Aged Persons. How few, compara-
lively speaking, live ont the the whole
number ofyears allotted as the age ofman
=" three score years and ten." Who
can a,unt them in order, and say, thus
far have Ibreasted the storm, withstood
the ills Of life, and now ana standing a
midst my fellow creatures,as an ancient
land mark )" which as yet, hath not been
overturned. When we look about and
behold here and there an individual, bow
cd down beneath the weight Of years
the head bearing the white locks Of ven-
cradle old age-the faultering voice
which has become almost indistinct be-
speaks, that the thread Of life hath been
heightened, and that ere long the tender
cord will be severed /; the tottering frame
almost worn down, yet fingers on the
verge, shortlyto pass the bounds Of time,
for it is written, the old must die. -
Behold the aged individual in all his de-
crcpitude ,and hearken to his admonitions,
/" I have participated in all the an,use-
ments which youthful fancy could invent
and found that their power OF amuseing
passeth away. Ihave pursued the busy
path in search Of wealth and fame, and
found it all vexntion, vexation." Where
arc those who were his former companions
the question returns, where are they :
Do theis voices answer to the call! All,
no they have finished their course, and
gone the way Of all flesh. And when he
looks about'him, he is led to exclaim--
{" vanity ofvanities all is vanity" The
aged should receive our attentions their
last years should be made pleasant, from a
consciousness that, instead of being a bur-
den it is our delight to comfort and at
tend to them.

On lifting up his eyes to discover the

A NEw-YoRK NEoR0 AND KEN
rUoKIAN. Not long since gentleman
from Kentucky was standing at the door
of one Of our hotels, whence he was a.
bout starting for the steamboat. Wish.
ing for some one to carry his baggage;
and seeing a spruce looking negro pass
ing along the street, he called out to him
=" Here, you Mig, take ny trunk and
carry it down to the boat"
The negro stopped and raising his
quizzing glass 10 his eye, stared at the
Kentuckian witha mixture of indignn-
ton and astonishinent. Having scanned
him sufficiently with his glass he gave his
hat an independent twist to one side,
pulled up his dicky about his ears, drew
himself up to his fullest height, and thus
Ireplied--ss Did YOU dress that language
to me, sirfo
Yes, you black rascal want you
to take my trunk TO the steamboat"
Indeed guess you came from the
slave holdin states, didn't you, if may
take the liberty to axi''
Say you black dog--and what If I
ldidl You take too much liberty, l eau
tell you"
Why was sure you must have come
from the slave states, otherwise you
wouldn't treat a gentleman in this SUPER
lsitLy manner, just because his skin isn't
Of the same colour Of your own.
" Shut up your thick lips, or I'll stick
my fists down your throat"
"We don't have any gag laws in this
state"
/ Well, yuu ought to have, to stop the
mouths Of such saucy black rascals as
you are. wish | had you in Kentucky
Once."
al spose you'd g0uge me then. But
thank heaven, Pm not in Kentucky. and
not a slave. neither. And what's more;
undertake to tell you, Mr., impotence,
that there's no guuging nor gagging in
this free state, and une man is as much
inspected as another, If he behaves as
well, although he is a black man, or N
Mig, as you call him. Behaviour makes
the man, sir. For my part, should be
ashamed TO show my face 'mong other
!, geutIemen, II dressed man in the
SuperSiily manner you did me"
Having finished his speech, the dark
coloured beau again raised his quizzing
: glass to his eye, and giving his antago-
: mist look Of ineIlable distlain, walked
on while tine Kentuckian, almost doubt
ling his senses, wondered what sort Of
Republican principle that could be which
gives a black man as much liberty as
white one.

With lustre ofthy azure eye
No Peri from the plains above,
Thy rich delicious lip OF love
May rival, or compare with thine,
For thou indeed art all divine.
Thy clust'ring curls that softly Gov
Upon thy bosom's purest snow,
The rich ripe crimson of thy cheek,
The smile thy lovely mouth SO meek
Discioses-all have charms for me,
Which fill the soul with ecstscy.
The wilderness Of thy beautiful brow
The alabaster may, I vow
And marble smoothness, far surpass.
