told by one of our Northern contemporaries, of a
tail, gawky loking countryman, who, during the
height of the business season last fall walked into
one of the largest wholesale dry goods houses on
Broadway, and entirely disregarding the invita-
tions of the numerous salesmen to inspect the
latest patterns, strobe into the counting room,
where the heads of the establishment were sitting
in,solemn conversation. After taking a cursory
glance of the room, and surveying attenivey the
res OF its occupants, he asked with an unctous
Yankee nasal twang:
Say, yeou--got any nails?s'
"Nails, sir, nailsr repeated the most digniied
Dombey of the firm. mo, sir, what should VIC
do with nailsa"
"Wal, dunno-thonght maybe you mought
Hant You got any nails, eh?'
mo, sir" replied Dombey again, with an en-
phasis, motioning to the door,
The individual in search of nails, took his time
about it, and then left the counting room In
turn, he asked every clerk the same question: and
received the same information from all, that
"nais'' formed no part Of the stock of the estab-
lishment.
"Well," said he, going towards the door, "dor't
keen nails here. no how!''
The principle salesman, whose dignity was hurt
by the idea that any one should suppose that an
establishment where he had prominent place.
should keep nails, headed the countryman off as
be was proceeding towards the entrance, and ask
ed him abruptly what he wanted.
"Want," said the countryman as cool as Gu.
cumber, II want to know if you have got any
nails?"

again, that we've got no nails-so you'd better

aAin't got any nails eh! Well. then, just look
here, mister, if you amt got no nails, what au
awful fix you'd be in if you'd happen to have the

WINTER ON LAKE SUPERIOR The season has
heen very severe at the copper mines Of Lake
Superior. A letter from Eagle River to the
Cleveland Herald, says that in the woods the snow
lies from four to five deep. so that W ithout snow
shoes the labor ofgetting through it prostrates
the unfortunate traveller Several cases have oc-
CURED of sober and stout men having become De.
wiIdered within sight Of houses, and barely escaped
horrible death. A large quantity of provision;
for Ontonagon having been left at Copper Harbol
by the steamboats, eighty ni1es from its destina.
tion, the people of Ontonagon attempted to reach
it; but, after four days and nights Of hard work
the party had to give up the effort without having
made any sensible progress. The people OF On
tonagon have also lost fine schooner, purchased
by them to be sent for their supplies after tht
steamers had stopped running. She ran upon
rock in a snow squali.

WILLIE BELL.

Down in yonder shadowed valley
Where the death tide waters roll,
Where huge phantoms ever daily,
With the aeeting fainting soul;
Where the hymn of desth is waking
In the gloom with measured swell
Thther went, our henrt-strings breaking,
Little, loving Willie Bell.
All the Spring time played he gladly,
With the sun beams from the sky sa
In the summer watched he sadly
All the Spring 1ow'rs fade and die;
And he wander'd by the brook side,
Where the gushing waters FELL,
Where the angels sung at night-tide, =
Music low to Willie Bell. !.
Butwhen Summer blossoms faded,
And the Autumn leaves flew bv--
When the gentle buds were shaded
BY the snow wreath from on high;
Then voice came down from Heaven,
Like the waves in winding SHE'LL
And an angel crown was given
To the brow Of Willie Bell
Folded then his hands of whiteness,
Ger the marble, lifeless breast,
While sweet strains from harps oe brightness
Welcomed him to heavenly rest;
And the eyes of blue were closing
Ger the cheeks where death damps fell,
While in dreamless sleep reposng,
Was the form of Willie Bell
| Down within the grassy meadow,
| Down within the silent vale,
| Where at even comes the shadow
Of the moonbeams still and pale;
There upon the cold earth S bosom,
| Mid the snow-hakes as they fell,
Laid we our bright summer blossom,
/ Lov'd in death,sweet Willie Bell.

FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH I, 1856.
The neusekecper.s soiiloquy.


