THE DREAMS OF OTHER YEARS
The dreams, the dreams of other years
Flow beautiful they were!
Well may their memory in the hcat
Ite deepest - pulses stir;
For to the cold and common eat tit
They lent its warmeet ray,
The stare that warbled at their hi, th.
Were ant mere pure her. they.
They sprang luxuriant es the Lowell
That deck the wood and dell.
And, like the leaves of autumn, they
Were brightest then they fell;
Yet, who, with all their witchery',

The earliest and the sweetest one,
The dearest of them all—

Well at Its gentle memory

For oh, 'twas wildly worshipped on,a
'Tis fondly cherished still.
Friendship! eh me. what charm rem that.
By name so sacred known.
That brightened with the morning light,
And with the eve was gone—
A shifting shadow on the grass,
sup-gleam on the sea—
Alf i things that quickly come and pass
Are typical of tliee.
Then came the dream at high renown.
That buoyed - the spirit np,
And kept the fainting purpose strong . ,
To drain each bitter cup,
All, all have passed away, away,.
As sunset clouds depart ;
But the shadows or their laveJlimss
Are mirrored in the heart.
They sprang luxuriant as the flow ere
That deck, the wood and dell',
And, like the leaves of autumn, they
Were brightest when they fell;
Yet who, with all their witchery.
Their mingled joy and pain,
Who would forego their memory,

