LIFE : lENSUN ShUlLD BIZ,
BY p. HALLECK.
Forget not-regret not
The Joys that have llet,
Though sweeter and feotcr
Than fresh orders shed
From the jessamine's cup.
Or the bright ehalice hid
From the gaze Of the sun
Meath the violet Id.
Forget not-regret not:
Hope evershould burn
The increase Of love
In her funeral urn.
Shielding glory and light
O'er the gems of the past,
By time on the altar
Of memory cast.
Forget not-regret not:
w ny Shonfd we regret,
While one star remains.
That another has set?
And though all may have faded,
Others brighter by far,
Through the gloom may arise
Than the once worship'd star.
Forget not-regret not:
Life's lesson should be
Like the stars that are hing
Ger the limitless sea,
A guide to our path,
Bright links Of the chain,
To lead us and bind US
To virtue again.

TARIFF ARGUMENT.
High Duties make Low Prices
Low Duties make High
Prices-The more Toll the
Miller takes the more Meal
the Farmer gets-The less
Toll the less Meal he gets.

Senator Evans of Maine made a
speech at the commencement Of the
present Congress, which is we under
stand extensively circulated among the
farmers. Mr.. Evans shows conclusive
ly that the higher the duty the cheaper
the merchant can afford to sell his cal
icoes and cloths, and the losoer the du-
ty the more he IS compelled to ask for
them. We see from an article in the
illinois Register, that the millers have
adopted the logic Of Mr.. Eyars, and
concluded to support the Tariff. We
publish from the Register the follow
ing, which is the most forcible argu-
ment in favor Of the present Wing tar
if that we recollect to have seen any
where.
The MILLER AND HIS WHIG Gus
ToMERs.-Some w eeks since, Mr.. Me-
Council was in Mr.. Douglass Con-
gressional District making Democratic
speeches, where he met staunch Dem
ocratic friend of his, who aecosted him
very Familiarity, and said, friend Mack,
! hear you are going to make Demo
cratic speech here to-day about the
tariff.
Well, says Mr.. NJ, I'll think of it;
have you any objections friend Bob?
Well have, says his friend, l am
afraid you are going to interfere with my
interest with your COMPOUNDED discus
sion ABOUT the tariff, and about high and
low prices.
If that is so, Bob, | am very sorry,
says Mr.. NJ Pray how can that hap
pen?
Well now Mack, I will tell yoas in a
private way like, but don't want you
to be blabbing it all around the coun-
try, and make a blowing horn of your
self about it, and get me into deal Of
scrape, perhaps into the newspapers
besides.
Oh, Of course, says Mr.. NJ, I will not
iohisper it to any one; but how is it?
Well, says Bob, now I am miller,
and keep grist mill and grind fol
toll.
Yes, know, and first rate mill it is
TOO, and all your neighbors say that you
are an an onaly in nature; first rate
accommodating, honest miller, that,
never takes too much toll.
Oh, yes, understand you, under
stand your grist of soft corn; but tha
IS neither here nor there, let me tell yol
how it was.
Some weeks ago one of my WhIg
customers came to mill and brough
with him copy Of Mr.. Evans speech
upon the tariff, and while his grist wa
grinding he sat down and read it owe
to me, and commented learnedly an,
long upon that part of the speech whlcl
proves that high protective tart
makes goods lower, and the higher tn
duties the lower the price to the consu
ner.
I listened attentively and never dis
putetl word he said, and when he wa
about to start home, | asked him t
lendime the speech, for was great

the people as they came to the mill

fl Capital Joke. = A good natured
laugh has run around our village lately
from a story that is too good to conine
to such narrow borders. For several
we elss past large white owl has been
seen flying about in the vicinity. His
"Wisdom" has attracted many shots
from marksmen, which, whether too
small or poorly aimed, have been inelfec-
tual. One day not long age, he was seen
perched upon wall few rods west Of
the village, and several "good shots''
among "our first young men, stared in
pursuit. Creeping warily behind walls
and through bushes, they would attain
desirable proximity and 'let fy."-
The grave and reverend president of
night was imperturb able, however,
Some fired two or tLree times, but the
great eyes still glared unmoved. One
marksman would retire satisfied and
another would succeed. The result
was the same. Some came back
boldly laughing, and others sinking
with covered arms, for the village was
in roar of laughter. A stuffed owl
had been made to personate the live
specimen that had been actually seen,
and those eager to do execution had
learned that it was well to shoot white
owls cery carly IN .4pral.-Bcrre Ga

The Last Plea.-A wag tells fun
ny story, albeit tinged with hiperbole,
of case recently brought before the
Recorder. A fellow was charged with
stealing piece of cloth from a dry
goods store, when his lawyer put IN as
a plea, that his client did not see it.
"Not see ito said the recorder.
"He did not see it, sir,," responded
the lawyer.
"What do you mean?' queried the
Recorder.
"Why, l mean, sir that the iudivid-
ual charged with stealing that cloth
did not see it, sir-he could not see it
