A LIFE ON THE OCEAN WAVE.


"a Life on the Ocean Wavef"
The man who wrote it was green;
He never has been to sea,
And wave be never has seen.
He never has seen wave
As it dashed Ger the vessels deck;
He never has seen a fire at sea,
Or been floating upon wreck.
He never has been aroused
From his mornings gentle doze
By the sound of the splashing water
As 1t fell from the horrid hose.
He never has heard a man
Scrubbing right over his head,
With noise sufficient to rouse
From the grave the slumbering dead.
He never has seen woman
Growing thinner day by dag,
And leaning over the vessels side,
Throwing her life away,
While the people look carelessly on;
Though in tears the woman may be,
And unfeelingly say it is nothing at all,
Only the roll of the sea.
And oh! he has never been sea-sick,
And crept into bed in his coat,
While every motion increased his "throes.
And his afeelings" were in his throat.
That man may have sailed in boat
In some puddle or in sound,
But if he has been to sea, and wrote
Such song, he deserves to be drown'd.
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1866-07-24
poetrg;
SUNSET THOUGHTs.

watched the summer night come down,
With silent step o'er hill and lea;
The sunset clouds were all aaame,
And all afame the rosy seal
said, to simply live seems joy,
To breathe this balmy air is bliss,
Oh, would that when come to die.
1t might be such night as this.
With heayen seemingly so near,
So filed with golden, glowing light,
The air above so fresh and clear,
The ground with countless roses bright;
Methinks that could yield my breath
Without a fear, without sigh,
Could the last scene mine eyes behsld,
Be such world and such sky!
But even as spoke the sun
Had called his feeting glory in;
sullen storm, with angry brow,
Came up where all the light had been;
A moaning wind came off the sea,
Would ell asinking heart with dread;
The night was dark with coming rain,
A raven tapped his wings o'erheadl
All me, sighed, tits ever thus,
The night will still obscure the day;
The fairest things the earth can bring,
Fen while we gaze viii fade away;
Each feeting hour its secret brings,
No mortal hand may hold the key;
The world is full of wondrous things,
And life like death is mystery.

THE OLDEST HoUsE-A correspondent
of the journal of Commerce, referring to
paragraph which has been going the
rounds, stating that the oldest house in
the United States stands in the town Of
Guilford. Conn, says there is in Med
ford. Mass, tive story brick house, built
in 1854, by the company of Gov. Mat
thew Cradock, the rich London merchant,
who was the founder Of Medford, and
furnished largely from his own means,
sending over shipwrights, masons, car
penters, cattle, &c., although he contin-
ued to reside in London. This house is
mentioned in Brooks history Of Medford,
as in good preservation. Its walls, yet
strong, are eighteen inches thick, and he
hopes it may become depository for a
historical society, and that it will stand
for century to come.

why Sam Never Married.


Sam, colared man, residing somewhere
in Berkshire county, Massachusetts,, by
good luck received fine start in the
world and soon acquired handsom prop
erty. When he had reached middle life,
friend asked him, one day, why he did
not marry, as man in his circumstances
was abundantly able to support wife.
'Oh, Iconsider myself too good to mar
~ niger wench," returned Sam, with a
feint to turn up his fat nose.
"Marry white woman, then" exclaim-
ed his friend, "the laws of Massachusetts,
allow it / think"
'I'll be hanged if I'd have white wo-
man that was mean enough to marry a
nigger, repliedSam, with huge gufa,o.

What the Age Wants.

A writer says: aThe great want of the
age is men. Men who are not for sale.
Men who are honest; sound from the
center to the circumference; true to the
hearts core. Men who fear the Lord
and covetousness. Men who will con-
demn wrong in friend or foe; in them
selves as we'll as in others. Men whose
consciences are as steady as the needle to
the pole. Men who will stand for the
right if the heavens totter and the
earth reels. Men who can tell the truth
and look the world and the devil right in
the eye. Men that neither brag nor run.
Men that neither swagger nor finch =
Men who can have courage without whist
ling for it, and JOY without shouting to
bring it. Men in whom the current of
everlasting life runs still, and deep, and
strong. Men careful of Gods honor and
careless of mans applause. Men too
large for sectarian hmits and too strong
for sectarian bands. Men who do not
strive, nor cry, nor cause their voices to
be heard in the street, but who will not
fail, nor be discouraged, till judgment be
set in the earth. Men who know the
message and tell it. Men who know their
place and fill it. Men who know their
duty and do it. Men who mind their own
business. Men who will not lie. Men
who are not too lazy to work, nor too
proud to be poor. Men who are willing
to eat what they have earned, and wear
what they have paid for. Men who know
in whom they have believed. Men whose
feet are on the everlasting rock. Men
who are not ashamed of their hope. Men
who are strong with divine strength, wise
with the wisdom that cometh from above
and loving with the love of Christ. Mer
of God"

Soup OR NoTHING.-At very excel
lent hotel, not hundred miles from our
parts, they were one day short of walters,
when newly arrived Hibernian was has
tily made to supply the place of more
expert hand.
"Now, Barney" said mine host, "mind
you serve every man with soup the first
thing-serve soup first"
"Bedad I'll do the same," said the
alert Barney.
Soup came on, and Barney, after help
ing all but one guest, came up to the
last one.
"Soup, sir?" said Barney.
"No soup for me, said the man.
"But you must have tit is the rules
Of the house,
"D--n the rules of the house?n ex.
claimed the guest. "When I don't want
soup I won't eat it,
"Well," said Barney, with all due
solemnity, ''all I can say is just this
it's the regulations of the house, an(
d--n the drop else will you get till ye''
have finished the soup"
The traveller gave in, and the soup wat
gobbled.

The individual who tried to clear
his cons cience with an egg,is now endeav-

he fails in this it is his deliberate inten-
