Troubles Of the Fruit Season.

Tho surfeiting we all undergo during
this season of fruit brings into action the
family pill box. It's a little singular how
much hunting has to be done to find that
box. The party who last needed its SER
vices doesn't remember where he left it,
and doesn't care to think of it at all, while
he whose turn now occurs isn't exactly
tortured to death by anxiety. We are not
quite sure but that there is faint hope
down somewhere in his breast that it may
not be found at all. He feels Jumps FORM
ing in his throat as he peers among the
bottles and boxes which constitute tho
pharmacy at his house, and when the box
finally appears, and he feels it in his hand,
there is a sensation at the pit Of his stom-
ach as if somebody was trying to turn
that organ over with an old brass candle
stick; some people swallow dose of pills
without qualm and afterwards 60 round
looking as proud and overbearing as boy
whose father plays in band, but the most
of us are more delicately constituted, and
counting out dose of pills while some
one else gets the water, and observes that
he doesn't see how any one can swallow
the awful things, is about as serious an
undertaking as can be found on record
There is something too awfully solemn
about it to describe. And it is . little
singular that while man can swallow
whole whortleberries, cherry pits, and even
buckshot, without any uneasiness at all,
yet single pill will catch in his throat at
particular ticklish spot, and hang there
for hours and make faces at his stomach.
And man in fix like that is not exactly
tho party we would select to concoct mot.
toes for festival.-Danbury Neus.

THE NEGRO AND THE MULE.-The
following anecdote, finely illustrative of the
characteristics Of two denizcns of the

Harper's Magazine: "Tho negro and mule
writes a friend in Clinton, Louisiana) are
inseparable companions in the Southern
cotton fields, and, like the Hawaiian
string and bow, useless each without the
other. The lazy Indifference and careless
cruelty of one, and wonderful powers Of
endurance of severe labor, bad treatment
and neglect of the other, complete the
compatibility of tho two races necessary
for the production of four millions OF
bales. A characteristic anecdote may be
relshed by those who have bad experience
of the two. Tho spectator had taken ref
uge from the suns perpendicular rays
under the shade of spreading beech, sub
tegnine (agi, and lay recumbent, enjoying
the fitful breezos and the sombre froth.
ness Of the country newspaper. Along
the dusty road which passed by this re-
treat came jogging a negro, mounted on a
| mule, both apparently fast asleep. AS the
somnolent pair approached the spot, some
wicked sprite of the place gave the paper a
| tlirt, which was sooner seen and heard
than the mule, as mules only know how,
instantly 'swapped ends and leaving tho
negro sprawling in the dirt, took his de-
parture under full sail. The negro, half
raising himself, and wiping the dust from
his eyes and mouth watched the retreating
mule for some time in silence, but at
length, unconscious of an auditor, gave ex-
preston to this philosophic soliloquy

ADIEU TO YOUTH.
BY AGRICOLA.


o halcyon days of youth, farewell!
Bright retrospect, adieu!
Blest time. when ecstasy's sweet spell
! Or'er my guvinescence fell
Nor hope can Ger renew:
Hence, visions bright - hence, necta
Ye golden shades, adieu.
Time meier again can mould the hours
OF exquisite delight,
When oft through dream-lands' fairy bower.
l culled sweet fancy's gilded flowers,
With buoyant spirit bright:
Hence memory. let by-gone scenes
Fer vanish from my sight.
FAREWELL sweet days, ye move rmore
Can bring to mortal view
The loved and loving oncs of yore,
Now landed safe on Eden's shore
The faithful and the true!
Nay, only memory's mental glass
Tier presence can renew.
0 halcyon days of youth, farewell.
Bright retrospect, adieu!
Ecstatic hours. mystic spell!
When heavens hottest smile erst fell
Upon my heart-lik dew
In sadness now l breathe to thea
A long and last adieu.
