“FLORAL APOSTLES.
BY MRS. H. J. LEWIS,
Gather me flowers. Since spring has strewn
Her floral gems o’er hill and glade,
My soul in silent dreams hath flown
To those old haunts of light and shade,
Where, with a gentle friend, the hours
Swept by awakening fair young-flowers.
There pause the birds for welcome rest,
And from their flowing urns of song
Fill the hushed'air the charmed breast,
While over and around them throng
Soft incense.laden airs, that bless
i All life with angel tenderness.
Gather me flowers, and each shall be
Love’s messenger,,almost divine,
With whispered tales of stream and tree
And voice of bird attuned with thine.
Spring too is here—but not the flowers
That smile is sunlight, weep in showers.

" A ROMANCE WITHOUT FICTION.
Wondrous are the ways of Providence, and sin
„ gular are the doings of man, especially in these lat
ter days of human progress. The gigantic strides
of science, levelling in its track prejudice and igno
ranee, making “ancient goods uncouth," has pre
pared the human mind .to combat the expression
of the wise man, that there is “nothing new’ under
the sun.” Nothing new, forsooth! Well, if there
is really nothing new, old customs sometimes ap
pear before us clothed in a strange garb—a very
new coat of many colors. “It is not meet that
man should be alone"—from the very foundation
of the world, woman was placed in it to love, cher
. ish and comlort man. In pursuance of this divine
gift of God, the custom of courtship and marriage
was introduced, and at the present day wisdom
sanctions the former while law binds the latter.—
Courtship and marriage in all civilized countries,
present the phase in the abstract, but the success
ful issue of a matrimonial negotiation we are about
to chronicle, possesses a spice of romance altogeth
er out of the ordinary manner of every day life,
having gleaned the facts from'authentic and reliable'
sources.
* About three years ago, the Rev. R. S. M’Clay, of
Concord, Franklin county, Pa, (late of Gettysburg,)
received a call on the Board of Foreign Missions
connected with the Methodist Episcopal, Church,
to visit China and preach the Gospel to the benight
ed Celestials of the central flowery land. M'Clav
was young, ardent and enthusiastic, and most wii
lingly embraced the high and holy duty assigned
him.
■ In due time he arrived in Chinn, and was sta
tioned at Fau Chun, seven hundred miles in the in
terior from Hong Kong. Thero he studied the
native language, and commenced his labor of love
among the Celestials, with the most flattering suc
cess. Still there was something wanting—a void
in the heart to be'fdled—he sighed for that best
solace to man, either in weal or woe—a wife. —
How to get one, was an intricate question to solve.
There were no American ladies there from whom
he could make a choice, and as for a Chinese wife,
the laws of the lajid forbade it, neither did his in
clination desire it. What then was to be done ‘—
A fertile imagination can accomplish wonders—a
firm determination can surmount 'difficulties that
would “o'ertop old Pelion.” He wrote to the Board
of Missions on the subject—he wrote in pathetic—
we might perhaps say.poetic—strains, of his lone
ly condition for the want of one on whom he could
bestow his affections, and who would be the part
ner of his joys and sorrows through life, and ended
by asking that the Board send him a young lady
who would be willing to become his wife—agree
ably to his directions, which he sent in the form
of a blank declaration to- be filled up by the lady
accepting the proposision.
This was a novel proposition, but the Board was
of opinion that it was a just one, and proceeded
with due diligence to search for the object desired,
and strange to say, success “crowned their effort.
Sometime previous to the receipt of Mr. M’Clay’s
letter, a young lady, Miss Henrietta Sperry, of
Brooklyn, N. Y., made application to the Board
to be sent as a Missionary to China, but was
refused on account of being unmarried. ' To
her the application of Mr. M ; Clay was shown:
she at once tilled up the blank application, and a
correspondence ensued which ended in her leaving
New York m company with a number of other
Missionaries, on the 12th of March last, in the ship
, Tartar, for Hong Kong, where she will be met by
Mr. M Clay, and the nuptial ceremony will be sol
emnized.
The lady’s personal attractions have been descri
bed us, by one who had the pleasure of seeing her
previous to taking sail on her mission of love.—
She is described as being beautiful and fascinating
in her appearance, and possessed of that charm of
loveliness which should adorn every female char
acter—a well cultivated mind stored with the rich
est gifts of knowledge from the fountain of educa
tion, and a moral refinement which will bear with
it the jewel of a bright inheritance beyond the con
fines of time*.
