n
A merry Christmas I to each one
Who roads this sweet address.
A hearty dinner, lots of fun
And then a pood night's rest,
And when the morning comes, l bopo
No body'll undertake
To hung himself on to a rope,
Or have a bad headache1
But let me introduce to you
Your much admired friend,
Who having nothing else to do,
Does here before yon alandDon't
ask him now to take a scat,
And that about the news,
'Cause he must hurry up the street,
And hardly could refuse.
'Tin me, myself, T moan to say,
That stands before you here,
That positively could'nt stay.
Though you sheuld bring a chair.
1 am the boy what carries round
''The Herald'' to your house*,
And now to every one in town,
I comes, sod so I bowses,
Perhaps it niav not bo amim
To show my Indication,
By offering to each one a kiss,
Of kind Congratulation.
My face, 'tis true is rather black.
But thai by no menus matters,
'Twii! not prevent a hearty smack.
'Cause Printers ink uont spatters
Be.v.dca a little pearl-ash lye
WillikK?n remove the stain,
And then thoui'h you're aa black as 1,
You'il 'soon come white again.
Borne people think that printer boys,
Ainl half so good as others.
But them at Prince's and Mutiny's,
Don't claim t' have any brothers.
One thing I know, I always did
Deliver vou the news.
As loou as f"om the Frost* it slid,
Wherever you might choose.
The Car? have never run off yet
But I hare coma to tell
Ilow many people got upset,
And on which aide they fell,
And if by chance a cow was caught
And slaughtered on the track,
With all these aril tiding.* fraught,
live kept not one ward back.
v When Congressmen get pretty tight,
gL' A nd call each othet ''liar,"
sSk Or when to keep ont of a fight,
c They n?n and tell the "eqnlrn,"
Whou "CVinrfs" instead of ballets, fly,
And the "affair's" "adjusted."
I place it all before 'you eye,
To show the bubbles borstal.
When "Young America" takes oo
At such a monxtrone rate,
That all the ropes and chains in town,
Cant chock their rapid gate,
And poor "Old Fogies" in alarm,
Look on and call it "sin,"
i bring tho "Herald" on my arm, To
"hold the young ones in."
I've kept you well informed I know,
About the Csshior s too
For "Hoops" and "Flats" are all the go
And nothing else will do,

I DID NOT THINK OF THAT. \
One day as Mr. Lawson, a merchant ?
' tailor, stood at hie cutting board, a poorly 1
S dressed woman entered his shop, and ap- t
prone ling him, asked, with somo embarI
rassaieut and timidity, if he bad m.j work i
1 to gJVC out. |
"What can you/lo ?" a*ked the tailor, ]
' looking coolly upon his visitor.
"1 can make pantaloons and vats." ?
?i, answered the girl.
"Hare you ever worked for a merchant y
1,1 i tailor?" ho asked. <;
"Yes, sir, I have worked for Mr. y
Wright," replied the girl. ' ?
4? 11 he nothing for jou to do?" y
"No, not jnsfc now; he has regular l
i i hands who always get tho preference " r
/'Did your work suit him I
"He never found any faplt with it "

"In Cherrr street, No ?." i J
Mr UwHoti stood Mid mused for n short '

taking a small bundle from the shelf, 1
i "which I want by to-roorrow evening at ,

very neatly, and havo it done in time you
can take it." I
"It shall bo dotto in time," said the |
young woman reaching out eagerly for tho '
bundle.
And, remember, I shall oipect it well '
tnado. If I like yotlr work I willgivo you '
more." I
"I will endeavor to pleaso you," re- 1
turned the young girl.
' To-morrowevcuing, recollect."
"Yossir, I will havo it done."
Tho girl turned and wont quickly away.
In a hack room, in the third story of an j
old house in Cherry Street, was tho home
of the poor sowing girl ?Ajs abe entered,

It proved to lie white Marseilles. As f
toon as the invalid saw thin, she said : j,

it doue in time, Ellen ; you are not fast ; (
with the needle, and besides, yon are very {,
far from being well." . 1
"Don't fear in the leant, Mary; I will i (
do all I engage to do." ,
It was after dark the next night when |
Kllen finished the garment. She was wee {
ry and faint, having taken no food since ,
morning. The want of everything, and |
particularly for heraelf and slater,' made
seventy-five cents, the sum she expected to ,
receive for making the garment, a treasure
in ker imagination. She hurried off with
the vest the moment it vu finished, ?ajiog
to her sister, 4<I will be bnok as aoon

