OF IONS!!
Oa ! many and rich are the treaiires that lie
In Memory's ina gic hall !
And alight fruni the dim old Past, coming down
Thtonglithe misty night, is around them thrown
And glimmers Upon them. all. • ,
We walk among them, and scarce can see
Through the midst of blinding tears,
There are gems of beauty, cankered by rust,
And rarest jewels covered with rust—
' be treasures of vanished years. , •
There .are (am, and voices, and glances,and songs
bung in lite's early day ;
There's r lather's hie (wag, a mother's prayer--
'•Goti save my child !"—as she breathed it _there,
And gently passed sway. "
There's a house by the brook, with its rusty porch,
And the shady elms at the dodr
There are ehddren's voices, that. sung there With
glee,
And one—oh ! how sweet Was the melody, •
Lye depth aw. pt the barp•string o'er !
Then's the meadow path whew we loved to walk
IN hen the toil of the day was o'er,
With no one beside us. Oh ! how we yearn
Fur the hmeil and the head who may not return, •
With smiles to greet ua more !
Oh ! many and rich are the treasures that lit;
In-lhumetyls - secret - cell !
And voices come stmoding and and low.
Frodri the Andy realms of the •long ago,"
Like songs from sumo fairy shell.
p Pint.
For over !—oft how lightly spoke!) !
Softly [availed by lips we love;
Words that tell of faith unbroken,
Champion as the stars above.,
Which we fondly hope will lost ;
terbi — er Kinds confess, for ever
Ali our joy on earth is past.
For ever !—what a world of feeling
Lies within those simple words—
To the raptured scut revealing
Al; that life of bliss affords.
if ut. slat. ! e'en while they linger
eat the lips we hold so dear, •
Fete loth I'll her warning finger.
Teething us that change is near.
For ever!—'tis a dream of heaven !
Such as none on earill can know
For true happiness is given .
Not to nny here below.
But beyond this world of sighing
Realms there are of peace and rest,
Where in love and joy undying
We fir ever shall be blest !

The followina pretty little'etOry i 6 narra
ted by FredeeiCaßremer who.vouch'es forita
truthfulness:
In the ; University of Upaula,'in Siejen;
lived a young student, -noble youth i iisith
great love, for studies, bu t .without the
means of pursuing them. , Ito was 'poor, and
without connections., Still he studied, liv
ing in.great• poverty, but keeping.a cheerful
heart, sod trying to look at the future,
•
which looked so grim at him. ills good
humor, and excellent, qualities made him be-'
loved by, his young comrades. One day he
was standing on the square withsome of
ltem,___prattling away an hour of leisure
when the attention of the yoUng men e
came arrested by a young and elegant lady,
who, at the side of an elderly one, was Slow
ly walking over the place. It .was the
daughter of the Governor, of
,UpSule,
' living
in the city, and the lady, was : governess. She
was generally known for her goodness , and
gentleness of character, and looked at with
admiration by all the- students. As the
young men stood gazing at her as she pasied
on like a graceful vision, ono of them sud
denly exclaimed:
"Well, it would be worth somethirig to
have a kiss from such a mouth 1"
The poor student, the horo of our story,
who looked on that poor Angelic Face,:ex
claimed, as if by inspiration.
' "Well 1 think I could have it !"
%% hat !" cried his friends in a chorus,
"are you crazy ?Do you know her ?" •
"Not at all I" he answered, "but I think
She would kiss me now if I asked her."
"What ! right in this place—before all our
eyes I"'
"In this place, before your eyes."
"Freely ?"
"Freely."
"Well, if she will give you a kiss in that
manner, I will give you a thousand dollars !"
exclaimed one in the group:
"And I "—"and I, exclaimed three or
our of ors; or it so apponsi t at severs
rich young-men-were in the group s —and - the
bets ran high on so improbable cent. The
challenge was .made and received in less time
thamwe take to tell it...
Our hero, (my authority tells not whether
he was handsome otplain; I have my pecu
liar ideas for believing that he was rather
plain, but singularly good-lookiniat the same
time), immediately walked up to the young
lady, and said :
"Nine fraulien, my own fortune is now in
your hands.!"
She looked_at him with astonishment, but I
arrested her steps. He proceeded to state
his name and condition, and his aspirations,
and related simply and .truly what had just
now passed between him and his comrades.
The young lady listened attentively, and
at his ceasinV to speak, she said, blushing,
but with great sweetness,
"If by so-little a thing soinuch goodan
be accomplished, it would be foolish fur me
to refuse your request;" and' publicly in the
public square sh — e kissedhim. •
Next day the student was sent for by the
Goveriwy. He wanted - to-see the man who
dared to
,seek kisS from hie daughter in
that way, and whom she had consented to
kiss so. lie received hint with a scrutiniz
ing bow, but after an hour's conversavon
was to phased with hint that he ordered him
to dine at his table during his studies at
Upsula. Our young friend pursued his
studies in a manner which soon made him
regarded as the most prominent studens in
the University.. Three years were now pass
ed since the day of the first kiss, when the
pug, mm was allowed to give a second kiss
to, th e daughter of the, G.prertor. He be
came, late:, ono of the greatest scholars in
Sweden, and as much respected for his ac
quiren.ents as for hit °ha:at:ter.' His works
will ent.ure while time tests among the works
of science, ;tad f o it.s happy uni an sprang
a family. well known in Sweden 'even at the
present time, -and whose wealth and high
position in saeiety are regarded, as trifles in

