FROM THE SOUVENIR FoR 1929.
THE PHILOSOPHY OF WHIST.

=
BY c. w. THOMPSON.
The road Of life is but game,
Where some, a thirst for power and fame,
And some for pleasure feel
But every player does not win,
Although he fairly may begin,
And make proper deal.
Some men assume the part Of trade,
Some turn the soil with active spade,
While some to wealth incline,
And making into earth their way,
Bring up before the light Of day,
The diamond Of the mine.
In clubs some take an active part,
While some the dictates Of the heart
With eager zeal pursue;
And, given to wine, their ruin prove
Or trusting else in faithless love,
Their disappointment rue.
All have their different parts assigned,
And ranks throughout the world we find,
Mid people red and black,
: Each on the one below him leans
Some rise aloft to Kings and Queens,
Some sink to humble Jack.
But whether stationed high or low,
He who his honest heart can know,
Free from reproying thumps,
Fen though he own nor house, nor lands,
That man in native glory stands,
The very ace of trumps
Some men will shuttle through the day,
Unmindful how their partners play,
Unmoyed they seem to stand,
And throw their cards with most bold
And tranquil face, although they hold
A miserable hand.
The daring spirits take the lead,
While those that in the game succeed,
Seem bound to follow suit,
Such play the very duce at last,
Their fortune, character they blast,
And reap the bitter fruit.
How oft, alas it is the fate
Of jarring comrades, wise too late,
To play luckless club,
And sadly finding out, at last,
The time for meditation past,
A heart had gained the rub.
By honour some their fortunes win,
And some by trick, nor deem it sin
To profit as they may
But time will oft the wretch expose
To merited contempt, who chose
Dishonourable play
IT'S only he, who void of guile,
Knows that he has right to smile,
And tells his heart the same
IT'S only he when fate shall close
His pack of chequered joys and woes,
Has fairly won the game.

An aged correspondent informs us, that
about the year 1856, he was told by Mr..
Van Alstine, of Maiden Lane, who was at
that time between so and 80, that Govern
ours Island was formerly called Nutting
Island, on which the citizens used to col
lect hazel and other nuts, for their win
ter's supply and at that time it was a
part of Long Island, separated only by a
small creek, which was crossed upon a
Hog so fixed as to be used at high or low
water. The place where Buttermilk
Channel now is, was marsh or swamp,
when Mr.. Van Alstine was young man.
As late as 1856, says our correspondent,
it was thought unsafe to pass through But
termilk Channel with small sail-boats, on
account of the numerous rocks. Now,
even ships of war may go through it with
safety. The filling in on the south side
of the city has so contracted the channel
on the north side of Governour's Island,
that Buttermilk Channel has naturally
been deepened, and has become navigable
for all kinds of vessels.
In 1856, market-house was built near
Inc PieScht CoIHcI u carr anu DIOdu
Streets.r The city had then 100 houses
and 1000 inhabitants, including the garri-
son.
In 1857, Staten Island gsas sold by the
Indians to the Dutch, for 10 shirts, 90
pair of stockings, 10 guns, 80 bars lead,
80 pounds powder, IL coats, 2 pieces
duffil, 80 kettles, so hatchets, 25 hoes,
and a number of knives and avis. Two
years after, the Indians complained that
the terms of the sale had not been COM
piled with, and the Dutch were obliged to
add sssero tr;nlsetc,sr tho leland uas

SOUND REASOss FOR NOT BEING AN

Frst because the Adams men quote scripture against
General Jackson, aud when they informed that the
quotations do not apply:two or three of them will at
tempt conrm it by saying by Gcd i is 50 and thea
make osh pass two three class leaders will step
up and agrse with the gentlemen who utter ttem-No"
as an Old seventy sixer.I cannot agree to this mode
Second because they employ wicked, swearing, lying
unpced and eescal men 10 write, ard sermonze for
hem ara nst Andrew Jackson. And all these fegious
men (as had like 10 have called them), but viii say
these professors Of religion, will sanction whatever they
say, right or wrong.
This as Wesleyan Methodist cannot do, and therefore
abandon their party.
