When softly came the wreathing Spring To dance around the rosy ring— And still to raise the early flowers, The sky flung down refreshing showers, The Lord was pleased to bless our land, To scatter round his favors kind ; Then praise Him for His liberal hand, And all His mercies bear in min I. When Summer came, with twilight eyed, Her path a rainbow in the skies; Her hands with fragrance dropping sweet, And rose; gathered at her feet, ie•brushed the blossems from the trees And left the fruit unformed and bare, To court the sunshine and the breeze, And ripen in the balmy air. Then Autumn claimed the sovereign And swept the clustering leaves away ! • Yet nourished still the branching root, And filled the earth with ruddy fruit. Then raise your fervent hearts to heaven, Give gracious thanks to God above; Who all these glorious gifts hath given; And praise His mighty love ? And also on the venturous deep, • Our God a watchful eye did "keep ! He bade the billows rage no more, And brought our vessel safer° shore. Then bless. Him for His Wondrous grace; Give thanks for His almighty care; And bending low, with veiled face, Lift up the voice of praise and prayer ! Give thanks to God ! Glad homage pay ' He swept destruction from our way He let no fell disease appear, But bless'd us with a healthy year Then sing loud praises o'er and o'er— All honor to the Lord Divine For he has overflowed our store With waving corn and flashing wine With reverent awe, and holy fire, Exalt the heart and strike the lyre Oh, sing to Him a sacred song, To whom all sacred things belong! With earnest soul, with humble voice, We'll breathe our thankful prayers to Heaven Praise our kind Father and rejoice For all the thvors He path given! elect PATCHOULI(; Or, the Test bf the Lips IZEIZIEI It is known to all lovers of sweet aromas that there is a very costly and fashionable perfume hear ing the unseemly-looking term which we has e placed at the head of our story. But as much in vogue as this charming scent now is, it is not a very long time ago it was first introduced upon the toilets of the fair ladies this side the Atlantic. Its origin is Parisian, and when first discovered, its rare and delicate odor, with its costliness, united it exclusively to royal patronage. It is at this period that our story opens; the scene, however, is not laid in Paris, but in Boston. By a window in a drawing room of a handsome ly furnished house sat a young married woman, her cheek resting upon her fair hand, and her eyes fixed upon a small parterre of flowers that intervened between the mansion and the street. The roseate glow of a rich twilight lent a glory to her brow, which was lofty and very beautifully shaped. The lady was dressed with simplicity and taste in white, her dark brown hair bound about her head in a graceful band of folds, with a tress or two falling beneath the ear and resting upon the snowy neck. Her beauty was without fault, save that her cheek was something pale, and her looks disturbed and She sighed heavily, and lifted her eyes from the parterre for an instant, let them rest upon the moulded arm which had supported her cheek. The arm was bare in its loose sleeve and clasped at the wrist by a bracelet of golden links. The shape of it was incomparable.. A painter would haiie done homage to its faultless outline. She regarded it for a moment or two, and sighed heavily. 'What is beauty to me if it no longer binds Ed ward to my side?" she said sadly. "We have been but a year and a half married and already his heart is estranged. His love is another's. He once praised my arm and called it faultless. He once called me beautiful beyond all my sex. He used to tell me that one hour of my society was dearer to him than years would be passed in the presence of others. He said that he had no eye or thought or emotion for any other. But now how changed is his conduct from those protestations! I know he no longer loves me. He caret but lightly for my society. I know that another has taken his love froth me. That love! Oh, that he had never beheld her! Her dangerous beauty , had ensnared him, and my power over him is . gone. At this moment, instead of sitting here by my side or walkinewith . me abroad, enjoying my society and sympathizing with me in the beauty of the scenery and of the hour, he is with her! Perhaps at this moment she leans upon his arm, and looking up into his face with her deep blue eyes, listens enrap tured to his voice as he bends tenderly towards her and discourses of love. That low voice which in mine only to listen to! That arm which it is lily wifely privilege to be sustainer? by at such an hour and time!" " Sister Clara V' said a voice near her. "Alt, Frank, how softly you entered!'' she ex claimed with surprise and a slight confusion. "No. I came in as usual: but you were so much engaged in talking to yourself that you did not re gard my step. What is this Are you really jealous of Edward?" said the young man, laughing, as he threw himself upon the ottoman by her and took her beautiful hand in his. "I am not jealous, brother; but I do not like Ed ward's attentions to Miss Lawrence?'' 