How Lumpkin's Wife got a Cradle.
DT PETER PEPPERTON, EMI
"When a woman will; the will, and therO's an
end on't."6— Vide any place you choose to look.
Miss Louisa Stubbs married Mr. Lump
kin, a fine, handsome young gentleman,
whom she had so long adored as the choicest
pattern of the opposite sex, and firmly belie
ved that her whole life Would how glide
along as Pleasantly as_any dreemcif fairy
land. Mr. Luinpkin had sworn that she was
a pertect_angel—good, charming, beautiful;
arid without the shadow of fault of any kind
—whoth he should over deem it his privi
lege as well as Laity to please and gr‘ ably, by
seal( nig to fulfil her every and most trivial
wish. %Veil, during the next twelve months
lie kept his vow, and she was the happiest
of women—seeming to enjoy pleasure while
basking in the sunshine of her smiles—
every whim of hers was granted tnimurrnui
ingly, lest the smiles should be changed to
frowns, and lie in consequence be rendered
distractedly miserable. Though following a
Liburious mechanical business, ie never.
came home so tired but that he was willing
to run to the stole, split wood, draw water
Dorn the cistern, in fact make himself gene
rally useful, as 'every loving husband should.
As might naturally be expected i _his wale
Boated on hint - more and more every day,
and considering that such unequalled affec
tion on his part deserved some suitable re
turn, arid in due time presented him with a
beautiful daguerreotype portrait of himself,
and filling the cup of his happiness to the
brim. • 01 course, she dien,expected that he,
if anvihinrveould beginsiojnereavx - in afire
lion, and gratify her wishetto a greater ex
tent than before. But, alas this expec
tation, like a great many others in this sub
lunary world of blighting hopes, it was
doomed. to be disappointed ; Mr. prripkin
began to discover that it was entirely toollar
for him to gu to the stole—that it was non
sense to ask him to draw water, when his
wile could do it just as well hersell—that he
was too tried to attend to the task of splitting
wood. Bad as was this change, however,
Mrs. Lumpk in contrived :o bear it uncornJ
plainingly : but when was added the sin of
denying her divers articles she wanted, on
the luolish plea that they were entirely un
necessary, and that he had something else to
do with his money than let it go in such ex
travagance, the scale at length fell'lrom - her
eyes, and she learned the alarming tact that
even she must look to having her wishes
greatly thwarted.
Mr. Lumpkin's baby, like all other babies,
had a tendency to be cross, and that general
ly at such times as it was most devotely to
be wished that it v oild be.quiet ; therefore,
Mrs. Lumkin wished try procure a cradle
wherein it might be rocked to gentle lullaby,
and desired Mr. Lumkin to purchase one
without delay. But; Mr. Lumkin, in common
with a great many men, had certain opinions
of hi; own, of which he adhered 'with the
most dogmatic stubborness and. would almost
as loon have thought to pact with P. limb, as
to acknowledge them to be wrong. One of
these opiniors was, based on tire singular
idea that it was the Silliest piece of nonsense
in the world, to accomodate babies with the
luxury of a motile; as it they were froth the
first used to being laid jta bed, they would
sleep just as well and be far more hoalthy.
Besides : he contended that a cradle was an
unsightly plebe of lurniturehich piece ol
Minium, was everlastingly in the way,
and could never by any artifice be stored
in any hole, nook or corner, whatever.—
Such being his peculiar views on the point,
Lumkin was again di4ppointed ; for
despite her daily mailings during three Mor
tal mouths, morning, %wand. night, Mr.
Lumkin remaineil.firto to his resolve.
One day at the entlroFthat 1111110; Mr, Lunt ! .

have his own way.—
It was a beautiful sktht to see the majestic
air with which he threw himself on tha t
cushion, the moment he had settled it nice
1Y in the chair, and elevating his feet on the
table, leaned back in the very fullest luxury
of indolent enjoyment. He had hall a‘Kitton

