Upon a time, an ass was seen
To strut-about in Lion’s skin,
A cunning lad, and rather smart,
He practiced long deception’s art,
Until, alas ! he turn’d about,
The skin was mov’d, his ears stuck out,
His master now observed the trick
And beat him till the lad was sick.
An ass is/famed for want of knowledge,
And sonata some who’ve been at college;
,_So frail is I "form’d the human mould,
. (As we have oft before been told,)
The man of genius iu his wisdom
Has often known it to be At*doom,
To tread the path among the hills
With those but fit for Cotton Mills.
Friend J. I pray do not despair
If 1 havejucAr’d thee from thy lair,
Or squar’d thee with “ mechanic’s skill,”
You’ve planely seen I indant no ill.
You’ll prosper yet as poets ripe,
Or paint a true daguerreotype,
Your talents good and full of merit,
Cramp not such genius in a garret.
Don Quixote, sir, a sight most rare—
A Spanish Don whose face is bare,
I think ’twould lie at least material,
That he'should have a small imperial.
Cur critics now with turned up nose
In small moustache and flashy clothes,
Attempt to pass as their bright lore
The lines they’ve robb’d from Scott and More
We’ve one bright youth that may be seen
To strut about in fine nankeen ,
A foreign lad of great renown,
Whose partly stranger to our town,
He struts about —naught else to do, .
But see that poets are tended to,
He may be known in streets or lanes,
By his line clothes, and shallow brains.
Ye critics all, what ills
If vc be doomed to Cotton Mills ,
Or practice the da<>uerrean art,
1 pray yuu play a critics part;-
Don’t waste your spleen to please a jack,
For if you do, I fear, good lack !
Will get the trouble lor your pains,
Your waste of ink and loss o £ brains.
THE SCHOOL MISTRESS.
BY MBS. % M. SEYMOUR.
‘‘The school ma'am's coming, the school ma’am’s
coming,” shouted a dozen voices, at the clbse of a
half hour's faithful wajch to catch a glimpse of otir
teacher. Every eye was turned toward her with
the most scrutinizing glance—for the children as
well as others always form an opinion of a person,
particularly of their teacher, at first sight.
“ How tall she is!" exclaimed one. ‘‘Oh, don’t
she look sweet.-'" cried another. “110, I ain’t afraid
of her, nor a dozen like her," cried the “hig boy' 1 of
the school. “Nor I either,’’ cried the big boy’s,
ally,” “ I could lick her easy enough, could nt you,
Tom ?” “ Yes, and I will, too, ii she goes to touch
me.” “Hush,” cried one of the girls, “she will
hear you.” By this time she had nearly reached
the door, round which we were clustered, and every'
eye was fixed upon her face with an eager, yet
half bashful gaze, uncertain, as yet, what verdict
to pass upon her. I
“ Good morning, children," she said, in the kind
est voice in jhe world, while her face was lighted
with the sw-eetest smile imaginable. “This is a
beautilul morning to commence school, is it not?"
“ 1 know.l shall love her,” whispered a little pet
in my ear.
We all followed her into the school room, but
Tom Jones and his ally, who waited until the rest
were seated, and then came in with a swaggering,
noisy gait, and a sort of dare-devil saucy look, us
much as to say, “ who cares for you?'’
AJiss Westcott looked at them kindly, but ap
peared not to notice them further; after a short
prayer and reading a chapter in the Bible-, she
passed round the room, and made some inquiry of
each one in regard to themselves and their studies.,
“And what is your name?" she asked, laying
her hand upon Tom s head, while he set wittahis
hands in his pockets, swigging his feet backwtmls
and forwards.
“Tom Jones," shouted he at the top ot his
voice.
“ How old are you, Thomas?’’ she asked.
“Just as old agin as half,’’ answered Tom, with
a saucy laugh.
“ What do you study, Thomas V'
“ Nothing.’’
“ What books have you * '
- "None."
