DECEIVED BY APPEARANCES

Some years since, merchant on Long Wharf
advertised for Spanish mlled dollars. The prefni-
um was high A Roxbury farmer who came IN
town for manure, and who took pride in appearing
like poor man, with shovel on his shoulder, CALI

if he wanted silver dollars.

"Not with me-" said the farmer, @but I think
have few at home. What do you give"
-Four per cent" said the merchant, and added,
81 will give you seuen for all you will bring me-"
"Well said the man, 4" should like to have
you clap down on paper how much you give, and

"Yes" said the merchant, "that will do; what
Is your name "

The merchant then wrote as fellows, and gave it
to him:
edward Sumner, of Roxbury, says that he
thinks that he has some Spanish dollars at home,
but don't know. hereby agree to pay him seven
per cent. premium for all such dollars he may
produce. G--A-."
"If find any," said the cartman, :" ri call with
them TO morrow morning at nine o'clock; if don't
you won't see me-"
Il The appearance of the man satisfied the mer-
chant that his dollars would be scarce. At nine
o'clock the next day, however, the man appeared,
and stocking full after stocking full was carried up
and emptled on the table, until seren thousand was
counted The merchant, somewhat restlve but
honorably caught, took the silver, gave check for
the amount, with seven per cent added, pleasantly
remarking:
81 did not really suppose, from your appearance
that you could have more than half dozen dol
lars"
Mr. S----took up his check, and replied in
his own peculiarly emphatic style:

There is great difference, as the above shows,

emple, yielded little more than half of what was
obtained from the rough reds. On the whole, the
red potatoes seem to be the best starchgyers, and
it appears to make little difference whether guano

LAST SOLDIER OF THE REVOLUTION.

Oh where arc thcy-those iron mon,
Who hrlved the battles storm of fire,
When wars wild halo filled the glen,
And lii each humble village spirc
When hill sent back the sound to hill,
And might was right, and law was will
oh where are they whose manly breasts
Beat back the pride of Engllnt's might,
Whose stolWart arms hid low the crcsts
OF mIny an old and valiant knight
When evening came with murderOus flame,
And Liberty was but name.
] see them in the distance form,
Like spcctres ON the misty shore,
Before them rolls the dreadful storm,
And hills send forth their rlls of gore;
Around them death with lightning breath
Is twinng an immortal wreath.
'1s evening, and the setting sun
sinks slowly down beneath the wave,
And there 1 saw gray-hared one
A special courier to the grave
Hc looks around on vale and mound
And falls upon his battle ground.
Beneath him sleeps the hallowed earth,
Now chilled like him, and still and cold
The blood that gave young Freedom birth
No longer warns the warrior old
lie waves his hand with stern command,
Then dies, the last Of glory's band.

TO THE GOD OF SLEEP.
Old Morpheus now shall have vow
Once more to me he's kind
lie did not leave my heart to grieyc,
For sleep and rest to find.
Lust night he camel knew his name,
And glad was he cuIdi
Half closed his eyes, his head small Sized

A few white hairs around his cara
Were floating in the air -
lie made no talb-with cane he walk d.
His step could not hear.
NV heart partook his every look,
so weary worn with care
He waved his hnnd--like witch's wand
felt its drowsy power.
The morning broke, my eyes awoke--
sighed, Where is my guest:
I'd say good morn, but find him gone
Gonc whcrci q, he knows best.
