She slumbered in a rocking chair, She occupied all day, And in her lap, half opened there. The last new novel lay. Upon the hearth the dying brands Their latent radiance shed; A flaring candle near her stands, With a crown upon its head. Her hair, which long uncrimped had been, Was hanging loosely round; A single curl by a crooked pin, On the side of her head was bound. Her gown, it had been white, I ween, But white it was not then; Her rulfles too, had once been clean, And might be so again. One slip-shod foot the fender presl, The other sought the floar, And folding o’er her heaving breast A dull red shawl she wore. The flickering light is fading fast, Yet cares not she for mortal things, For in her busy brain, The novelist's imaginings Are acted o’er again. But while.in this delicious nap, Her willing sense is bound, The book escaping from her lap, Falls lumbering to the ground. She wakes, but't is also to see The candle's quivering beam— Nor in the blackened coals can she Revive one friendly gleam. Then groping through the passage far, She steals with noiseless tread, And leaving every door ajar, Creeps shivering to her bed. Isl ISC E L L A N Y. [From the Common School Assistant.] T.O PARENTS. Would a farmer take a beautiful horse to be shod to an unskilful blacksmith,! that a penny or two may be saved! He will not; for says lie, “the nail may be so driven in the foot as to make it lame, and I shall lose my horse. No, I had rather give a few more, than run the risk of los- j ing my noble Charlie.” Two teachers apply for the school in the district. The one is ignorant, hut lie offers to teach for $lO per month; the other is experienced, hilt asks $39 per month. The parents meet, and the "$lO man is employed. That the young mind is a more delicate thing to handle than a horse’s foot is not perceived; and that the child is much more easily ruined by want of skill is never dreamed of. A farmer sits in his door and sees a stranger coming through the gate. The traveller approaches and asks the farmer if he does not want to hire a hand. The farmer answers, “Yes, if 1 can get one to suit me.” And then he puts the fol lowing questions to the stranger: “Can you drive team? Can you mow? Can you cradle,” (See. He is catechised most thor oughly. Immediately after another stranger asks him if “his school does not want to hire a teacher?” The only question which the farmer asks is, “how much do you ask a month sir?” We ask the reader to re mark the difference in the examination of two applicants. Again, the parent will either work with the hired mail, or get his son to do so to prevent the laborer from slighting his work or from wasting a moment’s time. Or lie will get his neighbor to peep over the fence occasionally, to see that the hired man does not sit down on his plough too often. But the same watchful parent will put a man over his children in the school house and never go near him for years! For the above facts I have never been able to account. 2nd!y. Parents will labor and live sparingly all their lives, to give their chil dred a "start,” as it is called. But selling 1 a young man afloat with money left him, is like tying bladders under the arms of one who cannot swim. Ten chances to one lie will lose his bladders and go to the bottom. Teach him to swim, and he will never need the bladders. Give a child a sound education, and then yon have given him a “start” that will ensure happiness and victory to the race. “A good education is young men’s best capital,” was truly and beautifully said by Miss Sedgwick. - And farmers, listen to Governor Everett, for he Has spoken the following: “Husbandmen, sow the seed of instruc tion, in your sons’ and daughters minds.! It will grow up and bear fruit, though the 1 driving storm scatter the blossoms of spring. Plant the germ of truth in the in fant understandings of your children — save—stint—spare—scrape—do any tiling but steal—in order to nourish that growth, | and it is little to say that it will flourish when your grave stones, crumbled into dust, shall mingle with the dust they cov ered; it will flourish when the over-arching [heaven shall pass away like a scroll, and [ the eternal sun which lightens it shall set in blood.” If a blacksmith should put a sign, “Watches mended cheap,” would you , take your gold lever to him? If you should, the quack having heard that the silversmith, rubbed, and picked, and ham mered the watch, would do the same?