When 4be snow-flakes softly rattle
On the darkened window-pane,
And the night-winds moan and murmur
.la a wild and fitful strain—
Oh. bow welcome is the cheerful,
Brightly burning, ruddy light,
Glowing from the evening fire-side,
Glowing, sparkling, warm and bright.
How the mellow beams are dancing
Ou the ceiling in the hall,
E'en within the heart's dark corners
With a gentle glance they fail,
And io the clear sod pleasant radiance,
As in waves of gold it plays,
Melts the soul that's filled with sadness,
Lights the eve with radiant rays.
Loved ones meet arossul the are -side,
Through the dreary winter eve,
While the storm without is wildest,
Tales of other days to weave,
Songs that to the-heart are dearest,
Breathed upon the hallowed air,
Voices gay in mirth are mingled,
"Household words" are sweetest there
.How, the Aged and the weary,
Look back to the happy hearth,
By whose merry light they started,
Ere they tasted aught but mirth.
Though the glow has long been faded,
Brighter then of yore it burns, .
When the Writ, worn with wefidering,
To that cherished vision turns.
Then when falling snow-flakes rattle,
On the darkened window pane,
Let es gather round the fire-side,
Heedleu of the night-wind's reign.
Ana when Life's cold winter cometh,
'Mid the darkness . and the storm,
We'll again, hi Memory's chamber,
It around the fire-side warm.'

JOHN CLIMES, AND HIS FORTUNE.
I=
" Never mind tho house, John, we've
got one of our own," whispered John
Clarke's wife.
She was a rosy little thing, only
twenty summers old. Ilow brigittly
end bewitchingly she shone —a /Star
amid the sombre company.
But•what in the world has he left
me?" muttered John Clarke. " I be
lieve he hated me—l believe they all
hate me."
" Hush, dear!"
" I bequeath to John Clarice, my dear
ly beloved nephew," read the grim at
torney, "as a reward for his firmness
in resisting temptation the.last two
years, and his determination to improve
in all acceptable things, my ono-horso
shay, which has stood in m 7 barn over
twenty-five fears, requesting that ho
shall repair it, or cause it to be repaired
in a suitable manner."
That was all. Some of the people
gathered there tittered, all seemed to
enjoy tho confusion of the poor young
man. His eyes flashed fire, he trem
bled excessively; poor little Jenny fair
ly cried.
"To think," she said to herself,
" how hard lie has tried to be good, and
that is all ho thought of it
" Wish you joy," said a red-headed
youth, with a grin, as he came out of
the room.
J ohn sprang up' to collar the follow,
but a little white hand laid on his coat
sleeve restrained him.
"Let them triumph, John, it won't
hurt you," said Jenny, with her sunny
smile • " ?lease don't notice them for
my mike.
"Served him right," said Susan
Spriggs, the niece of the old man just
dead, and to whom he had left all his
silver, ".nerved him right for marrying
that ignorant goose of a Jenny Brazier..
I suppose he calculated a good deal jou
the old gentleman's generosity." 7o
which she added, in a whisper thatonly
her own heart heard, "He might have
married me. He had the chant*, and I
loved him better• than any one else—
better than that pretty little fool, Jen
ny Brazier."
"Nov we will see how deep his good
ness is," said a maiden aunt, thro' her
nose • "he stopped short in wickedne ss
just because he expected a fortune from
my poor, dear brother. Thanks to
massy that he left me fire hundred do-
Jars. :Now i can git that new carpet;
but we'll see how much of a change
there is in John Clarke—ho always Was
an taw of wickedness."
I , Well, I guess John Clarko'll have to
be contented with his little ten feet
shanty," said the father of Susan
Spriggs to good old Deacon Joe Hemp.
" IN ell, 1 reckon ho is eontent—if he
ain't lie ought to be, with that little
jewel of a wife she's bright enough to
make any four walls shine," was the
Deacon's reply.
".Pshaw : vou're all crazy about that
gal. 'Why she ain't to be compared to
my Susan. Susan plays on the forty
piano like sixty, and manages a house
first-rate."
" Bless you, neighbor Spriggs,
rather have that innocent, blooming
face to smile at, mo when I waked up of
mornings, than all the forty-piano gals
you can scare up 'tureen here and the
Indies—fact :"
I ,‘ I'd like to know what you mean 7"
exclaimed lir. Spriggs, firing up.
"Jest what I say," replied good old
Deacon Joe, coolly.
" Well, that John Clarke'll die on the
gallows yet; mark my words," said
Spriggs, spitefully.
" ThatJoiin Clarke will make one of
our best citizens, and go to the legisla
ture yet," replied old Deacon Joy, com
placently.
•" Doubt it :"
"Yes, may- bo you do, and that's a
protty way to build up a yoriog fellow,

