Stoop we cull the blossoms fair That gem life's beaten sod, We mark their footsteps in the path Were, late, the living trod. Sail we, with throbbing hearts upon The strange and mighty deep; The wrecks of the departed there Shall cause our hearts to weep. Truly, the dead are all around, - In sunny glade and dell ; Peopling the vacant spots of earth With forms invisible. And slowly we are moving on, With tread all firm and brave, To dwell itithat dim land, that lies Beyond the unknown grave. God grant us grace to recognize 'Phis world, which many dread ; So shall we, in our paths of life, Walk with unfaltering tread. Old Times and New Times. The farmer rises at early morn, And betakes himself to work; fie plows, delves and hoes the green corn, And scorns from labor to shirk. The gentleman raised in the city, sleeps .Till the fashionable hour of ten. Then rises, washes, brushes his hair, . And wondahs iffahmahB are men. How sweet is the life of the farmer boy. How smoothly it glides along, As he follows his plow with a "ghee whoa hoy," And he carols his pastoral song. He breathes the pure and wholesome air, And loves his life of toil, The city's loud din has no charmes for him,. So great as his own loved soil, WhEn the happy time of harvest arrives, He gathers the golden grain, And stows it away secure, and safe Fro:n the stormy wind andrain. And when the days of harvest are o'er, When cold dreary winter sets in; Happy at home as a king on his throne, The farmer remains with his kin. But howls it with the gentleman - bloodl Unaccustomed to labor anti toil, He sleeps all the day, and night visits the play, His life is one constant turmoil. At twenty he seems a middle aged man At thirty;how old he appears; But the farmer at 50 calls fortlythy remark, La! fion7 he_ look well for his years! Would it were now as in primitive times, When luxuries did not abound; The girls were then useful at home to their ma's, And gentlemen delved in the ground. The ladies, God bless theiridear little souls, • Could then mend stockings and spin; But now its disgraceful to darn up the And dishwashing's an absolute sin. Miscellaneous Selections. A Curious Theft—A. Sea Sketch When our ship was in Marseilles we took on board a number of thousand dollars in specie, that was to be brought home to the United States. It was mostly in five franc pieces,. and was put up in small canvass bags containing five hundred pieces each. When brought on board it was stored, in a small room, next adjoining the spirit room, below the orlop deck, and upon the larboard side. -The entrance to the specie room was by means of a small hatchway which was secured by a strong padlock. Abaft of this hatch was the bulkhead of the bread room, and abrseast of it were the rooms of some of the passed midshipmen. Directly opposite the_other aide of the deck was the walk of a sentry, whose duty it was to takechargti of the lantern that was constantly kept burn. ing there, and also to keep the after part of the deck free from all persons who had no business there. Directly amidships, and upon the starboard side of which the larger lantern al secured. was a small store room occupying a apace of some ten feet square; consequently when the sentry's attention was called to the lantern. which was often the case, .as ho had to light the ,candles for. the °tricot* the view of the opposite side of the deck Was shut at. One afternoon, while the ship was on her passage from Toulon to Gibraltar, the:pui- . ser came on deck in a state , of intense' ape. tion, and sought the captain in the cabin. • "What's the matter, purser,'" asked the captain, who was just looking aver the day's work of the midshipmen. ) '• "Good heiriena there is matte" ccougni" replied tips purper, sinking. into, a aotet -and 149P2: 111 .1‘ his capN.Ron the - 41q t . , "What is it ? a deficit it,t th e elms' spirit cask, running a leak r • air, There'. money skone,l". ALLENTOWN, LEHIGH COUNTY, PA., JULY 6, 1853. ""Some mistake of yours, then." do, captain. It's been stolen!" ""Stolen!" reiterated the captain,_ opening his eyes and leaning forward. “What money I" "Part of that we took at Marseilles." "But that is safely stored under lock and key, and directly under the eye of a compe tent.sentry." "Yes—but still some of it has been stolen. There are four bags gone.—nearly two thou sand dollars." • "Are you sure of this ?" "I have just come from the room, where I went to make an exchange for the gold we got at Toulon. I wanted the five-franc pie ces to pay off the grog-money to the men. I missed four of the bags. They are num bers six, nine, twenty-eight and thirty. I know just how I placed them." The captain sat some time without speak ing. Once or twice he seemed to be on the point of bursting forth into a passion, but he gradually calmed his feelings, and the cool judgement, which was one of his lead ing characteristics, came to his aid. "Have you spoken of this to any one 1" he asked, raising his eyes from the floor. "Only to my steward." • "Send for him at once." As the captain spoke he rung a small bell at his side, and the orderly entered the cabin. The purser's steward was sent for, and so was the captain of marines. To theta the subject was opened.. "Now," said the old captain, "there is need of caution here. Not a breath of this most get to the men, or the money will most assuredly be thrown overboard, and all tra ces of the thieves lost. It seems almost im possible that any one could have entered the specie room without detection; even with the connivance of the sentry; but yet the thing must have been done, and some of the marines must be in the ,plot. The officers whose rooms are on the after part of the ()s -lop deck, shall be placed upon the watch, and if every thing goes on an usual,we may 'yet catch the rascals, for in all probability they will go after more of the money." The thing was discussed - freely in the cabin, and when the arrangements were all made it had been decided that the orderly sergeant should detail four of the marines, whose honesty and keenness could be con fided in, as sentries for the post at the spirit room—that they should relieve each other as usual, and that thy should be silent on the subject of the theft. Mutters were thus ar ranged, and things went on as usual. It has been some time the practice, in serving out thii bread to the cooks of the messes, for the bread-bags to be brought. down and left at the door of the bread-rootn, and as the steward and his assistants filled them, they were set on the outside, for the cooks to get when they pleased, by simply a pass from the midshipman of the deck.