"John," said his wife, with a very teasing
smile on her countenance, as they eat at
breakfast the following morning,•'l dreamed
last night that you gill refused to buy me a
cradle, and as dreame,alwayis go by contra
ries, I know that you have concluded to buy ;
one. Will you.send it honie to day, love?'
'Ne, nor any other time,' replied Min, bi
ting savagely at his buttered toast.
think yob will, John, love,' responded
his wile wttn the same teasing smile (only a
little more so)—indeed I am sure you
You are only letting on you won't so as to
send it home unexpectedly, and cause me an
-agreeable surprise' And she looked up into
his face so archly, and at the same tirce so
sweetly tantalizing, that had he not • been
more than usually out of temper, he roust
have clasped her in his arms and hugged
and kissed her on the spot.
But he was out of humor, and so failed to
sieze the blissful s opportunity, (ungrateful dog
that he was) tett snatching his hat as though .
wistful to tear Irdi`in twain at the very least,
he repastied that he would not buy a cradle, •
no, he would—something lost in the stem
ping of his boots—before he could be whee
dled into any such nonsense.
All that day Mr. Lumkin nursed his mar.
tified feelings Warmly, and at night returned
home with a I lultPteteirnination to spread •
himself out and take a bigger stiff' in hie
chair than ever. .But, ye gods and little
fishes! what an unexpo:ted,.diriappointment • t
awaited-hitn. There, before his wide star
ing eyes, asleep arid calmly gentle ass sum
mer's day, lay their tendur little lute bran - I
reclining in the rocking chair!
Reader, didst thou ever see a misetly mafi
stoop to pick up a gold pi-ce from die gut
ter, and discover it to be merely brass metal?
Then hest thou seen the exact lac simile of
Mr.Lamkin'scouniluste, Is he stood trans.
fixed before his wilei genious make-shift
for a cradle: - .
To bed Mr. Lumkin retired that night,
without enjoying the luxury of a single mo
ment's 101 l on the cushion. On the follow
ing even mg it was the same, and the one al
ter that; it seemed us though Mrs. Lumkin
must keep the baby purposely awake in the
day time, it remained so sound asleep du
ring the hours its lather was at home. And
such another twisting about on the hard
wood bottomed chairs as the unfortunate Mr.
Lumkin performed, in the vain attempt to
gain arketisy posture, was surely never be
before seen. It was a wonder how Mrs.
Lumkin contrived to keep from laughing out
right while witnessing the poor fellow's mis
erable evolutions; but she did, and appeared
to.be fully imbued with the belief that every
thing was going on just as it should.
. On the fourth morning alter the new order
'of things. Mrs. Luinkin was summoned by a
knock at the door, which knock proved to
have emanated from a carman, whose oar
was standing neat the curb in front of the
house, and who 'asked if that was Mr. Lum•
kin's. -
'Yes,' was the responie.
, Then I've got a cradle for ytni, I believe;'
returned the carmaii,and proceeded to lift out
a handsmne willow one from the vehicle,
and placed it in the parlor.
'1 knew it r exclaimed Mts. Lumkin, car
rying, the cradle to the kitchen, and as she
laid the dialling little sweet within its corn•
Sortable embrace, alter arranging the bed and
clothing she had already confidently prepar
ed. in readiness for the present occasion, she
continued :
'Mem his dear, good,!kind heart! 1 knew ,
he'd buy me a cradle 11 knew he would.'
It is on record that there was more hug.
ging end kissing 'tribe Lumkin residence on
that same evening, than ever occurred be.
fore outside the fiat thralls months ot married
life.

