AvlYAGE ON A FLAT BoAT.--A series Of
adventures Of man by the name Of James
Clark, came to our knowledge the other day,
which for the marvellous, would not compare
y. with the wanderings Of Sinbad the Sailor;
About four years ago Clark started on a
"a. boat with his wife and four children, from
The town Of Erie, situated on the lake OF that
name, and, by the route Of the Ohio and Erie
canal reached the Ohio river. Descending
he Ohio and Mississippi making briet stay
Nour landing on his way. he reached Bayou
laieurche in louisiana. Leaving the Bayou
BY the south west pass, about twelve miles IN
20 the Gulf. A change of wind and high
tide drove his fat boat oack again, and stran-
lied her on a sand bar near Shanatique. Here
I've was detained three months, four or five
hundred yards from the water, during which
p'riod. he killed a large number Of wild hogs,
AID sailed pork enough to supply his family
hr two years afterwards. He also erected for
his own accommodation and that oftraveners,
quite a respectable dwelling from the Drift
week wood, thrown by the waves upon The
bNs. A high tide at length ensued, and the
NJ boat was ''once more upon the waters. =
Hosting his sail he launched forth, and reach
SVlihout adventure, the Sabine pass. Cros-
snj Sabine bay,-about thirty miles in width
heealered the mouth Of the 10 Matches, and
hem'e assembled to The town Of Beaumont IN
Texas. Here he erected house for tavern,
making use oiIhis fat boat for meterlal, as

A PICTURE


The farmer sat in his easy char
Smoking his pipe of clay,
While his old wife, with busy care;
Was clearing the dinner away.
A sweet little girl, with fine blue eyes,
On her grand pas knees was catching flies.
The cid man placed his hand on her head.
With tear on his wrinkled face.
Her hought how often her mother dead
Had satin tha same place.
Hs the tear stole down from his half shut eve,
Don't smoke said the child, how it makes
youcry!'
The house dog stretched out on the floor,
Where the sun, aftts noon, used TO steal,
The busy old wife, by the open door,
Was turning the spinning wheel
And the old brass clock on the niantletfee,
Had plodded along to almost three.
Still the farmer sat id ms easy chair,
While close 70 his ileaving breasts
The moistened brow and head SO fair, >
Ofhis sweet grand child was pressed.
His head, bent down, Oh her soft hair law
Fast asleep were they botli on that summer
day.
