NES WHITTEX ON A SMALL FLOWER
ga CALLED
Violette de Nuit-*
BY CHARLES J. COX.
I'VE heard there blows 2 mystick flow’t,
Wiose breath the day beam never kist ;
But sighs perfume at twilight hour;
And spreads it’s charms in ev'ning mist.
~ Resembling thee a heart 1 know
~~ Which never sichs to day’s bréad beam.
But treasures all it’s stores of woe,
- To sigh alone at twilight gleam.
© No streaming eye e’er told its grief,
«
-
While day-beams might that eye illume ;
Ne’er sought in sunny smiles relief,
But stille=it sighs for cy’ning’s gloom.
-And sacred be this orphan flow’r,
And sacred be the care-worn heart,
hat loves in pensive lonely hour,
To lisp in sichs from day apart.
oes emee® This small and interesting
«flower is the Hesperus Tristusof Linnzus
Class Tetradynamia Order Siliquosas=it
‘ blossoms after sunset. and at that time dis-
rses a delicious perfume ; but neither the
oe nor the perfume fire sensible in the
day.

Sam Scraggle.
A tayloring wight Sam Scraggie was,
Of Washington’s wide city; d
And Rachel Ross he lov’d, becaus®
- “I'his Rachel Russ was pretty.
Love’s a delicious thing you know,
1t makes one feel all over so.
‘But Rachel Ross did not love him,
Which griev’d him very badly ¢
Mis cyes in tears of woe did swim,
And sorrow sunk him sadly.
How much do peopie undergo,
From wounds of master Cupid’s bow.
“Mis heart was hotter than his goose,
As still he thought about her
“#1 see,” he cried, ¢it is no use,
~ sFor] shall die without her.’
‘Never was creature troubled oe,
‘Since Noah's flood long time age
‘8 Georgetown Tom the butcher dwelt,
And he was one of twenty :
Mid Rachel mighty wishes felt,
To have fresh meat a plenty.
Love's very pleasant food you knew,
But beef and lamb are better though
Row jealousy had sciz—ed snip
» Which like the grave is cruel}
ys he, <I do not care a doit
I} kill Tom~—in a duel.’
Yor those that love will fight you know
_ And Samucl’s courage proves it 50.
But Tom the butcher having fir'd ..
A loaded pistol never;
Had choice of weapons, and desired
To fight Sam with a cleaver.
The man that’s challenged you know,
With what he please may fight his foe.
But Sam would only fight with ballye-
And so thar matter ended
Me then went to the Capitol,
And to the top ascended.
O dear | how desperate did he grow !
{Common Pleas, to be holden at Bellefonte,
And eight mote taylors with bed.
The ladies always Jove to shew
+ Their cruecliy to men in woe. id
: 4
Then greivous——ly did Samuel grunt,
Grew sickyand hourly sigh—cd ;
But got "fore long the better o'nt,
Or else—he might have di—ed,
When love begins to better grow,
*T'is pot 80 bad to bear you know.
Rachelin time did change her mind,
Lest she should die a virgin;
To marry Sam she felt inclined,
Indecd it was very urging.
"That love's capricious this doth show;
What changes 1t doth undergo—s
Pray ladies, han’t you found it so
Says Sam.~ I won't,——in great disdain
Lo! how was she surpris—ed;
She learn’t (too late) that TAYLORING MEN
Are not to be despis—ed.
Love’s a strange kind of thing I trow.
It makes one {eel all over so;
It moveth us all to and fro,
As Bonaparte’s match doth show,
And his old wife's sud overthrow,
And Rachel's unex peoted woe,
And Samuel Scraggle’s pride~also.
