O, Pa—who made this pretty flower, This little violet blue; Who rave it such a fragrant smell, And such a lovely hue! A change came o’er the farther’s brow, His eye grew strangely wild, New thoughts within him had been stirred, By that sweet, artless child.

A story is told of two travelers in Lapland, which throws more light must hasten to his relief.* And the rale which we adopt for our guidance in such cases will determine the ques tion, whether we are to be "happy. The man who lives only for himself, cannot be happy. God does not smile upon him ; and his concicnce will give him no peace. But he who forgets himself in his desire to do good, not only be comes a blessing to others, but opens a -petual fountain of joy in his own perpetual lounta bosom.—Dayspri A Carolina Yarn. One of the brilliant corps of corres pondents attached to that eminently read able paper, the N. Y. Spirit of the Times, contributes the following anecdote : We heard a good story of an old North Carolinian, who was, beside Magistrate, Sheriff and Wreckmaster, the proprietor ofa country store. Like all such stores it was the rendezvous of all the loafers in the village. These fellows used to be there every night, and often all night playing poker, generally, with Old Bil ly’s clerk, and besides drinking the old man’s liquor, spent his money, furnish ed by the confidential clerk. Old Billy suspected what was going on, and came down on them suddenly one night, and before they could hide themselves, got in the room. “ Nemiah,” got “jesse” but was forgiven, promising to “ sin no more.” “ Nemiah,” said Billy, “ never let a soul in again alter eight o’clock.” Ne miah promised obedience. The next night the crowd were at work as usual, and Billy thought he would go and see how matters went on. Accordingly, down he went and knocked at the door. “ Who’s there?” cried Nemiah. “ It’s me, Mr. ; open the door!” *• No d—n your head, (a favorite, oath) Billy told me never to let any one in after eight o’clock, and I ain’t a going to do it.” “ But Nemiah, it’s me, open the door one moment.” “ No, d—n your head, none of your gammon ; you sound mighlly like him but it won’t go down, so tra-ccl, or dod rot your head if 1 don’t give you a shot with Unsold blunderbuss,you humbug!” Billy wailed to hear no more, but started off like the wind, confident that Nemiah was a reformed man, and the next day doubled hit Tbc Used up Maa.

Ulnkins Auger-holes with a tiinilct. 44 My boy, what are you doing with that gimlet? ” said I, to a flaxen urchin, who was laboring away with all his might at a piece of board before him. 44 Try ing to make an auger-hole,” was the reply, without raising his eyes. Precisely the business of at least two thirds of the world—this making auger- holes with a gimlet. Here is young A, who has just escap ed from a clerk’s desk behind the coun ter. He sports his mustaches, his im perials, carries a rattan, driuks cham- paigne, talks big about the profits of banking and shaving notes.—He thinks he is really a great man—but everybody around him seeslhat he is making auger- holes with a gimlet Mr. B. may be put down as a distin guished professor of the gimlet. He was a farmer. His father left him a fine farm, free from incumbrance—but be wouldn’t be content. Speculation in corn and flour arose before him—for tunes were made in a twinkling;—so he sold out—bought largely—dreamed of the riches of Astor and Rothschild— no more work. But at last the bubble burst. The Irish wouldn’t stay starved —prices fell, and now Mr. B. has found out that it is difficult to make auger-holes with a gimlet. Miss C. is a nice, pretty girl, and might be very useful, too for she has in telligence—but she must be the ton— goes to plays, lounges on sofas, keeps her bed till noon, imagines that she is a belle, disdains to labor, forgets, or tries to, that her father was a mechanic—and for what ? Why, she is trying to work herself into the belief, that an auger- hole can be made with a gimlet. t^ailly Geiger. At the time Gen. Green retreated before Lord Rawdnn from Ninety-six, when he had passed Broad River, he was very desirous to send an order to Gen. Sum ter, who wts on the Waterce, to join him, that they might attack Rawdon, who had divided his force. But the General could find no man in that part of the State who was bold enough to undertake so dangerous a mission* The country to be passod through was for many miles full of bloodthirsty lories, who on every occasion that offered, im bued their hands In the blood of the whig*. At lenat'h Emily €?e ted herself to Gen. Green, and proposed to act as his messenger; and the General, both surprised and delighted,closed with her proposal. He accordingly wrote a letter and delivered it, and at the same the aid and advantages of the modern journal. There are numberless ways in which e man of business fs benefitted by en the glance of his paper which he takes in the morning, which we need it repeat. The advertisements may o ve him information *r suggest a val uable thought. The news department may intimate to him the direction which efforts should take, or the record of some stirring and sterling example of mercantile life may rouse him to those' endeavors which will'(conduct to tri- nphant success.

Gen. Taylor’s late letters have ut terly confounded the Democracy, who one time had hoped to have made pital out of his name and influence. Among other signs of the times, Hon. II. A. Mulenberg, of Pennsylvania, just peblishcd a letter declining to act longer as a member-of the Taylor Central Committee of that State. In this letter he says:— Reading, March 2, 1848. Sir:—I perceive by the papers that the late Taylor Convention, assembled at Harrisburg, has appointed me a member of the State Central Committee. peel fully beg leave to decline the appointment, and request you to have my name withdrawn. As long as the Taylor movement was Democratic one—as long as I believed the General to be a Democrat—I was his andid and sincere supporter. The course that I advocated at all times ,, that if he were a Democrat, it was the policy of the democratic party akc him its leader, as they had done with General Jackson. The cor rectness of his principles was, however, an indispensable prerequisite.
