ence
Midragb!„past ? Not a sound of aught
Through that silent house but the wind at his
. ,prayers.
I sat bythe dying fire and thought
Of the dear dead woman up stairs,
Nobody with me my watch to keep,
But the friend of my bosom, the man I love;
And grief had sent him fast to sleep
In the chamber up above
Nobody else in the country place,
All round, that knew of my loss beside,
But the good young priest with the Raphael face,
Who confessed her when she died.
* l* *
On her cold dead bosom my portrait lies,
Which next to her heart she used to wear,
Haunting it o'er with her tender eyes,
When my own face was not there;
* A , * * * *
And I said, ‘"lhe thing is piecious to me:
They will bury her soon in the church-yard clay
It lies on her heart, and lost must bo,
If I do not take it away."
a ek * * * *
As I stretched my hand I held my breath;
I turned as I llrew the curtains apart,
I dared not look at her face of death;
I knew where to find her heart.
I thought at first, as my touch fell there,
It had warmed that heart to life with love ;
For the thing I touched was warm, I swear,
And I could feel it move.
'Twos the hand of a man, that was moving slow
O'er the heart of the dead—from the other side ;
And at once the sweat broke o'er my brow ;
"Who is robbing the corpse?" I cried.
Opposite me, by the taper's light,
The friend of my bosom, the man I loved,
Stood over the corpse, aid all as white,
And neither of us moved.
"What do you here, my friend ?" The man
Looked first at me and then at the dead,
"There is a portrait here," he began;
"There is—it is mine," 1 said.
Said the friend of my bosom : 'Yours, no doubt,
The portrait was, till a month ago,
When this suffering angel took that out,
And placed mine there, I know."
"This woman, she loved me well," said I,
"A. month ago," said my friend to me;
••And in your throat," I groaned, "you lie!"
He answered : "Lot us see." -
We found the portrait there in the place;
We opened it by the taper's shrine;
The gems were all unchanged—the face
Was neither his nor mine.
"One nail drives out another, at least!
The face of the portrait there," I cried,
“Is our friend's, the Raphael-faced young priest,
Who confessed her when she died.'
IS IT A SIN TO DANCE ?
SMOKING AND DANCING
A man may puff his life away
Upon a vile cigar;
May chew the vile tobacco weed,
Yet be a shining star;
A chosen one, whose ample head
Has felt a brother's touch,
Compared with whom in wisdom ways
A laymen is not much.
But if a girl should spend an hour
In whirling in the dance,
Her star is set for evermore,
She's sentenced in advance.
They wait not till the judgment day,
These more than learned divines;
While hugging thoir tobacco box,
They sweep away their shrines.
They bow down to their idol weed;
She dreams her dancing dream;
The mote is in the brother's eye,
The sister has the beam.
some laymen, with curious mind,
Tho' filled with little light,
May see an inconsistency,
And pick out wrong from right;
To such, the dreadful sentence pasted,
By learned and gracious seers,
Upon a sprightly, jumping girl,
In justice's rank appears;
And one there is will yet defend
And take the dancer's part,
Whose only sin is to show out,
The feelings of the heart.
Be will maintain, tho' graver heads
Should look on him askance,
The scriptures in no part proclaim
It is a sin to dance;
But all who glance upon their page,
These golden lettere see—
That mercy I to others show,
That mercy show to me,
The Scriptures have no single word
The smokers can advanoe.
While they record the cheering fact,
There is a time to dance.
The incense from a vile cigar
Must reach some idol throne,
How keen our eyes to others' faults!
How blinded to our own!
THE CZAR AND THE SCEPTIC.
It was in 1829. Government despatches
affirmed that Diebitsch's army had achieved
a'great success, and that Silistria was in
their hands.
But official news is not always implicitly
believed when and where unofficial news
mongers are gagged.
g Holy - Russia forever ! the troops are
in Silistria.'
6 Before it, you mean to say.'
Before it ! inside it ; I say what I
mean.'
Inside it ! outside it ; under correc
tion still.'
