Though hope paints each morrow, and gilds with and -light, Still reality casts o’er their b-auties a blight, Though the waves of the future rush sparkling and el ur, When tli*y close round the present their aspect is drear, Though the v sionsof joy in futurity seem Like the smile of u star, —’tis but hopes’ fuiry dream. I have searched for lost happiness ever in vain, It will nc*v r lie found but in childhood again, Fur the (1< w ts are wither'd that hung o’er times brow, And the frown of and ;ep sorrow is visible now ; Oli! home of my youth time, sweet cottage of rest, l weep for the days that thy inmates mode blest. Farewell times departed ! iny mu sings are fraught With the days that come back at the bidding of thought, While the halo of memory sheds over lift’s gloom The enchantment that infancy knew in her bloom,.

Truth isstrnngc—stranger than fiction—[Old Adage. It never ra ins but it pours.— [ Old Adage. We know not whether it is that the landlords in the vicinity of this good city, either for ex tortion, or selling bad eider for good champagne arc doomed to suffer or not; but recent occur rences show very clearly that they have been the pray of the desighiug. Jtis only a short time since the story of the Old Clock told how completely a landlord at Harlem, was taken in and done for. We are inclined to think that the case, with which the trick was managed, induced the following to be played. There is on Long Island a very pretty and f sboiuble hotel, well known to many of our citizens fond of recreation in hot weather, and liked not less for the coolness of the sea view than for the admirable entertainment that the house affords—the choiccnessof the wines, and the agreeable manner of the obliging landlord. At this hotel a short time since, arrived a carriage with four young men. The landlord was at the door ; the gentlemen alighted. ‘•Ah Mr.—how are you ?” asked one. “How are you ?” inquired the rest. Mr. . replied quite well, and hoped they were the same. It appeared they were all quite wet), and i this point being settled, they adjourned to the 1 bar, and took a drink. i ‘we want to dine here,” said ozc of the gen (lemon. ‘•To dim',” said the limdlord, lifting up his eye Prows and Ids voire ill (he same dim'. “ l o dine, dim*,’ said ihe lliroo oilier gciilli men m as quiet and natural manner as n they really meant wlmt they said, which they realty did. “I he l.ict is,” sa.il Iho liisl speaker, that templed hy the liness ol the day, we thought we would lake a drive over lo see it you were in Ihe land of the living. So give us lae host you have got for dinner, and uon’t waste tun • in making apologies.” “Von could not have come more forii.i 1 ly,” replied the landlord, “i go to New-', market once a week oniy in dull season, and L have only this day relumed with a week’s sup ply. If von will amuse yourself with lishing for an hour or so, 1 will he ready lor you—You may perhaps raid) somelhing.” ‘i’erhaps we may.” “You are fond of sport.” “Very.” The gentlemen proceeded to amuse, them selves, but thought more of getting the.land lord into a line ttiait the, fishes. ’• he landlord meantime hustled about, rubbed ins hands in ! delight, and thought that the early conmii nre m lit of business argued a good and prosper \ oils season. lie accordingly did his host and lo I conceal his lack of dishes, covered the table I with a great prolusion of plate, as modern lash ! ionublcs do, who fcnsl the eye, rather ilian the ; appetite. It was a splendid affair. The liell ! rung. The gentlemen obeyed its summons. They sat.down to'dumer. After soup they j drank sherry ; with their meat, champagne ; j j and tvilh the desert, c uret. The landlord was I convinced, from the delicacy ol their plates, i they must be gentlemen. At liisl he wonder j ed that they knew him so well, as he had no j recollection ol having seen them before, bat he afterwards remembered that they had been several limes at his house during ihe last sent- , in or, and drank a great deal of wine, ’i hit re membrance was the more i xtraordinary as the gentlemen had actually never been there pie- . viously. After dinner Ihe oompa ty, requested the landlord to join them, lie did so —and right ! jovial fellows lie thought them and found them. ‘ ....licit jokes they cracked—such songs they sung—such storys they lolfl, and such a quail* tity of wine they drunk. ‘They were some thing like gentlemen. “What do you think of ihe Clock Story that has made so much noise m York V” inquired he. “Capital, capital, uint it,” said they. “0.l capital,” he rejoined. m “Such a neut shave, such a clean suck. To take in a landlord. Capital, capital.” “ es, bin he woilld’llL have taken me in.” “lie wouiU’ut,” “Till.” “You’re not to be done, eh ? “R dher—not.” “Not to be done,” said the first of tile gentle men.,, “Not to he done,” said the second. “Not lo ou none !” sum the third. “Not lo be done, no now you can fix it!” ex- Cljiimcd ihe landlord, in a uecided ana uignili ed lone ol voice, winch serveu to imply tliat Idle other laiiJ.oi ii w as not gated witli quite so much brain us hnuscif. •■well another bottle ol claret, and the bill,” said one ol the gentlemen, “it is gelling mle —we must roiu.n to town.

It is mine.” “You’re imsittjTuii flurry,” smd Tom “you paid the msi.” Tom appealed lo Joe for the correctness ol his sniteui. in, who sided with him, iiiiu Harry uppeuleu lo lull, Who Uorc out Ills stalemelil. This is u regu.ur hx,” Said lout, “ihe fact is Mr. L motord —out you don’t drink. Come geiKtanu.i, Dumpers round ! Tne lae■ is we go out a gieat ueal, aim lake it ill turns to pay. Capital piull lo lit it t Cmyour glass! ‘■(.apilitl!” saiu the Ultimo. d, (trailing on the contents. ‘■Now, whether it is,” continued Tom, “the potency ol your wtueoriiol, 1 don’t knuw, we ealit agree whose Ithll it is to pay.” “Never mmu” said Harry, “we can easily munuge that. Let the lunoiord be bnuuloiueu and wniehever he catches shall pay.” “Capital! tapitai” exclaimed ilic gentle men. “But, gentlemen.” exclaimed the landlord. “Capital, capioM !” shouted the g. lili’ iiieti, and the. more the landlord expostulated the more the gentlemen shouted “cnpi.al, capi tal!” “The table!” at length the landlord was heard to exclaim. “Nonsciiee ! when you git near the t. we w ill cry spoons !” “Spoons!” repeated the gentlemen and laughed. Never beiore was heard such laugh ing. At length the landlord was blindfolded.
