THE CLOvE HABIr.

A Portland physician was called TO
attend lady patient who was evidently
suffering from the effects Of some viru-
lent poison. She presented al the
marked symptoms of one who was in
the most dangerous condition, requiring
prompt and active remedies. Upon in
vestigation, the doctor ascertained the
lady had been in the habit Of eating
cloves, commencing, rs many do, by
taking one occasionally. Then she in
creased her allowance daily, until she
was hardly ever without Glove IN her
mouth. When seized by this sharp at
tack she had consumed q whole quarter
of pound of cloves the same day.
After vigorous measures had been
adopted, and after a long struggle, the
lady was pronounced out OF danger.

THE HEIGHT OF THE RxDrcuzous

@<SA<1A4o~
Iwrote some lines, once on Q time,
In wondrous merry mood,
And thought, as usual, men would say
They were exceeding good.
They were so queer, SO very queer,
Laughed as would die;
Albeit, in a general way
A sober man am l.
] called my servant, and he came;
How kind 1t was Of him,
To mind a slender man like me,
He Of the mighty limbl
These to the printer, : exclaimed,
And, in my humorous way,
added las trifiing JEST,
There'll be the devil TO paw"
He took the paper, and watched
And saw him peep within;
As the first line he read, his face
Was all upon the grin.
He read the next; the grin grew broad
And shot from ear TO ear;
He read the third; chuckiing noise
Inow began to hear,
The fourth; he broke into q roar:
The NTH; his waistband split;
The sixth, he burst sye buttons on
And tumbled in Q dt.
Ten days and nights, with restless eye,
watched that wretched man,
And since. I never dare TO write
As funny as can.

THE DREAMER,


Men look at him askance and say
"Avagaristl'' and psss him by,
And yet they turn , note again
His faces rspt sincerity.
He seems left over from an sge
Remote and misty, full Of Ieams;
He does not hear our iron clapg,
He walks by sacred sylvan streams.
He sees Disns's golden hair.
The lips of Venus ripe and sweet, =
And round the goal he notes the fash
OF Atalanta's flying feetl
He breashes i'Lrfum3s of Araby,
And gusts from far Hesperidcs,
Low, over sultry fields he hears
The hum of Hybla's honey-bees!
Disturb him not, he gamers well,
His stores shall not be hidden long,
His heart, like some rich honey comb,
viii hurst with amber riils Of song.
