Would You?

I'd like TO have home upon - -
Some slipping mountain side,
With stately walks and turret fair,
Lifting their peaks with pride;
With carved doors of cunning taste,
And windows clear and high,
And stately trees Of rapid growth, -
Whose top should reach the sky,
Would you? =:
would not have simple co.,a M
With pig-weel at my door.
With shelf TO hold my bread and cheese,
And rushcs on tho floor;
With tubs and pals and bright tin pans
Put out to catch the sun,
And where poor woman's labor, though
She try, is never done.
Would you?
III ike to hare soft silkcn robes, =
And jewels for my hair, -''';i ~
And have dainty maid whose art
Should always make me fair; :,
Who'd sing when I was weary, and
Would laugh when 1 was gay,
And help me make of all this life
One pleasant holy day.
Would you?
would not have coarse, patched gown,
With apron made of check,
And have to como and 60 ut some
Dull, dronish husbands beck;
And have to peel potatoes, and
Go out and weed the peas,
And then 60 down and scrub the floor
Upon my bended knees,
Would you?
If love is pleasant in a cot
Where poverty abides,
It surely must be better far 80
Whore Crnsus daily rides;
So I would be millionaire,
And know that all meet
Would like to be my heirs, when death
Bids me with haste retreat
Would you?

whom he had sold It. The law Of March Sd, 1858,
makes the purchase OF soldiers clothing, for the
purpose Of aiding and abetting desertion, apun-

is prinld fdcie evidence Of such intent; but when
the intent is disproved the penalty should mot be

The tide of emigration westward-already large
promises to exceed that of any previous year
Thousands, says Chicago letter, are coming into
the Mississippi Valley. Large numbers are cross'
ing the plains, of whom the bulk are bound to
Colorado, Montana and Idaho. The prospect OF
a comparative early completion Of the Pacific rail-
road induces many to await that event before jour-
neying to the Territories beyond, or to the Pachc
States Canada is contributing qnite largely TO
this tide of emigration, while the Eastern States
are doing their share. All the towns in the West
are full and overaowing, and reports come to US
from all quarters that there is pressing demand
for dwellings,, but very inadequate supply.
