The Past.

How wild and dim this life appears,
One long, deep, heavy sigh,
When O'er our eyes, half-closed in tears,
The images of former years
Are family gliding by!
And still forgotten while they 60,
As, on the sea-beach, wave on wave
Dissolve at once in snow.
The amber clouds one moment lie,
Then like a dream are gone!
Though beautiful the moonbeams lty
On the lakes bosom, bright as they,
And the soul intensely loves their stay,
Soon as the radiance melts away,
We scarce believe it shone!
Heaven-airs amid the harp-strings dwell,
And we wish they ne'er may fade;-
They cease--and the soul is silent cell,
Where music never play'd.
Dreams follow dreams through the lonI
night hours,
Each lovelier than the last;
But ere the breath of monng flowers,
That gorgeous world flies past,
And many a sweet angelic check,
Whose smiles of love and fondness speak.
Glides by us on this earth,
While in a day we cannot tell
Whora uI,ono bc fora uo lnrn cn 1yal1
In sadness or in sorrow.

FARMERs.-Adam was farmer while
yet in Paradise, and after his fall, COM
manded to earn his bread by the sweat of
his brow, Job, the honest, ust and pa

a farmer, and yet welded to his calling the

Luke was a farmer, and divides with Pro-
metheus the honor of subjecting the OK to
the use of man. Cincinnatus was a farm
er, and the noblcst Roman of them all.
Burns was a farmer, and the muse found
him at the pillow, and filled his soul with
poetry. Washington was farmer, and
retired from the highest earthly station to
enjoy the quiet of rural life, and presented
to the world spectacle Of human great
ness. To those may be added host Of

A Pretty Man.

Reader, did you ever watch the motions
of pretty man-that is, one who had a
good opinion of his own personal ap-
pearance? If not, allow us to give you
a few of his peculiarities We would not
say that being pretty or good-looking is
a great fault, or that men should be in
different to such an establishment, but we
do insist that vanity should not be one of
it's accompaniments. The ladies, when
pretty, seem to have some excuse for be-
ing vain for so long as men are foolish
enough to worship them as angels, theil
weakness and vanity will be exhibited.
The pretty man, when he walks the
streets, is9 sure to hold his head well up.
and if he has whiskers or a moustache, tc
keep them well oiled and brushed. His
arms, when walking, are not allowed tt
swing to and fro like pendulums, nor doe'
it become him to allow his legs to carry
him at a breakneck pace-this might bal
file his countenancc, or take the starch ou
of his extensive and wellstarched collar
His necktic is perfect, and his pants sc
set without a wrinkle. If he wears a
eye-glass-almost of them are near-sight
edit is occasionally gently and graceful
ly raised to his eyes, that he may be tn
better enabled to look at the fair being
passing to and fro. But, the pretty ma
appears to the best advantage after dinner
at a fashionable hotel, when he gent
seats himself in an armchair, in front {
all the company, witha cigar in his moutl
and his heels gracefully resting upon
railing some feet higher than his hea(
leaving the passer-by in doubt wheth'
there is body attached to the legs,
that the pantaloons have been thus stretcl
ed to dry.
In the company of ladies he shines pr
eminent. He generally endeavors to Sc
himself opposite the pier-glass, where h
well-developed proportions and combin
tions of art and nature can be faithful
portrayed, much to his own gratiicati'
and the amusement of those less goo
looking. But though he may, if sens
bic, which is sometimes the case, discov
smile upon the face of those who S
fim, he heeds it not, because he is sure
is the smile of envy, and not of ridicule
Happy mortals, ye pretty men; t
darlings of all sentimental ladies, and t
envy of all brainless young men who fl
that beauty is the rarest of all eartl
qualifications.

Our OF EMPLoYMENT.-Ou of employ
ment The exclamation, says the Alba
nv KnickerJocker. is almost as common
as the notices of ''to let' on new houses.
Why out of employment I? Has inge-
nuity reached its end, that flesh and blood
must waste as the flower wits when
plocked from the stem? Energy may be
seen any day in a week, at street corner
sharpening knives. Apple stanis yield
profit enough to pay for an upper room
and something approaching to comfort.
Matches industriously offered, have pur-
chased a house and let. Tripe and sau-
sage meat, enable the dealer to keep cool
in warm weather, and more than pay for
coal and expenses when frost prevails. An
Ethiopian swill collector has qualified
himself to exercise the elective franchise
by pursuing his sloppy vocation with Wig
or. Out of employment Who can
know who or what you are if you stand
at the corner moping and wondering why
a stranger does not step forward and eX-
tend helping hand Never hope to
jump at once into prosperity, for the chas m
between industry and idleness is of fright
ful width. Never allow pride to bring a
blush to your cheek because yorr business
is humble. Pride is not reliable in all
cases If You labor you produce, and
,, producers are certain of reward in some
form. If YOU are cheated Of your money,
an honest man may hear of your calami-
ty, and with generous heart offer you 6
I position. Never say out of employment !!
e because no reasonable excuse can be of.
I fered therefor. The world is wide; th'
r people daily find rest in the cemeteries
= ! and places must be supplied. There
work enough for all, while integrity au'
" sincerity are characteristics. Try again.
