THE DEAD BOY.

BY HENRY A.. CLARK.
With gentle breezes came the spring,
And earth S first buildings promised bloom,
And hope renewed they seemed to bring,
And half-reclosed the waiting tomb.
A softer light dwelt in those eyes,
That long were sadly on thee cast,
As rose who watch the flower that dies,
Whose stem is broken by the blast.
Oh ! who may know the mighty power
That Hope builds up within the heart,
That stands until the latest hour,
Until the feeblest ibres part?
1t seemed thou vert too young to die
Why should the fearful conqueror Death
q Pass ready age, and weary, by,
To steal thy young and joyous breathe
Why choose for his remorseless stroke
The fair young tree, so fresh and new,
And spare the old decaying oak,
Whose life had worn century through
Alas we know not we but know
The oft-repeated lesson taught,
That hope, love, life, and all must go,
While Gods great mysteries are wrought
We know that in the stern fixed round
His vast, eternal systems take,
The sun of earthly things is found,
Like waves that beat the shore and break.
And tits glorious thought for man,
That in that after-life we dread,
His spirit-mind shall freely scan
Those fearful mysteries, now unread!
And thou art laid to rest, young boy!
The grave-clods press upon thy brow,
And earth has less of love and Joy
TO those who sadly mourn thee now.
The skies were dark, the storm was wild,
Winter renewed his grasp on Spring.
Sad Nature wept with those, fair child,
Who Joined for thee their sorrowing.
But brighter skies shall gladden. earth,
lbed airs more soft and mild shall be,
And brighter hopes shailyet have birth
In hearts that now are torn for thee
For thou shalt come to them in dreams,
With whisperings from the spirit-land,
And oft when nights star radiance CLEANS,
Thy form shall seem by them to stand,
Not in the semblance earth had given,
Ere the freed spirit cast its clod,
But robed in beauty, born of heaven,
And radiant from the throne of God.
Chicago, (W.,) June, 1855.

liz Would PEEP.-Joe Dovetsil had q
wife, a ,ong minded wife. She looked on
Joe as a sor, Of necessary evil, treating him
very much as the lady did her husband on
the Nor,h River steamboat, who ventured
10 ohiec. to some Of her arrangements for
travel, when she shut him up suddenly by
telling him. in the hearing Of dozen pss-
sengers, why, wha. is it you? II ! had
known you were going 10 act 80, would
no, have brough. you along" But Joe and
Mrs. Dove,sil never travelled. They were
always al home, though Joe was rarely seen
there or elsew here. She had long trained
him to The hsbi. Of retiring under the bed
when company called, and so familiar had
he become with that retreat, that it was a
question whether. in default Of personal SER
vice, warning 10 a militia training would
hold him, unless left under ,ha, bed as be-
ing his s'Iast usual place of abode" Dur
ing the stay of Mrs. Joe's friends, he occa-
sionally thrust out his head like q turtle, but
one glance Of the loving eye OF his spouse
would send him under with cold shivers
running up his back. One day ss she was
hobn obbing over the fire with friend and
a social glass, Joe ,hrus. ou, his figure head,
and defied the shakes and ftowns Of his wife,
till. growing valIisn. and desperate, he sang
ou, :-"My dear, you may shake your hesSi
Just as you please, bu, as long $3.50

A New WAY TO Cook CHIcKENs.-Th

when done make shickening Of cream and
flour, adding piece Of butter and pepper
and salt: have made and baked q psir Of
