HE ART-E AS IN G THINGS.
To spend a calm bright summer day alone
In one of .Nature's sanctuaries holy,
Where the uncourted hours glide on so slowly
That the long day-dream scorns a life begone-;
In leafy place, with vvator flowing nigh it,
Where faintly sound tho novor-coasing gush,
Low whispering its everlasting hush,
Itself the only breaker of the quiet;
On the cool shiuing grass so still to lie
That you can sou tho thrush’s gleaming eye,
Her soft, bright eye, and mark her speckled breast
As near sho comes, in doubt a moment hovering,
Then darting through tho curt’ning boughs, discov-
ering
Low in the air her leafy-hidden nest.
Or lying on a lonely hill-sido, to
Look upward through tho unfathomable blue,
Beyond the earth-born uloud across it driven,
Calm, changeless, everlusting, called Jloaven,
Tho sapphire lloor trodden by angel legions—
At least tho way to reach their blissful regions,
To watch tho floating cloudlets soft and fair,
And long to bo a spirit thin as air,
To sink halfway into their downy pillows,
And roll to westward ’mong the crimson billows,
Stranded upon the sunset s golden sand;
While clear still is the mild air above,
Embracing all, like tno inliuito love,
linpillar’d dome, rooting earth’s temple grand.

A BACHELOR RECLAIMED.
IIY 11. T. TCCKERMAN.
< You are determined not to marry V
‘ Absolutely.’
1 And why V
< In the first place, I never expect to be
able to support a wife according to my
ideas of comfort. In the second place, I
have no hope of meeting a woman who
will sympathize sufficiently with my feel-
ings and views, to be a oongenial compan
ion. Thirdly, I cannot bear the idea of
adopting as constant associates the rela
tions of her I may love, and fourthly, I
consider house-keeping, and all the details
of domestic arrangements, the greatest
bore in existence.’
This colloquy took place between two
young men, in the garden of the fashiona
ble hotel at Saratoga. It was a sultry
afternoon, and they had retired under the
shade of an apple-tree, to digest their din
ner, which process they wore facilitating
by occasionally puffing Borne very mild,
light-brown Havana segars. The last re
marks were uttered in a very calm and
positive tone, by McNeil, a philosophical
and quiet gentleman, who had a most sen
sible theory for everything in life. Among
other things, he took groat pleasure in the
oonviction that he thoroughly understood
himself. The first time his interest was
truely excited by a member of the gentler
sex, he had acted in the most extravagant
manner, and barely escaped with honor
from forming a most injudicious connec
tion. To guard against similar mishaps,
he had adopted a very ingenious plan.—
Being uncommonly susceptible to female
attractions, ho made it a rule when charm
ed by a sweet face, or thrilled by a win
ning voice, to seek for some personal de
fect or weakness of character in the crea
ture, obstinately dwell upon these defects,
until they cast a Bhade over the redeem
ing traits and dissolved the spell he feared.
When this course failed, he had but one
resource. With Falstaff, he thought dis
cretion the better part of valor, and delib
erately fled from the allurements that
, threatened his peace. Thus he managed
not to allow love to take permanent pos
session, and, after various false alarms and
exciting vigils, came to the conclusion that
no long siege or sudden attack would ever
subdue the citadel of his affections.
But McNeil had so braced himself in a
spirit of resistance, that he had made no .
provisions against the unconscious lures of j
beauty. He could chat for hours with a !
celebrated belle, and leave her without a
sigh ; he could smile at the captivating '
manners which overcome his fellows. Re
garding society as a battle-field, he went:
thither armed at all points, resolved to
maintain his self-possession, and be on the
watch against the wiles of woman. He
had seen lovely girls in the drawing-room, ;
followed their graceful movements in the
dance, heard them breathe songs of senti
ment at the piano, and walked beside them ■
on the promenade. On these occasions,
he eooliy formed an estimate of their sev
eral grace's, perfectly appreciated every
finely-chiselled nose and tempting lip,
noted with care the hue and expression of
the eye, but walked proudly away at part
ing, murmuring to himself, ‘ all this I see,
yet am I not in love.’