— Somtimes the bags remained upon the orlop deck over night. It was proposed by the purser that this order, or rather disorder, of things should be stopped, but tho captain thought it better not to meddle with it, for if any of the cooks were implicated, this would surely prevent any further developments. The sentries, however, were strictly enjoin ed to keep their eyes upon the cooks when they came after their • bags, and also to look out that no one was secreted among them. The next day the purser went to the cap tain with the astounding intelligence that another bag of money was missing ! The sentries who had been on post during the night were called into the cabin and ques tioned, but they took solemn oaths that noth ing had 'gone amiss during their several watches tilt they•-could detect; and after each threatening on the part of the captain, he was forced to believe them, for the officers who had taken it upon themselves to be on the lookout, were equally at fault. 'lt was a strange affair at beat. The smell hatch was found to be securely locked, but yet another bag was missing ! How to account for it they knew not; but the . captain determined upon another trial. • Three days passed without any furthei development. Those who ware in. the se cret were still upon' the watch, and -the whole thing bad-as yet been kept'from the men. Even the master-at-arms knew noth ing of it. On the night of the fourth day there were some fifteen bread bags, newly filled, set outside of the bread room door, ready, for the cook to take in the morning. At mid night a marine named MOGutre, was placed upon the important post. He was a quick witted, keen-fellow, a Scatchmari by birth, and one who could be trusted. As soon as he had taken his post he went over to the larboad side of the deck and ran his eye around among the bogs. They, appeared all right, and es he poked hie fingers into the mouth of eirch . ,he found they were filled with bread. ' • Half an hour had paused away, and in the end of that time, as Me ire' stood leaning against the stancheen at *After corner the small square roortiledkiiik*lenlioried.:it appeared to *O4 l - One 'of OiePletza - 4114 had been op*** te.bis pmatil.o434:l•l6t, siert, bad beett:somehosi,moiied furtherJer-: ward, 110 cdas 50YiartOre than 'hotlNridther. by the intervening corner. He knew that no living soul had descended either of the ladders since the officers of the first watch came down, arid after that no one could have passed along the deck. As he stood and gazed upon the bag he thought 'he saw it move. • In a moment McGuire had guessed the secret. He sprang across the deck, and found that the 'bag stood exactly over the edge of the hatch, a position which it must have assumed during the fifteen minutes last passed. Re- untied the lanyard, but the mouth was full of bread; then he gave the bottom of the bag a kick with his foot, and a sharp cry came forth. It was but the work of a moment to throw the bag upon its side, and while McGuire was stooping down to examine the bottom, two of the lieuten ants, attracted by the noise, had come from their rooms. The bottom of the bag was already off, and a small boy, one of the ship's apprenti ces, named Quigley, was dragged out.— There was a little partition at the mouth of the bag, and while that had been filled with bread the main part bad been occupied by the boy. The mystery was soon out, for the boy was easily frightened into a full confession. One of the mess cooks, named Walton, and both of the steward's assistants were in the plot. Walton, an ingenious fellow, had made a key to fit the lock from tin impres sion he had obtained from the original.—, The bag he bad prepared so that the boy could be concealed inside, and at the same time easily le? himself out. Saveral small holes in the sides served him to see when the attention of the sentry was directed from him. The boy was easily smuggled into the bread room by the, two assistants, placed in the bag, and then set out with the other bags, but as near as possible to the hatch of the specie' room, front whence he found but little trouble in making his way to' the money. Ete had taken but one bag at a time, which he hauled up after" him into his narrow quarters, after which he would lace on: the bottom of the bread bag again, and in the morning his cook would come and carry hitn up to the berth deck. During the two weeks previous the boy had been placed on the sick list, so he was of course not expect. ed in his watch on deck at night. The implicated men were secured,, and the money was found in Walton's- mess chest.—They had laid their plans for desert ing when the ship arrived at Gibraltar, and getting the money off with them. They owned that they calculated upon securing five thousand dollars• The three men were court-martialed, sen tenced to two hundred lashes a piece, and then to be set on shore at the first port made, while the boy was - subjected to such refor matory processes the ship board afforded, he being only a tool in tht) hands of the ol der thieves. The sentences were carried out 'to the .very letter, and the old purser felt much easier after his money bags were seciired, and the adroit thieves disposed of.-,-Flag of our Union. - The Pedlar's Bargain. One dpy a tin pedlar, with an assortment of knick-knacks, arriving nt a village in Maine, called at one of the houses to sell his wares. After disposing of a few articles to the lady of the house, )vho seemed to live in the midst of children, she declared her inability to buy arty more for want of Money. I"But, mans, ain't you any rags ?" "None to sell, sir." "Well," said he, "you seem to have plenty of children. Will you sell me ono for tin ware ?" "What will you give, sir ?" I •"!'en dollars for one of them." "In good tin ware 7" "Oh yes, the best." She then handed one of the urchins to the pedlar, who, surprised that the offer was accepted. yet convinced that the mother would not part with her boy, placed him in the cart, and supplied the woman with tins till the sum of ten dollars was made up. . The man felt certain that the mother would rather raise the money than part with the child, seated himself by the side of the boy, who was much pleased with having a ride. The pedlar kept hie eyes on the house, expecting to see the woman hasten to' redeem the little one; he rode off at a slow pace. After proceeding some distance, he begari to repent of his bargain,and tinn ed back. The woman had just finished ornament ing her dresser with her tin ware when the pedlar returned. "Well, - f think the boy is• too small ; I guess you 'had better take him back again, and let me have tha'ware." "No, sir ; the bargain was fair,- and you 'shall keep it.

