"A little house, well flIed; A little wife. well wiIled A little land well filled"

 Give me snug little farm, with sufficient learning; cheerful wife, that can milk the COW and rock the cradle, that can sleep all night and work ali day that can discourse music on the spinning wheel; and that can cook, wash, and tend the poultry and the dairy, instead of dress ing at the toilet, or playing on tho piano. The present times are too unnatural, fashionable and luxurious 7
 Our ancestors lived on bread and broth, And wOoed their healthy wives in home-spua
 cloth
 Our mothers, nurtured to the holding reel. Gave all their daughters lessons on the wheel; Though spinning did not much reduce the waist, It made their food much sweeter to the tasfel They piled with honesI zeal, the mop and broom, And drove the shuttle through the noisy loom. They never once complained, as we do now We have no girls to cook or milk the COW Each mother taught her Fec.chceked son and
 daughter
 To bake and brew, and draw pail of water; No damsel shnnned the wash-iub, broom or pail, To keep unsoiled a long grown fngcr-nail. They sought no gaudy dress, no wasp-like form, But ate to live, and worked to keep them warm, No idle yOuti-nO tighl-laced mincing fair, Became living corpse for want Ot air. Nc 6dgets, faintings, fits, or frighttut blues; Nc paInfpl corns from wearing Chinese shoes.

MONSTER SHIPs1r OIDEs DAS An article in tie Edinburg Journal, by Prof. Tenant. slates Inc dimensions of some of the large ships built by tlla ancienfs whence it appeared. that a ship cnnstruc> ted by Plolomeus Philopaser was 42O feet long. 56 feet bread. and "a fs. high from the keel to tue prov; md vas man- ned by four thousand rowers, four hun. dted servants. and two thousand eight hundred and twenty marines. Hero, King of Syracuse, caused to b built by Archias, tho Corinthian ahip-wFight, ua. der the supervision of ATchimedes, . vessel. which appeared to have been armed for war, and snmptuously fitted for . pleasure yacht, and yet was ul.i> rnately used to carry corn: tho dimen. si0ns were not recorded, but as there
 were twenty banks of oars. and three
 masts. the timber for the mainmast after being in vain sought for in Italy, being brought from England. and the cargo was sixty thousand measures of corn, besides vast quantities of provisions. etc. for the crew, the dimensions must have exceeded those of any ships ef slhe pre-. sent day; indeed. Hiero. finding lhas none of the surrounding harbors suilieed to receive his leyiAthan, loaded 1t with corn. and presented the vessel with iis cargo, to Plolemy. king Of Egypt. and on arriving at Alexandria, it was hauled ashore. and nothing more was recorded respecting it. Taking these dimensions as the basis for calculating tho tonnage, by the old law, or builders measurement the first named ship would measure 0445 tons. and NOah's Ark would have segisA tered II ,0O5. Soit seems that. after all
 we are only going back to the vast pro. portions Of the ancients.

4 RAILRoADLYRIc.

In Erie when the rails were low, ss. All quietly the cars did go; For each stopped by the great depot,
 Where pies and cakes sold rapidly. But Erie saw another sight
 When railroad kings, az was their right, Unawed by symptoms of fight,
 Laid the broad guage detcrminedly. By torch and boat-horn fast arrayed, Each rioter grasped his iroa spade, As furious locomotives neighed, A And snorted steam all heIplessly. Then fell the bridge, by axes riven, Then smashed the rails by sledges driven, And three official cheers were given
 By judges full of deviltry. Next morn. the pieman at the station Found he had missed his calcuialion- No passenger, though in starvation,
 Would spend one single ha'penny \ The combat deepened. Mayor brave, Thou vert to thine own wrath slave! And all the Union call'st ihee knave,
 Despite thy shallow sophissry. Soon at the bar of course will meet Thy rioters 90 indiscFeei,
 While " Yea! !" the iurymen repeat,
 When boiled for verdict, audibly!

01 Here is BARRY CORNWALL again with "Au. umn venes." Very sweet arc they: The summer past, what dreams are over The incense of the air hath fled: The carpets Of fife golden meadows Are torn by iempests, shred by shred: The rose hath lost her fragrance The lily hangs her head- Dead-dead!
 Sounds are in the earth, and other Sobs and murmurs half divine Blasts beyond Mans puny power Rock the branches of the pine; Yet one sweet thought bloometh Through the stormy time-- That thy heari is mine, And mine--ihine
 Shout. ye Winds and Thunders! P.,us your floods Of gloom! All must end in sunshine! ... That is still your doom;
 When the msidens May and April, In their vegdani loom,
 Weave bud and bloom.
 So, through wild November, And DecembeF's snow,
 will dream of beauty,
 Till the yioieis blow
 Ard, should pain beset mo, In this world heIow,
 Thou art near, know. lknOw !-I know!
