ARM AND I
Down on the elope the cow-bells tinkled :
Up in the trees the robin sung;
The bees bummed low, and Arri and I
Sat in the grape-vine there and swung;
Strange dark eyes and a tender face,
Set in the fairest golden hair—
A shy soft form of beauty and grace;
Saab was Arri beside me there.
We were children then, they balled us so;
And we set there under the summer noon,
Swinging listlessly to and fro,
And humming together a love tune;
The sycamore drooped its fan-loved arms,
And the russet tassels swung
Among the leaves like marriage bells
On the white twigs, silver hung.
A fair soft tress has slept on my heart
This many and many a day;
I have thought the heart might searaely beat
It' that were taken away;
Over and over 1. kissed it—so
Lay it out in the moonlight, there!—
It brings me back the strange dark eyes,
The tender face and the golden hair.
She gave it to me ono night in May,
Walaing under the full May-moon;
I was going away in a ship that night,
To some again in the next year's June;
1 have some again, but it is not June ;
Down on the slope the snow drifts high;
The winter moon shines clear and cold,
The trees are gray, aial. snam 1.
Moons have passed unremembered away
Since then ;--their lustrous orals
Have wound around the smiling earth,
Making night their spoils.
Many a May has passed away,
Many a June has sped;
Death and winter reign on the slope;
am here, but Arri is dead !
Across the path is a graveyard now ;
I can hear the church bells ring,
And white stones part the drifted snow
Close by the grape-vine swing;
The sycamore droops its long bare arms,
And the russet tassels swing
To abd fro like funeral bells,
On the dead twigs were they cling.
We are both here under the moonlight,
Where we walked so long ago;
Both, both are under the moonlight,
But one is under the snow.
Dark, eyes lie deep under snow and sod ;
Mold rests on the golden hair;
Deep, deep under shadow and grave stone,
Thick dust is gathering there.
Lust on the forehead pure and white—
... Dust on my heart so heavy and cold!
Tempest and rain and night have passed,
Over my life, so gray and old.
Many a night and many a storm
Have darkened the blue Pacific's flow,
I only remember one that passed
Down by the red equator's glow.
Passed with its sheltering wings of night—
We were left on a bleak; barbarian shore;
The burning tropical day ruse up,
And then I counted the time no more;
.1 never counted the burning years,
(Crossing the seas with their fiery tread)—
What matter to me if they went or name,
I was a slave, and she was dead!
How we got Cured of Love
BY ALFRED RANDALL
Ten years ago, we were (which is a
somewhat obvious fact o about half a score
of years younger than we are at the
present time of writing. If we have a
weakness, it is to tell the truth, which is
not always tul-led, as the bell-ringer above
the court house roof can instance, and
has once or twice exemplified.
Well, as we said, being some few years
lounger, we, were slightly tinged with
those sentimental and romantic fancies
which are almost inseparable from youth,
and, having grown tired of quill driving
for the columns of a daily newspaper in
the city of New York, reporting (and
when news was scarce,) inventing th
strangest kind of sensation items ; cob
bling them up in fact, or rather in shape of
fec s, we resolved. to spend a couple of
months, and some dollars we had in
reserve, simultaneously, upon the sea coast
and our individual pleasure.
Straightway we put on hairs, cultiva
ting a mustache till it mingled beauti
fully and bountifully with the enviable
curl of our whiskers—altogether our tout
ensemble, was a mingling of military dis
play, and an inward poeti •al temperament,
which latter unfortunately got. the upper
hand of us, as the sequel will prove.
One fine morning in July, having packed
up our traps, a lot of f,ols-cap to do the
poetry on, a boot-back, an undress fire
man's coat—when we should wishqo vary
our appearance by assuming a nautical
costume—a volume of Shakspeare, ditto
Byron, and of other eminent poets, which
are very bandy to suggest things when
the muse grows coy or skitti,h ; we
placed some tobacco in our trunk, and
some more in our merschaum, puffing
which, (we were in the habit of puffing)
with an expanded chest, we proceeded on
board the steamer Paragon,' bound to
- Newport, Rhode Island. Arrived there,
we took up our quarters at the Ocean
House.