Correction you may well say. I repeat
it, inside.'
And, I repeat it, out.'
I have seen the despatch.'
'What? the government version ?'
The government, to be sure.'
'Nothing less sure, I assure you.'
What ! less sure than the government
story
All stories may be told two ways.'
But one way is true, the other false.'
Precisely, and I mistrust the latter.'
But the real truth is, the troops are
in.
The real truth is, the troops are out.'
'ln, I say.'
g Out, I say.'
And so on, ad infinitum.
In private saloons, in cafes, at table
d'hotes, on change and on the Perspective-
Neskoi, might such wranglings have been
heard. In the Gastinnoi-Dv or, and in the
vodki shops, there was more unanimity.—
The black people's' wish was less doubt
fully father to their thought ; with their
unquestioning as well as unquestionable
patriotic prejudice, holy Russia must have
won, and Diebitsch must, for certain, be
holding Silistria for the Czar.
There was a French gentleman, Mon
sieur De la Jobardiero, whose mistrust of
official bulletins had, pertaps, not unrea
sonably, grown with his growth. Russian
Invalids, Northern Bees, or whatever may
have been, in 1829, the accredited organs
of the Imperial Government, were to his
mind, so many miserable imitations of his
native Moniteur, the feebleness of whose
inventions, however, as compared with
those of that great Gallic organ of men
dacity, consisted not in the absence of
mendaciousness. Monsieur De la Jobar
diere was, himself, very much , spilt, fres
repandu,' in certain social circles of St.
= Petersburg, to borrow an image from his
own.yernacular vernacular , and thus it came taros,
that being gifted, as is not unusual
amongst his fellow-countrymen, with a
considerable flow of words, he was enabled
to spill the ink of denegation far and wide
upon the spotless page, of these same dis
puted Government despatches.
Hold it to yourself for .said, my good
friends,' he would insist; 'your govern
ment wishes to throw you the powder in
the eyes. It is one canard, one duck—
how you say?—this great news of Silistria.
That poor sir of Diebitsch, he kick his
heel, what ? outside still ; and the Turk
be safe and snug inside, as one rat in a
cheese, eh?'
Now, De la Jobardiere had his entries
in saloons' diplomatic,' as he would him
self have said ; and was, altogether, a man
who, chatterbox d he was, might yet be
supposed to have access to certain chan
nels of authe,ntio information, at which the
vulgar of St. Petersburg might not easily
slake their thirst for information. His
constant and confident affirmations of the
falsehood of the victorious intelligence
were not without a certain effect within
the radions of his own social effusion,'
and perhaps beyond it.
Monsieur de la Jobardiere was a precise
and somewhat ornate dresser ; he was a
I chilly personage, in spite of his longish
residence in the northern capital; he was
also somewhat of a gastronome, particu
larly as to the quality and regularity of
his meals ; he was, moreover, a sound
sleeper.
So sound, indeed, that the heavy boot
tread of the feldjager, that, hybrid be
tween a police officer and a government
courier, failed to break his slumbers on a
certain night ; nor was he roused from
them till that functionary's rude hand had
shaken his shoulder for a third time.—
Thereupon he started up to a sitting pos
ture and unclosed his eyes, which closed
again with sudden blink at the glare of the
lantern which the feldjagei's other hand
almost thrust into his face.
Look sharp, sir!' said that official,
and come along.'
Come along, indeed ! You are pleas
anting, my-good fellow,' quoth the sleepy
Frenchman.
Well, then, if you won't,' retorted the
ruthless invader of his slumbers, my
orders are positive ;' and he transferred
his paw from the shoulder to the throat
band of Monsieur de la Jobardiere's night
dress.
Laissez donc, grand brutal !' exclaim
ed that worthy. Let me at least get on
my pantaloons ;' and he inserted his feet
into the slippers by the bedside.
4 But, by fatality," as he always said,
my cossack of a domestic, Ivan Petro
vitch, had assisted at my dishabille, and
had taken my clothes out with him to
brush before I should rise of great morn
ing' the next day. Let me nut"
my do
mestic, at least ?' he inquired of the
stolid feldjager.