But who can anticipate the weapon that
shall lay him low, or make adequate pro
visions against the inexhaustible resour
ces of love? McNeil had sat for a week
at table, opposite an invalid widow and
her daughter. He had passed them pota
toes not less than a dozen times, and
helped the young lady twice to cherry pie.
The only impression he had derived from
their demeanor and appearance, was, that
they were very genteel and quiet. On
the morning after this conversation in the
garden he awaked just before sunrise, and
found himself lying with his face to the
wall, in one oi the diminutive chambers in !
which visitors at the Springs are so uncere
moniously packed. His eyes opened
within six inches of the piaster ; and he
amnsed himself for some minutes in con
juring the cracks and veins it displayed
into imaginary forms of warriors and ani
malß. At length his mind reverted to 1
himself,and his present quarters. ‘ Weill
I’ve been here just a fornight,’ thus he !
mused, ‘ and a pretty dull time I’ve had
of it. Day after day, the same stupid '
routine. In the morning I swallow six
glasses of Congress water at the spring,
with the hollow eyes of that sick minister
from Connecticut glaring on me like a
serpent, and the die away tones of that
nervous lady from Philadelphia, souuding
like a knell in my ears. I cannot drink
in peaoe for those everlasting Misses Hill,
who all three chatter at once, aud expect
me to be entertaining and talkative so
early in the morning, with my stomach full
of cold liquid, and a loDg dull day in per
spective ! Then comes breakfast. The
clatter of plates, the murmur of voices,
the rushing of the black waiters, and the
variety of steams, make me glad to
retreat. I find a still corner of the piazza
and begin to read ; but the flies, a draught
of air, or the intrusive gabble of my ac
quaintances, utterly prevent me from be
coming absorbed in the book. It has now
grown too warm to walk, and I look in vain
for Dr. Campbell, who was the only man
here whose conversation interested me.—
1 avoid the billiard-room because I know
who I shall meet there. The swing is oc
cupied. The thrumming on the piano of
that old maid from Providence, makes the
saloon uninhabitable. They are talking
polities in the bar-room. The very sight
of the newspaper gives me a qualm. 1
involuntarily begin to dose, when that in
fernal gong sounds the hour of dress. No
matter ; anything for a relief. Dinner is
insufferable ; more show and noise than
relish and comfort. How gladly I escape
to the garden and smoke ! That reminds
me of what I told Jones, yesterday, about
matrimony. He laughed at me. But
there’s no mistake about it. Catch me to
give up my freedom, and provide for a
family—he pestered with a whole string of
new connections, when I can’t bear those
I have now—never have a moment to my
self—be obliged to get up in the night for
a doctor—have to pay for a boy’s school
ing and be plagued to death by him for
my pains—be bothered constantly with bad
servants —see my wife lose her beauty, in
a twelvemonth, from care—my goddess
become a mere househod drudge—give up
segars—keep precise hours —take care of
sick children—go to market I never, never,
As his revery thus emphatically termin
ated, McNeil slowly raised himself to a
sitting posture, in order to ascertain the
state of the weather, when a sight L
presented itself which at once put his
philosophy to flight and startled him from
his composure. He did not cry out, but
hushed his very breath. Beside him lay
a female foriniruprofound slumber. Her
hair had "escaped from its confinement, and
lay in the richest profusion around her
face. There -was a delicate glow npon
her cheeks. The lips were scarletly
parted. The brow was perfectly serene.
One arm was thrust under her head, the
other lay stretched upon the coverlid. It
was one of those accidental attitudes whioh
soulptors love to embody. The bosom
heaved regularly. One felt that it was
the slumber of an innocent creature, and
that beneath that calm breast beat a
kindly and pure heart. McNeil bent
over this vision, for so at first it seemed
to him, as did Naroissus over the crystal
water. The peaceful beauty of that face
entered his very soul. He trembled at
the still regularity of the long, dark eye
lashes, as if it were death personified.
Recovering himself, all at onoe something
familiar struck him in the countenance.
