HUMOR N MUSIC.

When humor joins with rhymth and music, and
appears in song, its influence is irresistible; its
charities are countless, it stirs tho feelings 10
love, peace, friendship, as scarce any mortal agent
can. The songs OF B~eranger are hymns of love
and tenderness; ] have seen great whiskered
Frenchmen w%arbling the bonnie Viella,' 'Soldots
au pas, au pas with tears rolling down their
moustacbes. AT q Burns festival, | have seen
Scotehheh singing Burns, while the drops twin
kied on their furrowed cheeks; while each rough
hand was flung out to grasp lis neighbours; while
early scenes and sacred recollections, and dear
and delightful memories of the past came rushing
back at the sound Of the familiar words and mu-
sic, and the softened heart was full Of love, and
friendship, and home. Humor if tears are the
aims of gentle spirits, and may be counted as sure
they may, among the sweetest Of life's charities;
of that kindly sonsibility, and sweet, sudden emo.
ton, which exhibits itself at the eyes, l know no
such provocative as humor. 1t is On irresistible
sympathiEer; it surprises you into cont passions; you
are laughing and disarmed, and suddenly forced
into tears. once heard a humorous balladist. O
Minstrel with wool on his head, and an ultra
Ethiopian complexion, who performed a negro
ballad, that | confess moisted those spectacles in
the most unexpected manner. They have gazed
at dozens of tragedy queens, dying on the stage,
and expiring in appropriate blank verse, aud l
never wanted to wipe them. They have looked
up, with deep respect be i. said, at many scores
of clergymen in pulpits, and without being dim
med; and behold, a vagabond with a corked face
and a banjo sings d little song, strikes q wild note
which sets the whole heart thrilling with happy
pity. Humor, humor is the mistress of tears; she
knows She way to the Gns ~laehrymarum, strikes in
dry and rugged places with her enchanting wand,
and bids the fountain gush and sparkle, She has
refreshed myriads more from her natural springs,
than ever tragedy has watered from her pompous
old urn.-Thackerdy.

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.
BY JOHN @. SAKE.

b1 JOhN &c SANE
Good luck is ALL" the ancient proverb breaches
But though it looks SO very grave and wise,
Trust not the lazy lesson tina. il teaches,
For as it stands, the musty maxim ties!
That luck is something wero q truer story
Ard in life's mingled game Of skill and luck,
The cards that win the stake of wealth or glory,
Are Genius, Patience, Perseverance,, Pluck
To borrow still another illustration,
A trh1e more speci6ce and precise
chance has Luck to guide the operation,
Where cunning Wit has loaded all the dice!
The real secret Of the certain winner,
Against the ~plottings Of malicious Fate,
Learn from the story of a gaming sinner
Whose frank confession l will here relate:-
In this ERE business, as in any other
By which n chan an honest living earns,
You don't get all the science from your mother,
But, as you folier it, you lives and learns;
And ], from being much behind the curtain,
And getting often very badly stuck,
Finds out, at last, there's nothing 80 uncertain
As trusting cards and everything to luckl-
So now you seo,-which naturally enhances
The faith in Fortune that ] used to feel,-
| takes good care TO regulate the chances,
And dlloays has a finger in the DEAL"

THE FABLE OF THE WANDERING JEW

The legend of a Jew ever wandering and never
dying, even from the cruci6xion of Jesus to this
day, has spread over many European countries.
The accounts, however, as in all fables, do mt
agree. One version is this When Jesus was led
to death, oppressed by the weight Of the cross. he
wished forest himself near the gate at the bouss
OF a shoemaker named Ahasuerus. This man
however, sprang forth and thrust him awav. Ia.
sus turned towards him saying, 4 shall rest, but
thou shalt move on till | RETURN And from ,ba,

TO wander about. Another version Ia tina, s,vsr

in constant dread Of the wrath to come. A third
legend adds that this wandering dew falls sicL

