Tbrillng Verses.
The circmstances which induced the
writing of the following touching and thril
ling lines are as follows : A young lady
of New Yi*rk was in the habit of writing
for the Philadelphia Ledger, on the sub
ject of Temperance. Her writing was so
full of pathos, and evinced such deep
emotion of soul, that a friend of Iters ac
cused her of being a maniac on the subject
of Temperauce —whereupon she wrote the
following lines:
Go feel what I have felt,
Go bear what I have born—
Sink ‘neatli a blow a father dealt,
And the cold world’s proud scorn ;
Then suffer on from year to year—
Thy sole relief the scorching tear.
Go kneel as I have knelt,
Implore, beseech and pray—
Strive the besotted heart to melt.
The downward course to stay ;
Be dashed with bitter curse, aside,
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears
defied.
Go weep as I have wept,
O’er a loved father’s fall
See every promised blessing swept —
Youth’s sweetness turned to gall—
Life’s fading flowers strewed all the way
That brought me up to woman's day.
Go set, whnt 1 have seen,
Behold the. strong man bowed—
Willi gnashing teeth ; lips bathed in
blood,
And cold and livid brow ;
Go catch bis withered glance and see,
There mirrored, his soul's misery.
Go to thy mothei’s side,
And her crush’d bosom cheer ;
This own deep anguish hide ;
Wipe from her cheek the bitter tear;
Mark her worn frame and withered brow
The gray that streaks berdatk hair now
With fading frame and trembling limbs; i
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith in early youth,
Promised eternal love an<J truth, !
But who foresv ore, hath yielded up, i
That promise to the cutsed clip ; i
And led her lown,through love and light, \
And all that made her prospects j
bright, ,
And chained her there, ’mid want and
ssrife,
That iowly thing, a drunkard's wife
And s’amp’d on childhood's brow so
mild. 1
That with’ring blight, the drunkard's
child, i
Go hear, and feel, and see, and know, ,
All that my soul lia'li felt and known, ,
Then look upon the witie cup’s glow,
See if its beauty can atone— j
Think it its flavor you will try. j
When all proclaim, ‘tis drink and die !’ ,
Tell me I hate the bowl!
Ilate is a feeble word ;
I loathe —abhor— my very soul.
With st-ong disgust is stirr’d, J
Where’er I see, or hear, or tell.
Os the dat k beverage of hell !
Happy Women. i
A happy woman! is she not the very
sparkle and sunshine of life ! A woman
whe is happy because site can't help it— i
whose smiles even the coldest sprinkling !
of misfortune cannot dampen. Men make
a terrible mistake when they marry for
beauty, or for talent or for style; the
sweetest wives are those who possess the
magic secret of being happy under any
and every circumstance. Rich or poor,
high or low, it makes no difference; the
bright little fountain of joy bubbles up just
as musically in their hearts. Do they live
in a log cabin 1 the fire-light that leaps up
on'its humble hearth becomes brighter than
the gilded chandeliers in au Aladdin pal
ace ! Do they eat brown bread and drink
cold water from the well? it affords them
moro solid satisfaction than the million
aire's pate defoie gras atul acid cham
pagne. Nothing ever goes wrong with
them—no trouble is too serious for them
“to make the best of it.” Was ever the
stream of calamity so dark and deep that
the sunlight of a happy face, falling across
its fmbid tide, would not wake an answer
ing gleam! —Why, then, joyous-tempered
people don’t know half the good they do.
No matter how cross and crabbed you feel,
Mr. Grumbler, no matter if your btain is
packed full of meditations on “afflicting
dispensations,” and your stomach with
medicines, pills and tonics, just set one of
these cheery little women talking to \ou,
and wc are not afraid lo wager anything
slto can cure you. The long drawn lines
about the mouth will relax —the cloud of
set lied gloom will vanish and nobody
knows when, and the first yon know, you
will be laughing!—Why? That la an
other thing": we can no more fell you why,
than we can tell you why you smile in
voluntarily lo ludon to the first bluc-hird
j of the season, Mmng the maple-blowioms,
jor to meet a knot of yellow eyed dar.de
! lions in the crark ot a city pave Kloue. I
We only know that it is so.