WHY I LEFT TEE ANVIL.,.
BY BLIND BUIUUTr, THE LEARNED BLACKSNIT . IO 4
•4
I see it, you would ask me what I have to
say for myself for dropping the hammer and
taking up the quill, as a member of your
profession. I. will be honest now, and tell
you the whole story. I was transposed from
-the anvil to the edih , r's Chan by the genius
el machinery. Don't - smile, friends, it is
even so. I had stood and looked for hours
on those thoughtltss, iron intellects, those
iron-angered, sober, supple automatons, as
theyeaught up a bale of cotton, and twirled
it .in a twinkling of an eye, into a witi,rlWind
of whizzing shreds, and laid it at my feet in
folds of sno.v white cloth, ready for the, use
of our moat voluptiuma antipodes. They
were wonderful things, those looms and
spindles; but they could not spin thoughts;
there -was no pttribute of Divinity in them*,
and 1, adniired them nothing more. They
were exclusively curious, but I could esti
mate the whole compass of their doing and
destiny in linger power; so Lam away and
left them spinning—cotton. ' •
One day I was turning my anvil beneath a
hot iron, and busy with the thought, that
there was as much intellectual philosophy to
my hammer_ any of the entirety a•go
ing in modern times, v. hen a most unearthly
screaming Winced my ears; l stepped to the
door, and there it was, the great Iron Horse !
Yes, he had come, looking dor all ilie world
like the great Dragon we read of in Scripture,
harnessed to half a living world and just lan•
ded on the earth, where he stood braying in
surprise and indignation at the 'base use' to
which had been turned. I saw the gigantic
fiezaped move with a power that made the
earth tremble for miles. I saw the army of
human beings gliding with the velocity of
the wind over the iron neck, and 'droves of
cattle traveling is their stables-at 'ihe rate of
twenty miles an hour towards their city
slaughter.house. It was wonderful. The
little busy beei , Nvinged inachinety of the cot
ton factory dwindled into -insignificance be
fore it. Montrone beast of passage and
burden ! it devoured the intervening dis
tance, and wedded the cities together ! But
for its turnace heat aVtor. sinew's,' it was
nothing but a beast, an enordthus aggrega
tion of—horse power. And I went back to
the Mtge with unimlitired reverence for the
intellectual philosophy of my hammer.
Passing along - the street one afternoon 1
-heard a nuiee in an old building, as of some
one puffing a pair of bellows. 'So without
more ado, I sterritid in, end-there, in a cor
ner of a room, I saw the chef-d'amvre of all
the machinery that has ever been invented
since the birth cf Tubal Cain. In its con
struction it was an simple and unassuming
as a cheese press. It went with a lever—.
while lever, longer, sooner than that with
which Archimedes promised to lilt the world,
'lt is a printing press,' said a boy standing
by the ink trough, with a cueless turban of
brown paper on his head. 'A printing p ass!'
I quered musingly to myself. 'A punt'
press?, what do you print!' I asked. 'Print.'
said the boy, staring at me, doubtfully, 'why
,we print thoughts.' • 'Print thoughts P j
slotly repeated after him ; and we stood
TOoking for a moment at each other in mu
teal admiration; he in the absence of an
Wen, and lin the pursuit-of one. But I look
ed at him the hardest, and••he loft another ink
mink on his loothead t troriea patheticrtnotion
of his left hand, to quicken his apprehension
of his moaning. 'Why, yes,' he reiterated,
to a tone of forced confidence, as if passing
an idea, which, though having been current
a hundred years, might still be counterfeit,
for all he could show on the spat, 'we print
thoughts to be sure.' 'But my hoy,t l asked
in honest soberness;'what are thoughts, and
how can you-get hold of them to print them?'
'Thoughts ate what come out of people's
minds,' he replied. 'Get hold of them, in
deed? \Vit . ): minds ar'nt nothing 'you can
get hold of, nor thoughts • either. All the
minds that ever thought, and all the thoughts
that minds ever made, wouldn't make a ball
as big as your fist. Minds, they say, are
jest like air ;lon can't am; tlvni ; they don't
make any noise, nor have any color; they
don't weigh anything. Bill Deepcut. the
sexton, says, that a man weighsjust as much
when his mind has gone out of him as he
did before. No, sir, all the minds that ever
lived wouldn't weigh an ounce troy.'
'Then how do you print thOughtel' I as
ked. 'll minds are Mtn as air, and thoughts,