He,thought awhile, and the whole mystery
was solved. They occupied the adjoining
chamber ; she had gone down stairs in the
night to procure something for the invalid
and, on returning, entered in the darkness
the wrong room, and fancying her mother
asleep, had very quietly taken her place,
and was very soon lost in slumber. No
sooner did this idea take possession of Mc-
Neil, then with the utmost caution and a
noiseless movement, ho stole away and
removed every vestige of his presence
into a vacant apartment opposite, leaving
the fair intruder to suppose she alone had
occupied the room. At breakfast he
observed the mother and daughter whisper
and smile together, and soon ascertained
that they had no suspicion of the actual
state of the case. With the delicacy
that belonged to his character, McNeil
inwardly vowed to keep the secret for
ever in his own breast. Meantime, with
much apparent hilarity, he prepared to
accompany Jones to Lake George. His
companion marvelled to preceive this
unwonted gaiety wear off as they proceeded
in their ride, McNeil became silent and
pensive. The evening was very fine, and
they went upon the lake tt> enjoy the
moonlight. Jones sung his best song and
awoke the echoes with his bugle. His
friend remained silent, wrapped in his
cloak, at the boat’s stern. At last, very
abruptly be sprung up, and ordered the
rowers to land him. ‘ Where are you
going?’ inquired Jones. ‘To Saratoga,’
was the reply. ‘ Not to-night, surely ?’
‘ Yes, now, this instant.’ Entertaining
Borne fears for his friend’s safety, Jones
reluctantly devoted that lovely night to a
hapd ride over a sandy road, instead of
lingering away its delightful hours on the
sweet bosom of the lake.
Six months after, McNeil married the
widow’s daughter, and the ensuing summer
when I met him at Saratoga Springs, he
assured me he found it a delightful resi
dence.
Design of Education. —The real de
sign of education is to give children resour
ces that will endure as long as life en
dures ; habits that time will not ameliorate,
nor destroy ; occupations that will render
sickness tolerable, solitude pleasant, age
venerable, life more dignified and useful,
and death less terrible.
Sincerity is to speak as we think, to do
as we pretend and profess, to perform and
make good what we promise, and really to
be what we would seem and appear to be.
. A wag being fold by an acquaintance
that Miss Brown (who is rather a broad
featured lady ) had a benign countenance,
he replied, ‘Perhaps you mean seven by
nine.’

"WRITTEN TOR A SOUTHERN PAPER, BUT
SUITED TO MOST MEKTOIAHS.
My Deae Sih ■ —l have just returned
from a tour throughout the State, aDd
proceed to furnish you with an account of
my labors and their success. I have been
gone for three months, and assure you, in
all sincerity, that I am fully satisfied.
You furnished me with a- list of one
hundred and seventeen owing subscribers,
as you will recollect. I have called upon
one hundred and four of them, and have
the honor of paying over to your order
three dollars and twelve and a half cents,
being the amount to which you are entitled.
I return you the list numbered 1 to 117,
and now give the reply of each.
No. I—ls a minister. He says, in the
first place, he never got one-half of the
numbers, and in the next plaoe your
joker’s column was too scurrilous. He
can’t think of aiding to sustain a paper
that advertises horse races and gander
pullings. Besides he knows from the tone
of your editorials that you drink, and
paying you would only be the means of
your ending your days in the kennel. He
wonders at your impudence in sending him
his bill after publishing the account of the
great prize fight.
No. 2—ls in jail for debt. He has not
seen a half dollar for one year. Says he
would pay with the utmost cheerfulness,
if he only had the money, but he had to
borrow a shirt to put on last Sunday.
Admires your paper wonderfully, and
hopes you will continue sending it to him.
If you send him any more papers, he
hope.s that you will see that the postage
is paid.
No., Jk—l- a young doctor. Says your
paperwlteneath the notice of a gentle
man. Would’nt give a for a cart
load of them. Says you inserted an
article reflecting upon the profession.
Cuss’d your bill, and says you may collect
it ihe best way you can.
No. 4—ls an old maid. Says you are
always making a fling at single ladies of
an uncertain age. Wouldn’t pay you if
she was rolling in wealth, and you hadn’t
as much cash as would buy a crust of
bread. Sent all the papers she had back
a month ago, and says now that Bhe sent
them back she dou’t owe you anything. —
Says she is even with you, and intends to
keep so tillt he last day of her life.
