Going Up and Coming Down.

This is a simple song, It's true
And songs like these are never nice;
And vet wen try and scatter through
A pinch or two of good advice.
Then listen, pompous friends, and learn
Never to boast Of much renown;
For Fortunes wheel is on the turn,
And some go up and some come down.
We know a vast amount Of stocks,
vast amount Of pride insures
But fate has picked so many locks
We wouldn't like to warrant yours.
Remember, then, and never spurn
The one whose hand is hard and brown
For he IS likely to go up,
And you are likely to come down
Another thing you viii agree,
(rhe truth may be as well confessed,)
That Goldfish Aristocracy"
II Is but a scaiy thing at best
And though the fishes large and strong
NAV seek the little ones to drown,
Yet fishes all, both great and small,
Are going up and coming down.
Our lives are full Of chance and change,
And chance you know is never sure,
And 'twere doctrine and strange
That places high are most secure.
And though the tickle god may SMILE
And yield the sceptre and the crown,
IT'S only for little while
Then b goes up and A comes down.
This world for you and me my friend,
Has something more than pounds and pence;
Then let me humbly recommend
A little nse Of common sense.
Thus lay all pride Of place aside,
And have a care on whom you trown,
For fear you'll see him going up,
When you are only coming down.

The correspondent of the Philadelphia Sunday
Mercury lis the following story
Among the strangers who visited us this week
was the Hon. Tom Corwin, of Ohio. Mr.. Cor
win stops at the Asor House. Among those of
our citizens who called upon him last Thursday
for the purpose of introducing HIMSELF was Mr..
Greedy, Of The Tribune. Mr. Greely encountered
gentleman whom he felt assured must be Mr..
Corwn, in the rotunda Of the hotel, when he ac-
costed him:
"Mr. Corwin. my name is Greedy"
"Delighted to see you, my dear sir" said
Corwin, grasping Mr.. G's right hipper with one
hand while with the other he pulled up his col
lar exactly three and one-fourth inches. "What
do you say to brace of Woodcock and some
Hedsick, Mr. G." inquired Corwin, "whie we
have good old fashioned talk?'
"Well, you know am somewhat abstemious
but under the circumstances cannot decline"
Very well, Wen go to Florences and order
them upn
Accordingly, the gentlemen locked arms
walked to Florence's entered private room,
and, at Corwin's request, Mr.. Greeley ordered
devlled qua Is and mushrooms, hanked by two
pnts OF II ds.ck Mr., g., although ahstemious
doesn't lack appetite, and soon finished up his
share of the via ids and beverages, when Cor
win paused in the middle of an animated dis
cussion, and stepped ont, saying he would re-
turn IN mom,nt Mr.. G.. waited a half an
hour, then another, and another; and then re-
membering that he had to write reply to that
id EpresS for the next day, he paid the bill.
$3.50. aid numbered over to the Tribune office.
H r. he found his associate, Dana, to whom he
communicated his opinion that the Hon. Tom
Corwn of Ohio was id small potatoes
"Why do you Judge so ~ asked Dana.
Mr.. G. here relat d his recent adventure
Dana snorted-he couldn't help it.
"Why, Greedy" said he, you're sold Mr..
Corwil left in the day boat for Albany know
it because | saw him in the boat myself. You
have been sold, and so deucedly cheap that you
bad better say as little as possible about Mr.
Corwin or the dinner either"
The hero of the old white coat wilted. He
didn't say word but crushed his hat under his
arm and dived into the inmost recesses of the
sanctum.
As the Tribune of Friday contained a leader
giving Brooks particular Jessie-a regular sting
ing. whitening article, hotter than a blister
dressed with Cayenne pepper--t is a fair pre-
sumption that the astute philosopher eased his
ceilings during the progress of his production.
'ut knowing him as do think the person who
lould ask him how he enjoyed his dinner with
ON Corwil would witness an explosion of
rath that must appal anything weaker than a
It of cast iron nerves.

A GOOD GAME COUNTRf.--Ihe Sah ri"nOi0NO
Sun tells the following:
A Frenchman of this city having nothing par
tcular to do on Sunday, loaded gun and start
ed off on a hunt. BY the time he had arrived
at the Willows, be had discovered nothing to
shoot at and he accordingly entered that lnstl-
tuition to fortify himself, and he treated himself
so literally that he made bis exit perfectly sat
is6ed with himself and the rest OF mankind.
Game began to grow plenty, and our nero
bagged five pigeons on the race course, the pro-
perty of Mr.. Brown, and pet rabbit, belonging
to widow lady in the vicinity. He then made
tracks to the Mission and while reconnoterlng
in the vicinity, suddenly found himself IN an
enclosure in which was young grizzly pear;
Our Frenchman thinking he had prize, placed
a brace of bullets in his gun and let fly, laying
the bear cold. The report Of the gun brought
out another Frenchman, who, it appears, was
the owner of the grizzly, and had been fattenlng
it up for the holidays, and an argument was at
once commenced, which should have been heard
to be fully enjoyed Finally, terms were agreed
upon. the conditions being that the principals
and their friends should have good dinner OH
the grizzly, and the huntsman agreed to deiray
the expense of the wine imbibed on the occasion.
