A 1ITTLE MORE CIDER.
I lovo do white gal and de Mack,
And I lovo all cfi-rest ;
I love de gal Tor loving me,
But I love myself do best.
I feel eo very thirsty,
I've just been down to supper, - . -
I drank four pails of applejack,
And a tab of apple butter..
Che rut And a little more cider do,
A little more cider do, .
A little more cider for Miss Dine,
A little more cider do.
When first I saw Miss Snowflake,
In Chestnut street I spied her,
And oh how happy I'd have been,
Just to have been beside her ;
She winked at me, I blinked at her,
Until she crossed de street, -' '
And turning round, she smiled, and said,
A little more cider sweet.
A little more cider, Jto.
I wish I was an apple,
Mi Snowflake was another,
Oh what a pretty pair we'd make,
Upon the tree together;
She smile at me, I'd smile at her,
We both would look so neat.
But oh how happy we should be
When squashed in cider sweet.
A little more cider, &o.

SOFT-SOAFllffG IN THE LAES.
We clip the following from a letter of the
Yankee correspondent of the Galveston News :
Well, you see, I put up with a first-rate good
natured fellow that I met at a billiard table. I
went in, and wa3 introduced to his wife, a fine,
fat woman looked as though she lived on
langhin', her face was so full of fun. After a
while after we'd talked about my girl, and
about the garden, and about the weather in
comes threo or four children, laughin' and
skippin' as merry as crickets. There was no
candle lit, but I started for my saddlebags, in
which I put a lot of sugar candy for the chil
dren as I went along.
"Come here, said I, "you little rogue, and
tell me what your name is."
The oldest came to me, and says,"3Iy name's
Peter Smith." '
"And wfiat's your name V
"Bob Smith."
The next said his name was Bill Smith, and
the fourtli said his name was Tommy Smith.
I'gave 'em sngar candy, and old Mrs. Smith
was so tickled that she laughed all the time.
Mr. Smith looked on, but didn't say much.
"Why," says I, "Mrs. Smith, I would not
take a good deal for them four boys, if I had
'em ; they are so beautiful and sprightly."
"Xo," said she, Irtughin', ''I set a good deal
on 'em ; bat we spoil 'em too much."
"No, no," says I, "they're rale well-behaved
children and by gracious !" says I, pre
tending to be startled by a striking resem
blance between the boys and the father, and
looking at Mr Smith, "I never did see any
thing equal to it," says I ; "your own eyes,
mouth, forehead, and perfect picture of hair,
air," tapping the oldest on the pate. I thought
Mrs. Smith would have died a langhin' at that;
her arms fell down at her side, and she shook
the whole house a langhin'.
"Do you think so, Colonel Jones," said she,
looking tovrarda Mr. Smith ; and I thought
she'd go off in a fit.
"Yes," says I, "I do raelly."
"Ha, ha, ha!" says Mr. Smith, kind o' half
laughin', "you're too Lard on me, now, with
your jokes."
"I ain't jokin' at all," says I ; "they are
handsome children, and do look wonderfully
like you."
Just thea a gal brought a light in, and I'll
be darned if th? little brats didn't turn out to
be nigger3 every one of them and their
hair was as curley as the blackest nigger's.
Mr. ind Mrs. Smith never bad any children,
end they sort of petted them niggers as play
things. I never felt as streaked as I did when I
found-out how things stood. If I hadn't kiss
ed the nasty things, I could a got over it ; but
kissin' 'em showed that I was soft soapin' 'em
all the while. IIow to get over the scrape I
didn't know. Mrs. Smith laughed so hard
when she saw how confused I was, that she al
most suffocated.
A little afterwards, there was a whole fami
ly of relations arrived from the city, and turn
ed the matter off; but the next morning I
could see that Mr Smith didn't like the re
membrance of what I said, and I don't believe
he'll vote for me when the election comes.
I 'spect Mrs. S. kept the old fellow under the
Joke for some time.
IIow Folks Differ. We chew tobacco, the
Ilindoo takes to lime, while the Patagonian
finds contentment in a bite of guano. The
children of this country delight in candy, those
oi Sirica in rocs salt, a. i renenman goes
his length for fried frogs, while an Esquimaux
Indian things a stewed candle the climax of
dainties. The South Sea Islanders differ from
all those, their favorite dish being boiled cler
gymen, or a roasted missionary.
Snooks wonders where all the pillow
cases go to. lie says that lie never asked a
girl what she was making, when she was en
gaged in white sewing, without having in an
Bwer, "A pillow-case." "A gentleman once
asked a young lady of bis acquaintance, "What
are you making, Miss Knapp ?" "Knapp-sack,"
was the quick reply.
Irish Ijckocesce. "Molly," said a lady to
her servant, "I think you'll never set the river
on fire." "Indade, ma'am," innocently re
plied Molly, "I'd never be after doing any
thing so wicked I'd be burning up all the
little fishes."
. Iaiso Coolsiss. "IIow is coal this morn
leg," said a purchaser to an Irishman in i
oal yard. "Black as iver,"- replied Pat, re
spectfully taking off the remains of his hat.- t
O Whether you work or play, do it in eanv
est; but never be unemployed a moment.