She is now on the dark blue sea where “the hol
iow oak” her home must be for at least half a year.
Who so dead to all feeling as not to admire such
heroism?—a young and lovely girl, forsaking home,
friends, and all the dearest ties of earth to travel
thousands of miles over the stormy billows, to
dwell perhaps forever among Heathens, for the
double purpose of affording consolation to a servant
of God, and aid in spreading the light among those
who walk in darkness, is at once a moral and sub
lime undertaking, requiring a? degree of devoted
ness and firmness that ftill compare favorably
with the self denial of the Spartan of old. Heaven
send propitious gales to waft .the Tartar to her
destination. Who can doubt but that a union form
ed under, such circumstances must be a hannv
one ?— Blair Whig. i 1 3

MR. SAMPSON’S HOUSE j
OR THE MISTAKE OF A TRAVELLER.
‘ Once upon a time,’ a queer old fellow named
Smith started from a Southern city upon a pedes
trian excursion of about one hundred miles. He
was not such a very old fellow, either; he was
about forty years older than when he was born.—
This Mr. Smith, (he was not connected with the
John Smith family in the most remote degree,)
was a man of many peculiarities. If absolute stu-
pidity did not lorm a prominent trait in his ohar
acter, it was a quality which very much resembled
stupi(lity } and might easily be mistaken for it, by
at least one half the world.—-He had manifested a
singular abstraction, generally described as absence
of mind, apd would frequently roam about the
streets ,an entire day without recognizing one of his
numerous friends—apparently without being aware
of the nature of his movements. This was Mr.
Smith.
We were saying that Mr. Smith started upon a
journey on the ‘ ten toed machine’ spoken of in
John Bull. After travelling a few miles our pedes
trian felt somewhat thirsty, and called at a small
establishment which lookfofcas though it was about
half a tavern, for a drinkf^
A good natured young fellow waited upon him
—brought him brandy and Water—and in addition,
furnished him with a bit of bread and cheese.
this was decidedly welcome and refreshing. When
Mr. Smith had quencheffhis thirst and satisfied the
slight craving of appetite, he re commenced his
travels, and, as he left the city tolerably early in
the morning, he thought he might walk two or
three hours longer, before he stopped for dinner.
His road seemed to be very level, and was skirt
ed on one side by an uncommonly high fence. On
he footed’it for about three hours longer, until a
.glance at the position of the sun satisfied him he
had better procure his noon day meal. He called
at a small dwelling by the road side, and the fol
lowing dialogue ensued between him and a boy
standing in the door-way:
* Who lives here, my son ?’
‘ Mr. Sampson, sir.’
‘Do -you keep a tavern?’
* Why, sorter, and sorter not—we accommodate
people sometimes.’
‘ Can I get dinner here?’.
‘ Yes, sir—walk in.’
Our traveller walked in, and in the course of
half an hour a nice comfortable- dinner, smoking
hot, was set before him.
He ate, drank, paid his moderate bill, put on his
hat, took his walking stick and proceeded upon his
journey.
Before he renewed his labors, however, he took
the precaution to fill his pipe, carefully and then
lit it. Fresh’and vigorous as ever, he then pushed
ahead; but as the sun crept down the horizon, Mr.
Smith began to feel some degree of weariness
stealing over him; still he persevered until it was
quite dark. Finding himself opposite to a small
house by the road side, he enquired of the youth
seated upon the threshhold :
‘ Who lives here, my son?’
‘ Mr. Sampson, sir.’
‘ Can I get supper and lodging here to-night, by
paying for it?’
Certainly, sir—walk in.’
Mr. Smith crossed the threshold, laid aside his
hat and cane, drank a cup of tea, and ate two or
three slices of toast, read four chapters in ‘ Fox’s
Book of Martyrs,’ which he found upon the man
tlepiece, and went to bed. s When he awoke in the
morning, the sun was just showing its broad red
disc above the tree tops. found the breakfast
upon the table waiting for him. He finished the
morning meal, and commenced his travels the sec
ond day. One thing simply attracted his attention
•—the road was exceedingly uniform—but the fact
excited no surprise. At noon he called at a snug
little house, and asked the lad who was gazing
out ol a window:
‘Who lives here, my son V
1 Mr. Sampson, air.*
Our traveller paused a moment, reflected, and
seemed to bo conning over some name or circum
stance in his mind—at last he said
‘ Are there many of the' name ol Sampson on
this road, my son '*
' A good many,* said the boy.