It was a frame building with a spacious
piazza extending along its front; a num
ber of gentlemen in horizontal positions
were spread out on chairs, reading news
papers and yellow-covered literature, and
smoking cigars, as arduously as if it were
not a light pursuit ; lots of black servants
were hurrying to and fro, while carriage
drivers and express men, dashed in and
out with as much sang froid, as if they
were perfectly free of the building, it was
a motley and a curious scene ; and we
had become curious too, to know who a
very handsome young lady, with a pink
bonnet, blue eyes, and long fair hair, in
the quite adorable style, could be ; by
inspecting a card affixed to her trunk (not
body ).,we ascertained who she was, Miss
Araminta Sphinx, passenger to Newport,'
though, where under heaven, if not from
those ethereal' realms, she came was enig
matical. She handled her cup and saucer
between the points of her finger and
thumb with the thorough bred air of a
• lady accustomed to first-rate hotels, and
superlative society.
Passional attraction had been a myth to
us until that fatal hour, we could not help
rivetting our gaze on Araminta's glowing
beauties, until reminded of our own mor
tality by a half strangled attempt to swal
low the hot tea we had unconsciously
imbibed.
We passed a sleepless night, our
thoughts divided bet Ween the bewitching
Araminta, and the possible means of pro
curing an introduction to her. Sleep was
banished from our eye-lids, and issuing
from the camp-bedstead, in which we had
vainly sought repose, we pended the fol
lowing sonnet, as Shakspeare has some
where suggested, (we think, in his cele
brated seven ages) dedicated oro the
eyebrow of her we love.'
Oh! beautiful and enslaving brow,
iftvesping awn the lulled of her eye;
Eaeh traneed beholder, must (of coursej avow
RS influence, although he can't tell why.
Bay, Araminta—fair enchantress, say.
Art thou a mortal of this common world;
Or Neried bright as Naragansett's bay,
'thine hair so super-n2turally curled ?
For thee, I would resign the hollow world,
And 'mid the seaweed on this sandy shore,
Go forth where ocean's billows dark are hurled,
And a safe path for thy sweet feet explore !
As we oould'nt invent rhyme for any
more, we left off at this point with a note
of exclamation, and a mental profanity,
our midnight taper having extinguished
itself, like our verses, for lack of material.
The breakfast gong sounded like eelesi
astical music in our ears, as its invitation
to that meal re-echoed through the Ocean
House. We kept stationary near the door
of the apartment in whioh the main meal
was spread, watching more anxiously for ;
Araminta's approach, than numerous as
tronomers
have recently done for that of
the comet, fearing too, that she might also
be followed by a train of sparks, such :
being ordinarily the case—she came at
length and became seated—we did the
same on the opposite side of the table vis
a vis (which for the benefit of the uniti
ated, we translate, meaning we and her.')
During the progress of the e meal, we pro
duced, our poetic effusion of the night
before, and passed it across the table, say
ing we had picked it up in the hall, and
observing it was addressed to her supposed
naturally it was intended for her. After
perusing
it, she blushed violently, looking
more charming than ever, and hence com
menced our acquaintance.
I became,,irretrievably, over head and
ears in love, (a great depth, considering
the, length of these last named convey
ancers of sound.) We soon mentally and
mutually learned that species of tele
graphing which renders words almost
superfluous; a soft tender pressure of the
hand, a gesture, or a half suppressed sigh,
spoke volumes more than we (that is, I,)
had written of newspaper accidents for a
twelve month. The best of our original
poems were both select and selected ; and
many a moonlit night upon the lone sea
shore, or beach, did I expatiate to her
upon the beauties of nature so sublime
and wonderful, which she herself eclipsed.
One night, it is well recorded in my
mental almanac, ineradicably scorched
with a fiery remembrance upon my brain,
and its traces were visible on my knees
next morning, for I had gone down upon
them amid the moist sand and slippery
sea weed, to consecrate my protestations
to the adorable Araminta, calling on the
the moon, in the absence of a commissioner
of deeds, to witness my vows.
