HARRISBURG, PA.,
'RESPECTFULLY inform the citizens of Her
thburg, Reading, Lancaster, Lebanon, and
- their vicinities, that we aro prepared to put on
roofs on most liberal terms, and at the shortest
notice,
We respectfully call the attention of persons a
bout to build, to our invaluable method of roofing,
- now much used throughout the principal cities of
the United States and their vicinities. This mode
..of rooting having all the combined requisites of
cheapness, Durability, and Security against Fire
and Water, and dispensing with high gable walls;
the roofs require an inclination tf not ms e than
three-quartors (i) of an inch to the Mot, And in
untny cases-saving the entire cost of rafters—the
ceiling joist being used.
The gutters are made of the sane material,
without any extra charges ; eousequetly, our
roofs are put up at aluiust half the cost of either
Tin, Slate, or Shingles. The material being of
an imperishable nature, it surpasses all others in
Durability ;—besides, in case of any casualty, it
is the most easily repitired of any other roof now
iu use. Yet, the best proof we can offer as to its
being both fire and water proof, are our many re
ferences, to any one of whom we are at liberty
to refer.
N. 13.—But let it be distinctly understood,
(since we manufacture oar own composition, end
do the work in persond that we warrant all our
work proof against both Fire and Water ; if they
prove contrary, we will . most willingly abide the
results,
The materials being mostly ',non-condueters of
hent, , no roof is so cool in summer, or so warm in
winter, Those wishing to. use our roof shOuld
give the rafters a pitch of ebStxt.ona inch to the

The red rose bloorueth on her cheek,
The modest violet in her face,
The one doth of her beauty speak,
The other telleth of her grace.
The one an index to her health,
The other to her heart (rich pearl !)
But speaketh clear the priceless wealth y
And sweetness cf the Country Girl.
There's happy joy within her words,.
And music in her merry song,
Which like the warbling of the birds.
Alone to woodland wilds belong,
No plaintive lay of bird confined,
Amidst the city's dizzy:whirl,
Or saddened note was o'er designed
As music for the Country Girl.
She wears no gay, attire, 'tie true,
Or gaudy trappings bought with pelf,
No proclaim stones of emerald hue;
But then shois a gem herself,
A princely gem more rich by far,
Than that possessed by Court or Dul—
-1 A beauteous, bright and shining star
Of virtue, is the Country Girl.

quite up to fashion, and it, is Well we are not, fur
we could not afford it if we were. Ah Yard.
stick, you are a lucky dog—hero we are, about
fifty years old, each of us, and—"
"Good gracious! Ilevhandle. Why, what can
you mean ? Wby, lam but forty, or say a trifle
over, and quite young looking—so they say—at
that."
"Ila ! hal ha! Yardstick, it wou't dm Still
playing the beau, I see, but no matter. As I was
saying, here we are. You are a rich merchant,
never did any work in your life, and I, a poor
farmer, Work hard all my days; boys together—
started on nothing—everything in luck, every
thing in luck."
"Well, well, Hoohandle, you era a modest man,
I won't yet go into an argument with you on our
comparative positions in the world; that is, I
will get through another matter first. I want a,
thousand dollars for thirty days, if you bare it
over."
"Have it over!
"I mean, friend Iloehandle, that if you are not
short, , l should like to—the fact is, I am out on
expedition, and must raise some mon
-03 !"
"Ah I I see, bare it over—short—shining—
means that you want to borrow, and that I must
lend you—all right,"iir. I Emig it;
and Yardstick, I am proud to be able to lend to
you. Want a thousand?—wall, hold, hold, let
us go through this matter now, before my good
wife comes .is—these women always want to
know nil that's going on, and she will inquire. if 1
I am indebted to you. Ha! ha ! she would ho
astonished if John Ifoebandle should owe a man
a. thousand dollars—hille I don't sigh so man—
what's the matter? Pay Tape, Yardetickt,,,k Co.
There you are, sir, hero is the check."
"Thank you, Iluehandle, here is our note; bad
it ready before I loft home—knew you would
oblige me."
