Ttvo Portraits from && Crowd
Charles Swain draws the following nor
traits, the originals of which we meet almost ,
daily :
Some beings whercsoe'er they go,
Find nought to please or to exalt
Their constant stud' but to show
Perpetual modes of finding fault.
While others in the ceaseless round
Of daily want, and daily care,
Can yet cull (lowers from common ground,
And ticicc enjoy the joy the' share.
Oh ! happy they who happy mr.kc,
Who,blescing, still themselves are blest!
Who something spare for others' sake,
And strive in all things for the best !
Saturday Ereniftgt
How sweet the evening shadows fall,
Advancing from the west,
.As ends the weary week of toil,
And comes the day of rest.
Bright o'er the earth the star of eve
Her radiant beauty sheds ;
And myriad sisters calmly weave
Their light around our heads.
Rest, man, from labor! rest from sin J
The world's hard contest close ;
The holy hours with God begin
Yield thee to sweet repose.
Bright o'er the earth the morning ray
Its sacred light will cast,
Fair emblem of the glorious day
That evermore shall rest
Sleeping on Sunday.

A little fellow from four to five years J

trowsers, was intensly delighted with a
patch ii is grand-mamma had applied.
Ho wauld sit and gaze upon it in a state
of remarkable admiration; and in one of
these moods .suddenly exclaimed:
"Grandma must put one on t'other knee
nd two behind, like Eddy Smiths."
If that boy lives,, he will beat Gov.

It is most frequently thc little present of
an amic de pension. We think so on see
ing tho ruse with which the Countess
thrust hers in thc wide sleeve of her bed
gown, in taking care to raise a little after
hor arm in order to let it fall again.
With these attitudes, it is alowable to
have on the bed, in the midst of journals,
reviews, bonbons, and handkerchiefs so
contracted in their wide borders that they
are not useful for a cold in the bead, a
little hand mirror of Persian cut ivory, to
be consulted in thc horrible crisis of head
ache, which thc lady absolutely is free
from, but which is made thc pretext for
these horizontal and oriental receptions.

In a certain country town in which re
ligious differences were notably fostered,
the orthodox minister was once presented
with a raven which, by its former owner,
had been taught to 'talk,' or at any rate
pronounced certaiu words with much dis
tinctness. For some time after its recep
tion, the worthy clergymen was ignorant
of the extent of the birds accomplishments
and especially so of the fact that some
words pronounced by it were decidedly
j unclerical and profane. At length an
j old lady, a notorious disputent belonging
t to another society, chanced to pay a isit

an account of a great feat of strength that,
was performed on the track of the rail
road near Pishkill Landing, a few days
since. Two men were trying to lift a
piece of iron, but one of them could nofc
lift his end. A mediunwized young, man,
aged about nineteen, stood looking on.
"O 9
, g 3 h ,x caI) ,ift that end, IJc did so
with ease. He then added, 'I should
like to wager any man that I could lift
the whole piece.' A small bet was made,
when the young man procured a rope,
fastened it over his shoulders, then to the
iron, and then lifted it from the ground
as easy as he did the end. It was as
certained that thc piece of iron weighed
HOG pounds. The name of the vounjr
