SHORT PATE MT SER MON
ON
The Paym ent Of Debts
By DOW, JR.
TExr.-If ye are honest, honorable men Go
ye and-pay the printer. Anon.

Ny HEARERs-There are many seeming
triflss in this world which you are too apt
to overlook on account Of their apparent un-
importance, the neglect of which has plunged
thousands into the deepest mire of misery
and sunk their characters into inextricable
degradation. Among these ostensible trifles
that of neglecting to pay ones honest debts
10 the most common, and attended with the
worst Of consequences. 1t takes of all the
silken furze from the fine threads of feeling
creates sort of misanthropic colduess
about the heart-skims off oil the cream that
may chance to rise upon the milk of generos-
ity-an6 makes man look as savagely upon
his brother man as does dog upon one oil
his species while engaged in tho gratifying
employment Of eating his masters dinner
One debt begets ano her. I have always
observed that he who owes man a dollar ia
sure to owe him also grudge and he is al.
ways more ready to pay compound interest
on the latter than on the former. Oh, nv
friends, to be over head and ears in love is
as bad predicament as person eught ever
to be in -; but to be so deeply in debt that
you can't sleep Of nights without being hunt.
ed by the ghost Of soma insatiate creditor, is
enough to give o man the hydrophobia-
make him bite wheelbsrrow-cause it Ia
run mad, and cr.ate general CONSERVATION
among the lamp posts.
My dear frlends- the debt that sits heav-
lest on the conscience of q mortal-provided
he has one-is the debt due the printer. L
presses harder upon ones bosom than tht
nightmare-galls the scul-frets aud chafe.
every ennobling sentiment squeezes all th'
juice Of fraternal sympathy from the heart
and leaves it dr,er than the surface of roast
ed potato. A man who wrongs the printe
out Of single cent can never expect to en-.
joy comfort 10 this world, and may well hav
doubts of finding happiness in any other.--
He will be sure to 60 down to the grave or
Time shall have bsdecked his brow with tn

REUBEN AND PHRBE.
Br MIR. III, N. BLIFFKINs.
In Manchester maiden dwelt.
Her name was Phebe Brown;
Her cheeks were red, her hair was black,
And she was considered by good judges to DO by all
odds, the best looking girl in town.
Her age was nearly seventeen;
Her eyes were sparkling bright;
A very lovely girl was She
And for about year and half there had been
Young man paying attention to her BY the name
of Reuben Wright.
Now Reuben was nice young man,
As any in the town,
And Phebs loved him very dear
But on account Of his being'oblised to work for
living, he never could make himself agreeable
TO Mr. and Mrs. Brown.
Her parents they were resolved,
Another she should wed;
A rich old miser in the place
And old Brown frequently declared that rather than
have his daughter marry Reuben Wright, he'd
sooner knock her on the head.
But Phebe'S heart was brave and strong,
And feared no parents frowns
And as for Reuben Wrl ght so bold.
I've heard him say more than fifty times, that with
the exception of Phebs) he didn't care q
for the whole race of Browns
So Phebe Brown and Reuben Wright
Determined they should marry;
Three weeks last Tuesday night
They started for Old Psrs0n Webstsr's determined
TO be united in the holy bonds of mat rimony
though it was tremendous dark and rainsd like.
Old Harry.
But Captain Brown was wide awake;
He loaded up his gun,
And then pursued the loving pair;
lie overlook EN- when they'd got about half way to
the Parsons, and then Reuben and Phebe start
ed of upon run
Old Brown then took deadly aim
Towards young Reaben's head
But, oh 1t was q bleeding shame,
He made mistake and shot his only daughter, and
had the unspeakabe anguish of seeing her drop
right down stone dead
Then anguish filled young Reuben's heart
And vengeance cfazed his brain;
He then drew ansawful jack knife out,
And plunged it into old Brown about fifty or sixty
times SO that it was doubtful about his ever
coming to again.
The briny drops from Reuben's eyes,
In torrents pourd down.
Ho yielded up the ghost and died.
And this melancholy and heart rending: matter ter
inmates the history of Reuben ant Phsbs and
likewise of old Captain Brown,

E Men are born with too eyes, but
With one tongue, in order that they shosld

their conduct one would suppose that they
