Etz 'Tis bad TO leave your fathers Watch
se11ffss In a store you know not we'll,
To be repaired by perfect botch,
& For its time will never tell;
Yet hard il is when told to go
To flen you never knew,
To some fine store, all outside show,
Instead of BAR-THO LO-MEW.
But if there was one gentle eye
While in that store, you'd grieve .
To see him on that Watch to try,
You would scarcely once believe.
But in this city there are men
Who can repair your Watch all through,
And am one among those ten,
And my names BAR-THo LoMEw.

the following wall from the Springfield Re-

word-a city sacked and burnt-a battlefield
after great slaughter--a London in the
midst of a plague-a ship burning at sea
a family pining in starvation--a jug of mo-
lasses wrecked upon the pavement-but the
saddest sight, to us, of all, is an old bache-
lor stolidly walking toward his end, his great
duties undone, his shirt buttons off, his
stockings out at the toes, and nobody to
leave his money to. Where we such man,
the mild, reproving eye of widow or
maiden lady would drive us mad But there
is still hope. Uglier, and older men than
any Of our friends have married beautiful
wives, who trained them admirably, and