Ring bells and resist authorities l' he
growled : Come, come, sir, none of that.'
And again his rough, red, hairy paw
was busy in proximity with the white
throat of the finicking Frenchman.
Quick, march ! and not a word, or—
'But it is unheard of, it is an infamy, a
barbarism, an indecency !'
The scowl darkened upon the feldjager's
unprepossessing countenance ; it was more
than evident that expostulation and
entreaty were alike in vain.
Happily that I lose not my presence of
mind in this terrible crisis, and draping
myself hastily in the sheets and blanket,
and eider-down quilt, I yield to destiny
and follow that coquin of a feldjager
down stairs, gentlemen ; my faith ! yes
down stairs to the porte-cochere. There
what find we 1 A telega, kibitka, tarantass,
what do I know Some carriage of mis
fortune at the door, with its own door
open, eh ?'
It was even so. The night was very
dark and foggy ; the rays from the car
riage lamps added to the gleam of the
feldjager's lantern, gave but a dim light
after all ; but such as it was, its scintilla
tions were reflected from the steel scab
bards, spurs, and horsebits of a mounted
Cossack on either side ; and, dark amidst
the darkness, the open carriage door
yawned after the fashion of a tomb.
Oh ! by example,' once more did De
la Jobardiere attempt to remonstrate, turn
ing round, here is what is a little strong.
Do you figure yourself that I—'
He had one foot upon the carriage steps
already, and one hand on
. the handle by
the doorway ; a muscular grip seized his
other elbow. In an instant he was hoisted
and pushed forward in, and the tail of the
quilt was bundled in after him ; and he
felt-that some one had vaulted on the front
seatoutside.
Houpp la !' cried a hoarse voice ; and
three cracks of whips, like pistol-shots,
made answer ; and, with a bound and
plunge, the carriage darted onwards. He
could hear the splashing gallop, through
the slush and mud, of the mounted trooper,
on the right hand and on the left.
I try the windows, on this side, on
that, in front, and I am quits of it for my
pain. No means ! I scream, I howl, I
cry, I threaten that pig of feldjager that
must bear in front. The embassy French
shall have reason of this outrage ! " When
I tell you that I am not one of your
nationals, bet a F-r-r-rench, then I tell
you, eh 1 Useless I—l pass to entreaty.
Hear there, Ivan, Stephen, Nicholas,
Sergius I my corporal, my sergeant, my
lieutenant-of police ! here is one billet i gf
bank—that is to say, not here, but there ;
in the pocket of that pantaloons at home
on the Morskara, you comprehend. A
billet of twenty-five roubles—of fifty—of
a hundred—say, howl'
Again useless. Not a word—not a
sign—he makes the 'deaf ear, that polis
son de. la police' outside. _
It is stronger than me. I am trans
ported again of rage, of despair. I strike
of the fist, of the feet, of the head at last,
against the pannels of that carriage
atrocious. Derision ! My efforts deeper
sting about to nothing. That minion of
a despotism brutal mocks himself well of
this agony. I have : disarranged my
drapery; and currents . of air from the
underneaths of doors give my legs trances
of cold.
There is no remedy. I envelop myself
once more of my eider-down, and resign
myself to my destiny. I comprehend at
last ; all is lost for me. I see the Boule
vards and the Champs Elysees no more.
I Adieu, Belle France ; I share the fate
of the prisoners of the Moskowa, the
destiny ingrate of the Olds of. the Old.
No means now. to mistake oneself ; I am
en route for Siberia. •Unhappy that I am!
" THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PRORPNROIIB WHIRR LABOR
LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 6, 1860.
If at least I could have come in pantaloons.'