No. s—ls a gambler—a sporting gentle
mati Says he got completely cleaned out
last week at the races. Couldn’t accommo
date his grandmother with a half dime if
she was starving. Likes your paper
tolerably—would like it better if you
published more races, and would occasion
ally give an account of a chicken fight.
Likes the description of the prize fight
amazingly—it redeemed a multitude of
your faults. He is after a rich young
green horn who arrived here last week.
Will pay your bill out out of the.pluckings.
No. 6—ls an old drunkard. Hasn’t
got anything, and never expects to have.
Gathered up all the papers that he had
and sold them for a half-pint of rum to
the doggery keeper to wrap groceries in.
Wished you wonld send him a pile.
Winked at me when I presented your bill,
and inquired if I wasn’t a distant relation
of the man that butted the bull off the
bridge.
No. 7—ls a magistrate. Swore he
never owed you a cent, and told me I was
a low rascal for trying to swindle him in
such a bare-faced manner. Advised me
to make tracks iu a little less than no time,
or he would get out a warrant against me
as a common cheat, and have me sent to
prison. Took his advice.
No. B—ls a politician. Meant to have
told you a year ago to stop his paper, but
forgot it. Tells you to do so now, and
thinks you arc getting off very cheaply in
not losing any more by him. Believes
you to be a rascal, and is too honorable
to have anything to do with you, as it
might compromise him and injure his
prospects.
No. 9—Paid up like a man ! The only
one likes your paper first, and means to
take and pay for it as long as you publish
it or he lives ! Asked me to dinner, and
treated me like a king. An oasis in the
desert!
No. 10—Is a merchant. Expects to
break shortly—must save all his small
change. Offered mo a pair,-, of breeches
and a ootton handkerohief for the debt.—
Refused him with scorn. Threatened to
break my head.
Nos. 11 to 117—Had no money
wouldn’t pay—said didn’t owe.
I have not succeeded a whit better with
the patrons of the other publications for
which lam agent. I have expended two
hundred and ten dollars traveling, and
my entire commissions amount to eighty
two dollars and twenty-five cents. The
business don’t exactly suit me.
Please accept my resignation from your
list of agents. I admire your paper very
much myself, but it would be a queer
looking sort of a concern that would come
up to the requirements of everybody. One
wants independence in an editor—another
don’t want anything. One wants all
slang —another wouldn’t touch a journal
that contained an irreverent line with a
ten foot pole. One sentimental, lacka
daisical miss, in pantalettes, wanted noth
ing but love poetry —another never read
anything but the marriages.
All kinds of abuse I have to. bear, too.
I wouldn’t mind it so much if they only
cursed you and your paper, but they curse
me, too ! Swindler! rascal! blood-sucker!
—these are some of tho names they think
proper to bestow upon me. I tried fighting
for a while, and threshed several patrons
like blazes, but cccasionally I got lioked
like thunder myself. Once I was put in
jail for assault and battery, and only es
caped by breaking out.
Send me a receipt for the three dollars
■ and twelve and a half cents, and believe me,
Yours in despair,
Aaron Sweatwell.
Greatness. —A great, a good, and a
right mind is a kind of divinity lodged in
flesh, and may be the blessing of a slave as
well as a prince; it oame from heaven, and
to heaven it must return ; and it is a kind
of heavenly felicity, which a pure and virtu
ous mind enjoys in some degree, even upon
earth.
Reason loses the raoe, if it sits in medi
tation on the fence while competition rushes
by.
Those who excel in strength are not
most likely to show contempt of weakness.
A man doeß not despise the weakness of a
child.
Gen. Houston and the Ladies.
We extract the following paragraph,
addressed to the ladies, from the late
speech of Gen. Hooston, of Texas. It is
the most beautiful tribute to woman that
ever fell from the lips of a politician :
The Ladies—God bless’em. —Ladies,
I know that politics are always uninterest
ing 10 you, yet I believe you have in the
general result an abiding interest. It is
always a gratification to me to behold my
fair country women in assemblages like
these. It is a guarantee that their hus
bands and fathers and brothers are men
of Intelligence and refinement, who appre
ciate their mental capacities, and desire
their , countenance in their undertakings.
