The following poem is quoted in Washingto
rving's Analetic Magazine from the Europea
Magazine, of Sept. 1912, the second part of whc
was written by Rev. Ralph Erskine, of the churc
IF Scotland, entitled:
SMOKING SPIRITUALTZED.
PART /.
This Indian weed now withered quite,
Though green at noon cut down at night
Shows thy decay;
All flesh is hay.
Thus think and smoke tobacco.
The pipe, so lilly like and weak,
Does thus thy mortal state bespeak.
Thou art cen such,
Gone with touch.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
And when the smoke ascends on high,
Then thou behold st the vanity
Of worldly stuff,
Gone with puff.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
And when the pipe grows foul within,
Think on thy soul defil'd with sin;
For then the fire
1t does require.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
And seest the ashes cast away
Then to myself thou mayest say,
That to the dust
Return thou must.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
PART II.
Was this small plant for thee cut down!
So was the plant of Great Renown,
Which mercy sends
For nobler ends.
Thus think and smoke tobacco
Doth juice medicinal proceed
From such a naughty foreign weed!
Then what's the power
OfJesse's flower!
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
The promise, like the pipe, inlays,
And, by the Mouth of faith, conveys
What virtue flows
From Sharon's Rose.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco
In vain the unlighted pipe you blow;
Your pains in outward means are so;
Till heavenly fire
Your hearts inspire
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.
The smoke, like burning incense towers,
So should a praying heart of yours,
With ardent cries,
Surmount the skies.
Thus think, and smoke tobacco.

TO THE PATRONS OF THE
REGISTER.

The undersigned having purchased
off. A. TYLER Esq. the Weekly Regis
ter Office, deem ii their duty to address
themselves to its Patrons and the public,
ia relation to the manner in whichit will,
in future, be conducted.
In thus assuming the high duty Of
conducting a public Journal, they may,
perhaps have presumed too much upon
their abilities and the indulgence of the
public; but they feel assured, that if
application and unremittlng attention,
be the chief requisites to ensure the
patronage of liberal and enlightened
public, the success Of the Register will
be certain.
The political aspect of the Register,
will undergo no change. To the Wing
party we belong; and in the ranks oil
that party, we intend to do battle, wheth
err victory perch upon our standard, or
defeat and ruin rage around us. We
hold the principles Of the Wing party
to be the true principles ofthe Govern
ment-the principles handed down to US
by the sages of76.
Although the result oFthe recent con-
test has proved most disastrous to US
although our banner has trailed IN the
dust--aithough its 'stars ard stripes
have grown suddenly dim," and our
armies routed and scattered, every
where, vet, like valiant soldiers, we
will snatch Up our banner, and brush the
dust from its folds; and rally for anoth-
er contest.
The Register will not be devoted eX-
clusiveIy to Political intelligence AS

A good wife exhibits her love for her
husband by trying to promote his well
fare, and by administering 10 his com
fort.
A mean wife 'dears' and my loves
her husband and wouldn't sew button
to his coat to keep him from freezing
A sensible wife looks for her enjoy
ment at home-a silly once abroad.
A wise girl, would win lover by
practising those virtues which secure
admir- alton when personal charms have
failed.
A simple girl endeavors TO recon-
mend herself by the exhibition Of frlv-
olous accompli shments and mawklsf

A good girl always respects herself:
and therefore always possesses the res

The Wind


The wind is q bachelor,
Merry and free,
He roves at his pleasure
Der land and DER sea;
He ruflles the lake,
And he kisses the flower,
And he sleeps when he lists
In jaSamin bower.
He gives to the cheek
OF the maiden It's bloom,
He tastes her warm kisses,
Enjoys their perfume,
But, truant-lille, often
The sweets that he sips
Are lavished next moment
On lovelier lips!
The Deathbed.
He watch'd her breathing thro' the night
Her breathing soft and low,
As in her breast the wave of life
Kept heaving to and fro.
So silently we seemed to speak,
So slowly moved, about,
As we had lent her half our powers
To exc her being out.
Our very hopes beIred our fears,
Oar fears our hopes belied:
We thought her dying when she slept,
And sleeping when she died
For when The morn came aim and sad,
And chill with early showers.
Her quiet eyelids closed; she had
An other morn than ours.
