SONG.
I've oft, at night,
Seen forms of light,
Fresh from the fields of air ;
But never jet
Till now have met
A mortal maid as fair ;
Oil golden sands
Ot starry lauds
I thought such maids might shine ;
But did nt t know
That earth could show
Such lovelinebS as thiue.
Eyes Irighter far
Than gem or star
Shall haunt me evermore,
Where'er my path,
In peace or wrath.
Shall be no sea or shoe;
Now maids not fair
Of earth or air
For mc in vaiu rhall shine,
Their eyes, though bright,
Have uot the light
That fills that glance of thine.
Ou. glossy tress
I will thee bless
If thou wilt give to mo ;
Whem lar apart,
Oh, thim, my heart
'Twill firmly bind to thee.
Iu shade or ray,
Where'er I stray,
When eyes and tresses shine,
. o maiden there,
Of earth or a:r,
I'll meet with charms like thine.
. The rover's heme,
On land or foaoi,
The tent or plank with thee,
Or humblest cot,
In any spot,
A palace were to mc.
Alike all others,
If those bright eyes
Ou mo would fondly shino;
All else that's dear
To bosoms hero
I'd yield to call thee mine !

There i no architect
Can build as tho Muse can j
She is skilful to select
Wateriuls for her plan ;
She treads dark Alpine forests,
Or valleys by the sea,
Iu many lauds with painful stops,
Ere she can find a tree,
She ransaeks miues and ledges,
And quarries every rock,
To how the famous adamant
For each eternal block,
She lays her beams in music,
In music every one,
To tho chance of the whirling world
Which dances round the sun ;
That so they shall not be displaced
By lapses or by wars,
But, for tho love ol happy souls,
Outlive I he newest stars.
Tn a Fod. A few years aco, there
lived in thu town of , a son ol Judne
U.. whom wo will call Joe, who fre
quently imbibed more than he could
comfortably carry- There also re-ided
in the neighborhood a painter named V
who kept a saloon Now W., was a
.rreal practical joker. Oo one occasion,
Joe came into W.'s saloon, and rather
early in the morninagot. very much in
toxicated, and finally fell asleep in his
chair. Joo was very near sighted, and
always wore specks. After he had slept
smie time, W. took off his speck-, black
ed the clases, put them back again,
lighted the lamps, aud awoke Joe, tell,
ing him that it was about twelve o'clock
at night, aud he wanted to shut up.
Joe stat ted, and rcmaiktd that ho
bad slept some time.
W. then said :
"Joe. it is very dark, aud if you will
bring it back again, I will loud you a
lantern."
W. lighted the lanlern. gave it to
Joe and helped him up stairs. Joe

