The Wife's Farewell to the Californian.

Fare thee we'll If still denied thee
BE the gucrdon of success.
Come to me, will not chidc thee,
Though the world may love thee less.
Thou hast battlcd long and boldly
With the adverse tide Of fate
While thy friends have met thee coldly,
Toiling early-toiling late.
Once again. for those that love thee,
Thou wOuld'st risk a desperate strife
May the God, who far above thee
Sees thee struggle, guard thy life.
Co and oft, as night hangs DER thee,
Gcmmcd with many a radiant star,
Think Of all the love | bore thee
Love that follows thee alar:
Think Of me when sad and lonely,
Sinking to thy nightly rest,
And in dreams I'll clasp thee only,
To a fond and widowed breast.
Fare thee we'll l sec thee turning
With a proud, reluctant eye;
Yield not now to fruitlcss ycarning-
God be with thee oh good by

HalloWed Memories.

When the battle is DER, and the sounds of igh
Have closed with the closing day
How happy around the watch-iirc light
To chat the long hours away.
To chat the long hours away. my boy,
And talk of the days to come,
Or better STILL and purtr Joy,
To thjnk of our G,r-oT home
How many a check VII then grow pale,
That never felt tear!
And many a stalw0rt heart will quail
That never quailcd in fear!
And the breast, that, like some mighty rock
Amid the toaming sea,
Bore high against the battles shock,
Now heayts like infancy.
And those who knew each other not,
Their hands together steal,
Each thinks of some long hallowed spot.
And all like brothers feel
Such holy thoughts to all are given,
The lowlicst has his part;
The love of homo, like love of heaven.
Is woven in our heart.

CHARITY. Night kissed the young rose,
and it bent softly to sleep. Stars shonc,
and pnre dew-drops hung upon its bosom,
and watched its sweet sumbcrS Morning
came with its dancing breczes, and they
whispered to the young rose, and it awake
joyous and smiling. Lightly it danced to
and fro in all the loneliness Of health and
youthful innocence. Then came the ardent
sun-god, sweeping from the east and smote
the young rose with It's scorching rays and
it tainted Deserted and almost hcart-brok-
en-, it dropped to the dust in IoycIncss and
despair Now the gentle breeze, which had
been gamboIing over the sea, pushing on the
homc-bound bark, sweeping over bill and
dale, by the neat cottage and the Still brook,
turning the old mill, flaming the brow OF
disease, and frisking the curIs OF innocent
childhood came tripping along on her er-
rands Of mercy and love, ana when she saw
the younp rose she fastened to kiss it, and
fondly bathcd its forehead in cool refreshing
showers. and the young rose revived and
looked and smiled in gratitude to the kind
breeze. but she hurried quickly away for
she soon perceived thata delicious fragrance
had been poured on her wings by the CRATE
fu rose and the kind breeze was glad in
heart, and went away singing through the
trees. Thus charity, like the breeze, gath
ers fragrance from the dropping flowers it
refreshes, and uncOnsciously reaps a reward
in the performance Of its Office of kindness,
which steals on the heart like rich perfume
to bless and to cheer

a New YORK paper in a description of
Greenwood Cemetery tells the following in
cidcnt:
One Of the curiosities Of the place is a
monument of a sea-captain who is still liy-
ing. The old gentleman brought with him
from Italy piece Of marble and an artist.
On arriving at home he set his artist at work
cutting his piece Of marble into fac-simile
Of himself in the act Of taking an obserya-
tion of the sun with quadrant. The sue
cess of the artist was complete The eccen-
trio captain bought lot in Greenwood, had
a suitable pedestal made, and placed his mar
bic self upon it, thus building his own mon
ument. lie frequently visits his grave, and

"WuAlING"- few years since, ere
" California broke OUT to speak of catching
a whale suggested a thousand dangers and
hair breadth escapes through which those
engaged in the trade were supposed to
pass. We pictured the isolated ship a
thousand miles from tcffa Frma, hcaying
and tossing" upon the tumultuous bosom Of
old ocean-thought Of the lonely crew, whose
eyes for long and weary months rested upon
no objects save the broad cXpansc Of waters
aud the blue arch Of hcayen-of grim dis
ease, and the storm-Gend whose angry breath
in a single moment scatters into fragments
the irai bark whose pIanks arc the only
bars which divide the time and eternity"
Of poor Jack But it turns out, after all,
that whaling, if anything, is rather pleas
ant way for lazy tar to kill timc--that
it don't require half as much courage to go
on blubering' cruise rs it does to remain
on shore and perform good, honest hard
days work at almost any trade or calling
The Crescent City UcraM, in speaking Of
the operations Of the Whaling Company of
that town, who have recently caused several
monsters to reAder up their accounts, and
from which hundreds Of barrels Of oil were
taken, says -" This whaling in our bar
Dor affords good opportunity for amateur
sportsmcn from San Francisco to enjoy them
selves. Come up here, gentlemen, you can
either sit quietly on shore, and while enjoy
ing the fumes Of a good cigar, can witness
all the exciting scenes pertaining TO the
whale fishery or you can take a seat in one
of the boats and enjoy a ride of few hours
at railroad speed and return to comfortable
quarters again" Only think of catching
whales in harbOr

