Frozen Quichsiloer. --I here has never, to our knowledge, been so great degree of cold registered in any part of the United States, as that on Sunday last at New Lebanon. in this state. Al 5 o'clock on that morning, the mercury had sunk to 39 de- grees below zero, and became coagealed and smmopabie. The lowest point on nrecords was that made by Professor Cleaveland, of Bowdon College, at Brunswick, (Me. } some quarter of a century ago. He sus- pended several glasses from the bough of a free, in the most exposed situation to the weather, and sat up all night to watch the fluctuations of the fluid.

THE FOOLS PENCE,
OR, TRANsMUTATiON.

Though fermentation is long word, and
TO some readers may seem u hard wore, y
have chosen it because it exactly expresses
my meaning; and when the meaning Of the
word is given in few words of good, old
common English, it will soon appear to have
little or no difficulty about it. Transmutation
means the change Of thing into another ma
ture or substance. If silver could be con-
verted, or turned into gold, or iron into cop
per, the change would be called, as the fa-
nous Bacon has said, "for distinctions sake,
Iransmutdtion."
The laboring man gives his honest, hard
labor, in exchange for his employers money.
This is an equitable, or fair exchange, in
which each receives benefit. Now these
earnings Of the laboring man are his own
that is agreed upon. The next considera-
ton is,--what is to be done with these earn
ings? Let US suppose man to earn ten
twelve-or thirteen shillings a week, and to
have wife and three children. lie brings
his money to his wife, who lays it up to the
best advantage, adding to 1t any little sum
scraped up by herself and her children during
the week. With this sum- nay, with small
Ter sum, If the wife is good manager, want
has been kept from the door. But suppose
twelve shillings and ten pence of the weeks
wages are made to undergo the process Of
transmutation, and the remaining two pence
is brought to his wife, to be the sole support
Of the family; Il have known such sum to
be brought home by husband, who earned
thirteen shilings n week;) suppose such a
sum TO be brought home as the amount Of the
weeks earnings. Upon whom, ask, should
the blame be laid? upon those who manage
public affairs,-or upon the father Of the fam
iy2
And now for few words moro about trans
mutation. Have you ever seen London
gin shop? There is, perhaps, no statelicr
shop in the magnificent chief city Of Eng.
land. No expense seems to be spared in the
building and furnishing gin shop.
Not many years ago, a gin shop was o
mean looking, and by no means a spacious
place, with a few bottles not bigger than O
doctors largest walls, in dusty window
However poor many Of the working classes
may be, it seems to be their pleasure to
squandcr their little remaining money upon a
number OF these places, as if they were de-
termincd that the persons whom they employ
10 sell them poison, should dwell in the midst
Of ofluxury and splendor. | do not mean to
say that we have q right TO throw all the
blame upon the master or the mistress OF O
gin shop. For my part, ] should not like tc
keep one, and be obliged to get rich upor
the money of the poor infatuated creatures
who will ruin both body and soul IN gin drink
ing; but at the same time, the master of th,
pin shop may say, IL don't force the people
TO drink, and taey will have gin. and If J dc
not sell il to them, somebody else will" The
story of "The Fools Pence" which follows
is worth attending 10.

TO MY WIFE,

More than t,centy years after Marriage.

When health, and hope, and smiles were on thy
brow;
loved thee dearly then, but better now;
For ,ime ihs, dims thine eye, hath shown thy
truth
Moro excellen,ly fair Did i'll betido,
Care wiring my soul, or weakness waste my frame,
In every change found thee still the same,-
A gentle friend, and comforter, and guide.
And now from home and thee so far apart,
With not a voice to soolhe,-a smile TO cheer,-

And press thine image closer to my heart;
Asking Of Heaven, how | shall find amends
For faith for love like thine, thou best Of wives

STEAM WAITER.-A friend was the other
evening relating TO Us Il dream wherein he
fancied himself III Il country where every
thing was done by steam. lie was dining at
hotel. a waiter walked into the room and
deposited his dinner and newspaper lie
took up the latter, and was so busy perusing
it that he failed 10 observe n notice which
had been left that the waiter would call again
in thirty minutes, and had scarce commenc-
ed upon his beef steak when the door open
ed, and the same man appeared:-he walked
up to the table, and laid his hand upon the
dish; "not done," muttered my friend through
his beef steak; but the hand did not relax its
hold. 81 tell you ! ain not Gonc," said the
eater, and as he spoke he looked up into his
attendants eye, shut III it was no life" Cold,
calm, and statute-lke was the figure, and my
friend dropped his knife in horror. "Who
and what are you!" he family whispered; the
being still uttered no sound; his hand, which
had been laid upon the dish. rose,-and the
unfortunate mortal beheld his dinner passing
from before him. lie cried, he supplcaed,
he threatened, he promised--thn attendant
was deaf and turned upon his heel. The hun
cry man seized his arm, but horror on horror.
he only burnt his fingers; he then seized the
tail of his coat and hung on mantuly;-he
heard within the body low muttering,-and d
he thought the creature was about to speak,
when of sudden, a little door or safety valve
in the back part of the figure flew open, and
instead ofwords my friend was sauted with
rush of hot vapor. He now perceived that
! it was steam waiter and seized the arm a.
gain to bring him round towards the table
thinking thereby to rescue his steak, he was
Frustrated by blow that came from whence
he knew not-he looked up, he was on his
back, in his own bed; the moon was calmly
shining into the window, and by her light he
perceived that his wfe,-good woman-was
tucking herself in; and presently heard her
muttcr that the next time he pulled of the
blankets in that style, she'd give worse slap
yet. He thought he saw thrHlgh his dream
and said as he told us the story, something
about high-prcssure wives.

Bright spots where we should love to stay;
But time plies swift his flying oar.
And OH we speed-away, away.
Should chilling winds and rain come on,
Wen raise our awning 'gainst the shower
Sit closer till the storm is gone,
And smiling wait SUMMER hour.
And if that SUMMER hour should shine,
Wen know its brightness cannot stay,
And happy while it's thine and mine,
Complain not when it fades away.
Thus reach we both, at last, that fall,
Down which ife's currents all must GO

To sink the void below:
Nor e'en that hour shall want its charms,
Ifside by side still fond we keep,

Of tho sweet little girl that bound them.

And those that last the longest
And the bud, that boasts the falrest birth,
Shall cling to the stem that's strongest.
I've run about the garden walks.
Aud search'd among the dew, sir -
These fragrant flowers, these tender stalks,
I've pluck'd them all for you, sir.
So here's your bunch Of buds and flowers.
And here's the ribbon round them;
And here, to cheer your sadden'd hours,
Is the sweet little girl that bound them.