We are not writing editorially now, I
speak in the singular number, being suit
,
' able, for the events which transpired that
night were singular indeed—what maniac
rhapa•othes I uttered while pouring forth
my avowals, or what vowels were sacrificed
in my allegorical expressions, I cannot
call to mind, they are known however to i
and u, too well, we know y !
Suffice it to say, my suit was accepted.
Araminta was poor; but what mattered
that? I would not value a claim in the
richest placer in Eldorado county, Nifor
nia, in comparison, or consider alb jewels
of Golconda an equivalent to her affections
and the charms of her personal beauty;
she had only her inestimable self to bestow,
in earnest of which she transferred to my
keeping, a lock of her silky golden hair :
I pressed it to my lips and placed it on my
palpitating heart, little dreaming of the
falsity I thus embraced and cherished.—
Delirious with joy. I thought of love in a
cottage,' and manufaotured on the spur of
the moment, several dreadful accidents,
which were to provide our next month's
herrings and coffee. Alas ! I little antici
pated the dreadful accident which was to
dash the cup of bliss so rudely from my
lips.
We returned homeward, she the fascin
ating Araminta, leaning lovingly on my
arm. I parted from. her with a lingering
good night, and a farewell kiss, on the
corridor near her door, No. 39, and I
retired to sleep and indulge in visions of
a tantalizing description.
About two hours afterwards, I was sud
denly awakened by an infernal ringing of
bells, a sensation very much resembling a
belly full of smoke, pervaded me ; I gasped
for breath—tore open the door of the bed
room, and beheld flames issuing from the
panel-work, near Araminta's sleeping
chamber. Swift as lightning the dreadful
truth flashed upon me—the house was on
fire—thought and action were instanta
neous. 1 rushed to No. 39, burst open
the door, and hastily enfolding the half
awakened Araminta in the bed clothes,
caught her in my arms and sped down the
principal stairway. It was no time for
explanations or apologies, life depended on
dispatch—a life dearer than my own.
Without pause, I hastened along till I
had reached with my precious burden the
other side of the street. A crowd of
people flocked around us. Araminta lay
without feinting in a fainting fit. I gazed
upon her, rubbed my eyes—heard sarcastic
laughter from the females 'who supported
her. Merciful heavens ! what did I be
hold 1 The golden flowing locks were
gone, and in their place gleamed a bald
polished head, and in place of her ivory
teeth, nothing but toothless gums. .My
teeth chattered at the revelation. Her
first words were spoken in a state of semi
consciousness.
6 Oh ! Albert, dearest, I am ruined—do
save thy wig and teeth, $l2B, and no
insurance!'
I don't know, and I don't care what
people thought of me, I only thought of
the naked truth, as I aped along the street,
my nethet garment, (the only one I had,
streaming astern of me in the wind.)—
Everything else was swallowed up in the
other element with the Ocean House. At
length I reached another hotel, not so hot
as the one I had quitted en dishabille so
hastily—then like the readers of one of G.
P. R. James' late novels, I discarded 'the
false he(a)ir P bought a pair of unmention
ables, socks, boots, a great coat and cap,
shaved off my moustache and whiskers,
and went down to the pier head, there I
hired a fishing boat, and the day after was
landed at Staten Island. I proceeded on
to New York. My nearest friends did not
know me. They considered sea-bathing
disagreed with me.
I resumed my writings for the press,
hut of all the horrible adventures this
prolific brain has concocted, my own was
certainly the most horrible. It has ma
terially shaken my confidence in the sex,
the soft sex, some style them, don't
believe it, there's nothing soft about them.
I never meet a woman now but I doubt
her reality—expect every moment she
will take off a leg or an qm, or_ show me

somebody else's teeth. All my life up to
the period of this adventure, I have been
politically a W(h)ig. I could bear the
detested name no longer, and am now a
Union Democrat, slightly tinged with
southern proclivities, because down there,
complexion at all events is natui al.
