CAN YOU HOLD IT?

A party of ladies and gentlemen, with
several children, We're riding in an open
carriage, drawn by beautiful pair of
horses, OH fine summer day, on IA visit
to Saratoga Lake. A little boy, son of
the gentleman who was riding, exhilera-
ted by the ride and the beautiful objects
continually opening to his view, became
very laxative, SO that it was with great
difficulty that any other person could
wedge in word cornerwise between his
sentences. At length he became very
impatient to seize hold of the reins.
'Do let me drive, father 2"
"No, my son. said his father, 1.-The
horses are full of spirit, and you cannot
hold them"
81 can! lean! father" the boy replied.
"Oh, / know can hold them. DO let me
try, father, do And he kept on in this
strain, rafting away as though there had
been no other tongue there but his own.
"Do you really think you can hold the
horses, Peter?" inquired gentleman of
the party.
ooh, yes sir, I know CAM
"Well," replied the gentleman, 81
know something you can't hold"
"What is it? What is it? can hold

with two fine ivory walls; but | know

"Why what can ii be? I can hold a

is it rabbit, or squirrel, or a bird?"
''None of these, my son. 1t is some
thing you can catch, if you try. But /
know you can't hold it." 1t keeps a 60
ing like the clapper Of mill, grinding
away all the time, but it don't grind out
much but bran, which the wind carries

PROSPECTUS.
OF THE
THIRTY-NINTH VOLUME
GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICE
THE
Knickerbocker MAGAZINE,


EDITED BY LOUIS GAYLORD CLARK,
will commence its THIRTY-NINTH volume
with the number for January, 1862.
The subscription price of the KNIcKER-
BOOKER will be reduced from five dollars
day Of January next.
| The change is made for a reason precise
ly the reverse Of that which ordinarily in
duces publisher to lower the rates of his
| Magazine. This is usually done because
the publication cannot be sustained at its
original rate, which is consequently reduced
with the hope of extending its circulation.
This is followed invariably by a deteriora
ton of the work, in all its departments,
and in everything relating to it. Indeed
itmay be laid down as rule, in the con-
Quoting Of Magazine, that if the original
price will not remunerate for its pubIica-
ton, it is only going from bad to worse to
to reduce that price.
The Knick rboeker at the present time
enjoys larger subscription list, and pays
better, than it ever did before; and of the
twenty y years Of IFS existence, the past year
has been the most prosperous.
The Publisher is now in a situation, in
consequence of the condition of the Mag
azine, to offer it at THREE DOLLARS per
annum.
With this reduction there will be no
change in its form, size, character or quail
ity, except chsnge always continued for
THE BETTER; for it will improve On the past
maintaining the position SO long awa.ded
to it.
TERMS: THREE DOLLARS a wear,
strictly in advance; there will be no de-
Walton from this condition.

ted 10 act as agents. Those who will I'M

ANEcDoTE OF WAsH1yGroy.-Itb has
often been remarked of Washington, that
no one was ever in his presence without
being strong ly impressed by reverence for
his dignity. But it seems by the follow
ing anecdote, which is related by cor
respondent of the New York Courier and
Enquirer, that there was at least one ex-
ception:
When the President was procuring the
ground for the city which was to be the
seat OF government, he had but little diff
Guilty in obtaining the necessary releases
except IN one instance. Mr.. James Bv-
rens was the owner of lot or tract which
it was advisable should be included in the
plan. The General had various confer
ences with Mr.. B., who was especially
obstinate, and resisted all the reasoning
and persuasion of that great man. Indig-
nant at being thus opposed, Washington
turned upon him with indignation, and
with great severity. "Mr. James By-
rens, what would your lands have been

ance was married, exclaimed, 81 am glad
to hear it." But rejecting moment, he
added in tone Of compassion and forgive

4 DASH AT SPRING,

a DASH AT SPRING.
Cash at spring--for buxom lass,
As she with her apron full
OF the rustlins leaves and the cheering grass,
And the flowers that greet us as we pass,
With the incense Of Cabui.
Her b ushing cheeks are the East and West.
When the crimson light is there,
AND the glorious noon is her golden vest,
And the bursting buds begcm her breast
And wreaths bloom in her hair!
She comes, the harper ofthe year,
Her Tyre in mellow tune,
And the bubblng brooks and the zephyr's cheer,
And the warbling birds in their glad career,
Will thrill till the month OF June.
Her breath is warmed by the wooing sun,
And comes from a southern land,
And she moves like queen, when her speech is DONE
Aware Of the love she has blandy won,
With liberal heart and hand.
Her flowing robes the rustns trees,
And buds and the flowers fair,
And the singing birds and the hunming bees,
And the butterflies that ride the breeze,
Are the brants gttcring there.
Then dash at Spring, with glowing pen,
And heart to feel her truth,
TIL the warming blood shall leap again,
And the pulse beat quick with joy as when
1t thrilled with the dreams OF youth.
Then welcome spring-for her smile will wing,
All grief ftom the heart in pain,
And healthy blush to the pale check bring,
And thrilling strain will her charms sing,
Till the chilled blood bounds again.
Her skirts have swept through she bowers OF Ind,
Mid the orange scent and bloom,
And Its odor comes on the laughing wind
And its fragrant airs Of delicious Scinde,
Are the damsel's choice perfume.
The earth Is carpeted DER with flowers,
Where e'er her foot has trod,
And to icy North, from tropical bowers,
She scatiers along in copious showers,
The bountiful gifts of God.