'Why, it is nothing, Clara. You know he was at College with her brother, and they were very in timate; .and he looks upon Emma only as a sister." "No, Frank. He doesn't look upon her only as a sister. His manner in her society is not the same that it is in his sister's." " What is it like then r_ "It is like his manner to me when we were en gaged.... He regards her with the same expression with which he then . used to look upon me. You need not smile, Frank. It is to me a very serious matter. lam satisfied that Edward loves Emma Lawrence." "Folly Emma, you know, is a clever girl. She is very fond of literature, and so is Ned. She writes poetry, and so does he. , "I know all that you can say, and it is these very accomplishments which, added to her beauty, have ens,nared his heart. Why should he so often seek her society and leave wine? The husband's presence will be where his heart is. Edward now scarcely passes an evening with me:' 'Do you know that he passe:: them with herd' "I am sure he does.- Dd you know it. sis - Where else should he go? Besides he is so con , fused ur else he gets so angry when I ask him. I ant certain he passes with her more of his time evenings titan he does with me.? "Well, it may be. Emma is 'very interesting, and I know that Ned delights in hearing her con verse. Be assured their acquaintance is merely in tellectual. Ned's heart has nothing to do with it. I know he loves you. I couldn't be made to be lieve the contrary. His attentions to you are as lover-like now as they were before you were mar ried. As to looks, he certainly never looks at you without making love-eyes. The truth is, Ciara, you are too monopolizing.. You are suspicions of any other lady's admiration of him, and tremble if he speaks in civil terms to any lovely girl he sees. This active, wakeful, selfish love has annoyed your husband, who has more than once spoken to me about it. He is of a social turn and loves intellectual con versation ; you know you are very taciturn and do not call up the resources of your mind as you ought to do. You read very little, while he reads much. Great readers love to interchange ideas upon books and authdrs. You care little for books, and such conversation can never be lr.ng continued between you. if Edward meets with a lady like Miss Lawrence, for instance, in whom he discovers a mind congenial in its sympathies with his own, it is natural that they should seek au interchange of the treasures of their intellect. This alone is the basis of their friendship, and be sure you have nothing to fear from it as a wife!" It Emma were not ,o beautiful -Your own beauty is his protection. His heart will ever be yours." • But Ido not like this close intimacy. It robs me. It vexes me that she should share his society. I envy her—nay, I almost hate her. I confess that it is with difficulty I can speak to her with civility. She seems to me as it she knew she held a power over my husband.' "This is all your imagination." Clara. "Do you think it possible that Edward can be so much with her and not feel a deeper emotion than mere intellectual friendship' , She has fasci noting eyes and dangerous voice and smile for such a susceptible person as he is. TI T was sure he never took her hand when he was with her. I shouldn't care much.- "It would be no great harm if he "I should never care to have him take mine after. An intellectual conversation does not require that the hands should be locked together." Do you suspect him of this enormous offence'!" You may ridicule me, Frank. But I don't feel like smiling, I know he takes her hand. Last evening, when he came in after nine o'clock, he sat by me and lifted up my hand to his lips. He seldom does it. lie then began to play wills my lingers. and to admire and speak of their shape: he would turn my hand over and then look at my arm, all in such a way that I am sure he was men tally comparing me with Emma Lawrence ; and so, snatching my hand from him, I told him plain ly if he wanted to dally witl pretty hands and arms, he had better go back to the society he had just left." “What said Ned to that ?” He blushed, was silent, and then laughed as if he would treat the matier lightly." "You take the course. Clara, to make him do just ' what you told him not to do. If you really think your husband loves this fair girl, your proper course should be to surpass her in attractions. In beauty, beautiful as she is, you are her superior, in every quality of the head and heart; you are her equal. If you fear for your power over his heart, you have ' 1 only to rival her you fear is your rival. Read the books he loves, and talk with him upon them.