From the Youth's Cabinet 11
Mary Miller and Helen Parks : or
the folly of discontent.
Many years ago, I read a story which for- i
cibly illustrated Tolly of discontent, ft ,
was in poetry, bur here is the ttrr substance |
<jf it, in address of plain prose.
A farmer's daughter, I will call Mary !
* Milter, was permitted to take a walk in the'
fields one Saturday afternoon. She had J i
b*en to school all the week, and this privi- 1
lege delighted her very much. She soon |
left the dusty rond, and rambled from hit
lockjto hillock, gathering the flowers which
pleased her fancy. Some'imes she watch
i .1 - I
ed the glassy brook, and listened 10 me
merry birds. Sometimes she bounded af
ter the gay butterfly, and then ran to pick
some flower whose gaudy colors nttr icted
her ye. In short, wherever her light
heart prompted, her nimble feet carried
her.
She was near die road-si le, when she
saw a glittering coach pass slowly by.
There was no one in it but a little girl about
Mary's nge. A driver sat in front, guiding
the sleek horses, which trotted in their rich
harnesses. When the t'iri wi>hed to sop,
instantly checked them; when she wh.shed
to go forward, they started at his word. A j
footman was on his "stand" behind. If the j
little girl saw a flower in th?- field, or by the J
road.side, she had only to speak, and the
carriage stopped while the footman ran to
fetch it. In short, she seemed to have no
wish ungratified- As Mary looked at the
coach, her heart sunk, her feet lost their
lightness, and her spirits their gaiety, and
her face its smiles. She walked gloomily
along, and w ith sour looks and pouting lips,
she entered her mother's humble dwelling.
Have you not hud a deligh'ful wulk, my
-U.i.I V* -i.?
i ujiw ' ofni o *u*
'O no," said Mary, pettishly. 4,I should
have enjoyed it pretty well, but Helen Parks
came along in her carriage, and when I
saw how happy she appeared, with her
coachman and footman to wait upon her,
and remembered that J was n poor girl, and
must always go afoot and wait upon myself,
I could hardly help crying. If she wanted
anything, she had only to speak, or point to
it, and the footman instantly ran and brought !
it to her. But when I something I wanted,
if it was ever so far off, I must go and
get it inyaelh I don't menu to walk out by
ttnu road imy more."
Her fretful voice was scarcely hushed,
when Mrs. Parks came in.
How did your daughter enjoy h"r ride
this afternoon f'* said Mrs. Miller, when.her
wt-a'thy guest had thrown herself languidly
upon an unciishioned chair.
H re the reader should know that Hel? n
was lame, so that she had not walked several
yars.
Sue would have enjoyed it pretty well,"
said die lady, in a tone of condescension,"
hut just as she came where she had the fines
prospect, she saw u little girl skipping
about the fi'iIs. She watched her happy
movements as she ran wherever her fancy
led her, and when sh? rememberer! that she
could never enjoy herself thus, she suid s'ie
couid scarcely restrain her tears." *You
cannot think,'said sic ; *how sad it was to
feel thut I must be lifn d into the carriage
whenever I wish to take the air; and when j
I j?h pretty flower, I cnn never pick it j
myslf. but must wait till some one, who I
works for money, cnn go and fetch it to rne. |
1 watched ih?? happy g'rl.' s??id she, 4for a
few minutes, as shed.inced so gaily among
the birds and flowers, and then ordered the
fool man to bring me a few daisies which
pew by tl?e road side; but I soon threw I
them away,' she added; *for I could not bear
to look at them.' She directed the coach,
man to drive home, that her feelings might
no longer be aggravated by the sight of
pleasure which she could not share. When
the footman brougat her in, and plard her i
carfully upon the sofa, she laid her face j
upon my lap, and wept profusely. Mother,' j
said she; 'I will never ride out by those !
fields again.'"
