All to the rich, doth not belong,
Nor to the prond the whole world's peace;
Here in these woods are books and song,
labors and loves that never cease;
From care we revel in release.
And seek not what we could not find,
Glorj' in gold—but look within,
Hoping our harvest in the mind.
Not learning of-the learned sort,
Not wisdom of the worldly wise,
(We live remote and life is short,)
But such as comes to common eyes:
To’watch Autares at his rise,
The Greater and the Lesser Bear.

large quantity offering and few vessels on the way

Wise.men and true in cities dwell.
But ah, one dwells there—Discontent!
With whom to live, if less than hell,
Is like it: there of late I went;
To my friend’s door my steps I bent,
And found him pillowed!—not in pain,
But watchers by; he knew me not;
Midnight was brooding on his brain !
O God! that good man—O! for gold,
For gold that lather—friend—high priest
Of all the charities—had sold
His faculties, and now the least
Of all that ministered—his breast
Mightliave stood sovereign over him:
No motion in the mind—that brow—
Thought’s beacon tower, and now so dim!

THE NEW AND SUPERIOR STEAMSHIP
When I say that the street dress of the ma
jority of respectable women of New York to
day is dusgneting, I but feebly express my
emotions. I say the respectable women, and
yet, save to those who know them to be such,
their appearance leaves a wide margin for
doubt. The clown at the circus wears not a
more stunning or parti-colored costume; in
fact, his has the advantage of being suffi
ciently “taut”—to use a nautical phrase—not
to interfere with locomotion; while theirs—
what with disgusting humps upon their backs,
and big rosettes upon their sides and shoul
ders, and loops, and folds, and buttons, and
tassels, and clasps and bows upon their
skirts, and striped satin petticoats, all too
short to hide often clumsy ankles—and more
colors heaped upon one poor little fashion-
ridden body than ever were gathered in one
rainbow—.and all this worn without regard to
temperature, or time or place—I say this
presents a spectacle which is too dishearten
ing eVen to be comical.
One cannot smile at the young girls who
are, cine day—Heaven help them!—to be wives
and mothers. Wives and mothers! I say to
myself, as I see the throat and neck with only
the protection of a gold locket between itself
and the cold autumnal winds. Wives and
mothers?. -I say, as I see them ruining their
feet and throwing their ankles out of shape,
in the vain endeavor to walk on heels like
corks, fastened far into the middle of the sole
of their boots; and those boots so high npon
the calf of the leg, and so tightly buttoned
across it, that circulation is stopped, and vio
lent headaches follow. Wives and mothers!
I say, as I see the heating and burdensome
panier tackled on the most delicate portion
of a woman’s frame, to make still sorer con
firmed invalidism.

without -competition. If I seem to speak
harshly it is because I feel earnestly on this
subject—I-had-hoped that the women of
1868 would have been worthy of the day in
which they live. I had hoped that all their
time would not have been spent in keeping
up with the chameleon changes of fashions
too ugly, too absurd for toleration.
It is because I- want to be something, to do
something higher and nobler than a peacock
might aim at, that I turn heart-sick away
from these infmitessimal fripperies that nar
row the soul and purse, and leave nothing in
their wake, but emptiness. Nor is it necessary,
in avoiding “all tins, that a woman should
look “strong-minded,” as the bugbear-phrase
