SPRINGS ENTREE.
FROM THE GERMAN OF WILHELM MCLLF.R.
Haste ! open window, open heart !
Quickly, O quickly!
Old winter teek-) a parage out;
He fidgets anxiously about,
Up stairs and down with bustling air,
And picks his duds up hete and there ;
Quickly, O quickly!
Ilaste ! open window, open heart!
Quickly, 0 quickly!
He’s np.ed young rfpruig before the door,
He knows his madcap-pranks of yore ;
To tweak his ear were sport, I trow,
Or pluck his reverend beard of snow ;
Quickly, 0 quickly !
Haste ! open window, open heart!
Quickly, O quickly !
Spring knocks already at the door—
Hark ! ’tis his cheering voice once more !
He knocks with all the force he may
With his little meadow-fiower hoquet ;
Quickly, 0 quickly!
Haste ! open window, open heart
Quickly, O quickly !
And it you a.e not prompt to hear,
He has his train of servants near;
He’ll summon them to help his will
And knock and beat more loudly still;
Quickyi, O quickly !
Haste ! open window, open heart !
Quickly, O quickly!
Ho ! morning-breeze, his herald, view,
A pufi'd cheeked boy of rosy hue ;
He sounds till all things stir and ring,
For entrance to his master, Spring ;
Quickly, 0 quickly!
Haste ! open window, open heart!
Quickly, O quickly!
The brave knight, sunshine, now appears
And breaks his way with golden spears ;
While the soft flatterer, flower-breath, slinks
Through narrowest crevices and chinks
Quickly, O quickly!
Haste ! open window, open heart!
Quickly, O quickly !
Now sounds the onset Philomel :
And hatk ! and hark ! an echo’s swell,
An echo from my inmost breast,
In in, sweet Spring-joy, welcome guest !
Quickly, 0 quickly!
THE MAY-TREE.
From “Bohemian Poems,” translated by A. il. VVratis-
Jaw, London, 1849.
A May-tree fair at Whitsuntide
Was brought me by my lover,
It was the fairest pine he could
In all the grove discover.
E’en as a fbh’s eye, the moon
Doth in my chamber shine ;
I see him from the window, and
His feelings well divine.
He at the window knocked, and “Grant,
O, grant one kiss !” he cried,
But like a little mouse beneath
The coverlet I hide.
Right eye above the coverlet
Seems fast asleep to be,
Left eye beneath the coverlet
Laughs at him merrily.
He calls again : not so the stag
Thirsts for the cooling tide,
Not so the bee that longing seeks
For honey far and wide.
But in my chamber ’twas as still
As though a grave it were,
Only the beating of my heart
Betrayed that I was there.
Long time lie knocked, long time hecalled,
At length the suer went,
His lovely voice though conquered me,
And to the window sent.
A little bit I raise it up,
I think that he has tied—
He catches me, he kisses me,
Until my neck is red.

FRESH AIR.
Man acts strangely. Although a cur
rent ot fresh air is the life of his verv
lungs he seems indefatigable in the ex
ercise ot his inventive powers to de
prive himself of this heavenly blessing,
lhus he carefully closes every cranny
ot his bedchamber against its entrance,
and he prefers that his lungs should re
ceive the mixed effluvium from his cel
lar and larder, and from a patent little
modern aquarius in lieu of it. Why
should man be so terrified at the ad
mission ot night air into any of his apart
ments l It is nature’s overflowing cur
rent, and never carries the destroying
angel with it. See how soundly the
delicate little wren and tender robin
sleep under its full and immediate in
fluence, and how fresh, and vigorous,
and joyous they rise amid the sur
rounding dew-drops of the morning.—
Although exposed all night to the air
of heaven, their lungs are never out of
order, and this we know by the daily
repetition oi their song. Look at the
newly-born hare, without any nest to
go to. ft lives and thrives, and be
comes strong and playful under the un
mitigated inclemency of the falling
dews of night. I have here a fine male
turkey, full eight years old, and he has
not passed a single night in shelter.—
He roosts in a cherry tree, and always
is in the priruest health throughout the
year. Ihree dunghill fowls, preferring
the cherry-tree to the warm perches in
the hen-house, took up their airy quar
ters with him early in October, and
have never gone to any other roosting
place. Ihe cow and the horse sleep
safely on the cold damp ground, and
the roebuck lies down to rest in the
heather, on the dewy mountain top. I
myself can sleep all night long, bare
headed, under the full moon’s watery
beams, without any fear of danger, and
pass the day in wet shoes without
catching cold. Coughs and colds are
generally caught in the transition from
an overheated room to a cold apart
ment; but there would be no danger
in this movement if ventilation were
properly attended to—a precaution lit
tle thought of now-a-days.— Water torC s

