"Call Me whexißienlifast Ready."
The following. song, from that excellent
journal, Hearth and Home, -is applicable to
a large class of young ladies in this vicinity,
for whose especial beriefit we publish :
Call me when breakfast is-ready
-0 mother !don't call me before:
Do not deny me the pleasure
Of moderate rest, I implore.
Eight hours of sleep are too little
- For delicate maidens like me ;
Dearer, by far, is my pillow
Than cup of the daintiest tea.
Mother, I cannot endure it,
This getting up early's a bore—
Call me when breakfast is ready,
Oh ! please do not call-me before.
Call me when breakfast is ready
-0 mother! don't call me too soon.
Shopping; of course, needs 'attention,
. But that can be done before noon.
Talk of the folly of fashion,
- I do not consider it so:
Parties must not be neglected,
And style is important, you know.
Mother! itmakes me so nei - vous
To think of your step at my door:
Call me when breakfast Is ready, •
Oh! please do not call mebefore.
Call me when breakfast is ready
-0 ! don't call me early, I pray.
Doctors advise to be quiet,
My spine A effected. they say.
Sleep is a potent elixir,
And better than drugs or the knife;
Why, then, so much in a hurry,
Since rest is the solace of life?
Mother, do have some compassion,
And chide my late rising no More:
Call me when breakfast is ready,
Oh ! please do not call me before,
Call me when breakfast is ready
-0 mother! I think I've been told,
Multitudes struggle for riches,
And barter their comfort for gold.
Hypocrites often rise early—
Their motives are perfectly plain:
Sundays they always sleep later,
Because they have nothing to gain
Mother ! I cannot endure it,
This getting up early's a bore—
Call me when breakfast is ready-,
But please do not call me before.
A Half Hour with the Children—
Over the grasses and ilaisies
Comei little Dump-14y May, ,
Wishing I know ior frolic—
Coining :vrith sister to play !
Driving the bee from. the clover,
Chasing the butterfly gay,
Sweeter than June's blushing roses,
Dear little Dump-i-ty May!
Blackborry,
ElderberrY, -
A liming little earth-angel,
Filling each heart with delight,
Sheding around us a halo,
Making each moment so bright!

She's naught but is charming and lovely,

There is then your habitual laughers,

and patronize free and easies. They will
meet you with a grin on their countenance,
which, before you have said three sentences,
will resolve itself Into• a simper, and ter
minate finally in a stentorian laugh. These
men may be truly said to go - thirough life
laughing; but habit has blunted the finger
edges of -their sympathies, and their mirth
is.but the unmeaning_ effusion of a weak
spirit.• These personages generally go off
in fits of uppoplexy, -brought on by exces

"NO ENTERTAINMENT SO CHEAP AS READING,: NOR ANY IMEABITRE SO LASTING."
Stolen by Indians—A Illan Returns
After Thirty-three Years.
Thirty-three years ago, 'there lived in
Lewiston, Logan county, Obicqa farmer by'
the native of Harris Hopkins, who bad ahoy
•between three and four years of , ago. Ono
day while the father was at work in the
field, some distance from the 'farm
. house, the boy started from 'the house,
across the field, to see his father. The last
seen of the little fellow was when•he left
the house. Hundreds and thousands of
people turned out to search for the . lost
child.. The river was dragged,• the woods,
searched, rewards offered, but all tone pur-;
pose. Alter days of weary and anxious
search, the little fellow was given up by the
parents and sympathizing 'friends. The
few Indians living in the neighborhood,,
were friendly and peaceable, and no suspi
cion ever attached to them, and like all
even stranger circumstances, the affair was
forgotten or only talked of as a mysterious
disappearance.
The Hopkins family at length left their
old-borne and settled in Illinois,,and up to
ten days ago, none of their old niglibors in
Logan county had expected to see any
member of the family again. The astonish
ment of the old settlers in and about the
neighborhood,
.can be conceived, when,
week before last, a tall man, browned by
exposure to sun and storm, and speaking
the broken English of the half-civilized In
dians, made his appearance at Lewiston,
and claimed to be the child missed thirty
three years ago. He stated that a Cherokee
Indian, wandering through that section,
had enticed him from the field as he was
going in search of his father, and bad car
ried him to the far West. The old chief has
treated him as his own son, and having
been taken away at so young an age, the
memory of his parents and former life bad
faded from his mind. For thirty odd
years, be had lived as au Indian, and sup
posed that he was the son of the old chief,
who claimed to be his father.
A few months .since the old chief, then
high in rank in the Cherokee nation, and
very advanced in age, found hiniself upon
his death-bed. Shortly,before he died, and
when he knew that recovery was hopeless,
he called his adopted son to his bedside,
and informed bim who and what he was.
As soon as the old chief was dead and
buried, Hopkins came.to Logan county in
search of his parents, whom ho. found had
moved to Campaign City, Illinois. He,
however, remained during last week at
Lewiston, to gratify the curiosity of the old
settlers, who had aided in the search for
him thirty-three years ago. His reappear
ance has created as much excitement in
Logan county as did his sudden and mys
terious disappearance a third of a century
ago. The joy of his parents when he is re
stored to them, can only be imagined, but
never appreciated, savo by those who have
been similarly afflicted and similarly re
joiced.—Sandusky Register.
A Wedding Party. Dispersed.
An event occurred near one of our city
churches on Sunday, says the Albany
Knie7cerbocker, which, although public, has
been kept very quiet. It appears that the•
daughter of a well known lady, living on
Broadway, had been keeping company with
- a popularyonugsrocerym an. The old lady

