~ SELKCTKD POET IIY. rn^p^rr ... 4-=^=^ ,?,The Wife. On earth, to man there is but one His heart can love?his soul can own ;' Though myriads Sit before hts view, Theie is but one to whom he's true? That ono can sway hira to and fro ; Can make him drean the cop of woe; Can give him joy, or blast his life ; Aud that oue'a name is simply wife. Dut in that name a world is sphered, A world by all beloved, revered, Who have iiie sense to know its worth, And spurn the gaudy joys of earth ; For that full heart in her dear breast? If riodi'lv nrir,ed?eternal rest Is not with blissful sweets more rife, Thau that puie heart?a loving wife. MISCELLANEOUS. The Sunbeam, the Dew-Drop and the Rose FROM THE rEB8IAN. A Dew drop linng trembling like a timid tiling upon the soft velvet leaf of a Rose. It, sparkled and flashed, each ti.no the wind wooed the rose bud, with myriads ol' brilliant hues, till it seemed as if a rainbow had been imprisoned within its crystal bosom, and was struggling to escape. Now. the 1 rose beheld its beauty, and thought she had nevor before seen such a love ly creature: so she spoke to it gently, ! in a voice that seemed like the essence of a summer wind. " BQantrfnt Dew-drop!*' said the 1 Rose, " I love you. Von ave li^o the ! slurs that I see looking down 1'foin i heaven on 1110 when the wind wakens mo at night; hnt L love yon more than ' I do tlioin, for you are near me, and 1 they, are tar away. Come dwell with ' me for ever, sweet gem of tho morning, 1 and'to thee will I unlock all the fragrance,of my bosom." The U >se, as she spoke, unfolded tier dc\ioate loaves, until the Dew-drop he- : held the depths of her heart, glowing J with love and passion. 1 Just then a sly Sunbeam peeped but ' from behind an embroidered cioud, j mill u:IU' l'.w? n.iaf-ili'?iv 1 ? 1. ....... ...... w.??f V.IV iyvy?* IIU|/ ??

It would glad-j ly have roigned in the golden heavens !" and been the queeil of the stsirs, but it feared the fierco ardor of tlio Sun-!' beam; and then the R ?se kept wliis-] poring such sweet things to it with itSij mossy lips, that it could not help loving its gentle voice. So it thought a little, and then replied to the Sunbeam, thus: 41 O, golden Sunbeam! who ga/.est at mo with tliino eyes of splendor ; f tliou art far too grea>; for me to love ' thee. What would I, a poor timid Dow-drop do, wedded to such a mag- ' liiiieence as thine? At thy first ein-1. -brace, 1 should melt away, and vanish j like the morning mist upon the hills.

' "Don'i Stay too Long:!" 1Vo fepmmend aabioiued truthfullj? pifftietlc Waif, which we find flouting among our exchanges, to merchants and business men who have no time for their wives and families. Would that every husband who reads the Merchant's Magaziuo might profit by it: . "Don't 6tay long!" said a young wife tenderly, one evening, as her husband was preparing to fjo out. The words themselves were insignificant, but the look of melting fondness with which they were accompanied spoke volumes. It told the whole vast depths of woman's love?of all her grief when tho light of his smile, the source of all her joy, beamed not brightly upon her. " Don't stay long, husband 1" ami I fancied I saw tho loving, gentle wife sitting alone, anxiously counting thoj momenta of her husband's absence,! every few moments running to the door to see if he was in sight, ami finding that lie was not, I thought-1 could hear her exclaiming in disappointed tones, " Not yet!" " Don't stay long, husband 1" and 1' again thought I could see the young wife rocking nervously in the great urn-chair, and weeping as though her heart would break, as her thoughtless ' lord and master" prolonged his stay to a wearisome length of time. Oh, you that have wives to. suv, 'Don't stay too long 1" when you go forth, think of them kindly when you ire mingling in the bn9y liivc of life, . ind try, just a little, to make their learts and home happy, for they* arc veins too seldom replaced. You canlot find, amid the pleasures of the I ivorld, the peace and joy that a wo ! nan's presence will afford. "Don't stay long, husband!" and ho young wife's look seemed to say, For hero in your own sweet hoine is . i loving heart, whose music, is hushed ; vbon yon are absent; hero is a soft jreast to lay your head upon, and here ire pure lips, unsoilcd bv sin, that vill pay you with kisses for coming! >aok soon."

