To UNCLE SAM snd Jerry Fiat,
Direct your way, and that with osre,
If you have messages to bear;

Young Jerry needs blushlng wife:
But hist! see the fellow blssh-

And will not his peace intrude.
Nor jar his quiet solitude.

Of blacksmiths now we have share,
Who mend pillow or shoe with care;

Or shoes q. horse for you or me.

"To punish ourselves for others faults
is superlative folly. The arrow shot
from another's bow is particularly harm
less until our thoughts barb it. It 10
our pride that makes another's cri.icisn
rankle; our self.wilI makes anothsr,s
deeds offensive; our egotism that il hurs
by another's self-assertion. Well May
we be offended at faults Of our own, hos
we can hardly afford to be miserable for
the faults of Others"

And next we name the Institute,
Where young ideas are taught to shoot;
And here we find Miss s. J. Cos,
Whose art in painting many know,
And Hattie Levings-not a Quaker
Assistants fair to II. s. Baker,
Dispensing wisdom to this band,
While NJ. E. Cady goes by land
He goes by land-perchanos by wa.
To see the farmers son and daughter,
Who now compose the district school,
In summer hot, or winter cool.
THE NORMAL SCHOOL.
Last, though not least, the Normal
Board
Will soon bring in jolly horde
OF would be tsachers-boys and girls
With dainty caps and giddy curls,
Who will Wisconsin, school-house run
Or sink behind the setting sun.

And now if business men are wise,
They'll go to MORSE and advertise;
The JOURNAL has its work begun
Its publishers-A. MORSE & Son.
Will gladly take your wood or dimes,
And keep you posted of the times;
They'll tell you who will buy or SELL
Who's doing ill-who's doing we'll
Who's gone to grass, or Lincolnshire,
Or what is done the coming year.
All for song, and sing it through,
If you will give them dollars t,oo;
Or one, perchance, if you would seek
Such knowledge brief, but once q week.

This poet hath his greeting sown;s
Broadcast on winter winds and main,

Nor will it stop till it arrive,
A twelve-month hence at 'seventy-6ve.
