What, do withont a paper? No; I've tried it to my sorrow; So, to subscribe for one I'll go, Nor wait until to-morrow, lovers drown or hang themselves, Or other foolish caper, I never get to bear it. I do not take the piper. Why, there's my neighbor, Jothsm Stout, He always hears the news, And having news to talk about, He never gets the blues, • While others yawn in ennui, His mind is light as vapor; The cause is plain to half an eye, He always takes the paper. While neighbor Stout hears all the news, And knows each current price, And always minds his P's and Q's, By taking good advice, I cannot tell the price of calves. . Or poultry, coffee, tape, or Any kind of merchandise, Because I have no paper. Though I have studies which require Much time and mental labor, Yet I can spare a little time, B As Well as Stout, my neighbor. 4 „ Though tine be precious , I can use - '". l A longer mid-night taper, And time take time to read the news— Therefore I'll take a paper. But now which one shall I'select, So many greet my vision ; One stubborn fact whlchl detect influence my decision, The neatest paper and the best, Should be the one for me ; And when I bring it to the test, My borne paper I see. "Ger ras Bursa."—How often do we bear this complaint made. The reason generally ascribed is that something has gone wrong, but , if you will question the patient in regard to health, habits, &c., you will very often find that indigestien is the prime cause ; the intimacy of the brain and stomach is very close, and nathing so sours the feelings and dispo sition as dyspepsia. It is a singular fact that most suicides are dyspeptic's. If our nourishment is properly digested, the brain is free and unoppreesod, and will solve our troubles, pointing out sun shine ahead and inclining no to look on the bright side of hfe ; thus is it our dutyto guard against this monster—in digestion—and we know of nothing so potent to assist digestion as Ooe's Dys •pepsia Cure.

Early-life Incident of Carl Schurz The Paris correspondent of the New York Times, under date of March 30th, takes the arrival in that city of the Ger man poet, philosopher and patriot, Got fried tinkel, as the teat for an' incident in the European hider) , of Carl Schurz, who is no less distinguished in this country than upon the continent. We quote as follows In the literature of Germany, Kinkel occupies a high position as a poet and historian. When the Revolution of 1801 . broke out, he was a Professor at the University Of Bonn, and his strong Democratic principles induced him to take a prominent part in the struggle. Be fought, was made prisoner by the royal authorities, was tried for treason, and was sentenced to many years' im prisonment at hard labor. Among Kinkel's companions at this time was a young student, not yet twen ty of age, named Carl Schurz, who was also captured, tried by court mar tial, and sentenced to be shot. Schurz, however, more fortunate than his Pro fessor, succeeded in escaping across the French frontier, and was safe. Kinkel was sent to a common prison, placed among criminals of the vilest sort, and set to work making shoes. Young Ger many, still trembling with the excite ments of the recent Revolution, learned with indignation the treatment inflicted upon the eminent poet and scholar, and numerous petitions were sent to the Pruisian Government, praying that his situation might be ameliorated. To all this the authorities paid no attention the protestations ceased, and Kinkel seemed likely to be abandoned by his friends. There was one, however, who did not desert him. Carl Schurz, left Paris, disguised himself in rage, - and, de fying the - scaffold, re-entered Prussia with an organ on his back. In the day, he begged his bread on the high road ; at night, he laid aside hie organ, and vie. ited the abodes of his former compan ions, and the friende„of German liberty, to endeavor to re-awaken their interest in the fate of the imprisoned patriot. In this way he traveled three hundred leagues on foot, playing the organ through many towns and villages, care fully maturing his plans, and sleeping in barns or under hedges. Oa one once . .eisin he was stopped by two Prussian gendarmes, who inquired where he was going. "To the neighboring town," replied Sehurz. "Would you like to earn a handful of pfenniogs ?" asked the others. - "Certainly." "Very well ; come .with us to our bar racks. We intend to give a dance this evening, and the airs of your organ will suit our purpose exactly." It was impossible to decline the offer of the seldiers without, exciting snap!. oleo ; so Schurz accepted, with, a great -show of gratitude, and during the