A GRAND OLD POEM.
Who shall judge a man from manners 7
Who shall know him by his dress 7
Paupers may be fit for princes.
Princes fit for something loss,
Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore.
Of the deepest thoughts and feelings—
Satin vests could do no more.
There are springs of crystal nectar
Ever swelling out of stone ;
There are purple buds and golden,
Hidden, crushed and overgrown ;
God, who counts by souls not dresses-
Loves and prospers yon and me.
While he values thrones the highest ,
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man, upraised above his fellows,
Oft forget his fellows then,
Mastors, rulers, lords remember
That your in 'aDest kinds are men.
Men by labor, men by feeling,
Men by thought, and men by fame,
Claiming equal rights to sunshine,
In a man's ennobling name
There are foam-embroidered oceans,
There are little weed clad-rills,
There are feeble, -Inch-high saplings.
There are cedars on the hills ;
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves ana prospers you aud me,
For. to Him, all vain distinctions
Are as pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
Of a nation's wealth or fume ;
Titled laziuoss is pensioned,
Fed and fattened on 'he same ;
But the sweats of others' foreheads,
Living only to rejoice.
While the poor man's outraged freedom
Vainly lifted up its voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with !• veliness and light,
Secret wrongs shall never prosper,
While there is a sunny right ;
God, whose whole-heard voice is singing
Boundless love to vou and me,
Sinks oppression with its ti'les,
As the pebbles in the sea. jt

COURTING UNDER DIFFICULTIES.
K il e Biuke, was the only daughter of Ja*
Cob Blake, the old raiser of West Brook.
Sh<? wa more than couxuouly pretty, and
her frank engaging manners enchanced the
charms of golden hair, pearly skin, and eyos
like the blue skies of summer. At her fa
ther's death she would be heiress to the nice
little sum of seventy thousand dollars, and
though men generally profess not to be in
fluenced by pecuniary matters inaffirrs of
love, it is to be reasonably supposed that
this prospective wealth by no means lessened
the number of hi r adorers.
Auk ng those urnst ardent, and perhaps
most sincere, was Will Dartmouth, with a
heart larger than his purse, and very little
thought or care for consequences.
Fortunately, old Jacob never suspected
the partiality of his daughter for Will j he
woulo put her on bread and water before he
would have consented to the 6l ghtest de
gree ol intimacy with Will Dartmouth.
Jacob Blake was not in favor of marriage.
Those who knew his circumstances were not
surprised at this, for, to use a phrase more
expressive thau elegant, Mrs. Blake was a
Tarter, with temper enough for two Tarters.
Old Jacob hail to "walk Spanish" for the
most part, or suffer the consequences, which
usually descended on his head in the shape
of any domestic utensil which happened to
be lying around handy.
A maiden sister of Mr. Blake resided in
the family, whose principal business seemed
to be to act a sort of echo to her brother and
his wife. Whatever they thought, she
thought, too,
She regarded it as a primary sin for Ka
tie to associate with (he young men, and
this doctrine was perseveringly drilled into
her neice, who, though she never dissented,
had her own ideas on the subject.
One day Mr. Blake and his wile went to
Dedham, to attend a fair, and Miss Pepgv
being absent at a friend's Katie was left
alone. Will Dartmouth in some way learn
ed the condition of affairs, and early in the
afternoon he came over to keep Katie com
pany.
As her parents were not expected home
nnt'l the next day. and Peggv not until late
in the evening, Will felt perfee'ly seenre in
stopping awhile after supper ; and he and
Katie were havinp a jolly time popping corn
in the old fashioned frying-pan, over the
hntre wood fire, when there was the sound of
voices nt the door.
"Cnol erarSnns !" cried Katie. turning
, w (ii <j with alarm,"that is Aunt P-ecy.—
Oh, Will, what shall we do ! She will scold
me tn dea'h ; and fathpr will hp furious
Get under the lounge, quick ! Oh, Will, do
for mv sake !"
Will could not withstand the pleading in
Katie 1 * cve a . and he deposited himself in the
designated spot
Katie put not. the light, nnd darting into
an adjacent bedroom, in a moment was ap~
parently asleep.
Peggy's voice was beard speaking softly in
the entry.
,4 Be careful, Mr. Pike. There's a loose
board there. I don't want to disturb my
niece. Softly, it may creak."
