steps, and vigor to your framesl Take ear

strings, and run up hill for wager and down
again for fun. Roam the fields, climb tho
fences, leap the bitches, wade the brook and
go home with an appetite like horse. Lib
erty, thus exercised and enjoyed, will render
you healthy, hearty. blooming, and be autiful
-as lovely as the Graess, and as prolific as
Deverra. The buxom, bright-eyed, rosy
checked, full breasted, bouncing lass-who
can darn stocking, mend trousers, make
her own frooks, command regiment of pots
and kettles, feed the pigs. chop wood milk

under, and be lady withalin company

generally speaking, more liberty and less
fashionable restraint-more kitchen and less
parlor-niore leg-exereise and less sofa
more pudding and less plaRo-more frank

Joy moro liberty and less restraint by fashion.
Breathe the pure atmosphere of freedom, and

consent of Josephine's parents to his mar

wedding day was appointed. For this and
other good reasons, Alberts heart was over

In conclusion we may remark that, on
his journey home, Albert attracted general
attention, and won, the good will and esteem
of every body, by the respect and evility of
his department towards his fellow travellers.

Printers.

A true republican looks with sympathetic
interest upon all classes of men who earn
their bread by the sweat of the brow, but of
course there must be vocations for which one
has particular regard, and we confess that
among these we know ot rone more impor-
tant, nor of a class moro generally useful,
than that of Printers. From a long daily
and constant association with them, we have
learned to look on them as one large family
-nervous, jovial, thoughtful, witty, bilious,
poor, proud, wiggling, talkative, in relation
TO whom we stand as sort of half brother,
or second cousin on a long visit to them
There they stand at their eases-breathing
machines, magical automata--dagurrsoty
ping, as it were, the passing scenes of life's
changeful panorama, sending forth into the
world the worlds history of itself, with such
a generally accurate minsteness, such order
and punctuality, that the unadvised world
conceive, if they think anything about their
benefactors that the toll is not only easy, but
amusing-the Printer has such fine chance
to get the first news.
Favored race! the average duration of
Printers life is estimated at twenty-eight
years Agreeable and healthy must be the
occupation that has such an effect upon the
system. A Printer is literally gdtty-slave,
though he is nominally paid for his labors.
What amount of wages will compensate him
for tho loss Of proper exercise, pure air and
reasonable sleep' How much gold will
purge the lead from his systeml What &C.
static enjoyment which, in the round of his
abbreviated years, will compensate him for
the years he is deprived Of! He looks upon
the fair vista of happy old age as Moses
viewed the land of promise "a vision OF beau
ty not his fortune to realize.
We really think that If thero is anything
in an age of intelligence like this to reprosch
itself with, it is neglect Of the Printers, in
view Of the scanty rewards and their hope
less, refugeess, unhealthy drudgery. Empt
y praises may be bestowed upon them by
some artful, political demagogue, and they
may be toasted at festivals, in a oondesoon
ding way, but words will not reward them nor
build asylums for the consumptive, nor put
bread into the mouths Of the Printer and his
family. when temporarily or permanently
thrown out Of work by dull business. or by
the sickness resulting from his vocation'-
Hard life and i'll rewarded.
