Select Poetry. THE OLD BURYING GROUND Our vales are sweet with fern and rose, Our hills are maple-crowned, But not for them our fathers chose The village burying ground. .The dreariest snot in all the land To death they set apart; With scanty grace from Natures hand, And none from that of Art. A winding wall of mossy stone, Frost-flung and broken lines, A lonesome acre thinly grown With grass and wandering vines Without the walls the birch trco shows Its drooped and tasseled bead; Within the staghorn sumach grows Fern-leafed; with spikes of red. There, sheep that grazo the neighboring plain, Like white ghosts come and go; The farm-horse drags his fetlock chain, The cow-bell tingles slow.• Low moans the river from its bed, The distant pines reply; Like mourners shrinking from the dead, They stand apart and sigh. Unshaded smites the sumnimer sun, Unchecked the winter blast; The school-girl learns the place to shun, With glances backward cast. For thus our fathers testified— That he might read who ran— The emptiness of human pride, The nothingness of man. They dared not plant the graves with flowers, Nor dress the funeral sod, Where, with a love as deep as ours, They left their dead with God. The hard and thorny path they kept; From beauty turned aside, Nor missed they ever those who slept The grace to life denied. Yet still the wilding flowers would blow The golden leaves would fall, The seasons come, the seasons go, And God be good to all. Above the graves the blackberry hcng In bloom and green its leaf, Tho harebells swung as if they rung The chimes of peaco beneath. The beauty nature loves to share, The gifts she has for all, The common light, the common air, O'ercrept the graveyard's wall. I knew,thii glow of oventide, Tho sunrise and the noon, And glorified, and sanctified, It slept beneath the moon, Select Miscellany. To the lackidasical youth, with an in ner 'consciousness of a fitness for a"great life mission," we commend the following sensible advice: "It is easier to be a good business man than a poor one. Half the energy displayed in keeping ahead, that is re quired to catch. up when behind, will Bare credit, give more time to buSiness, and add to the profits and reputation of your word. Honor your engagements. If you promise to meet a man, or do a certain thing at a certain moment, be ready at the appointed time. If you have work to do, do it at once, chcerfully,and therefore, more speedily and correctly. If you go on business, attend to the mat ter iromptly, and then, as promptly, go about your own business. Do not stop to tell stories in business hours. If you have a place of business, be found there when wanted. No man can get rich by sitting around stores and sa loons. Never 'fool' on business matters. If you have to labor for a living, remem ber that one hour in the morning, is bet ter than two at night. If you employ others, be on hand to see that they at tend to their duties, and direct with reg ularity, promptness and liberality. Do not meddle with any business you know nothing of. Never buy any article, sim ply because the man who sells it will take it out in trade. Trade is money.— Time is money. A good business habit and reputation is always money. Make your place of business pleasant and at tractive; then stop there to wait on cus- ja13'69.1v ozners Never use quick words, or allow your self to make ungentlemanly remarks to those in your employ; for to do so lessens their respect for you and your influence over them. Help yourself, and others will help you. Le faithful over the in terests confided to your keeping, and in all good time your responsibilities will increase. Do not be in groat haste to get rich. Do not build until you have ar ranged and laid a foundation. Do not —as you hope or work for success—spend time in idleness. If your time is your own, business will suffer if you do. If it is given to another for pay, it belongs to him, you have no more right to steal that, than money. De obliging. Strive to avoid harsh words and personalities. Do not kick every stone in the patch; more miles can be made in a day by go ing steadily on, than by stopping to kick. Pay as you go. A man of honor respects his word as he does his bond. Ask, but never beg. Help others when you can, but never give when you cannot afford to, simply because it is fashionable. Learn to say no. No necessity of snapping it out dog fashion, but say it firmly and re spectfully. Have but few confidants,and the fewer the better. Use your own brains rather than those of others, Learn to think and act for yourself. Ba honest. Be vigilant. Keep ahead rather than behind the times. Young men, cut this out, and if there is folly in the argument, • let us know. ja13'60.1.7 BY JOHN G. 'WHITTIER To Young Men. —[A. LicoLN.] Thrilling Love Story "Jim," said a young sailor to his cousin, who lived a long way inland,and Lad never seen the "bigwater," " Jim, lid you ever think of goin to sea ?" •' You mean going to see the gals, I suppose; I've been to see the gals lots of times." " That ain't what I mean," said the sailor "But what about going to see the girls? Can you give me an account of any of-your adventures?" " Well," replied Jim, "I never make a practice of telling such things. 