Ob, llteee happy women I bow often
their tdendor shoulders bear the weight of
burdens that would smite men to the
ground ! how often their little, hands guic e
the pondeiotts machinery of life with anal
most invisible touch! how we look forward,
through the weary day, to their fireside
smiles! bow often their cheerful eyes see
couhur de rose where we only behold thun
der-charged clouds! No one knows, no
one ever will know, until the day of judg
ment, how much we owe to these helpful,
hopeful, uncomplaining women!
Family Intercourse at the Table.
To meet at the breakfast-fable, father,
mother, children, all well, ought to be a
happiness to any heart; it should be a
source of liumblo gratitude, mid should
wake up the wannest feclintrs of our na
ture Shame on the contemptible and
low-bred cur, whether parent or child, that
can ever come to the breakfast-table,
where all the family have met in health,
only to frown and whine, and growl, aud
fret! It is jrrima Jacic evidence of a
mean, and groveling, and selfish, and de
graded nature, whencesoever tlie churl
may have sprung. Nor is it less repre
hensible to make such exhibitions at- the
tea-table ; for before the morning comes,
some of the little circle may be stricken
with some deadly disease, to gather around
that table not again forever.
Children in good health, if left to them
selves at the table, become, after a few
mouthfuls, garrulous and noisy ; but if
within at all reasonable or bearable bounds,
it is better to let them alone; they eat less,
because they do not eat so rapidly as if
compelled to keep silent, while tho very
exliiliration of spirits quickens t Ire circu
lation of the vital fluids, and energies di- j
gestion and assimilation. The extremes
of society curiously meet in this regard.
The tables of the rich and the nobles of
England are models of mirth, wit, and
bonliommie; it takes hours to get through
a repast, and they live long If anybody
will look in upon the negroes of a well-to
do family in Kentucky, while at their
meals, they cannot but. be impressed with
the perfect abandon of jabber, cachintia
tion, aud mirth; dt seems as if they could
talk all day, and they live long. It fol
lows, then, that at the family table all
should meet, and do it habitually, to make
a common interchange of high-bred cour
tesics, of warm affections, of cheering
mirthfulness. and that generosity of nature
which lifts us above the brutes \Wiich per
ish, promotive, as these things are, of good
digestion, high health, and a long life.—
Hull’s Journal of Health.
Instruction of Servants.
The following is an extract from a letter
to the Christian Observer Philadelphia.
The writer, in these remarks, gives the
results of observation and experience,
which will commend his words to many
who like him are entrusted with the.care
of servants. Hesajs:
“J am greatly interested in the religious
instruction of the colored people of tho
South, and feel that every owner of slaves
should be engaged in this “ery pleasant
and profitable work—pleasant to the mas
ter when ho has discharged a duty requir
ed of him by tlio blessed \ybrd of God ;
pleasant to the servant when lie remem
bers that it is for bis good that this in
struction is given. It is profitable to the ■
master when he finds himself growing in
grace and in the knowledge of our Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ: profitable to
the servant when be finds bis evil pas
sions are more easily overcome, and lie
is growing in favor with God and man.
The religious intetconrse that I have
had with my servants since I began a sys
tematic comse of instruction lias been to
me a great source of comfort and joy. I
know of no means of grace which I have
possessed, that lias been more blessed to ;
my spiritual good ; and could Ibe made.to j
believe that this instruction would not in i
the future result iu good to my servants,
1 should be very unwilling to give it up
on account of my own spiritual me.
There are many trials connected with ;
it, but lam greatly encouiaged to perse- j
vere when I look back upon the last ten i
years, and find so many trophies of God’s
grace, which so far as human observation j
goes, is clearly ascribable to tho power of!
truth, though wielded by a weak apd un- !
profitable servant.
I would hero state in this connection ;
that there has been great inoral elevation |
among my servants: 1 find them more,
i honest, nioie truthful, more industrious,
more obedient, more sober, more cleanly, |
more intelligent—-in word, greatly itn-,
proved in every respect. ’
The Brokeraiid bis Clerk.