Even those that have traveled them
under more auspicious circumstances than
the luckless De la Jobardiere, have borne
witness to the terrible condition of the
Russian roads, between late autumn and
early winter. Bolt and bump, and thump
and crash, swinging to this side and sway
ing to that ; with one wheel churning the
liquid mud in a rut as deep as to the
felloe, and the other apparently revolving
in the empty air like the windward paddle
wheel of a sea-going steam-packet in the
trough of a rolling wave. Then a pitch
and toss, fairly up and down, stem and
stern, as if over a chopping sea, but petri
fied. Endless were the miseries endured
by the victim inside the closed carriage,
on cushions of which the hardness did not
fail to make itself felt even through such
folds of the eider-down as could be spared
from the protection of the lower limbs
from the pen-knife-like currents of air
which came through the door chinks.
How the feldjager kept his hard perch out
side was a marvel to the man in his
custody.
They must have strapped him with a
leather, or corded him to the bench for
sure, that detestable Cossack !' thought
De la Jobardiere, when he could spare a
thought from his own deplorable condition.
How long this voyage lasted, he was never
able to calculate. He lost all account of
days in his excitement of agony and des
pair. The same chinks which let in the
mrial currents did indeed tell something
of diurnal revolutions ; for at one time
they could be seen to admit some light
giving rays, at another time only felt,
thanks to those keen draughts which they
admitted. There were no stoppages, ex
cept such momentary delays, fabulous in
the shortness of their duration, as were
necessary for the busy fingers of experi
enced post boys to harness the horses,
which were always to be heard neighing
and snorting in readiness as they dashed
up to the relays.
There was a sort of a little trap or
window—unglazed, however—in the front
pannel of the carriage, through, which
,the
red and hirsute paw put in a ration of
brown biscuit, together with a little flask
of vodki, and a mug of water now and
then.
It was messieurs, one terrible burning
worse as the wiski ' of the old Ireland,
eh ? Sometimes, of night, too, for it make a
black of wolf, zin noir de Loup,' as we say
in France, he just open, half open, the car
riage door, this Cossack, and put in one
bowl of stchi,' with a spoon. Do you
know what this is, one 'stchi?' A soup
to cabbage, but with such seasonment !
A ragout of barbarous, I tell you, to make
a scullion cry ! Well, I so hungry, I eat
it, I devour it, I lick the spoon. Imagine
you, I De la Jobardiere, who was other
times redactor, editor—what you say ?
of the Journal of Gourmands' of Paris !'
On, and on, and on, through the dark
ness, mitigated or unmitigated by the',
kindly admissions of the chink ; on and
on, till all the reckoning of his time was
utterly confused.
But all things have an end on earth
here ; and at last the carriage came to a
dead stand-still, with its half-dead passen
ger inside.
It was at least as raw and as cold, as
foggy and as disagreeable a night as that
of the departure from St. Petersbnrgh,
when, for the first time, the carriage door
was opened wide. Right and left stood a
tall figure, indistinct in grey capote, with
flat muffin cap to crown it ; but the reflect
ed light ran up the barrel of a burnished
musket. In the open door-way of a house,
whence a red glow as of a cheerful fire
came streaming out, stood another martial
figure in cocked hat, with feathers, and a
green uniform with aiguillettes of an aid
de-camp. He raised his hand to the
cocked hat in question after the military
fashion of salute.
Deign to descend, Monsieur.'
I am then at Tobolsk
Of none, Monsiehr, to the contrary.'
'Where then ? at Irkutsk I'.
Still less, Monsieur, Pray give your
self the trouble to descend.'
I am hardly in that costume,' objected
De la Jobardiere, for that brutal of a
feldjager—'
Obeyed, I have no doubt, his orders
to the letter. Pray, Monsieur, descend,'
insisted the plumed aid-de-camp, with
imperturbable gravity.
This, then, is at last Siberia
Siberia, Monsieur ! By no manner of
means.'
Bat where on earth, then, have I the
misfortune to find myself—excuse me—
the honor to make your distinguished
acquaintance V
I have the distinguished honor,' said
the staff-officer, unwilling to be outdone in
politeness by the Frenchman, to receive
Monsieur at the grand guard of the head
quarters of his Imperial Majesty's army
in Turkey, with the enciente of the citadel
of Silistria.'
Peste !' exclaimed De la Jobardiere,
I begin to comprehend.'
