yet he comes not. Once it was not so.
He thinks not how these bitter tears do flow,
The while he holds his riot in the town.
Yet no will come and chide, and l shall weep
And he will wake my infant from its sleep,
To blend its feeble wailing with my tears.
OF how I love n mothers watch to keep,
Over those sleeping eyes; that smile, which cheers
Ny heart, though sunk in sorrow, fixed and deep.
/ had n husband once, who loved me-now
lie over wears o frown upon his brow,
And feeds his passion On n wanton's lip,
As bees from laurel flowers q poison sip.
But yet l cannot hate. Oh there were hours
When / could hang forever on his eye,
And Time, who stole with silent witness by,
strewed, as he hurried on, his path with flowers.
l loved him then-he loved mo too. My heart
Still finds its fondness kindle if he smile
The memory Of our loves will neer depart;
And though ho often sting me with a dart,
Venomed and barbod, and waste upon the vile
Caresses which his babe and mine should share
Though he should spurn mel will calmly bear
His madness, and should sickness come and lay
It's paralyzing hand upon him, then

Until the ~penitent should weep and say
How injured and how faithful l bad been.

Probably no one remedy has ever been known which
cured so many and sucli dangerous cases as this. Some
no human aid can reach; but even to those the Cherry

from that day. She is not yet as strong as she used t.
be, but is free from her cough, and calls herself well.

a Cheese Story.

One night in Autumn, two travellers,
whose homes was among the green bills
OF Vermont, stopped at a small country
tavern 10 New Hampshire. During the
evening, one Of them got talking with a
farmer of the place upon farming mat
ters generally and the relative agricultu-
raj advantages of Vermont and New
Hampshire particularly. The farmer,
as light be supposed, maintained the su-
riority of his own State, New Hampshire;
and TO prove it, told how much butter and
cheese his wife had made that season
Not so much to show the excellent labor
ing capacity of his wife, he added, by
way of explanation, did be make this
statement, as to prove how much greater
in quantity was the milk of cows fed on
New Hampshire grass, than that of those
that grazed elsewhere.
SWELL" said the traveller, "that's moth
ing to what they do in Vermont. Why
one man up there made thirty tons of
cheese last summer, and be was small
farmer, too"
81 guess you have set that a little too
high" said the farmer, unwilling to con-
cede that there was better farmer in
Vermont than himself.

A Negro Discussion about Eggs.

Geneva, the lovely village on Seneca

Parliamentary ruling:
In the fairest village of western New
ork the "culled pussons," 10 emulation
OF their white brethren, formed a deba-
ting society for the purpose af improving
their minds by the discussion of iDstrnc-
tive and entertaining topics The delib-
eratious of the society we're presided over
by venerable darkey. who performed
his duties with the utmost dignity pecu-
liar to his color. The subject for the dis
cussion on the occasion of which We write
was:
"What am de mudder OBJ de chickens
de ben what lay de eggs, or de hen wat
batohes de cbickl"
The question was warmly debated, and
manyireasons pro and cou were urged and
combated by the excited disputsnts.-
Those in favor of the latter proposition
were evidently in the majority, and the
President made no attempt to conceal
that his sympathies were with the doni-
nant party. At length an Intelligent
daTky rose from the minority side and
begged leave to state proposition to this
effect:
"Spose," said he. "dat you set one
dozen duck eggs under hen, and dey
hatch, which am de mudder-de duck or
de henl"
This was poser, was we'll put, aud

Worth Knowing.

A young lady of this city, while in ths
country, stepped on a rusty nail, which
ran through her shoe into her foot. The
indsmn alton and pain were great, and
lock jaw was apprehended. A friend Of
the family recommended the application
of beet, taken from the garden and
pounded 6De, to the wound. 1t was done
and the effect was very beneficial. Soon
the inflammation began to subside, and
BY keeping on the fresh beet, and chang
ing it for fresh one, as its virtue SEEM
ed to become impaired, speedy cure
was effected. Simple and effective rem
edies like this should be known to every
one.
