiate the truth of his narrative, such doubts were instantly removed bv tho innumerable scars exhibited by the different narrators. One fellow had had his thumb twisted until a cork-seerw was straight in comparison to it; another had had his nose chawed until it would have elicited the admiration of the most fastidious sausage-maker ; a third had ? O" 7 ----- ? had "each particular hair " so neatly extracted from his head by the roots, i that he had to produce another capillary crop by grafting. If such was the case, I thought that the grafting < had been more assiduously attended to ' than the subsequent training, for he < had evidently been listening to the 1 talc the (thost of Hamlet's father < 44 could unfould," and it had made * " Each particular hair to staud on end, < Like quills uj>on the fretful porcupine." i 1 It is impossible to relate or even remember the innumerable 44 hair i 6capes " each one bad made, but prc-i sently, when a pause in the converga-l1 tion afforded an opportunity, the well; known voice of Old Hilly Hardyarn ' was heard emanating from bis accus- 1 tonied seat behind the stove, where be]! had been sitting for the last half hour, apparently halt asleep, and totally un-j moved by any of the perils which had been so veliemontly related in his pre- '1 scncc. 441 tell yon, boys," began Uncle Hilly, (as ho was called par excellence,) j I tell you, boys, lianit none of you ever seen a fight yit! No, none of you !" Now, if any of Uncle Billy's ; auditors bad taken this remark liter-1 ally, they would, no doubt, have been j disposed to join issue with him forth-; with; l>nt all understood him as he intended they should, that is, that the little affairs in which they had been cn- \ gaged, when compared with something | he had seen, amounted to no Jiaht at ?n t ( CP Uncle Billy aecompanined his re mark with a significant shake of his' head, as though he had unintentioii- i ally called up Rome painful retnem-1 brancc. A momentary silence follow2d, probably in the vain liopo that ; Uncle Billy would assign some reason for his remark, but as ho seemed to have finished, it liecarae necessary to politely requested hiin to favor tho audience with tho yarn. " Let's have it, Uncle Billy," said one fellow; but an ominous shako of the head was the ! only symptom the old man evinced of! having heard tho roqnest. "Spit it! out, old man,"?" Pitch in Uncle Billy,"?"Give us the yarn." These, and about half a score of invitations to proceed, all in the same slang, only elicited from the stuhi>orn narrator another negative of the head, but from a sort of intuitive freemasonry among them, one of tho crowd detected Uncle Billj in a melancholy look towards the Ino of decanters on the bar-room shelf. 4 w Let's hare liquor, boys, and then Uncle Billy will tell liis yarn. Coine all of you, take some liquor. It's my treat." A voluntary treat, in a country grocery, is not, as might be supposed, nn every day occurrcneo, and all hands seem to feel it incumbent upon them to respond to the rude invitation. Albeit, those who were really the keenest, to avail themselves of the treat, linng back ur.til they were asked the third time. A few minutes sufficed for the whole crowd to iw bibe ; the barkeeper restored the I well-sucked quart-cup to its place, came round to the stove, and all anxiously waited the commencement of Uncle Billy's story, which was, in substance, as follows : " When 1 first ci\me out trom tlic Kaintiick purchase,it was rather sparsely settled about here, and the first Fall after I come out, we run out of whiskey ; not a man in tho neighborhood had a drop. What to do, we did not know. But just afore Christinas, a fellow moved out from North Calliner ; and 'inongst his baggage, he managed to scrape up about a gallon of whiskey. Now, if I was to tell you what that whiskey was wuth, thai* and then, you'd swar 'twas a lie ; but, dog my cat, if I don't believe it was wuth a gallon of dollars. " Well, tho fust I k no wed of its belli" in tho country, was one of my neighbors come over and told me tliar was to be ashootin,match up at old Stepand-fetehct's grocery the next Saturday, for the Newcomer's gallon of whiskey. I told him lie mought jest count, me tlinr, for I was going, and I was honnd to tote off that roastinear juice. Thar was one fellow in the purchase,: who conld hold a candle to mo a slmotin, with ar iflc, ami, that was a tremenjus, great big, long legged, raw- ] boned, lanky-lully-fellow, what was always called Arthur Lcvcnrihs. lie and I had shot together several times, and I always managed to make him come out 6eeoml best. But he had sworn : that lie would bent me, if lie had to eli Aitf Ofvi 11 fill /J.* a a. _ 1 ?