took it up, the mean ones defending
Deacon Hobbs, the minority backing
mp Deacon Brown. Jerry STAYED
manfnlly from Sary-but to make up
the deficiency that way. Sary came
over to Jerry's. Still Jerry declared
that he would not be morried ill that
wagon wheel was made good, and Sa.
ry said she wouldn't if she was him.
So, as there was no disagreement in
the matter, between the two-the old
deacon relented one day, and pulling
his straw hat over his eyes, he broughi
bran new wagon wheel, cousol
ing himself with the reflection that he
would take it out in borrowing the
wagon. 1t almost killed him, but
believe it made him better man. At
any rate, it made Jerry and Sary man
and wife.

The Thriving Family.

Our father lives IN Washington,
And has world of cares,
But gives his children each farm,
Enough for them and theirs,--
Full thirty five grown sons has he,
A numerous race indeed,
Married and settled. all, I've see, q
With boys and girls to feed.
And if we wisely till our lands,
We re sure to earn a living,
Aud have penny, too, TO spare,
For spending, or for giving.
A thriving family are we,
No lordling need deride us,
For we know how to use our hands,
And in our wits we pride us !:
Hail, brothers, hail. -
Let Dought on earth divide us.
Some of us dare the sharp northeast
Some, clover fields are moving:
And others tend the cotton plants
That keep the looms agOing.
Some build aud steer the white winged ships
And few in speed can mate them
While others rear the corn and wheat,
Or grind the -four to freight them.
And if our neighbors o'er the sea
Have ecr an empty harder,
To send a loaf their babes to cheer,
Well work little harder.
No old nobility have we,
No tyunt-king to ride us;
Our Sages in the Capitol
Enact the laws that guide us.
Hail, brothers, hail.
Let nought on earth divide us.
Some faults we have can't deny
A foible, here and there;
But other households have the same,
And so well not despair.
Twill do no good to fume and frown,
And call hard names, you see,
And 'twerc a burning shame to part
So fine a family.
IT'S but waste of time, to fret,
Since Nature made MS one,
For every quarrel cuts "a thread
That healthful love has spun.
So draw the cords of union fast,
Whatever may betide us,
And closer cling through every blast,
For many storm has tried us.
Hail brothers, hail
Let nought ON earth divide Us

low upon the health and mind we
