"Colored vinegars are banished from
the state; and, therefore, do not come in
competition with cider vinegar it so much
resembles. Baking powders containing
alum are also branded and sold on their

practiced by adulterating it with tallow

Mrs. HamIet.s Solilouny.

To bloom not to bloom that is the question.
Whether it's nobler in the mind to suffer
The sings and foldings of outrageous skirts.
Or take up arms, and legs, against our troubles,
And by opposing end them? To scorch, to race
No more; and, by race, to say end
The heartache and the thousand natural shocks
That modesty is heir to: It's contamination
Devoutly to be wished. To scorch, to race;
To race! perchance to fall; aye there's the rub
For in that blooming fall what rents may
TO mar my outer garments; there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns OF
style.
The oppressors wrong the loud girls contumey
The tangle of despised skirts, the lingerie dis
play; IS aiA
The indifference of dudes and then the spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When she herself might compromise make
With a pair of leggings? Who would petticoats
wear,
To grllnt and sweat under n weary life,
But that the dread of scme untold mshap.
The unfelled seam, the unsuhs tantial cloth,
Which tailors use puzzles the will
And makes us rather those clothes have
Than fly to others that we know not Of?
Thus modesty makes towards of ALL
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is si"klied DER with the pale east of thought:
And enterprise of great pith and moment
With this regard, their currents turn aWfy
And lose the of action.

Pigs make a greater increase of live

also have much larger percentage Of car

The Dreamer.

He loves to watch the waves at play Leap up the rocks with ceaseless roar, And see their snowy, showering spray Dissolve in pearls along the shore. The western sky is dear to him - When rosy day with twilight blends, And on the oceans purple rim
 The sun, a globe of flame, descends The white clouds sailing in the blue The white stars peering through the
 night, & He loves, because they bring to view The fringes of the infinite. 'c He hears the music of the skies, + The thunder's bass, the song of birds, And vainly tries to crystalize 1er His soul rich harmonies into words. And wandering in the autumn woods, Far from the sight of human face, His fancy fills the solitudes
 With shapes of beauty and of grace. What boots his idle dreams to those Who with unconquerable will Foil from the dawn till daylight's close To keep the world from standing stilli He smiles and says his dreaming tends To show the beauty of design; To shape mems lives to nobler ends, And draw hem nearer the Divine.s
