GETTYSBURG, PA., FRIDAy EVENING, SEPTEMBER 8, 1854.
All yes, the pooman'a garden !
ft is great jo to me,
The little precio plies of ground
Before his door.to see !
The rich , man hu gardeners,—
Hie gardener. young and old ;
He never takes a @pidgin hand,
Norworkethin the Mould.
It is not with the poor man so,—
Wealth,Urvanra ' he has none ;
And all the work that'. done for him
Must by himself be done.
All day upon Lune weary book
He toilette with good will
And bark he comes at set of man,
Hii garden-plot to till.
The rich man in his garden walks,
And 'nigh his garden t urea , ;
Wrapp'd in a dreaM of other thins,
He seems to take his ease.
One moment he beholds his flower,,,
The next they are to/got ;
He eateth of his rarest fruits
As though he ate them not.
It is not with the.pmr man so;
He knows each inch or ground,
And every plant ind flower .
That rows within its bound.
He knows where grow his wall-flowers.
And - when the/ will be oar ;
-His moss -rote, and con voleulus
That twines his pales about. •
He knows his red sweat-williams,
And the stocks that Con him dear,—•
That welteet role of crimson stocks,
For he botight the seed fast yea!,
* 'And though unto the rich man
The cost of floweri is nought,-
A xi:pence to a poor man
Is toil, and care, and nought:
And hem is his potato-bed,
strong end — green; .•
How could a rich man's heart leap up
At any thing so mean ! . .
.Bat he, the poor.man, sees his crop,
And a thankful man lel., •
For he thinks all through the winter
How rich- his hoard will be !
And how his merry little ones
Braude the fire will tumid,
Each with a large•potaio -
In a round and roil hand.
A rich men has hlit wall•fnlit
And his delirious vines ;
ilia fruit for every . season,
His melons and his pines
The poor man has his gooseberries,
His currants, •a hits and red,'
His apple and his damson pee r ,
And a little strawberry-bed.
A happy man he thir.lts himself,
A man that's passing well,—
To hese some Inuit for the children.
And some besides to sell.
Amund the rich man's trellised bower
Gay. costly creepers run ;
The poor man has his scarlet beans
To screen him from the sun. •
And there before the little bench,
Crershadowed by , the bower,
Grow southernwood and lemon thyme;
Rweetpea and gilliflower.
And pink and clove carnations -
Rich scented, side by vide";
And at the end a hollyhtici
With an edge of Londompride.
And here the old grandmother cornea
When her day',, wort is dose
And here they bring the sickle babe
To cheer it in the sun.
And here on Sabbath mornings.
The good man comes to get
His 'Sunday nosegay, mcissrose bud;
White pink, and mignonette.
And bens on 'Sabbath evenings,
Until the stare are out,
With a little one in either hand
He walketh all about.
For thotigh his mien-plot is small,
Him doth it satisfy ;
For them is no niche of all his ground
That does not fill his eye..
It is not with the rich men thus;
For thorish his grounds are wide,
Ile looks beyond, and yet beyond,
With soul onsatistled.'
Yes ! in the poor man'igsrden grow
Far more than herbs and flowers,
Kind thoughts, contentment, peace of mind
And joy fur weiry hours.
All is not lair tbat @cantina.
"I hope, Caroline," said Mrs. Mixon,
as she drew up her work table, and com
menced sewing on a dress she was desirous
of completing before night, al do hope no
body will come in this afternoon, I am so
hurried by work."
"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed," re
sponded Caroline, who was looking out of
the window, .'for there comes Mrs. Ren
shaw up the street." - -
"In mercy, I hope not. I would rath
er have it anybody else, she's such a tire
some woman."
Further conversation was interrupted
by the bell, which confirmed Mrs. blizon's
apprehensions.
"Mydear Mrs. Renshaw," said tho lady,
clearing her brow at ouco, "how delighted
I am to see you ; I was Just saying to
Caroline, that it was so lonely sitting here,
I wished somebody would come in. How
is Mr. Renshaw ? Well, I hope ?"
"No,Yin sorry to say, he isn't at all
well, an d I came over to setoff you had any
camomile that you would let me have; he
thinks it would do him good."
"Mr. 'Renshaw sick ? lam sorry for
him and for myself too, as I was counting
upon having you spend the afternoon with
I us, though of course, under such eircurri=
stances, I shouldn't think of askingyou.—
Caroline will bring the camomile.'
"I should like nothing better than to
stay if . Mr. Renshaw was well. Good
morning."
"There, we've
,got rid of her. Row
lucky that Mr. Renshaw was sick, other
wise we should have had her billetted up:
en us all afternoon. I wish I could get'
rid of' her every time by so small a sacri
fice as a little camomile."
'‘What an agreeable and obliging woman
Mrs. Mixon is," soliloquised blre. Hen
shaw, "and bow much she deemed disap.
pointd that I couldn't stop. No mat.
ter, I'll take an early opportunity ' to go
there."
Mrs. Ifenshaw had something to learn
before she could comprehend that "all is
pot fair that seems so."
"FEARLESS AND FREE."
"Died Yesterday."
Every day is written this little sentence
—"Died yesterday, so and so." Every
day a flower is plucked from sothe sunny
home—a breach mado in some happy cir
cle—a jewel stolen from some treasure of
love. Each day from the summer fields
of life, some harvesters disappear; yea,
every hour, some sentinel falls from his
post, and is thrown from tho ramparts of
Time into the surging waters of Eternity.
Even as we write, the funeral procession
of one "who died yesterday," winds like a
summer shadow along the street.
"DIED YESTERDAY."--Who died ?
Perhaps it watts gentle babe, sinless as an
angel, pure as the zephyr's hymn, one
whose laugh was as the gush of summer
rills loitering in a bower of roses, whose
little life was a perpetual litany—a May.
time, erowued with passion flowers that
never fade. Or, mayhap it was a youth,
hopeful and generotts—one whose path
was hemmed with flowers, with not a ser
pent lurking underneath—one whose soul
panted after communion with the greilt
and good, reached forth with earneststrug
'gle for guerdon iu the distance. But that
heart of his is still new, Tor he . "died yea
terday."
"DIED YESTERDAY."-A younegal,
ure as the orange flowers thati clasped
Er forehead, was' stricken• down, as she
stood - at the — altar; and from - the dile
aisles of the temple she was borne to the
"garden of olußberers.". A tall brown
man, girt with the halo of victory; and
standing at the day's'elose tinder his own
vine end fig-tree, Jell to the dust, oven as
tile anthem trembled upon his_lips ; -and
he,•too, was hid .swhere the rude fore-
fathers of the hamlet sleep." An aged
patriarch, bowed with years and Cares,
nvetras he lookiid out upon the distant
hills fouthe coming of the angel hoiit, sank
into the 'dreamless sliiiber, aid on his
door:step next day was written--- 4 Died
Yesterday."
"DIED Ynauwir . ."— Daily; wo

