A Thirsty Soul

A very good widow lady, who was looked
up to by the congregation at the meeting to
which she belonged, as an example ofpiety,
contrived TO bring her conscience to terms
for one little indulgence. She loved porter,
and one day, just as she was receiving half
a-dozen bottles from the mau who usully
brought her the comforting beverage, she
perceived, loh, horrors !! two of the grave
elders of the church approaching the door
She hurried the man out the back way, and
put the bottles under the bed. The weather
was hot, aud while conversng with the sage
friends, pop went one ofthe corks.
dear me" exclaimed the good lady,
"there goes that BEDFORD ; it snapped yes
terday just the same way must have a
new rope provided" In few moments pop
went another, followed by the peculiar hiss
ing the escaping liquor. The rope would
1T do again, but the good lady was not at a
loss Dear me-" says she, that blackcat of
mine must be at some mischief there. Hist,

A wife OF Three Husbands.

Mrs. Gertrude Kohler, lady OF German
extraction. was charged with making a
small arithmetical mistake by retaining two
husbands more than the regular and lega'
allowance. Mrs. X. was married to Chris
1ophcr Phelz, in Carlisle, Pa, five years ago.
Two wears ago she removed to Lancaster,
forgetting to take her husband among her
other baggage, and, in very short time,
she contracted a matrimonial alliance with
Lancaster man, named Michael Gcphard.
" One more remove" as Hamlet says, and
we find her in Philadelphia, Messrs. PheltZ
and Gephard abandoned and forgotten, and
the caprlcious lady in matrimonial copart-
nership with Jacob Kohler. We have it on
philosophical authority, that" three removes
are as bad as fire" and so they are undoubt-
eddy, if an additional husband is taken with
every change of locality. Pheltz went to
Lancaster in search of his lovely absentee;
there he met with Gephard, husband No. 2.
and after some talk together, both gentle.
men agreed to pursue her to Philadelphia,
which city they ascertained 10 be her present
place Of residence, and they proposed to de-
, lay the settlement Of their respective claims
until they had found her. She was found By
them in the possession of Mr., J. Kohler, and
,hree gentlemen, instead Of engaging III
nonsensIcal quarrelabout the contested prop
erty, agreed to play three handed game of
Seven up" to decide who was Tie husband
dc fdctO-the beer to he paid for by an e.
Qnal contribution Of the three claimants.
Pheltz, husband No. |. won the game in
two hands, aud was about take possession
of the stakes, but Gertrude fatty refused to
abide by the decision of the cards, express
ing an unqualified preference for the third
aud last numoer OF the matrimonial series.
Pneitz, therefore, had recourse to another
game Of chauce, ujdeic!t the law, and Ger
trnde was brought up to answer the COM
pIaiut OF her Nleneaus. When asked what
had induced her to leave her first two hus-
bauds, she answered that they were ''niches
goot,' and th4l Mr.. Kohler was worth
'apnut six hundlet of such tlrty rascais. |
try dem ali, said she "and takes te bestest;
ard if he r.ot root, tries blenty more, till
| finds Duchman dat suits Jest right"
1t was impossible to make her understand
that this kind Of experimenting was not alto
gether correct. and she was committed for
"biGamy, (,s he law mlsc4Is her oltence,)
evidently considering herself amuch nj lred
aud prosecuted woman-PcnnSyl0aniaa.

-
For the Freeman.
Dirge to the Seasons.
The Spring is gone--its sunheams glare,
And all its gudy blooming train;
The rivulets and RISES fair,
The woodbnes and the russell plain.
The verdant meads, the hawthom's robe,
The tlnklng streams, the wood lark's lay,
Have vanished as the seasons-rode
In their resistless speed away.
The Summer, with her thousand charms,
With bosom decked with Natures sweets,
Has passed into Autumn's arms,
And left us here amid its sleels.
The woodlands grand, late green alfred,
Are bare. and desolate appears
Their minstrel birds, in tune inspired,
Have bid adeu the dying year.
All withered is each tiny herb,
Each stalk that hung in low'rets here
wished to see--but how absurd -
Some bud sarvlve the dying year.
The ruthless wi1ds that sigh and moan,
The rusting leaves that scattered lie,
Each have Il sadness in their tone,
That echoes as the seasons fly.
Times changes well may move the heart
What wrecks bsstrow the passing year
1t hath lesson to unpart
That can but well deserve tear.
An emblem true Of human life,
The passing, dying seasons arcs
They tell how brief mans mortal strii e,
How fraiI our booming luWerts are.
How many young and budding hopes
viii perish with the closing ear,
As every step some gateway opeS
Which leads US to the silent bier
Each rolling year that rlpd flies,
Consgns unto the ruthless tomb,
Some priceless gen-some lovely prize,
Ere budding beauty is in bloom.
The smiling babe has gone TO sleep
While sprina HI. sung its lullaby;
The rosy chilli with faded check,
OF leaves rs ere the violets die.
And youth, while summer decks the plain,
Perhaps may wither by its heat;
Or Manhood in its rudy prime,
Lie wrapt within Winding sheet.
Advancing age with feeble step,
More like sh II mest The autumn's doom,
And winters solemn retrospect
Shall fad them hiusel within the tomb.
Decrepit years with silver hairs,
All whtaned over for the grave,
Hp1le concluding winter spares
Source less than miracle can save
Tie rolling year ncessant gljdeS
On Ger the dial face Of tnnt,
And though its orb in rapid strides
Our earth moves on rom line T. line
TIL each successive season 1cs,
Till dpring and summer bath appaars-
The Auiuml comes-last, wn'aI slghs
Its solemn drgc and rounds the year.
The genial spring, with w y tears,
And Sl.nuIar brglt vita russell plain,
Or Autumn, with It's harvest ears
Whi' leading on the Seasons tain
Present Us each with gorgeous huc',
PeculIrr t. Iii If transient re,an;
5ut winter shrouds their vrrdaut views
And sings tL4 spoSnn, >. n ,.iu,t .ttn.n
So human life begins with Spring,
INT Ids ill sumner ars IL way;
Then Autumn all its treasures bring,
But winter shrouds our myuldeting clay.
The Seasons fly all things decay!
As time rolls an hen wheeling train
But time rentws in mystic WY
To die is but to live again.
