The following pungent and very spicy reminiscence of December, in "ye olden time," is too refreshing to be lost, notwithstandirig the number of its euphon iously-defective rhymes. It was written long ago— we know not by whom—and is entitled DECEMBER, &C., ETC. -. Sweet Susie Brown! my pretty one! I'm sure you must remember— If not for love—at,. least for fun— The sleigtuilde in December; When all the belles and all the beaux, • In spite of frosts would go forth, And squeeze beneath the buffaloes, Each other's hands, &c. How brightly streamed the Northern - lights Above the snowy ridges! How pleasant were the wintry nights Observed from country bridges ! Where "toll" is sought with such address, 'Mid laughter, fun and flattery; And lovers feel amid the press, Each ottNrls)learts, etc. 'Tie very singular and queer, Of all the mad devices, Love's flame should burn so bright and clear, 01 fuel formed of ices ; And yet we know, its flame, indeed, Most brilliantly will glow forth, When fanned behind a flying steed, 'Mid under furs, Ise. I'm sure you mind the village inn, The supper and the revel, How, in the general dire and din, Love shot his arrows level ; And don't forget how Henry Kidd Embraced you in the buttery; You kissed his lips—you know you did— And he kissed yours, etc. ~- And when the forfeits all were paid, How one old maid resisted, ' Until the younger ladies said,. A prude they all detested. 'Desist!'' she cried—the ancient Ann— Her modesty to show forth, "I'll never yield to any man My virgin lips, hc." The wintry winds, the homeward way, Blow chilly in Our faces; But, underneath our furs we lay, All snugly in our places; Onegirl upon the forward seat— The pretty. Nellie Satterlee— Declared Jack Frost had pinched her cheek, And Billy Frost, etc. Another, underneath her robe, (The buffaloes, not her dresses,) Fair Patience, with attendant Job— Detected in caresses— Sprang up, with angry, blushing face, Her innocence to show forth, But showed her curls were out of place, Her collar gone, Sc. And then the parting at the door! Its tender. mutual blisses! Sweet tips, from their abundant store, Gave to the poor in kisses! The parting word—the long embrace— Cupid's most dangerous witchery, Brought firo to many a boyish face, And raised sweet hopes, etc. Dear Susie Brown, save you and I. Of all that load of merriment, No other pair are left to try Love's latest, best experiment; And when the coming snows shall spread, Our mutual hopes shall glow forth, _May Hymen bless our nuptial bed, • Increase our joys, kc. .CHANGE FOR A HUNDRED. BY ALBANY FONBLANQUE It was market-day in a great noisy 'manufacturing town not many thousand miles removed from Lancashire, and the confines of that neighboring county so celebrated for the cuteness' of its in habitants. The railway had brought in 'thousands of people that 'morning, from all parts of the adjacent country, most for business, some for pleasure, some for a convenient mixture of both. Men came in to make money, and made it or not, according to circumstances; their wives and daughters came in to spend money, and found no difficulty in accomplishing their object ; other people came in for other purposes (as will appear before the conclusion of this faithful narrative,) and were equally successful in carrying them out. In the Exchange, merchants and cotton spinners, and brokers and agents thronged together, and were as busy as bees in a hive. What were they doing ~Ah ! that I cannot say. Hundreds of thousands of pounds, I am told, change owners on market day in this same Exchange, with out a scrap of writing, or _earnest to bind the bargain. Who can tell what great transactions were being clenched? Perhaps some one was buying up all the cotton in Liverpool ; perhaps the money was being found for some invention that will provide broad-cloth at sixpence a yard ; perhaps that vulgar-looking old fellow, to whom all are touching their hats, on account of his reputed wealth, is buying what he knows very well he never will be able to pay for; and who knows but that those sanctified individuals in white neckcloths are contracting for a supply of thread, bearing a lie upon its label, in order to cheat the poor seamstress of her due ? Such things are done, we know, thanks to that much-vilified tribunal—Her Majesty's High Court of Chancery. But we have little to do with the Ex change and those who frequent it. This great town—which is to be nameless, for certain-sufficient reasons—goes to dinner at 2 o'clock, eats a great deal of cold meat, and drinks a great deal of hot wine; and being a town of inferior organization, gastronomically speaking, is not afflicted with those frightful consequences from which any other town of more fashionable and dyspeptic habits would spffer. Conse quently, for about one hour after the time 1 have named, there is a lull in thttrans action of business ; and whilst the bees are on their return to their work, much shopping takes place. • The principal jewellers in this nameless town are Messrs. Elephant & Castle, and a goodly sight their shop-window affords upon market day, especially when the old year is at its gasp, and all the pretty pretties ' for a new year's gift are exhibited in glittering rows therein. So thinks an elderly gentleman from the country, a clergyman of the Church of England evidently, from his spotless white neck cloth, snug chin, and heavy gold seals that hupg, more majarum, after the fash ion of our ancestors, from his fob. There is a well-to-do creaking in his carefully polished boots, and a smile upon his ruddy cheeks that bodes well : he is altogether the sort of person at whose table you would like to have a place, and in whose will you would have no objection to find your name. Mr. Elephant (Castle, his partner, is at home) has a high respect for the cloth, so he bows profoundly to the clergyman as he enters, and his reverence, who is urbanity itself, bows to Mr. Elephant in return. , The jeweller is charmed. Polite ness is not a staple commodity