He has fallen in love with fat, squint-

The flowers of fond friendship, Pve sto-

And wove me garland Of love:
And they'll bloom on forever, when every
fair feature

TOBACCO.
Geo. ID. Prentice
Tobacco is an Indian weed,
1t was the devil sowed the seed.


My hearers-to such of you as are in
the habit Of chewing, allow me to ad-
dress myself butt-eHd foremost. If you
don't leave off the filthy practice, shall
put you down upon my catalogue as un-
clean beasts,to be Stunned and avoided by
all decent society. 1t is practice produce
tive fno good whatever, and fraught with
more evils than a scavenger's horse can
carry. ltrenders your carcas as loathsome
and disgusting as those Of buzzards. 1t
stains your dickeys, as well as your NOR
al characters, blackens both your teeth
and your souls, causes an odoriferous
stencil to flow continually from your
mouth and not only in(uses deadly
poison in your blood. but leads you to an
inclination for occasional dissipation
from that to semi-occasional intoxcation.
Mans mouth, my friends, was never
made for a tobacco-boX; and | wonder
how any one can have the courage to
chew that which he dare swallow. I'd
like to see man stuff some of the trash
into his abdominal pantry. If he did'n,
feel uncomfortable about the Wristbands
soon after, it would be because sickness
was afraid to come near him.
Shutting, my friends, is nearly if moi
quite as bad chewing; and grieve to
observe that females as we'll as males are
addicted to it. When see woman who
speaks as though her nasel organ was
made of bellmetal-who says 'pud'n' fol
pudding-whose skin is as yellow as the
latter end Of autumn know she takes
snuff in quantities to make an Egyptian
mummy sneeze in its sarcophagus; and
also know that her brains are equally as
dirty as the handkerchief she uses, ant
that's enough to throw pair of tongs in
to commissions. Many pretend that they
take snuff to clear their heads. 1t clears
their heads in time, of all sparkling, bril-,
liant, and original ideas, but leaves in
stead, confused chaos of unfinished
thoughts, wrecks of fancy, and any num-
Der of unnamed chimeras. That is the
only way in which it clears their heads
my friends. The less dust you admit in
to your noses, the clearer your heads
will be, the better your health, and the
more transparent your morals.

THE DYING YEAR.

Having spent week with particular friend
in the country, out f. Baltimore street, for the
benefit of my health, which had been injured by
intense application to study, have had an OPP
portunity of witnessing the deathbed of the dying
year Dcsolation and death have humbed to
the dust the green glory of the woodland, and
the trees now look like mothers who are mourn
ing over the tombs of their children. The flow
crs of the field have faded like the blossoms of
hope that have withcred in the heart, and the
mournful tones of the night blast sound like the
requiem of departed days of bliss With what
eloquence does the tongue of time speak to the
human heart! How faught with sublimity, how
fill of moral g. ander the subject of the dying
year. | see scattered around me the melancholy
memorials of the bright past and the sad memen-
tos of my own mortality. Like the blushing
flowers of June shall pass away the beautiful be-
ings of the earth, and in the common grave OF
Nature shall lie the undistinguishablc wrecks of
human renown and human ambition. ] am my
self but bubble glittering for a moment, and
then destined to disappear on the mighty tide of
1ime lmourn over the memory of other years.
Give me the golden harp once more,
And let me touch its strings sublime;
1moum departed years of yore,
And weep upon the tomb of time;
For oh! affections flowers are dead,
The promised joys of youth have pined
My hopes alas! have long since fled,
They were but metcors of the mind.
Gone are the dreams of boyhood's years,
hJ,,f do hn,o E,,lnl tl,a,.
Baptized in many tide of tears,
They fell in an untmey tomb
I've seen them, one by one depart,
Like birds that seek Southern sky;
I've wept, and with breaking heart,
To think that they go soon should die!
helips that loved me, ere their blight,
Their roses have too early shed;
And eyes, that beam'd with love and light,
Alas! are long since dim and dead;
The heart that beat for me alone,
Shall beat in Joy for me no more;
The angel of the earth isgone,
And loves Elusive dream is DER!
Oh! take the harp, cannot bear
To listen to its mournful lays
Upon my brow now broods despair,
That darkness all my manhood's days;
lam not what once have been,
j am but what the fates would make;
The child of sorrow and Of sin,
Oh! take the harp, my heart will break!

FLIB ON LOVE AND FRIENDsHIP.-There
are two classes of wrongs in the world
that admit of no apology. The lover
who is faithless to his mistress for the
sake Of new object of attraction, com
mits one of these wrongs; the friend who
breaks the friendship Of years by gratui-
tous insult, is guilty Of the other. The
act of infdelity towards the woman leaves
her with but one desire-reyenge for the
CALLING and degrading comparison in which
she is placed with another; the insulted
friend recollects his former friendship but
to revenge the wrong by which it was
broken.