THE LITTLE SISTERS
A PRETTY STORI
"iou were not here yesterday," said
the .gentle teacher of the little village
school, as she placed her hand kindly on
the curly head of one of her pupils. It
was recess time, but the little girl ad
dressed had not gone to - frolic away the
ten minutes, not even left her seat, but sat
absorbed in what seemed a fruitless attempt
to make herself master of a sum in long
division.
Her fitee and neck crimsoned at the re
mark of her teacher, but looking up she
seemed somewhat re-assured by the kind
glance that met her and answered "No
ma'am; I was not, but sister Nelly was."
"1 remember there was a little girl who
called herself .Nelly Gray, came in yester
day, but 1 did not know she was your sis
ter. But why did you not come ? You
seem to love study very much."
"It was not because I didn't want to,"
was the earnest answer, and then paused
and the deep flush again tinged that fair
brow, "but" she continued alter a moment
of painful embarrassment, "mother cannot
spare both of us conveniently, and so we
are going to take turns, going to school
one day and sister the next, and to-night
to teach .N elly all 1 have learned to
day, and to-ni - orrow night, she will teach
me all that she learns while here. It's the
only way we can think of getting along,
and we want to study very much, so as to
sometime keep school ourselves, and take
care of mother, because she has to work
very hard to take care of us."
v all genuine delicacy itliss
forbore to question the °laid further, but
sat cioNsu oesiue her, mid in a mo
ment explained the rule over wnicn she
was puzzdng her young brain, so that the
ditWAIIL sum was easily finished.
, liou had better go out and take the air
a moment, you have studied very hard to
day," said toe teacher, as the little girl
put aside her slate.
"1 had rather not—l might tear my
dress-1 will stand by the window and
watch the rest."
There- was such a peculiar tone in the
voice of her pupil as she said, might
tear my dress," that Miss M-- was
led instinctively to notice it. It was nothing
but a ninepeuny print of a deep hue, but
it was neatly made and had never yet been
washed. And while looking at it she re
membered that during the whole previous
fortnight that Mary Gray had attended
school regularly, she had never seen her
wear but that one dress. "She is a thought
ful little girl," said she to herself, "and
does not want to make her mother any
trouble—l wish I had more such scholars."
_
The next morning Mary Spas absent, but
her 'sister occupied her seat. There was
something so interesting in the. two little
sisters, the one eleven and the other eigh
teen months younger, agreeing to attend
school by turns, that Miss M could
not forbear observing them very closely.
They were pretty faced children, of deli
cate forms and fairy-like hands and feet
—the elder with lustrous eyes and chesnut
curls, the younger With orbs like the sky
of June, her'white neck veiled by a `wealth
of golden ringlets. She observed in both,
the same close attention to their studies,
and as Mary had tarried f within during
play time so did Nelly, and upon speaking
to her as she had to her sister, she re
ceived, too, the same answer, might
tear my dress."
The reply caused Miss M to no
tine the garb of the sister. She saw at
once it was the same piece as Mary's; and
upon scrutinizing it very closely, she
became certain it-was the same dress. It
did not fit quite so pretty on Nelly, and
was.too long for her, too, and she was evi
dently ill at ease when she noticed her
teacher looking at the bright pink flowers
that were so thickly set on the white ground.
The discovery was one that could hot
but interest a heart so truly benevolent as
that which .pulsated in the bosom of the
village school teacher. She ascertained
the residence of their mother, and though
sorely shortened:herself of a narrow purse,
that same night, having found at the only
- store, in the place, a few yards of the same
material, purchased a dress for little Nelly;
-nnd sent it to her in such- a way that th
donor could not be detected. *
Very bright and happy looked Mary i
.Gray on Friday morning as she entered the ,
school at an early hour. She waited only
tb place her books in neat order in her desk,
ere she approached Miss M an d
whispered in a voice that laughed in spite
of her efforts to make it low and deferential.
"After this week sister Nelly is coming to
school every day, and oh, I am so glad !"
"That is very good news," replied the
teacher kindly. "Nelly is fond of her books,
I see, and I am happy 'to know that she
can have an opportunity to study her books
every day. Then she continued, a little
good natured mischief encircling her eyes
and dimpling her sweet lips. "But how
can your mother spare you both conveni
ently ?"
"0, yes, ma'am, yes ma'am she can now.
Something happened she didn't expect, and
she is glad to have us come as we are to
do so." She hesitated a moment, but her
young heart was tilled to the brim with joy,
and when a child is happy it is as natural
to tell the Cause, as it is for a bird to war
ble when the sun shines. So out of the
fullness of her heart she spoke and told
her teacher this little story
She and her sister were the only children
of a very poor widow, whose health was so
delicate that it was almost impossible to
support herself and daughters. She was
' obliged to keep them out of school all win
ter, because they had no clothes to wear,
but told them that if she could earn enough
by doing odd chores for :the neighbors to
buy each of them a new dress, they might
go in the spring. Very earnestly had the
little girls improved their stray chances,
and very carefully hoarded the copper
coins which had usually repaid them. They
had a calico dress, when Nelly was -taken
sick, and as the mother had no money be
forehand, her own treasure had to be ex
pended in the purchase of medicine.
"0, I did feel so bad when school open
ed and Nelly could pot go, because she
had no dress," said Mary. "I told mother
I wouldn't go either, but she said I had
better, for 1 could teach sister some, and
it would be better than no schooling. I
stood it for a fortnight, but Nelly's little
face seemed all the time looking at me on
the way to school, and I couldn't be happy
a bit, so 1-finally thought of a way by which
we could both go, and I told mother 1
would come one day, and the next I would
lend Nelly my dress and she might come,
and that's the way we have done this week,,;
But last night somebody sentsister a dress
just like mine, and now she can come too.
0, if 1 only knew who it was, I would get
down on 'my knees and thank them, and so
would Nelly. But we don't know, and
so we've done all we could for them—
we've prayed for them—and oh, Miss
bi ,we are all so glad now. Ain't
you too ?"
"Indeed I am," was the emphatic an
swer. And when on the following Monday,
little Nelly, in the new pink dress, entered
the school room, her face radiant as a rose
m sunshine, and approaching the teacher
table exclaimed in tones as musical as those
of a freed fountain, 4, 1. am coming to school
every day, and oh, lam so glad !" Miss
bI , felt as she never felt before,
that it is more blessed to give than to re
ceive. No millionaire, when he saw his
name in public prints, lauded for his thous
and dollar charities, was ever so happy as
the poor school teacher, who wore her
gloves half a summer longer than she
ought, and thereby saved enough to buy
that poor little girl a calico dress.
WHAT OUR YOUNG GENTLEMEN
ARE MADE FOR.
• This is a very easy matter to find out,
for upon three minute's acquaintance with
any of them you may discover their mental
and bodily composition, notwithstanding
the emphatic line of the poet Campbell,
"Can hearts be read ! Alas, we answer
No!"
Well, if we cannot read he - arts we can
read heads without being a practical phren- '
ologist.
In every sized community, we may find
a vast variety of young men with very cu
rious peculiarities, i to wit:
Anybody may khOW the "sap headed"
young gent. tie looks as if his brains
were marbles and continually chasing
each other through the cavities of hiseran
ium. This young man is never burthened
with an original idea, and ever sides with
everybody else's opinion—pass him around:
The "religious minded" young man may
be easily known—physiognomy rathe elon
gated—closely shaved face, shirt collar
anti' neck-keichief neat—hair tranquil—
never laughs—smiles now and then4--takes
down all the texts of a Sunday,, and knows
nothing about the merits of the sermon—
language rather effeminate, and steps aside
to avoid a worm—deal amiably with him.
Here comes the "funny minded" young
man. A rollicking, bolstering, dancing,
whistling, fat faced fellow. Ever itching
for fun, to stamp on the cat's tail, bruise
old people's corns, and make horrible faces
at the baby !—At a party he's licking the
girls, or else showing how to swallow the
poker. He knows a verse of every comic
song, and is great on good feeding. His
laugh is the loudest and merriest, and
there's no end to his mischief. Let him
have his fling.
Nobody ca mistake the "literary mind
ed" youn entleman. He has always a
book ewhere about him, and a periodi
cal in his hat. On his tables are papers
and pamphlets strewn around. He feed(
on literature. He is not a general talker,
but if he can get a friend in company to
themselves, then he warms upon the merits
of his favorite authors. He's no hand at
making an extempore speech, and his
writing does not flow with original ease,
from the fact of his anxiety to imitate the
style of the classic writers. Bury him in
. a Library! .
The "blowing" young gentleman- is
heard from in every assembly. Everything
he has a hand in is the best of its kind.
He is acquainted with the "biggest bugs"
and intimate with the most beautiful ladies.
Every thing pertaining to him and his,
is of a superlative nature. He tells how
he walked thelarthest, danced the longest,
rode the fastest, kissed the greatest num
ber of ladies,
and was the best shot. His
tailor is the best and his bootmaker cannot
be equalled. For the sake of being super
lative in all things he'll admit he is the
greatest ass! Let his ears grow !"
You are surely acquainted with . the
"bashful" young gentleman, rather tall
and delicate. 'coking, has a timid voice,
and startles if he hearslimself speak above
a 'whisper. He is allays ready to blush
and to be seen near a_ woman?. ' He

