Ills youth was innocent his riper age,
Marked with some act ofgoodness every day;
And watched by eyes that loved him, calm & sage,
Faded his last declining years away.
Cheerful he gave his being up, and went
To share the holy rest that waits life well spent.
That life was happy ;every day he gave
Thanks for the fair existence that was his
For sick fancy made him not her slave,
To mock him with her phantom miseres
No chronic tortures racked his aged limb,
For luxury and sloth had nourished none for him.
And I am glad that he has lived thus long, Z.
And glad that he has gone to his reward
Nor deem that kindly nature did him wrong,
Softly to disengage the vital cord,
When his weak hand grew palsied and his eye
Dark with the mists of age, it was his time to die.

POETRY.
SCENES OF INFANCY.

Sweet scenes Of youth, to faithful memory dear,
Still fondly cherish'd d with the sacred tear,
When, In the soiiened light of summer skies,
Full on my soul life's first Illusions rise
Sweet scenes Of youthful bliss, unknown to pain
! come, to trace your soothing haunts again,
To mark each grace that pleas d my STRIPPING prime
BY absence hallow'd and endear'd by time
To lose amid your winding dells the past
All! must think this ling ring look the last
Ye lovely wales, that met my earliest view
How of ye snil'd, when Natures charms were
new
Green was her vesture, glowing, fresh and warm,
And every op'ning grace had power to charm
While as each scene in living lustre rose,
Each young emotion wak'd from soft repose.
As every prospect opens on my view,
I seem to live departed years anew
When in these wilds jocund, sporive child,
Each flower self-sown my needless hours bcguil'd;
The wubret leaf, that by the pathway grew,
The wild-brie rose, of pale and blushful hue,
The thiste's rolling wheel, Of silken down,
The blue-bell, or the daisy's pearly crown,
Inc gauuy Duucrhy, iii Wahioh round,
That like living pea-Aower skimmd the ground
Again view the cairn, and moss-gray stone,
Where Oft at eve wont TO muse alone,
And vex with curious toll mine infant eye,
To count the gems that stud the nightly sky
Or think as playful fancy wander'd far,
How sweet il were to dance from star to star
Again view each rude romantic glade,
Where once with tiny steps my childhood .tray'd,
TO watch the foam bells of the bubbling brook,
Or mark the motions Of the clamorous rook,
Who saw her nest, close thatch' I'd with ceaseless
toll,
At summer eve become the woodman's spoil.
Sweet scenes conjoin'd with all tina, most en-
dears
The cloudless morning Of my tender years;
With fond regret your haunts wander oer,
And wand'rng feel myselftle child no more
Your forms, your sunny tints, still the same
But sad the tear which lost affections claim.

hill to find instead ofthe forts block house
q mass ofsmoking ruins mingled with the
halfburnt mangled bodies oftheir friends.
The bodies Of several Indians were seen
laying near the spot and upon moving
the one who appeared to be chief, he
slowly opened his eyes and glancing
wildly around upon the whites, said
"Pale faces, ye have brought this up
on yourselves. The Great Spirit has
smiled upon his red children, and given
them subtlety to set fire to the fort, when
the eyes of the young men were turned
towards the east, and the Pequots are
now revenged. Away! away! you en-
bitter my last hours with your false looks,
begone for the wild cat of the forest
has more compassion. Sec you not
yonder burning mass it is the last re-
mains of your friends and of my tribe
The Great Spirit bade them enter and
they are now on their way to the home
of the blessed. Bear me to yonder
tree, and when their flesh has turned to
ashes the Pequot Chieftain will de-
Come to me at the hour when the sun
sinks behind the hills of the west"
The whites placed him as he request
ed, and when the evening shades began
to fall upon the hill and vale, the soul of
the last Pequot had arisen to its Creator.
He was then buried where he died, by
the whites.
The trunk of the aged tree has long
since decayed, but the grave Of the chief
tain is to be seen at this day.

UTILITY OF PRACTICAL SCIENCE.

