BY THE HON. MNss NohAOF'
Come Patrick, clear up the storms on your brow
you were kind to me once, will you frown on NE
sb. the storm settle here whenfrom Heaven it de-
parts;
And the cold from without find its way to our hearts
No. Patrick no. surely the wintriest weather
Is easily bonneville we bear it together!
Though the rains dropping through from the roof TO
the floor.
And the wind whistles free where there once was a
door;
Can the rain, or the snow or the storm wash away
All the warm vows we made in loves early dayl
No, Patrick, no. surely The dark stormy weather
Is easily born--so we bear it together
When you stole out to me, when labor was done,
And the day that was closing, to seemed begun
Did care if the sunset bright on the flowers,
Or five crept out amid darkness and showersi
No, Patrick, we talked while we braved the wild
weather
OF all we could bear-ifwe bore it together
Soon, soon, will these dark dreary days be gone by
And our hearsts be lit up with beam from the sky
Oh ! let not our spirits, embittered with pain,
BE dead to the sunshine that comes to us then;
Heart in heart-hand IN hand-let us welcome the
weather.
And, sunshine or Storm W. will bear it together

the great men who projected and carried i
through, which, were they not So well at

their truth, but the following striking coin.
cndence is one of which we do not recol.
ect ever before having seen a notice.
Washington, born February %, 1882
inaugurated 1889; term of service expired
in the Goth year of his age.
John Adams, born October 10Th, 1886

Goth year of his age.
Monroe, born April 2, 1859, inauguruted
1919, term Of service expired in tho 66th
year of his age,
The above is n list of five of the Presi-
dents of the, United States (all men of the

in the Goth year of their ages. J. q. Ad-

A sorry Anecdote.-IIow common it i,
to express our regret at the accidental mis-
fortunes of our neighbors but how often
does u selfish spirit predominant and "feeze
the genial current of the soul" A poor
carter's horse fell into the dock, and was
drowncd-a great number of expressions of
pity were heard among the crowd, that had
been drawn by accident to the spot-one
was sorry for the poor man-another was
rery soTy--ln fact, there was general ex-
preston of sOrrOv. A Frenchman among
the rest pulling OF his ehopeou, put IA bank
note into it, saying to the bystanders, 81
sorry dc poor man five doiiue, now how
much do you sorry HIM" This was ex-
pressing sorrow to some purpose-and it is
Sorrowful to add, that so little connection
lad the heart with the tongue, that not one
sous was added To the liberal donation of
he truly benevolent Frenchman.

LOlTERING,

Philosophers seldom deem the minor
characteristics of their kind worthy Of
discussion. Otherwise, methinks they
would have anal ysizod feeling Of which
not a few are conscious; mean the tOiter-
ing propensity. Even the poets, who are
vastly more circumspecL IN noting the
quaint things Of lie, have scarcely a''u
ded 10 this. Neither Crab6e, iDde'dtiya-
BILE as he was in taking cognisance o! our
nature, nor Wol dsworlh bravely as he has
persevered in shelving up the more siM'
ole and native workings Of the heart, have
done Justice 10 the inherent disposition
to Ioiter which belongs to some men as
truly as their gait or their noses. Let no
one suggest that the topic would have
been appropriate 10 Thomson's "CaslIe
of Incidence" Your legitimate lolterers
are the busiest men alive. Depend upon
il, their ar of leisure, though It may IndI
cate the absence oil certain domestic in
spirers of activity, proves anything rath
er than the absence Of thought. why
Addison was wont TO loIter in club rooms
Irving in old English castles, and Chas
Lamb at bookslaIIs. The Spectator
Sketch Book, and Ella, prove that the!
did not loiler in vain. Taste and clrcun
stances combine TO influence our habit

upon by an invisible fluid, bursting
into spontaneous motion, rolling
against each other. cracking, opening,
and disclosing each an organized and
aLimaling being. AS soon as the
chickens are out of the she'll, they are
carefully removed into the passage,
which is divided into numerous com
parlmeOls by small ridges Of clay;
from whence, when few days older,
they are drafted off into cooler quar-
ters. The passage, at the tine Of our
visit was filed with chickens, Of
which there must have been many
thousands, not more than one day Old
ehirping, moving about, aud nesting
against each other. Stones placed al
intervals, like stepping stones in a
brook, enabled US 10 traverse the sew
eral compartments. A number Of low
sublerranean cells, in which an equal
temperature is maintained by fires oi
dung, communicate a sufficient heat tC
the Matching rooms by aperlures in The
floor. Few persons can endure, toI

these ovens. We were glad 10 make

the secret, as it is termed, is knowr
only To the inhabitants ofs few village

selves over the country in autumn
undertake the management of sucl
eggs as are entrusted 10 their care
6ul there is no secret in ths matter
and The eggs are thus hatched by lh
inhabitants Of all parts Of Egypt. II
the oven we examined there were a
least twenty cells; each perhaps, con
tanning Eve thousand eggs; SO that
should they all take, one hundred
thousand chickens would be produced
iu lwenIy.one days; or one million
seven hundred thousand per annum

FertiIizing and suspicious as is the en-
ergetic play of all the faculties, there is
a deep wisdom in allowing the mind TO
lie falIow. Like the soil thus exposed to
the grateful agencies Of nature and ITS
own selfevolved energy, its productive

1t is, after all, by drIblets that good

this, es in many other respects, there is
a coincidence between the influences ol
art and literature. To one whose love
oc the beautiful is passionate and keen,
there is some thing oppressive in The as

artists sanctum proves delightful resort
and fine parour picture, accidentally
fallen in with, is productive of UnaIloyed
delight. A single congenial volume re-
presents 10 the imaginative mind the idea
of literature; and a sketch or statue is an
eloquent SYMBOL Of art. There is phi

facts. The truth is, the feelings Of man
