BIT MRS. HEMANS.
If ihou hast crushed a flower,
Tho roof may not bo blighted;
If thou hast quenched a lamp,
Ones more it may be lighted;
Bat on thy heart or on thy lute.
The string which thou hast broken,
Shall never in sweet sound again
Give to thy touch a token!
if thou hast loosed a bird.
Whose voice of song could cheer thoe;
Still, still, he may be won
From the skies to warble near thee;
Out if upon the troubled sea
Thou hast thrown a gem unheeded,
Hope not that the wir.d or wave shall faring
The treasure back when needed.
Is thou hast bruised a vine,
The summer's breath is healing.
And its cluster yet may glow
Thro the leaves their bloom revealing.
Cat if thou hast a cup o'erlhrown
With a bright draught filled oh, never
Shall tho earth give back that lavished
wealth
To cool thy parched lips ftver!
The heart is like that cup,
If thou waste the love it bore thee,
And like that jewel gone,
Which the deep will not restore thee,
And like tl at string of harp or lute
Whence the sweet sound is scattered
Gently, oh, gently touch the chords,
o soon forever shattered!
The Battle of Oar Life
SY ItEV. EDWARD C. JONES.
Up to the strife with care,
Be thine an oaken heart,
Life's daily contest nobly share,
Nor act a craven part;
Give murmnrs to the coward throng,
De thing the joyous notes of song.
If thrown upon the field,
Up to the task once more,
Tis worse than infamy to yield,
'Tia childish to deplore;
Look stern misfortune in the cyo,
And breast the billows manfully.
Close in with every foe,
As thickly on they come.
They can but lay thy body low,
And send thy spirit home;
Yet mayst thou stout it out and view
What giant ensrgy can do.
Soon shall the combat eoase,
The struggle fierce and long,
And thine be true, unbroken peace,
And thine tho victor's song;
Beyond the clouds will wait for thee
The wreath of immortality!
GEMS.
The hope of happiness is a bridgo woven oit
of 6unbcams and the colors of the rainbow,
which carries us over the frightful chistn of
dtfith.
Human knowledga is a bright pillar, but it id
built in the midt of a e'eeert of ignoranco, and
those who have uscended the highest have only
gained a more extended vie w of the waste.
Adversity overcome is the brightest glory
and willingly undergone, tho greatest virtue
Sufferings are but the trials of valliant spirits
Use no evasion when called upon to do a
goou action, nor excuse when you are reproach
ed for doing a bud one.
For one man who sincerely pities our mis-
fortunes, there arc hundreds who heartily hate
os for our success.
Every timo a mm laughs he adds to the du
ration of his life.
Wo know men who habitually carry their
heads downward, and seldom look their lellow
men in the face. The refltcting mind natur
ally concludes that guilt is stamped upon their
brows.
Whoever is contentol with his lot is rich
Not he who hath littlo but he who desires
more is the poor man.
The idler is a dangerous member of society
He becomes a prey to his own passions and
scourges others with his vices.
The two most precioous things this side of
the grave aro reputation and life, yet the most
contemptible whisper may deprive us of the
one, and the meanest weapon of tho other.
There is a luxury in the uninterrupted en.
joy men t of sorrew, but it is when tho tear can
steal along the cheek unseen and tho pride of
stoicism all men possesses yields to the gen
uine call of humanity.
A clear conscience cannot be bought with
money, but is often sold fur it.
A man who 19 officious to serve you at first
sight, should be regarded with caution.
Consolation
A passenger on board the ship Regulus,
of Boston, in a letter home, states that they
had on board their vessel a thin and fee
ble member of their company, who had
been sea sick all the way out to the line.
One day this man went to the doctor, and
in a 6ad, supplicating tone, accosted him
''vith -
Doctor, can you tell me what I shall
be good for when I get to San Francisco,
if I keep on tihs way?'
4Teli you? To be sure I can. You're
jut the man we want to begin a grcve vard j
WTtl.,'
Enles for the Jearuey of Life.
The following rules, from the papers of
Dr. West, were according to nis memo
randum thrown together as general way
marks in the journey of life.
Never to ridicule sacred things, or what
others may esteem such, however absurd
they may appear to be.
Never show levity when people are
professedly engaged in worship.
Never to resent a supposed injury, till I
know the views and motives of the author
of it. Nor on any occasion to retaliate.
Never to judge a person's character by
external appearance.
Always to take the part of an absent
person who is censured in company, so far
as truth and propriety will aliow.
Never to think the worse of another on
account of his differing from me in politi
cal or religious opinions.
Not to dispute with a man more than
seventy years of age, nor with a woman,
nor an enthusiast.
Not to effect to be witty or to jest so as
to wound the feelings of another.
To say as little as possible of myself,
and those who are near to me.
To aim at cheerfulness without levity.
Not to obtrude my advice unasked.
Never to court the favor. of the rich by
flattering either their vanity or their vices.
To speak with calmness and delibera
tion cn all occasions; sspecially in circum
stances which tend to irritate.