‘ l thought so. Can you give me dinner here,
my son /’
‘ Certainly, sir—walk in.*
Mr.„Smith stepped in, swallowed his dinner, and
once more took the road. When night came on,
he of course.stopped at the first house on his way.
A youth sat upon a wheelbarrow at the door,
whittling.
‘ Who lives here, my son
‘ Mr. Sampson, sir.’
‘.Mr. Sampson! by Jupiter! I should think they
were all Sampsons on this road. I got dinner at
Mr. Sampson's yesterday, slept at another Mr.
Sampson's last night, and here I am at Mr. Samp
son s again to-night. Besides the houses 1 have
seen upon this road ail look alike—it’s very queer.'
‘Very queer,’ replied the boy with a leer which
seemed to say, ‘you cant fool me old fellow.’
‘Can you give me supper and lodging?' said the
traveller.
1 Certainly—walk in.'
‘I m darned if this isn't a queer country,' -says
the old man as he went to bed; ‘ this looks exact
ly like the room I slept in last night*; but I suppose
it is all right.'
It was full two o’clock the next day, when alter
travelling briskly at least six hours, Mr. Smith
stopped at a comfortable small dwelling with the
intention of securing his dinner. A boy stood in
the door.
* How d’ye do ?’ said the boy.
‘ Nicely, my son. Who lives here V
‘Mr. Sampson. I’ve told you that hall a dozen
times already.’
‘ The d—l you have. I hav'nt been here before
have I ?’
‘ I reckon you hsve —but ain't you travelling on
a bet V
b d'? ,aVe^ ° n a k 6 *" n °—P u * that in your
Why you ve been walking round the race course
here for tico days and a half and I did’nt suppose
you were doing it for fun.’
For the first time, now, Mr. Smith took a sur*
V ®Y things, and to his astonishment discovered
that the boy had-been telling the truth. He drew
his hat over his forehead and started for home
determined never to enter upon a pedestrian excur
sion again.
Singular Suicide.
James Kenyan committed suicide in the town
of Stark, in this county, on the night of the 25th
ult., under the following singular circumstances.—
Some time during the week, Rev. Jesse Robinson
went to get him to work. He promised him
that he would work for him on Monday, the 2’ftk,
if he was alive, and if he was not alive he (the
clergyman) should preach his funeral sermon at
11 o dock precisely of that day. Kenyan went to
see JohnOßryan and engaged him to dig his grave,
and gave him particular directions how to dig it.—
He then engaged pall bearers, and went to see the
leader of the choir, and engaged him to be present
on the occasion. He also made a bet of fifty cents
with a man by the name of Mount, that he would
be a dead man before Monday Morning; and if he
won the bet agreed with Mount, that he should pay
the fifty cents to O’Bryan for digging the grave.—
Wunng the whole of this time there was nothin*
very unusual in his appearance, and those with
whom he conversed thought he was jesting. On
Sunday morning the 25th, he was found drowned
in Otsquago Creek, in Southville, where the water
was very shallow, with his face in the water, and
his feet and legs out of water on the shore His
funeral sermon was preached, according to his en
gagement with the clergyman, at 11 o'clock , on
Monday, the 27th ult.
Kenyan was an Irishman, about 35 years old.—

“THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS. WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.” Buchanan
CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 25, 1850.
A. MELTING STORY.
One winter evening a country storekeeper in the
Green Mountain State was about closing his door
for the night, and while standing in the snow out*
side putting up the window shutters, saw through
the glass a lounging, worthless fellow within, grab
a pound of fresh butter from the shelf and conceal
it in his hat.
The act was no sooner detected than the revenge
was hit upon, and a very few minutes found the
Green Mountain storekeeper at once indulging his
appetite for fun to the fullest extent, and paying off
the thief with a factious sort of torture, for which
he would have gained a premium from the old in
quisition.
“Isay, Seth!” said the storekeeper, coming in
and closing the door after him, slapping his hand
over his shoulders, and stamping the snow off his
feet.
Seth had his hand upon the door, and his hat
upon his head, and the roll of butter in his hat,
anxious to make his exit as soon as possible.
“ I say, Seth, sit down; I reckon now on such
an eternal night as this, a little somethin’ warm
wouldn’t hurt a fellow.”
