^oetnj. For the Southern Watchman. Oh ! I -i. onld be a Poet! Oh! I woud be a poei. 1 And immortalise my name; My soul aspires for wisdom, And never-dying fame. There’s Homer, Virgil, Milton, Three great poetic men; Inspired with lofty sentiment, Who would not be like them f Oh 1 I would be a poet 1 With imagination strong. And trace the mountain scenery, In fancy’s wildest song. Oh I I would make each lofty scene Enchanting to the view; I'd picture ovorv tree and shrub, And flowers of brilliant hue. Yes, I would be a poet! And my thoughts should wander far, I’d dwell awhile on transient things, And every twinkling star. Frum thence mv soul would upward soar. To Heaven’s sublimest height; And I would paint each radiant form, Magnificently bright. I would write about my country In a bright and glowing style, For I would win the patriot’s heart, And each approving smile. And when my visionary soul Is call’d to sleep in death ; I would bless thee, 0 my country 1 Yes, with life’s latest breath. Augusta, Ga. LOUISE. The Things of Other Days. The pleasaut things of other days, How have they passed away! How faintly to our straining gaze Returns life’s sunny ray. As dew before the morning sun, Gems after gems depart, Hope’s blossoms wither, one by one, And fade upon the heart. The voices sweet of other years, Their tones so soft and low, That whisper’d music in our ears, Are silent, long ago. The hearts that shed our own The sunlight of their rays— The eyes that fondly, warmly shone, Are fled with other days. The pleasant things of other days. They turn them sadly back, To trace, amid the mist haze, Their bright and early track. They see the light of sunny skirs, They watch the opening flow’rs, And seek amid their crimson dyes, 'The bloom of vanished hours. ‘They steal with soft and silent tread, Thro’ memory's dim domain, Like shadowy spirits of the dead, Mourning for life again. The past hath op’d its mighty tomb, And o’er the present strays Those spectral forms, but ah! their bloom Has fled with other days. The pleasant things of other days, They never may return, Illumin’d with those sunny rays, That o’er youth brightly bnrn. Tho’ all the morning glow is o’er, StiU thro’ the twilight plays A blessed gleam, like that of Which lighted other days. SCENE IN COURT. Judge—Bring the prisoner into Court. Pete—Here I is, bound to blaze, as the spirits of turpentine said when it was all a fire. Judge—We will take a little of the fire out of you. How do you live ? Pete—I ain’t particular, as the oyster said when they axed him if he’d be fried or roasted. Judge—We don’t want to hear what the oyster said, or the turpentine either, What do you follow ? Pete—anything that comes in my way, as the locomotive said when he run over the little nigger. * Judge—We don’t care anything about the locomotive What’s your business ? Pete—that’s various, as the cat said when she stole the chicken off the table. Judge—that comes nearer the line, 1 suppose. Pete—Altogether in my line, as the rope said when it was choking the pirate. Judge—If I hear any more absurd comparisons I will give you twelve months. Pete—I am done as the beef stake said to the cook. Judge—Now sir, your punishment shall depend upon the shortness and cor rectness of your answer. 1 suppose you live by going round the docks. Pete—no, sir I can’t go round the docks without a boat, and I hain’t got none. Judge—Answer me; how do you get your bread ? Pete—Sometimes at the baker’s and— sometimes I eat taters. Judge—no more of that stupid inso lence. How do you support yourself? Pete—Sometimes on my legs and sometimes on a cheer. Judge—I order you now to answer this question correctly: How do you do ? Pete—Pretty well,I thank you Judge. How do you do ? Judge—I shall have to commit you Pete—Well, you’ve committed your self first, that’s some consolation. C.W.&H. R.