Frequently to review my conduct and
note mv ladings.
On all occasions to have in prospect the
end of life and a future state.
Slander.
Yes, pass it along, whether you belive
it or not that one-sided whisper against
the character of a virtuous female. You
say you don't believe it, yet you will use
your influence to bear up the false report,
and pass it on the current. Strange crea
tures are mankind! How many reputa
tions have been lost by surmise! llow
many benevolent deeds have been chilled
by the shrug of the shoulder! How many
individuals have been shunned by a gen
tle mysterious hint! How many chaste
bosoms have been wrung with grief by a
single nod! How many graves hate been
dug by a false report! Yet you will pass
the slander along, you will keep it above
the waters by a wag of your tongue, when
you might sink it forever. Destroy the
passion for telling a tale, we pray you.
Lisp not a word that may injure the char
acter of another, and, as far as you are
concerned, the slander will die. But tell
it once, and it may go as on the wings of
the wind, increasing with each breadth till
it has circulated through the state, and
brought to the grave one who might have
lived and been a blessingr to the world.
A "Bad Oyster."
The Spirit of the Times has the follow
ing good one:
Scene. An oyster cellar.
Enter Frenchman 'Sir, you keep de
raw oys-tair?' j
Opener 'Yes sir! fine, fat Prince's
Bay.'
Frenchman 'Tres bein, I will eat some
raw oys-tair.'
The man opens a fine fat one and puts
it on a plate before the Frenchman, who
eyes it some time, and says:
'.Monsieur, you call dis de good oys
tair!' 'Yes sir, prime
The Frenchman swallowed it, (it was
the first he ever ate;) opens his eyes and
mouth, pats his head to his bread basket
and B-l-u-u-p! and up comes the oys-tair'
on the plate.
Sacre dam! by dam, dat is not de good
oys-tair.'
'You didn't put on salt and pepper, sir.'
Ah! pardonnez moi?' Putt pepper ajid
salt on the same one. Swallows it and
'Blu-u-p' up it comes again.
How you tell me zat oys-tair, bein?'
'Why, sir, you must use vinegar.
'Ah! oui! certainment! be-ne-gar! oui,
and he swallows the same again. Bl-u-u-p!'
and up it comes again on the plate.
Just then a gent enters.
'Give us a dozen o' raw.
The Frenchman turns to him. 4 Ah!
my fren, you eats ze raw oys-tair?'
'Of course.'
'You call zat ze good oys-tair?
'Yes, fine fat one.
'Ha! you tink is good oystair, suppose
you cat him'.'
'With pleasure, sir! and the gent gave
it a dart of pepper sauce and bolted it.
The hoirilied opener stood agape; he
didn't mind 'sawing' a Frenchman, but an
old customer was another thing.
The Frenchman turned on his heel.
Ah! my fren, zat may be ze good oys
tair, I do no like him. I swallowed zat
oys-tair tree time.'
'Bl-u-u-u-ph' came the oyster, and the
Frenchman danced with delight.
Ah! Monsieur! zat dam bad oys-tair!
oui certainment!'
The gent, speechless with horror, ran to
the bar, and seizing the brandy decanter,
swallowed about half a pint, and mizzled.
The Frenchman followed, saying:
'Zat dam bad oys-tair!'
A loving husband once waited on a phy
sician, to request him to prescribe for his
wife's eyes, which were very sore..
'Let her wash them,' said the doctor,
every morning with a small glass of bran
dy. A few weeks after the doctor chanced
to meet the husband. ,
'Well, my friend, has your wife follow
ed my advice? ,
'She has done everything in her power
to do it, doctor,' said the spouse, but she
could never get the glass higher than her
mouth.'
Preparation of Seed Wheat.
By sifting, . with suitable selves, the
large plump berries may be seperatedfrqm
the small and shrivelled, which will make
a"great improvement. The wash' thor
oughly in water, stirring violently, and
skim off all floating substances.- Violent
washing will rub off the seeds of fungus,
which might cause smut or other diseases,
and destroy the eggs of insects; and by
skimming, the light seeds and other refuse
substances may be excluded.
Various steeps are used as a further pre
vention ot smut, &c, for which we have
recommended violent washing. The fol
lowing is cheap, convenient, safe, and
probably as affecting as any; and it has
the important advantage of floating oats,
and grains of comparative lightness, that
sink in pure water,
jMake a solution of salt, as strong as
can be made, which is probably about one
quart of salt to two gallons of water. In
this steep the wheat, and remove worth
less matters that arise; all the grains of
wheat of comDarative lighthess. It is best
to soak the wheat twelve or twenty-four
hours; but when thus prepared, if the
weather is favorable, it will keep in good
condition for several days or weeks, if the
brine is strong, as it will not vegetate in it.
We have kept wheat a week or two in
this way; and a farmer informed us that
he had prepared wheat in brine, when his
intervale, where he intended to sow, was
overflowed, and he kept it in the brine,
three weeks and, as it was late, he then
spread and dried it, and sowed the next
spring with success.