Possibly,' quoth the aid-de-camp.
May I once more trouble Monsieur to
descend V
This last word was in a tone which
admitted of no trifling.
With a mournful consciousness of the
ludicrous appearance he presented that
almost overpowered the weariness, the
anxiety, the indignation which possessed
him, De la Jobardiere stepped out of his
flying prison van, and followed the aid-de
camp into the guard-room. There, by a
solid deal table,stood the feldjager, whose
snub nose and scrubby red moustache were
henceforth indelibly impressed upon his
captive's memory. An officer, whose
bearing and appearance would, without
the stars and medals upon his breast, have
given to the most careless observer indi
cation of high military command, was
reading a dispatch, apparently just handed
to him by that functionary, the envelope
of which the had carelessly- thrown upon
the tablej ' .
" A son Exc.
" Le Mareohal Dieb—."
was all that, in his confusion, De la Jobar
diere was able to spell out.
Monsieur De la Jobardiere, I presume !'
said this officer with a glance of inquiry,
but of perfect gravity.
The same, Monsieur le Marechal,"
faltered the owner of the appellation.
What officer, has the grand rounds to
night?' he next inquired, turning towards
a group of officers in the background.
'Major Razumoffski, of the Orenburg
artillery brigade,'_ i answered one of their
number, with the steetidomed'salute.
g "le he mounted V
And at the door, General.'
Let one of his orderlies dismount, and
let Monsieur De la Jobardiere have his
horse.'
But consider a little, Marechal, this
costume—or may I say the want of it—'
Is no doubt, a regretable circumstance,
air ; but orders, sir, superior orders,
excuse me. The grand rounds should be
starting—you will be good enough to
mount, and to accompany the major.'
There was no help for it; that stolid
feldjager was holding the dismounted
trooper's nag at the door with unmoved
countenance. Upon the less impassible
trooper's own Tartar physiognomy, how
ever, was something like a grin. A frown
from the feldjager suppressed it, as poor
De la Jobardiere scrambled into the sad
dle, and endeavored to make the best
arrangement of the blanket possible, to
keep the damp night air from his bare shins.
The quilt he clutchefl convulsively round
him with his right while the left tugged
at the bridle of his '-;rough and peppery
little Caschkir steed. It has a.very wide
enciente, that fortress of Silistria , and
the major likewise visited several outlying
pickets. He rode at a sharp pace from
post to post, and the roads, streets, and
lanes were execrable.
Equitation is not my forte, yon know,
my good friends ; and a Tartar trooper's
saddle, that is something—oh ! to be felt
is to be known. It was a long agony,
that nocturnal ride.' I thought it that
little thing near as as long as that deso
lating journey of jolts to Silistria.
,Day
Was begining to point, as we, drew up
once more to the guard-room door.'
The Frenchman shuddered on perceiv
ing that the carriage with nine horses,
harnessed three abreast, stood ready there
as they rode up.
The Marshal, said the polite aid-de
camp, his first acquaintance, bids me to
express to Monsieur that he is desolated
not to have the opportunity of offering to
Monsieur such poor hospitality as the
head-quarters of a captured fortress can
afford. But Monsieur will understand the
importance of taking to the foot of the
letter,' as his countrymen express it,
instructions—superior instructions, he will
comprehend. The military code upon
such a point is absolute. And I have the
honor,' with a significant gesture towards
the gaping carriage door, to wish Mon
sieur a bon voyage.'
Bang! went that odious door again;
again was the weight of the clambering
feldjager felt to disturb the equilibrium
of the carriage for a moment ; again did
the hoarse voice shout, " Houpp la !' again
did the three whip-cracks emulate the
sharp reports of pistol-shots; again the
carriage darted onwards ; and again might
be heard through slush and mud the
splashing gallop of the mounted trooper,
right and left.
