THE LOVE KNOT,


Tying her bonnet under her chin, .s ~
She tied her golden ringlets in, ....-.
But not alone in the silken snare,
Did she catch her lovely floating hair,
For, tying her bonnet under her chin,
She tied Il young mans heart within.
They were stfolling together up the hill,
Where the wind comes blowing merry and
chill,
And it blew the curls a frolicsome race,
All over the happy. peach-colored face,
. Till, scolding and laughing, she tied them in +,
Under her beautiful, dimpled chin. 81
And it blew color, bright as the bloom
OF the pinkest fushia tossing plume.
All over the checks Of the pretties girl
That ever imprisoned romping curl, .t
Or, in tying her bonnet under her chin,
Tied Young mans heart within.
Sleeper and sleeper grew the hill
Nader. merrier, chillier, still,
The western wind blew down and played
The widest tricks with the little maid,
As, tying her bonnet under her chin, p
She tied ayoung mans heart within.
@, western wind, do you think it was fair
To play such tricks with her floating hair'
To gladfully, 2leefully, DO your best,
To blow her against the youug mans breast
Where he as gladly folded her ill.,
And kissed her mouth AMI her Gimpled chin .
Q, Ellcry Vanc, YOU little thought,
An hour ago when you bcsought
This country lass to walk with you,
After the sun had dried the dew.
What perilous danger. you be in,
As she tied her bonnet under her chin.

Traits of the Elephant.

The Elephants not onI y obey their keep>
ers when present, but some, when well
trained, will, even in bis absence, per-
form extraordinary works 4 French
gentleman tells US that on one occasion
he saw two powerful elephants engaged
in beating down wall. for which hard
labor they were promised some fruit and
brandy, elephants being very partial to
spurious liquors. These elephants did
rot work separately, but united their
Efforts, using their trunks in very effec-
tive way, which were protected from injury
by thick covering OF leather they thrust
them at the came instant against the
strcnges, part Of the wall. producing vio-
lent and reiterated shocks, while they
carefully watched the effects Of their blows
AS soon as it was evident that the wall
was in falling condition, they made TO-
getber one powerful effort, and in an III
slant both drew back that they might not
be injured, when, Immediately after, ne
whole wall came lhundeling to the
ground.
To the honor Of these sagaclous ami
mails, we may add that they are very
grateful for kindness shown them A
soldier, at one of he British forts in
East Indies, was accustomed to give a
small portion Of bis rum TO one Of them
every payday. Having on one occasion
taken TOO much Of it himself lie became
exceedingly intoxicated, and was dscov>
cred by ali officer in this condition. For
this breach Of discipline, he vas ordered to
be seized and carried to the guard-room
The delinquent, percely!ng several soldiers
pursuing him, became alarmed. ard in
his terror took refuge under the very eIe-
plant he was accustomed 10 treat, and
fell asleep. The soldiers in vain endeav-
ored 20 drag him from bis asylum the
eiephan. would not allow it; aud, when
ever the attack was renewed fought
furiously, and defended the sleeping man
with his trunk.
The consequence was that the soldiers
withdrew, and left their comrade without
further interruption, TO his siumbe
After few hours however, he awoke, and
great WAS his terror when be found him