After soaking wheat in brine, drain off
the brine, which is good manure, and add
sufficient slack lime to make it dry enough
to sow. Sow soon after the lime is added.
If any accident or storm prevents sowing
soon, return the grain into the brine, as
the best preservative.
Culture cf Field Beans.
Many of our farmers would find it ad
vantageous to cultivate a few acres of field
beans, and as the season for planting the
crop is at hand, we direct attention to the
subject. A friend states that he raised a
very profitable crop the past year, and
though his land is well adapted to wheat,
he thinks beans pay quite as well on a
small scale.
The crop thrives well on a quick dry
soil, finely pulverized; but if inclined to be
wet, the land should be ridged. I he seed
may be put in any time this month, after
the danger of frost is past. Do not plant
in a cold wet time, as the seed will be
more liable to rot; the ground ought to be
well warmed by the sun before planting.
Bush beans are the only ones used lor
field planting, and of these there are sev
eral kinds. Among others the long gar
den beans, white, red or mottled, are
known as great bearers, of good quality,
and mature early.
Relative to the culture and produce of
this crop, Judge Buel says: 'Beans may
be cultivated in drills or in hills. They
are a valuable crop, and with good care
are as profitable as a wheat crop. 1 hey
leave the soil in ffood tilth. I cultivated
beans the last year in three different ways
viz:, in hills, in drills, and sown broadcast.
I need not describe the first, which is a
well kuown process. I had an acre in
drills, which was the best crop I ever saw.
My management was this: On the acre
of light ground, where the clover had been
frozen out the preeeeding winter, I spread
eight loads of long manure, and immedi
ately plowed and harrowed the ground.
Drills or furrows were then made with a
light plow, at the distance of two and a
half feet, and the beans thrown along the
furrows by the hand, at the rate of at least
a bushel to the acre. I then guaged a dou
ble mould board plow, which was passed
once between the rows, and was followed
by a light, one horse roller, which flatten
ed the ridges. The crop was twice clean
ed of weeds by the hoe, but not earthed.
The product was more than forty-eight
bushels by actual measurement.
Philosophy of Farmers. Here is the
secret of good farming. You cannot take
more from the land than you restore to it
in some shape or other, without running it,
and so destroy your capital. Different
soils may require different modes of treat
ment and cropping, these are golden rules
to attend to. Drain nntil you rind that the
water that falls from the heavens does not
stagnate in the soil, but runs through it and
offit freely. Turn up and till the land
until your foot sinks into a loose, powdery
loam, that the sun and air readily pass
through. Let no weeds occupy a place
where a useful plant could grow. Collect
every particle of manure that you can,
whether liquid or solid. Let nothing on
the farm go to waste. Put in your crops
in that course in which experience has
shown to lead to success in their growth,
and to an enrichment not impoverishment
of the land. Give every plant room to
spread its roots in the soil; and its leaves
in the air.
Blxtnt.- A voter deficient in personal
beauty, said to Sheridan, I mean to with
draw my countenance from you. Many
thanks for the favor, replied the candidate
'for it is the uglist mug I ever saw.
We have been permitted (says the Wy
oming Democrat) to make the following
extract from a Love-letter, now in the pos
session of a gentleman in this place. If it
ain't rich truly, say so at once, and we will
stop the press and take it out.
4In the inexhaustible infinite of thy
beautific perfection, sufier me, thy most
passionate adorer to receive from those
nectarious lips of thine one smile. Pardon
me most enchanting of thy sex, lor in the
transporting paroxisms of seraphic hope
and admiration, I some day hope to obtain
an electric kiss from thy cherubic chorals
that will lull my soul into a sweet delirium
of agonizing extacy. O most egregious
and transcendent angel, to transfi v from thy
translucent head one hair would be, to es
timate a world of diamonds, but ta deline

OCT" A perfect steam engine hasjust been
manufactured by an apprentice at Leeds,
which can be covered by a child's thim
ble. It works as accurately as the most
elaborate engine. It is spoken of as the
most extraordinary specimen of skill ever
exhibited.
t"An old offender was lately brought
before a learned Justice of the Peace.
The constable, as a preliminary, informed
his worship that he had in custody John
Simmons, alias Jones, alias Smith.
'Very well,' said the magistrate, 'I will try
the two icomen first; bring in Jllice Jones.'
O Flaherty and the Bees. There happen
ed on a certain occasion, to grow up between
Mister O'Flaherty and a bragging down eastcri
a very fierce contest a9 to the comparative size
of different animals and insects, in this and
the "ould cou Dlry," when Mr. O'Flaherty de
clared that in Ireland tho "baas were aa large
as a shape.'
"Very well," interrupted Ichabod, "how big
are their hives?"
"As big asyourn, be jabers!"
'Then how do the bees gel into their hives?
Faddy scratched his head, and after a few
momenta replied : "Oh! that's their business."
How to do it. Punch says! to resuscitate
a drowned Yankee, search his pockets.
To resuscitate a drowded englishman, broil
a beef-teak under his nose.
