THE EARLY SPRING.

The tiny snow-drifts melting fast,
The breath of south wind floating past;
The crimson IN the maple shoots,
The golden crocus at the roots;
The yellow ON the willow wands,
The green of grass along the ponds;
The swelling buds, the blue birds note,
The dandelion on the moat;
The earthly color of the stream,
The warmer flush of sunrise gleam
The dampness of the upland mold,
The new life in the open void;
The song of bird, the hum of bee,
The dawn of woodland melody;
The brighter glitter on the hills,
The rapid rush of little rills;
The morning hoar-frost On the hedge,
The MONDAY drops upon the sedge;
The changing color of the vine,
The fresher hue of mountain pine;
Are things that tell to eye and ear,
That summer days are drawing near.

APRIL SNOW.

"What do you say to the snow to-day?'
'.Oh, the robins and roses coming.
For south-wind and sun will find the old way;
And the brown bees soon be humming.
You've had your revel-you've had your day
Oh, snow, it is time for leaving!
For never round paths of warm. sweet May
Should winters ghost be gr1evingn'
&c What do you say to the snow to-day?"
''Oh. the red in the NAPLES is glowing,
If still in the heart of Old woods you delay
The pale anemone's blowing
You've held your revel-youve had your day,
To the tune of the norih-wind's humming;
But there never was June yet that lost her way,
And the robins and coming,'

THE Courier-Journal says that
the new j. NJ. White, now being set
up at the shipyard of the Towards,
in Jacksonville, for the Vicksburg,
New Orleans and Bends trade, will
probably surpass anything in the
way of fine steamboat ever built in
the West or South. We looked at
the work yesterday, and examined
her outlines so far as she is finished,
and she is certainly all that the inge-
nuity and mechanical genius of man
can make to be beautiful and fast.
She will be 3l5 feet long, 80 feet
beam and II feet depth of hold-96
feet wide over all. Her machinery
will be the largest and most power
full ever built for any steamboat
Her cylinders will be 40 inches in
diameter, with II foot stroke. She
will have 10 boilers, each 81 feet
long and 40 inches in diameter. She
will cost when finished, upwards o.
$350,000, and will be the finest boa
that over troubled the waters of thu
great Mississippi river.

NEW WAY TO COLLECT TAXES.

Mofett's Bell Punch Register, now
the chief tax-collector In Virginia,
bids fair to be a very useful f.
nancial agent in collecting State
revenue. As most of our readers,
and some of our drinkers may not
know either the continuance or the
object for which it was devised, we
will explain it to them as best we
can: 1t is a little instrument which
all the groceries and drinking hou-
ses in Virginia are compelled by a
law af that State to be provided with.
1t is a little box with a crank at
tached to it, and every time drink
is taken at the bar or in the house
the barkeeper is required to turn the
crank. If a dozen drinks are taken
at the same time or any other mum
Der it must be turnrd once for each
drink taken. Every time the crank
turns bell rings lin the box to ap.
prise the bystanders that the law
has been complied with. In addi-
ton to ringing the bell the crank in
it's revolution registers by means of
a'punch, the number of times the
crank has resolved.
Now comes in the interesting part;
at the cad of each week the gentle
man who has charge Of collecting the
State revenue goes round, counts the
number of drinks registered, and COL
lects from the"proprietor of the sa-
loon two cents and half for each
drink.

doubt, that good navigation and
cheap freights can be maintained in
Red River all the year round. This
proven fact has stirred the managers
of the Pool Line, through its ener

Joseph A. Aiken, to make a hard
pull, and pull together, to procure
an appropriation for the improve
ment of Red River, from the present
Congress. This attempt will include
keeping the mouth Of Old River

Falls and jettying the bars.