Your presence exercises a calming influ
ence upon those antagonisms, which are
too often engendered in the heat of politi
cal contests. All parties desire your
approving smile, and therefore all are en
couraged by your presence. I know that
in the direct administration of political
affairs you have no share : but yet, reign
ing as you do, supreme in the realm of
love, your influence often controls the
destiny of nations. Woman’s love is the
great lever which rouses man to action.—
The general, as tie plans the strategetio
combinations which are to ensure victory,
looks forward to a recompense dearer than
upon his brow ; the soldier, as
he trudges along on the weary march, or
mingles in the scenes of the battlo field,
even with death around him, forgets awhile
the carnage, and turns his thoughts to the
fond girl he left behind him ; the mariner,
tempest tossed, driven by the rude waves,
sings merrily aloft as he thinks of the
little cottage by the shore, where his wife
and dear ones await him; the statesman,
as he devises amid deep and painful thought
plans of government whioh are to tell
upon his own and his country’s fame, nev
er loses sight of the joys which await him
when cabinet councils are over and he
enters the portals of home; the sentinel,
as he paces his weary watch, loves the
moonlight tramp, that he may look beneath
its rays at the dear memento of a mother’s
or a sister’s love. Over man, in all his
relationships, the influence of woman
hangs like a charm. Deprive us of your
influence, which dignifies and stimulates
us to noble deeds, and we become worse
than barbarians Let it be ours, and we
brave the cannon’s mouth or face danger
in ten thousand forms. You stimulate
all that is good. You check in us ignoble
purposes. You have also an important
influence upon posterity. The early im
pressions which the child receives from
you out lives all the wisdom of later days.
Sages may reason, and philosophers may
teach, but the voice which we heard in
infancy will ever come to our ears, bearing
a mother’s words and a mother’s counsels.
Continue to instil into your children virtue
and patriotism. Imbue them with proper
veneration for the fathers of liberty. —
Learn them to love their country, and to
labor for its good, as the great end of
their ambition. Bid them proudly main
tain our institutions. Point them to the
deeds of their ancestors. Make these
their esoutcheon, and bid them hand it
down to their children as free from stain
as it came to them. Do this, ladies, and
your influence will not be lost in the
future. In the language of the poet it
will still bo said :
Woman ia lovely to the sight,
As gentle as the dews of even,
As bright as morning’s earliest light,
And spotless as the snows of Heaven.
Who Paid for the Kiss I—A stout
drover, on his way to a certain town, with
twenty or thirty beeves, passed by a far
mer’s house, in the front of whioh happen
ed to stand a remarkably buxom, blooming
woman, the farmer’s wife. Inflamed with
the sudden passion of admiration, the
dusty-footed traveler approaohed the mo
tionless beauty, and, not knowing how
else to enter into conversation, asked for
a glass of water. It was willingly brought
to him ; but, in returning the glass, he
suddenly threw his arms around her,
pressed her close to his heart and gave
her the most sonorous of unmistakeable
kisses. Which fury appeased, the rough
customer once more overtook his oattle.
The farmer was in a field not far off,
and, to oall him and make enraged report
of the proceeding, was the work of as few
minutes as possible. Instantly unhitching
the plow-horse, the injured husband
mounted and rode after the invader of his
rights, overtook and tempestuously accused
him.
The guilty purloiner was not going to
defend himself, however. On the contrary
he confessed humbly that he was in the
wrong —regretted that he could no give
back to thd lady the kiss he had so culpa
bly taken from her without her permission
—but pleaded for pardon on the ground
that the temptation was too strong for
human resistance. She was too beautiful!
Would not the wronged spouse compro
mise—say for five dollars, or so 1
Between the compliment to his wife
and the sight of the pocket book, the in
jured husband was mollified—took a ten
dollar bill—gave back a “ five,” for
change, and returned, thinking himself, on
the whole, no poorer for the transaction.