— Study his tastes, and meet him with smiles, and not suspicious looks. He sees only smiles on Miss Lawrence's face. 'Let him see smiles on yours. It , is no way for a wife who would retain a husband's love, to make her face and herself as disagreeable as possible. He will be sure mentally to contrast it with the brighter face of her rival. She loses by the comparison. The rival gains by it. His affections are hardened by it. He is rendered indif ferent and reckless as to your frowning, and, out of opposition will perhaps give you the real cause for jealousy. Ido not believe that Ned has either press ed the hand or lip of Miss Lawrence; but I believe ; • you could make him resolve to do both the very next time he met her." You are in conspiracy with both of them agaihst "No, I any your friend, Clara, I know that Ed ward's acquaintance with Miss Lawrence has been honoMble. Did I suppose it to be otherwise, I should be the last to defend him:" "I do not doubt his honor; I do not question her purity. No ! but if I knew that he had but kissed her ; it would render me miserable." "You are very foolish. I have seen Edward kiss at least two young ladies in your presence." "Those were my cousins, mid my particular friends. I Solt mind that... "Then I will tell you how to put this jealousy of yours to death " Make Miss Lawrence your friend. Seek her society. Treat her with affectionate interest. Know her good qualities, and you will love her. Once you are good friends, you will no longer mind Ed ward's attention to her, nor take it very much to heart if he should kiss her. But as it is, you treat her coldly, and he sees it, and sympathizing with her, wilkbe sure to treat her the more tenderly to atone for it. You make yourself see a bad matter worse. :Make your rival your friend, and she will then have too much generosity to suffer your hus band to, take a liberty with her that he would not take in your presence. But treat her as an enemy, and you have no such protection from her gratitude, and everything to fear from sympathy for her and resentment at your jealousy. But I must go. I have brought you this little bottle of Parisian scent, that I by the merest chance succeeded in getting before I left Paris. It is probably the 'only one in America." " Yes, it i 3 the most exquisite perfume in the world. _du revoif ! To-morrow I will dine'with you. Heed my advice, and be assured you will de stroy all cause for jealousy." " Now; said the jealous bride, as the door closed on her brother, now I will put the test. I.know that their meetings are not purely intellectual. Emma loves him ; for I have discovered it also in her looks. Never maiden loved her lo•'er more than this beautiful, dangerous, talented girl loves Edward.' I will think of what Frank has said, if, after this trial, he proves innocent." 1:11031131i The following 'morning about eleven o'clock, Emma Lawrence was prantising-upon her hare a new piece of music, on the top of ivhich, in pencil was written ‘ To Emma from E," A servant en tered and announced' Mni. Cleves." The lovely girl blushed deeply between surprise and pleasure, and putting aside.her 'harp, arose to receive her yisiter, who of late had been estranged. Emma met her with frankness, and would havt kissed her, but Mrs. Cleves slightlytkew back. The interview was for a moment or two mutually em barrassing. Emma had long felt Mrs. Cleves' cold ness, and she hardly knew how to treat her. At length Clara, glancing at her harp, asked her to play. Emma, happy to have an end to the con straint, seated herself by her harp and sang several songs with exquisite effect, accompanied by the rich music of the skilfully touched strings. Gradually the restraint wore off, and they con versed easily and cheerfully. Emma was delighted. Clara was all the while envying her grace and beauty, and trembling for her husband's loyalty. She turned the conversation to Paris, and then to her brother's return. By the by. Emma, you are very fond of scents. Frank has brought home one very, rare, that is only in use with royalty. I have a bottle that Ica n spare, and beg you will accept of it. It is called by the odd name of Patchouly." "You are too kind to remember me. 1300 can t take anything so valuable from you.' 1 . assure you it would afford inn pleasure to re ceive it. bliss Lawrence. Frank says it is used only Inc the lips, to which it gives a charming red, while it makes the whole breath as fragrant as the perfume of a rose." The gift was accepted, and the fair conapirator took her departure. =Ell •I'he evening of the same day, Edward Cleves rose from the table and took his hat. " Where to-night, Edward ?" I am going to walk, Clara." To see Miss Lawrence, I dare say. I