_ I oiiwu invi iiii viiiunci iuuis ins horn. " Well, Saturilny came, ami with my old rifle in number one order, 1 started for the grocery. There was about thirty fellows thar, all with thar rifles in apple-pie order and all a hanker-1 ing to git a shoot for that gallon of whiskey. Twant longafore the shoot- i in' commenced. I was about the fust one to shoot, and, as usual, I druv cen- j tre. Everybody had shot except J.ev-1 en ribs, and nobody had teched my gltot yitj wli.n f.uv uurilio ^?>uie (o| shoot, he put his ball in the same hole' mine had made. So him and me had 1 to shoot agin. We shot a second time, I and both plummcd the centre again;! and wo kept shootin', and 'twas tho i same thing every time. The crowd began to get awfully excited, tor thar was fourteen on my side and fourteen on his'n and they was a hollerin' and takin' on at. a terrible rate, and hetfinV [jvcrything they could raise. ()ne fel- j low on t'other side, swore he\l risk , mo head of horse on his man, and cv- j jry one of my men, that could raise a J irittcr, took him up afore lie had the ; words out of his mouth, lly-and-bv, I seed that Leveuribs was beginning to I get a little excited, and then L knowod i l\l git liim, though 'twas as much nsl' could <lo to keep cool myself. " Well, we had shot more than forty shots apiece, and, at last, Levenrihs I missed centre ju>t about tho width of 11 liar, and such hollerm' a d caperin' as my hoys done, you never seed the I like, for they know I was goin' to setLie !ho thing right oil*. I walked up to the slmotiu' place, and jest as I was a raisin' my gun to my face, she accidentally went off, a thing she never did before or since. 41 call that shoot,' said 1, as quick as [ could, and before the ball was fairly out of my rille.? 4 No you shan't,' says Levenrihs, and the hoys on hotli sides took it up. My side a swearin' I nhould take it back, and t'other side swearin' I and that the whiskey belonged to Levenrihs. Every fellow on both sides done his best at hollerin'and swearin'. for they all had bet on it; but in a few minutes one of my friends come and told me that my ball had struck a rock, about half way between me and the target, and had glanced ami knocked out tho centre. " Hello !" says I, '' I won't call that shooo ; let's go and see whar my bullet hit." And, when t'other side found that in)' bullet had glanced and beat 'em, they jest biled, and swore that it shouldn't count, because 1 called it, and my side swore as they wouldn't let inc call it when I wanted to, that now it should count, and I should not shoot it over. And, after lowering awhile, evory fellow pitched into his man, and thar was fifteen pair ot men a fighting at once. I, of course, had locked horns with Levenribe, and whon all tho rost was done, ho and I was jest gettin' in a good way. We coinrnonced fightin' about ton o'clock in tho morning, and tit like all wrath till sun-down. I boSun to get awful tired, and was afraid mt if Lovcm ihn didn't soon gin in, that I must: and while I whs thinking what I had beet to do, my old woman, who had heard what was a goin' on, oome n tearin*, and as soon as she got within hollerin' distance, she begnn: 44 Jiooraw, my Bill t" As soon as I heard her, I knew that if I got whipped, she wonld think she had just cause and provocation to leave my bed and board, as the sayin* is. So I made up my mind to whip that fellow, or die, right thar. So 1 gathered nil the little strength I had, and I socked my thumb in his eye, and, with my fingers took a twist on his siiot-box, and with the other hand, I grabbed him by the buck of the head ; I then caught his car in my mouth, giu his head a flirt, and out came hisearbytJte txpote / I then flapped his head over, and caught his other car m my mouth,and jerked that out in the same wav. and it made a holo in his head that I conld have rammed my fist through, and I was just a goin' to do it, when ho hollered : " 'NufY!" " My old woman then jumped upon a stump, and hollered out: " If any feller in this crowd says that ain't Bill Ilardynrn's whis key, jest let him trot his wife out, and I'll use her a darned sight wuss than my old man has done Artli Levcnriks, I and if he's got no wife, I'll put him through I" But none of'em (tared to take her up, and after comparing notes a whi'e, every fellow started for h< mj, thinking he had seen a tight as was a fight. " Boys, I won that whiskey ; but it was right expensive !" " But what did lie do for yon, Uncle Bill 2" said one of the listeners. " Well, that's changing the subject,' I said Uncle. Bill, " lint to tell the truth, } 1k?vs, he did take ((ft' no me tdyn, if you J call all my har any ; and next day j some of us went to the place, and ! picked up a two-bushel basket even full of ears, noses and eyes, that had been bit off and gouged out in the I fuss."

