OF Grease, whether that article was entitled to
enter Tree OF duty, or was liable to pay specific
rate, per pound, as an enumerated article of the
Tariff, the following trile found its way into the
treasury Department. 1t shows that if the
honorable East India Company had its Charles
Lamb chained TO desk, we too have, among
those ''sitting at the receipt of cus,oms, kindred
spirits whose genius will not be imprisoned:
DUTY ON GREASE.

And Marathon looks on the sea
And musing there an hour alone,

MY MOTHERS BIBLE.

BY GEORGE p. NORRIS.
This book is all that's left me now.-
Tears will unbidden start
With faltering lip and throbbing brow,
press it to my heart.
For many generations past,
Here is our family tree;
My mothers hand this Bible clasp'J-
She, dying, gave to me.
All! we'll do remember those
Whose names those records bear;
Who round the hearth-stone used to close,
After the evening prayer,
And speak Of what these pages said,
In tones my heart would thrill!
Though they are with the silent dead,
Here rethey living still!
My father read this holy book
10 brothers, sisters dear
How calm was my poor mothers look,
Who leaned Gods word to hear
Her angel face-I see it yet!
What thronging memories come!
Again that little group is met
Within the halls OF home!
Thou truest friend man ever knew,
Thy constahcy I've tried
When all were false found thee true,
My counsellor and guide.
The mines of earth no treasures give
That could this volume buy!
In teaching mo the way to live,
1t taught me how to die.
