ROCKAWAY.
On old Long Island's sea-girt shore,
Many an hour I've whiled away,
In listning to the brcakers'roar,
That washed the beach at Rockaway,
Transfixed I've stood while nature's lyre
In one harinenious concert broke,
Till catching its promethean fire,
My inmost soul to rapture woke,
Oh ! On old Long Island's. 4c.
Oh ! how delightful 't is to stroll,
Where murmering wind and waters meet,
Marking the billows as they roll,
And break resistless at your feet;
To watch young Iris as she dips ' v
Her mantle in the sparkling dew,
Till chased by Sol, away she trips,
O'er the horrizon's quivering blue.
Oh ! On old Long Island's, Ac
To hear the startling night winds sigh,
As dreamy twilight lulls to sleep,
"While the pale moon reflects from high,
Her image in the mighty deep;
Majestic scene where naturo dwells,
Profound with everlasting love,
While her unmeasured music swells,
The vaulted firmament above.
Oh ! On old Long Island s, Ac.

A STEAMBOAT YASN.
A fine western steamer, of the largest class,
was ploughing her way down 6trearn with a
fttU head' on. The time was early morning ;
lie eun had not vet CCoWd his fiery beams in
the murky waters of the Mississippi; few of tii?
passengers were astir; and the boat, quiet
and still, save hes regular scream from her
iron throat, was making fine headway.
Suddenly the engineers bell rang out a furi
ous and alarming summons, which, being trans
lated into the vernacular, meant, 'slow her.'
The man of steam obeyed the mandate ; and
with his hand upon the lever awaited anxious
ly the next call.
It soon came, and louder yet, cstop her !'
Some trouble ahead,' thought the engineer;
but hardly had the idea passed through his
mind, when the busy bell again pealed forth,
Back her!'
Steam was let off In an instant, and seizing
the lever, the man commenced working the en
gine by hand; but the wheel had not yet com
pleted the first retrogado revolution, when a
louder tintinnabulation tinkled out successive
ly : 'Go ahead !' 'Slow her !' 'Back her !'
Go ahead!' Having obeyed the command,
and supposing all was right at last, ho quitted
his post for a moment aud . stepped out upon
the guards to see what the trouble had been,
when suddenly the ever-busy bell again was
heard, 'Slow her !
Before he could put his hands npon the
screw, the-bell again ordered, 'stop her!' im
mediately after, 'back her,- and go ahead!'
Instead of going ahead, the engineer scratch
ed his own, and then applying1 his mouth to
the speaking-tube, be addressed the pilot thus :
but stop, let us turn for a moment to the pilot,
and see what was going on in his dominions.
This gentleman had been but a few minutos
at his post, and was not fairly awake when the
bell commenced its mysterious operations; but
the strange language of-the steam-pipe excited
his attention, and bo had arrived at the con
clusion that something was wrong, at the same
moment that tbe identical Idea had forced it
self npon the the engineer ; so, applying his
mouth to his end of thube, the following re
marks went up and down simultaneously :
'What in thunder are you about down there ?'
WlIAT IX THIXDRR ARE YOU ABOUT UP THERE ?'
Having, like two vessels about commencing
an engagement, fired these shots across their
bows, the twain went immediately into action,
as iollows :
Pilot. Who told you to 'stop her' and
'back her V '
Engineer. You did ; what did you ring tao
bell for twenty times?'
Pilot. You must be a nice fellow to trust.
Mr. 'Kettles,' to get diunk before sunrise.
Call your mato and turn in.
Engineer. Drunk! Drunk yourself; I hav
n't had a drop, and youre just lying drunk,
that's what it is.
'Pilot. Look here, 'old Kettles,' hold on a
Lit, and I'll be down on you liko a thousand
of brick. i
Engineer. Don't trouble yourself to come
down. I'll be up to you in two shakes, and
then we'll see who is drunk and who is not.
Now this backing and filing had excited the
attention of officers aud crew, and as the pilot
and engineer, having obtained relief, met half
way on the 'boiler deck, captain and clerk,
t mate and steward, bar-keeper and chamber
maid, all hastened to the Mine post of observ
ation, and ere the two combatants could join