— jSo with the cheap teacher; lie takes the j 1 children, and rubs and pinches, and haui- I mers them, — but irnuld they keep time? j If a parent could stand on the shore of j the Atlantic, and with one blow knock out all the light houses, would he not he accountable for all the shipwrecks made during that darkness? And if the parent, through avarice or negligence, withholds from his child the light of truth, is lie not responsible for the crimes he may commit? 1 have always admired that law of the Icelanders, which makes the court inquire, when a child is accused, whether the pa rents have given the offender a good edu cation. And if not, the court inflicts the punishment on the parent. The parent that, at any rate, procures his child a good mind, well principled and tempered makes a better purchase for him, than to lay out the money to enlarge his farm. Spare the child in nick-nacks, toys, and play-games, in silk and ribbons as you please, hut be not sparing in his education. It is not good husbandry to make his for tune rich and his mind poor. THE GREAT WALL OE CHINA. The late Bishop of Caspa, M. Brugu iere, having been appointed Vicar Apos tolic and head of the Catholic Mission in Corea, traversed the most important parts of the Chinese empire, in the Chinese dress, and aided by Chinese Christians, to Tartary, before lie could reach his desti nation. The journal of his travels has been published in the Annates de la Propa gation de la Foi, No. 50. In the course of his journey, he passed the Great Wall, his description of which is somewhat at variance with those of preceding travell ers. “On the 7th of October, 1534, we arriv ed,” (says lie,) “at the great wall, so high ly extolled by those who know nothing a bout it, and so emphatically described by those who have never seen it. This, and the other wonders of China, should only be seen in pictures, to maintain their re putation. “’Fhe great wall has nothing remarkable hut its length, which is about 1500 miles. Its principal direction is from east to west; but a little to the north of Slianse, it tends to the west-southwest. This rampart, formerly covered with bricks, which have tumbled down, forms the frontier of three or four provinces, each of which, in Eu rope, would he a considerable kingdom. In the plains and ravines, it is a regular wall, fenced with battlements, between thirty and forty feet high. On the moun tains, I doubt if its height exceeds ten feet: indeed, on the heights, it is little i more than a ridge of earth, flanked by nu merous projections like redoubts; hut them is no person to guard them. There are I gates at regular intervals, for the conven ience of travellers, and the levy of transit duties. I passed through the gate which is called Chang Tekaku, (Cliangkeekoo,) on the road to Pekin. No one paid the least attention to me; the guards turned | their hacks, as if to give encouragement [to me and my followers. Were a more ! rigorous watch kept, it would he easy to j cross the wall on the mountains, or through the breaches which time lias made.”—[A -1 siatic Journal. j Mr. 1 Veld, editor of the N. Y. Despatch, tells a story in as rich and quaint a style 1 as any lord of the quill we wot of—for ex ample— “VV idower Smith’s wagon stopped one morning before widow Jones’s door, and he gave the usual country signal, that he wanted somebody in the house, by drop ping the reins, and sitting double, with his elbows on his knees. Out tripped the widow, lively as a cricket, with a tremend ous black ribbon on her snow-white cap. Good morning was soon said on both sides, and the widow waited for what was fur ther to be said. “Well, Ma’am Jones, perhaps you don't want to sell one of your cows, no how, for nothing, any way, do yon?” “Well, there, Mr. Smith, you couldn’t have spoke my mind better. A poor, lone woman like me, does not know what to do with so many creatures, and l should be glad to trade if we can fix it.” So they adjourned to the meadow. —, Farmer Smith looked at Roan—then at the widow—at Briudle—then at the wid ow—at the Downing cow—and at the widow again—and so through the whole forty. The same call was made every day lor a week, but farmer Smith could not decide which cow he wanted. At length, on Saturday, when widow Jones was in a hurry to get through her baking for Sun day—and had “ever so much” to do in the house, as all farmers’ wives and wid ows have on Saturday, she was a little im patient. Farmer Smith was as irresolute i as ever: “That ’ere Downing cow is a pretty fair cretur-^but—■” he stopped to glance at the widow’s face, and then walked around her—not the widow but the cow. “That ’ere short horn Durham is ndt a I bad looking beast, hut I don’t know”—an-' other look at the widow. “The Downing cpw I knew, before the [ late Mr. Jones bought her.” Here he sighed