MY MOTHERS GOOD-BY.
BY THOMAS NJ. COOLEY.


My mohef's good by"--I hear it still
1t comes my eyes with tears TO ell;
1t comes in the hours oflonely grief,
And it brings me sad yet sweet relief;
1t tells me Of one who will love Inc still
II my fortune be good or he ever so i'll
And face full of kindness comes up 10 my eye
As listen again TO that last good-ly
My mothers "good-by"-it comes to me
Like a peace be-still to the troubled sea Icnce
Aud when passions would sway, or temptations
hear the sound Of warning voice,
"Nly son, this world is a world of sin,
And there's many n tempting vice therein,
But shun them all, AM their presence fy,
And God will protect thee by, good byW
My mothers "good-by"--I was very young
When sadly lhc words fist fell from her tongue
But they cling 10 me still us a part Of my life
My aid in the worlds unfcclng strife;
They cume in the morn, and they come in the even
To bring to my sad heart dreams of heaven;
And many lime have thought, with a sigh,
That an angel speaks in mothers goodby.

MARRIAGE OurRlGHT.-ln one Of the upper
counties of the Stale of North Carolina, a
young fellow named Ben Sykes. had courted
a fair one for some years, but either was not
ready or willing to put the question; she was
fully .willing--perhaps too willing-but he
never came to the scratch. At last she got
mad, and said she would marry Bill Patterson,
if he ever courted her again. Bill, on hearing
Of this determination, went once more and put
in his claim he was scurvy fellow in some
things, and neither 'ma'am' nor dad were
willing to it. So he secretly goes to R. got a

SOLITUDE.

Although man is social being, and de-
lights in the company Of his fellows, yet
there are times in life, when he derives
his sweetest hours of enjoyment from the
lonely hours of solitude. Then he is far
from the busy hum of men, and the world
contention, where no eye beholds him bu,
the eye Of Omnicience, whose character
and attributes, he conlemplates with pleas
ure; and for whose pas. fa,herly pro,ec-
ton and great kindness, his hoart dila,es
with gralitudes; and in his simple ye,
ferven. prisons, he humbly soici,s their
continuance from the bounlliul Giver of all
good. sa5 -5
In solitude, too. we derive pleasure from
retrospect of the past. The peaceful
moments Of retirement are hallowed BY a
thousand pleasing recolIec,ions Of the by
gone scenes and enjoymen,s of other days,
which lhrong the mind in rapid success
sion and pass away like the glimmerings
OF mettior. It's sweet to ramble in the
flowery fields Of memory and gather The
beautiful evergreens that entwine ,hem>
selves around every object before u.s.
While thus spell-bound by the soft music
and silen. language which vibrale upon
every chord Of our hearts, we almost fam
~ ourselves disen,hralled from earth, and

the past, with whom we were once famil.

POETRY
From the Hartford Times.
ruC LIST PROCE6SIOsN

From the Hartford Times.
TIE LIST PROCESSION:
Me,houe.st at ever,-tide I paused,
One cold November day,
Where dry and grim an ash pole stood
Like ghost beside the way;
When on mine ear wall arose,
And slowly Ger mine eye,
With solemn tread heightened train
In funeral guise swept by.
Fin,, with face whose depth Of gloom!
Ambitions blight had cast,
The .Millboy' Of the slashes moved
The chieiest mourner past:
And then to soothe his rising grief -:
With sympathetic tear,
With solemn air, SO meek and good.
Walked Frelinghuysen near.
With brandng-iron in each hand.
From his far travels come,
t'asoIaced in his deep despair.
Sralked Roorback,' dark and gloom;
And sadly leaning on his arm,
His old and tender fame.
In all her weeds OF wo arrayed,
The Widow Bringhart' came.
TLen General Edwards and his son..
That estimable pair,
Marched midst troop Of Juveniles.
Al l.c,1;oc NTH limo hair.
While dolorous upon the breeze,
All wheezingly and wide, 'N
Like his own windy bellows, tho
.poughkeepsie Blacksmith sighed
And then that coach expressly built
And decked with silk and gold.
The great embodiment to bear,
With sullen motion rolled;
And as along the dusky way
Its darkening course it kept,
Beside it, with his Clay Tribune.
Poor Greedy wa!kek and wept.
Then thronged long and dismal host,
A thouaand men or more,
And each upon frowzy rag
scurvy motto bore;
And colporteurs,' with Junius' tracts
A ushing, weary load,
Bent down with WEAKNESS and wo,
In sad procession trodc.
And sore upon his wounded call.
With tear drops in his eye,
The great godfather Of the 'whigs'
TIL immortal Webb limped BY.
A doleful drge, 10 Hoxie sung
Amid st that sorrowing train.
And selee clubs and Clay Ministries joined
The melancholy strain.
And thus they made long array.
At evenings sombrs hour;
And grief was heavy on each heart.
With its overmastering power:
For 'brokcn,' busted gone to pot
Exploded, vanquished, fed,
The great wing party was no more
That same old COON aU0s sEAD!
