A GOLDEN THoUGHT.--Naturc

A GOLDEN THOUGHT. will be
reported. All things are engaged in wri-
ting their own history. The planet and
the reptile goes attended by its shadow.
The rolling rock leaves its scratches Oh
the mountain side the river, its channels
in the soil the animal, its bones in the
statum the fern and leaf, their modest
epitaph in the coal. The falling drof
makes its sepulchre in the sand or stone !:
not foot steps into snow or along the
ground, but prints in characters more -cf
less lasting, map of its march every
act of the man inscribes itself on the mem
ories of his fellows, and in his own face.
The air is full of sound----the sky oftokens.
the ground is all memoranda and sigma
lures, and every object is covered over
with hints that speak to the intelligence.

WOMEN SHOULD SHUN Men OF BAD
CHARACTER.-Did women feel the re-
sponsibility of the station she holds in So
ciety-did she feel how much she is the
arbitress of mans destinies on earth, nay,
even beyond it how different would she act!
Instead Of dispensing her smiles equally
on the worthy and unworthy, she would
show by her discountenance of vice, how
hateful it was to her; no matter how tai
ented man was, how graceful in his man
ners, or pleasing in person, unless virtue
was the guiding star of his conduct, she
should Danish him from her presence, as
being unworthy of breathing the same air
with her; she would shrink from his soce-
ty as she would shun noxious reptile
Is such the case' No. No matter wha. a
mans vices, if he is handsome, brilliant in
conversation, and versed in arts of flattery
all the smiles and attentions are lavished
on him, that ought to be bestowed only on
the virtuous; while the man who is endow-
ed with every good quality that can rem
der himself estimable, II walking in the
snowy requirements Of society, is treated
with the utmost Indifference; this gives
rise to the too generally received opinion
that, the worse man is, the more agreea-
bic he is to woman. Can it then be won
dercd at, that, TO meet her in society, win
her affection by thousand nameless at
tentions; slight them when won, is the
pastlme of an hour to those honeyed fat
terers, those destroyers OF woman's happi-
ness, who, Ike gilded serpent, captives
but to annihilate. Were they regarded
as the pests of society, instead of being
treated as its ornaments, the race would
disappear. Emerson.

A worthy old farmer residing in the Vi

worried by his boarders. They found fault

one of the boarders. eyes ken cat a
crow "Bet you hat,' said the guest.
The bet was made, the crow caught and
nicely roasted, but before serving up, they
contrived to season it with a good dose of
Scotch snuff. Isaac sat down to the crow.

In neighboring Ci:y, at Thackcray s
lecture few evenings since, young gen
tlcman- the modest man Of hls sex, and
no less polite than modest, was sitting IL
pew rather remote from the light. A
pretty lady sat next to him Looking or
the floor during the lecture, he espicd
what he thought was the lady's handker
chief, the lace trimmed edge Just visibia
from under her dress. Turning to hi
pewmate CALAMITY whispered, "Y You'va
dropped your pocket handkerchief, mad
am!' and before she could reply she pre-
ceeded to pick it up. Horror! he had
seized the edge Of her pet-skirt- di Z
not discover his mistake until the top of :.
galter boot stared him in the face, and the
faint sound Of a laugh just nipped in the
bud by the application Of real handker
chief, warned him of his mistake 'Phap-
sy his fcelinks." MoRAL.-Don't. attempt
to pick up anything with lace to it before
you know what it is.
Il wonder what has become ofthe snuf-
fers ~ said Mrs johnson. II have been
looking for them all the evening and can i
find them high or low" Nobody can give
any information. After while the hi. ed
Dutchman, getting sleepy, commenced
pulling OF his boots, preparatory to going
to bed. "All dis day." said he, "tink I
got some grabble stones in my poot. /

his boot and poured out the snufers.

ROBERT EMMETT AND HIS BR1DE.-Twas
the evening of a lovely day-the last day
fer the noble and ill-fated Emmett. a
young lady stood at the castle gate, and
desired admittauce into the dungeon. She
was closely yelled, and the keeper could
not imagine who she was, nor why one of
such proud bearing should be suppliant
at the prison door. However, he granted
the boon--led her to the dungeon, opened
the massive iron door, then closed it again,
and the lovers were alone. He was lean
ing against the prison wall, with down.
cast head, and his arms were folded upon
his breast. Gently she raised the veil
from her face, and Emmet turned to gaze
upon all that earth contained for him-the
girl whose sunny brow, in the days Of boy
hood, had been his polar star-the maiden
who had sometimes made him think sthe
world was all sunshine" The clanking of
the heavy chains sounded like death-knell
to her ears, and she wept like child; En-
met said but little,ye he pressed her warm
ly to his bosom, and their feelings held a
silent meeting a meeting, pcrchancc,
as is held in Heaven, only there We part
no more. In low voice he besought her
not to forget him when the cold grave re-
ceived his inanimate body-he spoke OF
by gone days-the happy hours of child
hood when his hopes were bright ard glo-
rious, and he concluded by requesting her
sometimes to visit the places and scenes
that were hallowed to his memory from
the days of infancy and should the world
pronounce his name with scorn and con-
tempt, he prayed she would still cling to
him with affection, and remember him
when others should forget.
Hark the church bell sounded, and he
remembered the hour of execution. The
turnkey entered, and after dashing the
tears from his eyes, had separated them
from their long embrace, and led the lady
from the dungeon. At the entrance she
turned, and their eyes met-they could
not say farewell-the door swung upon its
heavy hinges, and they parted forever
No not forever! is there no Heaven
At sunrise next morning he suffered glo-
riously-a martyr to his country and to
liberty.

AK IEEsHMAN.-On Wednesday last after a

fellows who, according to the Volcano Ledger
had been inGulging in bad article of whisky
were engaged in firing eff cannon pretty
heavily loaded with powder and mud, when the
instrument of death exploded with terrific
sound, sending pieces OF metal to the distance
of a mile and half knocking holes through
houses to the terror and astonishment of the
inmates, utterly demolishing hen-coop, and
knocking an unsuspecting hog into the middle
of the next week. The Ledger says:
"Pat was examining the chunks of metal
that were scattered about, (thc gun having been
blown into probably as many as a thousand
pieces.) and innocently asked, 'Arrah, Misther
