My mother's voice : ! how..:often creeps -
Its cadence on my lonely hours !
Like healings sent on wings of sleep,
Or dew upon the unconscious flowers
I might forget her melting prayer
While ple'asures pulses madly fly; _
But in the still, unbroken air,
Her gentle tones come stealing by—
And years of sin and manhood flee,
And leave me at my Mother's knee.
Otte Look of nature, and the print
Of beauty on the whispering sea,
Gives still to me scomelineatnent
Of what I have been taught to be.

to be found ih a bock published in 1656.

ANECDOTE of GrIRARD.—StepIIOD Gir
ard, the rich Frenchman who founded the
institution in Philadelphia which boars
his name, had a favorite clerk, and he al
vays said "he intended to do well by
Ben Lippinccitt." So When*Ben got to
be twenty-one, he expected to. hear Mr.
Girard say something of, his, future pros
p,ecia, and perhaps lends helping hand
in starting him in the werldi but the "old
fox.earefully avoided the subject. Ben
mustered courage.
"I suppose_ I ,am now free, sir," said
he, ",end I thought I would, say some
thing to you as to my future course.—
what do you think I had better do?"
~."-Yes, yes, I know you are, " said the
old millionaire, " and my advice is that,
you learn the cooper's trade r " • ,
This application of ice nearly froze
Ben opt but recovering his equilibcium,
ho said, if .61r. Girard was in earnest, he
"I am in earnest," he replied.
. Ben terthwith sought the best cooper
in Spring Garden, beanie an apprentice,
and in duo time could matte as good a
barrel as the'best. He announced to old
Stephen that he had graduated, and was
ready to set np in business. The old man
seemed gratified, and: immediately order
ed three of the best barrels he could
turn out. Ben did his prettiest, and
wheeled them up to the old man's count
ing room. Old Girard pronounced them
first-rate, and demanded the price.
" One dollar," said Ben, "is as tow as
I can live by."
"Cheap-enough—make out your bill."
The bill was made out v, and old §teve
settledqt with a check dri2o,ooo, which
he itecompanied, with this little moral,
to theeffeCt that Iredjainin now had-a
trade, - Whichle could fail bit . ok on in case
he did not succeed in business.
ANOTIIER:MURDER BY NEGROES.--We
learn from the Helena (Ark.) Shield that
'three nogro fellows, two of them the
propertY of Clayton Rodgers, the othdr
belonging to a sister living in Tennessee
were week 'edged in the county jail,
upon a charge of murder, they having on
Thursday night last, upon the.lantation
-of Jas. Rodgers," Esq., in the Walnut
Bag, murdered the oversee; Jos..-Pow
ers, by strangulation. They went to the
room about -11 &clock where Powers
was asleep; and with a strap. of coarse
Lowell cloth. strangled him to 0011.—
We understand that they have ecinfeSsed
the crime.

TIIE OLD QAiE.I , I Bucazr.The follow
ing reminiscence of Sarmiel Woodworth
possesses sufficient interest, we think, to
warrent us in presenting it to our read_
ers. It is a.portion of a private letter,
recently received from one whose author
ity in the matter can not be questioned.
In reference to the period of the produc
tion of the'_" Old Oaken Bucket," the
writer says It was written in , tthe
spring orsunruter of 1817. The, family
were living' ali,tle time in Duane Street.
The poet c.‘,,me-Lkoale to dinner one very
warm.day, : heving walked from his office,
somewheroill ear thp foot of„ Wall Street.
Being numb heated„witlr the exercise,
be poured himself out 'a glass- of water
—New York pump water—and drank it
at a draught,exclaiming e as he, replaced
the tumbler °alba table L. '"rhat is very
refreshing but howrauch more.-refresh
ing would it be to take a good long
drought, this warm day, from the old oak
en bucket-I left hanging in my fathers
well, at home!" Bearing this,'the poet's
wife, who was' always suggestive Indy,
Beliin, Why wodld:pt th'at be a
pretty Zubjeetr for - apPein?' The poet
took the hint, and,"tinder the inspiration
of thd'inottient, sat doWn and poured out
froin his very soul thOic.' beaiftiful lines
which have immortalized the name of
Woodworth."
AN EXTRAORDINARX SNOKSII.-A man
in "gngland has won a wager of 40 by
smoking eleven pounds of strong sugars
within twelve-hours. Thu feat was m
oon:7o6nd cdi'anteatribbat between Lon
don'and bhelesa. The task was begun
at 1.0 A. M.., - and ended at 7 P. M. In
the course 'olnine honrs - andtweaty
utes 72 sugars-were fairly smoked out,
the greatest fautatei consumed being
in the second hour, when the smoker dis
posed of no less than: sixteen. The
smoker declared that he felt net the
slightest difficulty or unpleasantness
throagbont - his• nine hours and twenty
minutes work, and calculates that if the
match had gone.en to the end ,he should
have won by half an-hour. The , only re
freshments taken.duking•the .progress of
the match was,Achop.at two o'clock, the
eating of-which _occupied twenty minutes,
and a gill and .a half of brandy in-cold
Water at interValsrduring the smoking.—
The , betting'when the match was first
riiade' - was six and seven to four against
the.smoker ; but after a public trial at
the White. Rear, Pideadilly, when the
smoker consumed au enormous eight
penny Seger in three minutes, offers wore
made to bet six to four against time.
