BY EMILY HUNTINGTON MILLER.
''What are you good for, my brave little MANI
Answer that question for me if you can
You, with your fingers as white as a nun,
You, with your ringlets as bright the sun.
All the day lpng With yo,tr busy contriving,
Into all mischief and fun you are driving;
See if yourwise little noddle can tell
What you are good fer--now ponder it Well.''
Over the carpet, the dear little feet
Game with pater to climb on my seat;
Two merry eyes, full of froie and glee,
Under their lashes lopked up unto me ..4.-
Two little hands. pressing soft my face,
Ore" me down close i'll loving embrace;
Two rosy lips gave the answer SO true
Good to love you, mamma !; good to love you !

out 'you threadbare juggler," and run on
through the little remnant of your disgrace

garI leprous liar, moral monstrosity, an
ungracious upstart wind-broken wrangler,
a yelping yahoo; hooted, hated, despised,
contemned, ridiculed, pointed at. cursed, alb
horred and scorned as the offscouring of all

TuE TREArnrSr OF Mr.. DAvn.-If Mr..
Davis should, In the Providence of God, sur
viye his treatment at Fortress Monros, and
not otherwise, the world will have the op-
portunity Of knowing how thoroughly the
United States has dsgraced itself by the
treatment fthis distinguished prisoner.
The execration which the whole Of Chris
tendon has heaped, for fifty years, on the
head of Sir Hudson Lowe for his brutality to
Napoleon, might have warned those who are
responsible for this outrage of the inevitable
verdict of History. And yet in what favor
able contrsst does the British tyranny Ap-
pearl Napoleon had the freedom Of an inland:
Davis the liberty Of dugeop. Napoleon
was constantly solaced by the presence Of
friends; Davis con6nemens, until recently,
was uncheered by human face or voice,
save that Of his jailor. Napoleon was, from
the first, allowed considerable sum for his
maintenance, was permitted to have ser
wants, and to surround himself with books
and with luxuries Of civilization: Davis was
long denied, and substantially is still denied,
any of these comforts, his cell being as bare as
the den Of wild beast. Napoleon was re-
lieved, as far as possible, from the presence
of his guards: Davis has the fact that he Is
prisoner drilled anu dinned into his memory
with every beat of his pulse. Napoleon was
never treated with violence, even In Ian
guage Davis has been handcufed and
shaclled like convict murderer who show
ed the temper of fiend and the ferocity Of q
tiger
Yet, Sir Hudson Lowe is the eternal re-
proach of England, while Edwin N. Stanton
is Secretary Of War Of the United States

WHAT NEwsPERs DO ron N0THi1G.-The
Following article should be read and ponder
ed well by every man who takes a newspa-
per without paying for it:
My observation enables the 10 state, as
fact, that publishers Of newspapers are more
poorly rewarded than any other class Of men
in the United States who invest an equal
amount of labor, capital and thought They
are expected 10 do more service for less pay,
to stand more sponging ard "dead heading,"
to puff and defend more people without fee
or hope of reward than any other class Of
men.
They credit wider aud longer, get oftener
cheated, suffer more pecuniary loss, are off,
ener the victims Of misplaced codfdence than
any other calling la the community. People
pay aprinters bill with more reluctance than
any other. II goes harder with them 10 ex.
pend dollar on valuable newspaper than
ten on a needless gewgaw; yet everybody
avails himself OF the use Of the editors pen
and the printers ink.
How many professional and political for
tunes and regulations have been made and
sustained by the friendly though unrequited
pen of the editor? How many embryo
towns and cities have been brought into no.
tice and puffed into prosperity by the press
How many railroads now 10 SUCCESSFUL ope,
ration, wsald have foundarsd but for tho
"lever that moves the world ?" In short,
what branch of industry and activity has not
been prompted, stimulated and defsRded BY
the prcssl
And who has rendered II more than mis-
cradle pittance for It's servicei The bazasrs
Of fashion and the haunts Of dissipation and
appetite are thronged with an eager crowd,
bearing gold Ia their palms, and the COM
modities there veaded are sold at i'm
mense profits, though intrinsically worthless,
and paid for with scrupulous punctuslity;
while the counting room Of the newspaper Is
the seat OF JewiIg, cheapeuing trade, orders
and pennies, II Is made point Of honor TO
liquidate a greg bill, but not Of disbouor TO
repudiate a printers t.ll.

WHEN I MEAN TO MARRY.
BY J. @. SAKE.

When do mean TO marry 7-Well,-
IT'S idle to dispute with fate;
But If you choose to hear me tell,
Pray listen while fix the date.
When daughters haste, with eager feet,
A mothers daily toll TO share;
Can make the puddings which they eat
Aud mend the stockings which they
wear;
When maidens look upon a man
As in himself what they would marry,
And not as army soldiers scan
A sutler or a commissary;
When gentle ladies, who have got
The offer of lovers hand,
Consent to share his earthly lot
And do not mean his lot of land;
When young mechanics are allowed
To find and wed the farmers girls
Who don't expect 10 be endowed
With rubies, diamonds and pearls;
When wives, in short shall freely give
Their hearts and hands 10 aid their
spouses,
And live as they were wont to live
Within their sires one-story houses;
Then, maiden-if I'm not too DID,
Reioiced to quit this lonely life,
I'll brush my beaver, cease to scold;
And look about me for a wife