whole night ground out waltzes and quadrilles -for a battalion of gendarmes. LefiVing undiscovered'the dangerous society of the military police, young Schurz con tinued his journey, and, a short time subsequently, information reached him that Kinkel's prison had been changed. ,He was now incarcerated at Spandau, and-placed under the personal supervi sion of the prison director.. Late one night, when the streets had become deserted, a post chaise, escorted ':by a guard of four drove rapid ly through the town of Spandan, and halted hefore the prison. An officer, in the uniform of a Colonel of the Royal Guard, alighted from the vehicle, and was soon in the premium of the Director, into whose hands he placed letter from the Minister of the Interior at Berlin, and-bearing the official seal.' Ricaii/iog the.packet with the respect dee to a communication from the King's Minis ter,, the Director opened the important missive, and read as follows: "A deep laid plot has been organized at Berlin, the object of whiCh is:tee : Oct the fOrcible release of the convict Kin kel, from the-hands of : the authorities. - We are now watching_ the - Moven:Cents 'of the conspirators, and are preparing to arrest them. order. however, to_ pre snot•the Toasibility of a surprise, the _bearer-of:the present letter, , Col. is commanded to take charge of your pris oner, whomhe,will immediately conduct to , the citadel ofhiagdebourg, and place him in the hands of the . GevernUctif that fortress.' Upon, reading this ministerial irijunc the4directer of the Spandau! prison `it 'once had 111'9 .3clahel awakened, ceased him to be securely ironed and placed in the post chaise, which set off on the road - to Magdebourg accompanied by the' Colonel and four dragoons, who rode with drawn sabres. All night long they traveled at 'rapid speed ; fresh bowies were instantly furn ished at each relay, the Colonel's de mand being accomponied by the magi cal expreseibir, "the , King's service." The unhappy prisoner, crouched in a corner of a vehicle, cared not what might be his fate—Germany had forgot ten him, and nothing could be worse than the noisesome dungeon at Spandau, Morning came et last, a gray winter's dawn, and the carriage stopped., The Colonel himself ,opened the door, and bade the prisoner alight. Without a word, poor Kinkel obeyed, and found himself standing on the sea-shore, a boat awaiting a few feet from the spot where he stood, and a ship, with the English flag at her mast-head, lying-to within sight. The prisoner uttered a cry of mingled, hope and despair. "Do you not know me, my dear old master ?" sobbed the - pseudo Colonel, tearing offhis false moustache, and clasp ing Kinkel in his arms, "I am your friend and pupil, Carl Schurz. Let us embrace each other once more on Ger man soil, and then, away for England 1" Kinkel could not reply, but burst into tears. In a. few moments more they were in the boat, and rowing lustily to ward the vessel in the offing, which had now hoisted the German Republican flag, in tokOn of recognition-of welcome. As they reached the ship's side, Kinkel, pale and trembling, lea ned upon Schurz's shoulder, and murmured "My wife, my ohildren—where are they ?" He had time to say no more, for, in another moment, Mme. 'Kinkel was in her husband's arms, and his children were clinging about his knees. " My mission is- accomplished," said young Schurz. "I had sworn, dear , mas ter, to restore you to liberty and . to your family. My duty is done." Upon. their arrival in LOndon, the pa triots were received . with transports of enthusiasm. The rich German _residents of the _British metropolis took upon themselves to provide for the brave young fellows who, in the disguise of Prussian dragoons, had aided Schurz in successfully carrying out his noble pre ject, and Prof. Kinkel himself commenc. ed.giving lectures on German literature, which met with immense success. Carl Schurz coon afterward parted from..his old preceptor, and set out to seek his fortune in the promised land across the broad Atlantic. His career ROI° Ifni ted'States is well known. He had left in Germany an aged father, who longed to see 'again his favorite son; but it is not easy- for a man to visit a country where certain death awaits him if detee ted. Still fortune , snified on Sobers. Risen high in faVor with President Lin coln, the German-American General was appointed Envoy and to the Court of Madrid, and fifteen years after his flight with Kinkel, he quietly re-visited his birth place. No Pruseian gendarme dared to lay a finger upon the condemned - felon, now a diplomatic rep resentative of one of the most powerful nations on the globe.

