SONG.

Give me old music let me hear
The songs of days gone by,
Nor stay thy voice in kindly fear,
Tito thy uotes falling tear
Should make mute reply;
The songs that lulled me on the breast,
To sleep away the noon,
Sing On-sing on love them best,
There's witchery in the notes imprest
With each familiar tune.
Give mo old wine i,s choicest store
Draw from the shady bin;
Our vineyards shall produce no moro
Such rare strong,irace they gave of yorc,
As sparkling lies within
This was my grundsirc's chief delight,
When the days chase was DER,
Fill high fill high It's treasures bright
Shall sparkle on our board tonight,
Though We should drink no more,
Give me old friends-the tried, the true,
Who launched their barks with me,
And all my joys and sorrows knew
AS chances gales the pilgrim blew
Across the troubled sea
Their memories are the same as mine
Our loves through life shall last
Bring one, bring ALL, your smiles to shin'
Upon our good old songs and wine,
o Like sun beams from the past

The Yankee and the Dutchman.s Dog.

The Yankee and the Dutchmanss Dog
Abner was quiet. peaeeable sort Of a
Yankee, who lived on the same farm ON
which his fathers had lived before him,
and was generally considered a pretty
cute sort of fellow, always ready with a
trick, whenever it was of the least utility;
yet when he did play off his tricks it was
done in such cute manner, that his VIC
tim could do no better than take it all in
good part. .ar.,l ..s.f. -...r.-5.
Now it so happened that one of his
neighbors sold farm to atolerably green
specimen of Dutehman-one of the real
stupid, unintelligent sort. Won Ylom
Schlopa had dog, as Dutchmen often do,
who was less unintelligent than his mas
ter, and who had since leaving his fader-
land become sufficiently civilized not
only to appropriate the soil as common
property, but had progressed so far in the
good work as to obtain his dinners from
the sheepfold of the neighbors on the same
principle. .l
When Abner discovered this propensi-
in the canine department of the family of
the Dutchman, he called over to his new
neighbor to enter complaint, which mis-
sion he accomplished in the most natural
manner in the world.
Wal, Won, your dog Bitten has been
killing my sheep rt
va, dat ish bace-bad he ish Won
goot tog; va, dat ish bad.
Sartain its bad, and yeull have to stop
him.
va, dat ism all as goot-but Ich weis
NIGHT.
What is that you say ? he tOas nickea?
Wal meow, look here old Teller, nickin is
no use-crop him-cut the tail close off
-chock up teu the rump-that will cure
him.
. Vat ish dat? exclaimed the Dutchman
while a faint ray ofintelligence crept over
his features va, dat ish goot-dat cure
Won sheep steal, Ell?
Sartain it will, he will never touch
sheep meat again in the world said Abb
ner gravely.
Den come nit me-he Won mighty goot
toy all the way from Yarmany l not
take Won FIVE dollar-but come nit me
and hold his tail, Ell? Ich chop him off.
Sartain, said Abner, l will hold his tail if
you want me tew, but you must cut it up
close.
va, dat ish right-Tch make him Won
goot tog-there, Bitten, Bitten, come
right here, you Won sheep steal rasheull-
1 shop your tail in Won two pieces.
The dog obeyed the summons, and the
master tied his feet fore and aft, for fear
of accident, and placing the tail in
the hands of the Yankee, requested him
to lay it across large stick of wood.
Chock up, said Abner, as he drew the
butt of the tail close over the log,
va, dat ish right-now you Won tam
tief sheep, learns you better luck, said
Won Vlom Schlopa, as he raised the axe.
1t descended, and as it did so, Abner
with characteristic presence of mind, gave
sudden jerk and brought his neck over
the log, and the head rolled over the 9TH
err side.
Wal swow said Abner with appa-
rent establishment, rs he dropped the
headless trunk of the dog, that was lee
tie too close.
Mine cot exclaimed the Dutchman,
you s1ust cm him of de 'cromg end!

And so he did; put on bold face, and
says /, stranger, does this woman belong

he observed a stranger, evidently for

shifted too and still with unblanching
gaze, he stared This was too much for
Montgomery, who rose and approached
his scrutinizing intruder:

lieutenant.

back his sleeve, and displaying very
broad and ugly scar. 81 didn't get this
for nothing, for the brave fellow who
made me a present of it repaid with a
cash across his skull"
The Frenchman bent down his head,
parted his hair with his hand, and said
YOU may look at the receipt"
The next moment they were in each
others arms. They became bosom friends
for life.

Gx- AFTER QUEEN VICTORIA came TO
the throne, present was sent to her
from Jerusalem of an olive tree. 1t was
kept on deck, and appeared to die on the
passage Inthat state it was entrusted to
the gardeners. On the week in which
her majesty was crowned, the Bristol
Mercury Stated, tLv,t tho ao-onotinn,
this tree put forth twelve blossoms
From this incident it is thought that the
twelve tribes of Israel will be gathered in
the reign of Victoria. Some, who are
less theological and more genealogical
infer that she will have twelve children.

OUTWARD BEAUTY--I cannot under
stand, says Frederick Bremen, the impor-
lance which certain people set upon out
ward beauty or plainness. am of the
opinion that all true education, such at
least as has a religious foundation, must
infuse a noble calm, wholesome cold
ness, as an indifference, or whatever peo-
pie may call it, towards such-like outward
gifts, or the want of them. And who has
not experienced of how little consequence
they are, in fact, for the veal or woe of
life? Who has not experienced how, on
nearer acquaintance, Plainness becomes
oeautifed, and beauty loses its charm,
exactly according to the quality of the
heart and mind And from this cause
am also of the opinion that the want of
outward beauty never disquiets a noble
nature, or will be regarded as a misfor-
tune. 1t never can prevent people from
being amiable and beloved in the highest
degree, and ofthis we have daily proof.