Ist by let the tale of De la Jobardiere's
misery be twice told All, all was the
same as before. The bumps, the thumps,
the bolts, the crashes, the • pitching and
tossing, the swaying to-and-fro, the cur
rents of air, the darkness and the strug
gling rays of light, the bits of brown
biscuit, the sips of vodki, the occasional
bowls of stohi—all were repeated—all,
as before, jumbled and confused together
in sad and inextricable reminiscence.
But when the carriage stopped again
for good, and when its door was once
more opened Wide, the portico was loftier
and the staircase of wider sweep than at
La Jobardiere's own hotel door on the
Morskaia. It was night again, and it was
again damp, and cold, and foggy ; but a
clear illumination rendered unnecessary
the lantern of the feldjager or the glimmer
of the carriage lamps. Within the door
way on either side stood in full dress
uniform two non-commissioned officers of
the famous Preobajenski Grenadiers.
A gentleman in a full-dress cut-away,
with black satin tights and silk stockings
to correspond with broad silver buckles in
his shoes, a chain of wide silver links
round his neck, a silver key on his left
coat-tail, and a strait steel-handled sword
by his side, bowed courteously to De la
Jobardiere, and begged him to follow him
up stairs.
Treading noiselessly upon velvet-pile
carpets, he led the way through a spacious
ante-room, into an apartment where all
the light was furnished by a lamp with a
ground glass shade, which stood upon a
bureau strewn with books and papers, at
which a stately figure in undress uni
form was writing busily. Although its
back was turned, the breadth of loin and
shoulder, the length and upright carriage
of the back,; the powerful but graceful
setting upon the neck of the well formed
head, all revealed at once and beyond a
doubt to the astonished Frenchman in
what presence he stood.
The usher advanced, bowed, spoke a
word at the stately figure's ear, bowed
again, drew back, and left the room.
The Czar wheeled round his chair, half
rose, and made a dignified half bow. Poor
De la Jobardiere folded his eider-down
around him, and made a profound obeis
ance.
' Monsieur De la Jobardiere,' said the
august personage with just the least
suspicion of a smile curling the corners
of his imperial lip, lam informed that
you have recently visited Silistria.'
An obeisance, deeper and more dejected.
Had you there, may I inquire, an
opportunity of visiting the citadel, and of
inspecting the military posts ?'
A third obeisance, in the deep a lower
depth.
And found them in full occupation by
our imperial troops I May I request an
answer expressed explicitly ?'
I found them so, your majesty'
Ah ! that is well.' Not but what I
myself have had full confidence in Dieb
itsch ; buff people will be sceptical at times.
Would yon believe it, there are rumors
current that even now in certain saloons
of St Petersburg, the taking of Silistria
is doubted in the teeth of the dispatches V
What could the hapless Frenchman do
but bow down once again.
However, I am glad to have unofficial
and independent testimony from an actual
eye-witness. You are certain the Marshal
is in 'undisputed military possession?'
'I am certain of it, your majesty'
Thank -you, Monsieur De la Jobard
iere ; I will not detain yon longer ; I wish
you a good evening. And turning round
to his desk again, his august interlocutor
touched a little bell. The usher appeared
again, and with the same courteous solem
nity _of demeanor shoired Monsieur .De la
Jobardiere down stairs.. -
TEI GIiXAMIST 1111911.RD.'3-81701EANAN.
An aid-de-camp came tripping down
just as the Frenchman's foot was on the
carriage step.
Monsieur De la Jobardiere ' he said,
you are an old enough - resident in St.
Petersburg to know that there are occa
sions on which it is wise to be discreet
about State affairs. Bat I have it in com
mand from his Imperial Majesty to inform
you, that as yon have so recently yourself
had occasion to visit Silistria, there can
be no possible objection to you stating in
general society that you found the citadel,
the fortress, and the city garrisoned by
his Imperial Majesty's troops.'

ELIAS BARR & CO.—DEAR Sias: We have the pleas
ure of informing you that the Seventh Volume of THE
NEW AMERICAN CYCLOP/EDIA will be ready on the
let October, previous to which time we shall be glad to re
calve your orders.
As we do not, in any case, send this work on sale we
must consider all ordered as actually purchased.