"As I was observing, Yardstick, you merchants
have an easy time of it. Go to Philadelphia, buy
your stock, sell eta profit, buy again, sell again, I
roll up your thousands in a few years; and poor
John Ifeehandle works like.a slave six months
out of twelve, up in the morning at daylight, and
works at least four hours before dinner, and some
times two after dinner, and in harvest time from
sunrise to sunset. Yes sir, it is a fact, and what
have we got to show fur it? What have I got to
show for it? Why, after thirty years of toil, I
have only this farm of three hundred acres, worth
perhaps thirty dollars an acre, and perhaps a lit
tle bank stock, purchased with its profits." -
"And pray, my good friend, what have yot
averaged per year, clear profits, over all expens
es, for all this terrible labor for thirty years ?"
"Not over a thousand dollars a year, Yard
stick, while you make ten."
"Let me see, farm worth nine thousand—thir
ty years' profit thirty-nine thousand, and a large
yearly income beside; poor fellow—you arc to
be pitied."
"I know it, I know it- 7 01-in luck, all iu luck.
Aim ! if I had only been a merchant."
"Let me ask, Hoehandle, your products are all
sold for cash down, I believe. Never credit out,
do you ?"
"Credit? what, credit grain, wheat ? Credit
my wool? Credit my live stock? Excuse me,
ha ! ha! You do not know what farming is, I
see. 0, no sir, our produce is cash. All we raise
is cash at the door. Why, I am plagued to dead]
by produce buyers, and purchasers of live stock,
wool buyers, and all the rest of them, who will
gladly advance me eighty per cent. on my pro
duce here, and pay the other twenty in thirty
days. Credit! I de not know the word, sir. I
don't use it. hut, Yardstick, they tell me you
are getting rich."
"Hoehandle, how will you exchange property
with me unsight, unseen, as the boys say; you
know how—how I stand, do you, Hoehandle ?"
Stand ? yes sir; why the firm of Tape, Yard
stick & Co., are good fur fifty thousand at any
moment. They say that you sold that amount

Perhaps the above may be a fair specimen of
the groundlessness of discontent, and its preva
lence among all classes.
This false view of others extends through all
classes of society, very often leading the young
especially, into pursuits for which they are not;
and never can be fitted. The farmer's ormechan
ic's son wishes be was clerk, or a student at law
or of medicine_ the student and clerk think they
are too much confined, and frequently wish they
were in the place of the farmer's son. The law
yer thinks the editor is making money, and the
editor thinks the lawyer is. The farmer's wife
thinks the wife of merchant or of the profession
al man look upon the farmer's wife as mistress of
creation. The girl that works at housework
wishes that she was a milliner, or a teiloress,au d
the milliner and tailoress wish they were school
teachers, and the school teacher thinks she is a
perfect slave, and longs fur souls other situation.
Thus the world Sets as if it were all out of plane,
because each person forms a false estimate of the
happiness of others. And as we said in the start,
a large share of uneasiness and fault-finding of
the world is occasioned by trusting in appear-
OM
In the above case, the farmer and the merchant
found fault with their own situations, because
each had been led into error in relation to the
other. Be content with your let, and don't judge
from appearances.
A REMARKABLE WOMAN
Several very interesting incidents are related of
Mrs. Esther Harris, the wife of John Harris, the
first settler on the site of Harrisburg, Pa., which
proves her to have possessed remarkable courage
and determination. The following we find in
Rupp's History of Dauphin county:
''The Mansion Hotnie, situated on the river
bank, was surrounded by a stockade for security
against the Indians. An English officer was ono
night at the house, when ty accident, the gate of
the stockade was left unfastened. The officer,
clothed in his regimentals, was seated with Mr.
Harris and his wife at the table. An Indian en
tered the gate of the stockade and thrust his rifle
through one of the port holes of the house, and it
is supposed, pointed it at the officer. The night
being damp, the gun simply flashed. Instantly
Mrs. Harris blew out the candle, to prevent the
Indian aiming a second time, and he retreated.
"It has been observed that John Harris kept
articles for trade with the Indians. At one peri
od Mrs. Harris had an Irish girl in her employ.