Mr. Smooth's First Waltzc
BY CI.ARA AL'OUSTA.
T'tu as respectab't' and nice a youn
jent as you can find in lie tipfird. to S-i
limbing about the test of creation. 1
you know of one more respectablcr, jn
vou send him to me. by express, at, m
expene and I'll take the stificnimr ou
of him qnick'n light. My patent Cot
lolidated E Pluritius U mi in Ritters wi;'
do the business for any man.
Ol course you've lioern tell ot then
bitters? Evenbodv lias! From tlo
(iultot Pattgotiy to the burning mouti
tains iu Jvmi-carky they're known and
took, and recommended 1 The man in
the aioou himself would use 'em ! The
Eiupror of Mexicu keeps 'em allers by
him, and his wite Mrs. Charlotte, she
never goes to bed without taking a dose
of 'em.
Well, I'm the m m that discovered
these wonderful bitter, and my name is
Samuel Smooth, and I was horned and
brought in the town of Hf mpt'ord, iu
the Commonwealth of New Hampshire.
I don't hesitate lo say, that nothing
can stand alongside ot my bitters. It
you don't believe it, jut you get a bot
tle and take 'em faithfully, and if you
don't wish you hadn't, then I'll give
you another bottle.
They're sweet to smell,
They're smooth to take,
They'll make you well
Ot fet in ich ache :
They'll dense the blood,
And make you feel
Treuiendeous good
And limber as an eel.
I made the poitry myself, and if
there's anybody that it don't suit, why
iust let 'tin make some u.ero on the
same subject.
I took half a bottle of my bitters once,
and I thought I shouldn't live from one
eud to tother ! Mann said I looked
just like a wrung out disho!oth. Noth
nig in em but yeast boiled iu new rum.
Perlectly harmless ; a kitten inignt take
'em and never know what she was
lapping of. They'll make the old
young, and vicy versey they'll operate
just as you want 'em to ! only two dol.
I nr., i holt a ouour to the nrice or irolii.
which is falling so fast that I suspect
to be able to afford em fur nothing
afore long.
Well a little better'n a fortnight ago
I went to the city of I guess I wont
tell the name for fear other cities will
bcjdlus to establish au agency for
my bitters
1 bad fu4 rate luck, and as there was
going to be a ball at the Washington
House I concluded to see a little of
high life, and attend.
1 got a pair of white pautaloons. tight
as inv skiu, a scarlet neck tie. a squiz
zimr irluss. and a nuirot white kids.
1 hadn't no female acquaintances, so
I 1avn inv and adv a do ar to fi in one
lor me. She bi nug one rii;ht along
as slick a looking gal as ever you see;
with blue eyes, and yellow hair done
oi.ti one ot those ere rats with both
euds a nicking out.
Her name was Pora Smith, and after
a little palaver, I hitched onto her, and
pcraded her into the ball room. Nearly
everybody that was able to be out was
there. I expect there'd have been a
good many more present that was ou
beds of sickuess, if they'd only have took
my bittets tl e day afore.
It was u gay time. There was a
whole troop of fellers, whisking as many
gals round and loutid as fast as ever
they could whirl 'em, and the air was
tuii of false curls frizet'es, walerf'als, and
i J..OS I picked up a whole pocket
full to carry home to sister Periwinkle,
and 1 might have got a good m my
more it 1 hadn't been afraid of bursting
my tights, tor thev growed closer and
closer every minnit. The lying tailor
that I bought 'cm of, sod they'd stretch.
but he never made a bigger mistake in
his lite.
Do you dauoe, Mr. Smooth ?" said
Miss Smith.
"No " caid I "that is, Missmitl.
only a little for my own amusement" I
happened to remember what Matti
Sophie Jouesall' M says when she's usk
ed to play ou her piauny forty.
I'd neVv.r even seen any dancing, fo
my folks was Q iiKers. and would lux
put me wi a strait jacket if I had ve'
tured to li ut at a wish for such ungodla
kickinsup.
"Oh, dear!" sail Pora "I am s.
sorry !
A set was just torming. I looked i
her eyes which w is growing red nun
the corners, and resolved to go in if .
never cume out.
"MifS Smith" said I "shall

Shu put her arm around my, nook

I broke a string ot yellow beaos into

'Stop there ! stop ! this lady's flounce

whirling a woman wi'h nothing on her
but a few fl iunoes and a couple of bun
ches of flowers.
I didn't know whether he was speak

what was more I didu't care so I kept
right on.
The women wa hung fast to my but

' Let go ol Dora and me !" yelled I
"I'm a little green in this ere humming

" Release my drapery!" said she

"HaintL'otit" said I "and I don't

"I he wretch !'' cried she "Its makes
mc shudder to speak of him."
" Have a bottle of my hitters ! They're
a grand pacific for the shivers '.'' said I,
pilling a bottle from my pocket."
She struck at it, knocked it out ot my
hand, aud spilt the contents all over my

old Mrs. Call was very hard of hoar,
ing. being somewhat advanced in years.
II. i daughter Lydia was a bouncing

well how to get one up. Lyd a had
arranged a junket, and the young mn
and maids were all on hand Among
tbe rest was the General one of ,em.
In the midst of the fun i'i popped old
deacon , to see how the widow
fared. This was a wet blanket to the
morriment, and the deacon held on till
Lvdia was out of all patience. She
wished he would go, ai:d by aod by he
jets up to depart.
"Oil, Deacon" said mother Call,
"don't think of going before tea. Oh,
do stop to eat."
I be good UeacoD, ao strongly urged,

"Well. 1 rather think 1 will, as tne

"What did he say, Lyd ?'' asked the

I.ydia had a ready answer.
"lie says he will not, to day, mo'her,

"Oh, well, some other day, Deaoon,
won't you J" said mother Call, as she
showed the Deacon out.
"Smart girl, that," said the old Dea
con, as he trudged along home.
She'll find her way through, I'll war

An old man an inverterate amok.
er had learned that the general some.
lines, in tact frequently, smokes, set