MoUNrAINs-N Mountains are, to the rest
of the earth, what muscular action is to the
body of man. The muscles and tendonS Of
its anatomy are, in the mountains, brought
not with force and conyulsiye energy, fail
of expression, passion and strength the
plains aud lower hills are the rcpose, ard
the ellortcss motion Of the frame, when its
muscles lie dormant and concealed beneath
the lines Of its beauty, yet ruling those lines
in their every uudulation, This, then, is
the FIRST grand principle of the truth Of the
earth. The spirit of the hills is action
that Of the lowlhnds rcposc and between
these there is TO be found every variety of
motion and Of rest from the inactive plain,
sleeping like the armament, with cities for
stars, to the fiery peaks, with which heaying
bosoms and eXulting limbs, with the clouds
drifting like hair from their bright forehe0ds,
lifting up their Titan hands to heaven, say
ing, live forever w-RpsLia.

IIERoIsM OF YOUNG LADY.-Thc Boston

nifty and sublimty Of poetry She was tray-
cling under the protection of her friend and
ncighbor, Mr.. Pritchard and when danger
was imminent she turned to him. g Sir, take
care of Mrs. Pritchard ; can swim."-
Thus saying, She trippcd forward, with a
mind composed and determination fixed,
and passed over the side Of the burning YES
sci. The distance from the shore was then
over a mile but shc--roying upon her own
strength and courage and being unwilling
to embarrass others who might have dearer
charces-;M ",icrtook to save herself She
swan mile and bccan, exhausted. A good
boatman observing that she failed, pushed
to her relief and succeeded in reaching her
in time. He took her into his skin' and
landed her safely. She, in a transport OF
JOY, and true to that nature, which is always
grand, rewarded him with a gift more pre-
cious to his manly heart than gold" We
suppose that last is the romantic way of say

A PERSIAN PRINCEss.--l went to see the
Shah's half sister, beautiful girl of fifteen,
who lived with her mother in an obscure
part of the ante-room, neglected by the
Shah, and consequently by every one else
She was really lovely, fair, with indescriba-
bic eyes, and n figure cquaIcd by some Of
the chiefs d'euyrc of Italian art This is 50
rare among Persian women, that she was
one of the few persons | saw in the country
with an approach to good figure. She
was dressed in the usual luShion of trousers
on trousers, the last pair being of such stiff
brocadc that if put standing upright in the
middle of u room they would remain Her
hair was curlcd, hot plated. and she was
literally covered with diamonds. She was
quiet in her manner, and seemed detected.
the was most anxious to hear about Euro
pcan customs What seemed to surprise
her most was that We took the trouble to
mdrcsS every night when going to bed and
she asked me was it true We put on Il long
white dress to pass the night in Z All Per-
sian women are astonShcd at this custom,
and are quite unable TO account for it,
They never undrcsS ut night they unite
their thin mattress from its slIkcn cover,
draw it out from its place against the wall,
and roll themselves up in the waddcd quilt
which forms their blanket The only time
they change their clothes is when they 60 to
bath. If they 90 out to visit, they, Of
course, put on their best garments, and take
them off at night but generally they lie
down just as they are, and even in cold
weather they wear their chadoor, or out Of
door veil, at night

SwIFTs HATRED OF FopPERY. Dean Swift
was a great enemy to extravaganza in dress,
and particularly to that distinction and os-
tcntation in the middling classes which led
them to make an appearance above their
condition in life OF his mode of reproying
this folly in those persons for whom he bad
an esteem, the following instance has been
recorded:
When George Faulkner, the printer, re-
turned from London, where he had been So
licitng subscriptions for his edition of the
Deans works, he went to pay his respects
to him, dressed in lace waistcoat, bagged
wig and other foppcrieS. Swift received him
on his arrival with the same ceremonies as if
he had been a stranger And pray, sir"
said he, "what are your commands with
me ?'
II thought it was my duty, sir,' replied
George, " to await Oh you Immediately on
my arrival from London
"Pray, sir, who are You ~
George Faulkner, the printer sir.'
Iou George Faulkner, the printer +
Why you are the most impudent barcfaccd
scoundrel Of an imposter have ever met
with George Faulkner is a plain, sober
citizen and would never trick himself up in
lace and other fopperies Get you gone,
you rascal, or | will Immediately send you
to the house Of correction.
Away went George as fast as he could,
and having changed his dress, he returned
to the dcanery, where he was received with
the greatest cordiality.
My friend George" says the Dean, "
am glad to see you returned safe from Lon
don. Why, there has been an inpudent
fellow with me just now, dressed in lace
jacket, aud he would fam pass himself off
for you, but | soon sent him away with a