at the allusion to the late Mr. Jones, j 'she sighed and both looked at each other, j It was a highly interesting moment. | “Old Roan is a faithful old miltcli, and so is Brundle—but I have known better.”, A long stare succeeded this speech—the j pause was getting awkward, and at last Mrs. Jones broke out — I "Lord! Mr. Smith, if I'm the cow you want, do say so!" j 'l’lie intentions of the widower Smith j j and the widow Jones were duly published I | the next day, as is the law and the custom, j and as soon as thy were “out-published,” j i they were married, ! j Just in Time. —A young physician l | having tried in vain to get into practice, l at Inst fell upon the following expedient ! to set tlie hall to rolling. He sprang up-1 on his horse once a day, and drove at; full speed through the village. After the! absence of an hour lie would return and; [carry with him some of his instruments— I thinking if lie could impress his neigli | hors with the opinion that he had practice I they would begin to place confidence in j his ability. A wag who more than sus pected the deceit which lie was practising j determined to know the truth. He ac cordingly kept his horse in readiness, land the next time that the doctor gallop- ed by his door, sprang on his steed and placed himself on the young gentleman's trail. The doctor saw the man follow ing at his heels, hut did not, at first evince any uneasiness. At length, however, he thought it advisable to turn down a nar row lane. The pursuer followed on like an evil genius, but the doctor was not dis couraged, as another road lay a short dis tance ahead of him down which he turn ed. The other kept close at his heels, and the doctor grew impatient to return home. There was no house by tiie way, at which ho could afford any pretext for stopping. In the mean time his saddle bags were with him and he was otherwise equipped for business, so that he could i not return, in the face of his neighbor, [without exposing the secrets of the trade jin the most palpable manner. Every j hound of his steed carried him farther ! from his home; and the shades of night ; began to fall on hill and tower. Still the sound of horse’s hoofs were thundering in his rear, and he was driven to his wit’s cud: but just as lie turned the angle of a wood, lie heard a low moan. A man lay prostrate near *.he fence of a meadow, and blood gushed from a fearful wound in his arm. He had cut an artery with his scythe, and was in danger of immediate dissolu tion. The young doctor sprang from his horse and staunched the wound. Band ages were applied, and his life was saved, i The pursuer had also thrown himself from ! his horse, and as the physician tied the last bandage, he looked up in his face 'and said—“ How lucky* neighbor, that I ] was able to arrive just in time.” ! The wandering spectator was silent with awe, and after assisting the wounded I man home, he told such a miraculous j tale to the wondering villagers, ns secur ed to the young physician a reputation not only for skill but also for supernatural prescience. Thus did the merest acci dent contribute more to his advancement than years of studious toil could have done; and the impertinent curiosity of a waggish neighbor opened for him a path , to business which the most influential pat | ronnge might never have been able to ’provide for him.—[S. M. News. The following is from ‘A History of the Striped Pig, written by L. M. Sargent recently published in Boston. ‘Papa,’ said one of his boys to the dea con, ‘1 had a funny 'Ueam last night.’ ‘Well, Tommy, what was your funny dream?” ‘Why, I dreamed the devil came into your store— ‘The devil!’ ‘Yes pa, and that lie found you draw ing a glass of gin for poor Anibo James who has fits, and who broke his little boy’s arm the other day, because he cried when he came home drunk. And I thought the devil came up to the counter, and laid the end of his long tail down on a chair, and leaned over the barrel of gin where you were stooping to draw it out, and ask ed you if you wan’t a deacon. And I thought you did’nt look up, but said you was, and he then grinned and shook his tail like a cat that has a mouse, and said to me, — ‘That ere’s the deacon for me! and ran out of the shop laughing so loud that I put my fingers in my ears and woke up.’ [TERMS *3 IN ADVANCE. NUMBER 51. Marriage. —No vulgar maxim has prov ed more detrimental to female happiness than that a reformed rake makes the best of husbands —in almost every instance the direct contrary has happened. For, in the first place if the maxim were true, it is far from certain that matrimony wifi produce a reform. The vanity of an en amored female may flatter her that heT amiable qualities will effect a reformation, hut experience tells us that the reforma tion, must go deeper than that which is only the momentary effect of an impetu ous passion; it must extend to the moral principle; to the whole mode of thinking A rake is hut another term for a sensual ist, which in itself implies the quantity selfish-, he has been accustomed to sacri fice the best interests of others to his per sonal gratification; and there are more ways than one of trifling with the liappi [ ness of a fellow creature.—Further, the libertine has acquired a despicable opin \ion of the sex, and we know that matri j monial tyranny usually originates from n contemptible opinion of the female sex. j Lastly, in marrying a rake there are many [chances to one that a woman marries « | drunkard or a gamester, and these are perhaps the only vices that are never to j lie reformed. —We might* add, that with ! out some notion of religion, morality ha* | hut an uncertain basis—and what rake would he thought to entertain respect for [ religion ? | Deseiit or Califounia. — This im mense plain, the existence of which was ■ until very recently unknown, is situated i in the central part of Upper or New Cali ifornia, in Mexico. It is limited on the I north by a mass of rocks, which separate it from the head waters of the Lewis Riv er; on t!ic west by an irregular chain ot mountains, extending in parallel ridges, along the shores of the Pacific Ocean; on the east by the western branches of the Colorado, and on the south by the valley of the Colorado. Its area is equal to that of Virginia, consisting of an elevated plat eau, or table land, flanked on all sides by desents, more or less inclined, according !to their geological structure. In all its {essensia! features, this remarkable waste I resembles the Great Sahara of Africa.— It presents little else than an arid surface, broken at intervals by a few detached ! mountains, of limited extent, hut rising. [ in some instances above the region of per | pet mil snow. j From these mountains, small streams flow during the rainy seasons. On reaching j the plains, these torrents disappear in the [sand, leaving no other trace of their exis- I encc than the fragments of rocks, and oth er debris, which are home down by the current, and deposited at the bases of the hills. No region can present a more dreary and desolate appearance. A solita ry antelope or black tailed deer, wild in the extreme, and a few straggling Indians, j among the most wretched objects in cre ation, may sometimes he seen traversing } the plains. The country beyond the mountains which bound the desert on [ the west, is inhabited by numerous tribes !of the short haired Indians, They occupy the valleys of the Buenaventura, and hunt | the elk, antelope, black tailed deer, griz : zly bear, &c. Immediately adjoining the desert, on the northeast, is situated owe of the most extensive lakes in this part of the continent. In common with all other isolated lakes of great extent, its waters are strongly impregnated with rock salt, which abounds in the mountains on the | east. —['Fanner’s Geographical Notes. The London Sun relates tire following story as evidence of the social value of the gallows. The criminal was hung for the murder of an old pensioner; I “Taylor’s mother had an interview with | him on Monday. She asked him wheth jer lie wanted any of his clothes washed, I and he replied that the clothes he had been tried in would do very well for him. Neither of them appeared at all concern ed when the moment arrived for their sep aration. The convict’s father, an aged man, went to him on Tuesday, and, after some little conversation, the father told the convict, ‘To die like a man; and go to the gallows with the same firmness with which he had borne his trial and sentence.’ The unhappy young man replied, ‘I will, father;’ and so they separated. Taylor kept his word, and met his fate with com posure; thus securing the esteem and ad miration of his parents and friends- for his memory by the boldness displayed on his exit. The ignominy of the punishment is forgotten in praises of the ‘pluck’ with which it is met —to die upon the gallows is a trifle, but to ‘die game’ secures for the hero a pretty reputation among those very persons whom the wisdom of the leg islator seeks to awe-strike by a ‘terrible example.’ The gibbet has its laurels as well as the field, albeit they are‘worn with a difference.” The Northampton Courier says that hawkers and pedlers are carrying about all sorts of hushes and twigs for mulber ry trees. So look out.