Many a man who has become a hard
ened criminal might have been saved to
society Ly a little tender symynthy ami
discriminate kindness in the beginning of j
bis vicious life. Few merf have grace to
act like llie broker iti the follow ing inci- .
dent, but sttcccs would follow often sttcli i
kindness:
It is easy to min and it is easy lo sa\e ,

j HuiaJ! sums were missed day alter day ; ,
J one qnatter, then fifty cents, then one dal- ]
liar, ilmi two dollars were mused. He
| wss rbnrgod with tbe peculation. The
broker showed him lion he eould detect
the abstraction of the smallest sum of
money : the young man stammered and
confessed. “Now,” said the broker, I shall
not discharge, I shall not dishonor you. 1
intend to keep you, and make a man of
you. You will be a vagabond if you go
along in this way. Now let me see no
more of this. He went to bis work. He
did not disappoint the confidence. He did
honor to his employer. And tbe other day
he was inducted into one of our banks in
an honorable position, and bis employer
became bis bondsman to the amount of
SIO,OOO. Had lie conducted as some would
have done—sent the boy away, proclaim
ed his dishonor—perhaps he would have
ended bis days in tiro State Prison, and
been sent to bis tomb in the garb of a con
vict. But a young man was rescued from
ruin who had been placed amid tho tempt
ation of money, ami fora moment was
overcome.
A Husbands Experience of a Strong
Minded Woman.
A worthy citizen of Maine, of fair social
position, good plain understanding and
amiable manners, entered into the holy
state of matrimony with a strong minded
woman. Our narrative is brief. She had
all tilings her own way, from the very first
hour. Her contempt for bis mental pow
ers improved every day. His very inof
fensiveness increased it —Her wishes soon
assumed the tone of command. They
lived for many years, and the ‘ grey mare
was universally acknowledged to be the
better horse. In Iter presence, and that of
third parties, he was rarely known to open
his mouth ; and he would no more have
I thought of giving an opinion upon any
subject than that of giving up the ghost.
At length his career of passive obedience
came to a close ; and Mbs Pop kin “had .
not the least doubt what killed him.”— .
Isis last, words gave something like color to (
Miss Popkin’s opinion. The Rev. Dr. i
Thun lerhoh attended him i.i his last mo- j
mmits; and the conversation between i
them lias been stated as follows : ;
“Dr. Pilldriver iuforms me that you are ]
no longer foi tins world.”
“I feel very nervous, and I suppose Ii
can’t staud it very long.”
“No, I suppose your e.nl is not very far
off. Il is an awful tiling to die.”
“Well I don’t know but what it may be .
for Rome folks.” ,
“1 hope you have made, your peace with
God. Are you prepared to meet the.
King of Terror ?”
“Well I suppose I am—l’ve live, it H:
the Queen for thirty two years.”

Good Effects of Proper Talking.
’The uncounted improvements, made by
man upon his embryonic state of barbaric
wildness, are most assuredly the resultants’
of the eternal God-principle in man,
which makes him know and act. This ]
Omnific, celestial essence, this everlasting
spirit from God, is the only agent in man ‘
truly capable of pure enjoyment ; and ’
this enjoyment is found only in discover
ing, understanding nnd employing the
eternal laws and principles of universal 1
action.
Tbe body in its desires is pointedly, aw- ‘
fully and destructively inimical to this only
good hi man, for when the gross appetites 1
have loose reins, reason is hurled from her
throne ; the emotional nature beastialized {
and the mind lie-gloomed in a starless night
ofig noranee.
Then “hear the conclusion of the hole
matter;” “ Talk properly,” and human 1
intelligences will be transformed into
Angels, and eavtiirinto a b/iss-Jil/ed Eden.
Foi as you talk so will you think ;and “as
you think, so will you be;” theu if you
talk rightly, you 11 think rightly, and if
you think rightly you’ll be right and il the
world was absolutely right, the Sbekinali
of God would soon hover over a sinless
planet of glory-covered perfection.
J. HENRY HAMMOND
I
A Thought for Youth.
The following beautiful and truthful
! language, we extract from an editorial-in
the New York Ledger, Robt. Bonnkr,
i Editor ane Proprietor.
, “The heart of youth is a wide prairie.
■ Over it bang the clouds of heaven lo
i water it; the sun throws its broad sheets
; ot light upon it, to wake its life; out of its
j bosom spring, the long season through,
| flowers of a hundred names and hues, twin
i i !, g together their lovely forms, wafting
i to each other a grateful odor, and nodding
! each to each in the summer breeze. Bitch
I would man be, would lie hold that purity
of heart which God gives him. Therefote.
O youth, guard yuiu hrart purinj. Never
lose it: if it be gone, you have lost from
the casket the most precions gift of God.