daughterLlStn';:aScefating with' tlid'yOoni
.Man.. But the'yoniii lady's'affectionsWere
centered In the - grocery keeper, mid all at
tempts to dislodge that love or dissuade her
from her purpose were as naught. The old
lady soon became convinced of this litct,and
determined to prevent any intercourse be
tween her daughter and her lover by force
and Violence, if not otherwise. For a while
she succeeded in her object. The parties
were plighted for marriage In November
next, but the girl urged a change of the
day, and named Sunday last. She thought
"the sooner the better," and believed by
this means she could deceive the old lady.
The bridegroom had cards printed,aunounc
ing the proposed marriage, and for the par:
pose of inviting a few friends - to be present.
The daughter indiscreetly allowed one of
them to lay around loose, and it, fell into
the mother's hands. The parent - became
greatly excited. She prepared for the emer
gency. The daughter left her• home on
Sunday afternoon, met her lover and friends
at the house of an acquaintance, and at once
proceeded toward the church to bo made
one. As they neared the edifice they were
met by the, infuriated mother, who stepPed
before the wedding party, forbade the nap
tials to go on t assailed the bridegroom in the
most ruthless manner, and by her conduct
dispersed the happy gathering as effectually
as
. w bomb-shell would a crowd in An
enemy's camp'. The party and wedding
were effectually broh . en up, and the mother
carried the daughter home In triumph.
A. Remarkable Story.
The Concord; (N. H.) Patriot narrates a
romance of real 'life, 'the main facts of
which "are worthy of being described. The
Rev. T. 13: Eastman was born in Ooncord
in 1813. His father, Samuel, was appren
ticed to a blacksmith, and his indenture did
not expire till two years atter his marriage,
by which" time ho bad two children and
was largely in debt. When the Rev. Mr.
E. was six, years of age his father left for
Massachusetts, ostensibly to obtain work,
but really to escape his creditors. He went
On a fishing voyage, and his family, soon
after, left Concord. Writing several times
after his retain from sea, and learning noth
ing, both parties gave up the other aS lost.
The childrOb • grew up•and had families of
their own. One son was lost in Mexico, the
eldest became a clergymen and the daugh
ter married. So things went on till a few
weeks ago, when' the Rev. Mr. Eastman
called on a lady of his acquaintance, who
incidentally mentioned haying met with
his father's second family, some nine weeks
since. 7 1Inding her Much better posted in
his own family affairs than he was himself,
he wrote to the postmaster of a certain town,
and 'ascertained 'beyond doubt that his
father was living- there. The clergyman
proceeded' to]."the place in question, and in
troduced Admself to his parent, who was
overwhelmed' at:the intelligence from those
who, for half- a century, had been to him as
dead.: Thek'Old 'Man, overjoyed, took his
eldest born home, and presented him to the
"second" fatnily, for he had married again,
and had four children of their own. The
second wife was dead, and the old man, now
seventy-six years old, finds his first wife,
whom he left a blootiting young woman, au
old lady : of seventy-nine. The family is
again united and the father will soon be in
Concord.'
M.i.s.rEtz 'EfAi.tontr, ' the son of the Rev.
Mr. HaHonk, who was liurned to death at
the Mast Eiope disaster, on the Erie Rail
road, has been appointed a messenger in
the Treasury Department.
The "National Capital Convention" will
meet in St. Louis on October 20th. Its ob
ject will be to adopt measures looking to
the removal of the national capital West.

