Beautiful Extract.

When the summer Of youth is slowly
wasting away on the nightfall of age, and
the shades Of the past becomes deeper and
deeper, and life wears to It's close, it is
pleasant to look through the vista OF
time upon the sorrows and felicities of
our earliest years. If we have home to
shelter, and hearts to rejoice with us, and
friends have been gathered together
around our fresides, then the rough place
Of wayfaring will have been worn and
smothered away in the twilight Of life,
while the many spots we have passed
through will grow brighter and more
beautiful. Happy indeed are they whose
intercourse with the world has notchang.
ed the tone of their holier feelings, or
broken those musical chords of the heart;
whose vibrations are SO melodious, so
tender and so touching in the evening of
aGe.

amongst us, and has endangered to bring
on the. inhabitants Of our frontiers, the
merciless Indian savages, whose known
rule Of warfare is an undistinguished des-
i truction of all ages, sexes, and conditions.
In every stage of these expressions, we
have petitioned for redress in the most
humble terms. Our repeated petitions
have been answered only by repeated in
jury. A prince, whose. character is thus
marked by every act which may define a
tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of free
people.
Nor have we been wanting in attention
to our British brethren. We have warn
ed them, from time to time Of the at
tempts by their legislature, to extend an
unYarrantable jurisdiction over us. We
have reminded them of the circumstances
of our emigration and settlement here
We have appealed to their native Justice
and magnanimity and we have conjured
them, by the ties of our common kindred
to disayow these usurpations, which would
Inevitably interrupt our connections and
correspondence. They, too, have been
deaf to the voice of justice and of consan-
guinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce
in the necessity which denounces our
separation, and hold them as we hold the
rest of mankind, enemies in war, in peace,
! friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of
the United States of America, in General
Congress assembled, appealing to the Su-
preme Judge of the world for the recti-
tude of our intentions, do, in the name,
and by the authority of the good people
of these colonies, solemnly publish and
declare that these United Colonies are,
and of right ought to be, free and indie
pendent States that they are absolvcd
from all allegiance to the British crown,
and that all political connection between
them and the state of Great Britain is,
and ought to be, totally dissolved and
that as free and independent States, they
have full power to levy war, conclude
peace, contract alliances, establish COM
merce, and to do all other acts ard things
which independent States may of right do.
And, for the support of this declaration,
with firm reliance on the protection of
Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to
each other our lives, our fortunes, and
our sacred honor.

A CURIOUS CIRCUMSTANCE

As once was walking DER mead and lea,
A curious circumstance happened to me;
A huntsman saw in the forests brake,
He rode up and down beside a lake,
And many deer few past the spot;
But what did the huntsman ?-he shot them not
He blew his horn by the forest green;
Now tell me, good people, what could that mean2
And as | walked on along the shore,
curious circumstance happened once more
Tn a little bark fisher-maid ~
Rode eer by the side of the forest glade;
In the twilight the fishes around her shot
But what did the maiden ?-she caught them not
She sang song by the forest green;
Now tell me, good people, what could that mean2
Retracing my steps at evenings fall,
The most curious circumstance happened of all;
riderIess horse stood in the brake,
An empty skiff reposed on the lake,
And passing the grove of alders there,
What heard therein IA wispering pair
The moon shone brightly, the night was serenes
Now tell me, good people, what could that meant

On Buena Vistas bloody field soldier dying lay,
His thoughts were of his mountain home some thou
sand miles away
He calld comrade to his side, and said, What
now say
Convey to ASHLAND, happy spot, where no more
shall stray.
My father, eomrads, you will tell about this bloody
fray
His countrys Standard say to him was safe with me
this day;
I've made pillow Of it, now, on which I've laid my

Eli sit with him beneath the oak that shades his
cottage door;
Bat tell that tin1eworn patriot that mindful of his
fame,
On Buena vista's battle field sulfed not his name
My mothers form is with me now-her wall is in
my ear,
And drop by drop flows my blood, so flows from
her the tear;
Then OH when you convey to her the tidings of this
day,
Speak softly, Victor, softly speak what you shall
have to say.
Speak not to her in hurried tones, the blighting
news you bear,
The chords of life might snap too soon, SO comrade

am her only cherished son. but tell her that died
Rejoicing that she taught young to take my coun-
try's side.
"But, Victor, there's another, fain would look
upon,-
She lives upon the sloping hill that oyerooks the
lawn;
he lawn where shall never more in springtime's
pleasant hours,
Go forth with her in merry mood to gather woodland
flowers.
Tell her when death was on my brow and life re-
ceding fast,
Her voice, her form, her parting words, were with
me to the last;
And that knew she thought of me while welterins
1 lay,
On Buena Vista's bloody field some thousand miles
away"

The Twelve Pound Chunk"