44 Peggy, dear, where are you 7" responded
the squealing voice of E-quire Pike, the wid
ower of a year. "I can't tell which way
you've gone."
"There Daniel! be easy. Good Heavens !
Daniel Pike, Well, I never !" and a report
burst on the air like uncorking a champaign
bottle.
"Oh, my!" cried Aunt Peggy, "what
would brother Jacob say ? I declare, I hain't
been kissed by a man sense "
"Let Jake mind his own business !" re
torted the square. "You and I can take care
of ours without his help and there follow
ed a report similar to the first, only more of
it.
"Do be quiet, Daniel, and let me get a
light. Set right down there afore the tire
and make yourself to home."
A light was soon procured, Peggy divest
ed herself of her wrappings, and blushing
like a girl iu her teens sat down opposite the
Squire.
"I t's a fine evening," said Peggy, by the
way of opening the conversation.
"Very," replied lhe Squire, drawing his
chair close to hers, and laying his arui over
the back.
" Oh, good gracious ! Daniel, don't 6et
quite so nigh to me. I that is, I don't con
sider it strictly proper. Mercy ! what was
thai ?"
Both listened attentively.
"It was ttio wind rattling the window, I
guess,'' said the Squire. "Don't you go to
getting so narvous, Peggy."
"I thought it was Katie waking up. And
if she should, I never thould hear the last of
it."
"Ilirk ! Tl-ere is a noise—l "
"Gracious airth ! its bells. Its Jake and
marm coining back 1 What shall Ido ?
We're done f-.r ! Oh, Squire, 'taint right for
us to be nothing to one tolher ? Do help
uie ! What shall I do?"
"Tell me where to go, Peggy ! Say tf.e
word. I'llgo anywhere, for your sake, if it's
up the chimney •"
"Under the lounge, Quick ! It's wide, and
wdl hold you well enough. Quick ! dun'i
delay a minute !"
The Squire obeyed, but the space was al
ready so well filled that it was with difficul
ty he c >u!d squeeze himself into so small a
compass. And just as he had succeeded,
Mr. Blake and his wife entered the room,
floundering along in the darn, fur Peggy had
deemed it best to extinguish the light.—
Jake made for the fire which still glowed red
with coals, stumbled over a cricket, and fell
headlong against Peggy, who was standing
bolt upright, trying to collect her scattered
senses.
"The deuce j" cried Jake. "Look out,
there, old wnuian, or you'll be down over me.
It's uu:k as a pocket here, and I've fell over
'.he rooking cheer, or the churn, I can't tell
which. liullo ! what's that ?" reaching out
his hand to .eel his situation, and Coming in
contact with the bearded face of the Squire
"By George ! it's got whiskers ! Peg ! Peg !
where are yon 1 and Where's Kate ? and
what's this ?"
The Squire did not relish the assault made
on his hirsute appendages, and byway of re
taliation, he gave a series of viporous kicks,
which hit Will Dartmouth iu the region of
the stomach and sliirad his bile.
"Look here, old chap!" exclaimed he
"I'm perfectly willing to share my quarters
with ouy, seein as we're both in for ; but
you'd better not undertake to play that
again."
"ITeavings !" ejaculated Peggy ; "whose
voice is that ?"
"Who in the deuce is here ? that's what
I want to know !" cried Jake struggling for
an upright position. "Hullo! who's Ml
down over my legs ?"
"I'll let yi u know who's down, and who's
up !" said the voice of Mrs. Blake ; and the
old lady scrambled up, only to go instantly
down again over a chair. "Jake where are
you ; Git up this instant, and git a light, or
I'll shake your breath cut, when I get my
feet agin."
Jake started to obey, and just then Tige,
the watch dog, who hearing the uproar, ha<i
managed to break loose Irora his chain,
rulied upon the scene, aod set up his best
pow-wow.
The Squire had a mortal horror of dogs,
and neitner fear nor love was strong en >ugh
to keep hun quiescent now. He sprang to
his feet with a yell ; Will followed. Katie,
full of alarm for her lover, hopped out of bed,
and appeared with a flaming tallow dip
Peggy flung her arras around the Squires
neck, w ill a cry -of terror, and Jake was si
lent with amazement. Mrs. Blake was the
onlv one who possessed her wirs. She
seized ihe corn popper, and laid about her
with vigor.
