HEAVEN—By O. 8. P.
Oh1 let mo think of Heaven,
When clouds o’crcast the sky,
And angry storms arc driven
In drondiul fury by ;
When wavo on wave of anguish
Breaks o’er this troubled brenst;
’Tis then I sigh and languish
For Heaven—my peaceful rest.
Oh1 lot me think of Heaven,
When summer scenes are bright,
When ouoynnt hope* are given,
And foes may not affright;
When life’s young joys are dearest,
And life’s dark days are few ;
Then let that land, the fairest—
That Heaven—-be still in view.
Oh! let me think of Heaven,
When loved ones droop nud die;
When bleeding hearts are'riven,
And tears fill every eye ;
When at their grave, so iuoely,
I weep at eventide;
Oh, land of rest! there only
My foudest hopes abide.
Oh ! let me think of Heaven,
When gloomy death-shades fall,
In life’s cold, dewy even,
Like phantoms on the wall;
When Jordan’s billows gather,
In fearful grandeur near ;
Then let thy voice, “ my Father!”
In sweetest accents cheer.
Oli 1 lot nie think of Heaven,
When plunged beneath that tide,
Whose restless surges driven,
Shall mount the Canaun’a.aide*.
And when with rapture swelling,
The soul from bondage free,
Shnll pant for that bright dwelling.
Sweet Ileovcn 1 she’d think of thee I
Oh 1 let me think of Heaven,
When safe beyond the flood,
My ransomed soul forgiven,
Through Jesus’ pree : ous Mood ;
When dear ones, long departed,
Shall greet me : ” Welcome home,
Poor pilgrim, broken hearted 1
Thy Saviour bids thee come.”
[Charleston Courier.
Go and no it.—Go and do it—now,
this moment, instantly. Go, run. “ To
do what?” say you. The command
ments of God, all, every thing in the
Book, the great Book,the book of Books,
the Bible!
Whatever good thing thy hand find-
eth to do, do with thy might. “ Not
slothful in business fervent in spirit,
serving the Lord.” Diffuse light, life,
and glory, scatter widely the seeds of
benevolence. “ Wash you, make you
clean, cease to do evil, learn to do well;
seek judgement, relieve the oppressed,
judge the fatherless, plead for the wi
dow in a word,follow the golden rule,
keep thyself unspotted. Any thing more,
any thing less ? Go and do it.
tSW A young boy, of Marietta, about
four years of age, we are informed by a
gentleman of that place, who had been
in the habit for some time past of pro
curing bread from his grandmother to
feed his “ long-tail monkey, was recent
ly discovered petting a snake, holding
its head in one hand, and dropping
crumb of bread into its mouth. Of course
his pet was destroyed, but he alleges
that he has “ another long-tailad men*
key which they shan’t find out.
Don't Be too Clever.—The fact is, in
this very naughty world it will not do
to carry your heart upon your sleeve.
You must not be too confiding,too trust
ing—You must learn to say ‘No’ of-
tener, and, ‘Yes’ seldomer.’ * It is a
burning shame,’ says Simon Simple,
‘that the world will not let a man be as
good he might be,without imposing upon
him. And we quite agree with him,
but it is not the only burning shame in
the world, and the world reaps the har
vest of them when poverty says to me
and to Mr. Simple and others, Don’t
you be too good, old fellow, and be
made n tool of.
A Graliamite suggests the following
for the million in these hard times. He
says it can, at the option of tbe consumer,
be taken as a bread or a pudding:
“ Cut up four laths in a peck of saw
dust. When well mixed, bake it by
placing a napkin containing it. in the
sun for half an hour. Serve up with
sauce made by soaking a cedar shingle
in a pail of water.’’

WON’T TAKE TWENTY DOL
LARS.
Some waggish students at Yale Col
lege, a few years since, were regaling
themselves one evening at the Tontine,
when an old fanner from the country
entered the room (taking it for a bar
room) and inquired if he could obtain
lodging there. The old fellow, who
was a shrewd Yankee, saw at once that
he was to be made the butt of their jests ;
but quietly taking off his hat, and telling
a worthless little dog be had with him
to lie under the chair, be took a glass
of proffered beverage. The students
anxiously inquired after the health of
the old man's wife and children, and tbe
farmer with affected sympathy gave them
the whole pedigree, with numerous anec
dotes regarding his farm, stock, &c.
" Do you belong to the church ?*
asked one of the wags.
“ Yes, the Lord be praised, and so did
my father before me,”
“ Well, I suppose you would not tell a
lie,” replied tbe student. i
• Not for the world.’
u Now what will you take for lliut
dog ?” pointing to the farmers, who was
not worth his weight in Jersey mud
“ I won’t take twenty dollars for that
dug.”
“Twenty dollars! why he is not
worth twenty cents.”
Well, I assure you I would not take
twenty dollars for him.”
“ Come, my friend.” said the student
who with bis companion was bent on
haring some capital fun with the old
ir.nn, *• Now you say you won’t tell a lie
for the world, let me see if you will not
do it for twenty dollars, I’ll give you
twenty dollars for your dog.”
“ I’ll not take it.”
“ You will not? Here, let me see if
♦his won’t tempt you to lie,” added the
student, producing a small bag of half
dollars, from which he commenced count
ing numerous small piles upon the table
The farmer was sitting by the table
with his hat in his hand, apparently un
concerned.
The old farmer quietly raised his hat
to the edge of the table, and then as
quick as thought, scraped all the
money inio it except one half dollar, and
then exclaimed:
“ I won’t take your twenty dollars!
Nineteen and a half is as much as the
dog is worth; he is your property !”
A tremendous laugh from his fellow
students showed the would-be-wag that
he was completely ‘rowed up* and that
he need not look for help from that
quarter: «o he good naturedly acknow
ledged bout. The student retained liis
dog, which he keeps to this day as a les
son to him never to attempt to play
tricks on men older than himself, and
especially how he tries to wheedle a
Yankee farmer.
Free Trade.—One day, at a farm
house, a wag saw an old gobbler trying
to eat the strings of some night
caps that lay on the grass to bleach.
“ That,” said he, “ is what I call intro
ducing cotton into Turkey.”

KR0LLERI0N,
O'FOR CURLING THE HAIR. VO
F OR many years it has been the object of
deepest study with chemists ana others
to produce a fluid that, applied to the hair,
would cause it to wave and curl equal in'beau
ty to the uatural curl.
THE KROLLERION
Is the only article ever offered to the world
that will effect this most desirable object.
But three or four applications are necessary
to curl it as much os may be desired, and for
any length of time. From the many testi
monials of those who have used it, the sub
scriber does not hesitate to warrant the
KROLLERION to give satisfaction, and
prove as reccommended in all cases
The recipe for making, with full directions
for use, will be sent on the receipt of one dol
lar, post paid. The ingredients will not cost
over 12 cents.
