"Where there's a Will there's a Way."
BT ELIZA COOK.
We hate faith in old proverbs full surely,
For Wisdom Las traced what they te1,
And Truth may be drawn up as purely
From them, as it may from "a welL".
Let us question the thinkers and doers,
And hear what they honestly say,
And you'll find they believe, like bold woers,
In "where there's a will there's a way."
The hills have been high for man's mounting,
The woods have been dense for his axe.
The stars have been thick for his counting,
The sands have been wide for his tracks,
The sea has been deep for his diving,
The poles have been broad for his sway,
Cut bravely he's proved in bis striving.
That "where there's a will there's a way."
Have ye vices that ask a destroyer? .
Or passions that need a control? -Let
Reason become your employer.
And your body be ruled by your souL .
Fight on, though ye bleed in the trial,
Resist with all strength that ye may,
Ye may conquer Sin's host by denial,
For "where there's a will there's a way ."
Have ye Poverty' pinching to cope with?
Does suffering weigh down your might?
Only cull up a spirit to hope with,
And dawn may come out of. the night.
Oh! much may be done by defying
The ghosts of. Despair and Dismay,
And much may be gained by relying
On "where there's a will there's a way."
Should ye see afar off that worth winning,
Set out on your journey with trust;
And ne'er heed if your path at beginning
Should be among brambles and dust.
Though it is but by footsteps ye do it,
And hardships may hinder and stay,
Keep a heart, and be sure you'll get thro' it,
For "where there's a will there's a way."
Soarllisli! Soar High! .. .
BIW. II. M.
Soar high! soar high! nor fear to fly.
Think not about the falling,
Stay not to shrink upon the brink j
, Of high and holy calling:
But being right, with all thy might
Go on the clouds of sorrow,
That here to-day obscure the way,
May all be gone to-morrow.
The world may sneer and laugh and jeer,
Yet stay not for repining; -Alike
for all, the great and small,
Creation's light is shining.
Take heart of oak, there is no stroke
Man strikes, but it may aid him,
For ir the deed from good proceed.
Say what on earth? shall shade him.
As every joy we unemploy
Is an ungracious measure.
So every gift we cast adrift
Is a most wasted treasure;
And it may be, perchance if we
Should once alike refuse them,
We may in vain strive to regain
Tho slightest power to use them.
Soar high: soar high! nor foar to fly,
Think not about the falling.
There is a power in every hour, '
To help us in our calling;
If only more we would adore.
And seek its mighty aiding;
Nor rack our brains, nor take such pains
To search for things so fading.
I Wandered by the Brookside.
I wandired by tho brookside,
I wandered by tho mill;
I could not hear the brook flow,
The noisy wheel was still;
There was no burr of grasshoppers,
No chirp of any bird,
But the beating of my own heart
Was all the sound I heard.
I cat beneath (heolni tree,
I watched the long, long shade,
And as it grew still longer,
I did not feel afraid,
For I listened for a foot-fall,
; I listened for a word,
But the beating of my own heart
Was all the sound I heard.
He came net no, ho came not,
The night came on alone;
The little etars sat one by one,
- - Each on his golden throne; -
, The evening air passed by my check, .

. i But the beating of my own heart . V
i . Was all the sound 1 heard.
- - -Fast silent tears were flowing,
'. When semetbing stood behind,
- A hand was on mv shoulder,
I knew its touch was kind.'
It drew me nearer nearer,
Wo did not speak one word,
. For the beating of our own hearts
Was all the sound we heard.

April Fooling",
; . ; ,1 I OR, ; :
How a Drake Made a Gander of Himself.
i - - - ?
, BY STAMPEDE.
How r when originated the idea that
the first of April is a propitious day for
getting offpractical jokes, and hoaxing and
humbugging your friends and neighbors,
we are not - well prepared to explain; but
that the day aforesaid is devoted by the
waggish portion of the Christian commu
nities to running rigs upon the unwary, is
clear enough. We have participated in
many of these fanny diversions, and the
narrative of them in extenso would far
exceed all newspaper limits; howeverwe
shall not i tire the. patience; of the reader
with a series of our own doings, but give
a brief synopsis of a day's :work, the fun
and expense enjoyed, by a middle-aged
jocular friend of ours, who was so addicted
to practical joking, that he cared not a fig
for expense, .so he had his joke; and as a
proof of tills fact,' hear us out.
Old Drake, that was his name,' orvhat
he was generally, called, and quite as fre
quently, Salamander Drake, from the fact
that his face was always as ruddy as a
setting sun in a summer's sky, or boiled
lobster,: givingf hhft indeed a fiery, shJi
manderish look sabout? the- phi?. . frjie
color was not the result of potent spirits,
however. Oh, no! Drake seldom drank,
but an exuberance of humor, and good,
jolly animal spirits, seemed to -keep up
the crimson tint of his physiognomy, as
bright and glowing as a smelter's furnace.