/ wish / had dozen pairs
OF hands this very minute;
I'd soon put all the things to rights
The very deuce is in it.
Here's big washing to be done
One pair of hands to do it,
Sheets, shirts and stocks, coats and pants,
How shall l e'er get through iR
Dinner to get for six or more,
No loaf left o'er for Sunday;
And baby cross as he can live,
He's always so on Monday.
And there's the cream; It's getting sour,
And must forthwith be chnrning;
And here's Bob wants button on,
Whichaway shsll Ibs turningf
IT'S time the meat was in the pot,
The bread was worked for baking,
The clothes were taken from the boil,
o dear! the baby's waking.
Hush. baby, dear! there, hush-sh-sh!
wish he'd sleep little,
Till could run and get some wood,
To hurry up that kettle.
Oh dearl oh dear! if P-fcomes home,
And finds things in this bother,
He'll just begin and tell me oil
About his tidy mother.
How nice her kitchen used to be,
Her dinner always ready
Exactly when the noon hall .-an,.
Hush, hush; dear little Freddy!
And then will come some hasty word,
Right out before I'm thinking;
They say that hasty words from wives
Set sober men TO drinking.
Now isn't that great idea,
That men should take to SHINING,
Because weary, half sick wife,
Can't always smile to winning,
When / was young used to earn
My living without trouble;
Had clothes and money, Plenty, too,
Aud hours Of leisure double.
/ never dreamed of sdch fate,
When a-lass! was courted,
Wife, mother, seamstress cook, housekeepe
laundr. s., dairy-woman, and scr'
doing the work of SIX,
For Che sake of being supported!

give thanks to the living God that he has
put it into the hearts Of the American people to
raise up an organization in this land whose
great, whose all-pervading object, is to inaugu-
rate an American policy, a national American
sentiment. II is in strict accordance with the
maxims and principles of Washington and the
sages Of the Revolution, aud every right-mind
ed man who was born upon the soil, whatever
he may say, believes in the bottom of his heart
that we are right, and being right, We shall
succeed.
The great heart of the people is m we'd The
edict has gone forth that there shall be such a
thing as an American nation. Nationality shall
ani;,h.as.sa sa.:--~.ss gushing up from the
| depths OF the seuh purified by sense of the
beautiful the true and the great. A national
sentiment is the actual Of the life Of people
idealized Save the homage which we owe to
the Supreme Createf of the Universe there is
| no higher, nobleh purer sentiment among men.
Whence comes this sentiment! 1t comes from
all that is g eat and noble md glorioas in the
history of q nation. 1t comes from the songs
/ of her poets, the elcquence of her orators, the
1 wisdom of her sages, the deeds OF her warriors.
It comes from her progress in art, science and
literature. It comes from her pleasant places,
her happy homes, her. dleerful fresides, her
hallowed affairs. 1t comes from the prattle OF
her babes, the games Of her youth, her merry
meetings, her solemn assemblies. 1t comes
from hr crowded cities, her lonely church
yards. 1t comes from her Seeming earth, her
blue skies, her lovely valleys, her beautiful hill
sides. Ler towering mountains, her bubbne
brooks, her majestic rivers. 1t comes from he'
Bunker HilL her Saratoga, her Brandywine. /
comes from her Washington, her Greene, hel
Marion. 1t comes from her Franklin, he
e Hamilton, her Henry, her Jefferson. 1t comes
from her Fulton, her Whitney. It comes from
her Jackson, her Scott, her Taylor. 1t comes
from her Clay. her Calhoun, her Webster. |
$ comes from all that constitutes her being, he
: life 1t is her lfe her spiritual existence. With
:, out this ennobling sentiment, though natiol
may number her people by millions, yet she i
. dead as the clods Of the earth. With it sh
r may be conquered. She never can be subdued
' Her cities may be burned, her fields devasta

{, hearts exist this elastic, enthusiastic, kindlin
g sentiment, God in his own appointed time wi
!, give them strength to raise, redeem and recon
