There's not a town we march thro' Bat ladies looking arch thro The window panes will sarch thro' The ranks to find their joy, . While op the street each girl yon meet, With look so sly, will cry. -My eye, Oh isn't he a darling, tha bowld sojer boy !" Bet when we get the rout, ' ' " ' How they pont and they shout, . While to the right about. Gees the bowld sojer bay. "T'is then that ladies fair, In despair tear their hair, But the divil a one I care. Says the bowld sojer boy : For the world is all before us, Where the landladies adore as, And ne'er refuse to sjore us, But chalk us up with joy. We taste her tap. we tear her aay, Oh, that's the chap for me." ssys she, "Oh, isn't he a darling, the bowld sojer boy !" Then come along with me, Gramashree, and you'll see, .. y j How happy you. will be, , With your bowld sojer boy. . ' faith if you're up to fun, With me run, 'twill be done, . In the snapping of a gun,. Says the bowld sojer boy. , - And 'tis then that without scandal, Myself would proudly dandle, The little farthing candle.

The adventitious people didn't bring the world's end about . so easy as they thought,' aid Mrs. Partington, smiling at the recollec tion of saeing along-legged saint in a white cotton gown on the top el a neighboring house the night before. . ... Yes, replied Old Kogsr, zravely, 'it did come to an end; it sa?pendL'd for alittlcvrhile. when a meeting of its creditors was held, and thong!; its affairs were fonnd a little shaky, It was thoughJjest to let it go on, and it would come out all right enor.gh." 'Yoa'dcn't -',y so!", cried she, we.ll ' that's the reason why my clock is half an hour slow, and f dt-clare I couldn't acccour.t for it.' -Ike said nothing, bet that he was allowed to stay cut till half-pasf seven the night previous mads ii look as if he might have put the clock back, but there was no knowing.

"Why, would you believe it" contin ued she, raising. ters'pecsj , ,",U I'.only weighed just live pounds when it was born!" La, rae! why, I want to know,"; cried out Mrs. Smith, in amazement. "Why, Mrs. Fergerson,",'said Mrs. Turtle dove, ' that's nothing to tell on. There is Rachel Skinner's child, that did'nt only weigh just four pounds and a half when it was torn." "Goodness, gracious me? Why you don't say so," ejaculated Mrs Fegerson. "Sartin," here remarked Mrs. Hopkins, and that ain't much to tell on either. Why I've cften heard iny poor old dead and gone mother say, that I, when I was born weighed three pounds, and three ounces, with my Lib, thaks, and diapers, all on ' O, massy sakes alive!" cried out Mrs. i cnivao?e. ay ars. nopKjrs, aa rev lire 1" Eccextkic Female. In the county of Har risson, Mississippi, lives a female hermit a curiosity, indeed, of her sex, because prone to solitude and silence. She lives in a house the fabric of her own hand3, cultivates her own fields, splits her own rails, does her own fencing, and the present autumn she wj'.l have one hundred bushels of corn to sell, and a f-.w hundred bushels of potatoes, all the pro duct of her own unaided and indomitable la bors! She lives alone no husband, nor chil dren, nor neighbors nearer than three miles. IL7"SalIy Mander safe!, 3a;d Mrs. Parting ton, as her eyes fell upon an advertisement.

One of the most remar kable replies we remember ever to have heard, is attributed to Mr. OitHou',' the barrister. Seme one in his hearing used hackneyed sear casm, that heetween the churches of England and Rome there is but a pajer wall. "True," said he; "but the whole BiM. is printed on it."