Her aim was not always correct, and, in
const quenceo she smashi d the looking glass
into a thousand fragments, and knocked
down the clock from its shelf and demolished
two bowls and a pitcher that wero quietly
reposing on the mantle.
The Squire broke from Peggy'* embrace,
aod flashed out of tbe window. Will fol-
towed him and Mrs. Blake would have pur
sued by the same outlet, but 6he was a little
too large to get through with ease.
A dreaded counsel was holden; Jake
stormed, Mrs. B'ake threatened; and at last
bo'h Piggy and Katie confessed. And
Jake and his wife were so njniced at the
prospect of gettn g rid of Peggy, that tbey
forgave their daugbtet, and took Will Dart
mouth home at the end of the year.
And in due lime, Peggy and tho Squire
were made one flesh.
THE PRINTER AND THE TYPES.
Perhaps there is no department of enter
prise whose details are less understood by
ntelligent people than the " art preserva
t've 4 " —the achievimat of the types.
Every day their lives long, they are accus
tomed to Had the tit W6[ apere, to find fault
with its statements, its arguments, its looks,
to plume themselves upm the discovery of
"some roguish and acrobatic type tiiat gets in
to a frohc and stands upon its hea l ; >r some
word with a waste letter or two in it jbul of
the process by which the newspaper is made,
of the myriads of motions and thousands of
pieces necessary to its composition,they
know little and think less.
They imagine they discourse of a wonder,
indeed, when they speak of the lair, white
carpei, woven lor thought tc walk on, from
the rags that fluttered oil the back of the beg
gar yesterday.
But there is fo us something more won
derful still. When we look at the hundred
and fifty-two little boxes, something shaded
with the toucli of inky fi .gers, that compose
a printerV'case," nuisele-s, txcopl the click
ing of the types, as one by one they lake
their place in the growing line—we ihiuk we
have found the marvel of the art.
Strewn in those little boxes are thin par
alleh grams of mental, every one good for
soineihmg that goes to make up written lan
guage ;fhe visible footprints of thought upou
carpets of rags.
We think how many fragments of fancy
there are in these boxes; how many atoms
of poetry and eh qui i ce the printer can make
here and there, it he only has a iittle chart to
work by, how many facts in small haudluD,
how much truth iu chaos !
Now he p'eks up tne scattered elements
until he holds in his hand a stmzi of Grey's
el<gy, or a monody upon a Griuies" ail bui
tc eI up before." Now be sits up a ' Puppy
m 6sing," and new " Paiadise Lust"—
He arrays a bride in " small caps," and a
sonnet in "m r.j aritl. " lie anr< ur.ees Chat
tlie languishing l '| ivej " m one een ( enco trans
poses the word, and deplores the days that
are " evil, " in the next.
A poor jest ticks its way into the printers
hand, like a little clock just running down
and a strain of eloquence in irehes into lines.
We fanny we can tell the difference by il.e
clicks of the types ; but perhaps not.
Jhe types that told of a wedding yester
day, announce a buiial to-morrow—perhaps
in the self same letters.
They are the elements to make words of.
1 hose types are a world with something in
it as beautiful as spring, and as rich as sum
mer and as grand as autumn ; flowers that
'rost canuot wilt, but fruit tiiat shall ripen for
all tune.
BOUNTY.. -Ry a recent Act of Congress
the following persons are entitled, to one
hundred dollars bounty : First, soldiers of the
three or nine months' service who were dis
charged in consequence of wounds received in
battle. Second, Soldiers who had not served
two years and were discharge! on account of
wounds received. Third, The father, mother
widow or children of such as were in the three
or nine months' service and were killed.
These facts are not generally known and we
record them lhat those embraced in the pro
vision of this act may avail themselves of its
benefits.
THE CHOLERA IN EGYPT —The State De
partment is adviseed by our Counsel at Port
on, that the cholera, which has prevailed
in Egypt, is slowly advancing westward.
fie adds :—"From the reported virulence of
ihe disease, it is not without* apprehension
here, this being a quarantine station, lhat it
may again spread *ver the country."
Two unsuccessful attempts have
been made to abduct G ;orge N. Sander*,who
is at Montreal, Canada, a heavy reward hav
ing been offered for him by our government.
Two of the kidnappers were arrested the
last time, after a pistol fight with the police.
They claim to be detectives.
