As the residence Of Mr.. Douglass was
only q short distance, we concluded TO walk
there. We found them growing uneasy at
our long absence, and when they heard The
cause they were much alarmed, but soon
grew merry when they found there was moth
ing damaged, excepting the wagon. After
sending servants to the care OF the horses,
Mr. Stanton accepted the inequalities Of
Judge Douglass, aud remained with US the
remainder of that night.
''Are you happy, CArrie?" said Laura one
evening about month after our last dinner
at Stanton Hall, as we sat enjoying the cool
breeze on deck OF noble steamer, and were
gaiiy dancing over the blue waves of the
broad Atlantic.

Only boy with his noise and fun,
Tbe yeriest mystery under the sun;
Az brimful of mischief, and wit. and Slee,
Az aver q human frame can be,
and AZ hard to manage as-Nnat! an, me I.
'Tis hard to tell,
Yet we love him we'll.
Only boy, with his fearful tread,
who can not be driven, must be led;
WHO troubles the DeighbOrs' dogs and cats,
And tears more clothes, and spoils more
Loses more kites, and tops, and bats,
Than would stock q store
For year or more.
Only boy, with his wild, strange ways,
with his idle hours, or his busy days;
With his queer remarks, and his ODD rephss,
Sometimes foolish, and sometimes wise,
Often brilliant for one OF his size,
As a meteor hurled
From the planee world.
Only boy, who will be a man,

If intemperance, or some fatal snare,
Conspire not 10 rob US of this our her,
Our blessing our trouble, oul rest, our care,
Our torment, Or JOY

large.
the ground Of the present application is that moro

SPoSGISG on THE PRISTER.-The following
from n Massachusetts, paper, is so true, that
we give it publication and Endorsement. It
says: ..-. r....-..... .- 10
A great many societies, associations, and
people generally, have queer notions about
printers. They think We can puff and pub
lish for nothing. Let us give YOU an instance
A man is desirous Of advertising, and after
making n contract for half dozen lines, and
heating MS down to half price, he wants to
know If We can't throw in an editorial puff,
which in itself is worth more than the adyer-
tisement. Would it not be- as sensible to ask
grocer to throw III pound of tea? People
forget that ink and paper cost money, and
they seem astOnshod If we ask pay for card
of thanks, a tribute of respect, or personal
communication, or anything that only inter-
ests few persons and not the general reader
They forget that it is the printers ink that
makes nine-tenths of their immense fortunes.
They forget that IL takes money To pay com
positors, to buy ink, type and paper; and
lastly, they forget even to thank you for work
ing for nothing, by grntuitously putting their
business or serving the public. Did you ever
hear anybody, Orany corporation, thanking an
editor for what he has done? Guess not!