A Capacious Carpet BagMeanness occasionally meets with a shock that is a lesson to all concerned, especially to the victim. On the I Cleveland car-;, a short time since, coming to Uulfalo, was a stalwart man, going to New York to buy goods. lie was not what might, be called a stingy or close man, but lie' was one who. U'Ihmi thorn \eae > ? * > .!..<> I.In., that swindling might deprive him of. would sacrifice a fifty dollar bill to | save the copper.

He was lost for alMint ten minutes, perfectly obihpous' to anything, save that lie had a blessed consciousness of something rapidly and agreeably filling up bis ' inwards.' About this time the landlord came] round, and stopping by our Irknd's chair, ejaculated? 44 Dollar, sir." 41A dollar," responded the eating man, 44 a dollar?thought 3-011 only charged fifry cents a meal tor one?eh C 44 That is true," said meaiinc**,44 but I count your carpet-bag one, since it occupied a scat." The table was far from being crowd- j ed. Our friend expostulated, but the landlord insisted, and the dollar was reluctantl}' brought forth. The landlord passed on. Our friend deliberately arose, and opening his carpet-bag fall to its wide ! month, discoursed to it, sa3'ing? I 44 Carpet-hag, it seems you're an itidij vidual, a human individual, since you ! eat?at least I've paid for you, and j now you must cat." Upon which he seized everything , catahlo within his reach, nuts, raisins, ! apples, cakes and pics; and 'mid the roars of the bystanders, the delight of his brother passengers, and the discomfiture of the landlord, phlegmatiI cally went and took his seat in the . ears.

A Short Sermon for Young MenText : Owe 110 man anything.? Keep out ot debt. Avoid it as you would war, pestilence and famine. Shun it as you would the devil. J Into it with a perfect hatred. Abhor it with an entire and absolute abhorrence.? Dig |H?tatoes, break stone, peddle tinware, do anything that is honest and useful, rather than run in dobt. As you vuluo good digestion, a healthy nppetito, a placid tempor, smooth pillow, sweet sleep, pleasant dreams, and happy waking,-keep out of debt. There is but little hojMj for a yotmg man who can recklessly wear the chain of debt, and speak with an air of humorous pity of bis creditors, as did that brawn youth who, on being asked how it was that he could sleep o' nights,4 involved as he was,'replied that ho could*nt imagine how his creditors could oontrive to <h> it. lib who will incur debts, which he knows he can never pay, or neglects obligations, which he has the tneaus to meet, is ?< a i m% i* X,i "If Olii U unci iu mivuior lunu. jikCH live by their goods, and ho who takc3 without paying, steals more than their value, for he has also tlto time and patienco of the owner, lie has to a decree destroyed honest credit, and in-1 jured some poor customer, more deserving indulgent aid than himself.? Debt is the hardest of nil taskmasters, j the crudest of all oppressors.

It breaks up the harmony of nature, and turns to dissonance all the voices of its melody. It furrows the forehead with premature wrinkles; it plucks out its light; it drags all nobleness and kindness out of the port and bearing of a man. It takes the soul out ot his laugh, and all stateliness and freedom from his walk. ' Come not under his accursed domin- ( i ion. Pass by it, as you would by a | leper, or one smitten by the plague. Touch it not. Taste not of its fruits, i fur it shall turn to bitterness and ashes on your lips. Finally, I say to ! each and all, but especially to you, young men, keep out of debt. {Illustrated JYews.
