WRITTEN FOR THE AMKSBURY AND SALISBURY (MASS.)
HORTICULTURAL EXHIBITION.
This day, two hundred years ago, ^
The wild grapes on the river’s side,
The tasteless ground nuts, trailing low,
The table of the woods supplied.
Unknown the apple’s red and g"ld,
The blushing tint of peach and pear ;
The mirror of tlie Powow told
No tale of orchards ripe aud rare.
Wild as the fruits he scorned to till
These vales the idle hunter trod,
Nor knew the glad, creative skill.
The joy of him who toils with God.
Oh ! Painter of the fruits and flowers !
We thank Thee for thy wise design,
Whereby these human hands of onrs
In nature’s garden work with Thine!
thanks, that from our daily need
The joy of simple faith is born ;
That he who smites the summer weed
May trust I'hee for the autumn corn.
Give fools their gold, and knaves their power,
Let fortune’s bubbles rise and fall;
Who sows a field, or trains a flower,
Or plants a tree, is more than all.
For he who blesses most is blest,
And God and man shall own his worth
Who toils to leave as his bequest
An added beauty to tbe earth.
And, soon or late, to all that sow,
The time of harvest shall be given,
The flower shall bloom, the fruit shall grow,
If not on earth, at last iu Heaven !
J. G. WHITTIER.
Flatfooted Courtship.—One long sum
mer afternoon there came to Air, David
son’s the most curious specimen of an old
bachelor the world ever heard of. lie was
old, gray, wrinkled and ugly, lie hated
women, especially old maids, and wasn’t
afraid to say so. He and Aunt Patty had
it hot and heavy, whenever chance threw
them together: yet still he came, audit
was noticed that Aunt Patty took unusual
pains with her dress whenever lie was ex
pected. One day the contest waged unu
sually strong. Aunt Patty left him in dis
gust, and went out into the garden. ‘‘The
beast !” she muttered to herself, as sbe
stooped to gather a blossom which attrac
ted her attention.
“Wliat did you run away for ?” said a
gruff voice close to her side.
“To get rid of you.’I
“A ou didn’t do it, did you ?*’
“No; you are worse than a burdock
bur.”
“You won’t get rid of me, neither.”
“I won’t, eh ?”
“Only in one way.”
“And that!”
“Marry me !”
“What, us two fools git married ? What
will people say V’
“That’s nothing to us. Come, say yes or
no ; I’m in a hurry.”
“Well, no, then.”
Very well, good bye; I shan’t come
again.”
“But stop a bit—what a pucker to he
in !”
“\"es or no ?”
“I must consult”—
“All right ; I thought you was of age.—
Good-bye.”
“Jabcz Andrews, don,t he a fool. Gome
back, come hack, I say. Why, I believe
the critter lias taken me for earnest. Jahez
Andrews, I’ll consider”—
“I don’t want no considering. I’m gone.
Becky Hastings is waiting for me. I
thought I’d give you the first chance. All
right. Good bye.”
“Jahez—Jabez! That stuck-up Becky
Hastings shan’t have him, if I die for it.
Jahez—Yes. Do you hear I Y.c-s!”
A Remarkable Incident—Reason Re
stored.—The Havana P/ ea^anotices a re
markable incident as one of the results of
tlie shock from tho recent terrible explo
sion ; no less than the restoration to rea
son of a lady of that eity, who had entire
ly lost her mind some six months ago, from
a severe and protracted spell of sickness.
During the whole of that period, she did
not recognize any one, not even her pa
rents and other relatives. When the ex
plosion took place, she was instantly
thrown into violent paroxysms, which the
family considered an indication of the
speedy approach of death. The parox
ysms gradually subsided, and all were re
joiced to find her situation quite the reverse
of what was expected ; her reason was en
tirely restored ! This case presents an
interesting question for our medical philos
ophers.
The Language of Love.—“Dost thou
love me V' asked a youth, in the holiest
hour of love, the first in which souls meet
and give themselves away. The maiden
gazed on him, hut answered not. “Oh ! If
thou lovest me, speak !” continued lie ; but
she gazed on him still, and could not.—
“Then I have hut dreamed of happiness, and
hoped that thou didst love me : hut now all
is over—both happiness and hope !” said
the youth.
“Dearest, do I not then love thee 1” {lie
maiden then asked, once and again. “But
why so slow to say it?” inquired lie.
She answered,“I was too happy to speak,
until I heard and felt thy pain.”
What Girls Should Learn.—After the
death of his wife, Sir Charles Napier re
moved to Caen, in Normandy, and did his
best to perform the part of mother to his
girls. Ilis aim was to make them relig
ious, as the foundation of all excellence, to
teach them accounts, that they might learn
the value of money ; work they were rich,
nor bo helpless if they were poor; cooking,
that they might guard against the waste of
servants, and he .able to do for themselves
in the event of a revolution.— Str IVm.
Napier's Life of his Brother.
A Young Virginia Artist.—The Rich
mond South says ; Quietly and industri
ously, hut without ostentation oc,paiade, a
young artist of our city is laying the foun
dation of a career which promises to be one
day of high renown.
Over the store In Broad street, owned
by liis father, Mr. E. V. Valentine lias a
delightful little studio, in which whoso dc-
lighteth in the fine arts may see many
busts, ancl among them, casts of the head of
Henry A. Wise, the Mayor, Sam Mordecai,
the artist’s own father, brother, and Mr.
James, the uovelist.
