A Fow Brief Years. A few brief years and I shall lie, Beneath 3*011 enlui and peaceful sky, Whose breast is bright with notes and bars. And laughing music of the stars? Whose bosom, spreading from polo lo pole, In silence will my grave console. With straightened limbs my shade will rest. My head against 1113' colllu pressed ; And hour by hour, and day by day, My wasted bones will pussnway. This band that writes will then be cold, And shrunk and eaten with the mold Of time aud death and dark decay. Till joint by joint returns to clay. The dread, the fear, the torment sore, Will rend my heartstrings never more; Nor human wild;; nur worldly strife, ? To barely win the bread of llle. Will ne'er, within my narrow bed, ? Disturb or wake my wearied head, A thousand years will pass me by, Without a change in laud or sky ; No winter's snow, nor summer's heat, "Will e'er disturb 1113' winding sheet. At evening'B close Hi meet no more The smile that waits me at the door; . The bills und dales and streams will be A mute forever to me. No morn will wake me at its dawn ; No more, on mead or liehlor lawn, When landscapes smile beneath the sun. Will romping childhood to me run. My span of life, my humble lot. Eike friend's vows, will be forgot: And all the world will live the same Ab If 1 never bad a iiamo. King Frederick s Joko. Conspicuous among the few men of : hia lime who ever got the better of ".Fredrick the Great in a jesting en counter was au Abbot of the Catholic Monastery of Cainenz, who succeeded in that high ollice the wen thy Abbot Tobias, an old favorite aud friend of the Protestant hero whom, upon a memorable occasion, he had saved from captme by a party ol foraging Croat horsemen. The King disliked the new Abbot as heailily as he liked the old one ; but having been bospiln tily entertained by htm during the last, visit he ever paid to Cumc-ttz, In deem it lilting lo recognize bis host's attentions by some special mailt ol Royal grace, and, calling the Abbot to his carriage window, as he was About to drive away from the monas tery gates said to him, ask me a fa vor." "Sire," observed the Abbot, "our second bass choir singer is re cently dead. Doubtless your Majesty can dispose of many chorisds in Berlin. Will my All-Mightiest, All-Serenest Monarch design to begilt us with a second baas?" The King, after a moment's reflection, replied : I'll send you one from Neustadt on the Dosse. It flashed across the Abbot's mind that Frederick had some short lime previously set up au establishment for improving the breed of nsses in the very town mentioned by him ; and foreseeing what sort of bass singer the King's peculiar humor would prompt him to forward to Camenz, wherewith to recruit its choir, he rejoined, "Most Dead Sovereign, in token of our gratitude lor your gra cious bounty, and in accordance with the custom of our older, we shall be- I stow upon our new second l ass the name of his exalted honor. He will be known in our choir as Fiederieus! Secundus!" The King made no fit tempt to. return this dextrous home thrust, but drove in silence, which he maintained unbroken for nearly an hour ; when, turning lo his aide de-camp, he dryly observed ; "That is what one gets by joking with fools 1" But he never again alluded to an episode in which he felt that bo ha4 been thoroughly worsted. Farm Lite. A writer in Scribncr's ifagazhie as serts that the farmer, having the most eane and natural occupation, ought lo find life pleasant. Uc alone, strictly FpeakiDg, has a Lome. I low can a man trko root and thrive without land? He writes his history upon bis Held. How many ties, how many resources be has; his friendship with his cattle, his team, his dog, his trees; the satisfaction in his growing crops, iu his improved fields ; bis in timacy with nature, with bird and beast, and with the quickening ele mental force ; bis co-operation with the clouds, sun, seasons, heat, wind, rain and frost. Nothing will take the various social distempers which the city and aitilieial life breed, out of a trail, like fanning?like direct and loving contact with the jUiil. it draws out the poison. It humbles bin, teaches liim patience aud reverence1 and restores the pro pertone to hi* system. Cling to the farm, make int'.ch of it. put yoursell into it, bestow your hc.ut and your brain upon it, so that it. shall savor ol you and radiale your virtue tift? r-, your day's woik is done.

The surplus gold is actually needless so far as utili ty and beautv uro concerned. In JAM ES MOSS' PATEN IVGOLD WATCH OASES this waste of precious metal is overcome, [and IheSAMK solidity and stkknot11 I produced at from one-third to one-hail ! of the usual cost of solid cases. The pro jeess is of the most simple nature, as fol lows: a plate of uiekle composition met ial, specially adapted to the purpose, has i \vo plates of solid gold soldered one Jon each side. The three lire then passed between polished steel rollers, and the I result is a strip of heavy plated composi tion, from which the cases, backs, ceu tres. bezels, &c. are cut and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The gold in j these eases Is sufficiently thick to admit j o|* all kinds of chasing, engraving and Ienamelling; the engraved cases have been carried until worn perfectly smooth by lime and use without rethov I ing the gold.