Alfred'ls Beautiful Dream.
had a strange and beautiful "dream:'
vision' of sumo place, such es I never saw
with waking eyes, camnbeforo me. There
was alandscape•of great extent and incom
parable !beauty: I have no , 'words 'with
which to describe it. ,Therewere hills and
valleys covered with the most luxuriant
vegetation. All descriptions , of tropical
abundance are barren compared with' it.
Every kind of delicious fruit hung in ripe
and rich clusters. The surpassing' beauty
and endless variety of the flowers nt once
charmed and astonished me. In the centre
of the vast territory there was a magnificent
river, whose water was perfectly transpa
rent; and passed with peaceful majesty over
a bed of golden sand, which I saw distinct
ly. Along the banks of the river grew

Straightening' a Grecian Bend.
A Cincinnati biped named Frederick Bey,
has discovered a new process for relieving
females who are afflicted with the Grecian
Bend. Last Saturday night be essayed to
escort his sweetheart from a ball at Lafay
ette Hall to her domicile. Her name is
Mary Hiuc, and we are sorry to say that
Maryfias fallen in with-the prevailing cus
tom, and-affects the customs of the Greeks
to an aggravated degree.
Her lover, who is opposed to this kind of
thing, remonstrated with her as they walk
edliome together, but Mary was wedded to
her idol, and she told Frederick that if he
didn't like her bend ho might straighten
her out or ,transfer his affection to some
other girl. Frederick concluded to straight
en her out, and consequently struck her a
blow under the ear.which bad the desired
effect.
He straightened her, and completely ob
literated all traces of the obnoxious bend.
For this Mary had him arrested, and an un
progressive and illiberal police court judge
lined him five dollars, at the same time ad
monishing him not to attempt his peculiar
process again.
Singular Circumstance.
A few days ago Mr. Geo. Prentice, of this
town, went out into a field to mow, taking
with him ono of his children, a boy about
four fears- old. The little fellow was left
sitting ,on the ground playing,' while the

in a cringing manner.
Fearing that the child had been stunk,
Mr% Prentice commenced examining hint,
the screams continuing, but finding noth
ing after a partial search, he took him hi his
arms and carried him to the house, where
a more thorough search was commenced.
Upon removing the clothing from the up
per part of the child's body, a snake drop
ped therefrom to the floor.
It was a long and very slim black snake
of the "racer" species, and it is snpposed
that it: had tightly coiled itself around the
body of the child, thereby eaushig him pain,
a habit which is generally ascribed to the
racer ' snakes. It was fortunate that the
child was not alone, as in that event it
would probably soon have been strangled

On the day that he sailed front Genoa to

old servant, understand his last wishes.
The servant asked whether he should bring
pen and paper to take down his words.
"Oh, !" he said, "it is now nearly over.
Go to my sister; tell her. Go to Lady By
ron; yon will see her, and say"—his voice
faltered, and he continued to mutter to him

earnestness, concluding, "Now I have told_
you all." "My lord," said Fletcher, "I

a pity. Then it is too late ; all is over." "I

Ho was most unhappy in his choice of a

ceive the injury that ho indicted upon Lord
•Byron in giving him a Axed habitation to
his changing fancies of anger and remorse
without repentance, or the danger which,
in the very whirlwind of his passion, he
had always avoided, by enforcing Lady
Byron to break silence. If Sir Walter Scott,
who Was emphatically man, could have un
dertaken the task, he would not have called
on his friend to tell from the grave, with a
joyous voice, the foul sensuality of Venice;
he would not have collected darts, which
lay scattered abroad and harmless, to pierce
a woman's heart. Such were not the mas
sacres which the husband, if God bad given
him utterance, would have sent from his
death-t4d. It is difficult to believe that
Moore had not personal resentment against