Without appearing to be at all disturbed by his
replies, Miss Westcott said, “ I am glad I have one
or two large boys in my scho >1; you can be of
great assistance to me, Thomas, and if you will
stop a tew minutes after school this afternoon, we
will talk over a little plan I have formed.
This was a mystery to all,-and particularly to
Tom, who could nut comprehend how he could be
useful to any one, and for* the lirst time in his life
he felt that he was of some importance in the
world. He had had no home training; no one
ever .told him that he could be ot any use or do
any good in the world. No one loved him and of
course he loved no one, but was one of, those who
believed that he had got to bully his way through
the world. He had always been called the “ bad
boy” at school, and he took a sort of pride and
pleasure in being feared by the children and dread
ed by the teacher.
Miss Westcott at once comprehended his whole
character, and began to shape her plans according
ly. She maintained that a boy, who at 12 years
old made himself feared among his school-fellows,
was capable ot being made something of. Hereto
fore all influence had conspired to make him bad*
and perhaps a desperate character ; she was deter
mined to transform his character by bringing op
posite influences to work upon him, and to effect
this, she must first gain his confidence, which could
not be done in a better way than making him feel
that she placed confidence in him.
When school was outsnore than half the schol
ars lingered about the door, wondering what Miss
Westcott could be going to say to Tom Jones. He
had often been bid to remain after school, but it
was always to receive a punishment or severe lec
ture, and nine times out of ten he would jump out
ot the window before half the scholars were out ot
the room ; but it was evidently for a different pur
pose that he was to remain now, and no one won
dered what it could be more than Tom Jones.
“Don’t you think, Thomas, that our school room
would be a great deal pleasanter if we had some
evergreens to hang around it; something to make
it cheerful?* inquired Miss Westcott.
“ Yes m, and 1 know where I can get plenty of
them. 7 ’
“Well, Thomas, if you will have some here by
eight h clock to morrow morning, I will be here to
help you to put them up, and we will give the
children a pleasant surprise.; and here are some
books I will give you, Thomas; you may put
them in your own drawer, they are what 1 want
you to study.”
. ‘‘ But I can't study geography and history,” ex
claimed Tom,’confused, “I never did.”
“That is the reason why you think fcfa cannot,”
replied Miss Westcott. “I am quite sure you can,
and you will love them I know.”
“Nobody ever cai%i whether I learned anything
or not before,” said Tom, with some emotion.
“ Well, I care/’ said Miss Westcott, with earnest
ness, “ you are capable of becoming a grand and
good man; you are.now forming your character
for life, and it depends upon yourself what you be
-come. poorest boy in this country has an
equal chance with the wealthiest, and his circum
stances are more favorable for becoming eminent,
for he learns to depend upon himself. I will assist
you all | can in your studies, Thomas, and I know
you will succeed; remember that I am your friend
and come - to *me in ; every difficulty.”
Tom Jones had not been brought up, he had
come up because he had been bom into the world
and could nt help it; but as lor any mental or
moral training, he wa&as fruitless of it as a wild
bramble brush of a pruning-knile. His father was
an intemperate, bad man, and his mother was a
totally inefficient woman. At home lie received
nothing but blows, and abroad nothing but abuse.
His bad passions were therefore all excited and
fostered; and his good ones were never called out.
He always expected that his teachers would hate
him, so he whetted anew his combative powers to
oppose them, and he had made up his mind to turn
the “new school ma’am’’ out of doors. When,
therefore, Miss Westcott declared that she was glad
to have.him in her school, he was amazed; and
that she should manifest such an interest in him.
and give him a set of new books, was perfectly in
comprehensible to him. Miss Westcott understood
his position and character, and determined to mod
ify .them. She felt that he was equally capable of
good and bad actions, though the had now predom
inated. She knew that his active mind must be
busy ; one might as well think of chaining the
lightning as bending down by force that wild spirit
to his hooks. She would give him employment,
but such as would call out a new set of ideas and
thoughts. He must feel that he was doing good
to others and for other’s sake, and that be was not
guided alone by his own wayward will, and yet
there must be no appearance of restraint upon him.
he must choose to do good.
