MHW for the Southern Watchmen. The Last Invitation. Come home, niy iove, corns boms again, The autumn it has past; foe winter too ii nearly o'er, The days are lengthening fast. Oh! come, for I have watched for thee, Since summer’s early bloom ; The spring will soon be here again, But I am still in gloom. Must I be sad and desolate, While all around are gay ; Without one friend to lean npon, And thou art far away ? Oa ! hast thou felt as I now feel. So mournfully and lone; Or bast tbou found another heart. More like unto thine own i If this be true, then fare the well. I’ll calmly bid thee go, Though 1 must love thee still the same, In sorrow, pain and woe. Ilast thou not found me true to thee, Through every changing year ? When quite forgot by other frit uds, Was I not always near ? Did I not break all other ties, To wander far with thee, When first*1 vowed to bo thy bride, And share thy destiny ; Hast thou forgot that solemn eve, When young, with hopes so bright, We stood before the of man God, So joyfully and light ? In after years const thou forget The gift which Heaven gave J A noble boy stands by my side. Both honest, true and brave. He often wonders why it is, You dwell from us apart; Wow Is not this enough to touch A Father's generous heart ? Then come, and brighten one Bad heart, That throbs for thee nlone; For thou canst never find again, A heart so much thine own. J#4- “I say, strapger,” said a cottage ar- I chin, in the neighborhood of Montreal to a Yankee pedlar, “don’t whistle that dog away.” “Why, he aint no use, no how—he’s too homely,” “O, but he saves heaps of work.” “How?” “Why, he licks the plates and dishes clean, so that we wouldn’t part with him, nohow; for our new dog aint got used to mus- | tard yet.” Narrow Escape.-—Getting away [from a Sheriff by throwing a somerset I through a four inch crack. A plain spoken woman recently visit | ed a married woman, and said to her : “How do you contrive to amuse your | self?" “Amuse ?” said the other starting, 1 “don’t you know I have my house work I to do?" “Yes," was the answer, “I see you | have it to do* but as it is never done, I conclude you must have someother way | of passing your time.” One of the best double puns we have I ever beard, was perpetrated by a clergy man. He bad just united in marriage a pair whose Christian names were re spectively Benjamin and Ann. ‘ How did they appear during the cere | noony ?’ inquired a friend. * They appeared both annie-mated and | bennie-fited,’ was the reply. , “ Now, gentlemen," said a nobleman to his guests, as the ladies leu the room, “ let ns understand each other, are we | to drink like men or like brutes ?” - The guests, somewhat indignant, ex- | claimed, “ Like men, of course." “ Then,” replied he, “ we are going I to get jolly drunk, for brutes never drink more than they want.” m ■ A Munificent North Caroli nian.—We learn by the Salisbury (N. C.) Banner of the 15th in9t., that Mr. Maxwell Chambers of that place, lately deceased, has willed to Davidson College $300,000, Mr. C. has always been a warm friend of the above Institu tion, and has heretofore done much for it—having endowed a professorship to be designated by his name. He also left 830,000 to the Presby terian Church at Salisbury.

Another important advantage that his thorough knowledge of all freights and rules of shipment enables him to instantly detect and correct any overcharge in the Bills of lading which in all cases has lo be done at that time, or be lost to the owner, in many instances greatly exceeding the com missions weeharge.

I N presenting this work to the public, the publishers believe that they are supplying a desideratum, the waut of which baa! long felt by toe reading community, mid especially,by the people at large.' No rther work, much less any other single vofnfiie, contains the complete and extended view of entirs American history which is here pre. sented. The plan and execution of the book s are entirely new'; the arrangement cf’the * various European Provinces under their. re spective national heads, and the subdivision of )bese into separate Colonies and States— due chronological order bein preserved— will, it is thought, make it of peculiar Value as a book cf reference, and greatly facilitate a clear and accurate knowledge of gstfatal history.

The character of tbe illustrations in.these volumes are of higher and more magnificent standard than has ever been attempted here tofore, being from designs by Darley, Bil lings, Wallin and Doepler, and elegantly colored, (except the portraits,) with.from five to nine different tints, true to nature, so as to impact a close resemblanoe to well- tini lied paintings.