The Mysterious Travelers. • In ancient times there lived, at Manheim, a young man called Otto, who was brave and intelligent, but incapable of bridling his desires. When he wished for anything he spared 'no efFort to obtain it ; and his pas sions were like the storm winds, which cross rivers, valleys, and mountains, crushing everything in their passage. Tired of the quiet life he led at Manheim, he one day formed a plan to set out on a long journey, at the end of which he hoped to find fortune and happiness. Consequently, he put his best clothes in a buridle, placed in his girdle all the money he possessed, and' started, without knowing whither he was going.— After walking several days, he found him self at the entrance of a forest, which exten ded as far as the eye could reach: Three travellers had stopped- here, and seemed, like himself, to be preparing to cross it,— Ons was a tall, haughty vvootan, with a threatening mien, holding in her hand a javelin ; the second, a young gifl, half asleep, reclining In a chariot drawn by four oxen ; and the third an old woman in rags and with a haggard air. Otto saluted therri, inquiring whether they were acquainted with the forest; they replied. in-the affirma tive ; he asked permission': tcr accompany them, that he might not lose his way. All three consented; and they set out. The young, map soon perceived that his com panions possessed supernatural powers ; but he' Wes not afraid, and continued his walk. conversing with the three strangers. . . They had already pursued for several hours the path marked out among the Aes, when the sound of a horse's footsteps' was heard behind them. Otto turned and re cognized a citizen of Manheim, who had al ways been his greatest enemy, and whom he had hated for many years. The citizen overtook the foot passengers, smiled inso lently and, went on. Otto became very an gry. «I Would give all I possess, and al most all- I ever expect to possess, to revenge myself on the pride and haughtiness of that there, man." "I can satisfy thee," said the tall lady with the javelin. "Shall I make of him a blind and lame beggar? You have only to pay to me the price of the transformation." "And what is this price ?" asked Otto eagerly. "Thy right eye." "I would' willingly give it to be reveng ed." The young man had scarcely finished `peaking. when the transformation promised by his companion 'Molt place, and he found himself blind of an eye. He was at first a little surprised, but consoled himself with the thought that the other was left, and that he could still see the misery of his enemy. ' Meanwhile, they continued to march several hours without reaching the end of the forest, the road constantly becoming steeper and more difficult.; Otto, who began to be fa tigued, looked•with envy on the chariot in which the young girl was half reclining.- -It was so skilfully constructed, that the deepest ruts scarcely jostled it. "All roads must seem very smooth and short on this chariot," said he, approtiching, and I should like such an one myself:" "Is that rill ?" replied the second traveller; "I can this instant proeure for you what you desire." ' She struck with her foot the chariot in which she rode ; it seemed to become, and Otto preceived a second equipage drawn by. a couple of black oxen. Recovering from his astonishment he thanked the young girl and was about' to enter it when she stopped hi.n by a gesture. "1 have • fulfilled your desire," said she ; "but I cannot. make a worse bargain than my sister has made.— You have given her one of your eyes—l demand one of your arms.". Otto was at first a little disconcerted ;'but he was very tired—the chariot was before him, and as I •havo already said, 'he had never known bow to conquer his desires ; so after a short hesitation, accepted the pro posal, and found himself seated in his new carriage, but deprived of his right arm:— The journey continued'thus 'some time.— Forest succeeded forest, and no outline ap 7. peered. Meanwhile, Otto began to suf f er . from hunger -and thirst. The old woman,. who was walking beside him; seemed to preceive this. , ' , You are sad, my boy," said she; when one is hungry. ,orte is easily discouraged ; but I possess a certain remedy against faint ness." "What is it ?" asked the yonng man. "You see . this flask which I have in-my hand, and often carry tolny lips," replied the trave ller ;'•I1 contains joy, for fulness of trouble, and all the hopes of earth.
