A man who does not claim to be a
Judge of swine, says: "Last spring |
bought a little pig out Of a drove, and
he was good for eating, but wouldn't
grow much. He got so after week
or two, that he would eat large
bucket full at a time, and then, like
Oliver Twist, call for more. Well,
one morning carried out bucket
full of dough, and after he had swal-
lowed it all, Ipicked up the pig and
put him in the same bucket | had fed
him from and the little e,sss didn't fill
1t half fuN."

Cbuite purtrq-
Tears of Tenderness.

How beautiful to gaze upon
The arch that Iris builds;
And yonder trembling streamlet fair,
Which Soils bright radiance gilds;
But are they half as beautiful,
And seem they half as meet, /"
As are the tears of tenderness A7
y That deck the fair young cheek2
Whom lfe-storms cast the pillows
Of the spirit waters Ger,
1t must be that their glitpring pearls
Be washed upon the shore:
Yet may they never. never glow
On youthful cheeks, I pray;
But oh, the tears of tenderness,
How beautiful are they!
The vain may bind the loveliest wreath:
About the brow that's fair; 81
And they may hide the richest gems
Among the glossiest hair;
And eyes may vie with yonder stars
That pierce nights sable pail;
And yet the tears of tenderness
Are brighter than them all.
Iof a mystic river dreamed.
All lined with golden sand,
That glowed like fairy jewels laid
Upon its flower-decked strand;
And so the human heart should be,
And, flowing evermore.
Be casting up the golden sand,
To deck the rosy shore.

three months Of incessant labor, the

GLEANINGS FROM PAPERS,
With Editorial SprinklingS.

The French journals are compelled
to admit that there is a deficiency in
the crops of that country. They have,
concealed the fact as long as it was
possible to do so-but they are now
unwillingly forced to avow it. The
Moniteur of the Goth September says
that the crops will be one-twelfth snort,
while the Courier des Etats Unis, the
French journal in New York, says
the deficit will be at least one-fourth.
In view of these admissions, and the
corresponding shortness of the crops
in Great Britain, and the cutting Oft
of the supplies from the East, it is falr
to presume that the demand for our
breadstufls will be much greater than
usual. The prospect is very good
one for prices fully equal to the high
est that prevailed last year.
RUSSIAN DIscIpLINE.-Hexthausen
relates the following:
When the palace of the Emperor
at st. Petersburg was burnt a few
days ago,a Greek Priest, at the imnn-
nent risk of his life, rushed through
the burning apartment to save a cru
cifix from a private chapel. On bis
return, he was hailed by a sentinel,
who had been stationed at the door
and forgotten. s'Save yourself" cried
the priest, cor you are lost. Il
can't, SIR was the reply, @for | have
not been relieved; | call you to give
me your blessing" The priest gave
his benediction, and the sentry died
at his post.
Professor Brocklesby has written
an account of the frozen wells ol
Oswego, N. Y, which, although very
deep, freeze in the latter part of the
winter and remain frozen till July
while in September the water be,
comes too warm to drink. Seyera
causes are suggested for this singular
phenomena, but none that seen
adequate to its explanation, unless Il
be the suggestion that the wells are
connected with pond in the vicin
ity, and partake Of its temperature.
The Albany Atlas says that Oh
Tuesday man buying oats gave I
ffty dollar bill IN mistake for a i've
On discovering bis blunder, he hur
ried up his cakes, sand finally found th'
man be bought the oats Of, rubbing
out the so" on the bill, to make hl
cash account "square" with his funds
An exchange of a FIVE for the MY
WAS made. and the face of the bill
saved from the defacement 1t was un
dergoing.
A suit was brought in Chleag
some months since to recover dam
ages sustained in consequence OF tn
sidewalk being out Of repair, and
verdict of S3, 200 obtained. This wa
set aside and a new trial granted
which came of few days since
The jury being unable to agree, th
parties consented to accept the vel
dict of the eleven agreeing Jurors
which proved to be $4,000 damage
for the plaintiff!

Attorney General Cushing has de-
cided that the constitutional right Of
a citizen of the United States to
reclaim a fugitive from his lawful
service, extends not only to the
States and to the organized terrific
ries, but also to all unorganized
territorial possessions Of the United
States. If in such territory there be
commissioners Of the United States
to act, the claimant may proceed by
recapture without judicial process.
