Villagers Winter Evening Song.
BY JAMES T. FIELDS.

Not leaf on the treu,-not bud in the
hollow,
Where late swung the blue-bel, and bios
semed the rose;
And hushed is the cry Of the swift-dartine
swallow, ~
That circled the lake in the twilight's dim
close
Gone, gone are the woodbine and sweet
accented brier,
That bloomed Ger the hillock and gladdened
the vale;
And the vine that uplifted its green pointed
spire, #,f
Hangs dropping and sere on the frost COW
cred pale. @
And hark to the gush of the deep welling
fountain,
That prattled and shone in the light Of the
moon !;
Soon, soon shall its rushing be still on the
mountain,
And locked up in silence its frolicksome
tune.
Then heap up the hearth stone with dry
forest branches,
And gather about me, my children, in glee,
For cold on the upland the stormy wind
launches,
And dear is the home of my loved ones to
me.

Rights Of Americans.

A wag has made the following sum-
mary of what he calls the inalienable
rights of Americans, and which are not
enumerated in the Declaration of Inde-
pendence =
To know any trade or business with
out apprenticeship or experience.
To marry without regard to fortune,
state Of health, position, or opinion Of
parents.
To have wife and children dependant
on contingencies Of business, and, in case
Of sadden death, to leave them wholly
unprovided for.
70 teach our children no good trade,
hoping that they will have, when grown
up, wit enough to live on the industry
of other people.
TO enjoy the general sympathy when
made bankrupt by reckless speculation.
10 cheat the government if possible.
To hold Offices without being compe-
tent to discharge the duties.
To build houses with nine and six
inch walls, 60 to the funeral Of tenants,
fremen, and others killed by the fall,
weeping over the mysterious dispensa-
tions of Providence.
To build our cities and towns without
any parks, public squares, broad streets,
and ventilated blocks, and call pestilence
visitation of God.

The Love Of Home.

ing at the humble condition of early
I life affect nobody in America but those
who are foolish enough to indulge in

man who is not ashamed of himself need
not be ashamed Of his early condition
It did not happen to me to be born in
a log cabin, but my elder brothers and
sisters were born in log cabin, raised
among the snow drifts of New Hamp-

settlements on the rivers of Canada

by the generations which have gone be-
fore them. I love to dwell on the ten
der reccollections, the kindred ties, the
early affections, and the variations and
incidents which mingle with all I know
Of this primitive family abode. weep
to think that none Of those who inhabit-
ed it are now among the living; and il
I ever fail in affectionate veneration for
him who raised it, and defended it
against savage violence and destruction,
cherished all domestic comforts beneath
it's roof, and through the fire and blood
Of seven years revolutionary war shrunk
from no toll, no sacrifice, to serve his
country, and to raise his children to a
condition better than his own, may my
name, and the name Of my posterity, be
blotted forever from the memory OF
mankind.

Johns Love Compared with Paul's.

Love in Johns heart is something like
divine complacency and satisfaction, a
calm, unruffied lake, the reflected heaven
slumbering on it's bosom, and the hills
Of holiness watching around it. Paul's
love is not like divine complacency.-
1t is much more like what one can fancy
a seraph's fervid fire. It cannot lie still.
1t rests not day nor night. 1t cannot
be hid. Blaze after blaze bursts forth,
brighter and brighter still. John lies
basking, SO to speak, in the full sunshine
of his Saviour's love; and so he seems
as if he would fain just lie still and en-
joy It, This my rest, here will | dwell,
for [ have desired it. Paul, like the
skylark reused from his lonely bed by
the rising sun, spread out his willing
wing away he scars tc heaven and as
he scars he sings far above the world the
praises Of that Saviour who hath called
him out Of darkness into his marvellous
light Johns love was like his life !:
calm, still; either leaning on Jesus's
bosom, or seeing visions in the lonely
sea-girt Patmos. Paul's love was like
his life, too +; either journeying to Dam
ascus, or shipwrecked on his way to
Rome, or fighting with wild beast at
Ephesus, or daring to carry the Gospel
into the very palace Of the Cesars.-
Rev. R. 3. Nichoz.

A Story with a Lesson.

An elderly lady who lived in one Of
the small streets of the Fauburg St.
jacques, sent to Brittany for young
girl to wait upon her. She was far
from being rich an income of 1000
francs (about ESQ., was her whole rev.
enue; and she had to exercise economy
to make this small sum last her the
whole year through. The young girl,
sent her by relative in Brittany, was
named Perine, and every day showed
the young girl to be economical, tidy,
careful and most industrious. Twelve
months passed without SO much as an
un'lind word being said between them
One morning the I'D lady returned home
in state of great agitation, and said to
Perine, "You must leave this house.
Look ops for place this very day."
"Do you send me away, Madam p
exclaimed Perine, bursting into flood
of tears.
'No, I do not dismiss you," replied
the old lady, mingling her tears with
those Perine shed SO fast 81 do not
dismiss you but l can keep you no
longe.', for [ am ruined"
The old lady had heard a few minutes
before that her little capital had been
lost by the bankruptcy of one of her
kinsmen, into whose hands she had con-
fded it.
"If that's all, Madam" said Perine,
"that's no reason why I should leave
you ; at your age you require some
body to serve you"
"But, my dear girl" exclaimed the
old lady, deeply touched, ,,you do not
understand what it is to be ruined. |
can neither pay you nor feed you"
''If that's the case, Madam, [ shall
not ask you to feed or pay me; but as
you have been mother to me, | will
treat you as daughter should treat her
mother. I will work for you and for
me-"
The old lady protested against Pc
rine's doing any such thing-but in
vain. Perine obtained situation in
the neighborhood as maid -of-all- work,
but she retained the right to give one
hour every day to the old lady's service,
when she would make the latters bed
sweep out the room, and cook the break
fast and every night she slept in the
old lady's chamber. She would every
day bring the latter some fruit or fowl F.;
in short, she acted towards the decayed
gentlewoman as if the latter had in
deed been her mother.
This patient self-sufering lasted two
years without an hours intermission,
when the brother of the old ladys died
"a brother she had quarrelled with
years ago and had lost sight, if not

ITEMS WORTH COMMITTING TO MEM
oRY.-A bit of glue dissolved in skim
milk and water will restore old Grape.
Half a cranberry bound on corn
will soon kill it,
An inkstand was turned over white
table cloth a servant threw over it a
mixture Of salt and pepper plentifully,
and all traces Of it disappeared.
Picture frames and glasses are pre-
served from flies by painting them with
brush dipped in mixture made by
boiling three or four onions in pint
OF water.
Bed bugs are kept away by wash
ing the crevices with strong salt water,
put on with a brush.
Soft soap should be kept in dry
place in the cellar, and not be used un-
til three months old.
Stings and bites arc often instanta-
neously cured by washing them in
hartshorn or turpentine.

INEFFEcTUAL.-Alfonso lombard, a
sculptor Of the Emperor Charles V, was
a great coxcomh. He got punished one

ball, in the midst Of which he turned,
to her, and. heaying profound sigh,
said, as he looked her IN the face with

GERARD THE LION KILLER DEAD.-
Captain Speke, the undaunted explorer
of the Nile, after passing unhurt through
many perils by land and water, fell a
victim to an inglorious accident in the
heart of England. Jules Gerard, the
celebrated lion-killer and African trav-
eler, has by the last foreign arrival, been
drowned while crossing river in Africa.
Delivered like Daniel Of old, from the
mouth Of the lion and the paw Of the
bear, he too, has fallen victim to an
accident which happens daily in the most
civilized communities.
