CoNUNDRUMs.-Ol Hurricane says: Talk
ing of conundrums, can any of you tell when
a ship may be said to be in love? i can
tell can snapped out Little Turtle. It's
when she wants to be manned' Just missed

again. Who speaks first? 4 do, secondly,

The question is still OPEN when she's a

Come, hurry alongp when she makes

Here there was great groan and Smash
pipes was thrown out of the window. When
peace was restored, old Hurricane propelled
again. "You might have said, when she
hugs the wind, or when she runs down for
q smack, or when she's after a consort' or
something of the sort. But it wouldn't have
been right The real solution is-when she
is attached 10 bpog" That's it, said Smash

From the GOLDEN ERA
Spring.

Spring is waking! Spring is waking!
From her couch with gold o'erspread,
Present from the morning breaking
Lifts her fairy fower-spread head /;
While beneath the orange sleeping,
Winter from the hillside weeping,
Through the valley hast'ning fed.
Spring is coming, Spring is coming;
Even now she's on the wing:
Hark the birds her songs are humming,
Tuning for her welcoming.
She will bring us happy hours,
Robes of green and fairest flowers.
Budding boughs and blossoming.
Spring is coming with her pleasures,
Bringing gems of purest worth
Natures lap is full of treasures,
Coming she to bid them forth
On the heart her warm smiles falling,
Seems IA voice from Heaven, calling
Hidden goodness into birth.
Spring is coming while she slumbered,
Nature from the jeweled night,
Gathering robes of hues unnumbered,
Gave them to the newborn light
Bidding change to laughing gladness
Every form of fearful sadness
Left by winter in its flight.
Vcrdant grows the rugged mountain;
Niolcts strew the smiling mead,
Lilies slumbcr at the fountain,
Sings the brook from bondage freed.
O'er the fields, the fresh air bringing,
Voices come from farmers singing,
Speed the plough-share, ever speed =
Welcome spring time welcome ever!
Life has but single spring,
Carried down its troubled river,
Fondest memories round thee cling
Meath thy smiles the seed is scattered,
BY thy parting tear-drops watered,
May the autumn harvest bring.

A BEAUTIFUL TRIBUTE TO A WFE.-Sir
James Macintosh the historian, was mar
ried in early life, before he attained fortune
or fame, to Miss Catherine Stuart, young
Scotch lady, distinguished more for the eX-
cellcncc of her character than her charms
After eight years of happy welded life,
during which she became the mother of three
children, she died. A few days after her
death, the bereaved husband wrote to a
friend depicting the character of his wife in
the following terms:
L was guided in my choice only by the
blind affection of my youth. l found an in
telligcnt companion and tender friend, a
prudent monitrcss, the most faithful of wives,
and mother as tender as children ever had
by the tender management ofmy weaknesses,
gradually corrected the most perniciouS of
them. She became prudent from affections
and thought of the most generous nature
She was taught frugality and economy by
her love for me. She gently reclaimed me
from dissipation; she proppcd my weak and
irresolutc nature; she urged my Incidence to
all the cXertions that have been useful and
credtable to me, and she was perpetually at
hand to admoniSh my heedlcssncSs or i'm
providence. To her | ore lohdterCr lam; 10
her lchaterer / shall be-. In her solicitude for
my interest she never for moment forgot
my feelings or my character. Even in her
occasional resentment, for which | but too
often gave her cause, (would to God could
recall those moments!) she had no sulenness
nor acrimony. Her feelings were warm and
impetuous; but she was placable, tender and
constant. Such was she when | lost her.
when her excellent natural sense was rapid
ly improving, after eight years struggle and
distress had bound us fast together, and
moulded our tempcrs to each other; when a
knowledge Of her worth had refined my
youthful love into friendship, and before age
had deprived it of much of its original ardor
| lost her, alas! the choice of my youth, the
partner of my misfortuncs, at moment
when I had the prospect of her seeing my
better day.'-H0me Jou1aal

