FEVER
A cup of wail', Norai - ' -
What ! do you cull this cool?
.It is like they were used to give us
In summer days at school !
Well, well, good soul—no matter;
It is all the same to me.
Raise the window just a little—
I can hardly breathe, you see.
It is the waltz of Weber
That the musicians play,
For fairest feet to dance to,
Over the way.
You need not light the candle,
But draw the stand to me, so
That I can easily reach it.
No—the fire is not too low,
Ah! I cannot eat! To-morrow?
If the Doctor thinks it best,
Must you leave me now? Good night, then,
Oh, that my brain could rest !
It is still that waltz of Weber
'1 hat the musicians play,
For merriest hearts to dance to,
Over the way.
How strange are tlie shadows, flitting
Around on the dusky wall!
But the fire in my hettrt grows stranger
And ghostlier than them all..
is that the town clock striking?
I think that it is to-night
My fever will reach its crisis;—
There are long hoursi yet till light.
Delicate, cooling ices
Are plenty this night in May,
For little red lips to toy with,
Over the way.
I wonder if she loves me
In her pride, and I so poor?
Yet I pour my life out for her—
Was that a step at the door?
It is only the night wind rising
With the waning moon. Ah me!
I wish I could see it glimmer
Through the dear old locust tree!
• Drooped are the shadowy eyelids;
And low are the words they say,
As the whispering waltzers pass them
Over the way.
Mother, at home, come, bless me!
Can you sleep when your boy in pain
Longs so for the touch of your fingers
To cool his feverish brain ?
Sing me to rest with the murmur
Of your hymn, with its holy tune—
In my broken dreams I heard it
Through the long, long afternoon.
Again that waltz of Weher
Sets heart and feet to play;
Whirling and thrilling and throbbing
Over the way.
eannot,hear much longer;
I have great, great work to do.
Wealth I must win for the dbar ones;
P,lme—How I wish I knew!
Perhaps, perhaps, she would love me,
It' she could but see the star
That will one day shine above me!
Ah, me! 'tie so very far !
The soft. white cheek is flushing
Is it often - so hot in May?
Talk they only party gossip
Over the way.
Quiet and gray was the gleaming
That brightened upon the wall;
For the merciful day was breaking,
And ale birds began to call.
But a rant .was chainged in the shadows
Of the early, lonesome dawn ;
And a pulse had ceased its throbbing,
And the fever all was gone.
But hushed was the waltz of Weber,
And weary that dawn in May,
The hearts and feet that danced so
Over the way.
[From the Family Journal. J
My First Appearance on any
Stage.
BY ONE OF THE SMITH FAMILY
In a former number of the Family Jour
.nal, I related' Why I am a Bachelor.'—
I have now another confession to make,
and were it not that my name, although
-an illustrious one, is rather common, and
that there are more people in the world of
'the name of John Smith besides myself, I
might hesitate in making the public my
confidant.
Well, then, I will at once make a clean
-breast of the matter. I have appeared on
the stage.. Don't imagine, gentle reader,
when I write these words that I am not
conscious of the enormity of my offense.
Alas ! I only know it too well.
When I think that I, John Smith, ex-.
grocer, was ever blockhead enough to ap
pear before a theatrical audience, my
cheeks blush with shame, and such an
appearance!—but let me not anticipate.
My object, dear reader, in telling you the
whole matter, is to obtain your - sympathy,
and I must beg beforehand that you will
not laugh at me. I have already gone
through the terrible ordeal of laughter
and derision, and ought by this time to be
steeled against it ; but it is a tender, sore
point, and were I not certain that the
readers of the Journal are kindly dis
posed and will not make light of my
misfortunes, I would proceed no further.
After my want of success in love, as
previously told, I grew unsettled •and
wandered about the city for days without
any particular end in view. 1 verily be
lieve I knew every clerk in the Broadway
stores, for I was accustomed to go and
price articles in every. establishment—not
with the intention of buying anything,
but simply to kill time. One day in the
course of my peregrinations 1 was attracted
by a large bill outside the - Broadway
Theater. Now, I had never been inside a
theater in my life. I had always despised
actors and plays. I was now, however,
attracted, by the large capitals, and
stopped to read the bills. I learned by
them that the play of King Richard 111
was to be performed that night. Ido not
know what evil genius possessed me—but
' I determined that I would see it.
