"MY MOTHER DEAR. ?,
BY REV. NEWTON HEsToN.

MY MOTHER DEAR.
BY REV. NEWTON HEsToN.
knew an orphan child. One day as stroll
ling through the Monument Cemetery, ane
reading the inscriptions on its tom bstones,
met this child. She stood upon the grave 0
her mother; her heart was swelling with grief
and in bitter anguish she said, .Afy Mothe
dear, come back
Awake! my mother dear,
The ground is cold beneath my feet,
Why slumber here away from home,
Where storm and tempest loudly beat.
MY Mother dear, awake!
Oh stay no longer sleeping here,
"A dismal, dark, and silent place,
And all around thy grave is drear.
"My Mother dear, come back 4"
One year ago we laid thee here,
But oh, forever shall it be-
Will not thy voice announce thee near2
But silent why art thou?
| wander near thy grave alone,
| call and bid thee come away,
Oh, why not hear my silent moan2
Say, win thou meier awak
To home, sweet home again return?
Meier leave thy damp and silent grave,
And cause our hearts with joy to burn2
pause 10 hear thee speak
Alas! the vital spark has fled;
must believe the dreaded truth,
For oh, "My Mother dear, is dead!"

A LADY'S VISIT TO THE PRINT.
ING OFFICE.

ING OFFICE.
So-you sit there all day and cut out
pieces from the newspapers; | think
should like that, it's so much like patch
work.
Yes, madam, we excissorize some, tho
we are obliged to weave considerable cloth
ourselves. Suppose, you occupy our chair
and give the public ideas of editing pa
per.
Me! goodness | wouldn't sit down
there and write where every body is star
ing at one for the world; writing makes a
person cross. Besides your table is all ink, it
would soil my dress; why don't you have
a nice mahogany table, and white curtains
at the windows? What makes you hang
up these old dirty papers round the room'
II was obliged to stay here, the floor
should be Washed, and carpet laid down;
it must be dreadful 10 live so.
Oh those are our files; we couldn't dis
pense with them very well; and as for car
pet, we fear it would frghten away our
customers.
Dear me; the gentlemen are SO careless
about every thing nice, that | don't think
they are comfortable unless they can have
their rooms all Uttered up. Did you write
all those sheets to-day
Certainly, and we are moi through yet.
Why--it takes me whole day to COM
pose and copy letter. hope you don't
scrawl and blot so when you write TO the
ladies'
We never have that pleasure, madam.
No, aud you don't write for them either,
or you would not print such dry stuff as
you do.
Don't put any thing more about Oregon
and Congress in the paper, will you its SO
dull But what are those men doing in the
other room with their sleeves rolled up,
and making motions as il they were going
to fight Somebody
Those are compositors setting type, you
see they oil have Stick in one hand, and
they place the types in it with the other.
l don't see any sticks, unless you call
those little square pieces of iron so; hat
curious names you have | always tho,
stick was to walk with.
Well, ours make the world walk; those
little boxes that we call cases contain the
letter; and the printers put them together
into words and sentences by the aid Of that
little piece Of iron that youspeak of

UCH, uCCiaiC uoCtoIS ana lawyers
knew had cases, but never knew that prn-
tiers had before.
Certainly, madam; they sometimes are
foul cases, and hard cases, too; but what
can be expected Of those who lead the lives
OF deyils9
Why, do they Pm sorry to hear tt
Do tell me what that man is filling that
trough with water for.
He's going to wet the paper, you know
Oh, yes! Thought you always sprinkled
your papers and ironed them to make them
look 50 smooth; and ! suppose this great
gallows looking machine is your mangle.
That's the press, madam; and this handle
here is the Archimedcan lever, which moves
the world. Just notice its power, you per-
ceive that it's a broken ever--
Why in the world, then, don't you have
it mended? !? The men arealways so slack;
but what are those things that resemble
long picture frames'
Those are what we term galleys.
You have galleys, hey' didn't know
that the printers were SO much like the
Romans before.
Look yonder-what's that boy doing,
Oh, he's distributing handful Of pie.
Well, | should think handful of pie
would not be much among so many What
are you going to do with these slips of
printed paper,
These are proofs, and we are obliged to
read them; won't you sit down and help
us
No, indeed can't bear 10 read any
kind of proof, unless sometimes for trials,
for breach of promise. don't believe the
ladies would make very good printers.
Pardon us, madam, but we think they
would; their slender fingers would be the
very things for handling Small Caps, Non
Pareil, Diamond, and Minion; they might
do well eveh with Long Primer.
Pshaw don't mention ii !; never could
abide the name Of the long primer since ma
used to make me learn the catechism out of
it. Goodness gracious if / havn't spoiled
my gloves by touching some Of your old
types What dreadful thing it would be
TO get your ink on a ,lady's hand Good
morning.