■ The first purity of imagination, of thought
! ami of feeling, if soiled can be cleaned by
1 no fuller's soap ; if lost, cannot be found,
j ihough sought carefully with tears. It a
| lintp he broken, art may remedy it. if a
light ba qtieneed, the flame enkindle it;
but if a flower be crushed, what art can
i repai'’ it ?—if n odor be wafted away
who can cclleet or bring it back ?”

Making Needles.
Needles are made nf steel wiro. The
wire is first cut by shears from coils info
the length of the needle to be made. Af
ter a batch of stielt bits of wire are cut off
they are placed in a hot furnacethen taken
out and rolled backward and forward on a
table until they are straight. They are now
to be ground. The needle pointer takes up
two dozen or so ofthe wires, and rolls them
between bis thumb and fingers, with their
ends on the grindstone, first one end and
then the other. Next is a machine which
flattens and gutters the heads of ten thou
sand needles an hour. Next comes the
punching of the eyes, and a boy docs it so
fast that the eye can hardly keep pace
with him. The split ting’ follows, which is
running a fine wirotlirougha dozen,perhaps
of these twin needles.
A woman with a little anvil before her
files between the beads and separates
diem. ‘They are now complete needles,
but arc very rough and rusty, and they
easily bend. The hardening comes next.
They are heated in batches.
Tim! of Life
A mail named John A. Stephens at
tempted to make if “cold corpus” of him
self Monday night, and to facilitate his
object tried to cut his throat with a bar
low. A gash some two incites in length
was the result of his surgical practice but.
it did not do the business. Being determ
ined to “jump the world to come,” he
procured a “cup of cold pizon.” and shal
low eel it. lie t hought he had consummated
liis object, and sought out a soft stone on
the side walk on Second street, where he
might breathe his last. But the arsenic
had the. same effect upon Stephen’s
stomach that Jonah had upon the whale’s
—he was seized with an irrepressible de
sire to “cast up accouuts.” A protraced
effort in that way relieved his stomach of
the poison. He was found by the police
and taken to the station house, where ho
remained all nig’it, and was turned out
yesterday morning, a hungry if not a dead
man. Domestic felicity- -too much hap
piness—is said to be the cause that prompt
ed him to the attempt. Poor fellow !
Seward on Love
“We love, and we ought to love our
slaveliolding brethren."— Seward's Speech
in Michigan.
“As thistles wear tlie softest down
To hide their prickles till they're grown
And then declare themselves, nnd tear
Whatever ventures to come near;
So a smooth knave does greater feats
Than one that idly rails and threats,
And all the mischief that he meant,
Does, like the rattlesnake, prevent.”
Butler.
The anaconda is said to fondle and
slaver its victims before swallowing them.
The “love” of Republicanism for our slave
holding brethren.” wo fancy, belongs to
the same order of affection. VVliat sort of
“love” can it be that advocator— •
“No co-operation with slaveholders iu
politics.
“No fellowship with slaveholders in re
ligion.
“No affiliation with slaveholders in socie
ty.
“No patronage to slaveholding mer
chan's.
“No guestship to slave-waiting hotels.
“Noie.es to slaveliolding lawyers.
“No employment of slaveholding physi
cians,
“Noaudiencc to slaveholdingclergymen.
“No recognition of pro-slavery men,
except as ruffians, outlaws and criminals.
“Abrupt discontinuance of subscription
to proslavery newspapers.
“Immediate death to slavery, or if not
immediate, unqualified proscription of its
advocates daring the period of its exis
tence. • .
“A tax of SGO on every slaveholder for
every negro in his possession at the pre
sent time, or at any intermediate time be
tween now and the 4th of July, 18C3.
“An additional tax of S4O per aniim to’
bo levied annually on every slaveholder
for each and every negro in his possession
after the 4th of Jrtly 1863.’’ — New York.

“Sam,’ said a late ruinistor of Drumblade
to Lis man of all-work, “you must bottle
the cask of whiskey this forenoon ; bnt as
the vapor from the whiskey may be inju
rious, take a glass of it befoie you begin, to
prevent intoxication,” Now *Bamticl was
an old soldier, and never was in better’
spirits than when bottling whiskey; and
having received from his master a special
license to taste, went to work most hear
tily. Some hours after theminisrer visited