'lljw it it half past eight o'clock, and
the vett is not in jet," said Mr. Lcwmr,
in a fretful tone "1 had my doubte
about the girl when I give it to her. But
aha looked ao poor, and teemed ao earn eat
about the work, that I waa weak enough to
trust her with tho garment." At thie
moment Kllen came in and laid the a oat
on the counter, where Mr. Laweon wee
tUnding. She said nothing, neither did
he. Taking the Teat, he unfolded it in a
manner, which plainly showed him not
to be in a very placid frame of mind
'Qoodnetal" he ejaculated, turning

taking up tho vest brought it back to j
where an elderly man wan sitting, and
holding it towards him, said, by way of
apology for the part he had taken in tha
little scene, "That is a beautiful article j
for a garment to wear, isn't it 7" The man
made no reply, and the tailor, after a pause
*dded. "I refused to pay hor as a matter I

not make the garment when she took it {
tway. She will bo more oareful how she
tries to impose hersolf upon customer tai- |
lore as a good rest maker."
"Perhaps," said the elderly gentleruaa
in a mild way ''necessity drove her to uniertake
a job that required greater skill
than sho possosacd. She certainly looked '
vory poor
' It i.as beoanee she appeared so poor

vho was known as a pious and good man,

FBKE MASONRY IN TURKEY.
Cunjitantinopt.b, Oct. 12, 1850.?The
subject of Kreo Masonry has begun to atj
tract considerable attention in the Eaat,
and lodges are being established here and
1 at Smyrna, i am informed that some foitv
years ago a French lodge exuded at
Constantinople, which coaaod through want
1 of sufficient supporters, and moro recently
there was one in Smyrna?a military lodge.
Now there are three at Smyrna, and ono
in abont to be opened here. At the outset
tho lodge of Smyrna was opened and work- i
ed with a warrant of the Grand Lodge of
I Ireland, whose Master is the Duke of Le- ,
instor, the S. W., the Earl of Donoughmore;
J. O W., tho "larquis of Conyng.
hain, and the D. G. M., George Hoyle,
K*].( as tho Albany Lodge No. t>5. Seventeen
Masons of good standing and of
high rank in Masonry constituted themselves
an Independent Grand Lodge of
Turkey, forming their macna oharta. and
recognized by all the Grand lodges of Ku- |
rope. \
Subsequently 43 Master Masons residents
in Smyrna applied by petition to the Grand
Lodge of Turkey, for warrants to form three
J/>dgea tributary to the Grand I/>dge of
Turkey, whose authority and superiority
over all Lodges in Turkey, or horonfter to
bo established is a acknowledged. Tho
Grand l<odgo having met in grand chapter,
after mature deliberation and tho lapse of
two months, granted the warrants, nnd
that they oro now in Smyrna, legally and i
regularly formed, consecrated and installed
three lodges, called lona No. .1, Anatolia
No. 2, Byzantium No. 8, with 110 members
in all, 21 others under proposition.
No. 1 works in English, No. 2 in Italian,
and No. 3 in French language. As some '
of the members speak only the Greek :
tongue, th?y also occasionally work in thnt

it meets ul! join in it. Tjfe Deputy (Jmnu
Msster is Mr. C. G - Carrcr; the Grand
Muster of the Ionia is fir. J. Langdon, an j
i American; the Bjznutium 1/vitro lies for!
its Qrvud Master M. Kaigor, a French- '
man; of the Anatolia 1 have not yot heard
the ntuo of tho Grand Master.
It has been for noroo time past contemplated
to apply for a warraufc lbr a ledgo for
i this place. There arc a largo number of
Masons here, some of whom are Mussulmcn,
among whom are II. E. Fsad Pash,
. the premrnt Minister of Foreign Affairs,and
H. 8. Cabrali Effendi, the Chief Dragoman
of the Sublime Porte. D is believed i
that there aro other Muxsulmen Masons, !
though I do not know their namerr. fir. I
.1. P. Brown, the Pmgowanof the Anieri
1 can Location, a Master Mason, is the raoi
ver of tho lodge intended for Constantino;
pie. I loarn that Many Turkish gentle.
men will apply for reooption as toon as tho
, lodge ia established.
There has been for mauy jears past, it is
said, a Masonic Lodge at Belgrade on the
j Danube, called "Ali Kotch," composed of
! 70 members, the G. M. of which is named
Tiara Ismail Sobolab Mehemet Sandi. So
I says a late account of it which I hod in Ga* j
i ugnaors rncaaoogar, or ApnittU, iSoD, taken
from a Trieste paper. I bare made
1 some inquiry here about tbia lodge, and
hare been able to procure no stiafbetory
account of it. I am ensured, however,
that such a lodge does exist, under the
i name above mentioned, and this is allI
have not been able to loam that Ma*
sonry exists at all among the Turks or
the Arabs, Badly informed European
writers declare that it has existed among
the Arabs for a great number of eenturice?long
before the Christian era;
but no Turkish Author, 1 am told, mentions
anything of the kind, and the boat
read Turks of this capital, who on ght i
to know it?some of thor of Arabian I
origin?assure me that it ia nut ao. The
individuals mentioned above aa being
Masons, became such in England. The
Turks, in general, believe Masons to be
all atheisti, though the higher classes
are convinced of the contrary.
I am almost inclined to believe that
the so-called Easonio Lodge of "All
Kotoh" at Bolgrade is nothing more
than a Tekkieh, or convert of Derviahes
of Persian origin. Ita name ia not
Turkish. I am led to this belief from
the following part of the article above
quoted, which savs:
' In Turkey, hreetuaenns wear, aa a
distinctive mark, a small brown shawl,
ornamented with different figures, and
a dudahordron or white marble of ab^at
two inches in diameter, highly polished
and and baring red spots of blood, and
are a remembrance of Ali, who intro,