Life.?"How truly does the journey of a
tingle day,its changes and its hours, exhibit
the history of human life! We rise up in
the glorious freshness of a spring morning.
The d 'ws of night, those sweet tears of
nature, are hanging from each bough and
leaf, and reflecting the bright and myriad i
hues of lho morning. Our hearts are beat- ;
ing with hop", our frames nre buoyant with :
health. We see no cloud, we fear no
storm; and with our chosen and beloved
rnmiuinmn? clustering around us. we com. :
vw"'l c
mence our journey. Siep by step, the
scene becomes more lovely; hour by hour, i
our hopes become brighter. A few of our
companions huve dropped away, but in |
the multitude remaining, and the beauty of
the scenery, their lots is unfelt. Suddenly
we have entered upon >i new coun:ry.?
The dews of the morning are exhaled by
the fever ol the noonJay sun; the friends
that started with us art; disappearing.?
Som^ remain, but their looks arecoid and
estrange; others have become weary, and
have laid down to their rest; but- new faces I
are smiling upon us, nnd new hopes beckoning
us on. Ainbhion and Fame are
before us, but Youth and afT-ciion are behind
us. The scene is more glorious and
brilliant* but the beauty and freshness of the
morning have faded forever. But still
our steps fail not. our spirits droop not.?
Onward and onward we go: the horizon of
happiness and fame recedes as we advance
to it; the shadows begin to lengthen, and
the chilly airs of evening are usurping the
Noonday. Still we press onward; the goal
is no: yt't won. the h^v.,.?i yei reached, j
The orb of Hope that had cheered us on, J
is suiking in the West; our I'nibs growing '
fa nt, and our hearts sad: we turn io '
gaz?* upon the scenes that we have passed,
but the shadows of tire twilight have Interposed
their.y? il between us; we look around
Tor the old and familiar faces, tho con.pan.
iorts of our travel, hut g.?z?* in vain to find
tSerinJ we have outsripped them all in the
ra^e after plea<ur , anij the phantom yet
uncaugl.t, in a land of strange s, in a sterile
and inhospitable country, the night f.me
overtakes us; the dark nnd terrible ni?l,t
time of death, and weary nnd heavy laden,
we lie down to rest in the bed of the grave !
Happy, thrice happy is he, who has laid
up treasures for himself, for the distant
and unknown to-morrow.?Knickerbocker.
ra? COBRA DE CAPELLO, HOODBA 08 SPECTACLED
SNAKE.
This deadly serpent is so denominated from
its being in the habit of expanding, when irritated,
a hood over the face, similar in appearance
to the cowl of a monk. There are also
two large livid spots, resembling a pair of uniform
lenses, connected by an arch, alike com
plexioned, which correctly represent a pair of!
spectacles. The bite of this snake occasions !
death after it has inflicted its wound. It is
very common in most parts of India, and during
the rainy seasons is extremely apt to steal into <
houses, to shelter itself against thejnclemency
of that destructive element, proving a dangerous
inmate among families, who are not
aware, until -it proves too late, that this deadly
reptile is living unobserved, in the midst of
them. There is however, one vigilant little
enenry to this snake, which is ever in pursuit
of him, and that it is the "mon goose," or
snake weasel. This creature is about the
size of a ferret, partakes largely of the ardour
of musk, and is capable of being domesticated,
so as to become as familiar as a house cat ?
When a "Cobra .de Cappello" perceives this
weasel, he coils himself up, emitting at the
same time a most foetid effluvium, to the nal.
ural effect of terror and alarm. The mon
goose runs round his enemy backwards and
forwards, its eye being fixed on its victim, and
when the critical opportunity offers itself, effects
a sudden spring-upon his scaly foe, seizing
him behind the occipit," and pressing its
teeth through the spine. Should the weazel be
bitten it immediately scampers off into the
Sarden, or some wood near at hand, and meicates
upon a peculiar herb which proves an
antidote against the "venuem" of the serpent.
