POETRY. AK8V WORDS. Angry words «re lightly spoken In a rash and thoughtles hour, Brightest, links of lile a re broken- By their deen, insidious power. Hearts inspired by warmest feeling, Ne’er before by anger slirr’il, Oil are rent past human healing, By a single angry word. Poison-drops of care and sorrow, Bitter poison-drops are they, Weaving for the coming morrow Saddest memories of to-day. Angry words, oh, let them never From the tongue unbridled slip; May the heart’s best impulse ever Check them ere they soil the lip. Love is much too pure and holy, Friendship is too sacred far, For a moment’s reckless folly Thus to desolate and mar. Angry words are lightly spoken: Bitterest thoughts are rashly stirr’d; Brightest links of lile are broken By a single angry word. TOip IS GEmY, GESTLY, THE. Touch us gently, gently. Time! 1^‘t ns glide adown the stream, Gently as we sometimes glide Through a quiet dream! Humble voyagers are we, Htieba.id, wife, and children three— All are one—and linked in love. One we’d be below, above. Touch us gently, gently, Time! We’ve not proud nor soaring wings, Our ambition, our content, Lies in simple, simple things, Humble voyagers are we. O'er life’s dim, unsounded sea, .Seeking only some calm clime:— Touch us gently, gently. Time! her. And yet—and is it not melan choly to believe it!—the chances are that even that girl, lovely aa she is, will die an old maid. At any rate, we will wager our old hoots that our widow gets married before her. Sneh, however, is the world. Evi dently there is a fault somewhere.— 'lliere must he a wrong in the way marring.* are brought about among civilized nations. Look at the nninher of old bachelors about, who have never ta ted the sweets of mstrimony. And look at the number of women, too, who are pining in single blessedness. The Great Being who presides over all things did not intend it to be so. He intended that every man should have a mate. Skrvkd nm Rioht.—A long wind ed subscrilter to a newspaper, after re peated dnnnings, promised that the hill ty. may always turn towsrds them with a refreshing feeling, shows, we think, as much genuine wisdom on the mer chants’ part, as it reflects glory on the true hearted poet.—PhenuxiUt Pio neer. ' A good story is told in an old paper of an aristocratic lady, who, being ask ed how she liked the dinner of Mrs. A.’s great party, replied: “The dinner was ej-plended, hut my seat was so jtromofe from the nick nacks, that I could not ratify my appetite, and the pickled cheries had such a defeel on my head, that I had a motion to leave the table; hut Mr. gave me some hartshorn, resolved in water, which be reaved me.” Onn Fellowship.—A female was recently run over by the cars, on the New Hampshire Railroad ; she was a should he paid by a certain day, if he widow and a stranger hut had in her were then alive. The day passed over, and no money reached the office. We WE ARE GRIIWI.VG OLD. old—how the thought are growing will rise. When a glance ia backward cast On some long rememliered spot that lies In the silence of Ihe past: It may be the shrine of our early vows, Or the tomb of early tears; But it seems like a far-off i^lp to us, In the stormy sea of yean*. Oh! wide and wild are the waves that part Our steps from its greenness now. And we miss the joy of many a heart, And the light of many a brow; For deep o’er many a stately bark Have the whelming billows rolled, That steered with us from that early mark; Oh, friends! we are growing old ! WIDOWS. Some people have a prejudice against widow s, but for our own part we never could tell what for. Gills will do very well in their places, hut one widow is worth a half dozen of them any way. Girls are so shy, so timid, so reserved, so hashful! Very few of them know how to make love, and when they do undertake it, it is so awkwardly done! But w idow s understand the whole pro cess. They are used to it. They are experienced cavaliers in the dashing court of Cupid. They know when to advance, and when to retreat. When to lay siege to a heart and when to at tack it by storm. More castles have succumbed to the dazzling bright eye of a widow, cluil in weeds, than were ever taken by the dreamy, melancholy robes of maidenhood. Believe us, there is more real danger in the dark and waving tresses of a bereaved one of twenty-two, than lurk in the golden locks of all girldom. See, there goes one of them now. Scarcely a twelve mouth has softened down her excessive grief. But woman can’t weep always. They are made of something else be sides tears; and that one has already found out that* her charms are not en tirely faded. Site has not thrown aside her sable weeds yet, hut the heavy and sombre bombazine has given place to a light and graceful fabric, and sets off more beautifully her symmetrical form, and falls more elegantly from her pol ished shoulders. Notice her little foot as she trips along—how daintily it touches the ground, and how adroitly she manages to exhibit the well-polish, ed ankle. Ah! that is a woman for you. But look at that Imnnet, will you. Seventeen summers could never man age to wear it after that fashion. See, how jauntingly it covers hor head, and !>ow many sly glances site is enabled to throw from beneath it! and every one a barbed arrow that transfixes the heart of some poor love-sick swain. Did you never notice how much more apt young men are to fall in love with widow s and girls that have passed the summer of lile, than with young girl* I Well, here is the secret of it. They are experienced anglers. They know with what hooks to fish, what bait to use; and how to draw in their prey. In this they have a great advan tage over girls who are still only in April and May. The former does three fourths of the courting, while the latter leave it ail to lie dons by their suitors. But here comes one of them. Look at her. She is decidedly pretty. She is a girl of eapaeity, and it is well cul tivated. She is what is called accom plished. Her toilette is perfect What colors could better become her com plexion, or what fabrics better suit her iormt- Look at that eye, if you can catch a glimpse of it beneath the lan guishing lid, how soft and dreamy.