I l went, and was delighted. It was a
new world to me—the lights, the music,
the company, all served to intoxicate me
even before the play commenced. But
when-the curtain rose my enthusiasm was
worked up to a high pitch. I did not
understand the language, but I understood
the fighting, and that was glorious. The
great American actor performed the part
of Richard, and it did my heart good to
see him rant and roar, and fume and fret.
Now, that's my idea of good acting—he
exercised his lungs and made the whole
house ring with his stentorian tones. But
at last Richmond came on the field, and
then my delight reached its climax. Oh !
how Richard and Richmond fought! How
they ran about the stage—parried here, and
thrust there ! And thenwhen the hunch
backed tyrant received his mortal wound,
, and g went into his flurry,' as your con
tributor Dick Spun-Yarn would say, what
a shout shook the house—it was a glorious
triumph.
I went home that night an unhappy man.
I felt that I must distinguish myself. I
was not content to remain plain John
Smith. I pined to be it ichmond. 1 felt
blood-thirsty. I wiptod to kill Richard.
I wanted to receive the plaudits of the
audience. I could not sleep that night.
1 rehearsed over and over again that com
bat—that glorious combat !
I arose in the morning unrefreshed, and
longed for night to come, that I might
again visit the theater. It came at last,
and saw me in the place I had occupied
the previous evening. My excitement was
as great as on the first night ; - and I re
turned home, dejected, miserable and low
spirited. Come what might, I determined
to perform the part of Richmond.
The next night; I summoned up courage
enough to call on the manager and lay my
case before him. When I stated my wish
ho 'first of all stared at me, and then burst
into a fit of laughter. hen, however, I
hinted to him about paying for ibe privi
lege, he stopped laughing and shook me
by the hand. It was finally agreed that
for the sum of $5O I was to perform the
part of Richmond on that night week.
That very night I set about studying
the part. It is not a very long one, and
I soon succeeded in committing it to mem
ory. Then rehearsals followed, and the
manager said I acquitted myself admirably.
I became quite proficient in my fencing,
and had not a .doubt whatever as to my
success.
At last the eventful day , dawned, and
I had the satisfaction of seeing in the
morning papers a statement to the effect
that the part of Richmond would be un
dertaken by an amateur, his first appeal
anoe on any stage. How I passed through
that day I know not. I kept repeating
my part to myself the whole time, until I
became what is called word perfect.' I
was al the theatre by 5 o'clock, and found
that the doors were not yet open. At
I.st the call-boy unlocked the charmed
entrance, and I was behind the scenes. I
had scarcely entered when I was accosted
by the costumer :
How about your dress, sir?' said he.
What dress ?' I replied.
Why, the dress for Richmond.'
6 I suppose I can get it from the theat
rical wardrobe ?'
Certainly, sir ; but I don't know that
we have got one that will fit you—you
know you are rather stout, sir.'
Well, that was a fact. I aw rather
stout—iu truth, L may say excessively
But you must find me a dress.'
6 Well, 1 will see what I can do, sir;
come this way.'
I followed him into the dressing-room,
and he hunted up the largest clothes he
could find.
I put them on, and with the exception
that they felt rather uncomfortably tight,
they did very well. I then took my place
behind the scenes and began to repeat toy
part to myself. I found that I remember
ed every word of it, and I had no doubt as
to my complete success. Ouce or twice I
peeped through a hole in a curtain, and
found that the house was filling very fast.
Having by this time' repeated the whole
of my part over, I thought I would prac- -
tice my fencing. While making a pass at
one of the side scenes, I heard a sudden
rent, and my unfortunate nether garments
were almost torn in twain. This was a
terrible catastrophe, and one that must be
immediately repaired. I ran to the cos
tumer and informed him of my mishap.—
He expressed himself very sorry, and
regreted that he had not another pair of
pantaloons in the wardrobe. that would fit
me ; but he suggested that there would
be plenty of time to repair them, as I did
not make my appearance till the last part
of the play.
