TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE?
There Is a habit which boys leach each other at the
Academy or College—a habit indulged in when hy him
self, in solitude, growing up with the boy to manhood;
few of those who indulge in this pernicious practice are
aware of the consequences until they find the nervous
system shattered, feel strange and unaccountable feel
ings, vague fears in the mind. The individual becomes
feeble, he is unable to labor with accustomed vigor, or
to apply his mind to study % hi* step Is lardy and weak,
he Is dull irresolute.
Persons of ail ag's can now Judge what is the cause of
their declining healtii, losing llieir vigor, becoming weak,

UlßliE FOR A YOI NG GIRL.
T'nderneath the sod low lying,
• Dark and drear,
Bieepeth one, who left, in dying.
Sorrow here.
Yes, they're ever bending o'er her,
EyeS that weep;
Forms, that to the cold grave bore her
Vigils keep.
When the summer moon is shining
Soft and fair,
Friends she loved in tears are twining
Chaplets there.
Rest in peace, thou gentle spirit
Throned above;
Souls like thine with God inherit
Life and love !
"A VALENTINE."
"She that is fair, though never vain or proud,
More fond of home than fashion's changing
crowd;
Whose taste refined e'en female friends admire,
Dressed not for show, but robed in neat at
tire;
She who has learned, with mild forgiving
breast,
To pardon frailties, hidden or confessed;
True to herself, yet willing to submit,
More swayed by lore, than ruied by worldly
wit;
Though young, discreet—though ready, ne'er
unkind,
Blessed with no pedants, but a Jfonum'smind;—
| She wins our hearts, towards her our thoughts
incline,
; So at her door so leave my valentine."

A CULNTJIY Y, LADING.
The Preacher was prevented from talc
ing his part in the ceremony, and a uewly
created Justice of the Pea< e, who chanced
to he present, was called upon to officiate
in his place. The good man's knees be
gan to tremble, for tie had never tied the
knot, and did not know where to begin.
He had no 1 Georgia Justice.' or any other
b'>ok from which to tead the marriage
service. The company was arranged in
a semi-circle, each one hearing a tallow
candle. He thought over every thing he
had ever learned, but all in vain ; he could
recollect nothing that suited the occasion.
A suppressed titter all over the room ad
monished him tliat he must proceed with
something, and in an igony of desperation
he began—
' Know all men by these presents that
I'—here he paused, and looked up to the
ceiling, while a voice in a corner of the
room was heard to sav—
-1 Ho is drawing a deed for a tract of
land;' and they alt laughed.
' In the name of God, amen !' he begsrf
again, only to hear another voice in a loud
w hisppr say—-
• He is making his will ; I thought he
couldn't live long, he looks so powerfully
bad.'
4 Oh, yes! oh, yes!' continued the
Squire.
A voice replied, 4 Oh, no ! oh, no ! don't
let's,'
Some person out of doors sung cut,
4 Come into court!' and tha laughter was
general.
The bride was near fainting ;thfc Squire
was not far I font it. Being an indefati
gable man, however, he began again :
4 To all and singular, the sher '
4 Let's run; he's going to levy on us,'
said two or three at once.
Here a gleam of light flushed across the
face of the Squire. He Ordered the bride
and groom to hold up thtvr hands and in a
solemn voice said :
4 \ou and each of you, do solemnly
swear in the presence of the present com
pany, that you w ill perform towards each
other all and singular the functions of hus
band and wile, HS the case may be, to the
best of your knowledge and ability, so
help you God.'
4 Good as wheat !' exclaimed the father
of the bride.'
WHAT IS A DEFATLTKR? —Loco Foco
isrn sets a new definition on this word.
Den by is no defaulter, we are told, though
the Government is SI 55.000 out of pock
et by him. CollinsofCiucinnati bas'nt paid
up yet but he is no defaulter ! It will ba
remembered that a NY ashington correspon
dent of the Boston Atlas stated that Kx-
Governor Hill; of N. H., was likely to turn
out a defaulting pension agent. The N.
11. Pa'riot 'undertakes to say that Gover
nor Hill is not a defaulter—that he has
not 'failed to account for public inonev en
trusted to h;s care. It may be that tho
government will contend that there is a
balance due from htm ; but lie accounts for
that balance, and insists that he is fairly
and equitably entitled to it; and he is
ready to submit the matter to the decision
of a court andjury. I. 4 they decide that he
owes the government any thing, he ta
able to pay the same. Therefore wo sav
thi.t he is in uu sense a defaulter, fur the
government has suffered and can suffer no
loss by him ; he is ready to pay overeverv
dollar that is legally and equitably due
from him.'
May be / Holds baric, but is aide to
pay ? Tire common language of all de
faulters.