" Going to draw my pension," was the reply. " Pension !" echoed the astonished landlord, " What does go small a boy as yon draw a pension for ?" " Minding ray own business, and letting that of othevs alone 1" The landlord sloped. " Yoc had better ask for manners than money," said a finely dressed gen tloihan to a beggar, who asked for alm9.

A correspondent ot'tlio Lambcrtville (N. J.) Beacon save, that a short time 6inee, while staying at the borough of E , ho overheard the following, which he thinks too good to be lost: A number of politicians, all of whom wore seeking offices under the Government, were seated on the tavern porch, talking, when an old toper, named Jako I) , a person who is very loquacious when "corned," but exactly opposite when sober, said, that it* the company had no objection, he would tell them a story. They told hitn to u fire away," whereupon ho spoke as follows: " A Certain king?don't recollect his name?had a philosopher upon whose judgment he always depended. Now. it so happened that, one day, the king took It into his head to go hunting, and, after summoning his nobles, and making all the necessary preparations, he summoned the philosopher, and asked him if it would rain. The philosopher told him it would not, nud he and his nobles departod. "While journo}'mrr nlnuir tl WUf Dial O 1 ? />iuw II1\^V (* Wlllltl > JIUlll mounted upon a jackass; lie advised them to return, 4 tor,' said ho, 4 it certainly will rain.' They smiled contemptuously upon him, and passed on. Before they had gone many miles, however, they had reason to regret not having taken the rustic's advice, as a heavy shower coming up they were drenched to the skin. When they had returned to the palace, tho king reprimanded the philosopher severely for telling him it would bo clear when it I was not. 41 met a countryman,' said | ho, 4 and ho knows a great deal more than yon, for he told mo it would rain, whereas, you told ino it would not.? The king then gave him his walking papers, and sent for the countryman, J who soon made his appearance. 4 Tell me,' said tho king; k now you knew it would rain,' 41 didn't know,' said the rustic, 'my jackass told me.' 4 And how, pray,' in great astonishment. 4 By pricking up his ears, your Majesty.'? 'i'he king now sent the country man awav, and, procuring the jackass ot him, lie placed him (the jackass) in the office the philosopher had tilled. And here, observed Jake, looking very wise, here is where the king made a great mistake." 4' How so?" inquired his auditors. 44 Why, ever since that time," said! Jake, with a grin on his phiz, "every Jackass .cants an office / Only Onk O'clock.?Air. joining home late one night, from 44 meet ing," was met at the (lour by his wife. I 'k Pretty time of night, Mr. , for yon to come home?pretty time, three o'clock it) tiie muring. you, a respectable man in the community, anil the father of a family."

One of the company, who had during the evening made repeated efforts at wit, said to tlio bov : u Sonney, <loos your mammy kno\v you're out t" u The little follow very cooly answered : " Yea, sir, iny ma gave mo three cents to buy a monkey ; arc you for sale ?" and passed on leaving the crowd convulsed with laughter. Had IIer There.?Two little girls, one a daughter of a clergyman, and the other a parishioner, fell into an angry dispute. To mortify and spite the antagonist, the little parishioner saw fit to remind her of hpi- ? < ?! 1 known poverty, anil intimated rather tartly that had it not been for her lather's benevolent interference, the poor minister would have been in tho workIxouse. " Well, 1 don't care," replied tho other u if it had not been for my lather your's would have been in hell long ago." A lady occupying room letter Ik, at a hotel, wrote on the elate as follows : " Wako letter 11. at seven ; and if letter II. says, "let us he," don't let lis he, nor let letter II. he because if you let letter 11. be, letter 11. will he unable to let her house to Mr. 11. who | is to 1X) on hand at hulfpust seven."