I caught at the suggestion, and being
an expect hand with the needle, I deter
mined that I would repair the breach my=
self. The dressing-room was full, so I
could not go there ; but 1 found a retired
nook at the back of the stage, and divest
ing myself of the damaged garment, sat
down in my drawers on a stool under the
gas light, crossed my legs, and began to
sew vigorously, at the same time repeating
to myself my own various speeches.
I might have beeti engaged in this man
ner five or ten minutes, and the rent was
getting visibly smaller, when I heard the
rushing and rolling of scenes, and a sud
den glare of light shone on me, and a
shriek, a yell, a shout, such as might have
awakened the seven sleepers, greeted my
ears.
I raised my head, and to my horror I
found myself seated in the middle of the
stage, with the whole audience before me.
Yes, there was I, John Smith, ex-grocer,
divested of my pantaloons, trowsers, or
whatever they may be called, sitting cross
legged before an immense audience, and
the shouting, and the noise, and the yell
ing which greeted me, took away my self
possession„ I rose up from, my seat. I
cast my trowsers from me, and ran about
the stage like a wild man. And then the
yelling and screaming was redoubled—men
stood up in the pit and waved their hats
—women turned away their heads. I was
bewildered—demented—stark, raving mad.
I actually did not know how to get off the
stage, and I believe I never should have
got off, had not the manager come forward
and actually taken me away by brute
force.
I put on my clothes in, silence—l left
the theater with an inward resolve that I
would never enter the accursed building
again:
I have kept my word--that fatal night
was my first and only appearance on any
stage.
Imo' A lady subscriber of the,LouiSville
Journal wrote Prentice that she was
horrified at the indecency of his paper,
and s;ie threatened to set her foot on every
copy that came under her observation.
He suggests that she hadn't bettor do it,
as his paper had i's in it.
A man who had recently been
elected a major of militia, and who was
not over burdened with brains, took it into
his head, on the morning of parade, to
exercise a little by himself. The field
selected for the purpose was his own
apartment. Placing himself in a milita,ry
attitude, with his sword drawn, he ex
, claimed—
Attention, company ! Rear rank, three
piles, march !' and he tumbled down into
the cellar. His wife hearing the racket,
came running in saying :
My dear, have you killed yourself ?,
Go about your business, woman,' said
the hero ; what do you know about war V
117' There is high authority for odd

For Thu Intelligencer
YOU AND I.
Stella, dear, do you remember,
The day when first we met? -
'Twas in the bright and blithe September,
I think I see you yet;
There was such kindness in thy voice,
Such gladness in thine eye,
We soon became fast friends, Estelle,
You and I.
The Convent-school was our peaceful home,
We played within its walla,
Oft together we would roam
Thro' its dear and sacred halls;
The Chapel, too, with ita simple spire,
No Temple could out-vie,
'Twas there we knelt and prayed, Estelle,
You and I.
Oar youthful hearts were fall of glee,
Our path was strown with flowers,
The days passed on, I sigh, ah me!
To think of by-gone hours;
Those halcyon days have gone, alas!
We are happy in our constancy,
You and I.
Tho' worldly hearts have coldly turned
From the well-springs of our love,
We can bear to be thus spurned,
We'll not such ones reprove;
Oar hearts will closer intertwine
When death's cold hand draws nigh,
We hope to love in a kinder world,
You and I.

LANCASTER COUNTY, Feb. 11th, 1860.
A NEGRO DISCUSSION ABOUT EGGS.—
Geneva, the lovely village on Seneca Lake,
furnishes the following specimen of Par
liamentary ruling
In the fairest village of Western New
York the culled persons,' in imitation of
their white brethren, formed a debating
society for the purpose of improving their
minds by the discussion of instructive and
entertaining topics. The deliberations of
the society were presided over by a vener
able darkey, who performed his duties
with the utmost dignity peculiar to his
color. The subject for discussion on the
occasion on.which we write, was—
What am de mudder ob de chickens—
de hen wat lay de eggs or de hen wat
hatch de chicks I
The question was warmly debated, and
many reasons pro and cm were urged and
combated by the excited disputants.—
Those in favor of the latter proposition
were evidently in the majority, and the
President made no attempt to conceal that
his sympathies were with the dominant
party At length an intelligent darkey
rose from the minority side, and begged
leave to state a proposition to this effect :
Spose,' said he, dat you set one
dozen duel eggs under a hen, and dey
hatch, which am de mudder—de duck or
de hen ?'