Tom Jones went home that night with a new
feeling in his breast; for the first time in bis life
he felt that he was capable of'rising above bis
present condition, and becoming something greater
and better than he then was. His mind became
inundated with new and strange emotions, and like
a mighty river turned from its course, his thoughts
and encigies from that hour sought a new direction.
The next morning he was up with the dawn,
and when Miss Westcott. arrived at the school
house she found Tom Jones there with his ever-,
greens.
Foi the Intelligencer.
“ Good morning, Thomas,” she said kindly, “and
so you are here before me; you must have risen
early, and have found some beautiful evergreens
and now if you will help me hang them, we will
have all the room arranged by nine o’clock.”*
“ have brought a hammer and some nails,”
said Tom. “I thought we should need some.”
•‘Yes, so we shall; I am glad you thought of it,’
replied Miss Westcott.
That day every scholar looked amazed to see
Tom Jones actually studying his book, and to hear
him answer several questions correctly, and they
were still more confounded, when at recess Miss
Westcott said
“ Thomas, you will take care of these little chil
dren, will you not, and see that they do not get
hurt? You must be their protector.” One would
have as soon thought of setting a wolf to guard a
flock of lambs, as Thomas Jones to take care of
the little children.
“Well,” exclaimed Sam Evans, “ I never saw
such a* school ma’am in all the days of my life/
did you Tom'?” a 7°
“No,” replied Tom, “but I wish I had, and, 1
would have been a different boy from what/l am
now, but I am going to study now, and learn some
thing. Miss Westcott says I can, and I4m deter
mined to try.”
I was astonished to observe the effect that Miss
Westcott's treatment of Tom had upon the schol
ars; they began to consider him of some import
ance, and to feel a sort of respect for him which
they manifested, first by dropping the nickname
Tom, arid substituting Tommy, which revealed
certainly a more kindly feeling towards him.
In less than a week, Miss Westcott had the school
completely under control, yet it was by love and
respect that she governed, and not by any iron rule
she moved among her scholars a very queen, and
yet she so gained their confidence and esteem, that
it did not seem to them submission to another's
will, but the promptings of their own desire to
please. One glance } of her dark eye would have
quelled an insurrection, and one smile made them
happy for a day.
J.ulia Westcott taught school with a realization
of the responsibilities' resting upon her, and she
bent her energies to fulfil them. Carefully and
skillfully she unlocked the soul’s door and gave a
searching glance within, in order to understand
its abilities, and then shaped her couree according
ly. The‘desponding and inactive she encouraged;
the obstinate she subdued; to the yielding and
fickle she taught a strong self-reliance. She en
couraged the one rain drop to do all the good it
could, and the rushing torrent she turned where it
would fertilize, rather than devastate.
There are in every school some dormant energies,
which it aroused, might shake the world. There
are emotions and passions, which if let loose, will,
like the lightnings of the heaven, scatter ruin and
blight, but it controlled, may like the element be
come the messenger of thoughts to theferorld. In
that head you call dull, may lie slumbering passions
like some pent up volcano ; open that closed crater,
and see if there do not belch forth flames which
your own hand cannot stop.

Julia Westcott understood human nature. She
made it a study, as every teacher ought to do. She
rooted out error and prejudice from the minds ot
her pupils, showed them the evil of sin and beanty
of virtue, the advantages of education, and the con
sequences of ignorance; taught them their own
capabilities and responsibilities, and she adapted
her instructions to capacities and necessities. And
thus she went on. year alter year, scattering.gooJ
seed into good ground, and she reaped an abundant
harvest. From many a happy home and high
place come a blessing upon her, and there is no
one who breathes her name with greater reverence,
or remembers her with more grateful affection,
than “ Tom Jones,” who has filled with ability one
of the highest judicial offices in the Union, and
who freely acknowledges that he owes his present
character and position entirely to her treatment
ami instructions.