This painful secret has been concealed
in our breast for years, but being a little
short of items this week, in conseqUence of
most of the fair people going to the
country, we concluded for the benefit and
(lije(a)difi,cation of our numerous readers,
to let them know, how we got cured of
love.'
From the School Monthly.
The Reward of Courtesy.
A TRUT, ACCOUNT
A few years since, on a radiant spring
afternoon, two men, who from their con
versation appeared to be foreigners, stop
ped before the gate of one of the large
workshops in Philadelphia, for the manu
facture of locomotive engines. Entering
a small office, the elder of the two men
inquired of the superintendent in atten
dance if he would permit them to inspect
the works.
You can pass in and look about, if you
please,' said the superintendent, vexed,
apparently, at being interrupted in the
perusal of his newspaper. He then scanned
the strangers more closely. They were
respectably but plainly clad and evidently
made no pretension to official dignity of any
kind.
, Is there any one who can show us over
the establishment and explain matters to
us I' asked Mr. Wolf, the older of the
strangers—' You must pick your own way,
gentlemen,' replied the superintendent;
, we are all too busy to attend to every
party that comes along. I'll thank you
not to interrupt the workmen by asking
questions.'
It was not so much the matter as the
manner of this reply that was offensive to
Mr. Wolf and his companion. It was
spoken with a certain official assumption
of superiority, mingled with contempt for
the visitors; indicating a haughty and sel
fish temper on the part of the speaker. 4 I
think we'll not trouble you,' said Mr.
Wolf, bowing ; and, taking his companion's
arm, they passed out.
6 If there is anything I heartily dislike,
it is incivility,' said i\ir. V 1 olf when they
were in the street. I do not blame that
man for not wishing to show us over his
establishment ; he is no doubt annoyed
and interrupted by many heedless visitors ;
but he might have dismissed us with
courtesy. He might have sent us away
better content with a gracious refusal than
with an ungracious consent.
Perhaps,' said the other stranger, we
shall have better luck here;' and they
stopped before another workshop of a simi
lar kind. They were received by a brisk
little man, the head clerk, apparently,
who in reply to their request to be shown
over the establishment, answered, 0, yes !
come with me, gentlemen. This way !'—
So saying he hurried them along an area
strewn with iron bars, broken and rusty
wheels of iron, fragments of old boilers
and cylinders, into the principal workshop.
Here, without stopping to explain any
one thing, he led the strangers along, with
the evident intention of getting rid of
them as soon as possible.
When they paused at a place where
workmen were riveting the external casing
of a boiler, the clerk looked at his watch,
tapped his right foot against an iron tube,
and showed other signs of impatience ,
whereupon Mr. Wolf remarked, 'we will
not detain you any longer, sir,' and then
with his friend, took leave.
That man is an improvement on the
other,' said Mr. Wolf ; but all the civility
he has is on the surface it does not come
from the heart. We must look further.'
The strangers walked on for nearly half a
mile in silence, when one of them pointed
to a humble sign, with a picture of a loco
motive engine and a train of oars under
neath. It overtopped a small building not
more than ten feet in height, communica
ting with a yard and workshop. Look,'
said the observer; here is a machinist
whose name is not down on our nat.'—
, Probably it was thought too small a con
cern for our purpose,' said his companion.
6 Nevertheless, let us try it,' said Mr. Wolf.
They entered and found at the desk a
middle-aged man, whose somewhat gamy
aspect and the apron round his waist show
ed that he divided his labors between the
workshop and the counting-room. We
want to look over your works, if you have
no objection,' said Mr. Wolf. It will
give me great pleasnse to show you
all there is to b eseen,' said the mechanic
with a pleased alacrity, ringing a bell, and
telling the boy who entered to take charge
of the office.
He then led the way, and explained to
the strangers the whole process of con
structing a locomotive engine. He showed
them how the various parts of the ma
chinery wore manufactured, and patiently
answered all their questions. He told
them of an improved mode of tubing
boilers, by which the power of generating
steam was increased, and showed with
what care they provided for security from
bursting.
