A Dream to Dream About.

I dreamt a dream the other night,
When slumbers poppy chains had bound me
Bright memories, and hopes as bright
Came crowding in flock around me,
babe adieu to real cares;
1 gave the slip to solid sorrows;
And, buried in the nights affairs,
I never dreamt about the morrows.
Ny feeble fancy, as it seems,
Is nothing to be very vain of;
Yet now and then it brings me dreams
That / should like to dream again Of
I reckon for its own sweet sake,
This dream of dreams among the number,
And think it was shame to wake
So sudden from such slumber.
fear my efforts to portray
The leading features of my vision,
Like those of Bottom in the play,
Would lay me open in derision,
1t strikes me, though, as rather odd,
Throughout my speculative seheming zs
That thanks to Morpheus, drowsy god,)
never dreamt that was dreaming.

A few Facts about Fall.

This is the season of Fall-not offal
Fall is written in the leaves of the forest, but
not in the price of dry goods and provisions.
There isn't much ice in FALL but there is a
good deal of fall on ice
1t is the season of Fall with drunkards all the
year round.
Summer must be the season of pride for it is
said s'pride goes before fall. -
There are several kinds of Fall.
The maiden fall-water-fall knew man
once with the same disease. He had cataract
in his eye.
The drunkard's fall-down-fall. Thew gen.
orally 'fall-low in the footsteps of their prede
cessOrs.
The soldiers fall-fall ill., A number fall in
battle.
The singers fall-fal-setto. Wonder if they
wear a false set O. teeth?
The sections fall-dead-fall.
I'm Adams fall,
We sinned all'
The coward S fall-fal-ter, which is generally
followed by fall back.
A double fall-fall to- That the kind of q

about that for fear worse may befall me.-TAe-

LITTLE THINGS The preciousness of little
things was never more beautifully expressed
Little martin-boxes of home are generally the
most happy and coy; little villages are nearer
to being atoms of a shattered paradise than any
thing we know of, and little fortunes bring the
most content; and little hopes the least disap-
pointment.
Little words are the sweetest to hear; little
charities fly furthest and stay longest ON the
wing little lakes are stillest; little hearts the
fullest and the little farms the best titled. Lit
tie books are the most read, and little songs the
most loved. And, when nature would make
everything. especially rare and beautiful, she
makes it little-litte pearls, little diamonds,
little dews

Placing a Daughter at School.
BY MoTTE BALL.


81 have brought my daughter to you to be
w taught everything"
Dear madam We called for the purpose
OF placing my daughter at school; ;
She's only thirteen, | assure you,
And remarkably easy to rule.
I'd have her learn painting and music,
Gymnastics and dancing, pray do,
Philosophy, grammar and logic,
You'll teach her to read, of course, too.
I wish her to learn every study,
Mathematics are down in my plan,
But of figures she scarce has an mixing,
Pray instruct her in those if you can.
I'd have her taught Spanish and Latin
Including the language of France;
Never mind her very bad English,
Teach her THAT when you have good chance
On the harp she must be a proficient,
And play the guitar pretty soon,
And sing the last opera music
Even though she can't turn right tune,
You must see that her manners are hnlshed,
That she moves with a Hebe-lke grace;
For though she is lame and one-slded,
That's nothing to do with the case.
Now to you resign this young jewel,
And my words [ would have. you obey;
In six months you return her, dear madam,
Shining bright as an unclouded day.
She's no aptness, / grant you, for learning,
And her memory oft seems to halt;
But remember if she's not accomplished,
It will certainly all be your fault.

VTyO THE PEOPLE OF THE VALLEY.
Il OFFICE OF THE VALLEY RAILROAD,
Z Staunton, April 25th, 1866.
We wish at once to push forward the Line of
Railroad which is to connect the Potomac with
the Virginia and Tennessee Road. To do this,
we need to have stock taken in the Valley to the
extent of
ONE MILLION OF DOLLARS.
This we propose to have done on the following
terms: Two per cent of the amount subscribed,
to be paid in so soon as called for; thirteen per
cent additional, to be paid within the next three
years; the remaining eghty-fve per cent, to be
paid within the next ten years.
If this amount of Stock be promptly taken on
these easy terms we can effect negotiations which
will enable us to have its remainder taken bread
and which will enable at the same time to
raise the money for the Stock taken at home up
on the Bonds of the company payable in ten
years. -
It is unnecessary to say anything in regard to
the vital Importance of this great work. Every
property holder within reach of the Road appre-
ciates it.
1t may be proper to state, however, that cir
cumstances are more favorable now to the con-
struction of this work than ever BEFORE or prob
ably than they will be hereafter. We have al
COMPETENT CORPS OF ENGINEERS
to locate the Road from Harrisonburg to Salem.
They will commence operations early in May
Let our people aid, IN earnest, and we can prom
Use them the speedy completion of an improve
ment which will do more than any other in con-
temptation for the advancement of our interests.
The commissioners in each county will open
books of subscription at once and are earnestly
desired to have the stock subscribed promptly

The poet (Lucretius) saith excellently we'll,
1T is pleasure to stand upon the shore, and
see ships tossed uopn thesea a pleasure to stand
in the windows Of castle, and to see a battle
and the adventures thereof below; but no pleas
ure is comparable to the standing upon vantage
ground of truth "a hill not to be commanded,
and where the air is always clear and serene)
mists, and tempests in she vale below. So
always that this prospect be with pity, and not
with swelling or pride Certainly it is heaven
upon earth to have man mind move in chart
ty, rest in providence, and turn upon the poles
of ruth.-Lord Bacon

T EFFEL.S PATENT AMERICAN
Ia DOUBLE TURBINE WATER WHEEL
Manufactured at Baltimore, Md, by

-
The subscribers would introduce to the public
the above Wheel of which they are the sole agents
in this State, as the best economizer of water
known, and pledge themselves to furnish wheels
of this description that will at least equal in eff
cheney the best overshot wheel in existence
Among the excellencies of this wheel may be
enumerated the following:
1st 1t is cheaper than any other wheel of the
same power.
I'd. From its small size and diminished friction,
it has one-third more motion than any wheel OF
the same power.
Sd. It will use more or less water, and with the
same percentage of power to the amount of water
used.
4th. 1t can never be frozen up or affected by
frost in any way.
9Th. It has given the highest effect due to the
head and amount of water used of any wheel on
record as tested by competent civil engineers.
9th. 1t is completely finished before leaving the
place of manufacture, and adjusted for running,
and enclosed in an iron case, requiring only to
be coupled to the water wheel shaft.
Circulars containing cuts, explanations and tes-
timonials may be had upon application to the
subscribers.