in this nameless town. Great is its wealth , but the magic tuppence a week,' which in some other quarters is devoted to the ac quisition of manners, has been but spar ingly expended by the parents of ;the present generation of its denizens. Mr. Elephant knows a gentleman when he sees one; and sending his young man to wait 1 , ,..R0.p . ijstuar customer, attends to the stranger himself. The simple-minded pastor at once states his errand. Thursday is New Year's Day, and Mrs. Delcimer must have her accus tomed present. What shall it be Some thing useful, you know, and not very expensive, not more than thirty, or per haps forty pounds. It is pleasing to hear the good - man speak of money ! It is clear that he prizes it only as s the means of giving pleasure to others. Many valuable trinkets are exhibited for selection ; but are rejected with a corres ponding number of smiles by Mr. Delcimer, as trifles.' At last a very solid gold watch with chain and pendants, heavy and plain, fit for the wife of a bishop, is pro duced and approved. Fifty pounds is the price, and whilst Mr. Elephant's young man is finding a case wherein to pack it, the Rev. Blank Delcimer takes from his pocket a fat black pocket-book, and frcim its interior a bank note for one hundred pounds. He was just such a man as you would expect to have such a pocket-book, and such a pocket-book would not have been complete without such a large crisp bank note in it. There are some people, whose very tooth-picks proclaim their respectability. The Rev. Blank Delcimer was very sor ry he must trouble Mr. Elephant for change —Mr. Elephant would be only too happy to oblige him. Mr. Elephant could easily oblige him upon market-day. The respectable pocket-book, with pounds in small notes in it, is placed in one ample pocket, the new watch, in shining morocco case, is carefully deposited in another, and the reverend purchaser is leaving the shop politely as he entered it, when a young man dressed in the extreme of fashion— so far in the extreme as to be in danger of tumbling over the other side into the abyss of vulgarism, bustles rudely in, and runs against his reverence. The good man is not angry, only hurt ; stooping to pick up his hat which had been displaced in the shock, he furtively rubs his damaged chin, and upon recover ing himself recognizes the youth who caused the mischief. Why, bless my heart, Frank, what brings you here?' I've come to buy something for Sophy, sir ; but 1 hope I have not hurt you 1' No, not much ; but you should not be so impetuous. Are you returning by the four-fifteen train 1' Yes, sir, I think so !' replied the youth. Then we may as well travel together. I want to speak to you about the shooting over the glebe lands, so buy your baubles, my dear boy—buy your baubles—at once.' The dear boy lost no time, he selected a diamond S and opal necklet, broach and bracelet to match ; value fifty pounds, net cash—Sophy was a lucky girl !—offered a hundred pound note in payment and de manded change—not as his reverend ac quaintance had done, as a matter of favor; but as his right. There ! change that,' he said, and flung his note on the counter. Now it seemed to good Mr. Elephant that there could be no possibility of dan ger in changing a note even for so unusual an amount, when presented by a gentle man of Mr. Delcimer's appearance and manner—Mr. Delcimer !—why he might be an Archbishop! but this young Rapid with his hands thrust in the pockets of his pegtop trowsers, with his ballet-dancer pin, and his bird's-eye scarf, chewing a toothpick, with his hat cocked, was a very different sort of customer. He could not be a bad character himself—oh no ! did not the divine call him Frank,' and would he frank' any but respectable people L'ut young men will be young men, and sometimes keep very bad company. He might have been imposed upon himself.— So, the Exchange being near at hand, Mr. Elephant dispatched young Rapid's note to the master of that place to be scruti nized, pretending, all the time, that he was sending it out to be changed. The mes senger returned and whispered to his employer that the report was that the note was a perfectly good one, and he—rather ashamed of himself for having kept. his worthy customer waiting whilst he indulg ed in such unworthy suspicions—hastily changed the defaced note, and having handed the difference and Sophy's 'baubles' to Rapid, was bowing his customers out, when—oh that this pen should have to record it !—a policeman, all breathless with haste and excitement, dashed into the shop and seized the reverend gentle- man and his lively young friend by their collars, and I am sorry to add that the respecitability of the former dropped from him like a cloak, and he stood trembling, the very picture of a detected swindler. W—w—w—what's the meaning of this V gasped poor Mr. Elephant. Why, that you have two of the most notorious forgers in England in your shop —that's all,' replied the man in blue ; proceeding to handcuff his prisoners. Have you changed any notes for them Y—y--yes, t—two of a hundred a- piece.' They are forgeries then, the cleverest out. Here give them to me.' Mr. Ele phant obeyed mechanically. shall have to produce them at the police officer to make the charge—Hi! cab,' and the constable, having secured the darbies on his captives, thrust them into the cab, and having told the still confused jeweller to come along as quick as he could to swear agin them' drove off—where? Echo makes the usual response ! For never from that moment has Mi. Elephant set his gaze upon either of his customers; the pretended policeman who took them into custody ; the cabman who drove them away ; the watch ; .the jewelry ; the change, or the perfectly good Bank of England notes for one hundred pounds a-piece, with which their ingenious fiiaud was committed. SEIZURE OF IMPORTED CIGARS.—About 300,- 000 imported cigars have been seized by the U. S. Marshal, ,on the ground that false invoices were made out by the parties sending them from Havana.