Two hours passed rapidly away. The
strangers were delighted with the intelli
gence displayed by the mechanic, and with
his frank, attentive, and unsuspicious
manner. 6 Here is a man who loves his
profession so well, that he takes pleasure
in explaining its mysteries to all who
understand them,' thought Mr. Wolf. I
am afraid we have given you a great deal
of trouble,' said the other stranger. ' In
deed gentlemen, I have enjoyed your visit,'
said the mechanic, and shall be glad to
see you again.' Perhaps you may,' said
Mr. Wolf ; and the strangers departed.
Five months afterward, as the mechanic,
whose means were quite limited, sat in his
office, meditating how hard it was to get
business by the side of such large estab
lishments as were his competitors, the two
strangers entered. He gave them a hear
ty welcome, handed . chairs, and all sat
down. We come,' said Mr. Wolf, with
a proposition to you from the Emperor of
Russia to visit St. Petersburg.' From
the Emperor ?impossible !' Here are
our credentials.' But, gentlemen,' said
the now agitated mechanic, what does
this mean ? How have I earned such an
honor
'Simply by your straightfor ward courtesy
and frankness, combined with professional
intelligence,' said Mr. Wolf. Because
we-.were strangers, yon did not think it
necessary to treat us with distrust or
coldness. You saw we were really inter
ested in acquainting ourselves with your
works, and you did not ask us before
extending to us your civilities, what letters.
of introduction we brought. You meas
ured us by the spirit we sho*ed, and not
by the dignities we could have exhibited.'
The mechanic visited St. Petersburg,
and, soon afterviard removed his whole
establishment there. He had - imperial
orders for as many locomotive engines as
he could construct. He rose rapidly to
opulence. He has lately returned to his
own country, and is still receiving large
returns from his Russian workshops. And
alt this prosperity grew out of his unselfish
civility to two strangers, one of whom was
the secret agent of the Czar of Russia!
THE SCHOOLMASTER'S IN THAT BED.-
A correspondent of the New York Wa
verly gives the following as one of the
many, inoidents that befel a a boarding
round schoolmaster :
I had been teaching in Mason county in
this, the Sucker State, and this term was
boarding round. One evening, after school,
one of my little scholars stepped up to me
and said :
g Mr. Jones, father said you should come
home with me'
Very well,' I replied, and forthwith
set out for my patron's house, which was
distant some two.miles. Now be it known
that James McHarry, for such was his
name, had two daughteis—the pride and
envy of the whole community. I had
heard so much about them. It seemed,
however, that I was to be disappointed.
When we arrived I learned that the gala'
had gone to a party on the other side of
the creek; so I went to bed execrating the
luck which deprived me of seeing them
that night.
The night had well advanced when I
heard one of the girls come home, and
passing into the adjoining room, she
warmed herself before some coals which
were alive on the hearth. It seems the
old gentleman and lady slept in the same
room but I was not aware of it then.—
Having warmed herself she turned to
leave the room, when the old man spoke
—' Girls,' said he, the schoolmaster's
in your bed.'
Very well,' said Sarah, and, passing
through the room I' slept in, went up
stairs. About at hour had elapsed, when
I heard Judy, the other one, come. She
stood at- the door a long time, talking
with her feller,' then entered softly.
Disrobing her feet she entered the room
where I lay, in her stocking feet, carefully
undressed herself, and, coming to the side
of the bed, prepared to get in. Now it
happened that I lay in the middle, and,
turning back the clothes, she gave a shake
and said in a suppressed whisper :
Lay over Sarah.'
I rolled over and whipped the coiner of
the pillow into my mouth to keep from
laughing. In she bounced, but the bed
would squeak. The old man heard it
and called out
' Judy !'
, Sir,' was responded in a faint voice
from the bed beside me.
The schoolmaster's in that bed.'
With one loud yell, and ' Oh heavens !'
she landed on the floor, and fled with the
rapidity of a deer up stairs. She never
heard the last of it, I can tell you.
I.o Holmes, after telling that a dog
was shot for biting a woman's leg, said it
was a pity to shoot a dog with such fine
taste.