The first step to Ruin.—‘My first 6tep to ruin,’ exclaimed a wretched youth as he tossed from side io side on his straw bed in one corner of his prison bouse, was going a fishing on the Sab bath. I knew it was wrong, my mother taught me better, but I’d heed none of them, I did not think it would come to this: I am undone. I am lost. What a warning is contained in the above lines to Sabbath breakers! The wanton desecration of that holy day, may be looked upon as a light thing by frivolous young men; but it is not so. God in his Word and in his Providence makes it a very serious matter.—It is more corrupting to the heart than many suppose. It seems directly to lead away from God, and consequently to crime with a strange facility! Just watch the couise of the habitual Scorner, and you frill almost surely see him come to some bad end. Perhaps he becomes an infidel, and says, in his heart, ‘there is no God! yore, Iriff Stems. VARIETY, THE SPICE OF LIFE'.' An exquisite attempted suicide last evening, because his washerwoman iron ed the strings of his “dickey” the wrong way. Susceptible youth. When we lust heard from him his parents had placed his feet in a warm bath, made of rose water. ‘Jim, d> es your mother whip you ?’ ‘ No o o—but she does a precious sight worse, though.’ * What is that ?' 1 Why, she washes me every morn- >»g-’ Misfortunes are troublesome at first, but when there is no remedy but pa tience, custom makes them easy to us, and necessity gives us courage. Choose not your wives as you do grapes, from the bloom on them. It is said that bleeding a partially blind horse at the nose will restore him to sight; so much for the horse. To open a man’s eyes, you must bleed him in the pocket. There arc various modes of prevent ing colds. Mrs. Sourby uses a raw- hide. For keeping boys “out of the wet,” she says there is nothing like it. The March to tiie Grave.—What a mighty procession lias been marching towards the grave during the last year. At the annual estimate since the 1st of January, 185:1, more than 31,400,000 of the world’s population has gone down to the earth. I lace them in a long ar ray,and they will form a moving column •of more than 1,300 to every inileof the globe’s circumference.

A Cheap Luxury.—As a weary tra veler was wending bis way through the mud,out in a far west region of country,he he discovered ahead a young miden stand • ing in the door of a small log hou-e. He rode up in front of the house and asked the maiden for a drink of water; hr drank it, and she being the first woman he had seen for several days, offered her a “dime for a kiss.” The young maiden accepted the offer, and received both kiss and dime. The traveler was about to resume his journey, but the maiden never before having seen a dime, asked: *‘What am I to do with the dime ?” fou may use it in any way you wish,’ i! J q t j s yours.’ ‘That being the lied, TH give you back the dime and take another kiss,’ A Compliment to the Ladies. Waiter Savage Landor, now residing at Bath, England, in his81st year, became acquainted with Lady Blessington, at Florence, 1835. In Madden’s Life and correspondence of that lady, just pub lished,we find several letters of Landor’s, We make the following extract from one of them. He writes to Lady B., “ Can not you teach those about you to write somewhat more purely ? I am very fasti dious. Three days ago^l was obliged to correct a friend of mine, a man of fashion, who so far forgot the graces, to say of a lady, ‘I have not often been in her company.’ ‘ Say presencewe are in the company of men, in the presence of angels and of women.”— Transcript. Fat Babies.—Who does not love a fat baby ?—one of the real chubby kind —so fat that it can hardly see out oi its eyes? We frequently watch one of these human dumplings for hours, and are pleased to mark how good natured- Iy they always take things. If they roll over or fall down, it is all the same. If th2 nurse steals their taffy, or the large boy hooks the doll, little fatty rolls up his eyes, looks curious, funny, and gen erally laughs. It can’t cry! The near est approach to it is a suppressed whim per, which starts the tears and the grease at the same time; and when lamenta tions produce perspiration, the labor is too serious to be long continued. How docile is that fat baby ! Obesity is never obstreperous. If there be any doubt on this point we ask triumphantly—“was Daniel Lambert ever known to be ac cused of pugilistic propensities?—or was a fat baby ever knowu to hit his mo ther over the head with a poker!’ We are decided advocates of fat babies, and would like to see all the little sinners as obese as coons in corn time. There is one down in Florida, it is said, which weighs forty-pounds, and it is not yet ten months old!—What a luscious lump it must be ! Stranger: “Why did you kill my dog ?” Hunter: “ Because be was going to bite me.” Stranger: “ Why didn’t you use the little end of your stick? You could hare frightened him and not killed him.” Hunt: “ Why didn’t your dog come at me tail first, then ?" SHOES! SHOES!
