ask me not to diiink.
Fair lady, B;k me not to drink
A toast to thee to-night ;
For broken vows and blasted hop?s
Expose the demon's bliijht.
Tut back the wine I dure not taatev-
Put hack the sparkling bowl ;
ror who hath quailed a draught so deep,
And reached a blissful goal ?
Oh ! ask me not. thero lies within
A poison rlocp end dire!
And every drop hut served the more
To fan tho latent tiro.
Eaeh draught will qucneh my sense of guilt,
And blast youth's budding hope ;
Eaeh will rink mo deeper still,
In moral uight to grof e.
Oh ! press me not to touch the cup,
Within are glaring eyes, '
Ami starving widows, hungry babw,
And frceiing orphans' cries;
Whom the gods destroy thev first make drunk,
llicn ask mo not to drink;
Oh. tempt mo not. but spare my soul
From doatb'a eternal brink.
I Imvo throe sisters, mildly fair,
Like angels round inv way ;
Whoso love is like thesWs that slpne
With undiminished ray ;
Shall Ibey bo doomed In see me fall
A prey to maddening drink.
And sundered be the lovo that binds
Or snappod tho golden link ?
Another sleeps where sadly wave
The willows io tho vnlo ;
And midnight whispers from the sky,
Come on tho sighing gale ,
So passed away as summer's breath,
In life's incipient bloom ;
Then tempt mo not ; I would not mar
Her slumbers in the tomb.

A moat wonderful story reaches us from
Montana; a tale which we should hnrdly
credit, were it not related to us by one
whom wc consider worthy of credence. The
gentleman who related tho circunistnnco to
us came down by the steamer yesterday, utnl
had himself conversed with Mr. Edward
Parsons, one of the lucky adventurera, who
gave him thu following particulars :
In July last a company of five prospec
tors was niude up in Helena, who having
heatd of thu unexplored country around the
head of the Yellowstone, determined to
visit that district in search of lodes. The
country was found to be almost entirely free
Iroui Indians, antl there was abundance of
game uutil they arrived within two days
journey of Yellowstone Lake, when the
scene entirely changed, the country being
entirely barren, and permeated in every di
rection with hot springs and lissurcs iu the
rock, from which issued smoke and noiious
gases.
Continuing their journey through a
scorching atmosphere, uud encountering
some peril among thu rough and irregular
ridges ol bare rocks, which everywhere (lis-tingiii.-.hc.l
thfl landscape, tho traveler on
the third day, came to the margin of a luke,
from which issued a river, which they
judged would lead to the Yellowstone.
After following the stream for somo time,
they came to a long, irregular mound, crown
ed on the summit by un ancient "Curn"
similar to those seen in some parts of New
Mexico, which was half concealed in grass
and a growth of low bushes.
A3 tiie work of removing the stone did
not appear to be a dillicult one, they being
unceinented and of medium size, it was pro
posed to open the "Carn," which was done
alter half a (lay's labor, ami below was
found a solid cemented floor, w hich sounded
hollow to the tread. Being determined to
complete their work, the travelers, alter
some labor, dug down some twelve inches,
when they came to un immense stone, seven
' feet long, which it took the united strength
nf the party to remove. Beneath there was
j a lono. hw chamber, and when '.lie eyes ol
I the intruders Default! accustomed to the
darkuesss, it was seen that an Indian cata-
j c uiib Hud iu.cn unearthed.
j Seated in a single row around the quad
rangle were the remains of upwards of thir
ty wariiors, from whose form thu tlesh hud
long since moldercd away, and whose very
bones crumbled into dust at the touch ot
the spectator. On the floor around lay
I iiunieious instruments! of war or chase, some
! of iron und some of stone, and thu entire
apaitmeiit was covered with a Cue und al
most impalpable iliiot. which was all that
remained of the furs and robes with w hich
this abode of death had doubtless, nt one
tiniH, been carpeted,
Ljing beside the bones neru uumcrous
oi iiam, nts, indieati ig thu rank ol the ih-ad,
and among them were many of tlne twist
ed circlets of gold known to antiquarians as
taiqca, which had at one time entwined the
necks and the arms of their savage owners.
Some of these weru of unusual size, weigh
ing one and a half to two pound, and
many minor ornaments of the same precious
metal were also secured by thu happy find
ers. What chiefly attracted attention was,
however, a massive basin or kettlo that 00
copied the centre of thu apartment, and was
doubtless used as a sacrificial censer, for
burning incense, it being two feet high and
two feet and a halt in circumference. This
missive article, wonderful to tell, proved on
inspection to be pure gold, and was so
heavy that the party had great difficulty in
removing it from its resting place aud
bringing it into the upper air. Endeavors
were then made to break the vessel, but the
pure quality of the gold caused it only to
bend beneath thu weight of thu blows in
flicted upon it.
Aft r great exertions the ndventurers were
enabled, by means of thuir axes, to sever
tho mass into portable pieces, laden with
which the party turned their steps homo
wards, having themselves to walk the great
er pnrt of the way to give relief to the bur
dened animals. The w hole amount of gold
was brought to Helena, and Mr. Edward
Parsons calculated that his share of the
treasutc amounted to about if 21,000, the
whole being about f 105,000 in v&lue. Mr.
Parsons is a native of Montana, and resides
ut Green Yale, near Helena, where he is well
known. Notwithstanding his extraordinary
good luck, he intend to return to the river
where these discoveries were made, and
which he calls Green River, feeling con
vinced that there are more catacombs in
that vicinity.