eiliter'while he's a running, I take it;
and jf he ain't mad they're sure to drive
him so. Wby don't you step.np to kiln
and say, 'John, I'm glad you're going
right now, and I've got faith in you,
and if you want any help, why come to
me and I'll put 'you through ?' That's
the way to do the business, Mr.
SPriggls-"
" Well, I hope you'll do i t, that's all,"
replied Spriggs, sulkily.
" I hope I shall, and I'm bound to,
any way. if I have the chance. Fact
is, he's such a smart little wife that he
don't really need any help."
" a pity then that brother
Jacob left him that 000.hortio shay."
" You needn't laugh at that; old Ja
cob never did nothing without a mean
ing to it. That old shay may help him
to bo a great man yet. Fact is, I think
myself if Jacob had a left•him money it
might have been•tho ruin of him. Less
things than a one-horse shay has made
a man's fortis'."
" Well, I'm glad you think so much
of biro; I don't."
"No," muttered Deacon Joe, as his
neighbor turned away, " but if he had
married your raw•boned darter that
plays on the forty-piano, he'd a beemali
rigtt, and no mistake."
" A one-horse shay !" said the minis
ter, langhing; " what a fortune :"
And so it went, from mouth to mouth.
None of the relativoe—some already
rich—had offered the podrest man
amongthem—theownerortheone-horse
shay—a dollar of the bequeathment
left to him or to her;
,but they had
rather rejoiced in his disappointment.
The truth is, everybody had prophe
sied that John Clarke, a poor, mother
less boy, would come to ruin, and they
wanted th© pmphoey to prove a true
ono. lie had, in his Youth, been wild
and wayward, and somewhat profligate
in the early years of manhood ; but his
old uncle had encouraged turn to re
form—held out hopes to which he had
hitherto been a stranger, and the love
of the sweet young Jenny Brazier com
pleted, as it seemed, his reformation.
Jenny never appeared so lovely as
bile did on that unfortunate day of the
readin g cif the will, after they had re
turned to the poor little house that
was Jenny's own.
" No matter, John," she said cheer
fully, " you will rise in spite of them.
T wouldn't let them think I was in the
least discouraged, that will only please
them too well. We are doiug nicely
now, and you know if they do eut the
railroad through our bit of land, the
money will sot us up quite comfortably; l
isn't our home a happy one, if -it
small ? And oh ! John by and bye !"
An eloquent, blush—a glance towards
her work-basket, out of which peeped
the most delicate needlework, told the
story—that ever now story di n nneence,
beauty and helplessness, that brings
cares akin to angels' work.
For once, John Clarke stopped the
gossip's mouth. lie hold I n s bead
up manfully—worked steadily at his
trade, and every step seemed a surd
advance, and an upward ono.
Baby was just sit months old when
the corporation paid into Jiihn Clarke's
hand the sum of six hundred dollars
for the privilege of laying a track thro
his one little field.
"A handsome baby, a beautiful and
industrious wife, and six hundred dol
lars," thought John with an honest ex
ultatidn, " well, this is living 1"
"'John," said his wife, rising from
her work, "look edt." •
lle did, and saw the old one-horse
shay dragged by a stalwart negro.
" Massa says as how the old barn is
gwino to ho pulled down, so Ire sent
your shay," said the'Airican.
"Thank him for•nothing," said John,
bitterly, but a glitneact his wile remov
ed the evil spirit, and a better one smil
ed out of his eyes.
"John, you can spare a little money
now to havo the old shay axed up, can't
you? You ought to; according to the
wilt," said Jenny.
" The old trash r' muttered John.
."But you could at least soli it for
what the repairs would cost," said Jen
ny, in her winning way.
Yes, I suppose I could."
" Then I'd havo it, done, and bless
me, I'd keep it, too. You've got a good
horse, and cap have the old shay made
quito stylish for baby and me to ride
in. Shan't we shine? " '
"Well, I'll send it over to Ilosmer's,
to-morrow, and see what he will do it
for."
"Look bore! Mr. Hemmer wants
you comeright over to the shop I" shout
ed the carriage-maker's apprentice, at
the top of his lungs ; " old Deacon Joe's
there, ar.' says he's right down glad—
golly, its hundreds, and hundreds, And
hundreds, and hno—"
"Stop, boy ! .what'in the world does
ho moan, Jenny ?." cried John Clarke,
putting the baby in the cradle face
..ownwards.
"My patience! John, look at that
child—precious darling ! I'm sure I
don't know, John; I'd go right over
and see," said Jenny, by snatches
righting the baby, "it's his fun, I sup
pose."
ifTain't any fan, I tell ye," said the
boy, while John hurried on Lis coat and
fait; " my gracious !sguess you'll say
it ain't fan when you come to see them
'ere gold things and the bins."
This added wings to John Clarke's
speed, and in a moment he stood
breathless in the old coachmaker's
shop.
`Wish you joy, my tine frier !". cried
Deacon Joe.
" Look hero--what'll you take for
that old shay ? I'll give you four tt?ou•
ward dollars.'" cried the ooaohm akar,