THE PRINCE OF - GOOD FELLOWS
This is a title bestowed generally upon
a stout gentleman, with a pinguid com
plexion, plethoric habit of body, a red face
and a loud laugh, whose chief business
seems to be haliging about_ bar room,
drinking at other people's expense, and re
turn telling broad stories, acting ludicrous
pantomimes, and entertaining circles of
companions with such gossip and trifling as
seems appropriate to theplaces hefrequents.
He is always an amiable man sometimes
ev6n a loveable one in.many respects ; but
"his convivial habits have long ago overcome
all his better qualities, and he now devotes
himself entirely to their gratification.
The Prince of Good Fellows should nev
er be seen before 12 o'clock in the day, as
up to that time he is full of aches; sad, mo
rose, and nervous, talks vaguely of illness
and deaths, contemplates his finger nails,
sighs, rubs his eyes, and yawns, and fre
quently gives utterance to the sentiment
that this is a hard world to live in, which
it undoubtedly is for him.
During this depression, he resorts to al
coholic stimulants to bring up his nerves,
and by dint of frequent, the repetition of
the remedial agent and a frugal repast, ea
ten standing, from the counter of some bar,
he succeeds in restoring a portion of the
lost nervous energy, and begins to come
out quite strong about the hour of meri
dian. At this time he presents the appear
ance of a jovial, pleasant, happy man, and
so the superficial portion of his admirers
deem him; some of them indeed, going so
far as to envy his lot, and to wish they
were as contented as he.
At dinner, the Prince of Good Fellows
is looked upon as a most desirable compan
ion. He knows all the etiquette of the ta
ble, and never commits any breach of the
unities of that place. He dresses a salad
with exquisite taste, and cannot be decei
ved in wines. He gives you a history—
which he has accidentally stumble" upon
in Chamber's Miscellany or Household
Words, and has a pleasant anecdote to fill
all the pauses of cunversaticn.
The ladies fancy him very much, for he
is respectful, concedes everything to them
and defers to their judgment. He does
not take much wine while they are at table,
and opens the door for their wit with infin
ite grace. Once they are gone he devotes
himself to the decanters, and the roars of
laughter that follow the ladies up stairs are
provoked by a 7 smart joke of his, which
would not bear repetition in. the drawing
room. Still, he is not vulgar, and a real
ly coarse witticism actually offends him ;
for he has delicate sensibilities, and his
broad style of humor grows out of the wine
rather than naturally from his taste.
Later in the evening, when he joins the
ladies above stairs, he is attentive and
marked in his conduct towards them, turns
their music, adjusts the piano stool, and
if he sees a middle aged spinster, a plain
or a slow one neglected and playing wall
flower, he is peculiarly attracted toward
her, and bores himself perhaps in the effort
to do her a kindness.
Sometimes the Prince of Good Fellow;
is a bachelor, but oftener he is a married
mantwith , several children. His wife is
rarel3 , seen in society, and her appearance
is that of one out of health and much*de
pressed in spirits. Her dresses are usually
of a bygone style, and though neat, giVe
evidence of a rigid economy and many ar
tifices to make the two ends meet.
She takes the back streets and the less
frquented side of the way as she walks
abroad, and takes special care to avoid
public places where she may meet the gaze
of her husband's friends.
She walks rapidly with her head down,
and in winter draws her scanty shawl tight
ly about her shoulders, an ungloved hand
showing the hole in front. Occasionally
she may be met coming from market mea
gerly stocked; but her husband seldom
dines at home, and she economises in her
table expenses, for he requires clean linen
and neat garments, and their purse will
not afford sumptuous living. To see him
in his prime and glory, you must meet the
Prince of Good Fellows at an evening party
of -young men, when supper, and wine, and
cards, and loud talk, and merriment are
the elements of the entertainment.—
There he comes out strongest; there
his good fellowship is most thorough
ly developed; there he is in his element,
and to see and hear him one would say he
was the happiest of men.