The Countess of Erroll, who accompanied the Earl to the war, and has shared wifa him the hardships of the campaign, is said to have performed many kind offices for the sick and wounded. . C?Why is I'resident Pierce like the globe which we inhabit T 1 Because,' although he was thought at fiistto be perfect 1n his epbere, !fr fs now known he l af..tidnMy'jlatUmtd at th Poll." ; j PresiJont Pierce commences his annual Message to Congress with thanks to Provi dence for protecting care and merciful deal ings with us as a people. The convulsions which shake Europe claim an individual sym pathy ; whatever checks the prosperity ol any part ol Christendom involves our own, as States, like men, are mutually dependent. It has, therefore, been his earnest endeavor to maintain peace and friendly relations with all. The wise theory of avoiding entangliug alli ances has exempted our government from ma ny complications, but an increasingdisposition has been manifested by some European powers to supervise and direct onr foreign policy, and to constrain us to adopt their views in adjust ing their balance of power. The United States can recognize no such interpolations of the established principles of international law, as temporary interests may suggest. This- has created distrust and occasional acts of disturb ing etfect upon our foreign relations; but our past and present history shonli give unques tionable assurance that our purposes are not aegressive or dangerous to other nations; our policy is essentially pacific. Europe is invited to look at home before she carps at our territorial expansion; she has no plea to growl at the legitimate exercise of sov ereign rights, when she has absorbed whole kingdoms, and claims control over "all the world and the rest ol" mankind." - Having become equal to the first maritime power of the earth, our foreign commerce must be carefully supervised and protected. War in Europe endangers neutral rights, and looking to the cherished doctrine that free ships make free goods, except when contra band of war, a proposition has been submitted to the European powers, embracing this doc trine, and that neutral property, not contra band, on enemy's ships, shall be exempt from confiscation. Russia promptly agreed to adopt these as a principles of international law; the other powers have not nctod finally, though no known objections have been urged. The two Sicilies are readv to enter such a convention, and Prussia approves it too, but wants the re nunciation of privateering also, to which we cannot listen, as privateers would be as indis pensable to us, in the aosenco ol a large n.ivv, as volunteers for land service, having no large army ; but we are willing to meet Europe on the ground of exempting private propertv from seizures by public oruizers as wt-l! as privateers. It i3 rccoioiiivud'jd to refund the duties and cancel the bonis on fish brought here by Brit ish 3tiljocts,aft, i the fishing grounds I. ave been made .iccessiblj to our citizens under the Re ciprocity Treaty with British Xorth America. A joint commission is recommended to set tle the boundary line between the Territory of Washington and the British possessions on the Pacific, which has led to difficulties, but can be amicably adjusted. Explanations, which it is hoped will be satis factory, have been made to France, relative to her Consul at San Francisco, no disrespect hav ing leen implied. France has unequivocally denied any design to deny the right ol transit to Minister Soule; and he has resumed his jour ney through her territory. The correspond ence on this subject is laid before Congress. .. Affairs with Spain remain in statu quo it is thought her present ministry are more favora bly inclined to comply with our just demands, restore Irirmony and preserve peace. It is proposed t give notice to Denmark of our intention to terminate the treaty of 182"5, with a view to claim exemption froau payment ol Sound tolls, which arc impliedly agreed to in that tieaty, and provides that our vessels shall pay no higher duties thau those of the most favored countries. The expedition to Japan has been success fully terminated, a treaty negotiated, and it is necessary to exchange ratifications and adopt commercial regulations. The unsettled state of Mexico has embar rassed our legation iu its earnest endeavor to procure & settlement for new cases ef wrongs and injuries to our citizens. All effective measures hrve been taken to frustrate, lawless enterprises and hostile expeditons against the Mexican States. The Commissioners to establish the new line between the United States and Mexico, under the treaty of Dec. 1853, are at work.: Treaties with the Ar;jerth:e Confufrit'orv Uruguay and Paraguay, h :ve seenrvd the fret navigation ol' the La Plata, but the same suc-cc-j2 has not attend-.'d the opening of the Am azonism pending negotiations with Brazil, it is hoped will eventually reach a favorable result. It is enforced as the duty of government to secure the transit of the isthmus against all danger of insurrection. All perplexing ques tions existing between us and Great Britian, concerning inter-oceanic coTiiiuiinic itions were supposed to be adjusted by the treaty )f Sept. j l'.i, 1S50, bat misntidcrstaiidiiigs reiuircd re- j aajustiiicnt, which Mr. Btichan in has endeav ored to accomplish, thus far without success. Grevtown was dvmoIihed as a piratical re sort. Those nations who complain more harshly than justly of this proceeding, have punished less olfending and more defenceless places than Grey town with greater severity, and with roc'.iless sacrifice of human life. The amount of revenue for the fiscal year from all sources was $73,540,705, and the ex penditures, exclusive of pavments on account of the public debt, $51, 018,259. Tl.epaymeJits in redemption of public debt, including inter est and premium, were 21 ..336.380. At the commencement of the year. ther.j wasa balance in the treasury of $21,912,802, and at the close $27,137,967. The recipt.s of the current year are estimated to exceed the expenses bv at least $15,O0,t00, and therefore the public debt will be paid off judiciously and economically as fast as possible. The outstanding debt is $4 ,9 j,4 36, redeemable within fourteen years. The recommendation for a reduction on the duties of imports, is renewed, as the reduction of duties, lor revenue and not protection, may be regarded as the policy of the government. Out going officers should be compelled to de liver up lwoksand papers, to prevent fr.iuds.c. An increased force in the Indian Territory is demanded. Two new regiments of ifantry. and two of mounted men are called for to meet present emergencies. An increase and reorganization of the Navy is advised. The existing laws for the maintenance of dicipline at sea, are presouted for consideration. The" Post Office expenditures for the year ending June 3 amounted to SS,710. 0'i7, and the receipts Sa,955,5S6. showing a deficiency of S2,753.321, andadiminutioo ol deficiency as compared with the previous year of 8381.756. Du'ing the fiscal year 11,070.935 acrus of public lands have been surveved.and 8,196 M7 brought jnto market. The" number of seres sold is 7'S.735. aridthe amount received therefor SO 235,533.
