There are some hearts that, like the loving vine,
Cling TO unkndiy rocks ard ruined towers,
Spirits that suffer and do not repne--
Pa tient and sweet Lowry trodden flowers,
That from the passer' heel arise,
And give hack odor ous breath, Instead OF signs.
But there arc other hearts that viii not feol
The lowly love that haunts thor eyes and ears
That wound fond faith with anger worse thnn steel
Ard ont OF pity's spring draw idle tears.
Nature shall IL ever be thy will
Ill things with good Ia mingic, good with III
Why should the heavy foot OF sorrow press
The willing heart Of uncompiaining low
Meek charity that shrinks not from distress,
Gentlcness, 10th her tyrants to rsprove
TIL ugh virtue weep forever and lament,
Win one hard heart turn to her and relent
Why should the reed be broken that will bend,
And they that dry the tears in others eyes
Feel their own anguish wolling without end,
Their Summer dAT ened with tho smoke Of signs
Sure, Love, TO some fair Eden of his own
Will fee at last, and leave US here alone.
Love wcepcth always--weepcth for the pact,
For woes that are, Tor woes that may betide;
Why should not hard ambition weep at last,
Envy and hatred, Avsricc aud pride

Frederick Sala, writing from Russia to
Dickcns's Household Words, mentions that
on table near him stands 50 lnrgish tum-
bier filled with n steaming liquid Of gold
en- color in which floats q thin slice Of lem
on. + is fEAf-the most delicious, the most
soothing, the most thirst allaying drink you
can have in summer time, and in Russia.o
Tea, q wored with the slice Of lemon, We
have never tried; neither are we prepared
to recommend AS q summer beverage tea
steamiug hot, as Sala does. But tea made
strong, (as zee like it, or as streng ~ you
like il, well sweetenad, with good milk or
better cream in it in sufficient quantity to
give it dark yellow color, and the whole
mixture cooled in An ice chest to the tempe
nature Of ice water, is "the most delicious,
the most soothing, the most thirst allaying
drink" We have ever treated ourselves or
friends to. We know Of nothing to COM
pare with it for dcliciousness or refresh
ment. IL cheers, but not inebriates. Its
stimulus is gentle, its flavor exquisite. Try
it good reader; make . note Of thi. now,
| and when the summer fervor visits you, and
you feel, with Sidney Smith, that for the
sake of GOODNESS you could get out Of your
flesh and sit in your bones, try our specific
Of ice-cod tea. Juleps, cobblers and such
things, sink to utter nsgnifcance beside it.
They are only temporarily refreshing, and
| fire the blood after the FIVE minutes follow
ing their inhibition. Soda is folly it in
hates one painfully with carbonic gas, and
adds to the discomfort heat produces. leo
water is unsatisfying; you drink until you
feel r-logged, and derive no benefit
Ice cream ia the only preparation fit to be
mentioned with our cold tea. Some Of our
restaurant and saloon keepers would do we'll
to keep this mixtars among their summer re-
freshments. We feel sure that it would pay
them pecuniariiy to do so. The beverage
only needs to be known 10 be nnnular

PsKSrlcE AND DuaRKrT.--The rencontre
between tbeset two editors arose from an ar
ticle written by the latter, in which he said
the former was an abolitionist, in sympathy
with Republicans and nigger-stealers no.
torious drunkard, who lately came near los
ing his life by stepping of gang-plank to
ferry boat, while in sstate of intoxication;
and who was now supporting for Congress
another notorious jrrunkard, Humphrey
Marshall, who spends his time mt Washing
ton in the drinking saloons and gambling
bells. Prentice seems to have thought this
sufficient cause for pistols.
RAILROAD WRASclE.--At meeting Of the
citizens in Warsaw, a few days ago, the larg-
est of the kind ever held in town, the people
passed resolutions requesting the Directors
Of the Warsaw and Rockford Railroad to re-
sign. Their dilatoriness 10 the cause attrib-
uted for the request. 1t would seem that
the road bed from Warsaw to Hamilton is
not yet ready for the iron, and the people
are afraid that the Wabash and Mississippi
Company will commence laying iron oppo-
site keokuk, when it arrives, instead OF com
mencing at Warsaw. This, we presume, is
the principal course of this popular ebulli
ton. If the Warsaw Railroad directory had
had money or means wherewi,h to construct
the road, wepresume they would have done
il, and we have no doubt but that they have
spent all the money they could get hold Of
for the purpose of building it. Still they
may have been negligent. We do not know.
