There is a habit whi<h boys teach each other at the

aware of the consequences until they find the nervous

The Las! Rose of Summer.
! Tis the last rose of Summer,
Left blooming alone ;
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone.
No flower of her kindred,
No rose-bud is nigh,
To reflect back her blushes,
Or give sigh for sigh.
I'll not leave thee, thou lone one!
To pine on the stem ;
Since the lovely are sleeping,
Go sleep thou with them ,
Thus kindly 1 scatter
Thy leaves o'er the bed,
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead.
So, soon may I follow,
V\ hen friendships decay,
And from love's shining circle
The gerns drop away!
When true hearts lie withered,
And fond ones have flown ;
Oh who could inhabit
This bleak world alone 5
tsccilan to us.
COM. HULL—GEN. TAYLOR.
In an article on the subject of ' Manner?
and Speech-making,' the Washington Re
public relates the incident quoted below :
Some of the Opposition journals find it
1 rare sport to criticise Gen. Taylor's
speeches and ridicule his manners. They
say that he is awkward before strangers,
and does not make a favorable impression.
On this point there may well he a differ
ence of opinion. Surely enough, he has
not the manners of a dancing master,-but
it has been well said that he gave a recep
tion to twenty thousand strangers at Bu
ena \ ista in a style that few dancing-mas
ters could have equalled.
As to his speech-making, the people
knew very well what kind of speeches
General Taylor made before they elected
him President. Heaven has bestowed
divers gifts on divers person#. It was not
necessary for General Taylor to make
long speeches, in order to gain the popular
confidence ; and that confidence will not
bo withdrawn because he fails to make
long speeches.
When the chivalrous Hull broke the
spell of England's supremacy on the ocean,
by the capture of the Guerriere, on his re
turn to port he was complimented by the
citizens of Boston with a public dinner.
The cloth being removed, after a few
preliminary toasts came that to the honor
of the captain : 1 Our gallant guest , who
has secured for himself a name and a praise
among his countrymen, and added terror
to the courtesy of his country's flag. The
toast was drank with enthusiasm, and then
all was quiet.
A friend, sitting next to the gallant cap
tain, said, 'Sir, we are waiting for your
speech.' 'A speech !'said the chivalrous
but modest Hull,' I can't make one—l
don't know how.' A gentlemen on the
opposite side of the table exclaimed, audi
bly, Sir, you are in for a speech. Don't
you see that the president is waiting for
your response to the toast V Tne noble
Tar rose up and said, 4 Mr. President, the
gentlemen round me say that you and the
other gentlemen are waiting for me to
make a speech. Sir, I never made one
in my life. 1 can't do it sir. I don't
know how, sir. By thunder I'd rafher
fight the battle orer again than try it.''
The rafters of Faneuil Hall were a little
displaced by the truthful delicacy of the
gallant captain ; but we never heard that
the newspapers of that day thought it a
proper subject of ridicule,or that it impair
ed the well-earned honors of the chivalrous
sailor.
DEATH A MONO THE FISH. — Fesierday,
in Charles River, near the Western Bridge
of the \\ orcester Railroad, it was discover
ed that the fish were dying by hundreds.
By noon their dead bodies were seen float
ing down the river in sw arms. They con
sisted principally of shineis, but there
were many larger fish, even to perch of
two pounds. The opinions as to this mor
tality were vaiions ; some think that the
cholera had got amongst them, while
otlieisw era of opinion that they had been
poisoned by refuse matter thrown into the
river from the paper nulls above. — Boston
Traveller.

44 Well, Patrick," asked the Ducto - ,
" how do you do to-day ?"
14 Oh, dear Doclhor, I enjoy very bad
health entirely. This rheumatics is very
distressing indade. Whin I got to sleep
1 lay awake ul! night, and my too is swell

SELF GOVERNMENT—Let not any one
say he cannot govern his passions, nor hin
der them from breaking nut and carrying
him into action ; for what he can do be
fore n prince or a great man, he can do
alone, or in the presenoe of God if he
will.— Locke.
He who betrays another's secrets be
cause he has quarrelled with him, wa

a breach of kindness on one site will not
justify a breach of trust on the other.