Seth felt very uncertain; he had the butter and
was exceedingly anxious to get off) but the temp
tation of something warm sadly, interfered with
his resolution to go. This hesitation however, was
soon settled by the right owner of the butter taking
Seth by the shoulder and planting him in a seat
close to the stove, where he was in such a manner'
cornered in by the boxes and barrels, that while the
grocer stood before him there was no possibility of
getting out, and right in this very place sure enough
the storekeeper sat down. *
“ Seth, we’ll have a little warm Santa Cruz,”
said the grocer as he opened the stove door, and
stuffed in as many sticks as the place would admit;
“without it you’d freeze going home such a night
as this.” :
Seth already felt the butter settling closer to his
hair, and he jumped up declaring he must go.
“Not till you have had something warm, Seth;
come, I’ve got a story to tell you too; sit down,
now, and Seth was again pushed into his seat by
his cunning tormentor.
“Oh ! it's tu darned hot here,” said the petty
thief attempting to rise.
“ Sit down—don’t be in such a plaguy hurry,”
retorted the grocer, pushing him back in his chair.
But I’ve got the cows to'fodder, and the wood to
split, I must be going,” said the persecuted chap.
“ But you must npt tear yourself away, Seth, in
this manner. Sit down, let the cows take care of
themselves, and keep yourself cool; you appear to
be a little fidgety,” said the roguish grocer with a
wicked leer.
The next thing was the production of two smo
king glasses of hot rum toddy, the very sight
ol which, in Seth’s present situation, would have
made the hair stand erect upon his head, had it not
been well oiled and kept down by the butter.
“Seth, I'll give you a toast, now, and you can
butter it yourself,” said the grocer, with an air of
such consummate simplicity, that poor Seth believed
himseff unsuspected. “ Seth, here’s—here’s a Christ
mas goose, well roasted, eh ? I tell you it’s the
greatest eating in creation. And Seth don’t you
never use hog's Jat, or common cooking butter to
baiste it with—come take your butter—l mean
Seth, take your toddy.”
Poor Seth now began to smoke, as well as melt,
and his mouth was hermetically sealed up, as tho’
he had been born dumb. Streak after streak of
the butter came pouring from under his hat, and
his handkerchief was already soaked with the
greasy overflow. Talking away, as if nothing was
the matter, the grocer kept stuffing the wood into
the stove, while poor Seth sat bolt upright, with
his back against the counter, and his knees almost
touching the red furnace before.
“ Plaguey cold night this said the grocer. “Why
Seth, you seem to perspire as if you were warm!
Why don’t you take your hat off! Hew let me
put your hut awoy l ”
* No! 1 exclaimed poor Seth at last, with a spas
modic effort to get his tongue loose, clapping both
hands upon his hat. “No, I must go; lot me out;
I ain’t well; let mo go.”
A greasy cataract was now pouring down the
poor man’s face and heck and soaking into his very
boots, so that he was literally in a bath of oil.
*• Well good night, Seth,” said the humorous Ver
monter, “if you yrill go ?” and adding, as he darted
out of the door, “1 say, Seth, I reckon the fun I’ve
had out of you is worth a ninepence, so I shan’t
charge you for that pound ol butter in your hat.”

Comprising Genera! Indications und Local Predic
tions respecting the Changes of Weather, gathered
during Travels in Europe and America.
BT A RURALIBT.
t( A rainbow in the morning,
Is the Shepherd’s warning;
But a rainbow at night,
Is the Shepherd’s delight.”
A rainbow in fair weather denotes foul—if foul,
lair weather will follow. A double rainbow indi
cates much rain.
A predominance of the purple color of the rain
bow, snows, wind and rain—dark red, tempest
light red, wind—yellow, dry weather— green, rain
—blue denotes that the air is clearing.
If the Aurora Borealis appear after several warm
days, it is generally succeeded by a cloudiness of
the air. If the Aurora Borealis has been consider
able, either an increased degree of cold is immedi
ately produced, or bodies of clouds are immediately
formed.
If in a very wet season the sky is tinged with a
sea-green color, near the bottom, where it ought to
be blue, it shows that rain will speedily follow, and
increase: when it is of a deep dead blue, it is over
charged with vapors, and the weather will be
showery.
When the sun appears white at the setting, or
goes down into a bank of clouds, which lie in’the
horizon, they indicate the approach or continuance
of bad weather.
When it rains with an east wind, it will proba
bly continue twenty-four hours.
The heaviest rains, when of long continuance,
generally begin with the wind blowing easterly,’
which gradually veers round to the south—and the
rains do not cease until the wind has got to the
west, or a little north-west.
