IT'S SWEET TO DREAM IN CHILD
HOOD

o 1t Is sweet, in chdhood's vernal morn,
Ere the young heart has learned to know unrest
Ere fancied ills oppose, or thoughts forlorn
Come, crowding to the aching heart, and breast
'Tis sweet, in dreamy slumbers to behold
The glorious Fairy Land that children love;
To bask by silvery fountains tipped with gold,
Where evening zephyrs kiss the clouds above,
Where matin songsters their glad strains renew;
And "stars that sang together meet theii
strains;
Where every leaf and flower join the chorus too
And music, universal music reigns;
Where soft winds murmur Love in accents low;
And forest, field and plain, by Beauty graced;
Where Peace and Friendship in harmonious flow
Glide smoothly on. Mercy and Truth embraced
There the sweet flower of piety may bloom
Unnipped by Infdelite's cold blast.
Prayer fourishes and sheds its sweet perfume
Upon the balmy air that's floating past.
Death rarely enters there, but when he comes
He takes some weary ones unto his breast
And bears them to hoier, happier home:
A home Of quiet and unbroken rest.
'Tis sweet to die in dreamland, as the sun
Sinks to its rest, behind the western wave;
The moon is sailing on, and one by one
The stars look calmly down, upon grave
Where roses bloom by Beauty planted there
A requium is chanted by a Fairy land
Oft to the little mound do they repair,
OIL it is sweet to die in Fairy Land.

IMPoRTANT.-Dr. Samuel Greenhorn, in an
eminent pathological work of his, enumerates
quite a number of professions, &C., which
have their peculiar diseases and difficulties,
thus:
Printers are often taken with the typhoid fe-
yer.
Milers are sometimes troubled with hard
cornS.
Harness-makers have been known to die with
cholera.
Cooks often have Joils.
Seamen's lives are generally considered un-
safe, especially if they happen to get immersed,
when downward career often follows.
Young people, in their teens, are scarcely ever
free from affections of the heart" for the cure
of which the learned doctor wisely recommends
marriage.
When too many shoemakers get into COM
munity, there is often noticed an increased con-
sumption at the awlfactories, at which times
many a leather-shank gets pricked to the sole,
and the very hairs stand on end; and though
that seems very hogish in them, people do not
often fall out with the CHEEKY (sherry) cob.
bier.
Poets, and other artists, as we'll as many shop
girls. in the city of Boston, are much confined
by room-aHic complaints.

WoMEN-Theodore Parker, in recent SER
mon, uttered the following, touching women:
There are three classes of women.
First-domcstic drudges, who are wholly ia
ken up in the maternal details of their house,
keeping and child.keeping. Their house-keep.
ing is trade and no more; and after they have
done that, there is no more which they can do.
In New England, it is class getting less every
year.
Next there are domestic dolls, wholly taken
up with the vain show which delights their eyes
and ears. They are ornaments of the estate
Similar toys, suppose, will one day be more
cheaply manufactured at Paris, Nuremberg,
Frankfort-on-the-Ma Maine, and other toy shops in
Europe, out of wax or paper-mache, and sold in
Boston, at the haberdasher's by the Dozen
These ask nothing beyond their functions as
dolls and hate all attempts to elevate woman.
kind.
But, there are domestic women, who order a
house, and are not mere drudges-adorn it, and
are not mere dolls, but women. Some of these
"A great many of them--conjoin the useful of
the drudge and the beautiful Of the doll into
one womanhood, and have great deal left be-
sides. They are wholly taken up with their
functions as a house-keeper, a wife, and moth

STRANGE.-There is a man in this city who
has singular species of insanity He imagines
that he must work with all his energy continu-
ally, else he shall fail crazy again. When CON-
petely weared by labor he must lie down to
sleep in the open air. rain or shine, because a
house is too close-it makes his blood boil with
an intense furnace heat, and prevents his breath
ing freely. He avoids the fire in all seasons
in the dead of winter shelters himself only by an
open garret, without bed, or lodges in a cabin
in the woods; and in either case without fire
He can drink no drink stronger than water, and
his food is bakers bread and milk. Yet was
told but day or two since that he will do as
much labor as any two common men in the
same length of time. He regards all days alike,
as far as working is isconcerned, for work he must.
Men are allowed to do works Of mercy and chari-
ty on the Sabbath--he may be allowed to work
on the Sabbath, as an act of mercy to hmselffor
he can keep himself comparatively rational only
by working and exposure to all kinds of weather.
A WoRD TO LITTLE BoYs.-Who is respect
ed +? 1t is the boy who conducts himself well
who is honest, dilligent, and obedient in all
things. 1t is the boy who is making an effort
continually to respect his father, and to obey
him in whatever he may direct to be done. II
is the boy who is kind to other little boys, who
respects age, and never gets into difficulties and
quarrels with his companions. 1t is the boy
who leaves no effort untried to improve himself
in knowledge and wisdom every day who is
busy and active in endeavoring to do good acts
towards others. Show us boy who obeys his
parents, who is dilligent, who has respect for
age, who always has friendly disposition, and
who applies himself diligently to get wisdom,
and to do good towards others, and if he is not
respected and beloved by everybody then there
is no such thing as truth in the world. Remem-
Der this, little boys, and you will be respected
by others, and you will grow up and become
useful men. .s..'...'.........-....t ~.