- Truly, “he that goeth forth weeping, bearing
precious seed, shall come again rejoicing, bringing
his sheaves with him.”
The Deacon’s Hymn Book.
Old Deacon H. was one of the best men we ever
knew. He had been deacon in the church for ma
ny years, and, unless prevented by sickness or very
bad weather, never allowed his seat to remain va
cant. His wile had been dead for years, and he
was left with two boys—Joe and Sam—who, at
the time we speak of, were respectively fourteen
and sixteen, and ripe for. any kind of mischief—
They were in all sorts oft ugly scrapes, and kept
the good old falher in continual trouble. Believing
firmly in that passage of Proverbs, which says °
“Spare not the rod and spoil the child,” he never
failed to lay it on thick, but without effect; for not
withstanding these oft repeated flagellations, they
\vere acknowledged to be the worst boys in all the
village. Among other things, Joe was very fond
of practical joking, and loved particularly to play
off his jokes on the old man. In these affairs he
w’&s always assisted by Sam; and Joe would, in a
majority of cases, manage to get the young scamp
between him and the consequences.
For years the deacon had worn a black cloth
coat to church every Sunday, and.in the pocket of
said coat there was regularly kept a hymn book,
which, after being tsed on the Sabbath, was allow
ed to remain in a the pocket during the week. This
was well known to Joe, who was resolved to have
a joke at his father’s expense. The coat hung on
a peg behind the door, 'and he took occasion one
day, during the old man’s absence, to remove the
hymn book and place in its stead a pack of cards
which were gbout the same size. Now it happen
ed that Deacon H. was the only man in the whole
congregation who could raise the tunes, and as he
was the oldest deacon, he had a seat immediately
under the pulpit, in plain view' ofthe congregation.
The next Sunday he put on his coat, felt the
hymn book (as he thought) all safe, went to ; the
church, and took his usual seat. The minister a
s*ve out the hymn, and a dead pause ensued.
he w “ole congregation turned their eyes on the
deacon to see why he did not start the tune. What
was their surprise to see in his hands, instead of
his hymn book, a pack of cards! The young ones
laughed, the old ones looked grave, while one of
maiden ladies exclaimed in a rather loud tone,
•who d a thought it! ’ Bin how acted the deacon ?
i oor man as much conlused as any one—he drop
ped the cards, seized his hat, and rushed from the
house as fast as his legs could carry him.
The next day he was called before the church to
have the matter satisfactorily explained. Joe got
thoroughly drubbed, (he could’nt get Sam into that
scrape,) and never after did the good old deacon
start to church until he was certaiin that it was his
hymn book, and not a pack of cards, he carried'in
h|s pocket.

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 30, 1850.
SPARKIN’ A GAL;
Or, Love an 9 Bolt Dogs.
They do say that gals is a leetle contrary, but
’taint so. They may act a leetle baulky sometimes,
but then arter all they like a feller well enuff—
’Taint gal fashion to tell o’nt rite off; they re a
sort o’ turkey buzzard, they'll peck around*for a
spell, then all to onst they’ll gite up an’ nab a fel
ler, I've had considerable ’speariance in that line,
an’ 1 know a leetle sumthing 'bout it. Now, I've
courted a darn many gals in my life, an’ perhaps
more.. The Just gal that ever I went to see was
Nancy Newlett. Sweet Sissily! she was a scrouger.
If a teller should see her once, he'd melt sure.
There was sumthing scrumshus ’bout that gal, that
made me love her mor'n I could pick up chips for
a week. Many an’ many’s the time I've took that
gal to meetin’. All the other fellers would look at
us, as tho they’d like to mix in : but ’twarnt to be
did! I iwan to man if I ever ketched a feller a
winkin’ at my gal, I’d knock him blue’rn a jay
bird. One Sunday that gal axed me to come an'
see her, when the old folks warn't to hum. Jehu !