While rain is falling, if any small space of the
sky is visible,.it is almost a certain sign that the
rain will speedily cease.
If the clouds, that move with the wind become
stationary when they arrive at that part of the ho
rizon which is opposite to the wind and appear to
accumulate, they announce a speedy fall of rain.
A frequent change of wind with an agitation of
the clouds, denotes a sudden storm.
A fresh breeze generally springs up before sun
set particularly in the summer.
The weather usually clears up at noon—but if it
rains at midnight, it seldom clears up till sunset.
The winds which begin to blow in the day time
are much stronger, and endure longer than those
which' begin to blow only in the night.
A hollow or whistling wind denotes rain.
It.the wind follow the'course of the sun, fair
weather will follow.
Weather, either good or bad, which takes place
in the night time, is not generally of fong duration
—and for the most part, wind is more uncommon
in the night than in the day time. Fine weather
m the night with scattered clouds does not last.
Violent winds prevail more in the vicinity of
mountains than in open plains.
A Venitian author says: “A sudden storm
from the north does not last three days.”
If it thunders in December, moderate and fine
weather may be expected.
If it thunders, at intervals, in the Spring-time,
before the trees have acquired leaves, cold weather
is still to be expected.
Thunder in the morning denotes wind at noon
in evening rain and tempest.
If in summer there be no thunder, the ensuing
Fall and Winter will be sickly.

desire to have something.engraved upon it to denote
what he was. “ You cannot have anything better,”

All Mankind Desire to be Free!
EREE TRADE AND TAILORS’ kIGHTS !
A few short years ago, the person who wished
to make a genteel appearance, was restrained from
the want of means, arising from the fact that the
customer tailor charged four prices for his clothing.
It was at this time the Cheap Cash Clothing Store
started in order to accommodate the public .with as
good clothing as the customer tailor made, at almost
one-haßi.the price. This effort .was appreciated by
the public, and the great encouragement received.,
induced the proprietor to be first in the field
adopt the principle of “large sales and small
profits,” and to extend his business beyond a paral
lel in the history of trade. The plan adopted was
to give as good Clothing as could be made in any
establishment at one-half the usual price. Success
crowned this effort also. .Then, with extended
means, he. undertook a further reduction, by buying
his materials from first hands, and was satisfied
with a very small profit. The public fully appre
ciated this effort, and came in crowds to purchase
clothing of a superior Order, brought within the
reach of all by such very reasonable prices. With
these facilities, it soon became evident that the
cheap cash clothing room became too small to ac
commodate his greatly increased number of custo
mers. In fact, the whole public opened their eyes
with astonishment to see the rise and progress of
this effort for their accommodation, and in the tak
ing of the spacious building, which has opened out
a mighty Hall, in their behalf, where the principle
first adopted by this house of “quick sales and small
profits,” is carried out to its utmost extent. This
building is sufficiently capacious to accommodate
all who may call, and a stock sufficiently large to
satisfy every demand, whether it be a single gar
ment or a wagon load. And such are now the
facilities of this extensive Hall as to enable him to
defy all competition either lrom this or any other
city, fully satisfied that it is an utter impossibility to
furnish cheaper or better clothing in "the whole

MACHINE SHOP AND IRON FOUNDRY
REMOVED.
HAVING removed our Machine Shop and Iron
Foundry, from our old stand, at the Railroad,
to the place formerly occupied by Mr. John Baker,
Coachmaker, in East Orange street, Lancaster, Pa.,
\ve tender our grateful acknowledgements to our
kind friends, customers, and the pubTOgenerally,
for the very liberal patronage heretofore enjoyed,
and that no exertions shall be wanting on our part
to merit a continuance of the public support. Our
new location has been fitted up recently for the
business, affording conveniences not previously
possessed for want of room and suitable buildings—
besides, the Locomotives passing on the railroad
were an inconvenience to our customers that we
are entirely free from in our new location. The
varieties of THRESHING MACHINE made and
repaired as heretofore, Corn Shellers, Wheat Drills,
Ploughs, Horse Rakes, &c., made, and kept on
hand for sale.
Our stock of Patterns connected with the Iron
Foundry, we feel warranted in saying, is fully
equal if not superior, to any other establishment in
the county, being the kind now generally used, to
gether with skilful Pattern Makers at all times ready
to make to order, thus enabling us to fill all orders
for Casting and Fitting with despatch.
