The following lines, written on the deatl
ola favorite dog, belonging to friend o
ours, by JAMRs MACE Esq. of New York
may not be unacceptable to our readers.
ON THE DEATH OF MY DOG BOZ.
Since nothing dies but something mourns!
Poor Boz! | well may mourn for thee;
Not mine the stole pride that scorns
Affections tear of sympathy.
And whilo upon the turf tread,
With which thy mangled relics blend,
l feel as if it might be SAID,
"Here sleeps my best and truest friend!'
For when on all thy love and truth,
Docty and zeal, dwell
cannot help but ask in sooth,
What human heart has loved SO well
And can it be!-but yesterday
A thing of life in every limb,
Now scudding Ger the fields in play,
Now dashing in the waves to swim;
Or crouching at thy masters feet,
With look Of grave intelligence,
His every glance and word to meet
With fond tho silent eloquence;
Or rising in thy honest pride,
With gnashing teeth and eyes of flame,
To battle at thy masters side,
Ii near doubtful stranger came.
And can it be that thou art dead!
1t warns me | must life resign,-
Oh, may as feryent tears be shed
Upon my grave as fall on hiHe!
Since all are doomed to yield their breath,
The thought is with some comfort crowned
Twas thine to meet the sudden death,
That mighty Cesar chose and found.
For me-let fate come when il will,
lbreathe the fervcnt prayer on high,
That death may find thy master still
As well prepared as thou to die
"Cgsar being asked what death he thought
most desirable. he replied, "a sudden death, II
and his death was sudden.

Mn. WELD, editor of the New York Dis
patch, tells story in as rich and quaint style
as any lord of the quill we wot of--for ex-
ample
Widower Smiths wagon stopped one
morning before widower Jones' door, and
he gave the usual country signal, that he
wanted somebody in the house, by dropping
the reins, and sitting double, with his ell
bows on his knees. Out tripped the widow,
| lively as cricket, with tremendous black
ribbon on her snow white cap. Good morn
ing was soon said on both sides, and the
widow waited for what was further to be
said.
"Well, Ma'am Jones, perhaps you don't
want to sell one of your cows, no how, for
nolhing, any way, do your
dwell, there, Mr.. Smith, you couldn't
have spoke my mind better. A POOR Iona
woman, like me, does not know what to do
with so many creatures, and should be
glad to trade if we can fix it."
So they adjourned to the meadow Farmer
Smith looked at Roan--then at the widow
at Brindle--then at the widow--at the
Downing cow--then at the widow again
and go through the whole forty. The same
call made for every day for week, but far
mer Smith could not decide which COW he
wanted. At length, on Saturday, when
widow Jones was in hurry to get through
her baking for Sunday--and had ever SO
much" to do in the house, as all farmers
wives and widows have IN Saturday, she
was little impatient. Farmer Smith was
as irresolute as ever.
"That ere short horned Durham is not
bad looking beast; but don't know"--an-
other look at the widow.
"The Downing COW knew before the late
Mr.. Jones bought her." Here he sighed at
the allusion of the late Mr.. Jones, she sigh
ed, and both looked at each other. 1t was
q highly interesting moment,
"Old Roam is faithful old nich, and SO
is Brindle--but have known BETTER" Al
long stare succeeded this speech--the pause
was getting awkward, and at last Mrs.
Jones broke out
"Lord! Mr.. Smith, If I'm the COW you
want, do say so"
The intentions Of the widower Smith
and the widow Jones were published the
next day, as is the law and custom in Mas
sachusetts: and as soon as they were ''out.
published" they were married.

ment OF the state, in point of wealth and bu-
sness, as well as population, and we are
happy to find that there is one editor of a
metropolitan paper who has eyes to dis
cern and liberality to acknowledge those
things to which others are either wlfully
blind or carelessly ignorant.
The settlement of this portion of the state
is going rapidly on, in spite of the crowds
that are rushing towards that temporary
ePDorado, Iowa. The back parts of Lucas
and Wood counties are fast filling up with
hardy band Of pioneers from Pennsylva-
mia, New Jersey and the interior of OHIO,
and Williams and Henry counties are by no
means behindhand in larger accessions 10
their population. We should like to see, it
is true, a large proportion of New England
ers mingled with the descendants of our
German ancestors, but if the land is only
filled and the forests cut down, and mead
ows and orchards and fruitful fields taking
their places we will not complain, though
the song of father-land is sung and the
barbarous patois of Switzerland and Germa-
ny is spoken by those who do it.
THE SPIRIT OF EMIanATroN.--"The FAR
WEST" is beginning to attract numerous
Emigrants from the far East, of late-and
some portions of Ohio are not far behind in
this particular. Many of our citizens seem
to partnke largely of this moving mania,
and are actually pulling up stakes, with a
determination to travel towards "the set
ting sum-" The Territory of Iowa seems,
Just now, to be foremost in its attractions,
and is drawing largely upon the northern
and eastern states for settlement. What,
however, is not a little singular in this
movement, is the striking fact, that these
very emigrants, most of them at least, ira