GRAHAM'S 31 AGAZINES W " Vol.
UME. 1S;'4. In anncancing his reading t
receive orders for the New Volume, the editor dots
not know he has any very brilliant ideas to hold
out in large capitals to dazzle people's eyes--,;Graham"
will bo pretty much what it has been
the last volume, with some improvements which
experience suggests. No number will contain lew
than 100 pages of matter, and tho readers of '-Gr
ham" may rely with great confidence upon
the volume shall contain
OVER TWELVE HUNDRED PAGES !
Of the very best reading'maTter that capita
command from oiiginal sources, or taste select from
the vast mass of available material.
The aim of the editor will be to produce a prb.
lication whieh sholl be valuable in matter, and
choice in ta.,te and style; and he flatters himself
from the known talents of his contributors, that t
will be able to present as many good original ar
ticles to his readers as any publicatjon of "he day
He shall not, however, hesitate to publish, from
time to time, articles from English authors, and
translations from the best German and French
writers, provided the pieces have never before np.
pcaredin print in this country. Essavs on imp-.?!
tant Political Subjects will likewise "be inserted
and criticisms on the Literature of America tni
the movements cf the Age. Tho Leview I)or,Srt
mect, in which a large and liberal spirit f 'crit
icism will alwaysbc maintained. will be exundtd.
For the defeneeof American Diterature the editor
v, ill always be ready ; the maiutainance of a cor
rect tone in the Magazine, he will, if possible, bs
still more watchful.

FIXE ST ELL l'l.ATK IS APl'ITIUN' TO Til H CIIOItB
DESIGNS AND KNGll AVIN'GS OF DEVfiKC.X,
who will supply illustrations for the text in tin
body of the book. The aim cf the editor will nrt
be so much to increase the number of his engrav
ings, as to secure fur those he publishes the ut
most finish the arti-t can give them ; for common
wood-cuts arc so easily multiplied, that the most
indifferent publication may outrank iu dreary dig.
play the choicest periodical.
The Editor docs not feci, that with Lis own rea
ders, he can iuerease his claims to rcspeot by in
sisiing on any very great superiority cf -Graham'
over several similar publications, but thinks hs
may safely confide in their friendship for the
Magazine, and iu its past management for it3 pre
sent list, and snch iuerease as naturally grows out
of an extended circulation in a country whero
readers are multiplying so rapidly.-
Of the January number the first edition will bo
3'J.flOO copies, ::nd the editor trusts his old friends
will be so prompt in renewing old clubs, and ex
tending the list among new ones, that the Crst
oditiou sIjp.H be but half os what the year will ul
timately establish, as the permanent circulation of
'Graham."