THE FRIEND'S REMARK
The honest man may bless his stars,
Whose agency unceasing
Conducts him free from mental wars.
With comforts sweet'incressing:
When nature pleases to endow,
As wi=dour has designed it.
With cOllllllOll sense to leads him how
To know his ptnn and mind it.
How ever quick the critic's eye.
Or matchless his perception
In judging, wisdom says lar shy,
Time may unveil deception:
And well to lot At pass unseen,
Nor count thyself a touch- stone.
Relieve me sir, the name of green
A galling yoke when bitch'd on.
Apply the astie's golden rule.
Thy sensual passions smother,
Correct thy errors. thou soft fool
And then rhastise thy brother;
And ere you sink this world of sin
By judgment purely pious.
Reverse thy eye and search within.
You may find something hiss.
Judge not in baste—remember trio
Tho' circumstances suit you.
That others may the case review
Who might perhaps confute you.
And ere you from your moorings drop
Some landing place discover.
And steer with care, that when you stop
You may from thence recover.
It ill befits a drudge like me
To teach the fnpling would b,.
Or even hint. tile' plainly see
What ought to. might. or could be.
Vet grudge ourselves as neighbors du
Might change esteem to wonder.
And save us by a self review •
From many a blot and blunder.
Poor simple, sober, honest clown
The gazing stock of fashion.
Who bears the mark of fortune's frown
On finch bestow compassion.
And be his raimen t e're so thin,
Let critics use forbearance,-
There may bejewels stored within
More precious than appearance.
Porn. grovling buffoon, void of sk ill,
Ills:life a chef a of pothers,
Who thinks himself to climb the hill
By mere retarding others ;
While honor'd path proud genius keeps
Which common logic teaches.
True merit must surmount the steeps
Which envy seldom reaches.
I grieve to see a whimsey clown,
Of all things else unheedful,
But bow he hest may trample down
The helpless poor and needful.
Tho' placed behind some papar screen
Take counsel I advise you,
Lest in the end you may be seen
By those who might chastise you.

J. C. ATER. Dear die,—Sly lit;le son, four years old has
just recovered from a severe attack of malignant Scarlet
Fever, his throat was rotten, and every peoson that visited
him, pronounced him a dead child. laving used your
Cherry Pectbral in California, in the winter of 1860. for a
severe attack of Bronchitis, with entire success, I was in
duced to try It on my little boy. I gave him a tea-spoon
ful every three hours, commencing in the morning, and
ten o'clock at r..akt.„ I found a decided change for the bet
tor, and after three days use, he was able to eat or drink
without pain.
Its•usa in the above named disease will save many a
child. from a premature grave, and relieve the anxiety of
many a fond parent. For all affections of the Throat and
Lungs, I believe It the best medicine extant. A feeling of
the deepest gratitude, prompts me in Addressing you these
lines,—but for your important discovery, my little boy
would new have been in another world.