'Taint a good plan; but I had a little larkin' scrape last spring, and as you live away off to Boston, and don't get such chan ces, if you'll agree to keep mum, I'll tell you all about it." "I will keep perfectly dark," said the tar Who was beginning to feel interested, "go on with iour story." "It does make me feel kinder ugly when I think on't, I'll be hanged if it don't, but it's all over now. You see, Suko Baker and I used to take great shine to one another. Suke was one of your right•down smart, well-looking and good-behaving gals. She appreciated me; and I appreciated her, and we never should had no trouble if it hadn't been for the old man. lie was a darned old snake-in-the grass, and made us more trouble than all the rest of the family. Suke and I never 'joyed ourselves, for he was always sneakin'round and thro'n' out hints, and makin' himself as hateful as he was homely. I got sick on't, and SO did Sake. I suppose the old scamp didn't like me, and didn't want me there. I don't know what else to make of it, for he told me, more than twenty times, to leave, and not come again. " Suke's room was in the end of the chamber, and I told her ono time to leave her window up, and I'd come in, and we'd have a bit of a visit. I know'd she wouldn't hesitate to do it, for I'm honest, and very 'speetful in my behav ure. Well, after the folks were all in bed, and the house was still, I goes and gets •a ladder, and puts it up to the win dow. I then pulled off my boots and crawled up. Suke met me at the window sill, and a tickelder couple you never • see than we was; but just as I was. try ing to clamber in, the confounded ladder slid, and down it:went, thunder to lick, making noise enough to wake up the whole town. It bit. one of the lower win ders, and knocked it all to smash. I just caught by the tip ends of my fingers on the Winder sill. Suke, seeing M a falling, made a grab for me, and got me by the hair of the head; and 'tween us both, I just made out to stay, but I thought 'twould been as well if I hadn't been there, for I. could neither get in nor get away. Old Baker heard the racket, and out he came, in his shirt, to see what was to pay. He sees me hangin' there, and I suppose the old whelp mistrusted some thing, for be went and got a fish pole, and begun to welt at my limbs, really in earnest. I tell you, Bill, I was in a very harrisin situation. There I was, 'spen ded by the hair—for Suke did the most of the hanging on—and old Baker, as mad as a hoe, jist wallopin' me down with a hickory fish-pole. What was to be did. If Suke and I should let go, I should fall, perhaps, and break my neck. If Silk° and I hung on, old Baker would lick me to giglets with his infernal fish pole. I was never so unpleasantly situ ated in all my life. I would gin two shil lings for lightning enough to strike the old whelp dead; but all the lightning I see was in my eye. I tell ye, Bill, there was some there, or something else; for I could see stars of all kinds and colors, just as thick as splatters. But, thinks I, I can't stand this,by a, jug full, so I took and let go. Suke hung on like a beaver, and saved most half my hair, but down I went. Old Baker want 'specting me quite so soon, and I hit him on the head, and knocked him stiffer than a louse.— I got up and went home, but I felt pooty grouty, I tell you." JOSH. BILLINGS ON A LIVE MAN.—The live man iz like a little pig; he is wean ed young, and begins for to root atrly. Ile is the peper sass of creation—the alspice of the world. The man who can draw Now Orleans molasses in January thru a half inch an ger hole, and sing Nome Sweet Home while the molasses is running, may be strictly honest; but he ain't suddeut enough for this climate. The live roan is as full of bizziness as a conductor of a street car; he is often like a hornet, very bizzy; but about what the Lord only knows. • lie lites up like a cotton factory, and ain't got any more time to spare than a school-boy has Saturday afternoon. lie iz like a decoy duck, always above the water, at least eighteen months du ring the year. He iz like a runaway hoss—he gets he whole of the road. lie trots when be walks:, and only lies clown at night because everybody else duz. The live man is not always a deep thinker, he jumps at conclusions just as the frog duz, and don't always land at the spot he iz looking at. He iz the American pet, a perfektrnis tery to foreigners, but has done more (with charcoal) to work out the great ness of this country than any other man in it. He don't always die rich, but always dies bizzy, and always meets death like an oyster, without any fuss. For the licpublicad Distinction Without Difference. How strange, and yet how true it is that the human race, though created and preserved by the same unseen power, nourished and sustained by the same all-wise Providence, children of a com mon parent, and inhabiting the same earth, should be at once visited by such marked distinctions. Men of all kind reds, and nations, and tongues; men born in the snow-clad regions of the poles, and men reared and matured be neath the scorching blasts of the. inter tropical regions of the equator; men of literature and art, and men of ignorance and want, all considered personally and collectively, present, to every curious observer, a,,striking instance of the fact, that man, though considered with refer ence to oolor, and location, may present aspects qutte dissimilar, yet, in regard to matters affecting men individually, there always was, and, I presume - , ever will be a disposition of humanity to make distinction without difference. Look at different parts of the globe, and what do you behold ? In sections you see man Ming upon his great throne of unlimit ed power, wearing upon his head the royal diadem, and upon his shoulders robes of superiority, and upon his feet the sandals of honor. From his mouth issues forth imperative commands and withering