FORGIVE AND FORGET

For the Liverpool Standard,

Id would be lonely

The garden a wilderness left to deform,
If the flowers but remembered the chilling winds only
And the fields gave no verdure for fear of a storm !
Oh ! still in thy loveliness emblem the flower,
Give the fragrance of feeling to sweeten life's way,
And prolong not again the brief cloud of an hour
With tears that but darken the rest of the day!

Forgive and forget ! there's no breast so unfeeling
But some gentle thoughts of affection there live,

And the be—st of us all requires something concealing,
Some heart that with smiles can forget and forgive!
Then away with the tears from these beautiful eyes ;
That brow was no home for such cares to have met ;
Oh ! how could our sp.
If Heaven had refused to forgive and forget

irits e'er hope fur the skies

the averages are to be taken ; secondly, to employ a respon-

her Majesty's government have to propose to the house.

the duty is at •present imposed. I find that when the price
of wheat is from 665. per quarter to 675. the duty is 20s. Bd.
It then falls 2s. in price until corn is between 68s. and 695.,
when the dut- is 16s. Bd. At 70s. the duty is 12s. Sd., and

The supply of English Wheat continues unusually small for the
season, anti the condition was generally very indifferent this morn-
ing, in consequence of which a reduction of 2s per qr. has taken,
place on any but the very finest dry qualities, of which there was
scarcely a dry sample at market. There was less doing in free
foreign, but last week's currency was supported, and the state of
the market for bonded Wheat remains the same. Barley is a steady
sale at the rates of this day se'nnight, and there is no alteration in
the value of either Beans or Peas. The Oat trade continues very
flat

WEDNESDAY, Feb. 9

The business has been very small this morning, almost entirely
confined to the retail trade fer immediate use. The exposition of
the Corn Law project this e ening occupies universal conjecture,
but of its tenor nothing further whatever is certainly known up to
the present hour. Speculators, therefore, are unwilling to venture
upon business, but some important changes are anticipated on the

Punch. Wareing WeLn,

Liverpool

There is only one step they say from the sublime to the
ridiculous : the present is a case in point. Above we have

made remarks after having contemplated some of the works of

I .
the greatest poet that ever wrote ; and now before us, present-
ing itself to view, comes Punch—equally immortal as the great

bard we admit.

but certainly not quite so sublime. Punch

without exception, is the merriest production of the present
day. There is more whim, satire, and jokery in his three-
penny-worth than in many a magazine at half-a-crown. The
January part contains the almanac—which, per se, is the
very quintessence of merriment—some capital pencillings,
good stories, anecdotes, absurdities, and jests. Those who
have read the almanac—what .a queer term by the way—
" read the almanac !"—but it must be read to be enjoyed—
have seen the fate of Jinks and the Coal case. At page 36
we tind the Slate Merchant " trying his own coals." Punch
has not a compeer in the republic of letters.

ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL is universally acknow-
ledged as well deserving the station it now holds of the
highest public distinction. It prevents Hair from falling off
or turning grey to the latest period of life ; changes grey hair
to its original colour; frees it from scurf. and renders it
beautifully soft, curly, and glossy. In dressing Hair, it keeps
it firm in the curl, uninjured by damp weather, crowded
rooms, the dance, or in the exercise of riding. To Children,
it is invaluable, as it lays a foundation for a beautiful head
of hair. _ _ . _ .