There arc probably but fow, if any of our
tinners w oo nave not, at some time, (says
tlie San Francisco Pre,) seen and admired
the heads ol Indian arrows, speurs, javelins,
etc., found in almost every part of this con
tinent ; and who has not often wontlered
how they could bo so delicately nnd truly

ilium! in the various parts of the Euiopenn
continent. The Hon. Caleb Lynton, before
Ins return trip to the east from thin coast,
casually met with a party of Shasta Indians,
who still used these points, although with
most of the tribes, at this day, thev have
been succeeded cither with fire-arms or iron
weapons. Among the number he also found
one Indian who could make them, and in-
uuceu nun to go tlirougli with the various
stages of manufacture, which he did, and
which Mr. L. subsequently described to the
American Ethnological Society iis follows :
The Shasta Indian seated hiliwfilf intr,.
the floor, anil laying tho stone, anvil upon
his knee, which was of compact Mate, with
one blow of his agate chisel he separated
mo uuMinan peuoiu into two parts, then
giving another blow to the fractured side
he split off a slab some fourth of an inch in
thickness. Holding the piece against the
anvil with the thumb and finger of the left
hand, ho commenced a scries of continous
blows, every one of which chipped off frag,
incuts of the brittle substance. It rrnrliiallt-
assumed the requited shape. After finish- I

gan striking gentler blows, every one of
which I expected would break it into pieces.
Y'et such was their application, his skill
and dexterity, that in little more than an
hour he produced a perfect obsidian arrow's
head.
I then requested him to carve me one
from the remains of a broken porter bottle,
which after two failures, ho succeeded in
doing. He gave me ag a reason for his ill
success, he did not understand the nature
of the glass. No sculptor ever handled a
chisel with greater precision, or more care
fully measured the weight and effect of
every blow, than this ingenious Indian, for
even among them arrow-making is a dis
tinct trade or profession which many at
tempt, but iu which few attain excellence.
He understood the capacity of the material
he wrought, and before striking the first
blow, by surveying the pebble, he could
judge of its availability as the scalptor
judges of the perfectness of a block of
Parian.

Idleness. Idleness is the nurse of all vices.
It moves so slowly that they all overtake it.
The Germans and Italiaua say, proverbially,
that "Idleness is the Devil's pillow." Some
affect to excuse this hydra-headed habit
by asking, what harm cau a person do w hen
he does nothing? Tho reply is ready and
plain. He who is passive in allowing de
cay is himself a destroyer While standing
still aud refusing to help, ho obstructs the
progress of others. Wc are told in holy
writ: "ISy much slothlu'ncss the building
decayeth, and through idleness of thu hands
the house dmppeth through." And again
it is said : "1 went to thu field of the sloth
lul and by the man void of understanding,
audio! it was overgrown with thorns and
nettles, which covered the face thereof, and
the stone wall thereof was broken down.''
The words of Cato, tho elder, are In the
proverb, "that idleness has been described
to be a moral leprosy, w hich soon eats its
way into the heart and corrodes our happi
ucss, w hile it undermines our health." Idle
ness is costly, w ithout being a luxury.
Montague would always reckon the year's
account of his expenses with the following
entry : "Item for my abominable habit i f
idleness, a thousand livres." We toil for
leisure only to discover, when we have suc
ceeded in our object, that leisure is a great
evil. How quickly would tho working
class bo reconciled to what they may all
call the hardships of compulsory labor, if
they were doomed only tor a short time to
the hardships of compulsory idleness. They
would quickly find that it is much better
to wear out than to rust out. The idle man
is at the mercy of all vices. The working
man, on the contrary, finds a safeguard in
his ocupation, which leaves no time for
temptation nor desire to yield to them. It
was well said, by the oldest of the Greek
poets, that "the laborer is the sentinel of
virtue."
A horse was tripped and thrown down
by stepping into a lady's hoop skirt, the
other day, at Lowell, Mass., but the wearer
escaped unhurt.

