EATING By THE CARD.-A green 'un from
Orange county determined to spend few
weeks in New York, for the purpose Of
seeing all the sights; and, in order TO strike
MS acquaintance at home with a proper
idea OF the greatness of his visit, he took I'D
lodgings at the Astor House.
When he was ushered into dinner the
first day, he was surprised at the number of
people who sat down, as well as at the vast
ness of the dining-room. He was surprised
TO see that each man had printed account
of his dinner before him, and that each one,
as he thought, ate according 10 the direc-
tons. He was quite hungry, and well he
might be, after waiting three hours over
his usual time-so be attacked the head
OF the bill with vigcr and ale down as for as
be could; but he soon came to a stand.-
Just then the gentleman on his right re-
quested the waiter 10 bring him some OYSTER
pie, which our friend heard, and instantly
referred TO the list 10 see where it was

turning to bis neighbor, "Arc you all the

BY ROBERT JOssELYN.
IT'S bitter TO endure the wrong
Which evil hands and tongues commit,
The bold encroachment Of the strong,
The shafts of calumny and wit;
The scornful bearing of the proud,
The sneers and laughter of the crowd.
And harder still it is 10 bear
The censures of The good and wise,
Who, ignorant of what ye are, f5
Or blinded by the slanderer's lies,
Look coldly on, or pass you by,
In silence with ayerted eye.
But, when the friends, in whom YOU trust
Was steadfast as the mountain rock,
Fly, and are scattered like the dust,
Before Misfortune's whirlwind shock;
Nor love remains TO cheer your fall,
This is more terrible than all
But even this and these lay, more
Can be endured, and hope survive,
The noble spirit still may soar,
Although the body fails TO thrive;
Diseases and want may wear The frame
Thank God! the soul IS still the same.
Hold up your head, then. man of grief,
Nor longer to the tempest bend;
For sooner or late must come relief;
The coolest, darkest night will end;
Hope in the true heart never dies!
Trust on-the day-star shall rise!
Conscious of purity and worth,
You may with calm assurance wait
The tardy recompense of earth;
And cen should justice come too late
To soolhe the spirits onward fight,
Still Heaven, 1T last the wrong shall right.