On one occas:on she was sent up stairs for some
purpose, and she took with her a piece of lighted
candle without a candlestick. The girl coon
came down without the candle, and on Mrs. 11.
asking what she bad done with it, she said she
had stuck it into the barrel of jia.raped. This
however, happened to ho a barrel of powder.—
Mrs. Harris instantly rose, and withoutsaying a
word for fear of alarming the girl, went up stairs,
and advancing to the barrel, cautiously placed
her hands under the candle and lifted it out and
then cooly reproved the girl for her carelessness.
These occurrences proved her to have been well
fitted for the wife of a pioneer."
CONNHCTICOT MOSQUITOES.—Bemus, a spruce
young man from the City, was riding out into the
country a few days since, with his "gal l " and as
the sun was hot he stopped under the shade of a
tree to let his horses breath. The "skaters" were
very thick and large, and Demur, thinking to
have a little fun, called out to a farmer at work in
the field; "Halloo, sir; what do you feed your
mosquitoes on ?" "We feed 'em on little city fel
lers and hosses." Berens whipped up. Fact.
ila‘ a . h ave very little respect for the ties of
lrls world, as the chap said when the rope was
put around hie nook:
DOESTICKS OI LAGER BEER
Doesticks has beau trying to ascertain hy'ex-,
perimont win:Aber or not Lager is intoxicating,
and below is given, in his own language, the-re
sult:—
"The first glass seemed like sour strong beer
with a good deal of water la it; the next was not
quite so sour, and the noxt'One tasted as though
the original beer had been stronger and they id
not dilute it so much. Then we rested, and as I
had drank three pints already,- I was willing to
quit, but Damphool assured me 'Lager isn'tlin'-
toxieating,' so, after a little settling down I . 1110
r could hold another girMs Mid ordered it; it was
brotty,bt hp a Young" lady who seemed to have feti ,
eyes and two noses pointing in' different direc
tions, which unusual effect Was undoubtedly
caused by smoke.
"Then I thought I'd have a glass of Lager (a
liquid knoWn to most of the inhabitants of Man
hatten-.). It was brought by a girl' so pretty that!
I immediately ordered two more, tad kept her
Waiting for the change 'each tinMso LeOuld look
ttt her--- , :theit 'We bad sine eVegli full 'de holes;
then the took seine Lager to fill up the holes
aad then we took a sausage ; Damphool suggest:
ml that the sausage was made of dog, so we had
some 'Lager . to drown the dog; then we had
some sardines; Damphool said it would be cruel
to keep the fishes without a supply i of theliquid
element, so we had some Lager for the fishes to
swim in; ,thonwe had some bretzels Damphool
said the bretzels vere salty and so crooked that
they would not pack close,so we had some Lager
to fill up the chinks; then I made a speech to the
company; short but to the point, and received
w ith, app was addressed to the whole
crowd and was to this effect— 'Gentlemen, let's
hero some Lager
By tliis time my friend had by sotne mysteri
ous process become mysteriously multiplied, and
there were fifty Damphools, and they all accept
ed the invitation, and we had the Lager, there
were forty glasses, andin trying to make the eir;
cult of the room and touch my glass to every one
of theirs I foil over a. table which very imperti
nently stepped before me, and as I went down I
knocked a small Dutchman -into the corner, then
I partially recovered myself and sat on his bead,
then I got up and stepped on his stomach, then
demanded an instant apology, then I called for
six glasses of Lager, and the girl brought them
nil in one band. I tried to take them all in one
hand, but broke three, then I tried to drink out
of the remaining three:all at once, and in SO do-
Mg I took an involuntary shower-bath, then I
tried to pay - for the whole fifty, - glasses - and the
damage -with a dime ind7a Spanish quarter, and
demanded that-he should give my charge in gold
dollars, there seemed to be some difficulty about
this, and if I hadn't known that Lager isn't in
toxicating I should have thenght the man was
drunk."
A TEA PARTY AMONG THE
ALPHABET
BY A SC/IGGL GIRL
The dining-room fire crackled, merrily and east
strange shadows on the ceiling, as the day faded
into twilight. Little Mary en thy the fire-side and
in the flickering light was forming her letters on
her new slate.