sublime, 'people's minds wouldn't be immortal

touched binwvith these here bits of inky pew

his mind it work on all tile minds that live on
the earth, and all the minds that shall come to
live here as long as the world stands.'
'Ezekiel,' I asked, in a subdued tone of rev
erence, 'will you print my thoughts too 1'
'Yea that I will,' lie replied, "if you will
think some.of the right kind.' 'Yes, that we
will,' echoed the pressman.
And I went home 'end thought, and Ezekle
bee printed my 'thought-tracks' ever since.
A NNECDOTC.—It is said by those Who are
accustomed to, the society of such people,
that great men have sometimes their:fits of

themselves down as. familiarly as common
folks. That such is - the case we doubt not
from, a conversation on stock-raising, which
lately occurred between -the Expounder of

VICIIIIiLES IA CALIF6RNIA.--Mrll. Farnham, of
New York, who took out several females to
California, reached San Francisco on the 28th
of December . In a letter written home, she
says:
"Women are imprisoned here at this season
by the horrible condition of the Street,. We

VOLUME L.-No 20
OREGON.
The public have. derived much valuable in.
formation respecting this newly formed territo.
ry from Mr. THURSTON, its delegate in Con
gress, who has addreseed a letter to theblatlon
al Intelligencer containing the details that
were Interesting and important to be known.
ThAterritory is dividad into three great parts.
Western, Middle and Eastern Oregon. The
first division lies along the Pacific, and the
Eastern borders on the rocky mountain,. Th,,
Western part Is the only one settled as yet ; it
is a rich sad well watered country. 'rho Mid
dle division and pert of the Eastern. present ex
tensive tracts of grass land in the venire, with
Lame waste land near the mountain,. The eul•
tivated part is bounded East by the Cascade
mountains and extends to the Pacific. It has
a soil as fruitful as that of New England, and
capable of producing any thing raised in New
England. The climate is milder than in the
seine latitude on the Atlantic coast. Its lati
tude from 42 to 49 North would • bring it quint
a range with New Hampshire and Maine ; but
the winters are not so severe, and Ike summers
Rill of agreeable. Corn has not bean raised
rr udh;but wheat.and other grains are easily
produced ; all the common :Northern fruits, e
ven including peaches, seam well adapted to the
country.
The seasons, Mr. Thurston says, are divided.
Into the wet and dry, which le rather a singw'
lar fact fur so Northern a range. The dry,sr a"
son lusts from April to October. It ie said that
'that both coal and iron have been found in Or
egon.
Every settler, thee• far, has been allowed a
square mile of land as a gratuity. subject to the
decision of Congress, hereafter•. • - The populo." •
L ion at present, are woolly found in the Willa
mette valley, (which is towards the South pare •
of the territory and about 200 miles from the
Pacific,) and at the niouth.of the Columbia riv 6
-or. Several counties have been organized north"
of the river. The largest place in the territory,
is Oregon City on the Willamette river. The
water power of the whole territory Is represnt..
ed ae being very abundant and available, es
pecially on the upper part of the Willarnette and.
along the Columbia. -
j The Legislature have prohibited the immi.r
;imam of any blacks, whether free or slaves.—
It is 40d they do this from a knowledge of the
influence which the numerous Indians may
have over them..
The principatirticloS of export, thus far,lis vo
been lumber and toheat. The nuMunt of lumber
in Oregon is prodigious, and, though labor end
provisions are very high, it fetches in Califor
nia so largo a 'price es to make its exprt vary
profitable.
Some dispute among good authorities teclsta
respecting the bar at the mouth of the Colum
bia river. Seine represent it. as dangerous ;
while others deiciare that, with a competent pi.
lot, there is no danger.
MODUTFIE AND Mn. PRESTON, of
South Carolina, excepting John C. Calhoun,
the most brilliant and commanding politicians
of South Carolina since the days of Pickney,
we regret to learn, are. now in utter and
hopeless imbecility and idiocity, from sof
tening of the brain—the disease which ter
minated the intellectual life pl Southey so
long before his physical disease. So we
read in the New York Tribune, but we can
not but hope there is some mistake in this.