issue, they were seized and held, and an in
vestigation of the the affair was entered into.
While all this Was in progress, neither boat
nor bell had been touched, but the same sing
ular succession of orders were going on, and the
two assistants, above and below, were medita
ting a little affair of their own,when that of their
principals had been satisfactorily concluded.
The mystery was apparently past solution,
but the captain bcthonght him of a possible
cause, and stepping to a state-room, in the
social hall,' kicked tho door open, and there
stood a lanky young Tenneseean, who had em
barked at Memphis the previous night, very
actively engaged in jerking at a cord that rau
through his room in the further corner.
Seizing him by tho, collar the captain de
mandod, 'What the d 1 are you about V
ADout ?' answered the Tenneseean, 'why,
don't you see I'm ringing for my boots V
Pulling the wrong cord, that was all!
K7 'What bavo you done to further human
progress?' asked a sententious philosopher one
' day of Jenkin's. Jenkin's reply was clear and
decisive. I'vo produced seven boys and two
: girls, sir.' . The philosopher departed, and for
he first time in his lire- thought. "
rjy A Paddy, writing from the west, says
"pork Is so plenty that every third man you
meet is a hog."
JONATHAN AND HIS LADY LOVE.
We heard a rich anecdote the other day,
which we think will bear publication :
Jonathon loved Sallie, and after many mis
givings, concluded to ask her to have him.
So bracing himself for tho occasion, he called
to 6ee her, just as the 'old folks' were retiring,
preferring to 'pop the question' when nono were
near to witness his confusion, save his love.
Jonathan Miss Sallie, as you love me, and I
does the same thing, I've 'eluded to 'pose to you
for us to hitch teams, and if you love me, you'll
not say anything else but 'Yes, nothin' shorter.
Al that moment, Sallies's countenance dark
ened, her whole frame trembled with great e
motion, then resting her elbows on her lap, the
big tears trickled from beneath her long lashes.
Jonathan (Supposing the intensity of her
love to be the canse of her violent emotions :)
'What in the name of all nature makes you
carry on 60? If you love me and want to
marry me, why on earth don't you say just
that one thing V
Sallie (Casting at him a fond, lovieg glance
and fairly shrieking :) 'Look a-here Jonathan,
gosh, if you'd a eaten them green apples,
what I did, last night, you'd a known what's
the matter with mo. Gosh how it hurts 1
Up to Sxuff. It is suggested that the story
of a magnificent box, inlaid with diamonds , com
posing a crown, a cross and the letter X, recent
ly sent by Louis Napoleon to an ancient friend
and crony in New York, having been seized for
debt before reaching the hands of the party for
Whom it was destined, and sold by"Cl!?n. LJ
the Sheriff, was a ''speculation" to make it
bring doublo its value. Great country this!
Ox the. Wkoxg Tkaix. A few nights since
some young men, going from Columbus to
Cinciunatti, Oliio, in the cars, were getting
rather noisy and profane, when a gentleman
in a white cravat tapped one of them on the
shoulder, with the remark, "young man do you
know you are on the road to hell?" "That's
just my luck, I took a ticket for Cinciunatti,
and I've got on the wrong train."
A Beautiful Exmr.ssiox. A 2lain and un
schooled man, who had receivL-d his education
principally beneath the open sky, in the field,
and the forest, and who had wielded the axe,
more than the pen, while speaking of children,
remarked with true and beautiful simplicity:
"The little chips are nearest the heart.!'
CP" "Ah, Miss Caroline," said a Sundy
School teacher to one of his class, ''what do

"I suppose sir," smartly and pertly replied
Miss Coroline, "I should have been an orphan"
K7 "Madam, has your piauo an seolian at

wife of a man who appoarad to live up to'if

"Hush!" whispered Seth in his car, "it has

Sam dropped the subject.
E7"A wag in Xew York, standing at tho
corner of Oliver and Cherry streets, opposite
to ono of tho "Catskill ice" carts, drew a
piece of chalk lrom his pocket and marked M

it read "Cats kill mice."
Alas, the Fooit Editor! You may insert a

hearing about that.