The New York T r ibune declares that the
negroes "saved the country in the hour of Its

WHAT AN ENGLISH AUTHOR SAYS
OF ENG USH GIRLS.
, . * I
Wh*t pretty girls 1 Greek profile# ui
nez retrousses pale and florid, black, brown
gold rnd warmer auburn, there tbeyslt i
the front rows like a bed of flower#, all scarlet,
white and blue, and it is worth while coming
to the play :f only to watch their luvely faoei.
The youth of English girls—for there are
stages in girlhood, even before we come to
the time when woman are ''old girls" by
right—the first early blush and bloom of AD
English girl is something as like divine a# hu
manity can attain- It is not only in the
color and form, though both of these are SO
lovely, but in the shy, unspoken, and uode
vel-pod nature lying like a sleeping child
within the heart ; in the love that has never
been awakened, and that is just faintly stir
ring in the soul, unconscious of its own im*
prisoned life; in the instincts that would
blush lur themselves weie they roused to
confession and self knowledge—it is in all
this sweet and tender mystery of nature,
this union of love and bashfulness, that the
charm of the young English girl consists, and
that gives her beauty such winning witchery.
And this is what you may read in those love
ly faces in the frqnt row, whether the Saxon
his left his mark on the golden head, or the
Celt his on the eb n. Other races are more
loving in their women, more instinctive, and
more alluring ; and some areas shy ; but I
do not know where there is the same mixture
of both— the same sweetness of modesty and
♦he same te't derriess of leve at one time. If
there is a fault to find or a stone to fling, it
is that tais early bloom of soul so soon passes
—it is that though English girls are so ten
der, English women are so often hard, and
that ihe richness of the 3' f, ung love dries up
and impoverishes and stiffens into absolute
co.dness. I flmg these stones with a very
leeb'u sling, and do not desire to hit eveu a
ghost.
UK I GUAM YOUNG.
The President of the Mormon Church ia
six foot high, portly, and weighs about two
hundred pounds. He is wonderfully well—
preserved 1- r a man who has passed his sixty -
fourth birih day, His face is fresh and uo
wrinkled, h:s step agile and elastic. I can
hardly detect a single gray hair in his curling
si.burr, locks, or the whi-kers of the same
nue, which in smooth, crescent line fringe
his check an . c;,in. Is Bngham Young in
deed a new Ponce de 'Leon, who has discov
ered in Polygamy the fountain of Perpetual
Youth ?
His eyes are of a grayish bine. They do
not impress me as trunk and open, but have
a secretive expression. Xle has an eagle nose j
and a mouth that shuts like a vice, indicating
'remendous firmness. 1118 manner is digni~
tied—agreeable and afiabie rather than cor
' dial; and he carries the unmistakable air of
■me having authority. Ordinarily cold in
conversation, he has little ebulitions of ear*
nestness in which he speaks right at people,
using his dexter fore-finger with great force
to point a moral. He treats the biethreo
with warmth, throwing his arm caressingly
about them, and asking carefully about the
wives and babies.
He has observed much, thonght much,
mingled much with practical men ; but seems
a littJo unfamiliar with cultivated society.
He is abstemious and temperate, using nei
ther tea nor coffee, spirits nor tobacco
Provincialisms of his Vermont boyhood aod
h s Western manhood still cling to him.—
ne says Heelle," "beyend," and "disremem*
her." An irrepressible conflict between his
nominatives and verbs now and then crops
out in expressions like ' they was." etc.
Yet those who hold Brigharn Young %
cheap charaltan, are wilder if possible than
the Saints who receive bun as an angel of
I ght, or those Gentiles who denounce him as
a goblin damned' A most striking embodi
ment of the One Man Power, he holds a
hundred thousand people in tho hollow of
his hand. Gathered from every nation, al
ways poor, usually ignorant, sometimes vi
cious, he has molded them into an industri
ous, productive, honest, and ho nogeneous
community. lie has grown very rich; the
Gen'iles charge him with extortion among
his own people. lie certainly owes much of
the most desirable property io Utah. But
his adherents as a class have vastly itnprov
ed their condition by coming here. I be
lieve that all admit ihat his large commer
cial dealings are characterized by integrity f
and thai he possesses great kindness of
heart. lie is a man of brains, qnick intui
tions, good judgment and untiring industry.
