YOUR COMING.

 Happy am I. How lightly passed the maiden leisure That youth and freedom chose, The careless days of peace and pleasure, The nights of pure repose! So swift touch could set the tune aniSs So brief a shadow blot the morning sky Yet if the heart be made for happiness,
 Happy am I. love, your coming taught me trouble; Your parting taught me pain. My breath grew quick my blood ran double it leaped in every vein. Yet ah has lime outdone the lover's kiss. The look-the burning look-the low reply If there be all he holds of happiness,
 Happy am |. You lend to earth vague emotion; Myself stranger seems; YoHr glance is mixed with sky and ocean; Your voice is heard in dreams. The good 1 choose is weighed with that
 miss,
 My idlest laughter mated with a sigh, And moving only in your happiness.
 Happy am |.

Habit. of Some People.
| IPoughkeepsie Courier.l

The Co1yisy supposes there is not an individual =Ac has not some personal eccentricity-some peculiar mode oi speaking, gesturing, sanding or walking, that is all his own. People speak ol these habits as characteristics Perhaps they are; yet it seems to us they are more the result of habit than of character. DoIens of persons respond to any trifiing bit of information with, "ls that so Pa re- mark which seems to impeach the veTac- ity of the previous speaker, but is, in fact, only an exclamation. One lady says Really !" every time that di syllable cau by any means be made to do duty as an answer; and she is by no means toad of keeping still either-she loves to talk, Many elderly gentlemen take ofa their glasses when talking or listening, some play with them and others polish them with their handkerchiefs. A well-known gentleman has habit of laying down the law to his companions, and striking the fore6nger of his right hand into the palm of his left, every time he makes . point tor thinks he does) Another is accustomed to scratch his head gently with lead pencil when interested in con VGiSAiOn AuUkuCL IuOS uts uOSC' NNuy men chew the ends of their mustaches-- especially when angry; and many run their fingers through the,r luxuriant locks whenever they are exci,ed-which has a pompadouring effect that is frequently anything bot becoming. One well-knowR gentleman invariably raises his eye brows in conjucuon with his hat. Women have fewer of these peculiarities than men they do not care to be considered eccentric. and want to attract attention by their grace and beauty; not their lit- tie personalities. Still some of nature s fair daughters have amusing habits, One gently clasps one palm in the other whenever talking animatedly; another clasps her hands softly. Several have a habit of drawing their handkerchiets through their hands, and others draw their fnger-rings of and on. Many speak with their heads little oA one side "a dainty bird-like habit, and very fiattering to their companions. One or two always sit bolt upright when speaking, and iean back in their chairs to listen. Many ladies prefix each remark with "Well " and then go on steadily until break then they say Well !" and begin again :; and most boys address every one indis- criminaeely as "Say! You [" Some times these little habits are amusing, sometimes becoming, sometimes repul- sive, but always interesting.