U Why is a man eating soup with a
fork like another kissing his sweetheart ?
Do you give it up ?
Because it takes so long to get enough
of it.
[l"' I wish,' said a beautiful wife to
her studious husband, ' I wish I was a
book.' c I wish you were—an almanac,'
replied her lord, c and then I would get a
new one every year.' Just then the silk
rustled.

THE NEW AMERICAN CYCLORZEDIA,
ITS AMERICAN CHARACTER
The New Cyclopedia surpasses all others in the space
given to our own country—lts natural features and re.
sources—and to American History and Biography.—Pram
the New York Evangelist.
ITS PRACTICAL UTILITY
It is a perfect treasury of knowledge, In all branches of
the arts and sclencee, in literature, history, biography and
geography.—From The Boston Pilot.
Pledged to abstain from doctrinal, sectarian, or sectional
discussions, it presents, soar as we have examined Its ar
ticles, both sides of controverted topics with reasonable
fulness and strict fairness.--.Arom The National Era.
Several eminent medical and legal authorities, both In
New York and Boston, furnish contribution/3 in their
respective departinents; and from a large catalogue of
writers, which we have been permitted to inspect, we are
confidently of opinion that such an array of talent and
intelligence has never before been combined in a !Ingle
publication of the American Brews—Prom The Lancaster
Eramin:r.
ITS FRESHI4EBB
Its freshness and general thoroughness give it a decided
advantage over any cyclopedia of its clam hitherto lamed
on either side of the Atiantic.—Frant The New York Time.
ErB CHEAPNESS
It will be, within the reach of all. Apprentices and
merchants' clerks can procure the work as well as anybody,
and with less coat to them (if they take it in nowhere)
than many of them expend nightly for cigars and beer.—

ORNAMENTAL Baratmors While it is well and proper
that Young Ladies and Gentlemen should be taught Music,
Drawing, Painting, &c., R is et the same time highly cul
pable, to neglect for these Branches, - the practical and
useful studies, which determine the intellectual status of
an individual. Thousands of Young Ladies learn a little
French, a little Music, &c., being ignorait of the plainest
principles of Grammar and Mathematics. An Education
is an injury rather than a benefit, If the mind be not
trained in the right way. Acquire first, if possible, the
solid Branches, and then the mind will be prepared fur the
Fine Arta.
Music—Vocal and Instrumental—Plano, Violin, &c.
In the department of Languages, the classes are practised
in oral and written exercises; and particular attention is
given to the pronunciation of the Language the student
may be acquiring.
Ladies can substitute Music for some other branches, if
they desire it.
The dosses in Mensuration, Surveying, and Leveling,
are practised In the use of the Quadrant, in Plotting, and
in other instrumente.
Particular attention will be given to the analyzing
of Milton's Paradise Lost, which is used as a Book of Pars
lug exercises.
A Normal Class will be formed, and special instruction
devoted to the Theory and Practice of Tenderer; and thus
affording all the advantages that can be given in any Nor
mal School; for the great requisites of a Teacher are to
have the qualifications, be able to discipline a school, and
be skilful in imparting instruction.
BONES or REFERENCE: Anthon's Classical Dictionary,
Smith's Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and
Mythology, Ramehornei Latin Synonyms, Blake's Biogra
phical Dictionary, Buttmenties Greek Grammar, &c,.. &c.
LECTURES: Lectures will be delivered at stated times
during each year; and the different Sciences elucidated by
suitable apparatus. Full seta of Geographical and Physi
ological Maps, and Moonier, are provided for illustration
and experiment
Drawees: Ladies and Gentlemen completing the course
of study, (three years) prescribed in the Catakerne, or
passing a thorough examination upon the different
branches taught, will receive a Classical Diploma. To
those who omit the Languages, a Scientific Diploma will
be given.
ACCOMMODATIoNS: The buildings (when the one now be-
Inc erected Is completed) will accommodate about one hun
dred boarders, besides a large number of day scholars.—
The rooms are large and well ventilated; and part of the
grounds attached are used for Calisthenic exercises.