A returned Californian relates the fol-
lowing good one:
The landlord Of hotel, built of boards.
and located near the Tekulk Diggins was
presented by his wife with fine twelve
pound boy, which coming to the ears of
a wag, he circulated the story that the
host found twelve pound chunk" which
ran like wild fire through the place, and
caused quite an excitement. A few weeks
afterwards miner from another quarter
having heard of the twelve pound chunk"
arrived at the hotel and at once made an
plication to the landlady for lodging
Her husband being absent, she attended
to the guest when the following converse
ton took place. which should be prefaced
by the remark that the story had exploded
several days before his arrival, and the
landlady had enjoyed the sell with the
rest
1t was your husband, ma'am, wasn't
it, who got the twelve pound chunk"
He had some help, l believe, replied
she, with sly laugh.
:. :" Yes l 'spose so. Where was he
digging ~
Oh, that's a secret"
Yes, | 'spose it is, replied the miner.
f" He thinks he'll get another there, don't
he 2"
II don't know what he thinks, but (
know he won't"
. shouldn't think Improbable, although
it's possible"
so they say"
The miner here paused awhile, and. 81
last, after SEINE reflection, he said I:
" s'pose the chunks gone, amt it?"
"Oh, no, it's in the other room. Would
you like to see it ?"
"Well, I should d, ; but faint laying
mot exactly" said the landlady, throw
ing open the door, for there it is in the
CRADLE"
The miner bent over, when pair of
chubby fists were extended, and giving the
jolly landlady one look, he left for parts
unknown.

CHARLES TWELFTH.
TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH, BY HENRIE
A. KENDALL.

One day when Charles the Twelfth, haC
dictated his Secretary to write some let
tiers, a bomb fell on the house which pierced
the roof and burst out near the chamber
even Of the King; half Of the floor fell in
pieces.
The cabinet where the King dictated
was wrought out in wall, and received
no shock. The fragments which flew in
the air, carried away part Of the room
when door was opened.
At the noise of the bomb, and the crash
OF the house which seemed to fall, the pen
dropped from the hand Of the Secretary
What is the matter" said the king with
a tranquil air. "Why do you not write9'
"Ah, sire, the bomb p "Well," replied
the King, what has that to do in com
mon with the letter which l dictated ?

But one sweet rose among them,
Far fairsr than the rest,
Bloomed longer on its parent stem,
And shed its fragrance best.

The Genuine Yankee Doodle.

Several versions of Yankee Doodle are circulate
mong the press; but so far, they vary more or lie
rom the genuine original. Having taken some pal
n the investigation of the case, we believe ourselv
in presenting the following, as near Il
cal Simon Pure as any eXtant:
Fayther and went deown to camp
Long with Major Goodin; t-a
And there we see the men and boys
AS thick as hasty puddin.
Andsthere was Captin Washanton,
With gentle folks about him
They say he's grown so tar7sal proud,
He will not ride Without EN-.
They got him on his meetin clothes,
Upon a s1appin stallion,
He set the world along in rows,
In thousands and in millions.
The fanain ribbons in his hat,
@ They looked so tearin fea,
l wanted pocAily to get,
To give to our Jenima.
And there they had a Saoampin gun,
As large as log of maple,
Upon a deuced little cart
A load for Jfaytters cattle.
And every time they fired it off,
asE 1t took horn of peoaoder;
1t made noise like .faytters gun,
Only nation leouder.
went as near to it myself
AS Slabs usde,pinin;
But taytter went as nigh agin-
I thought the deuce was in him.
Cousin Simon grew SO bold,
l thought he would have cooked it;
1t scared me so that sneaked off,
And hung by tayther's pocket.
And Captin Davis had gun,
He kinder clapt his hand ont:
And stuck crooked stabbin iron
8 Upon the little esnd ont
And there see a pVstkis,-shell,
AS big as mothers basin;
And every time they touched it off,
They scampered like the nation.
ana there see Darrel TOO,
Its heads were made of leather;
They knoct upont with little clubs,
To call the folks together.
And there l see a snarl of men,
A drggi@ graves they told me;
So tGrnal long, so tar9aal deep,
They tended they should hold me.
1t scared me so, hooked it off,
Nor stopt, as / remember,
Nor turned about tiff got huna
Loot fast in mothers chamber.
The following verses seem to have sprung sint
rom fertile genius, and as curiosity. we pul
sh them; but the old settlers who used to sing Il
une and words, do not recognize them as genuine
And there they'd fire aacay like fun,
And play on coaastock fddles,
And some had ribbands red as blood,
And acoGnd about their middIes.
The troopers too would gallup up
And fire right in our faces;
1t scared me almost half to DEATH
To see them run such races.
Old Uncle Sam come there to change
Some pancakes and some onions,
For lasses cakes to carry ham
To give his wife and young 'uns.
But can't tell you half see,
They kept up SIGH smother;
So took my hat of-made beosc,
And scampered huns to mother.

Did you pluck the flowers where the gray old rock
Doth frown on the brow of the hill
Where we wandered once-by the path we took
That crossed the green meadow and rill?

Where they drank in the morning dew
They looked, as did we, on the lake It's enough,
That sister, they came from you,

Was in bud-may it blossom fair:
Though our e-paths diverge and we meet here-uher

But perennial bloom in its light and its shade,
Till thou list to the summons, come"