Oak Necessary to Build One Ship.
Lfy the report of the Commissioners of
Land Revenue, it appears that a sev
enty-four gun ship contains about 2.000
tons, which, at the rate of a load and
a half a ton, would give .‘{,ooo loads of
timber, and would require 2.000 trees
of seventy-five years growth. It has
also been calculated that, as not more
than forty oaks, containing a load and a
hall ot timber in each, can stand upon
one acre, fifty acres are required to pro
duce tne oaks necessary for every sev

Extraordinary Discovery. —Prof.
Von Grusselbach, of Stockholm, has
very lately brought to a state of per
fection the art of producing a torpor in
the whole system, by the application
of cold of different degrees of intensity,
proceeding from a lesser to a greater,
so as to cause the human body to be
come perfectly torpid without perma
nent injury to any organ or tissue of
the frame. In this state they ma\ re
main one hundred ora thousand years,
and again, after a sleep of ages, be
awakened to existence, as fresh and
blooming as they were when first sunk
into this frightful slumber.
Simple Cure for Croup. —ls a child
is taken with croup, instantly apply
cold water, ice if possible, suddenly
and freely to the neck and chest, with
a sponge. The breathing will almost
instantly be relieved. So soon as pos
sible, let the sufferer drink as much as
it can; then wipe it dry, cover it up
warm, and soon a quiet slumber will
relieve the parent’s anxiety. —Journal

TOO EXPENSIVE.
In a neighbouring town, a few days
ago, a bacchanalian from the country,
expressing a determination to become
a teetotaller, consulted a wag as to the
mode of procedure, when he was jocu
larly recommended to go to the office
of (we wont't say the Whittle Dean)
Water Company. When the rustic
called, the clerks were seated at their
desks, but the manager was absent.—
Being anxious for information, he ask
ed if many were joining now ? He
was answered, “ Oh. yes.” He farther
inquired, “Do you not tak’ a drap
yourselves occasionally V “ What do
you mean, sir f “ Now,” rejoined the
would-be water votary, 44 tell me hon

answer. ”1 was just thinkin* asrnuckle,”
quoth he. One clerk asked another,

lie expressed his wish to join his socie

the would-be water-bibber in amaze

RAISING THE WIND—AND THE
DUST.
44 We're out offunds,” sighed Digges.
There was no denying this.
But at this moment, a very respec
tably clad personage, who was going
down Broadway at New York speed,
tipped his hat, and said, 44 Good morn
ing, Mr. Digges.” When he said this,
he was gone, but his words made a
great impression on the mind of Bob.
44 Who’s that ?” he asked.
“ Don t know his name; he belongs
to my lodge ; a very clever fellow.”
44 our lodge ?” he echoed— 44 You
are on Odd Fellow, then V
44 Yes.”
44 And a Son of Tempera nce ?”
44 Yes.”
“And a Rechabite?”
44 Yes.”
44 And a United American mechanic?”
44 Yes.”
Bob’s face grew radiant.
“Are your dues paid up?”
44 Yes ; why do you ask ?” exclaimed
Digges, astonished at the sudden de
light of his friend.
“ How much do these societies give
to a sick brother?”
41 Some three and some four dollars
a week.”
“What proof do they require of his
sickness ?”
“ The certificate ofa respectable phy
sician,” answered Digges.
A pause ensued. Bob seemed run
ning over with a superabundance of
delight.
“ And with these facts before you,
my misguided Digges, you have per
ished in the enjoyment of good health?”
“ Never was sick a week in my life,
only”—he paused; “only in the pock
et.’’
Without another word, Bob took the
arm of Digges w ithin his own, and led
him into a neighboring oyster-cellar.
Seated within the box, he closed the
curtains, and said, in a tone of deep
feeling:
“ Digges, you really ought to take
care of yourself! You now exhibit all
the premonitory symptoms of a billions
attack.”
“ Eh!” cried Digges, jumping from
his seat.
“ Your skin is sallow, your tongue
furred, aud your eye feverish. In an
hour, my friend, you will be in bed,
with a raging fever. By night you will
be delirious. To-morrow vou will not
%)
be expected to live, and next week"—
“Next week?” echoed Digges, be
coming pale.
“Next week,” resumed Bob, “you
will—are you listening l you will draw
at least twelve dollars from these so
cieties. I will sign your certificate.—
And as you will be sick a great many
w'eeks, you will continue to draw twelve
dollars per week for a considerable time.
; Digges, I pity you.”
At these words the countenance of
i Digges became overspread with a mild
j resignation. He extended his hands,
lie clutched Bob with a hearty grasp.
“ It s a great deal of sickness to look
forward to, but lam resigned. You see
I am. By-the-by, Bob, 1 don't feel well.
“Spose you go homo with me, and put
me to bed ?”
For twelve weeks Bob watched night
and day by the bedside. Every one
remarked his devotion. The commit
tees of the various societies, who came
with the “ weekly benefits’ for the sick
brother, were delighted with Bob.—
They spoke of the devotion of the
young physician to their sick brother,
in all their lodges and divisions.
“Sit down, my friends,” Bob would
remark, in a subdued voice, when a com