There are few families in India that are without
those little useful animals which run about
the house and are exceedingly familiar in their
habits. They are equally destructive to rats,
mice, and other quadrupedal vermin. There
are a certain class or rather "caste" of native
termed "Sampe" Wallers," or snake catchers.
These men are in the habit of going about exhibiting
a varietjrof venomous serpents, which
they carry with them in fitly constructed
baskets This is a dangerous practice. About
three years since, one of this vagabond fraternity
whilst amusing a small assemblage of
spectators by the exhibiti >n of his feats with
six large "Cob a de capellos," during the act
of charming them with the modulations of his
pipe, one of the snakes contrived to seize him
(?*i the wrist. The poor itinerant immediately
fell conscious of his horrid fate; brandy was
copiously administered to him but without
producing any salutary effect. He was conveyed
to an adjoining outhouse, where in less
than 20 minutes he expired, under the most
agonizing convulsions.

ment he has entered into with the Editor of tne
"Gazette," will, he truatg, enable him to issue I
his periodical much more rpgularly than heretofore.
A temporary suspension of his publica
lion has resulted from the present arrangement,
and the Juno and July Nos. are now both due;
but if his patrons will pardon tho present delay,
they may rest assured they shall not again have
occasion to complain.
The Editor has been compelled to erase from
his subscription list, the names of almost every
delinquent, which has reduced it to* nearly onehalf.
His friends are therefore requested to
use their utmost exertions to procure additional
Cask subscriptions. .
Will not tho Editor'- Cheraw,
secure for hi;n a great increase of patronage in
South Carolina?
The price of subscription is so low that every
body pan afford to take the work. And if it is
sufficiently encouraged tho present year, ar.
nngements will be made to establish it perma.
nently.
The sums of money expended, in one year, for
useless apparel, would sustain this work in such
a manner as to afford its Editor a handsome
support, and enable him, besides, to contribute
81 IKK) per annum to the support of foreign and
domestic missions.
?T Back Nos. furnished all future subscribers.

Silk Worms' H-'ggs,
Of the best kinds and quality.
I can supply Silk Worms' Eggs in moderate
quantities of the following varieties:
1 1. Hardy gray and white worms, orange
1 cocoons.
2. Gray worms, mostly eulpliur colored i
I cocoons.
3. Two crop white.
I 4. Mammoth sulphur.
5. Pea nut.
' The three first named varieties a e from a
perfectly healthy stock, ana have been raised
( in the south for several years. The two last
' introduced from the north a year ago, were
t not entirely exempt from disease last summer}
but as thegrtatest care was taken to breed
qnly from the best cocoons, it is believed there
will be little or no sickness amongst them in
- n.iitro frnm anv hereditary taint. The cct?
, ~-J ?
cooqs of the pea.nut were very heavy and
firm. Of these two varieties however, only
a limited number can be supplied to each ap~
plicant.
, The eggs may be forwarded by mail to
parchasers al their cost and risk of carriage;
i or they will be deposited in Richmond (if so
) desired) at Cotton and Clarke's, Pee of exi
pense, within two or three days after the order
has been received, and where they will be
i kept in a cool cellar until called for. Or in'
e case purchasers might prefer it, they may
remain in my ice-house until nearly the time
they are wanted to batched?as there will be
no danger of their hatching, even in June or
July, in less than two weeks after being re**
moved from the ice, if kept there in proper
manner, as these eggs will be. The eggs will
in all cases be warranted to be in the beet
,t condition when they are fotwarded, (with the
a slight exception stated to the last kinds;) but ^
li if it shall appear that they are not, the puie
chase money will be refunded.
For the three firsc named varieties, the
charge will be 85 per ounce?for the other
>f two varieties 810 per ounce, the cash always
n to be sent with the order. When clean eggs
are not sent, the paper on which they are
deposited will be balanced by an equal quantify
of the same kind.
