Listen to her “Bird Songs” now. Nextweek you shall have a bountiful poem Just fresh from her pen. Then I thought, O gentle Laura, Of the mansions loir to sea, x That may be our happy dwellings In the far Eternity. We clip the following clever epistle from the Philadelphia Press: Apotheosis op Bonnes :—The great est hit ever made in periodical literature was the publication of the famous “ Chal dee Manuscript,” written by the Ettrick Shepherd, and extend, with considerable satire and personality, by John Wilson and J. G." Lockhart. ‘ This article offended numerous readers of Blackwood ,« Maga- . zirie, which it appeared, and led to a few libel suits. Some persons objected to its form, some to its satire. Eventually, how ever, this very article, for which the pub lisher felt hpuod to apologize at first drew much attention to Blackwood , was the foundation of its prosperity, and fiualy became its boast. There have been many imitations of it, but few successful. The best appeared jn the Knickerbocker Maga zine several years ago and had Lewis Gay lord Clark,, Professor Mapes, and some others of the same witty coterie, .for its authors. A writer well known in this city, by the soubriquet of “Samuel the Scribe/ has fayored us with another imita r (ion of the Chaldee Manuscript. It was writ ten for the /Vesjis dedicated to the Readers of the New York Ledger , (for whiohi, by the way, it is said that Charles Dickens u engaged to write a serial, running through six months), and very cleverly enlarges on the spirit of Mr. Bonner, the of weekly newspapers.

VIOKXOT Laura, now the Summer’s over, And the Summer birds have fled, Listen, darling, and I’ll tell you At their porting what they said. for I sat in lonely musing. While tho shadows deepen’d round, Where-the autumn winds came walling, With a low and dismal sound. When I heard a pleasant twitter •Midst the oak leaves waving high, And just caught a little glimmer Of light pinions rushing by. And I saw the birds had gathered, Flocks on flocks, among the trees, And.had what they sold been language, Then their words hod been like' those: — “ Since tho frost has killed the flowers, And the angry tempests say That tho winter storms aro coming, It is time to go away, “ From this valley’s sweet seclusion, And its many dear delights, 1 And tho woods that gave us shelter, Through the summer nights. “ jo the soil and sonny South-land There to find a brighter home; Where the sleigh-bells never jingle, And |he snow-clouds never come." Then I, listening more closely, their separate voices tell Of the sweet iuffti places, Wherein each one im'ont to dwell. The swallow knew a lolly place. Beneath a dark blue sky, a light-house by the sea-side reared Its beacon high. And iie sparrow of a cdfr nook, A poor man’s iipme beside; Ami the bluebird's eosile A tree, In a forest wild and wide. And the black-birds talked of rice fields, On the. Carolina plains; Bat the robins said, “When/cr we go, We know the Father reigns.” The thrashes know the “ttoMfat spot. Far in a cypress grove;” And the orioles, u an Mange bower, In an atmosphere of love.” So they scarcely seemed to sorrow, As they bade the North good-bys, But with joyous greetings, for the South, They swept across'the sky. Where there foils no chill nor frost-blight, Nor tits shadow of tho tomb; But the-boly plains forever wear A fadeless Eden bloom. 0 may there be no sorrow In my strain that bids fore well To this life, but for the future, Let a Joyous anthem swclL For though death may dim the glory Of the world we Journey through, Heaven will bo always beautiful.

And immediately them Was great re joicing throughput the land, for the New York Ledger had been sown broadcast among the inhabitants thereof. d. Now Robert, whose name is Bonner, said nnto himself, This thing! pleaSes me mightily, and hence forth the Ledger «hwll find an abiding place in every nook and corner of tbe land, even in the isle of the ocean. 7. And immediately there was gathered into the fold of Robert, #hose; surname is Bonner, tbe literati of the land. 8. Fanny, the fascinating, Sylvanus, whose surname is Cobbj Lydia, Alice, Emma, Phoebe, Emerson, whose surname is Bennett, Timothy, John, William, Thos. and George, the mighty poet of tho West, all did write for the New York Ledger, 9. And Robert rejoiced with exceeding great joy, for his pockets were filled with shekels, and the Ledger freely, prodigiously ! 1. And it efime to pass in the reign of James, the bachelor, that the maids and matrons of the land and Edward, whose surname is Everett, did counsel one with the other concerning the purchase of Mount Vernon on the Potomac, south of the line called Masßu and Dixon’s. 2. And Edward said, I will straightway prepare a lecture which shall melt the people, and cause them to contribute their mite unto the Fund called Mount Vernon. 3. Now Robert, whose surname is Bon ner, when he heard those things, said unto himself, I will gird on my buckler of bank uCt§s and ehekles-and astonish the natives! 4. He accordingly said unto Edward, Thy conduct commands /ny admiration; write thou bat a single year for the Ledger and ten thousand dollars currency of the real in shall be thy reward. 6. And Edward said unto ■ Robert, i accept thy gift offering to the fund called Moont Vernon,- aJ}d will write for the New York Ledger for tite space of twelve months. 6. Now Robert was again madehaAty, yea, thrice happy, for the Ledger did in crease and multiply ten, yea twenty fold. 7- And it came to pass in those days that certain scribes, sojourners in the land of Uncle Samuel, became envious of the success of Robert, and they dipped their pens in gall and wormwood, and said “ how are the mighty fallen !” 8.

Now, when the multitude heard these things, they were greatly amazed, and said one unto the other. Verily, the ways of this man Bonner surpasseth our com prehensions. 5.