As the shadows deepeuded, n drowainess stole
over her senses—she forgot fora moment her vain
attempts to form the mysterious shapes, and pre
sently there was a confused manner in her ears—
a hum of voices in the room, and a swimming of
familiar objects before her eyes. The slate seem
ed to be dancing a jig and the letter took the form
of people entering,'the open door. -
The first seven which entered formed a very mu
sical party ; they were exclusive, and bad a right
to be so, for there could be he music anywhere
without their presence.
Miss H. came next—a very conceited individ
ual, probably from her foreign associations, par
tiaularly with her friends in England. They
were fickle friends however, for though they al
ways introduced her where she ought not to be,
they invariably left lice out where her presence
was most required. Sho was not remarkable for
her beauty; as for her figure, it reminded
one of a pillow, with a string Sled around the
Tho twin brothers I and J. were seen together,
and the only difference that Mary could discern
between them was, that J. was steadfastly resolv
ed on turning up his toes, whilst I's *ere renial
kably straight. The conversation of the latter
was exceedingly egotistical, and in conduct ho
was sure to keep7al . sharp look-out for number
K and L were awkward school girls. M and
N were evidently members of the seine thmily, and
kept near together. Mrs. 0 mattonized her two
daughters P and Q. The good lady was a perfect
apple dumpling us to form. She always had her
mouth wide open with astonishment, abd was con
stantly obliged to Mind her P's and Q's. Miss Q
resembled her mother in a remarkable degree,
but being a specimen of feminine Young Ameri
ca, she insisted on wearing a very long train.—
Mrs. 0 expressed her fears that her daughter P
was not long for this world ; and it seemed very
probable, for her head was so much too huge in
proportion to her body that it seemed in actual
danger or tumbling off. The graceful Miss R,
who was greatly admired by the French, and the
serpent-like Mr. S next appeared. The latter
gentleman showed his peculitirities of character
by biasing every opinion he disapproved.
Lastly the lean Mr. T brought up the rear, and
then they all sat down to supper, forming an un
commonly literary party, for they seemed to have
sotm_thing to do with all the books in tit; world.
Some of their associates however, who had not
yet arrived, came with all due ceremony after tea.
U, V and 1V were seen together. Poor IV looked
rather woo-begone ; ho was quite neglected, and
as for his French acquaintances, they cut him en
tirely. Then came the fashionable Miss X. It
was easy to see that this young lady was very
cross in her disposition, and her •waist was ml
EMIIII it was really painful to look at. Her at
tendant Mr. Y manifested the same peculiarly.
Old Mr. Z then walked in quite alone in his
glory. He was a very eccentric individual, and
amused the company by the queer feats ho per
formed with his long arms. Soon they all rose;
The musical party began to sing, the others to
dance, and such a noise and confusion followed
that Mary started, rubbed her oyes and awoke.—
There was her slate upon her lap, with the letters
traced upon it in black and white, as if nothing
had happened. Acteally she must have been
dreaming.
, 1 01 — The greatest taskmaster we know of is a
blacksmith, who says every evening to his ap
prey] tie es—
" Come, boys; let us leave off work and go to
sawing wood."
That blacksmith must be a brother to a farmer
down east, who, ono season, whoa ho was build
ing a now house, usod to try and got his hired men
out-with-him to - play dig cellar by-moonlight.

I met this loved one, as I said before, long years
ago, in one of the sweetest and euuu lest vales of
our broad Illinois ; wandered with her, hand in
hand, for years, beside the sparkling waters of toy
childhood's ho:ne, First by her smile of exquis
ite sweetness, she loved me with unutterable fond
ness; and never have I doubted—my trust in her
has ever been steadfast and fearless—never has
her eye looked coldly upon use, and never will it,
till the death angel shall dim them fur the long
sleep. Oft in the still hours of night have I been
awakened, as:if by the sleep God's wing, and be
held that fhee, those eyes gazing upon me with
all the beatific tenderness of a guardian angel
over a repentant prodigal ; and a kiss would tall
upon mjt brow more soothing thair the dews of
heaven.
The same gentle band bas led me along life's
flowery way, end beside its unruffled waters; and
if ever my arm was raised to do a diced of wrong,
or my heart steeled to conceive it, that gentle
ministory voice came wispering in my ear and
stayed the one midway, and drew the iron from
the other. And Ido remember, in my man