think you had better divorce me and marry her at once." "I shall not go there." Will you promise me f" No—not if you are so jealous as to make me promise." I have reasons to be jealous." You have not. 1 have never said a word to Miss Lawrence, or comported myself towards her in any manner different than I should have said or done in your presence. Yet you accuse me con stantly of it. You will soon weary my forbear ance, and I may do that out of revenge which your suspicious are constantly charging me with. I shall call and see her, Clara, and now! your jealousy makes your society distasteful. Your beauty is marred by it. You watch me with an active eye, and mark all my movements. If lam ten minutes from the post oifiea, that ten minutes you accuse me of having passed on the way with Miss Law rence. Try to make yourself as agreeable to me as Miss Lawrence is, and I shall never seek her society...or that of any other Person." Thus speaking, the flirting husband left the room. 131133311:13 About hall-past nine the young wife heard the footsteps of her husband. • " Now I shall know;" she said, with feelings.of painful triumph. Good evening, Clara," said he, approaching her. `• Good evening, Edward," she answered, rising and kissing him on the lips. " I am glad to see you meet me so, instead of with reproaches." " Reproaches do you not deserve them, sir?" she demanded with vehemence : for she had detected the aroma of Patchouly upon his lips. "N o ra How dare you answer me so innocently? You have been to see Emma Lawrence." "I told you I should go, because you were in such a jealous mood.•' Fine intellectual interview's! Very philosoph ical, I have no doubt!•' said she scornfully. " What is the matter?" How innocent ! Pray which kisses the sweet What do you mean?" " I mean that I have found you out." " 'Me?" " Yes—xx!" What have I done r You have kissed Emma Lawrence !" "Kissed her ?" " I dare say you would call it extracting the dews of wisdom from her lips!" Upon my word Clara—" " You may laugh. But it is true. You have kissed her. Deny it if you can. Kissed her on the lips tool" The husband stood a moment in a state between laughter and vexation. At length the former pre. called, though he colored from conscious guilt." " Confess it, Edward. Tell me the truth. I won't bu uo angry." "I will tell you the truth if you will tellme why you suspect. - "I do not suspect—l KNOW ! Am I not right ?" Yes. But it is the first time. I did it out of revenge upon you for so often having charged one with it. I ask your forgiveness, as I had to do hers. But now, how did you know it? Were you peeping in at the window by some tell-tale crevice?" No. I knew Emma was very fond of perfumes. Frank brought me a new and costly one from Paris. There is none like it in this country. I suspected you. I made a present of it to Emma, telling her it was used for the lips and breath. When you kissed me just now I found your lips a.] fragrant as doubtless her own were when yours met them. This is the way I have discovered your treachery to me. It has been, you will confess, a, successful test." The convicted husband laughed heartily at this development orthe plot against him; and promised his ingenious wife from that hour she should never have reason to question the loyalty of his love. " And I too, Edward," said Clara, "will endeavor to consult your intellectual tastes, and so charm you with society that you will never seek that of Others for mental recreation; for you have been in great danger. The love of the intellectual of beau. ful women in a man of imagination may be trans ferred to tlie person, and the friendship that had its beginning in the head may end in the heart!!

From the:Boiton .Poit Horse Story. A jocose Boston auctioneer was called upon one day by a country dealer from Vermont, who wish ed to dispose of his horse. He was one of those. distinctive characters peculiar to that section, with countenance strongly indicative of simplicity and shrewdness. " I say," said he, " I want to: see the auctioneer that auctions off horses here on Saturday." " I'm the individual," said the auctioneer; "what can I do for you!" • " WelLI ve got a horse 1 waist to sell, provided I can get enough for him; don't want nothing more than his value neither. He's a good one, though just now he's a lade thin ; but I reckon he ought to sell pretty smartly." Very good, will you have him advertised!" "Well, I guess I don't know about that. What do you ax " One dollar first insertion, fifty cents for every time aftet. That's tew dollars for three times ; I reckon that you may pmt him in the newspaper once, strait ger, and after that let him slide Very good, what color is he !" "Rather brown than otherwise." " Is he sound r' •' Sound! Oh, sound as a dollar; shouldn't like to warrant him, though." "All right. I'll