ADVANTAGES OF CRYING.--A French
physician is out in long dissertation
on the advantages of groaning and cry
ing in general, and especially during
surgical operations. He contends that
groaning and crying are two grand
operations by which nature allays an
guish that those patients who give
way to their natural feelings more
speedily recover from accidents and
operations than those who think it un-
worthy for man to betray such symp-
toms of cowardice as either groan CT
cry. He tells of man who reduced
his pulse from one hundred and twenty
six to sixty, in the course of two hours
by giving full vent to his emotions. If
people feel at all unhappy, about any
thing, let them 60 to their rooms and
comfort themselves with loud bohoo,
and they will feel hundred per cent
better afterwards. In accordance with
the above, the crying of children should
not be too greatly discouraged. If it is
systematically suppressed, the result
may be St. Vitus' Dance, epileptic fits,
or some other disease of the nervous
system. What is natural is nearly al
ways useful; and nothing can be more
natural than the crying of children
when anything occasions them either
physical or mental pain.
Probably most persons have expert
enced the effects of tears in releaving
Great sorrow. 1t is even curious how
1oa feelings are allayed by free indulg-
euee in groans and sighs. Then let

How they blusteT, and duster, and rave end

And knock at the window and bang ct the

In the most un3ignifed way!
Unbidden they enter the garden gate
In eddies, and whisks, and whi-is;
And as round the house they rush peil-mell,
Full many q ghostly tale they tell,
To the frightened toys and girls F!
The fercs March winds, the wild March

What chorus Of elm sounds
They make, Is they dart down the neares:

To jostle the passengers OF their feet,
A. they travel their daily rounds
They pull and tug at the old mans beard,
And redden the young mans nose;
They tumble the apple-stands down N the

Then whistle and scream as of they go
To startle the bellies and beaux!
The bold MaycA winds, the cold March

Though they strike to our bones
Yet the sweet little viole:s lift their heads
And the daisies start from their viltry beds
at the sound of the trumpet tones!
Yes, she rude Marc winds, the mad Nsrch

"a Repository of Fashion, Pleas
Ere and Instruction"
HA ER'S BAZAAR.

THE PUBLISHERS WILL COMMENCE.
l. on November Ist. the issue of HARPER's
BAzAR, Weekly illustrated Family Journal,
devoted to Fashion and Home Literature.
Their aim is twofold: to supply the existing
need of a Weekly Fashion Newspaper. and
to combine Herewith a first-class Literary
journal. which will be indispensable to every
household.
Arrangements have been made. at an i'm
mense cost, with the most celebrated of the
Fashion Papers of Europe. especially with
the famous Bazar of Berlin, which supplies
the fashions to the leading journals of Paris,
to furnish the same to them in advance, SO
that henceforth the fashions will appear in
HARPERs BAzAR, simultaneously with their
publication in Paris and Berlin-an advant-
age ,erjoyed by no other journal in the
country.
The patrons of HARPER's Bazaar will re-
ceive every fortnight large pattern-plates,
containing from forty to fifty full-sized pat
terms of ladies', misses, and chldren's bon
nets, cloaks. dresses, under clothing. and
other articles, accompanied with the neces-
sary descriptions and directions, and occa-
sionally an elegant Colored Fashion Plate Of

A PAPER BoAT.-They have "pa-
per" race-boat in Portland. 1t is thir-
ty-one and half feet long, twelve
inches wide, and weighs but twenty two
pounds. The lightess wooden boat of
similar dimensions weighed forty-one
pounds. The most singular part Of the
matter is that the paper boat is four
times stronger than one of wood. All
that portion where the scullter sits, is
gas tight, 80 that in the event of E race
sufficient gas may be taken into it to re-
duce its weight to eight pounds. A man
pulling in boat weighing but eight
pounds, is something to think of with
astonishmsnt.

One kiss, dea- maid said, and sighed;
Your scorn the little boon denied.
All 4! why refuse the blameless blisss
Can danger lurk within kiss
Yon 7iewless wanderer of the vale,
The spirit of the western gale,
At mornings break, at evenings close,
Inhales the sweetness OF the rose,
And hovers o'e- the uninjured bloom,
Signing back the soft perfume;
Vigor TO the zephyr's wing
Her nectar breathing kisses fling;
And the glitter Of the dew
Scatters on the roses hue.
Bashful, 10, she bends her head,
And darts blush of deeper red.
Too we'll those lovely lips disclose
The triumphs of the opening rose:
o fair! o graceful bid them prove
As passive to the breath of love.
In tender accents faint and low,
Well pleased. hear the whispered mo =
The whispered "No !"-how little meant
Sweet falsehood that endears consent
For on those lovely lips the while
Dawns the soft relenting smile,
And tempts with feigned discussion coy
The gentle violence of joy.
