EARLY WOO'D AND WON.
El MRS. ALDY.
O ! sigh not for the fair young hritle,
Gone in tier opening bloom,
far from tier kindred, lov'd and tried,
To glad another home ;
Already are the gay brief days
Of girlish triumph done,
And tranquil happiness repays
The early woo'd and won.
Fear shall invade her peace no more,
Nor sorrow wound the breast;
Her passing rivalries are o'er.
Her passing doubts at rest ;
Tiie glittering haunts of worldly state,
Love whispers her to shun,
Since scenes of purer bliss await
The early woo'd and won.
Here is a young and guileless heart,
Confiding, fond, and warm ;
Unsullied by the world's vain mart,
Unscathed by passion's storm ;
in 1; hope deferred" she had not pined
Till hope's sweet course was run ;
No chains of sad remembrance bind
The early woo'J and won.
Her smiles and songs have ceas'd to grace
The hall of festive mirth,
But woman's safest dwelling place,

Her hours of duty, joy, and love,

I'care lie her portion from above,

DON'T DOSF. TOUR CHILDREN. —Our doctor
says it is astonishing how tough children become
as the family grows. It is a wonder that most
partr-ls don't kill their first child, with anxiety
and medicine.

that baby about to sneeze ?"
" 'Pon my life, 1 don't know :—why?"
" Didn't it offer to sneezer"
" I really cannot say. Why ?"
" Down with that window—get mo (he 'syrup
of Ipecac.'—and then run for the doctor. Run
—run !"
" But there's nothing the matter with the
child," persists the father.
" There is, 1 tell you. Here hold it's nose,
until 1 give it this medicine. Oh, dear, we're
going to lose it. Go for the doctor, somebody !"
and tho silly and inexperienced mother worries
herself into a ferment, doses her baby until she
makes it sick, teases the doctor, and annoys
every body. Don't dose your children.

who had an old tailor as his beadle or officer
for many years, returning from a walk where
Thomas was in the constant habit of attending

minister's man :
" Thomas, I cannot tell how it is, that our
church should he getting thinner and thinner
—for lam sure I preach as well as ever I did,
and should have more experience than when I
first came among you."
" Indeed," replied Thomas, "old ministers
now-a-days, are just like old tailors ; for I am
sure 1 can sew as well as ever I did, ar.d the
cloth is the same, but it's the cut, sir—it's tho
new cut."
PROSCRIPTION— a neu> Move. —lt is rumored
that Gen. Taylor, to atop the lamentations of
Mr. Ritchie, has directed a strict search to he
made for some Whig who held office by the
appointment of Mr. Polk, and that if any such
shall he found they shall be "turned out" forth
with. Up to the last advices the search was
entirely unsuccessful. A citizen of this place
(J. L. Childress, Esq..) has been heard of as a
case in point; but has held office only foT half
a day, and then only through the mistake of
Mr. Secretary Walker, he is not considered as
coining "under the rule."— Tuscaloosa Mon
