WINTER MORNING.

Bright the eastern sky is benming
On the earth's fresh dress of snow,
Flushed with sky tnts softly cleaning,
That no pencils touch can show.
Dressed in crystals, gay and shining,
Every branch both high and low,
All the diamonds hues combining,
Sparkles In the mornings glow.
SlnWly like a serpent twining,
Darkly blue, the waters flow;
While culors, like the pearl shells lining,
Tint the banks OF virgin snow,
Like the summer spectres frighled,
Darkly looms the evergreen
On the hillside dimly lighted
By the winter mornings sheen.
In the woods the jays are winging
Back and forth from tree to tree,
To the Cheery matin singing
On the merry chicadee.
The squirrels start up from their mapping
In the hollow maple tree,
Where the woodpecker is tapping
All around his reveillc.
Meath the torquoise vault go streaming
Crowds Of jctty crows-that fly,
Like Nights rearguard, from the cleaning
OF the rosy morning sky.
Up then, when the Nights reign closes,
All who llealth's great prize would seek /;
For though Winter claims no roses,
Still he plants them In the cheek.

To my Departed Father.


A eotemporary says,-'The following beau
tiful verses were written by the celebrated
"SroSEwALL JAcKsoS." They breathe the
very essence ofpoetry. Noperson Of taste can
read them, without being moved by the gen
uine iilial affection, so tenderly expressed by
the highly gifted author, while the heart is
touched with sympathy by the mournful strain.
The smooth dietion, and the charming melody
of the stanzas, fall like melting music on the
ear, while the imagination is stirred BY the
striking and impressive imagery Of tho poem,
the commencement Of which Is 90 weird.like
that it Oils the mind with awe and admiration.
How truthful aud striking are the two last
lines Of the fourth stanza. Mark how tenderly
the poet refers to his bereayed mother.
"TOrn like the vine whose tendrila curl'd
More closely round the falling tree"
There Is not In the whole range OF poetical
literature more beautiful coupet than this.
How sublime are the closing lines. Had the
great warrior written but this poem alone, II
would have stamped him as a genuine poet.
and prove to the world that men Of the finest
sensibilities are capable Of great personal brave
ry, and can WELD a sublimer influence on the
battlefield than those who are prompted to
action by mere animal courage" We feel
assured that the intelligent readers Of the
ADVOCATE will appreciate the poem.
| As die the embers on the hearth,
And o'er the floor the shadows fall,
And ereeps the chirping cricket forth,
| And ticks the death-watch on the wall,
see a form in yonder chair,
That grows beneath the waning light,
There are the wan, sad featnres-there
The pallid brow, and locks Of white.
My father when they laid thee down.
And heap'd the clay upon thy breast,
And left thee sleeping all alone,
Upon thy narrow couch of rest
| know not why could pot weep,
The soothing drops refused to roll,
Andoh ! hot griefis rid and deep
Whieh settles fearless he soul.
But when saw thy vacant chair,
Thine idle hat upon the wall,
The book-the penciPd passage there
Thine eye had rested last Of all;
The tree beneath whose friendly shade
Thy trembling feet had WANDERED forth,
The very prints those feet had made
When last they feebly trod the earth.
thought while countless ages fed,
Thy vacant chair would vacant stand,
Unworn thy hat, thy book unread,
Elfaced thy footsteps from the sand;
And widow'd in this cherries world
The heat that gave its lore to thee,
Torn Ike the Vine iehosc isndriis eHrled
hors closely round the falling tree.
Oh, father then for her and thee,
Gush'd madly forth the scalding tears,
And oft, and long, and bitterly,
Those tears have gushed in later years,
For as the world grows cold around,
And things assume their own real hue,
lis sad to find that love is found,
| Alone above the stars with you.

