The Shaver's SoliIoouy.

To shave or not to shave! the question is,
Whether tits better on the human phiz,
To let accumulation Of our hair
Cover the chins and lips which now arc bare ::
or to continue still to scrape away
The hirsute ornament from day to day
To latherlDhave pcrchance to cash the facet
Ay, there's the rub; for, in this latter case
What misery ours 'Tis this must give us pause,
And make ns rather let alone our Jaws,
Than by continuance in the barbarous use
Cut, scratch, and lacerate them like tho deuce.
For if it actually were the case,
That Nature never meant the human face 3
10 be 80 teased and tortured rs it is
Ifso, I say, what business
Have mortals virtually to cry out q
mat Nature knew not what she was nboutl
Why, since the beard was evidently meant
10 grow. should men be seemingly intent
On trying to prove n Nature was n Ounce,
And didsnot know her tradcl Why not at once
Pluck out the eyebrows and extract the nails,
And shave the heads of females and of males 2
Strange It's that men should worship fashion so
AS to be willing thus to undergo
The pains of shaving, rather; than permit
Moustache and beard to grow rs they think fit.
How singular, that men should still delight,
In torturing their faces when they might
themselves their comfort, ease, and health
obtain ~
BY vowing they will never shave againl
But 'Sis the dread Of ridicule and scorn
Makes the foul fashion easy to be borne. '
Thus custom of us all doth towards make:
And for this savage custom, then, we take
The trouble and the pains our chins to NOV
Because it is thefashion to do So.
put thus our chIns will soon no more I hone
BE lathered DER with the pale suds Of SOAP.
Soons shall mustache and beard once more on all
Our ehlns wag merrily, in street and hall |

POETRY.

The Voice of the Grass.
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere;
BY the dusty roadside,
On the sunny illside,
Close by tho noisy brook,
In every shady nook,
como creeping. creeping everywhere.
Hore come creeping, smiling everywhere;
All round tho open door,
Where sit the aged poor,
Here where the children play,
In the bright and merry Nav,
I como creeping, creeping everywhere
Here como creeping, creeping everywhere;
In the noisy city street
My pleasant face you'll meet
Cheering the sick ut heart,
Toiling his busy part,
Silently creeping, creeping everywhere.
Here come creeping, creeping every where;
- You cannot see me coming
Nor hear my low sweet humming,
For in the starry night
And the glad morning light
come quietly creeping everywhere
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere
More welcome than the flowers,
In summers pleasant hours;
The gentle cow is glad,
And the merry birds not'sad
10 see me creeping, creeping everywhere.
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere;
When you're numbered with the dead
In your still and narrow bed
In the happy spring III come,
And deck your silent home,
Creeping, silently creeping everywhere
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere;
My humble song of praise
Most gratefully I raise
To Him ut whose command
beautify the land,
Creeping, silently creeping everywhere.

ted and swore at the saore" fiddle. The
passengers tried various expedients to rid
themselves of tho Hoosier and his fiddle;
it was no go-"he would fiddle Just as long
as he id please" At last, a big Kentucl-
ian sprang from his seat, saying 81 reckon
I'll fix him." placed himself near tho anna
teur fiddler, and commenced praying with
all his might.
The effect Of tho move was beyond des-
cription. Old Kcntuck braycd so loud that
he drowned the screeching of the fiddle,
and, amid tho shouts of the passengers, the
discomfitted 1Ioosicr retreated below, leaving
the victory of the unequal contest to the
Kcntuckian, and his singular inpromptu
imitation Of Balaam's friend. The delight
of the Frenchman knew no bounds-and
quiet was restored for the day. During the
night tho Kentuckian left tho boat. The
next morning after breakfast, the passengers
were startled by the discordant sounds of
their old ormcntor-Hoosier had discov-
cred that the coast was clear, and was bound
to revenge himself on the passengers. 20
Loud and worse than ever screamed the
fiddle. The Frenchman, just seated to read
his paper, on tho first sound, rose, looked
anxiously around, shrugged his shoulders,
and then shouted-"V is he7 Ware is
he? Queck! qucek! Mon Dteui Vare