— Behold that brow, how white ami pol ished. See that arm, how Arm and round; those fingers, how soft and ta- G riog. lu conversation site is agreea- t, god a party ii incomplete without In the next number, therefore, of the newspaper, the editor inserted among the deaths a notice of his subscriber's departure from this life. Brettv soon after this announcement, the subject of it appeared to the editor—not with the pale and ghastly countenance usually ascril>ed to apparitions nor like them did he wait to he spoken to, hut broke silence with—“What, sir, did you mean by publishing my death?”— “ Why. sir, I mean what 1 mean when I ' the death of any other per son, viz: to let the world know that yon are dead.” “ But I nm not dead.” “ Not dead! then it is your own fault; for you told me you would positively pay your lull by such a day if you lived to that time. The day passed, the hill is not paid, and you positively must he dead; for I will not believe that yon would forfeit your word.”— “ Oh, ho! I see that you have got round me, Mr. Editor; hut say no more about it; here’s the money. And hnrkee, my wag, you’ll contradict my death next week f" “ O, certainly, sir, just to please you; though upon my word, I can’t help thinking you were dead at the time s|*ecified, and that yon have really come haek to pay this hill on account of your friendship to me.” —Arrine’s Cyclopedia. PehctL'ALITY.—A punctual man is very rarely a poor man, and never a man of doubtful credit. His small ac counts are frequently settled, and he never meets with any difficulty in rais ing money to pay large demands. Small debts min credit; and when a man has lost that, he will find liim«elf at the bottom of a hill, np which he cannot ascend. Small debts, observes Dr. Johnson, are like small shots—they are rattling on every side and can scar cely he escaped w itlinnt a wound, great debts are like a cannon, of loud noise and little danger. Ninety.nine out of a hundred will acknowledge the truth of the Doctor’s observation. Powkk ok Imauination.—The in fluence of the imagination on the ner vous system lias on some occasions produced eflects bordering on a state of insanity. The following is a case in point: A few years since, Elijah Barns, of Pennsylvania, killed a rattlesnake in his field, without any injury to himself, and immediately after put on his son’s waistcoat, both being of one color.— He returned to his house, and on at tempting to button his waistcoat, he found to his astonishment that it w’as too small. His imagination was now wrought to a high pitch, and he instant ly connived the idea that he had been bitten imperceptibly by the snake, and was thus swollen from its poison. He grew suddenly very ill, and took to his bed. The family, in great alarm and confusion, summoned three physicians, ami the usual remedies were prescribed and administered. The patient, how- ever, grew' worse and worse every minute, until at length his son came home with his father’s waistcoat dang ling nltovt him. The mystery was in stantly unfolded, and the patient being relieved from his imaginary apprehen sion, dismissed Ins physician, and was restored to health. Thest in Providence.—I know hut one way of fortifying my soul against gloomy presages and terrors of mind, and that is, by securing to myself the friendship and protection of the being who disposes of events and go verns futurity. He sees at one view the whole thread of mv existence, not only that part of it which I have alrea dy passed through, hut that which runs forward into the depths of eternity. When 1 lay me down to sleep I recom mend myseifto hie care; when I awake, 1 give myself up to his direction.—Ad dison. reclicnlc her husband’s card of Odd Fellowship, and the members of the order instantly took charge of her, watched over her sufferings with hro- thoilv kindness, and on her demise, bu ried her with respectful ceremony'. An Irish Musician, who now and then indulged in a glass too much, was accosted hv a gentleman with— ‘Pat, w'hat makes your face so red? ‘ Please yor honour,’ said Pat, ‘ I al ways blush when I spakes to a gentle man.* ‘Jake,’ said an old farmer, one day, to one of his mowers,‘do you know how many horns there are in a dilem ma?’ ‘ No,’ replied Jake, ‘hut I know how many horns there are in a quart of whiskey.’ The remark that, ‘ there is more pleasure in giving than receiving,’ is supposed to apply chiefly to medicines, kicks and advice.’ GANBXOATBS.

Getting up a paper and making it pay, beats the art of Addling all hollow. 'Asking Qiestions in a Hi rby.— “ Tom, a word with you.” “ Be quick, then ; I’m in a hurry.” “ What did you give your sick horse t’other day ?” “ A pint of turpentine.” John hurries home, and administer* the same dose to a favorite chnrg r who. strange to say drops off defunct in half an hour. His opinion of his friend Toni’s veteri nary ability is somewhat staggared. He meets him the next day. “ Well, Tom.” “ Well what is it.” “I gave mv horse a pint of turpen tine, and it killed him as dead as Ju lius!” ^ “So it did mine!” Gems ok Th^cgiit.—The mind mnv he overburdened; like the body, it is strengthened more by the warmth of exercise than of clothes. Uneasy and nmhitinus gentility is al ways spurious gentility. The garment which one has long worn never sits un comfortable. If you wish for care, perplexity, and misery, be selfish in all things, this is the short road to troubles. The forms and ceremonies of polite ness may lie dispensed with. In a mea sure, in the relaxations and intimacies of one’s own fire side, but kind atten tion never. The heaviest fetter that ever weighed down the limbs of a captive, is as the web of the gossamer, compared with the pledge of the man of honor. The wall of stone and the bar of iron may be broken, hut his plighted word never. Childhood is like a mirror, catching and reflecting images all around it.— Remember that an impious, profane, or vulgar thought may operate upon a young heart like a careless spray of water thrown upon |>olished steel, stain ing it with rust that no after efforts can efface. I never knew one who was in the habit of scolding able to govern a fa mily. What makes people scold ? The want of self government. How then can they govern others! Those who govern well are generally calm. They are prompt and resolute, but steady and mild.