The last is a work of great excellence,
and of this we can’t give better proof than
the fact that Mr. James, whom all men
know to he a man of rare refinement, was
so pleased with it that he has secured it
•or the purpose of presenting it to the Duke
of \\ elliugton, one of his most particular
friends. Mr. James, too, has acknowledg
ed that it is the best cast of him ever tak
en.
I ho young artist is now at work on a
bust of Edwin Booth, and "tis really aston
ishing to see the rapid development of a
likeness after only three sittings.
Mr. Valentine, like Barbee, has studied
anatomy, and is now' carefully cultivating
a knowledge of the Italian and French 1^”
guages, as he intends going to Italy next
fall.
Mr. Valentine is not yet twenty years
of age. Ue has a brilliant eye, features
full of pleasing and intelligent expression,
and in his manners is graceful, affable and
modest.
English and American Railroads.—
I he editor of the American Railroad Jour
nal. who is now abroad, in correspondence
with his journal makes some interesting
comparisons between the railroads of Eng
land and this country. Much that is pe
culiar to the railways of Englaiid and the
United States grows, chiefly, out of some
difference between the two countries.
The long passenger car in use in tho Uni-
ied States is rendered necessary by its cli
mate. There is no mode of warming tho
English passenger car. Tlie latter, first
class, car is more comfortable than tho
American first class, hut to ride in it one
must pay twice the average charge iu the
United States. The fare in second class
cars in England equals just about three
cents per mile. Iu these cars you have
nothing warmer or softer than painted
wood work. In fact, there Is nothing hut
boxes with scats on two sides. The third
class cars are still more uncomfortable, so
as to correspond in grade and aspect to
the lowest class of travelers; the average
rate of fare in these is very nearly equal
to the first class fare on some of best roads
in America. In addition to a high rate of
fare, baggage is sharply looked after.—
For two fair-sized trunks, the traveler be
tween Liverpool and London has to pay
•'72.50 extra baggage. Traveling in Eng
land is at best twice as expensive as in
America. One excellence of English rail
roads is what is termed the fishing of the
rails. In the United States one great
cause of deteiioration of way, and of an
noyance to travelers, is the broken joint—
No two rails ever being upon the same lev
el, the head of each one receives a violent
blow from the wheels, wdiich soon abrade
and destroy it. None of this concussion,
with the peculiar noise caused thereby, is
ielt on English roads. Consequently, tho
rails upon them last much longer than up
on American roads. While upon the lat
ter, great care is taken to give the joints a
firm hearing, upon English roads the end
of the’rails is entirely unsupported except
by the fishing bars—the ballasting not be
ing allowed to touch this portion of tlie rail.
It is however very doubtful whether the
extreme severity of the climate in the Uni
ted States would permit tlie construction of
railways in the Northern States in a simi
lar manner. With four feet of frost in the
ground, it would he a difficult tliiug to
keep the track in the place in the winter
season. In the Southern States where this
objection does not exist, all the roads
should make use of the fishing bars. The
whole extent of the Mobile and Oiiio rail
road is laid with them.—Balt. Amer.
Important Verdict.—The Pittsburg
and Connellsville Railroad Company has
obtained a verdict against General Wil
liam Robinson, Jr., of Pittsburgc, for the
sum of $G,900. It appears, by a statement
in the Pittsburg Chronicle, General Rob
inson subscribed for one hundred share of
the stock of the Company in 1S56, when
General Larimer was the President, but
never paid up. The defence was, that the
subscription was made at the instance of
General Larimer, with the understanding
that General Robinson would never he call
ed upon to pay it, the Company desiring
only to have ihe influence of his name.—
It was further contended that the stock
had been transferred by General Robin
son to General Larimer, and by the latter
to the Company, and that therefore any
claim that might have existed against the
defendant was extinguished, and th^plain
tiffs could not recover. The jury, howev
er, thought otherwise, and gave a verdict
against General Robinson for the whole
amount of stock with interest. — Balt. Amer.
The Tomato—Its Properties.—Dr.
Bennett, a professor of some celebrity, con
siders it an invaluable article of diet, and
ascribes to it very important medical prop
erties :
1. That the tomato is one of the most
powerful aperients of the Materia Medica,
aud that in all those affections of the liver
and organs where calomel is indispensable,
it is probtibly the most effective and least
harmful remedial agent known to tho
profession.
2. That a chemical extract pill can be
obtained from it which will altogether su
persede the use of calomel in the cure of
disease.
3. That he lias successfully treated diar-
rhac with this article alone.
4. That when used as an article of diet,
it is almost a sovereign remedy for dyspep
sia and indigestion.
5/fliat the citizens in ordinary should
make use of it either raw, cooked, or in tlie
form of a catsup, with their daily food, as
it is a must healthy article.—Repository.
Discovery of Ancient Pictures.—Sev
eral fine fresco paintings, belonging to the
period of Giotto, and attributed by connois
seurs to the pencils of either Agnolo’Gaddi
orSpinello Arctino, have just been discov
ered at Florence, in the Convent of Carme
lite monks, by two of the inmates, who
with great patience and perseverance, re
moved the whitewash with which they
were covered, without injuring them in tho
least. They represent passages in the life
of St. Cecily, and Sts. Valerian, Tiburtius,
and Urban.
IIow Assault and Battery rs Punish
ed in New York.—On the 25th, William
Mulligan, who pleaded guilty to assault
and battery upon Hiram A. Webb in tho
Metropolitan Hotel, was sentenced in tho
New York Court of General Bessious to
pay a fine of $2,50, which he did. On the
same day a fellow named Donnelly plead
ed guilty of assault and battery aud was
sentenced to five years’ imprisonment in
the penitentiary. The ’limes says Doiir
nelly was a poor fellow, without political
influence.
