A tradesman who could neither read
nor write himself, employed saucy boy
to write his letters for him. 1t happened
one day that this young rogue was at play,
when his master wanted him to write to
one of his customers, upon which he sent
for him, was very angry, and called him
puppy, which he usually did when out of
temper" Come sit down" says he eve
puppy you, and write, ye puppy you.''

Why" returned the master, say Sir.

venge for being child by his master, wrote
every word just as he said, and the letter
ran thus -
Sir, We puppy you, | have sent the goods YOU

sort, ye puppy you, and very Clean ye puppy you,

A BRIDAL sERENADE:
~ 4 mopERN WELSH HARPER.


ny A MODERN WELSH HARPER.
Wilt thou not waken, bride Of May,
While the flowers are fresh and the sweet birt
chime
Listen, and learn from my roundeiay,
How all life's pilot-boats sailed one day,
A match with Time.
Love sat on a lotus leaf afoat,
And saw old Time in his loaded boat
Slowly he crossed life's narrow tide,
While love sat clapping his wings, and cried,
:" WHO will pass Time :"
Prudence came frst-but soon was gone,
With helm and sail, to keep time on;
Care and Grief could not lend an oar,
And Patience said, (while he staid on shore)
~ wait for time"
Hone filed with flowers her cork-tree bark,
And lighted its helm with glow-worm spark;
Then love, when he saw her bark fly fast,
Said q lingering Time will soon be past
Hope outspeeds Time"
Wit when nearest old Time to pass
With his diamond oar, and boat ofglass,
feathery dart, from his store he drew,
And shouted, while far and swift it flew
90! Mirth kills Time"
But Time sent the feathery arrow back,
Hopes boat of amaranth missed its track;
Then Love made his butterfly pilots move,
And, laughing, said " They shall see how Love
Can conquer Time"
His gossamer sails he spread with speed,
But Time has wings, when time has need,
Swiftly he crossed life's sparkling tide,
And only Memory staid to chide
IMPLYING Time.
Wake, and listen, then, bride of May,
Listen, and heed thy minstrel's rhyme,
Still for thee some bright hours stay,
For twas hand like thine, they say,
Gave wings to Time.

highwaymen, defended himself with great
bravery, but was at last overpowered and
his pockets rifled. The robbers expected
from the extraordinary resistance he made.
that he had considerable money about him,
but on examination of his pockets, they
were surprised to discover that the whole
treasure which the sturdy Caledonian had
been defending, consisted of no more than
crooked six-pence. :" The Deuce is in

from despising domestick duties, will hold
them in high regard, because they will see
that the whole happiness of life is made up

these must depend upon the punctual prac-

Self-love SO often gets possession of our
minds, that we usually find our good-nature
results from no other cause, than a good
opinion of ourselves, and that which we
think the world has formed of us.
To clear this mist from our deluded eyes
Ito put all our fancied virtues to the prop
er test-let one who knowsus well, whisper
to US that we are hasty in temper naughty
in spirit-prone to speak i'll ofothers and let
us see the effect of these changes on our
minds, that by analysing the feelings which
there arise, we may be humbled by finding
no small share of the droSs of human nature
ALLOWING those intellectual treasures of the
mind which should be kept pure and bright.

FROM THE NEW-BRUNsWIcK TIMES.
A SONG FOR THE FARMER.
A farmers life s the life for me;
Town love it dearly;
And ev'ry season, full of glee,
take its labour cheerly-
To plough or sow,
To. reap or NOW,
Or in the barn to thresh, Sir,
All IS one to me;
plainly see
Twill bring me health and cash, Sir.
To customers the Merchant shows
His best broadcloths and satin,
In hopes to sell suit of clothes
But 10! they beg pattern;
Which, pinned on sleeve,
They take their leave
Perhaps they III buy, since low t isl
And if they do,
The sale he II rue,
When paid, Sir, with "notice."
The Priest has plaques as undesired,
When fiattered with call, Sir;
For though he preach like one inspired,
He cannot please 'em all, Sir
Some, wanting grace,
Laugh in his face,
When solemnly he s pressing;
Some sneeze or cough,
Some shuttle of,
And some are even doing.
The lawyer leads harrassed life,
Much like hunted otter;
And tween his own and others strife,
He s always in hot water;
For foe or friend,
A cause defend,
However wrong, must he, Sir;
In reasons spite
Maintain tits right
And dearly earn his fee, Sir.
The Doctor Is styled gentleman;
But this hold but humming;
For, like tavern waiting-man,
To every call he s" coming
Now here, now there,
Must he repair,
Or starve, Sir, by denying;
Like death himself,
Unhappy elf,
He lives by others dying.
The Soldier, deck in golden lace,
Looks wondrous fine, own, Sir;
But still envy not his place,
When batter'd to the bone, Sir,
TO knock my head
Against cold lead,
never had notion;
If that's the way
To rank, say,
Excuse me from promotion
The Sailor lives but in Jail,
With all the risk beside, Sir,
Ofpillage, founder, and of gale
This cannot be denied, Sir.
While | so snug
Enjoy my mug,
Or kiss my wife, and SO forth
When rain and storm
The night deform,
His duty bids him go forth
A FARMERS life then let me live.
Obtaining, while lead it,
Enough for self, and some to give
To such poor souls as need it.
Ill drain and fence,
Nor grudge expense
To give my land good dressing
I'll plough and sow,
Or drill in row,
And hope from Heaven a blessing.