PAY UP.

ogy of life, we shonld, under the head
Of January first, see-"About this time
look for many bills" 1t is settling
time. All sorts of bills are coming in.
Those who have bills that they consider
perfectly good have kept them back
from presentation till this period; those
who have bills that they consider de.
cidcly bad make at this time a strenu.
Gus effort to realize them. Many man
at the first of January finds he owes
more than be thought he did, and many
others find that they have less to pay
with than they expected. The money
question of the year has to be faced, and
the problem Of making both ends meet
solved. To those who cannot pay, who
have been improyident' or spcndthrift,
there is nothing to be said except to ad.
wise them to do SO no more--advice by
the way, which they are not likely to
heed, and which is therefore scarcely
worth giving. But to those who eau.
We say PAY up" Put your money in
circulation, look over your accounts,
collect your own bills, aud endeavor to
commence the year with clean balance
sheet. Especially pay your small debts
those you owe to your doctor, your
tailor, your shoemaker, aud your trades.
men generally. Great injustice and
great harm are often thoughtlessly done
BY those who are abuudantly able to
pay, by the neglect of their small ac.
counts. The very insignifcauco Of the
amount in their estimation tends to
make them oareless about il. They
know they intend to pay, aud know
that they can pay, aud therefore put it
off. Rat what is . small matter to
them is large one 10 the creditor.
"Many mickels make muckle." The
personal and family bills that we make
are generally small ones, but their ag-
grega.e, owed by line ofcustomers, is
often the sole capital Of the tradesman.
You have been a good purchaser, he
knows you are safe to pay, wants con
tinuance Of your custom and does not
like TO press you. But he wants his
money badly. He owes bills that must
be paid if his credit is to be maintained
Therefore, pay up The prompt pay
ment within this month Of all the small
bills, owing by those who are able to
pay, would put an amount Of money into
circulation, that in its turn, running into
all the channels of trade, would relieve
embarrassments, revivify business, aud
give tone and confidence 10 the
commercial aspect Of the opening year.
Besides, if you pay, somebody else may
find that money coming to them, and
be able to pay you. So there is Justice
as well as selfshness in paying up.

Tran.Ialsd fr0m "a oId csrman Pap.r.


Nine persons sailed from Balse down
to Rhine. A jew who wished to go to
Schalampi, was allowed to come on
board and journey with them, upon
condition that he would conduct him
self with propriety and give the captain
eighteen krcutzers for his passage.
Now, it is true something jingled in
the Jews pocket when he had struck
his hand against it; but the only money
there was twelve kreutzer piece, for
the other was brass button. Notwith.
standing this, he accepted the offer with
gratitude. For he thoughtto himself
"Scmething may be earned even upon
the water" There is many a man who
has grown rich upon the Rhine.
During the first part of the voyage
the passengers were very laxative and
merry and the Jew with his wallet
under his arm, for he did not lay it
aside, was an object Of much mirth and
moekery as alas, is often the case with
those Of his nation. But as the vessel
sailed onward, and passed Thurengen
and 81. Welt, the passengers one after
another grew silent, and gaped, and
gazed listlossly down the river until
one cried -
"Come, jew . Do you know any pas
time that will amuse US I Your fathers
must have contrived many a one during
their journey in the Wilderness"
"Now is the time" thought the Jew,
to shear my sheep" And he proposed
that they should sit round in circle.
and PROFOUND various curious questions
to each other, aud he with their permis.
sion would sit with them. Those who
could not answer the questions should
pay the one who propounded them a
twelve kreutzer piece, aud those who
answered them perlinently should re
ceive twelve kreutzer piece.
This proposal pleased the company,
and hoping to divert themselves with
the Jews wit or stupidity, each one
asked at random, whatever chanced to
enter his head,
Thus for example, the first asked -
"How many soft boiled eggs could the
giant Goliah eat on an empty stomach. /"
All said that it was impossible TO ans.
wer that question, aud each paid his
twelve kreutzers.
But the jew said---'0ne for he who
has eaten one egg, cannot put second
upon an empty stomach. and the others