In which frame of mind he remained, till,
on bringing the ten dollar bill to light
again, for a purchase, a fortnight after
wards, he found that it was a counterfeit!
Five dollars for the kiss, but who paid it ?
The Lost Sheep. —A preacher of the
Methodist Ghuroh was traveling in one of
the back settlements, and stopped at a
cabin where an old lady received him
kindly. After setting provisions before
him, she began to question him :
“ Stranger where mought you be from ?”
“ Madam, I reside in Shelby county,
Kentucky.”
“ Wall, stranger, hope no offence, but
what mought you be doin’ way up here 1”
“ Madam, I am searching for the lost
sheep of the house of Israel.”
“John, John!” shouted the old lady,
“ come right here this minit; here’s a
stranger all the way from Shelby county,
Kentucky, a huntin’ stock, and I’ll just
bet my life that that tangle-haired old
black ram that’s been in our lot last week
is one of his’n !”

ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and is easily
adapted to every variety of family sewing, by simply
changing the spools of thread.”— Mrs. Elizabeth Strickland,
wife of Rev. Dr. Strickland, Editor New fork Christian
“After trying several differentgood machines, I preferred
yours, ou account of its simplicity, and the perfect ease
with which it is managed, as well as the strength and du
rability ot the seam. After long experience, I feel compe
tent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recommend
it for every variety of family Bewing.”—Jfr*. E. B. Spooner,
wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
“I have nsed a Grover & Baker Sewing Machine for two
years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of family
sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have been
worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The Machine
is easily kept in order, and easily used.”— Mrs. A. B. Whip

Editor of the Home Journal. c
Extract of a letter from Thos. It. Leavitt, Esq., an Amor
, lean gentleman, now resident in New South Wales, dated
January 12, 1858: t
“I bad a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which there
were over three thousand yards of sewing done with one
of Grover & Baker’s Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine.” , ,
“If Homer could be called up from his murky hades, he
would.eing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more benig
nant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan’s smithy. He
would denounce midnight shirt-making as ‘the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.’ "—Prof. North.
“I take pleasure in saying that the Grover & Baker Sew
ing Machines have more than sustained my expectation.—
After trying and returning others, I have three of them in
operation in my different places, and, after four years trial,
have no fault to find.”— J. H. Hammond, Senator of South
“My wife has had one of Grover & Baker’s Family Sewing
Machines for some time, and I am satisfied itjs one of the
best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I take
much pleasure in recommending it to the public. —I. Q-
Harris, Governor of Tennessee.
“It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of good humor. Wore I a Catholic, I should insist
upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holiday
in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity.”—
Cassius M. Clay. , . ,
“I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted from the finest cambric to the heaviest cas
simere. It sews stronger, faster, and more beautifully than
one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced, money
could not buy it.”— Mrs. J. G. Brown, Nashville, Tenn.

The subscriber having several hundred dollars of bills
of the Lancaster Bank, ia desirous of collecting them off
the stockholders, as the Bank refuses payment. Now, as
it is hard for one man to light a thousand, I take this
method of equalizing the expense, and hope all who have
Lancaster Bank bills will immediately send them to me
for collection, for soon they will bo worthless for the want
of attending to. It will cost from Five to Ten Thousand
Dollars to push the mutter through the Courts. I want
parties to send mo at the rate of Five Dollars to the hun
dred to pay Court charges, in good money, otherwise no
one cun afford to enforce collection, and the poor bill holder
will lose alt. The Bank failed November, 1850, and at this
date, August, 185‘J, it owes depositors slB3,ooo—owes out
standing bills sl76,ooo—has several hundred stockholders
who are mostly wealthy, and can be made to pay, first the
bill holders and then the depositors. I also And the Bauk
has about $50,000 owing it, which is good, but thoy are

hopes have been disappointed, crushed and blasted by false

ail who are in doubts of the affections of those they love,

affairs she never fails'. Sbe has the secret of winnlog the
affections of the opposite sex. It is this fact which induces
illiterate pretenders to try to imitate her. Bhe shows yon

Bbe has been the means of bringing many hundred hearts