how the utmost degree of resentment could
persuade any man to insult a woman so

Care of the Watch..
1. Do not make a toy of it for yourself or
the children. Never open it except for nec
essary purposes.
• 2. It should be regulated to about mean
temperature, and always kept as near the
same temperature as possible.
3. It should not be allowed to stop.. Bet
ter that it should be kept running all the
time.
4. Keep it in as uniform a position as pos
sililg y - If in the pocket, better that the pee,
ceo , ;zin,ThiKtiKig4iSW;V:k ., ti: 4 4ki4A:44 4 - E,
5. Oat of the pocket,- if it bang , on the,ivall;
et it be ou some soft surface. Never allow
it to lie on bare marble or other hard,sur
face. If it lie on any surface, let It be with
face up and pendent ring turned under, so
as to keep the upper part most elevated.
6, Let your key fit exactly, and be kept
perfectly clear. By the former you may
save breaking chains, mainsprings, ratch
ets, clicks, dc. ; by the latter, prevent in
troducing much dust.
7. Wind,i Gpossi hie, at the same hour each
day.
S, While winding, hold your watch stead-
ily in your left hand, Turn only your key,
and that firmly, evenly, avoiding all quick
motions or jerks.
0. Set your watch with a key ; never turn
the hands by any other way. You may
turn the hands either way without danger,
if they do not move very hard.
10. On regulating a watch, should it be
going too fast, move the regulator a trifle
toward the "slow," and if going slow, do
the reverse; you cannot move the regulator
too gently at a time, and the only inconve
nience that can arise is, that you may have
to perform that duty more than once.
11. Take note that your watch, even if a
good one, will sometimes be guilty of " ir
regularities" in consequonee of change of
temperature, from the effects of which none
but a chronometer is exempt; also from the
jerks and jars of travel.
12. If you find any difficulty which you
do not understand, go at once to a good
watchmaker. Rendo's Watch-Repairer's

Paper Petticoats.
An exchange says the uses to which pa
per can be put seem to be in no way ex
hausted yet. Paper collars have become a
great fact of the nineteenth century, but
what will ladies say to paper petticoats?
These have been produced with great suc
cess, and will rival in every way the snow
white and elaborately ornate garments poor
male mortals are accustomed to look upon
with fear and reverence. We have all heard
of the artist who used to make caricatures
of his- friends upon his shirt collars, and
the author who inscribed an epic upon a
couple of dozen of the same useful article of
attire. Thus we see a field of groat useful
ness for the petticoat for the future. Young
ladies can make sketches from nature on
their own petticoats. Every damsel her
own sketch-book will be their motto. Poets
can inscribe sonnets to their mistress'
ankles around the hem of her petticoats.
Mothers can have fairy tales, alphabets, and
small scholastic works inscribed on their
garments, and so instruct their children as
they walk about with them. Fancy the
announcement,. " Madame Percale bogs

Another Shooting Lover•

An affair of this kind took place recently at
Minneapolis, in 'Minnesota. A young lady
of very prepossessing appearance, named-
Alice Ferguson, who_ had been engaged at
sewing at the Xicollet)louse, had uncoil

coldness and indifference of the YoUng lady
drOve him almost frantic. His attention
amounted to persecutiOn, and greatly an
noyed the young lady, who is not only very
beau tiful,hut as good as she is lovely. She"
bad reasoned again and again-with her. un
reasonable admirer, until her patience was
about exhausted. On Thursday evening lie
again forced himself into her room at the
Nicollet House where she sat sewing, and
again urged his suit. Again he was refused,
when,finding persuasive words of no effect,
he resorted to threats, and drawing a revol
ver hp . 'told her she could have her choice,
either marry him or.oie. Seriously alarm
ed, but not intimidated,she persisted in her
refusal, when he fired, the ball taking ef
fect in her hand and arm, which she had
thrown up as a protection. This probably
saved her life, as he had aimed at her head,
and but for the ball striking the hone of her
arm, and being thus turned aside, she .
would have been killed instantly. Imme
diately upon tiring, the cowardly wretch
fled, and up to our latest accounts had not
been - arrested; although strong hopes were
entertained of his arrest yesterday. Tho
young lady's arm is badly shattered, and
may have to be amputated. The feeling in

WHEN To Our TIMBER.—We have annu
ally published articles on the best time for
cutting timber, and. still those who aro ob
servant in this matter are giving their ad
vice. What is singoltir is the very general
agreement of all the wise men on this snbject.
Tne time now agreed upon, almost if not
quite universally, is between the 15th. of
August and the 15th day of September.,
Timbei cut during thiS time will not be
troubled with worms, and"hickory will
make good rails. Timber 'is generally cut
in the winter, because farmers have more
leisure time and chopping is good exercise
for cold weather. It can be cut at the right
time and' worked up during winter. The
labor of merely felling the trees is not very
great. One tree cut during the next month
from this time will be, worth three cut in
the winter. So says a writer in the Rural
World, copied into the Rural New Yorker.