I d go if Beelzy bub stood in the door. Sunday come,
an’ I put on roy best rig, rubbed ’bout a ponnd o’
taller candles an’ a quart o* goose grease in my
hair, an’ off I started, whistlin’ Yankee Doodle, an’
prouder'n old Zack Taylor at Bony Yisty. I got
thar an’ there warn’t a soul to hum ’cept Ike, her
little brother. Well, I warn't to be skeerc by
trundle-bed trash, so 1 took a char an 5 sot down
’bout a rod from Nance. I felt all over as queerish
as a hen with her head off. She looked at me an’
I blushed so that I felt the grease run down my
back a perfect stream. We sot rhar ’bout an 'hou/
’thout sayirs’ a word. By-and-by she broke out/
“ Is thar any news up your way?” says she:
“ No,” says I, “not as I knows on. Ob|4h, yes,.
Suke Wakefield’s got married, an* run cdPvvith the
tea-spoons an’ a pot o’ plum sass.” /
“ Anything else ?” says she'.’ /
“ Yes,” says I. /
“ What?” says she. /
“ Why one o’ our male-kittens got her head into
the lasses-cup, an’ when her out the young
’uns got hold on her an’licked her to death.”
“ Anythin’ else?” /
“ I believe not,” sa/s I.
“ Won’t’ you sebup near the fire ?” says she.
• “ I don’t care/if I do,” says I.
So I closer. She commenced a laffin’.
Trowsers ajr coff-candy ! I could’nt stan’ it no lon
•ger, so I test up and gin her a kiss—maple molass
es! if ar feller could only spread sich things on a
chunkro’ shprt cake!
Arter a while the old folks come home an’ axed
me to stay to supper, so I staid. Well, to cit a
/long yarn short, I concluded to stay all night. So
arter talkin’ to the old man a spell ’bout harvestin’
an’ the like, I bid all hands good night an’ started
for roost. ’Twas ’way up in the cock-loft, whar 1
could look through the rafters an’ see stars. So
arter skarein’ a couple o’ cats off o’ the ruff that
was a mewin’, I luffed into my nest, an’ 'twarnt
long afore I was a snorein’ like a roach. I slept
all night till nigh on to mornin’, when I heard the
darndest racket that ever was. So I tho't I’d jist
git up an’ take a survey, an’ see what on airth was
the mattery Jest as I was gittin’ out o’ bed, my
shirt somehow or other got over the bed post, the
bead-boar’d came out, I slipped an’ fell head down
wards. 1 tho to’ Captain Kidd, Abysylom, an’ all
other unfortunate beins what got hung, but they
had a consolation what I had'nt got—they hung
right end up. I began to say the Lord's prayer as
loud as I could holler, when I heerd that gaul-darn
noise agin, an’ I looked—crippled creashun, an’
Tom Walker! when I think on't, ’tis enuff to make
me kick ray old blind grandaddy from here to king
dom come, an’ from there to the salt-works. I hope
I may be scorched if thar warn’t the old man’s New
foundland dogs had my trowsers in thar jaws, one
holt o’ one leg, an’ the other a pullin’ on ’em, an’
tearin’ ’em up the crotch—net satinetts, cost me
twenty York shillins—it’s a fact! What did I dew,
then? you’ll ask. Why I was thunderstruck with
the cussed dogs’ imperdence, so I jest concluded to
come down. I gin one jerk an’ down I come, flat
on the floor, ’thout a darned rag on me ’ceptin a
sleeve o’ my shert; the rest hung to the bed post.
Arter I’se down, I darsent to go near the dogs, for
I se-afeerd they’d put their dental arrangements in
my runnin’ beams.
The next minut I heerd the old man a cornin’
up stairs with a pitchfork, a thinkin’ there was
robbers or a dromedary tryin’ to set file to the
house—so I tho't ’twas time to marvel. I eyed
them are cussed brutes, an’ then,
“ With Tarquin’a ravishin’ strides towards his de
sign I moved like a ghost,”
grasps a sheet, raps it around me, jumps out’n a
tew story winder on a shed, an’ Irom tbar to the
ground, an’ skeeted quicker’n a streak o’ lightnin’
thio’ a pertater patch.
