T I M E.

The Spring once more resumes her reign,
And nature is herself again.
The leaflets spread—the flowers unfold,
And many a warbled tale is told.
I cannot view a time like this—
A holiday of smiling bliss—
Without a wish to weave a rhyme,
In hailing happy Easter time.
Come, cheerful feast, In welcome come,
With active stir and busy hum;
Cold must the senseless bosom be,
Which cannot glow at meeting thee.
A special charm this time has got,
Which other holidays have not.
Aid dearly do I love to mark,
Thy smiling groups—thy busy park ;
Thy gardens and thy crowded fairs,
Where many a happy heart repairs.
And hence thy welcome do I sing,
fright glorious holiday of Spring.
Thy near approach, for near thou art,
Has wrought a change in MOSES' Mart,
Where purchasers in thousands press
For articles of

RASTER DRESS.
MOSES and SON have dresses prime
For happy, smiling Easter time ;
Fashions for Spring, entirely new,
At MOSES' Mart are brought to view.
New cloth, new workmanship, new style,
Here merit an approving smile.
THE HATS AND CAPS
Are also prime,

And suitable for Easter time.
No point in quality and shape,
Do MOSES suffer to escape ;
But any one can plainly see,
The Mats are what they onght to be.
THE BOOTS AND SHOES
Provided there,

Are just the goods fir Easter wear.
Better. I'm sure we. e never known,
For I have proved it by my own.
The stock of
HOSIERY AND SHAWLS,
For equal commendation calls.
There's nothing in the Spring attire
But what the public must admire.
And reader I would have you know
That every thing is purchase(' low.
And thus would I conclude my rhyme
On MOSES' Mart and Easterilme.

14 One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense it right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
hitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing harry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hiadranees to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should sot be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item
in the compact; It alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect wesnd more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is.
each (by peat, is stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively
refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hiadered
oy mieinterpretatien of their 'apposed contents, from obtaining
then. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
ler the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid,' and " How to be Nappy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hour, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and postbox to this ob-
servance of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the " sunny side of the way." The above works may be had of