IF " THAT COUNTRY IB THE YOST PROBPRICOUB WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE ORLATIBT RIWARD."-,BUCELANAN. LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 7,,1860. Life Upon a Railroad. There is an old saying that the friend ship of a dog is better than his and for many years, in my capacity as a railroad conductor, I have found the above to be true to a letter—but mind, I am not saying that I have no enemies. I undoubt edly have a few, and I don't think there is a man that lives but has more or less. A little kindness now and then to the many needy ones a conductor will find almost every trip over his road will not be lost, and he will, in many cases, find from his bread cast upon the waters' a return four-fold. Yet he must use a great deal of judgment in bestowing his charity upon even those he thinks entirely worthy of such bestowal. I will, in connection, relate a little incident by which a little kindness saved my life, and the lives of all the passengers on board my train. The Western Div:sion of our road runs through a very mountainous part of Virginia, and the stations were few and far between. About three miles from one of these stations, the road runs through a deep gorge of the Blue Ridge, and near the centre is a small valley, and there, hemmed in by the everlasting hills, stood a small one and half story cabin. The few acres that surrounded it were well cultivated as a garden, and upon the fruits thereof lived a widow and her three children, by the name of Graff. They were, indeed, untutored in the cold chari ties of au outside world. I doubt much if they ever saw the sun shine beyond their own native hills. In the summer time the children brought berries to the nearest station to sell, and with the money they earned they bought a few of the necessities of the outside refinement. The oldest of these children I should judge to be about twelve years and the youngest about seven. They were all girls and looked nice and clean, and the health ful appearance and natural delicacy gave them a ready welcome. They appeared as if they had been brought up to fear God, and love their humble home and mother. I had often stopped my train and let them get off at their home having found them at the station some three miles from home, after disposing of their berries. I had children at home, and I knew their little feet would be tired in walking would three miles, and therefore felt that it be the same with those fatherless little ones. They seemed so pleased to ride, and thanked me with such hearty thanks, after letting them off near home. They frequently offered me nice, tempting baskets of fruit for my kindness, yet I never accepted any without paying their full value. Now, if you remember, the winter of '54 was very cold in that part of the State, and the snow was nearly three feet deep upon the mountains. On the night of the 26th of December of that year, it turned around warm and the rain fell in torrents. A terrible storm swept the mountain tops, and almost filled the valleys with water. Upon that night my train was winding its way, at its usual speed, around the hills and through the valleys, and as the road bed was -all solid rock, I had no fear of the banks giving out. The night was intensely dark, and the wind moaied piteously through the deep gorges of the mountains. Some of my passengers were trying to sleep, others were talking in a low voice, to relieve the monotony of the scene. Mothers had their children upon their knees, as if to shield them from some unknown danger without. It was near midnight, when a sharp whistle from the engine brought me to my feet. I knew there was danger by that whistle, and sprang to the brakes at once, but the brakesmen were all at their posts, and soon brought the train to a stop. I seized my lantern and found my way for ward as soon as possible, when what a sight met my gaze ! A. bright fire of pine logs illuminated the track for some dis tance, and not over forty rods ahead of our train a horrible gulf had opened its maw to receive us ! The snow, together with the rain, had torn the whole side of the mountain out, and eternity itself seemed spread out be- fore us. The widow Graff and her chil dren had found it out, and had brought light brush from their home below and built large fires to warn us, of our danger. They had been there more than two hours watching beside that beacon of safety.— As I went up where that old lady and children stood drenched through by the rain and sleet, she grasped me by the arm and cried— Thank God ! Mr. Sherbourn, we stop ped you in time. I would have lost my life before one hair of your head should have been hurt. Oh, I prayed to Heaven that we might stop the train, and my God, I thank Thee !' The children were crying for joy. I confess, I don't very often pray, but I did then and there. 1 kneeled down by the side of that good old woman, and offered up thanks to an All Wise Being for our safe deliverance from a most terrible death, and called down blessings without num be‘ upon that good old woman and her children. Near by stood the engineer, firemen and brakesmen, the tears stream ing down their bronzed cheeks. I immediately prevailed upon Mrs. Graff and the children to go back into the cars out of the storm and cold. After reach ing the cars I related our hair-breadth escape, and to whom we were indebted for our lives, and begged the men passengers to go forward and see for themselves.