This was a poser, was well put, and
nonplussed the other side, even staggering
the President, who plainly saw the force
of the argument, and had committed him
-self too far to yield without a struggle ;
so, after cogitating and scratching his wool
a few moments, a bright idea struck him.
Rising in his chair, with ail the conscious
ness of superiority, he announced:
' Ducks am not before de house ; chick
ens am de question ; derefore I rule de
ducks out ;' and do it he did, to the com
plete overthrow of his opponents.
EY" KATE L. E., writing on the subject
of kissing, says: "I am vain enough to pride
myself on being a girl of sense, and dearly
love and appreciate good kissing; indeed,
I should as leave have a nice sweet kiss
as a cashmere. It is to me one of life's
sweetest eujoyments ; some of my happiest
moments have been spent in kissing, A
rich, hearty kiss, from plump, rosy, mus
tached—or unmustaohed—lips, will last
one day." Miss Kate is evidently a young
lady of good taste and sense.
CO — A young man in Le Claire, Wis.,
was recently put under bonds of $2OO to
keep the peace for one year and one day,
for having tied a bell under the bed of a
young married couple. Served the nasty
fellow right! What business had he to
play such a naughty trick

K NICHICRISOCIKER MAGAZINE.
FIFTY-FIFTH VOLUME.
LOUIS GAYLORD OLARX, DR. JAMES 0. NOYES,
EDITORS.
The present number closes the fifty-fourth volume of
she KNICKERBOCKER, and while we thank our patrons for
their past favors, we shall strive to Increase their number
by - redoubled care and effort. in every &apartment ,of the
Magazine. We expect in our next number to be able to
announce a series of articles on Popular Astronomy, by
the most distinguished writer upon that science in the
land. `Stories and Pictures' of the Hudson will be com
pleted during the year, and the two volumed will contain
the beet sketches, tales, poems, etc., that ma be procured
for the entertainment of our readers.
PREMIUM FOR 1860
In order to increase the already large circulation of the
KNICKERBOCKER, we publish this month a splendid line
engraving of Frith'e picture of ' Merry-Making in the
Olden Time,' which we shall present exclusively to the $3
subscribers to the Magazine for 1860, whether old or new.
The subject represents the pastimes of our ancestors, and
is eminently of a genial, domestic character. The plate,
engraved in England at an expense of 2000 dollars, is
entirely new, measures twenty•five by nineteen and a halt
Inches in PIRO, contains thirty-nine figures, and is beyond
comparison the finest work of the kind ever offered as a
premium in this country. •
The engraving of Frith's picture of Merry-Making in
the Olden Time, represents the humors of an English holi
day in the county in those goal old times when the men
wore cocked-hate and knee-breaches, and the women stays
and hoops—a costume not essentially differing from the
corset and crinoline of the present day. Almost in the
centre of the picture and a little to the back-ground Is a
country dance on the green, with a hard-featured- fiddler
perched on a high seat, and another musician in a tie-wig
standing by him, playing with all their might. On the
right two bouncing girls are gaily pulling toward the dance
a gray-haired man, who seems vainly to remonstrate that
his ' dancing days are over,' while a waggish little child
pushes him forward from behind, greatly to the amusement
of his spouse, who is still sitting at the testable, from
which ho has been dragged. On the left, under a magnifi
cent spreading oak, aft the 'squire and his wife, whom a
countryman with his hat off is respectful* , inviting to take
part in the dance. To the left of the 'squire is a young
couple on the grass, to whom a gipsy with an infant on her
shoulder is telling their fortune. Over the shoulders of
this couple is seen a group engaged in quoit-playing, and
back of the whole is a landscape of gentle slopes and
copses. The picture has the expression of gayety through
out and the engraving is splendidly executed. It is fresh
from the burin of Hutt, not having yet been published in
England.'
TERMS.—Twenty-five cents per number, or $3 per an
num, in advance; two copies $6; three copies $6. The
postage on the Magazine (twenty-four cents per annum) to
be paid in all cases at the office where It is received.
