To chase the clouds of nature's night From fallen creature man. That mighty orb of wisdom great. High Heaven’s devised scheme; Its genial rays our soul's do guide. To scan creation's frame. All nature owes that mighty hand That made her vast domain ,- The mountains high, the ocean wide, The vast extended plain. Bu‘. what are all those lovely scones To him that never knew. And treads on pearls at every step, Spread glittering to his view. Oh l cheering thought, there still is hope That he may fully know Their great first cause, and why it was Their witness is so true. Just come with me,poor iiutauglit one. And let us sit and hear How learning, with i s mighty powers, Doth charm the listening ear. 0n Richmond Hill, that lovely spot Where learning doth abound. Great. mighty, and expansive minds Within its range are found. That noble seat of literature, Our County Union School~ Would I could guide my slender pen It’s blessings to unfold. Two brilliant orbs of literature Within its halls do shine; ‘ Their genial rays our youths do guide Up science sleeps to climb. The one. a female. mild and fair, With wisdom richly stored : And richest laurels justly sever, Fresh from the Normal Board. 1 give her school the highest praise. For justly his her due: To those young minds I say to her, Be ever kind and true. Then out to her a noble youth Of much acquired skill-- To teach the young and simple mind To do their Maker's Will. I sat and viewed with great delight His rightly ordered school; Go on thou youth of science bright, Thou soon shall .teach the goal. J. McCosszLL. ‘ Headt'ord, January 16, 186 ‘. liliiittllumnun, mg Somebody says that every cord of wood given to the poor is rc-corded above. No man can leave a better legacy to the world that a well-educated family. Prosperity is no just scale; adversity is the only balance to weigh friends in. A ‘down-east’ butcher advertises for an assistant ‘who can make both ends meant.’ Tile woman who neglects IIPI‘ Iiusbrnd's shirt front is n ll. the wile of his bosom. A young girl is a fishing rod -â€"-l he eyes are the llOuk, the smile the bolt, the lovir the gudgeon and marriage the butter in which he is fried. ‘ An Trish stationer, after advertising a variety of articles, gives the following nota bane: ‘ 'l‘o regular customers, I Sell wafers gratis.’ Teeloliilism forbids a man to touch anything that can inloxicnleâ€"-cxcept a pretty girl's lips. You may taste that article, signing the pledge. if you‘ll do it discreetly and with moderation. A subscriber to a moral reform paper called at a Past-Office in New York one day, and inquired ifllie Friend of Virtue had come. ’ No. replied Llll.‘ Post master, ‘lllcre has been no such person here for a long time.’ ‘My brudders,’ said a waggisli darkey to a crowd, ‘in all affliction. in all ob your toubles, dar is one place you can always find sympathy.’ ‘ What-I Wlltttfl‘ I’ shouted schral of his auditors. ‘ In dc dictionary 1’ he replied, rolling his eyes Skyward. A darkey who blacks boots at the National 1'10th in Washington has the follownig motto conspicuously displryed over his stand»â€" No North! No South! No E35?! No West! No Trust! Docsusc UP A Junca.-â€"A story of Ottiwell Wood, when a witness in some case at the Assich, may be, known to many of the present generation of readers. On being sworn, be was asked his name and gave it. The Judge, puzzled with the unusual Christian name, which probably, he only imperfectly heard, requested the , witness to repeat it, which was done, with no better success, and the Judge somewhat lestlly said;â€"‘ Have the good. ness to spell your name, sir.‘ To this re. quest the witness responded as follows :â€" 0 double T I double U E double L Double U, double 0, D. ‘ This doubling upon the Judge‘com- pleter overcame his lordship, and he gave up all efforts to spell the name in sheer despair. WHICH IS Wiilcri'lâ€"‘ Ab, Pat. Pat 1’ said a school mistress to a thick-headed urchin, into wlicse muddv brain she was allmpting to beat the alphabet. ‘ I’m afraid you’lliibver learn anything. Now, what‘s that letter, eh?’ ‘ Sure. don’t you know. ma‘am 'I’ replied Pat. ‘ I thought you could have rccollectcd that.’ ‘ Why, mn’am '1’ ‘ Because it has a dot over the top of it.’ tOcli, ma’um! I mind it well; but sure, I tlilught it Miss fly-speck? ‘ Well. how, remember, Pat, it’s I.’ ' You. ma’am 'I’ *Nol no! not U, but I, blockliead! ‘ Och, yes! faith now I have it. ma’ain; you mean to say that you, not I. am a block- . head.’ ‘ Fool! fool l’ exclaimed the pedagoguess, almrst bursting with rage. 'Jist as you plaze,’ replied Pat; ‘fool or blockhvead, it’s no matter :Wltlcll years to lie. so long as you are free to own it.’ THE ALPINE FOREST. The principal forestoflhe tropics shows on irrimensorable wealth of vegetable forms in the most fiery and splendid colors; such an cxbaustible number of, individual plants. that a very small area offers to natural philosophers materials for discovery, employment, and study for a long period. The Alpine forest, on the contrary, is monotonousand. unpre- tentlons. Few types of plants iii proportion form the elements of which it is Composed; and these again. in their normal shapes, offer nothing strange or startling. Still loss is the Alpine forest clothed with attractive splendour of (1010f. A dark, sober bus is spread all over it. and only broken, melancholy tints intrude shyly into its depth. If we compare. again, tncir quantity of life, the Airierican forests presents a com- plete picture of the most wanton, indestructible victorious life. an er.- nobling of the vegetable power of reproduction. It is an uninterrupted jubilcc of I‘eSUI'l'eCll(111-â€"Llle everlast- ltig Easter in the kingdom of plants --cv::rvwh¢rc the princess of disso- lution is concealed - under the rich, luxurious foilage of the young, shining aftergrowth, and the happi- ness of eternal youth seems to pre- vail. The Alpine forest is a quiet field of the dead; one of those me- lancholy, dark places of natural cor- ruption where life and destruction come into immediate contact and re- clprocal action. In dull melancholy, the rough. dark-green pines and slen- der latches stand round the molder- ing corpses of their forefathers. 'l‘lic luxuriant fungus paraslically sucksmidjdrinks life and nourishment from the skeleton of its dead stem. And, finally, if we oppose the animal lifeâ€"the screaming, flickering, cry- ing, roaring, animal lifeâ€"of the American forests to the monstrous waste and dismal stillness of the Al- pine niountaiii-wood, how sharp is the contrast! There is heard the tumultuous roisc of quarrclling pitf- rots, liccompunicd by the strange. shrill screams of roaming, mischie- vious monkeys, the mingled hiiriiiooy of the cicadas. who carry on at mighty concert in the Brazillion forests; and between those, a fluttering life of numberlcss dragon-flies, and insects, shining like metals. who are hum- ming through the air like glittering jctvcls; the rustling of crawling snakes and vipers, and the fearful, howling tones of a crowd of unseen beasts from the interior of the mori- slrous labyrinth of plants; whilst the high Alpine forest rcsounds at most to the hollow, hammering laps of the Woodpecker. or. from tlic op- per air, the siliiice is broken by the long-drown piping cry of eagle. or vulture, Dead nature only walrus at times. and joins the harmony with a tone of thunder, when the ele- meals are in strife; the forest brooks rush out foaming, and lush wares over rock fragments; orthc aViilziii- clies thunder down the slopes, and the storm whistles through the tree- tops. Dark and poor, limited and rough uslhe Alpine forest appears when Opposed to his foster-brother across the sea. his depths conceal wondrous socrcl properties and strange wild charmsâ€"Wu; flips, 0r, Sketches of Life and .N‘uture int/1c Mountains, by H.

He opened his charge in the presence of the most august assemblage of rank and intellect that perhaps ever met iii VVestmllistcr Hall to listen to any single speaker. Oil the third day of the trial, which Was perhaps rheto- rically crnsidcrcd the most import- ant, with the documents in. has raised hands as a testimony to Heaven against the guilt of the person charged. with streaming eyes and with suffused countenance, be related how slow fires were made to lllfl'CI unmcotionnble tortures on lender women, how death mot life at the very gates and strangled it. His audience could endure the agony no longer. and burst out into tears. Mrs. Siddons confessed that all the horror and pity she had ever witnessed on the stage, sank into insignificance before the scene she had just Dt’lleld. Mrs. Sheridan fainted ; and the stern Lord Chan ccllor Thurlotv, who, always in the most headstrong way had insrsted on Hastings’ innocence, was ob- served for once in his life to shed a tear. ‘ This pi'croriition,’ said Winham, himselfaii orator of great accomplishments, as Burke closed his address, ‘ was the noblest cvcr uttered by man.’ It may aslonisb not a few to be told that his speech was not written, that the speaker trusted to his never falling appro- priate language in which to clothe his ideas as they crowded upon his brain. A man. named Stone, exclaimed in -- tavcrn: I‘ll bet five pounds that IIIIIVP the hardest name in this company. "Done,’ said one of the company. ‘ What is your name I’ ‘ Stone,’ said the first. “Hand me the money,’ said the other, ‘my name .I Harder.’ d . G 0 RM L E Y .
