E The many things that ADAl
missed, are here enumerated:
Adam ne'er knew what it was to be boy,
wheedle pennies from doting sire,
With which to barter for some pleasing toy,
Or calm the rising of a strong desire
To suck an orange. Nor did he
Fer cast the shuttlecock with battledore,
Nor were his trowsers ever out at knee,
From playing marbles on the kitchen floor.
He never, skated Ger the frozen r1ll,
When winters covering o'er the earth wa
spread m sfo
Nor glided down the slippery hill,
With pretty girls upon his trusty sled.
He never swung upon his fathers gate,
Or slsptin sunshine on the cellar door,
He neier amused himself with rows of bricks,
So set, if one fall. all came down;
Nor gazed delighted at the funny tricks,
OF harlequin or travelling circus clown.
By gradual growth he never reached the age,
When cruel Cupid first invokes his art,
And stamps loves lessons page by page,
On the glowing tablets of a youngling's heart
He never wandered forth on moonlight night,
With her he loved above all earthly things,
Nor tried to mount old Pindar's rocky heights,
Because he fancied love had lent him wings.
He never tripped it o'er the ballroom floor,
Where love and music intertwine their charms,
Nor wandered listless by the sandy Shore.
Debarred the pleasures of his lady's arms.
For Adam so at least It's said
BY many an ancient and q modern sage,
Before moment of his life had fed,
Was fully THIRTY YEARS OF AGE.

TAKING A POSITION.


Joe Dovetail had d strong-mindsd
wife. She looked upon Joe as a sort Of
necessary evil, treating him very much
as the lady did her husband on the
North River steamboat, who ventured
to object to some of her arrangements
for travel, when she shut him up sud-
denly by telling him, in the hearing Of
a dozen passengers
Why, what is it to yous If I had
known you were going to act SO, I
wouldn't have brought you along. =
But Joe and Mrs. Dovetail never
travelled. They were always at home,
though Joe was rarely seen there or
elsewhere She had long trained him
to the habit of retiring under the bed
when company called, and SO familiar
was he with that retreat, it was ques,
tion whether, in default of personal ser,
vice, a warning to militia training would
hold him unless left under the bed, as
being his last and ufual place ofabode.'
During the stay of Mrs. Dovetail's
friends he occasionally thrust ont his
head like turtle, but one glance of his
spouse would send him under with cold
shivers running up his back. One day
as she was hobnobbing over the FIRE with
a friend and social glass, Joe thrust out
his fgure-head, and de6ed the shakes
and frowns of his wife, till, growing yaI-
liant and desperate, he sung out !:
Ny dear. you may shake your head
just as much as you please, but tell
you as long as have got the spirit If
a man will peep"

Economist says that the expectations
from New York have also been large,

weeks. The price of New England rum,
when the Eastern war commenced, was
thirty cents gallon; it is now ffty-two
cents with an activity of demand greater
than the ability to supply. Molassess
in the same period, has risen from twens
ty.two to forty-four cents, and diHioalt

house in Boston took French Govern
