And to cloud the morning sun.
And nrav how was this devil dressedf
Oh be was cased IN an iron vest;
His scales were close and his rivets true,
With never chink for q spear to get thro.
And over the hill and over the dale
He walked, and over the PLAIN.
An sir-eun elegant, polish'd and round,
That would kill miles off with never sound
IA twirrd like . harmless cane. --
And over the lsurels of Full-blown Fame, --
And tender shoots Of the young Good Name
he stampd with his mercess hoof of shame,
And he left his print on EACH
And backward and forward he wriggled his tail
Through rose trimd garden, and lilly strewed vale
Marking his course by loathscme trail
Like snailtrack over peach.
He spied q laborer hard at work,
Early at his vocation,
His prominence offered capital shot;
"Oho!" quoth the devil, he sees me not.
So he shoulder'd his piece, and he aim'd God wot,
With terrible calculation!
He saw young innocent folks at play,

Der the fair young group whom he left a crew
Of monsters scarr'd and grim.

And was still erect and fair.

But I've fire. works studied for nothing in hell,
If can't find out when a match or she'll

That devil could creep where no other 6end can,
He found an unguarded spot,
Where he scraped a mine with his dlllEent hoof,
And his train prepared-wa, pillar, and roof,
Blew up in the air like shot.
The breach in the roof is mended now;
Its whereabouts few can tell,
But the devil had done his work that day,
So be crawld him back for his masters pay,
Which he royalty spent in joyial way,
With the lowest devils in hell.
There are many devils that walk this world,
Devils great and devils small
Devils with tails and devils without,
Devils who whisper, devils who shout,
Devils who mistify, devils who teach,
But the CALUNNY DEvIL-is hard to reach,
As the snail wbo now safe on some distant beech,
Is digesting the core of my favorite peach,

TIE NEWSPAPER Bus1NEss.-A friend remarked
to US the other day that ought to have daily
tri-weekly paper in Charlotte. We told him that
we found it the hardest sort of work to make
weekly pay, and collect what we made in that way,
and if We had daily or tri-weekly don't know
what we shonld do. We work Is hours in "a now,
and we certainly shall never undertake to work the
whole "a, unless there was a prospect of making
fortune very soon, which we know can't be done by
printing daily papers in small towns. The fact is,
there is not half enough of local patronage all put
together to sustain daily or tri-weekly either in
Charlotte. Towns with three times the population
of this place barely support anything above week
ly paper, and great many don't support weekly
sufficiently to make it profitable. We manage to
get along very we'll with weekly paper, but we
know that one print oftener would not begin to
pay expenses.
From the number of new papers starting up all
over the country it is plain that people generally
have very erroneous ideas about the business. They
think that with few hundred subscribers paper
may be started and made profitable; but they don't
remember that the greater portion of the subscrip
tons not paid under two three years. and
many never. Consequently it requires capital and
great deal of energy to put the business on firm
foundation and to pay expenses until patrons pay.
A neglect Of this truth is the reason why we hear
of msny papers being started and then dying out
after year two Of feeble exstence.LCs Charlotte