Stop the Runaways.
Ran away on Thtirsday night last,'says
the (Md.) Ihtion, froufthe city of Richmond
in the Province of Virginia, a sot'of inden
tured apprentices to the Cottoti Mantintotar,
ing business. Said' apprentices were tiara
ly, disorderly, im indent and disobedient to
or in, ir
Auld hearted, good old master who is
-known -throughout-the-civilized- world_ as
UNCLE SAM, and being well satisfied that
they could never attain the high plates to
which they aspired as long as Uncle Sam,
who knew them thoroughly, was.at the head
of affairs, they secretly conspired
.together
for the overthrow of his Government, and
strove 'to make "Cotton their King." They
succeeded in deluling many, and finally met
iro what they called Congress, in the city
above mentioned ? but on the said night hav
ing business as k supposei, in another di
rection, and without the least apprehension
on account of the appearance of the under
signed before Yorktown, they suddenly left
for parts unknown, withoutbidding their
friends adieu! The clothing carriel away
by these apprentices, is not remembered,
but tiny one can easily identify them by
their boastful and swaggering ,tnaimers.—
Where they have fled, is not known, but it
is generally believed that they are on the
look out for the last "ditch" about Which
they prated so glibly smite time' since. 'A
small Cotton Doll baby, and an eyeless horn
button, is the reward offered for the appre
hension of this batch of fleet footed chival
rous scamps, but no thanks will be given for
their return. Loyal Union men are warned
not to harbor any of these runaways, as I
am determined to enforce the drum head taw
against any one so offending.

Respeot for the Aged,
In ancient, Sparta there was,a law which
compelled the youths to rise when old per
son approached; to be silent when they
spoke; to`yield them the - pall} when 'they
met. With. us, what the law does not. en
force, decency should prampt us to perform.'
Respect for the aged teaches such a beauti
ful"moral:that thOse who 'forget to - practice
it themselves can do no less than applaud it
in others. An ancient Atheiatrwas looking
far a seat at the Oluie Gamin but the
benches ware filled. Some of his yvothful
citizens called to him to approach them and
when ha had, with much difficulty, compli

GOT MOUE TUAiI ITS'SUARE.—An HA
man—employed on a' farm, was told by the
farmer that. one of. his. dutiei, would be , to.
feed. the . chickens. This he did daily;, hitt
he observed, with' much ....concern, that when
he gave 'thertytheir - cornmeal pudding; and'
old drake that was among the'ffock shoveled
it in with ,his broad billtnuch caster, than the ,
chickens could .do. At lust an idea struck,
him. One evening, as usual, ivhile Pat was
distributing' putldina,,to the fowls, 'he Cont-'
menced soliloquizing in the'fol!aling manner ,
"Arrah; bedad an' here ye are agen, diV
ilish spoonbill Itiadrtitiect;' yelley'Under the
barn all day; and when say chi-ky,
be St. Patrick, ye are!' the ,first one here,
and ye pick. up three, mouthfuls all in ono,
an' now, be jabers, an' i'll fix ye for that,,in'
so I will." 'Sure 'enough Pat' called 'the drake
close' to hint,. and 'nude . a grab - and , nabbed
:"An'' it's welcome ,ye are, blast yer'
unly pictor; when I'm done ye'll not pick up
more nor yer share," I , Vith that Pat got out
his knife and trimmed the drake's till off
sharp and slim, like. a chicken's, and then
exultingly threw him down, saying,."Now,
be jabers, ye can pick up the feed. !long side
the bob-tai ioostar. '
OunErt. r --Never leave,th:u;;,s lay!ng about;
a shawl here;. a pair , of slippers there, and a,
bonnet somewhere else—trusting to a'servant
to set things - right: No matter how many
servants you have,- it is a miserable habit, and'
if its source is not in . the,intelleetu d and moral
character, it will inevitably terminatithei e,,
If you have used the dipper; towel, - tumbler,

Put things in their proper platys x~'souti as
they aro old enough to "uvs them; and if each
