The following ..thrilling poem,
we clip from an exchange. We do net
relnember of ever reading such heart
touching poetic strain. If the reader
viii observe. he will at once see the
classics rendered in this ''pone,o ana
the distinguished author symPatizes
With, and gives very graphic deserip-
tion, and, also naeditates upon the lone
~ condition in which his porcine friend
has been unfortunately left in. The
language Of this touching BALLAD
resembles that of the LAST Rose OF
Summer But this being on a more
delicate subject. is, naturally more
sym pathetic and touching.
The Last HOg of autumn.
IT'S the last hog Of Autumn,
Left sqaealing alone;
All his granting companions
Are bptehered AMI gone;
No p;gof his kindred,
No porker is nigh,
To help empty the swill-trough,
Or share in his sly.
I'll not leave thee, thou lone one
To starve in the pen,
Since thy mates are all pork now
Die shalt though with them.
The knife to thy throat,
And thou shalt be picked,
Like every dead shoat.
And may | be present
> When thou art the treat,
For ham, souse or sausages,
Who would not eat
When people are hungry.
And beef can't be had,
For calniag the appetite,
Pork IS not bad.

\ An 1Ncn OF RAIN ON THE ArLaSrrIi6t. =
Lieut.. Maury in his Physical Geography
Of the Sea, thus computes the,efect of asin-
gle inch Of rain falling upon the Atlantic
Ocean. The Atlantic includes an area
rs. 0o0,0 600 square miles Suppose an inch
Of rain to fall upon only one-iftH of this
vast expanse, it would weigh $50, 900, 0O0,-
600 tons, and the salt which, as water, is
held in solution in the sea, and which when
the water was taken Up as yapor was left be-
hind to disturb equilibrium: weighed &c.
600, 900 more tons, or nearly twice as much
as all the ships in the world could carry at
cargo each. It might fall in day; but,
occupy what time it might in falling, this
rain is calculated to exert SO much force
which is inconcievably great-in disturbing
the equilibrium Of Of the ocean, If all the
water discharged by the Mississippi river
during the year were taken up in one nigh
ty measure, and cast into the ocean at an
effort, it would not make greater distur-
bance in the equilibrium Of the area than the
fall Of rain supposed And yet SO gentle
are the operations Of nature, that MOVEMENTS
SO vast are unperceiyea.

How Poor YOlng Mon may Succeed.

Young man, krf9ou poor, and without

upon its billowss 80 your father poor and
unable to give ydu an outfit !? But be not dis
heartened on account qfall this. Take ear
nest hold Of life, and never regard yourself
in any other light tAaA that Of being desti-
ned 10 high and no1s e purpose. Study
closely the bentof your own mind for la
Dor or profession, and either learn trade
or adopt profession. Whatever you re
solve upon, do i early, follow it steadily
and untiringly never look backward to
what YOU have encountered, but always for
ward to what IS within your grafp. The
world owes every man comfortable living,
and respectable position in society means
are abundant to every mans success; and
men have only ta adopt actlland acton ta,
them as1
To repinc over want Of money and
property, to start out in the world with,
and over the want Of the props Of influential
relatives, is unmanly. Let a young man
strive to create a fortune. rather than seek
to inherit one. It's an ignoble spirit that
leads young man to borrow, instead ofbe-
queathing means. Go forth into the World,
|yonng man, conscious Of God within you,
and his providence over you, and fight your
own way to distinction, to honor, and COM
fort. Pity in your inmost soul the young
man who, without any change, is unable to
support himself, and is whining around, and
begging the influence Of others to get him
into employment! Feel, under all circum-
stances, thatit is more noble, more honora-
BILE to eat the crust you have earned, than
to flourish with coppers inherited. You
may lift your head proudly to face and con-
front the neblest among us, when you are
conscious Of being the architect Of your own
fortunes. Young man, are youpoor Z? Be
honest, be tirtuous, be Industrious; hold up
your head, and say by your actions and
looks, what the poet has said in words
ri scorn the man who boasts his birth,
/ And counts his titles and his lands,
Who takes his name and heritage
From out a dying fathers hands.