Judgo is an able judge and a pious
man. lie knows for w hat the Islund of
Jamaica is chiefly celebrated, and thinks
with Lord Byron that "the two things most
consolatory to fallen ninn are rum aud true
religion."
Disdaining to imbibe perpendicularly in
bar-rooms, ho keeps a demijohn of conceded
Otard in his office, and there slakes as thirst
or inclination prompts. The Judgo lias a
son who knows his father's habits, and
emulates them with filial assiduity. On
Sunday morning tho Judge would sny :

began to notice a marked diminution in the

On reachitiir tho office aud tnki no- hold of

the empty jug, but noticed a small piece ot
white paper attached to the handle, on which
was legibly inscribed these words: "Second

After church father and son met. and
looking curiously ut each other smiled a
little smile, but said nothing. The "repairs'
on that Methodist building have not been

An amusing incident occurred in one of
the churches of Philadelphia, last Sunday
evening. An old lady, whi.se failing eves
demanded an unusually large orayer book,
started for church a little early. "Stopping
on the way to call on a friend, she laid her
prayer book on the center table. When the
bells began to chime, she snatched what
she supposed to bo her prayer book, and
started for church. Her seat was in tho
chancel end of the gallery. The organ
censed playing the minister read :
"The Lord is in holy temple, let all the
earth keep silence before him."
In an effort to open her supposed prayer
book, sho started the spring of tho mutic
box, whicji she hail taken instead. It began
to play in her consternation she put it on
the floor. It would not stop ; she put it on
the seat ; it sounded louder than ever.
Finally she carried it out whilo it plaved
"L-tnuigan'a Ball."
Some time ago tho Rev. Mr. Spurgeon
preached a sermon on the text 'And Mary
wept.' In tho midst of the stream of earnest
eloquence that drew tears from many of
those present, in describing the chaiacter of
the tears shed by Mary over the feet of Je
sus, he broke suddenly off. aud turning to
his Congregation, exclaimed : "The tears
w hich Mary shed were not such tears as
many of you pour out when you come to
this alter. They Camo from her heart they
were tears of blood and not the poor stuff
that you present as an offering to an offend
ed God.' Then leaning over the pu'pit,
nnd looking earnestly in the sea of upturned
fneef, he exclaimed, "There are some of yv:
fi) v Ik-:-.) t-.'ars I v.-uy'.u aot give a farthing
u quart.'
Thero was a dry old fellow out in Jeffer
son county, in this State, who called ono
day on tho member of Congress elect. The
family were at breakfast, and the old man
was not in a decent trim to be invited to
sit by ; but he was huugry, and determined
to get an invitation.
"What's the new t" inquired tho Con

"Yes, thauk you," said tho old man,

The Most Interested Paiitt. A couple
bad not quarrelled during the whole long
term of their married life. At last the hus
band was taken ill and evidently about tn
die. His wife came to his bedside, where,
after she had seen his condition, tbe follow ing
coloquy ensued :
"Wy, daddy, your feet are cold, and your
hands are cold, aud your nose is cold !"
"Wb'bI, let um be cold !"
"Wy, daddy, you're going to die !'
"Wa'ul I guess I know wot I'm bout !"
Wy, daddy, wat's to becum of uiu if you

Hruib says ho sat down to a Christmas
table where there were thirteen turkey gob
blers. Only one of them was cooked.'
Mrs. Jenkins complained in the evening
that the turkey she had eateu at Christina
did not set well. "Probably," said Jenkins,
"it was not a hen turkey." He got a glass
of water in his face.
X clergyman iu Sheffield asked somn