imprecations, and in his hand is found the glittering sword of execu tion. While, on the contrary, his sub jects are compelled to perform the most . menial offices, and tho most servile tasks; yet, in regard to disposition, talents and virtue, and, perhaps, in every other' re spect, as to qualification, frequently the servant might take the 'place of the mas ter. Was man made to rule his fellow man? • Was man placed Upon this Earth to bow the mind of his neighbor, though equal in natural endowment, to shape his actions, to check his passions, and to keep mind, body and soul in complete subjection? Monstrous inconsistency Shocking distinction How is it in our country? With a few modifications and anomilies, America might bear compari son. how often does wealth take the place of character, and lineage usurps the place of honor? low often is the humble man neglected and despised, wi file his rich neighbor is eXalted and honored? How often is wisdom discour aged, and foolishness promoted? It is dangerous to our institutions. Ills per ilous to freedom, while it is the keystone to despotism. We, as American citizens, should, therefore, be • careful to avoid, studiously, everything, social or politi cal, which has a tendency to mark dis tinction without difference. 11. 11. ZION, Pa WO3IEN ASSUMING THEIR PROPER rLi cts.—Women have been making public opinion, while men thought they were only writing love stories. Through even the poorest and most shallow of these, might be traced a womanly protest against thi standard opinion of men, in regard to themselves, and a mental and moral assertion of the individual rights of the sex. They have been deepening in thought, and emancipating themselves from dogmas, and clearly defining their position, while they seemed only tecom plain and lament over undefined injuries, and the sense of something wrong, that was supposed to be native to the sex,and a part of their mental constitution, till men got to saying, "nothing will ever satisfy a woman." This discontent was the most hopeful thing about a woman, and argued a pro test when her discontent should have reached to the dignity of exasperation. It had marred the harmony of her life; it had imparted an indescribable sadness to her pen, and now she has given the world the declaration of her rights. She speaks now, and the world must, and will bear. It eeems to me that arc very blind who refuse to look this matter in the face; and women are more to blame,who have not trained their sons to nobler views, and a better appreciation of what is due to their mothers and sisters. Men complain of our imbecilities, and justly so; but the only remedy is in the success of the very opinions which they treat with contempt. The only antidote to the corruptions and abuses of the world is, in the acknowledgment of the equality of woman, and the conviction, on her part, that ohe ought to earn her own bread honestly, as men must earn theirs,—Elizabeth Oakes Smith, in Pack ard's ,Monthly, fo7 Tune. VENTILATE YOUR CELLAES.—Many a dargerous fever has been caused by the fell air from dark, damp and unventila ted cellars. Confined air, without the purifying influence of sunlight, soon be comes impure and unwholesome. Most cellars serve as a reservoir for this im pure air, which, in addition, is loaded with decomposing organic matters, and foul gases, given off from the masses of decaying vegetables with which they arc stored. The foul air finds its way slow ly and constantly into the upper rooms of the house, there to poison the systems of its occupants. Cellars should be kept as clean and pure as any portion of the house. They also should be well venti lated, which can easily be done by hav ing a flue opening from the cellar into the chimney, and by having one or more openings from the outside to admit the fresh air. Cellars should also be kept dry, as well as clean and well veutila ten. SUBSCRIBE and pay (in advance) for ie lincenLlCAN. VOL, 1, NO. 23. . NINE RIiASONS WoM.uc UITRAG.E.- Miss Francis PoWer.Cobbe, an English writer, gives the following reasons for enfranchising her sex, in a' pamphlet largely circulated in England : 1. Because women fulfill the property qualification on which political rights are based in England: 2. Because the e±clusion of women' entail a moral and intellectual losS to the community at large. 3. Becauie the interests of a non-rep-' resented class are liable to suffer. 4. Because the legislature of Englan'd neglects women and favors men. 5. Because women are taxed and do not share the privileges attached' to that' burden O. Because their legal . disabilities •p]ace women at a serious disadvantage in competing with men in numerous business offices and employments. 7. Because, in consequence of the de.: nial of the suffrage to women, men are led to despise and oppress them and•treat offences against them with levity. 8. Because the denial of the right to' the direct exercise of their judgement has weakening and degrading effect on the minds of women, D. Finally, we desire the franchise for women, because, while believing that men and women have different work to do in life, hold that, in the choice of political representatives, they have the same task to accomplish, namely: The joint selection of a Senate;•which will guard with equal care the rights of both sexes, and which shall embody in its laws that true justice which shall apt prove itself not only to the strong, bu also to the weak: A GOOD linrour.—A humorous young' man was driving a herse;which was in the habit of stopping at every house on the roadside.
