HE WEATHER. This certainly is an
interesting subject. for it comes home to
mems business and bosoms at almost eve.
~ moment. For several weeks past the
weather has been singularly mild !; and
the farmers have been busily engaged in
pioughlng' &c. and anticipating the work
OF spring. The season thus far seems in
mercy sent to the poor and distressed
who this year, owing to the general pros.

Mr.. Evans. This gentleman, whom
we noticed few weeks since, as being
engaged in delivering a course of ScientJ-
lick lectures in this town, has completed
his course, and, we understand. intends
lecturing in Leominster. We are unwll-
ling to part with this gentleman without
saying that he has given very general sat
isfaction with us for fifteen evenings, to
an audience exceeding one hundred and
fifty of our good citizens. MIR. E. has an
interesting manner he is very clear IN
his expressions and explanations, and, with
the aid Of numerous drawings for illustra-
tons. he fixes the attention, and imparts
large amount of information. 1t tells well
for the taste of our citizens that they ex-
tended so liberal patronage to Mr.. E.
especially as they with others have hereto
fore suffered somewhat from charlatans in
science. The whole effect of Mr.. Els
lecturing, moral as well as scienti6ck, is
decidedly useful and important. We hope
that he will meet with equal success in
the neighboring towns, and cheerfully give
our feeble recommendation in his behalf.

Who first throughout the valley will
Demand tribute from our quill ?
70 you've fair unmarried few,
Our muse does justly turn-to you!
What can we say your praise to sing,
Half good enough or rssishing?
Now shall we be quite sentimental,
Or deal in praises complimental?
First touch Dan Cupid and his dart,
/ Or mourn tickle, broken heart.
Then oh! our girls immaculate
Who all your joys may calculate
We all of us look on to We,
AS patterns of economy.
Were ye not up by rise of sun,
When would our household work be done
Be your pride to rule the kitchen
Cook the dinner, put the stitch in,
Smile on washing days-do all
Which means-be economical
We wish you all the dearest thing,
Your thoughts can think, in bordering;
Pleasure and happiness, good beaus-
The last we may not wish, as those
Are all expectative. of course,
/ In which the others have their source.
That ye may lead most pleasant lives,
Most happy and obedient wives.
Ye bachelors a word to you
Last, not least, a jovial few.
On marriage have we bent your eye?-
( The years fill up the century,
And now you count them twenty-nine
One more-time toes the certain line
That turns young bachelors to.old,
And makes love chill and very cold.
Then spring lest by another year
Old Time may pull you by the ear,
Be off with you, not tarrying,
And give you up, past marrying.
We wish you all--the pun is stale
A lawyers richest fee-fee-male.
Our marriages are few-yet ye
Still grope in single misery.
Say not how sweet it is to climb
Life's steep, unaided, in your prime
How sweet to sit upon your stone,
And bite your morsel all alone.
IT'S sweeter far to taste the cup,
With one close by to hold it up,
To make the sour, delicious honey,
Mend your clothes and save your money.
Oh! make your single life to taper
And clap your marriage in the paper
So sally out-and in your sally,
Select wife to grace our valley.