I never went to see Nance arter that. In con
clusion I would say to all fellers what’s a goin’ “to
sparkin',” to find out whether ther’s any bone hun
ters ’bout the premises; if thar aint why buck right
up an’ don’t be skeert, but if thar is, turn your heel
an’— travel.
A Card Party.
It is related of Madame du Deffan, that three ot
her friends brought a card table to her bedside, at
her request in her last illness, she taking a hand.
As she happened to die -in the midst of an interest
ing game, her partner played dummy for her, and
thus the thiee quietly played it out, and settled the
stakes before they called the servants to notify them
of the very important demise of their mistress.
Shocking as is this incident, it is trivial in compar
ison with one which is said to have occurred at
Albany many years since. There was at that time
a low eaved, peak-rooted, stone built inn, situated in
the upper part of the city, known as the“Colonie;”
a place much frequented by Schenectady teamsters
and Mohawk boatmen, before the completion of
Clinton’s grand canal had caused that dissipated
mongrel race to be superseded in their
At this inn one day a manby the name ot Derrick
Helfenstein, better known as “Dirk Hell of German
Flats,” had been seized with convulsions amid a
drunken frolic, and expired during the fit, with his
limbs all twisted and kffofted together by the fierce
muscular action incident t 6 his disease. In Albany,
at that time, the Dutch custom of several friends
of the deceased Remaining all night in the same
room with the body, and keeping their vigil until
the moment of interment, was always strictly ob
served; coffee, and mulled wine, with dote, or dead
cakes, and other refreshments, being generally pro
vided by the nearest relatives to cheer the gloomy
duty of the watchers. Dirk Hell (or Hell-dirk, as
he was quite as often called) though a wretched
vagabond, had still some whom he called friends,
among the reckless gambling crew with whom he
chiefly associated; and as the landlord ol the inn
where he died could no; well refuse the customary
refreshment of liquor upon an occasion like this
three idle hangers-on or the establishment readily
consented, to honor the obsequies ot Dirk by the
usual vigil. The dead man in the mean time was
duly laid out; but the distorted shape which his
body had assumed in the death agony, made it nec
essary to use great force in straightening out the
corpse, and recourse was had to cords to bind down
his limbs to the decent form it was desirable they
should assume. The disagreeable task being ac
complished, the three friends of the gambler, when
night came on, took possession of the apartment
where he was laid out. With characteristic reck
lessness, they had brought a pack of cards into the
chamber of death, and after taking a glass of liquor
all round, and drinking the memory of their com
rade with some unfeeling allusion to his sudden fate
the three profligates sat down to a game of cards
upon the foot of his bed. Four hands were then
dealt, that of “dummy” falling almost upon the
feet of the corpse, and the other three upon the op
posite sides and extreme end of the bed around
which the players were thus arranged. The game
proceeded apparently to the satisfaction of all par
ties—each of them by turns playing the hand of
“dummy” until drinking and gambling had carried
them deep into the middle watches of the night.
Some slight dispute, occurred, as to who should
play the next dummy. Words waxed high, and
the two opposite players both attempted to seize
upon the vacant hand at the same time, while the
third, impatient at the contention, exclaimed—
“l wish that Hell-dirk would spring up and take
the cards from both of you!”
The wretch had hardly uttered the wish, before
the cords that bound the corpse gave way with a
sharp crackiiig noise, the struggle about the feet
having probably disarranged them—and the distort-
ed body, released from its ligatures, bounded for
ward in resuming the form under which life had
left it, and seated itself upon its haunches with the
knees drawn up to its chin, arms akimbo, and hid
eously distended jaws, in the midst of the appalled
and disconcerted trio. The three worthies were
said never to have played a game of .cards after
that night.