— They needed no further urging, and a great many ladies went also, regardless of the storm. They soon returned, and their pale faces gave full evidence of the frightful death we had escaped. The ladies and gentlemen vied with each other in their thanks and heartfelt gratitude towards Mrs. Graff and her children, and assured her that they would never, never forget her, and before the widow left the train she was presented with a purse of four hundred and sixty dollars, the volun tary offering of a whole train of grateful passengers. She refused the proffered gift for some time, and said she had only done her duty, and the knowledge of having done so was all the reward she asked.— However, she finally accepted the money, and said it should go to educate her children. The railroad company built her a new house, gave her and her children a life pass over the road, and ordered all trains to stop and let her off at home when she wished. But the employees needed no such orders, they can appreciate all such kindness—more so than the Directors themselves. The old lady frequently visits my home at H—, and she is at all times a wel come visitor at my fireside. Two of the children are attending Achool at the same place. So you may see that a little kindness cost me nothing and saved my life. CLOSED FOR REPAIRS.-A good one is told of old Judge L . His Honor kept a demijohn of good old Jamaica in his private office, for his own comfort and the entertainment of his particular friends. The Judge had noticed for some time that on Monday morning his Jamaica was con siderably lighter than he left it on Satur day nights. Another fact had gradually established itself' in his mind. His son Sam, was missing from the paternal pew in church on Sundays. One Sunday after noon Sam came in and went up stairs rather heavily, when the Judge hailed him : "Sam, where have you been 1" "To church; sir," was the prompt reply. “What church, Sam 7" "Second Methodi,t, sir." "Had a good sermon, Sam ?" "Very powerful, sir ; it quite staggered me, sir." i‘Ah ! I see," said the Judge," "quite powerful, eh, Sam ?" The next Sunday the son came home rather earlier than usual, and apparently not so much "under the weather." His father hailed him with : "Well, Sam, been to the 'Second Meth odist' again to-day ?" "Yes, sir." "Good sermon, my boy ?" "Fact was, father, that I couldn't get in; church shut up and a ticket on the door." "Sorry, Sam, keep going—you may get good by it yet." Sam says on going to the office for his usual spirit-ual refreshment, he found the "John" empty, and bearing the following-: "There will be no service here to-day, this church being closed for repairs !"

From the _Author's Prqface. • _ "The wide and still spreading popularity of "Uwe THEATRICALS," or Private Histrionics. amongst the most fashionable and refined circles, together with the repeated calls for a form of Dramas or Plays, differing in their struc ture and effects from those of other works in circulation, have induced the Publisher to present this work, in which will be found, along with some original pieces, a large number of the plays, comedies and farces of the most popular Dramatists, from the days of Shakspeare to those of the present period ; all or most of which are compressed into one act, and into parlor scenes, or such as can easily be arranged by the ordinary household resources. It has been the particular study and aim of the compiler and publisher, to omit all sentences, words or allusions, such as could be in the remotest way objectionable to the most fastidious, and to retain the plct, the passion and the moral of each play, In such a condensed form as would render them an available, diverting and. elevating vehicle of amusement for the Parlor, the School-room, or the Ly ceum. From the Sunday Atlas. BOOK OF PLAYS, for Home Amusement. By Silas S. Steele, Dramatist. These popular parlor amusements have been the means of introducing some very pretty little dramas to those who, from a religious notion, eschew a theatre, and legitimate dramatic representations. There are few writers in our country better calculated to write, compile, and adapt plays for Parlor Amusements, than Silas S. Steele. Author himself, of over eighty plays, every one of which bears the impress of a master band ; and containing a moral, which few authors deem regnisite for a drama. Perhaps a more perfect work of the kind is not to be found at the present time in the world, and it certainly reflects the highest crndit on the author and publisher in the production of the one in question. The insipid trash. and nonsensical charades, and drawing-room dramas, which we have seen and heard, most now yield to something morn elegant, refined, interesting and amusing. Silas S. Steele's " Book of Plays for Home Amusement," will form a new era in this description of domestic dramatic literature, and create a taste to witness those productions from which he has culled out only a scene or two.
