DONT STOP MT. PAPER."
Don't atop my paper, pr'nter,
Don't strike my name oif yet
Ton know tbe times are stringent,
And dollars hard lo get;
But tag a little harder
Is what I mean to do,
And scrape the dimes together.
Enough for me and you.
I can't afford to drop it ;
I find it doesn't pay -To
do without a paper,
However others may )
. I bate to ask my neighbor
To give me theirs on loin
They don't just say, but mean it,
WLy don't you have your own f
Tor! can't te'l how we miss It,
If it, by any fate,
S hould bappon not to reach US,
Or come a little late ;
Then all is in a hubbub,
And things go all awry,
And, printer, if your married,
Ton know tbe reaiou why.
The children want their storiel,
And wife is anxious, too,
At first to glance it ovtr,
And then to read it through,
And I, too. read the leaders,
And con the bock reviews,
And scan the correspondence,
And every scrap of news.
I can not do without It,
It is no use to try,
For other people Ulie it.
And, printer, so must I ;
I, too, must keep me posted,
Aod know w bat's going on,
Or f? and be accouutcd
A fogy simpleton.
Then take it kindly, printer,
If pay be somewhat alow,
Ecr cash is not so plenty,
And wants not few, you know ;
Cut I must havQ my paper,
Cost what it may to me,
I'd rather dock my sugar,
And do without my tea.
So, printer, don't you stop it
Unless you want my Irown,
For here's the year's subscription,
And credit it right down,
And send the paper promptly
And regularly on,
And let it bring us weekly
Its welcomed benison.

Tim latest exploit of the San Francisco
reporter is the alleged expoture of a pro
cess for manufacturing hens eggs from del
eterious materials. According to- thj nar
rative the albumen is imitated by a mixture
of sulphur, carbon and falty nutter obtain
ed trom the slaughter hoiis s, and rendered
sticky with mucilage. Ths yolk is made ol
b'.ood, pb0phato of lime, magaesia, muri
ate of ammonia, oleic and margaris aciu,
and colored with crome yellow. The shells
are shaped by a blow-pipe from a mass of
eypsuta, plaster of Paris, carbonate of lime
and oxide of iron. Alter the shells arc
blown the albumen is forced in through a
hole iu the small end and sticks to the
sides; then the yolk is added, and after
being covered with more of the albumen
mixture the hole is scaled with cemcnl, the
complete egg is rubbed prsity smooth and
laid aside for packing. It is as-jrted that
many barrels of these eggs have been ship
