POETS CORNER.

There was time, so we are told
When men were arrogantly bold
Bold enough with gods to talk,
And bold, with goddesses 10 walk
And hand in hand, with them 10 roam,
Der feathery heath and silvery foam
| or seas and lakes that laved the Isle
Where they would ioyously beguile
The hours away,
II was indeed hspless day,
When one--a mOrtal--chanced to pay
His hearts best court at 5eauty's shrine,
But, for the love he thought divine,
A penalty, that made night
Appear rs ages in its flight
A doom as dire as hell could make
To cause all mortals thence to quake,
| Was his for aye
The god who ruled the upper spheres.
The region of the countless stars,
Pronounced his fate with hated breath.
| 1t was so cruel-a living death
To WOO his thirsty lips to touch
| The crystal stream within their reach
And then to mock him as he tried
To quenoh that thirst, in this sweet tide
Was death indeed.
| To mock him, rs he tried in vain
| The fruit so luscious now TO gain, ~
! The fruit that hung above his head
Ripened and juicy golden and red
To tempt monarch, so ripe SO sweet
To tempt qod. this fruit TO eat
But he, poor mortal, could never touch
This luscious fruit within his reach,
II would recede.
We take this occasion to say, that, If any
of our readers should notice a change for
the better in our poetry, they can account
for it i'll the pure, nice groceries we eat, and
the unusually heavy and satisfactory trade
we are having in the same, which has u
powerful tendency TO ''unlimber" the intel
lect and allow il to soar in the realms of
poesy, and garner therefrcm the choicest
morsels of ancient and modern lere for the
pleasure and edifieation OF our friends. -
That's the kind of cat we are.
Tantalus (from which our word tantaliZe
is derived,) is the young gentleman that
furnishes the subject for this poem. He (not
unlike many of our young men OF the pres
ent day), unfortunately fell In love with
goddess, and to punish his temerity one of
the gods (probably the old NAM caused
him to be placed by Il stream of pure sweet
water that receded from his lips every time
he attempted to quench his almost ungov-
ernable thirst and further to humillate him.
he was placed astraddle of n nice apple tree
limb, where there was an abundant of nice
juicy red apples (see poem), and being very
hungry (not having eaten his breakfast), he
attempted to pluck an apple, but like the
water il receded from him, thereby doom.
ing him to a living death. This poem
teaches lesson that all should heed, and
that is you see a great many groceries that
tempt the appetite, but the price is altogether
too numerous for your weak pocket. book,
and hereafter it would be well tor you TO
buy your groceries from the store Of A. Y.
Leake Il Co, who keep the largest assort-
ment Of all kinds Of Groceries, and sell them
SO all can buy, and have money left over
for a rainy day. This and next week they
will have in from the eastern markets
choice line of Fancy Groceries that they
will sell low. Nothing mean about them
but their prices. Please call in and see u.s.
