s9The Poet is Born Not Made. ,,

There as are many poets among the
illiterate and rude as there are among
the educated and refined. Poetical
ideas are like beauty-they are inherent
and cannot be acquired. Grace and
facility of expression may be attained
by application, but the immortal
thoughts must spring from the secret
chambers of the soul. And often in
men of rudest mould and of toughest
associations are hidden conceptions of
the beautiful and the sublime, which. if
they were but developed to the world,
would immortalize their possessors. -
The other day, for instance, we happen
ed to call at a house of mourning where
a laborer and his wife were bewailinr
the loss of their only child. The poor
woman tried to suppress her tears in
order to comfort her husband while we
were present, but he turned to her and
said-"An' let 'em drop my darling
beant the eyes the sqfety-Uayoe Of the
heart2"
We could not help thinking that there
was more of poetry in that laborer's
soul than in the soul of many man
whose name has been tar more 'hon-
ored among his kind. ."-,S. r. Spirit

A man in his carriage was riding along,
Agaily dressed wife at his side;
In satin and laces. she looked like queen,
And he like king in his pride
A wood-sawyer stood on the street as they
passed;
The carriage and couple he eyed,
And said as he worked with his saw in log.
II wish was rich and could ride"
The man in the carriage remarked to his
wife,
One thing would do ifI could
"Pd give all my wealth for the strength and
the health
Of him who saweth the wood"
A pretty young maid, with bundle of work,
Whose face as the morning was fair,
Went tripping along, with a smile of delight,
While hulnming a love-breathing air,
She looked on the carriage; the lady she saw
Arrayed in apparel SO nne,
And said in a whisper, II wish from my heart
Those satins and laces were mine"
The lady looked out on the maid with her
work,
So fair in her calico dress,
And said "Td relinquish possession and
wealth
Her beauty and youth to possess"
Thus it is, in this world, whatever our lot,
Our minds and our time we employ
In longing and signing for what we have not.
Ungrateful for what we enjoy.
We welcome the pleasure for which we have
sighed,
The heart has void in it still,
Growing deeper and stronger the longer we
live,
That nothing but heaven can fill.

SLEIGHING IN ALBANY.
Of The Y. Y. Tribune,

ALBANY, Feb. 10, 1853.
Take sleigh, Sir, Take sleigh, Sir Any part Of
the cy-seiSn ready, Sir. Such were the words that
greeted us as stepped from the ferybost upon the
wharf at Albany on Tuesday evening
How strangely these words sounded TO one who left
the ei,v as We did at o'clock that day when the at
mosphere was warm enough for comfort 10 rooms
without FIRE, and storm of dust prevailing, such "a
we have rarely experienced except when March and
Aprl winds and warD, sunny days combine. Yet such
was the fact that in six hours had travelled from
such warm region into one where the first words that
greeted us upon our landing were, Have sleigh =
We met the irst snow in little patches along the road
about hundred miles above the city. Up TO that the
sunny hills looked warm and Sprng-hke. Where
sprr gs gushed the grass green. aud the little
streams free of ice. II Is rough rocky billy, pasto-
rial country up the Harlem road, but wltha good
country to live Unhealthy in the extreme, and ex
ceedinely pleasant-and the route 10 Albany by that
road is one that should be better known.
On Wednesday morning the streets were hVely with
seiebs slcds and every sort of contrlvance common
IN this country to avoid wheeling. State street wore
the very peculiar appearance that Albany alone can
show in Winter. A long column OF country sleds,
loaded with all sorts Of marketing from birch wood TO
kraut filled the center that broad street from
the bottom up the steep hill toward the safe House
Everything here, as contrasted with New-fdk,
wears decided wintry aspect the river is full OF ice,
and passage for the ferry is kept open by con
slant use, the channel being full OF floating ice-a
commodity just in demand among the caterers OF
that luxury in New-York.
The weather at Albany to-day is not encouraging
to the sleigh-riders. In all sunny places it has u
stronger inclination to slide than be shdden upon.
The forenoon was cloudy, and gave slight addition
to the snow that fell yesterday and last night; but at
O'Clock the world is abaze with sunshine, and the
atmosphere is very mild. We see, however mild the
Winter has been, that the earth is frozen about two
feet deep in Albany streets. :. X.

THE CURRENCY REFORM.

To the Editor Of The " y Tribune
SIR: In your paper of the Sd OF February, is an ar

novel views may start some rusty minds into thinking
Of radical change of our monetary system. But, Sir
you do not 90 far enough sese all the strength which
the reform movement should possess. Our banksshoud
cease to rely on circulation for profit The State should
issue notes like unto bank notes. but uniform IN tenor
and appearance, to whoever should deposit the requ-
site security. No one need be required to redeem
them but the State should receive them for its dues
and all special associations for dealing in money be
obliged to receive them for any demand they may have
against individuals corporations The State should
say at least three 49, per cent of income on the
securities in its hands, and leave the depositors OF
the N at liberty TO withdraw the securities return
an amount Of notes equal to those issued for them.
The notes should 60 out for nothing but securities the
State could guarantee, and the securities should be
surrendered for nothing but notes. This simple re.
,tricton would prevent or repress overissues, and
keep them always IN demand tor circulation. NO
other notes should be allowed
Banks can make their own rules for depostors. IL
they please to require contract from their Gus,
toners TO take their pay IN State currency, they need
never fear panic, and always pay on demand, II
they conduct their business with ordinary prudence
Banks may fail from losses acknowledgement then,
as individuals and banks do now, in ordinary times;
but distrust alarm or panic can ever reach the