hourly in.sotue graveyard tbo nod is

over the dead.. As•often in the thorn we
find that some :flower, that blushed so

some brother soldier; whose cheery cry,
in the sieges and struggles of the past, has

Influence of Women.
Senator Hottston was once itaked, at a
largo party , given , by Mr.. Speaker Win
throp, why he did not attend the usual
places' of public amusement as he bad
been' accustomed to do. His reply • was
this—let it , be read and remembered by
the mothers and daughters throughout A
merica
"I make it a point," said the lionorable
senator, "never-to visit a place where lily
lady, were she with use, would. be ,unwil
flog to g 0... know it would give her
pain, as a Christian, to attend snots places,
and I will not go wyself where I could not
take my wife.'
A' member of Congress present alluded
to his own wife, and added that there was
a mutual understanding between him and
her, that they should each follow the
bent of their own inclination in such mat
ters.lll
"That may do for you," responded Mr.
Houston, "but with me it is different from
what it is with many Men. My wife has
been the making of me. She took me
when I was a victim of slavish appetites . ;
she has redeemed and regenerated me, and
I will not do that in her absence which I
know would give her pain if she were
present." ' • '

WOrking'on the SabbOth.
.
There are a great many people who pro.
fess to'keep the Sabbath, according tot the
fourth commannment, but who . . some how
or other, always dud a multitude of 'works
of necessity' to be attended to. We have
seen 'a capital anecdote lately about a fa . m ,
ily of such people who, were pretty severe
ly rebuked by a colored man in, their em
ploy. The family were farmers. One
Sabbath morning the colored man was not
up, as usual, at bteakfast. The son was
sent tri call him, but Ctesar said they should
not wait for him, as he he dill not wish
any breakfast. •
"Why Cr,"le said the young man,
"we shall want you, as soon as the dew
is off, to help about that hay."
• "No," said he, "I cannot work anymore
on the Sabbath, it is not right." •
"It is not right 1" said the other, "is it
not right.to take care of what Providence
has given tin 1"
"0, there is no necessity for it," said he,
"and 'tis wrong to do it."
..But would you not pull your cow or
sheep out of a pit on the Sabbath, Cie

"No. not if I had been trying all the week

What a Girl can dd.
As an evidence of what the girls can do
if they have a mind, a Cincinnati press
states . that three years ago a poor: orphan
girl applied, and was admitted to set type
for that paper. She worked two years,
during which time she earned $2OO, and
availing herself of the facilities which the
printing-office afforded, acquired a good
education. She is now associate editress
of a popular paper, and is engaged to be
married.to one of the smartest lawyers in
Ohio. Such a girl is bound to shine and
eclipse tens of thousands who are edu
cated in the lap of luxury and taught all
the 'iaccomplishments" of a boarding
school, Such a wife will be a jewel to
her husband, and ornament to society, and
an honor to hertex and her country.
(From the N. Y. Tribune.
I don't care If I do.
I know you don't but somebody
else does. Everybody ought to care.—
Everybody don't, and so you don't care,
and that is what makes you so melees.—
In our short walk coming down Broad
way the other night we heard that little
sentence—"l don't care if I do"—three
times ; and every time we felt that if the
speaker did not care, eomebody that he
should care for, did care. There is no
harm in the words, it is only in the tone,
manner and meaning, and in the way they
are applied. They had a meaning each ' ;
time we heard them, and each time meant!
a different thing, and each time advanced
the speaker one step nearer the point--;
the point of—"I don't care if I do.'