Very respectfully, D. APPLETON & CO.
The New Cyclopedia surpasses all others in the space
given to our own country—its natural features and ro
sources—and to American History and Biography.—From
the New York Ev ang e lis t .
It is a perfect treasury of knowledge, in all branches of
the arts and sciences, in literature, history, biography and
geography.—From The Boston Pilot.
Pledged to abstain from doctrinal, sectarian, or sectional
discussions, it presents, so far as we have examined its ar
ticles, both sides of controverted topics with reasonable
fulness and strict fairness.—/From The National Era.
Several eminent medical and legal authorities, both in
New York and Boston, furnish contributions in their
respective departments; 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 hes never before been combined in a single
publication of the American Prees.—.From, The Lancaster
Exantin:r.
Its freshness and genera thoroughness give it a decided
advantage over any oyclopa•dia of its class, hitherto issued
on either side of the Atlantic.—From The New York Times.
It will be within the reach of all. Apprentices and
merchants' clerks can procure the work as well as anybody,
and with less cost to them (if they take it in numbers)
than many of them expend nightly for cigars and beer.—

doing their own work, and having purchased their fixtures
at very low prices, in consequence ofwhich their expenses
will be leas than any other establishment of the kind here,
they can make Castings and finish them at more reason
able prices than has heretofore ruled in this City.

PREMIUM POE 1860
In order to increase the already large circulation of the
Eracxxasoczza, we publish this month
.a splendid line
engraving of Frith's picture of Merry-Making in the
Olden Time,' which we shall present exclusively tolhe
subscribers to the Magazine for 1860, whether old or new.
The subject represents the pastimes of our ancestor% and
is eminently of a genial, domestic, character. The .plate,
engraved in England at :an expense of 2000. dentin, is
entirely new, measures twenty-flue by nineteen and a half
inches in size, 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 to those good old times when the men
wore cocked-hats and knee-breeches, and the women stays
and hoops—a costume not essentially differing from the
corset and crinoline et the present day. dknost in .tise
centre of the picture and a little to the back-ground Li a
country dance on the green, with a bard-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 sponse, who is still sitting at the testable, from
which he has been dragged. On the left, under a magnifi
cent spreading oak, sit the ,
squire and his wife; whom a
countryman with his hat off is respectfully 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 elopes and
copses. The picture has the expreasion of gayety-through
out and the engraving is splendidly executed. It is freak
from the burin of Hoar., not having yet been published in
England.'

The Stereoscope Is the moat instructive, interesting, en

None are too young, none too old, none too Intelligent,
none too uneducated, to acknowledge its worth and beauty.
No home is complete without it, and it must and will
penetrate everywhere.
It presents to your view every part of the world, in all
the relief, boldness, perspective, and eherpness of detail,
as if you were on the spot.
Photographers are everywhere exploring Europe, Asia,
Africa, America, to search of the grand fitd the beautiful,
and the results of their skill are constantly enriching our
stock.

We have an immense variety of paper Views of Scenes
in Paris, London, England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales,
France, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Spain, The Rhine,

effect of these illuminated views is most remarkable.
Every gentleman of wealth and refined taste should
have in his drawing-room some of our exquisite views on
glass, with a revolving stereoscope, showing 12, 25, 60 or
100 scenes. Nothing can be more Urinating, and one can
offer no greater treat to a friend fund of the picturesque
and the beautiful.
Anthony's Instantaneous Stereoscope Views are the
latest Photographic wonder. They are taken in the fortieth
part of a second, and everything no matter how rapidly
may be moving, is depicted as sharply and distinctly as
it had been perfectly at rest. This gives an additional
value, for to the beauties of inanimate nature it adds the
charm of life and motion. The process is a discovery of
our own, and being unknown in Europe, we receive from
London and Paris large orders for Anthony's Instantane
ous Views of America life and scenery.
Among other things we have just published Stereoscopic
Illustrations of the Scene of the Fulton Street Prayer
Meetings, in which many hearts feel an interest. The
particulars of this will be found in our catalogue.