advertise and sell him on Sat urday. Have tour," critter" at the mart by twelve jes wan to tell, Mr. Auctioneer, I should like to have the animal limited at fifteen dollars, but you may let him go for live "Exactly, and you won't take a great deal more than is offered for him, will you r' Well, no, I'm not dispositioned to be hard, any how, I calculate' not:' Saturday came, and one dollar and a half was bid for the animal brought up by the horse dealer. "Go on, gentleman, I have only one dollar and a half bid for the horse; how much more do I hear f One dollar and ; half—going, going." "Sell him, sir, he's dying !" whispered the Vermont horse dealer into the ear of the hammer. "Goner shouted the auctioneer, and down went the old horse at a dollar and a half. After the sale the horse dealer was the first one up at the desk to settle. " Well, I reckon it won't take long to settle up this little trade of Mine about the horse," said he. Not long," said the clerk;' there's yohr account of sale; you have just to pay us fifty cents mott than the horse brought:: "Po-litical de-struction exclaimed the Vermont• er, with a humorous affectation of astonishment. Then with a satisfied manner, he. continued, "It's cheap enough! Ther's a fifty cent piece. Cheap enough! I couldn't gin him away at no price, and it would have cost tew dollars and a halt to bury I him. Jest half a dollar saved. Good morning, Mr. Auctioneer Cheap enough!" Colored Men in Paris. Robert Walsh, in one of his letters, to Littell's Living .fige, writes : Our French paragraphists are not particularly struck with the capacity of the negro race to main tain republican institutions, as it is exemplified in the monopoly of the products of the soil, and of all traffic, internal and external, by the government of Hayti. The black man—the true ebony—in the delegation of the Antilles, who sits in the centre of the Montaguards in the Assembly, was the servant of a white general resident in the capital. An in timate acquaintance of the master told me, a few days ago, that the representative had not resigned his domestic post, .whether from personal attach ment or prudential motives, he would deserve credit for either. &gentleman of New Orleans, on a visit to Paris, relates to me that, a fortnight since, while seated in a side box of the first tiers of the grand opera, he distinguished a colored family in. the one ; immediately opposite ; by his opera glass he dis covered that the he - ad of it, whom he recognized, distinguished him, and was about to come round to hip by the lobby. A feeling natural to a Southern American induced him to prefer that the interview should not be in the box which he occu pied. He met the visiter in the lobby ; the latter grasped his hand, and reminded him that he had been his tailor at New Orleans. , I retired;' he added, " with a good property ; we are well settled here; thata.my box, once a week; we shall be happy to see you at our apartments." Rebuilding of the Templet The Jews, both here and in Europe, are just now making great efforts to raise subscriptions for the re-building of the Temple of Jerusalem, permission to that effect having recently been given them by the Turkish Government. The subject has been in agitation in this city. of late, and at the Hebrew Festival the other evening, at the Coliseum, it was prominently discussed. Among the guests there, not mentioned in our report of the proceedings,was a Greek Rabbi, who comes here specially commis. Sioned to raise money for the enterprise in question; and we are told his errand, thus far, has beenpretty liberally rewarded. The Rabbi goes next, South, we are told, and, before going back to Europe, will visit the Eastern States. However chimerical this new movement may appear, to us there seems 'a sublimity of purpose about it which must : claim the respect, at least, if not the sympathy, of all Christendom. —N K ,Ezpresr., Character of Penn. NlAcA.uttr, in his new history, says of WILLIAM PENN nations and hostile sects have agreed in canonizing him. England is proud of his name. A great commonwealth beyond the Atlantic re gards him with a reverence similar to that which the Athenians felt for 'rhesus, and the Roman Quirinus. The respectable society of which he was a member honors him as an apostle. By pion., men of Other persuasions, he is generally regarded as a bright pattern of chrisiianyirtne. Meanwhile, admirers of a veay different sort have soundedhispraises. The French philosophers of the 18th century pardoned what they regarded as his superstitious fancies in consideration of his contempt for priests, and of his cosmopolite benev olence, impartially extended to all.races and .to all creeds. His name has thus become, throughout all civilized countries, a synonym for probity and philanthrophy. Annum Las, in aletter to Gen.