afternoon S work, reached his ear, that he took
up his basket and as he RECALLED himself with its
contents, he thought he had never eaten q
sweeter repast
The shadow of the stake had long passed the
second, and little Melody left the mossy rock,
and cheerlully resumed his task; but the stones
seemed so much lighter, and the song of the
birds fell SO .cheeringly on his ear, that his
work was done, and the day nearly passed, be-
fore he had even thought of WEAKNESS.
The little Fairy seemed still gliding around
him, and her thrilling tones chined with the
voices of the feathered warblers, filling the air
with harmony, that was but the echo of the
music within the breast of the nowjoyous child.
he took up his dinner Basees..f = On his home
ward way, he carefully placed in it the blue
edged violet; and after lingering moment, as
if he half expected to see the white dress and
mild eye of the Fairy, he returned to the farm
house.
If the Fairy did not visit the happy dreams
of little Melody that night, it was because her
mission has been fulfilled; and he felt her pres
ence, and gentle influence, ever after in his
heart.
Pleasantly and chearfully passed the days
for contentment sweetened every cup of grief,
and gave keener zest to the many blessings
which bounteous providence showered on the
head of the greateful orphan.

had taken no such liberties with him andit. The
insertion Of ones name so near the obituary
head is bad enough, even when justified by the
fact but to place it there in joke is teo bad en-
tirely. We set about, therefore, to examine the
queer nomenclature of this matrimonial an
nouncement. The name of the Catholic priest
at Calain, is Rev. Eugene Vetromile, born an
Italian The printer came within one letter of
spelling it right Maudlin is a corruption
of Madeleine, the French form of Magdelene
Father Rasle, born q Frenchman, was wont to
confer his country's names in baptism. The
beautiful one of Madeleine is corrupted in pro-
nunciation into Maudlin! OF the etymology of
Witch we learn nothing. Peol is the Abnaki
pronunciation of the French name PIERRE, (Pe-
ter,) as pronounced in two syllables, the Indi-
ans always substituting the sound of for that
Off. Toma is the French name which we write
Thomas. So the marriage is veritable, and the
names have history in them. The reflections
that might arise on contrasting the old wigwam
and wampum wooing of the Indian lover with
his later Eatrimony that is announced as taking
place Sin this city," and by a" Rev." we
must leave to our more poetical contemporaries.

An ABORIGINAL Marriage

Mr. Peol Toma, whose name was given by DR..
Hamlin to one of the species of Salmon, a brave
and intelligent man and great hunter, has ia
ken on the silken chains of matrimony. We
found the event announced in Calais paper in
the queer orthography that follows -
MARRIED, in this city, on Sunday evening
last, by Rev. Father Vetromild, Mr.. Peol To-
nah and Miss Maudlin Witch, both of the Pas
samaquoddy tribe Of Indians" !"
From the singular name of the Clergyman
thus printed, as well as the still more strange
name of the bride, we were suspicious that the
announcement was bit of waggery intended
to convey the moral lesson that Peol had gone
down to Calais Of a Sunday night, where he
had drawn it verymild, but nevertheless had
SO hugged that witch, the bottle, that between
the recollection of the wrongs of the Indian and
potations of whiskey, he had become maudlin
This was, however, contrary to all that we had
heard of Toma, and since his name is to live r
science, we were anxious to know that waggery

Who IS TO BE HER HUSBAND Says a politi-
cal article" The great problem is to find
suitable husband for the Princess Amelia, now
scarce fifteen years old, and the eldest daughter
of Queen Victoria-a husband, who, in the pres
ent complication of affairs, will best serve the
interests Of England and be most acceptable to
her allies. Three candidates for this post have
already presented themselves, who although
they are all equally unexceptionable in point of
character and position, represent separate politi-
cal combinations. The first was Victor Eman-
ual, King of Sardinia whose consort died but a
few months since. Negotiations were opened
Immediately after her death, but were not conclu-
ded when the Prince Frederick of Prussia, twen-
tyfour years of age, and eldest son of the Prince
of Prussia (brolher of the King, and heir to the
throne of the Hoheuzolerns) appeared in Lon
don, prepared to test the pretensions of his be-
reaved rival, in person. Although the preferen-
ces of the British court and their former plans
favored him, the decided opposition of the Eng
lish people, and particularly of the English press
on account of the neutral, or, more properly
speaking, the philo. Russian attitude of the Prus-
sian government in the Eastern question, obliged
him to withdraw and make room for third can,
didate, who not only is of greater political i'm
portance just now, but stands higher in the favor
of the public in England. This is the Prince
Napoleon, son of Jerome, ex-king of West.