Ihe first of April 'was at hand, and
Drake promised - himself lots of fun; and
he was -just r the codger to concoct it and
carry out the necessary minutiae, to effect
his purpose. The first of April came, and
Drake was up betimes: popping his head
out the window of his chamber, he espied
one ot those early birds, the newsboys,
laden with the morning papers, and bawl
ing at the top of his infantile lungs, 'Ere's
the Times,. Er'ld, Bee and Daily Mail!'
Drake sung out, 'Hallo, boy! then drew
in his head. The boy looked in vain for
his customer, then went on. Drake thrust
out his head, bawled again, and drew in
his head to chuckle; but the urchin, smell
ing a rat, armed himself with a stray po-
tatoe, and as Drake stuck out his ."poll a
third time, the literary dealer let him have
the bulbous esculent as hard as his little
muscles could propel it, and though miss
ing the wag, smashed a pane of glas that
cost Drake half a dollar, straight. The
joker let down his window and sneaked
down stairs to his breakfast. Stepping-
into the yard, Drake picks up some chips
- - - - 4 o
of white marble, slips them slily into the
sugar-bowl on the table, araonff the loaf-
sugar, and had the satisfaction of . seeing:
the lumps of marble in his children's cof
fee-cups; children wondered why the su
gar would not melt, and beat their silver
spoons as crooked as a ram's horns, poun
ding the stones; but Drake laughed at the
joke heartily, and his wife scolded foran
hour at lus nonsense and lolly.
Breakfast over, Drake sallies out into
the street; meets an old friend, affects sur
prise, and says, Why, who blacked your
lace so, iriend Gray? Black my face,
Heaven bless me!' ejaculates the astonish
ed old gent, running into a barber's shop
close at hand, to see who had been black
ing Ills face, while old Drake went on
his way laughing for dear life. Coming
by the cab-stand, Drake orders a two-horse
coach to call for a lady and gentleman pre
cisely at 3 P. M., from Ko. Warren
Street, to go to Mount Auburn. 'Yes,
sir,' says the cab, noting down the direc
tion, while Drake hurried off, snickering,
'That s an April fool!' Drake went
chuckling to his office; another idea came
into his head; he sat down and wrote a
note to a sheriff's officer, directing him to
get out a writ immediately, and arrest a
certain gentleman, just then getting ready
to leave the city, to swindle his creditors,
but pretending it was a pleasure excursion.
Signing the name of a commercial friend
to the note, drake gave it to a lad to deliver
telling him to return immediately to his
store, No. Hanover street, where he
would find him, and get a ninepence. Off
went the boy m haste, and old Drake dis
appeared, chuckiing over the idea of ma
king three April fools at one move.
The joker now travelled down to Quin
cy Market, ordered butter to be sent to his
house in Beacon street, potatoes to be
sent to him by another, to his dwelling on
Park street, and poultry and a round of
beef to be sent to Leverett street. Off
went Drake chuckling at his glorious sport.
Met a raw-looking countryman, asked him
why he wasn't up town seeing the pro
cession. 'Tcrsession?' said the green
horn. 'Yes,' said Drake, 'the wild beast
show is going to pass Faneuil Hall pres
ently, and the clejrtiants are now standing
by the Hall.' 'Be, eh? Wall, hearn so
much 'beout them creatures, guess I'll go
see 'em,' said greenhorn, putting out for
Faneuil Hall; while Drake went on to the
custom house, and left word with an offi
cer that some silks, &c, were being smug
gled ashore from a schooner over in East
Boston. Two officers started right off to
investigate the conspiracy," while Drake
crossed over to Sea street, and bargained
with two Irishmen to take the flags 6fa
friend's pavement up, and ordered them to
get a bricklayer to pave the sidewalk with
brick. The- paddies ' went about thIr
work, and Drake to find more victims.
Coming by the auction store of ,
on Congress street,! Drake popped in, and
getting into the dark corner, he bid on an
old cook-stove, knocked off to him;' chan
ged his voice and attitude, and bid orfold
chairs, stew-pans, carpets, and othertrash,
giving in various names, until tired of that
game, he turned his steps . homeward.
C oming "along," D ralce" dips his Hand into a
box of saw-dust; met an bid friend at the
corner of Boylston street, with an umbrel
la; while walking along, .Drake slips the
saw-dust into the old gentleman's umbrel
la, told the old gent, who was a little defi
cient in sight, that the rain was falling; old
gent raised his umbrella, and. feeling a
shower of saw-dxi3t coming down, ex
claimed,: 'Bless me, it does rain!' Drake
bawled right out, arid hurried off.
The joker now hailed all the Washing
ton street omnibuses he met, to ask them if
they ran to Charlestown. Drivers sivore,
generally, but Drake laughed in his sleeves
Met an Italian with an organ and monkey;
told him if he would call at his office after
dinner, he would give him half a dollar to
play an hour for his children. 'Ya-es, I
cum,' said the organ-grinder.1 'There's
my address,' . said the facetious Drake,
giving the Italian a card, with 'Francis
Tukey, No. Court Square' upon it.
Then hurrying along, the joker laughed
enough to split his sides at the idea of how
nicely the man and monkey! would get
into ascrape.