man, sir, and by Goorgo I'm glad of it;
you deserve to be."
The carriage-maker shook his hand
heartily.
What do yon suppose were the con
sternation, delight, gratitude—the wild
joy . that filled the heart of Clarke ;
when be found the old shay filled with
gold and bank bills i 1 mean tho cush
ions, the - linings, and every place where
theycould bo placod without danger
of usjury—thioves never would have
condeseendod to the one-horse shay.
Five thousand five hundred dollars
in all ! Poor John 1 or rather rich
John his head watt neatly tamed. It
rewired all the balance Of Jenny's nice
equipoise of character to keep his mato
tic.brniu from spinning like - a humming
top. Now ho could build tvo houses
like the ono his uncle had bequeathed
to his rod-headed cousin, who had wish
ed him joy when the will was read—
the dear old uncle ! What genuine
sorrow he" felt as ha thought of the
many times he had heaped reproaches
upon his memory !
Imagine, if you can, dear render, the
peculiar feelings of those kind friends
who bad prophesied that John Clarke
would come to grief. At first, Deacon
Joe proposed to take the old shay just
as it was—linings stripped, bits ofeloth
hanging—and upon a tin trumpet pro
claim the good tidings to the whole
town, taking especial pains to stop be
fore the house of Mr. Spriggs, and
blow:ng loud enough to drown all the
forty-pianos in the universe; but that
was vetoed by John's kind little W;fe.
"La ! they'll know it soon enough,"
she said, kissing the baby; "I woudift
hurt their feelings."
They did know of it, and a few years
after, when John Clarke lived in a big
house, they all voted for him to go to
the " legislator." So much for that old
one•horse shay.—Aterson's _May.

New et:2Fr Boat.—A new curious
ocean stcanier4s now being built at Bal.
tumors by liessare. Winans, the distin
guished locomotive engineers. The
hull is of the forth of an immense cigar,
180 feet long; and 16 feet in, diameter,
without kW or fist deck, and is built
very strong, for the purpose of being
driven through the wafes. She is to
hive neither masts nor spars, and the
only thing to bo visible above deck is
the smoke stack and ventilator.. She is .
to have four high pressure locomotive
etrginos, which are to drive a propeller
amidships: Every part of the - vessel is
to be of iron, well braced, and fp divi
ded into water-tight compartments as
to be a life preserver. She is expected
to be ready in six weeks, and to make
her first trip to Now York, and from
thence to Liverpool.

the wearing of crinoline incompatible

of that denomination. At a camp-meet

A Verdict as is a Verdict.--A Mobile
(Ala.) paper says that, an inquest was
recently held in that city, on the body
of a man who died from taking an over
dose of vegetable pills. On opening
the body, the interior was found to be
one huge cabbage, but dead, to its core,
from confinement and want of water—
a beverage which the patient, unfortu
nately, never drank. The jury retard
ed a verdict of "quits." " Quits, gen
tlemen!" ex6lairned the dismayed Coro•
ner—"never heaqi of such a thing.—
What do you mean'" " Why," replied
the ft.rcman, " we find that, if the cab
bage killed the man, the man most cer

ain't quits, blow me:"