CELLARS POlSON:orre.—At this season of the year it should be especially re membereli that the cellar of a dwelling house is very likely to be a source of die ease to the whole family. The remnants of vegetables stored during the winter begin to decay on-the approach of warm weather, and the exhalations from these with ,the chilly dampness,, are liable , to produce sickness. Many a family has attributed to " Providence " the disease caused by the poisonous miasma arising from the neglected cellar. Everycellar shoild at times be cleaned by the remov al of au vestiges of decaying vegetables, fruits and food. A coat of strong lime white-wash upon the walls and ceiling, at least once, or better twice, a year, will greatly add not only to the hetatb. 'fulness of the cellar, but will also make it much more cheerful. - I A. naturalist says : " Last summer while walking in•my park, I observed a green wood-pecker alight on the ground some fifty paces.before me, look around to see if he was observed, then lie down and simulate death by stretching himself motionless, and hanging his tongue oat as fares possible. He occasionally pull ed it in his bill. He had selected a place near an ant bill. The ants thinking him dead would cover his tongue to devoui him ; when it was black with ants, he would swallow them, and repeat the trick until his craw could hold no more." sr A lady riding in one of the subur ban stages the other day politely asked a passenger who had got in to lay aside his cigar. The passenger took no notice of the request whereupon the lady very coolly leaned' over, and snatching the ci gar from his mouth, threw it into the road. With equal sang /rad the Bina er stretched out his band, and seising a poodle which was in his fair assailant's lap, flung it out of the carriage. "Turn about is fair play, Madame," the fellow provokingly added as be adjusted him self in his,Corner. Cr Sir Walter Raleigh was a great smoker, but enjoyed his pipe in secret. His servant, who had .never-teen -the operation of what was then a luxury, brought a tankard of beer into the room one day when Raleigh was smoking, and throwing the liquor into his master's face to extinguish him, he Van dawn stairs, crying oat, Fire I help I Sir Walter 'has studied tilthis head is On fire, and smoke bursts out of hie month and nose." or The owner of a large dog at Grand' Rapids, Hich,,a few days ago, rasped it, one hundred dollar looking-glass before his canine to worry him. * The dog flew' around, barking and growling. The owner was delighted and cried " sick: 'em ;" the dog " sicked'" the - mirror aid. the "other dog" disappeared at the same time. The joke rather turned on the owner. Sr Western`men are relfable. They have little hatchets and cannot tell a lie.

A Crane's filerrum—An exchange relates the following.funny mistake of a clerk in a dry goods store In a certain store, not over a thousand miles from here, the clerk, after returning from sup per, commenced putting things in their places for the night, when he came to what he thought was the "show image," a frame dressed in W013341e8 clothes, and having very mach the appearance of • feminine in the back, took her very gent: ly around her waist, calling / kr his old woman, with a few other remarks not commonly made by "young men" in the presence of ladies, when, to his astonish ment, the supposed piece of wire work turned round and slapped his face for the insult perpetrated. The clerk, In nocent-as he was, &laid do nothing more than apologize for his mistake. Sr When the committee of the Preach Academy were employed in pre paring the welt known Academy Dic tiimaii, Ouvier came one day into the room where they were holding a session. "Glad to see you, M. Olivier," said one of the forty; "we have just finished a definition of which we think quite antis factory,lut on which we Should' like to have your opinion. We have been de fining the word Crab, and explained it thus ; Crab, a small red fish which walks backwards." " Perfect, gentlemen," said Olivier, "only if you will give me • leave, I will make one small observation . in natural history. The Crab ; is not a not red, it does not walk back wards. With these exceptions your de finition is,eieellent." The beauty of a •reli,gioce life is one of its greatest recommendations. What does it profess I` Peace to all mankind.