Drake began to feel had about his morn
ing's work, when his wife c.ame into the
parlor to call him to dinner, and just then
Jing-a-ling-jing went the doorbell. Drake
sa.1 uown wiin iorepocings tnai m was
brewing towards his rest; in came his wif
to ask what in the. name of goodness pos
sessed him to go to auction, and buy such
a cartload of dirty old stoves, pots, chairs,
&c. 'Me? I buy old stoves, pots and
chairs?' said Drake, ' trying to believe he
didn't. 'Yes, here's the- bill, sum $11,
with a P. S. at the. bottom 'Can't fool
me, friend Drake; ; like you to come and
bid often. Yours, &c, '.'
There was no do dgin g. ' this bill, so
Drake paid it, and ordered the carman to
take the old goods down to Leonard's, Tre-
mont street, and tell him to sell them off
at the first sale. The carman took the
cash, and started off again with a chuckle;
Drake went to dinner. The bell soon
rang again; servant girl announced two
gentlemen, who wished to see Mr. Drake.
Drake slowly and cautiously crawled out
to the door, when two very fierce-looking
persons demanded if his name was Drake.
Drake said that was his name; one of the
red-faced men then intimated that unless
he tendered an apalogy on the spot, for
imposing upon the government officers by
his falsehood about the smuggling, it was
his determination to whale him into gib
lets! Upon . hearing this blood-thirsty
declamation, Biddy, the housemaid, who
had been standing close by, ran screaming
into the mistress, to tell her that two vill
ains were going to shoot, stab, and murder
the master in his own house. I he wife
dropped all, and ran out, begging them
not to kill her husband. But poor Drake
to get rid of his tormentors, said he would
apologise, do any thing to appease them.
Drake apologised, the wrathy 'customs
left, and the trembling wife led the almost
fainting Drake back to the dinner table.
Scarcely had the luckles Jokpx sal Jwn,
- .11 !- ,1
wnen me aoor-Deu rang again, ana maay
ran in to announce that a carriage was at
the door, and the driver said he was di
rected to call for Mr. Drake to carry him
to Mount Auburn! Drake was trapped
again; the cabman had gotten his track.
He told Biddy to order the carriage away;
the driver grew furious, swore like a troo
per, couldn't April fool him, and unless
Drake paid two dollars cash up, he would
go and prosecute him right away. All
this, Biddy, as true as the telegraph wires,
announced to her master. Drake search
ed his wallet, found a two dollar note,
gave it to the maid; she gave it to the cab
man, and he drove off, with his thumb and
finger to his nose, which Biddy took as a
personal insult, and banged the front door
with great indignation.
The wife was a reasonable woman; she
saw through her husband's vagaries, but
she didn't tantalize him, or add to his load
of mortifications by any recapitulations of
his idle freaks of the morning; she merely
hoped this would be a warning to him not
to crack jokes upon people again, espe
cially where he was so well known and
so easily traced. Poor Drake, he took a
nap, then, a little refreshed, he started out
to take a walk, but as he turned around
the first corner, he was rudely assaulted
by a stalwart fellow armed with a raw
hide, and the way he dusted the joker's
jacket was glorious fun for the lookers-on,
and anything but joking to Drake.
'I'll teach you, you scoundrel,' said the
raw-hide man, 'to play tricks upon my fa
ther!' and whack, whack, he brought the
raw hide upon the back of the offender.
'Gin' it to 'im!' bawled the mob, and gin
it to him he did, until Drake, breaking
loose, scratched gravel for home as fast as
a pair of legs ever carried a flagellated
biped in this world. Bruised in body,
torn in mind, and sick and disgusted with
his nonsensical folly, Drake did not add up
the expenses of his day's work, but swore
solemnly and roundly too, that if ever he

THE GRAND PURGATIVE.
Dr Cliekener's Sugar Coated Vegetable Ex.
tract Pills. These celebrated Pills have ob
tained an onviablo notoriety in the United
States as a curative for giddiness, dyspepsia,
sour stomach, headache fevers, pile, costive
ness, coughs, heart-burn, liver complaint, scur.
vy sore throat, inward weakness, palpitation
of the heart, indigestion, and a variety of oth
er diseases to which the flesh. is heir to, as a
medicine for the million. In all seasons of the
year spring, summer, fall and winter, and un
der all circumstances, they can be taken with
perfect safety and success. As a Vermifure
and general medicine for children they are ura
rivalled. Being coated with pure white surar,
children will easily take them; they neither
gripe nor nauseate; are gentle but thorough in
their operation. For adults by increasing the
dose, they are equally beneficial. As an Anti.
Billious Pill they will be found without a supe
rior; ask any one among the thousands who
used them, and an unqualified approval will be
the certain result.
Remember Dr. C. V. Clickner is the original
inventor of Sugar coaled Pills, and that noth
ing of toe sort was ever heard of until he
introduced them in June, 1843. Purchasers
should, therefore, always ask for Clickner's
Sugar Coaled Vegetable Pills, and take no oth
er, or they will be make the victim's of fraud.
Price 25 cents per box.
.CIlker's principal office for the sale of
Pills, is 66 Vesey street New York.
