THE MID-WATCH.

FROM BAYARD TAYLoR's POEMS OF THE oR1EN
l pace the deck in the dead of night,
When the moon and starlight fall;
And the cordage creaks to the lazy swells
And heavily flaps the sail.
On the darkness gIimmers the binnicle lamp,
With feeble and lonely spell:
No sound but the passing sentry's tramp,
Or bis measured cry, "All's we'll"
To and fro with accustomed step,
walk in the night alone;
And think of the thousand watches kept
In the year forever flown;
Of the friends in whose manly fellowship
labored long ago.
Till death relieved their watch on earth,
And they went to rest below.
think of the gallant ones who died
When our broadsdes shook the sea.
And sorrow for them subdued the pride
OF our cheers Of victory;
Of those who fell in the fevered lands
Or sank in the whelming wave;
Those corpses waste on the barren sands;
Or float IN fathomless grave.
And the looks revive that were faint and dim
In the shadows of the years,
And | scan them o 'er till my eyelids swim
With the strange delight of tears;
They people the dark with their palic brows
As they silently throhg around,
And the sea its pbosphor radience throws,
On the faces Of the drowned.
So many noble heart is cold,
That shared my duties then,
/ have looked full oft in the face Of death,
But he comes to better men;
And let him come in his chosen time,
Some friend will think of me,
And shall live, IN the lonely hours

"Then," continued the aid-de-camp, 'you
must know that the commanders of regiments
dine with his Excellency to-day"
"What of that?'' again interrupted Nor
gan "what has that to do with me a priso-
ner and
"No, no." exclaimed Hamilton; no pri-
isoner-a once offending, but now forgiven
soldier; my orders are to invite you to dine
with his Excellency to-day, at three o'clock
precisely; yes, my brave and good friend
COL Morgan, you still are ard likely long
to be the valued and famed commander of
the Regiment"
Morgan sprang from his campbell, upon
which he was sitting, and seizing the hand
of the great little man in his giant grasp,
wrung and wrung it, till the aid-de camp
literally struggled to get free, then exclaim-
ed: cam | in my senses? but | know you
Hamllton-you are too noble a fellow to
sport with the feelings of an old brother SOL
der"
Hamilton assured his friend that all was
true, and gaily kissing his hand, as he
mounted his horse, bidding the now delight
ed Colonel remember three o'clock, and be
careful not to disobey a second time, gallop-
ed to headquarters.
Morgan entered the pavilion Of the Com
mander-in-Chief, as it was filing with Off
GERS, all of whom, after paying their respects
to the General, filed off to give cordial
squeeze of the hand to the Commander of
the Rife Regiment, and to whisper in his
ear words Of congratulation. The cloth re-
moved Washington bid his guests fill their
glasses, and gave his only, his unwavering
toast Of the days of trial, the toast of the
evening of his ''time honored" life amid the
shades of Mount Vernon, 'sAN oar Friends"
Then, with his usual old-fashioned polite
ness, he drank to each guest by name
When he came to "Col. Morgan. your good
health, sir, . a thrill ran through the manly
frame Of the graceful and again favorite sol
der, while every eye in the pavilion was
turned on him. At an carly hour the COM
pany broke up, and Morgan had perfect
escort of officers accompanying him to his
quarters, all anxious to congratulate him
upon his happy restoration to rank and favor,
all pleased to assure him of their esteem for
his person and services.

PAY THE PRINTER.
By HENRY BRADY.


As honest men, attend and bear,
The serious fact-the times are dear;
Who owes bill, tis just as clear
AS star light in the winter,
That he should come without delay
That's if he can-that bill to paw,
And ere he puts his purse away.

The Printers check is seldom red,
The fine machinery of his head
is working when you are IN bed,
Your true and faithful "Mcntor:"
All day and night he wears his shoes,
And brains, to furnish you with news;
But men of conscience ne'er refuse
To pay the toiling Printer.

His dues are scattered, and they RE small,
And if not paid, he 5 bound to fall
In debt-for fuel, bread, rent, or
Perhaps his paper; then to square
Up with his help-or double care
Bows down his head-now, is it fair
That you don't pay the Printers
His wife and little prattlers, too,
Are now depending upon you: 80
And if you pay the score that's due,
Necessity can't stint her;
But if you don't, as knaws the mole,
Twill thro' your conscience eat hole!
And brand your forehead thus, .sNo SOUL ~
OF him who cheats the Printer.
The cats will new between your feet,
And dogs will bite you on the street,
And every urchin that you meet,
Will roar out with voice. of Stentor,
''Look to your pockets-here he goes,
The chap that wears the Printers clothesl
And proud, though everybody knows
The grub, he knaw'd the Printer"
Be simply just, and dom disgrace
Yourself, but beg the ''Lord Of grace"
To thaw that harden'd, icy "case,"
That honesty may enter;
This done, man will with man act far,
And all will have the s'tin to spare;"

He who is genteel, and is not gentle, is

Some men are like drum, the more they

them to do for themselves. This is the Sc
