^oetrij. 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.’’ V. B.

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.” i Perfectly Clear.—“Pray. _ „ Professor, what is a periphrasis ?” States, in payment of Subscriptions for any “ Madam, i, U simply a dreamier cycle of oratorical sonorosity, circum- we€k ly, Tri-weekly, Weekly, Monthly, or scribing an atom of ideality, lost in a Quarterly, of all sections of the Uuion; which verbal profundity.’’ Y il1 ^ ™J**rded by mail or otherwise, as ——i— I directed, for the period designated, or to the Remorse is the tight-boot that pinches ful i remitted. tLa enla I “““^‘hersshould write plainly tha Name, the sole.