UTILITY OF PRACTICAL SCIENCE.
Why should that which, in the hands
of the studious is $50 powerful an in
strument, be so useless in the hands of
the active and laborious; We know that
it is not-and it is demonstrable, as a
matter of the plainest inference that he,
who works not as a senseless machine,
but as an intelligent handler aftsman, who
understands the powers he wields, and
the elements and materials he works up
on will have a great advantage in his
knowledge. The artisan, with this quail
fication, will be constantly improving his
tools and the productions of his skill, and
shortening the processes of his labor
The farm will be certain, other things
being equal, to be better cultivated, and
TO be made more productive, by scien-
tiic agriculturalis. He will turn the
stock as well as the soil of his farm to
greater account, with the knowledge that
books Of science will give him. How many
horses have been ruined by ignorance in
the farrier Of the part he operates upon.
The foot of the horse is connected with
the leg by muscles and legiments, which
answer the purpose Of fine elastic
spring, that saves the animal from the
shock, which every step would otherwise
give him. This effect is aided by the
expansion of the hoof, and by the descent,
between the two parts Of it, of soft,
muscular substance, technically called
the frog Now, if the shoe be placed
too far back, or be formed so as to con-
tract the foot, it will interfere with this
admirable provision of nature; and lame
ness will ensue.
In the building ofhouses, again, scien-
tific principles are indispensable, and un-
doubtedly thorough understanding Of
them would enable the carpenter to i'm
prove his plans, and to facilitate the ex-
ecution of his task. But there is one
evil that especially calls for scientific
remedy, and that is the evil Of "smoky
houses" There are principles, if we
are rightly informed, on which every
chimney may be constructed; SO as GER
tainly to draw smoke and any one may
convince himself Of this by the fact, that
Franklin stove is an invariable remedy
for a smoking chimney. And yet, in
many places, ifno generally, more than
half ofthe chimneys are SO built, as to
infict this lasting evil, this century's ca
lamity upon whole household. The fu-
ell, that is expended, either to make a
stronger draught by increasing the fire,
or to heat rooms with half open doors; the
colds. rheumatisms. and various disc ses
induced in this way; the irritation, the
actual i'll temper occasioned by such cir
cumstances, constitute, all together no
small item in the troubles and Affections
of domestic life And all this, because
one class Of our artisans do not under
stand, in this particular, the philosophy
of their business!

THE OLD MANS FUNERAL.

saw an aged man upon his bier,
His hair was thin and white, and on his brow
A record fthe cares of many year -
Cares, that were ended and forgotten now,
And there was sadness round and faces bowed,
And woman's tears fell fast and children walled a
loud.
Then rose another hoary man and sad
In faltering accents, to that weeping train,
Why mourn ye, that our aged friend is dead'
Ye ere not sad to see the gathered grain,
Nor when their mellow fruit the orchards cast,
Nor when the yellow woods shake down the RI
pened mast.
Ye sigh not when the sun his course fulfilled,
His glorious course, rejoicing earth and sky,
In the soft evening, when the winds are stlled,
Sinks where his islands Of refreshment lie,
And leaves the smile of his departure, spread
O'~ the wam-colored heaven and ruddy mountain
head.
Why weep ye then for him, who, having run
The bound Of mans appointed years, at last,
Lies blessings all enjoyed, fe's labours done,
sersnely to his final rest has past
While the sofi memory Of his virtues, yet
Linse like twilight hues, when the bright sun is set

TEViOT.

Sweet Teviot on thy silver tide,
The glaring bale-ires blaze no more
No longer steel-clad warriors ride
Along thy wild and widowed shore (;
Where'er thou wind'st by dale or hill,
All, all is peaceful, all is still,
As if thy waves, since time was born,
Since first they rolled their way to Tweed,
Had only heard the shepherds reed,
Nor started at the bugle horn.
Unlike the tide Of human time,
Which, though it change in ceaselsss flow
Retains each grief, retains each crime,
Its earliest course was doomed to know;
And, darker as it downward bears,
Is stained with past and present tears.