AN AMUSING STORY. | j
The eoene is laid in tho mountain re i
gions of Georgia. Mr. Forgcroe, a black- i j
nuiiih, had s great antipathy against all 1
Methodist preachers in particular.
His shop was in a narrow mountain pass, '
and he declared his determination to whip '!
every Methodist preacher that passed the
shop. The Rev. Dr. Stuhbleworth, however,
readily consented to go theio, and
the following describee his ride through 1
the mountains:
Forgeron had heard of his new victim '
and rejoiced that his size and appearance j
famished a better subject for his sen-;
genee then the attenuated frame of the 1
late parson.?Oh, what a nice boating he ,'
would bare! He had heard, too that '
some ministers were rather spirited, and
hoped that this one might be provoked to
fiijbt. Knowing that the clergyman must
pass on Saturday, in the afternoon, he .
gave his striker a holiday, and regaled |
hiuftolf cm the beauties of Torn Pajno,awaiting
til* approach of the proecher. It
was not over an hour before ha hoard the
words:
' Oh how happy are they who their Saviour
obey,
And have laid up their treasure* above."

io, or I'll maul you into a jelly- The first
s, you aro to quit preaching ; the second
\ you wear tills last will acdjtestarncnt ol'
rbomafl Paine next to your heart, rc*Ad it
tvery day and tolievo every word yoU
cad ; and tho third is 'that jou aro to
surse tbe Methodist in every crowd you
lot into.' And the blaoltsmith 'shucked'
limself, rolled np his sleoves, and took a
piid of tobacco.
The proachor looked on during the novel
reparations without a lino of his fae?; movng,
and at tho end be replied that tho
erros were unreasonable, and he would
tot submit to them.
4 Well, you're not a whaling to submit
o; then 1,11 tear you into doll rags, oornor
rays? (Jet down, you lung faced hypotrite.'
The preacher remonstrated, and Forger>n
walking up to tho horse, threatened to
car hiui off if he did not dismount whereipon
the worthy tnado n virtue of nece?*i>
y and alighted.
I liavo one request to uinV o, uiy friend
-that is you won't boat nie with tbi?
ivorcoat on; it was a present from tho
adies of my last oircuit, and T. Jo not wish
o havo it torn.'
' Off with it, nnd that suddenly, jou
?aro faced imp, you.'
Tbo Methodist preacher slowly drnw off
tis overcoat as the blacksmith continued
lis tirado of abuse of him end soct, and,
browing the garment behind him, ha dealt
dr Forgcron a tremendous blow between
ho cyos, which laid that person on tho
rround, with the testimony of Tom Paio<
icsidc In in.
Mr. Stubbloworth, with the tact of a ?
rcnnoisseur in suoh matters, did not wait
or his adversary to rite, but mounted him
vith the quickness of a cat, and bestowed
lis blows with a courteous hand on the
itomnch ami face of the blacksmith, con.
inuiDg his nooq whore he had left off on

Tongue cannot express the.sweet comfort, &' "
iniil Forgeroi>, from having experienced
Grot, love/ or sorue othor aensatiou equally lew
to him, responded hastily :
< Knough S enough ! enough I take him
>ir.'
1'ut. unfortunately, there wns no one bj
0 perform that kind office, exoept the
treachcre old romj, and he munched a
junch of gaas and looked on a* if hia utas.cr
wiw happy as a oainpmeeting,
' Sow,' gaid Stubbloworth, <thero are
,hrcc things you inurt promise me, before

' What are they V asked Forgcron, eagery.

'The first is, that you will never mo- N'
est a Methodist preacher again.'
Here Ned's pride roee, and ho heaitat*
ad ; and the reverend geutlesuam, with hia
usual benign smile on bia face, renewed hia
blows and sung;
'I then rode on the sky, freely Jnstilird I,
And the moon it woa uuder mv feet.'

?You are getting ou vary well/ naid Mr.
Ktubbleworth, 'I think I can make a decent

Ned groaned.
iTho seoond thing I reutfirc of you is ,
to go to Putukin Creole meeting house and
hour me preach to-morrow/
Ned attampted to etammor out some ex-*
ruse, when the divine resumed hie devotional
hymn, and kopt time with the musio,
striking him over the face with the fleshy
part of hia hand. .
