CALUHNY.

'Tis 'calumny,"
Whose edge is sharper than the sword, whose
Outvenoms all the worms of Nile; who sc breath
Rides on the passing winds, and doth belle
All corners of the world kinks, queens and
states.
Maids. mntrons: nay the secrets OF the grave
This yiperous slander renters.-SnAKsPEARE.
This picture of Shakespeare, whose bo-
dy has mouldered in the tomb over two
hundred years, has lost none of its
strong features by modern improve
ments in human society. Calumny is
the blightning sorocco, the same enven-
omed scorpion, the same damning mi
asma, as it was when his master hand
delineated its dark and fcndish physio-
gomy. As then, its pestiferous breath
pollutes with each respiration-its fork
ed tongue is charged with the same poi
son-it sacrifices the high and the low,
the king and the peasant, the rich and
the poor, the matron and the maid, the
living and the dead;. but with cursed
propensity it delights most in destroy
ing worth and immolating innocence
Lacon has justly remarked, "Calumny
crosses oceans, scales mountains and
traverses deserts, with greater ease than
Scynthia Abris, and, like him, rides
upon poisoned arrow" As the sam
iel wind of the Arabian desert, not only
produces death, but causes the most ra-
pid decomposition of the body, so ca
lumny affects fame, honor, integrity
worth and virtue. The base, black
hearted, triple tongued, janus-faced,
clovcn footed calum niator, like the loath-
some worm, leaves his path marked with
the filth of malice and scum of false
hood, and pollutes the fairest flowers,
the choicest fruits, the most delicate
plants in the green house of character.
Living, he is a travelling pest house
dying, impenitcnt, his soul is too deep
ly stained for hell, and should be driv-
en- to that imaginary, elementlcss blank,
beyond the confines of all worlds,
in darkness of nonenity, there
to roam alone through the ceaseless ages
of eternity, without pain or pleasure to
relieve the awful monotony of that
dreadful vacuum. @, reader, never ca
lum muiate the. name of another-sooner
plunge a dagger through his or her
heart. So dep does the calumuiater
sink in the waters of degradation and
infamy, that could an angel apply an
moral lever to him, with
Heaven for fulcrum, he could not, in
a thousand years, raise him to the grade
of Il convicted felon. ..- ..

ACaIilornia Widow.

Captain Saltwater says his first essay
to effect matrimonial character result
ed in a manner SO discouraging that he
don't believe he'll ever be induced to
try it over again. The captain being
out Of service for some months, con-
ceived passion for rather mysterious
young lady boarding at the same hotel.
Says the Captain. II conveyed her round
to shops, shows, balls, theatcrs, church
es, and every other place of amusement
and information, and at last, when I
thought things had gone far enough, I
squares my yards and says I, just as
cool as a powder monkey. "Ma'am,
I've been thinkin' [ would like to be
spliced''-
':Spliced!,' says she as artless as a
turtle dove. .-..... >.. -.a--
eSpliccd,'' said I, ':aud if you've a
notion, why-Tm ready to share my
luck and dunnage with you, ma am -
She looked sort of taken back at first,
but she goes about and says zr.E1
Captain, I've been thinkin' if my
husband don't write soon, and send me
some money and a gold watch from Cal
iforny, I'd just as leave marry somebo-
dy else as not, and if, you'll wait few
days I'll give you the preference.
Her husband had been gone to the
Pacific just four months, and here was
a Californy widow! 'f.hE -1E r.
