Melt in the south wind as it blows;
Thy mantle is a rustling Leaf,
Gray MOSES mark thy frugal bed,
And sere grass hides thee, little thief.
Under Its scanty covcriid.
When did st thou blossom, pretty one?
Beneath Defenders emerald ice
Thy buds were small, thy leaves were dun,
The sunlight looked not in thine eyes.
Dh, tell me at what idle hour,
When other flowers arc folded mp,
Under what planetary power
Thy petal fills its scented cup.
Alack what heart had thou to smile
When the great hcmlocks SILVER so,
And oaks and naples frown the while,
And scowling beeches, to and fro,
Whipped their long arms to keep them tthc
And bring the thin blood to their brows
| marvel thou can'st be so blithc
With April to renew thy VOWS.
For April breaks them every year,
browning upon thee, puny thing,
And scarcely stops 10 kiss q tear,
If to thinceye tear should spring;
lie triles with thy rosy lips,
With icy breath he chills thy breast,
And freezes to the very tips
The leaves that nestle thee to rest.
Why should blame these? | have seen
So many maidens do the same,
Lettering amid the wintcrgreen
TO hear some April breathe their name ;
So have seen their pink grow pale,
And pale grow fadenng into white;
So shiyerod as | heard the gale
And felt the shades Of coming night.

of Restive Horses.

A correspondent writes: have valua-
bic mare ofvery high spirits. Last year she
began to be FESTIVE about starting, so much
so that it was dangerous to drive her single.
She was impatient to start, and if held in,
would rear and pitch abont, sometimes throw
ing herself down. Finding the matter be.
coming serious, undertook to cure her, and
succeeded perfectly
"Thc moius operandi is this: Let the dri.
yer have the entire charge of her, and take
pains, by gentle usage and kindness, to be
on good terms with. When she is to be dri.
ven let him harness her himself, talking to
and patting her during the process. When
all is ready, go to the head and stand, with
out holding ifpossiLle, till everything is in
the buggy but yourself. Now, holding the
lines, step back a pace or two. She viii
probably start. If she does, pull her up
without jerk, speaking kindly to her as
soon as she is still. II she backs up or rears
hold her by the head, but do not strike.her
Repeat the process till she is mad enough"to
stand still, and take that time to get in
Now, if you order her to start, she will prob.
make more trouble; wait, therefore, till she
ready-you can tell by watching her ears
then give her the word and let her 60. By
pursuing this plan few weeks a radical cure
may be effected ; this, at least, is my expe'
rence. One very important point is, never
on any account use any severity with horse
ofthat disposition it can never do any good
and is always sure to do hurt. 1t should be
remembered that, while it is ,Ievcr necessary
to give up TO horse, it is often advisable to
hu,nor them. '--Erchaagc.