A NEW METOD OF TESTING LIQUORS,

4 gentleman recently walked up to the bar oil
a hotel and called for q glass Of brandy. The
bar-keeper handed down a decsnter containing q
dark colored but questionable fluid. The thirsty
gent who had callsd for the brandy glanced his
eye over the apartment with a view to find some
one who would drink with him. Observing a ne
gro sitting near the stove, he exclaimed. Boy
will you take a glass of brandy with MOP Tank
ee, massa,' was the reply, and the negro walked
up aud swallowed his glass, filled by the hand OIL
his benevolent friend.
The 5ar-keeper set up the d~ecanter, took the
change for two glasses, and observing that his
customer had not swallowed the glass which he
had poured out for himself, he inquired. Are you
not going to dsiuk your liquor, sir p I am not de-
cided, yet was the reply; you mix up such in
fernal compounds, these days, shat it is unsafe for
a man to drink until he has seen the liquors tested.
If that negro lives fifteen minutes, l will venture
to swallow my glass The negro rose, with an
evident expression of anxiety on his dusky coun-
tenance, and sloped. Whether the thirsty traveller
ultimately drank his glass, l have not learnod.-

Follow THE RlGHT-No matter who you are or
what your lot, or whore you live, you cannot at.
ford to do that which is wrong. The only way to
obtain happiness and pleasure for yourself. is to do
the right thing. You may not always hi:, but aim
for it, and with every trial your skill will increase.
Whether you are to be praised, or blamed for it
by others whether it will seemingly make you
richer or poorer, or whether no other person than
yourself knows of your action still always and
in oil cases do tho right thing. Your first lessons
in this rule will sometimes seem hard ones, but
they will grow easier and easier, until finally do
ing the right thing will become a habit, and to do
a wrong will seem an impossibility.

THE GOLDEN SUMMER DAYS.

With a warp Of sun.,hreads golden
And a weft Of purple rain,
Nature, as in seasons olden,
Wea7cs the Summers robe again.
Ever brighter, richer, faircr,
Grows the marvel Of her loom,
As she edd9, to grace the weorer,
Fruital wreath and floral plume.
Welcome, Summer ! come TO win US
From our woes, with song and sheen
How the weary hearts within US
Freshen in thy food of green!
How the soul her wings uucloses,
Scars all sordid cares above,
As from lirs Of opening roses
Pours the perfume breath Of lovel
When the glossy waters culver,
Shaken by the wandering breeze,
Arm in arm upon the river
Dance the shadows of tho trees;
And while winds and waves and waters
Thus in Earth's grand gala play,
Shall not we, her sons ind daughters,
Keep our Mothers holiday
Yet, fair summer transient proem
Of an epic broad and grand
Type Of the eternal poem
Life, in Lire's W Fathcrlaud!
What are all thy wales, June lighted,
What this Earth with sin tears stained,
To that Paradise u%nblighted,
Adam lost and Christ regained ?
Never storm the g!Jry palleth,
Never cometh want or woe,
In that world from which there falleth
But a CLEAN on..wcrlds below.
There among the bowers immortal
Ambushed, turks no serpent guile
Through TIL eternal Eden's portal
Passeth naught that can deflo.

rant that they will do everything in their power to
increase its interest, to enlarge its circle of attrac-
ton, and to raise its standard of ability in all
departments.
They think it proper to say, simply, that no
change will be made in the general character of
the magazine; that all the writer's whose contribu-
lions have established it in the popular favor will
continue to make it their medium of communica-
ton with the public; and that the relations of the
publishers with authors on both sides the Atlantic
will enable them to add materially to the variety,
interest, and value Of its pages.
The Atlantic has never been, and will never be,
a sectional journel. Its publishers acknc Wedge
no parallels Of latitude 10 the Republic of Letters;
and, while they will judge of any article offered
them, not by the source whence it comes, but by
its own intrinsic worth, they will at the same tins
endeavor to maintain its character as a periodical
in which earnest thinkers may find expression;
unhampered by fear Of that narrow censorship
which what is loudest. bat not deepest, in Public
Opinion would fain establish.