mittee appeared, “ our poor friend fails
fast. He has been delirious all night.
Speak low—the least noise disturbs
him.”
And then the committee would sit
down in that darkened room, in the
fourth story of a boarding-house, and
gaze through the gloom upon the form
of poor Digges. who was stretched upon
a bed, his cadaverous face appearing
above the edge of the coverlet.
After a few moments they would
leave, first placing in the hand of Bob
the sum due his sick friend.
And after the committee had left,
and gone down stairs, Bob would give
orders that his patient should not be
disturbed. He would then approach
the bed, address his patient in these
words —“ Digges, my boy, will you
take your toddy hot or cold ?”
To which the patient. Hinging off the
bedclothes, and jumping out of bed,
would respond —i ll take it hot, Bob. —

THE QUARTER’S REVENUE.
The returns of the Revenue are now
before us ; and to those who are fond
of a puzzle, composed of the mystifica
tion of an array of figures and facts, we
can promise an hour's treat, in a con
templation of the official document. —
The best of it is, that it is a puzzle
which never ends, for the Returns may
be returned to again and again w ithout
any solution of the mystery. We are
happy to be told that the result is sat
isfactory, though the balance is on the
wrong side ; but we cannot very well
understand what there is satisfactory
in a reduction of income; and, when
we come to details, tin* following is the
result of all we can gather:—
The Customs have decreased from a
scarcity, we suppose, of customers, and
there has been a tailing off in sugar. —
the sweet tooth of John Bull having
failed to exert its usual influence.—
Grain and flour have also produced
less, —so that the contents of the sack
have sympathized with the saccharine.
In the Excise there has been addition
al consumption,—so that the depres
sion complained of has not materially
affected the spirits, and poverty has had
its gin, if it has also had its bitters.—
The Assessed Taxes seem to have been
paid more promptly than usual, and
the gatherer has no doubt had his pa
tience less tried, and been able to keep
himself and his rates more thoroughly
collected.
The Income-Tax seems to be in an
undulating state, for one year it goes
44 up, up, up,” and another year it goes
44 down, down, down,” but forthe Quar
ter just ended, we have returns that
look like increased profits. There is
a decrease of £BOOO in the Post-Office,
which, if we may be allowed to adopt
the usual mysterious style of analysing
official statements, would show adi muni
tion in letters amounting, when divi
ded by 20, to a falling off of 30? and
a fraction, on every letter of the alpha
bet.
Though the revenue has decreasd on
the quarter, it has increased on the
year, and so long as on a series of di
minishing quarters we get an augment
ed total, we suppose we have nothing
to complain of. The revenue seems to
have a good deal of the frothy buoy
ancy of a pot of beer, which, though
decidedly deficient in quantity, may be
made, by a proper adjustment of a
“head,” to wear the aspect of refresh
ing redundancy.
We have a word or two to say about
the Income-Tax, which has taken a sud
den start that may —or may not—
be thus accounted for. Taking the
whole in round numbers—and we
will, for the sake of uniformity, use
round numbers only—at 000,000,000,
it is fair to conclude that every circle —
of the nine we have embraced—is re
covering from the crisis.
Pro Omnibus Bibo. —The Ameri
can Ambassador, on returning thanks
for his health at the Mansion House,
said on Faster Monday, that,
“ When the loving cup went round,
he drank for 22,000.000 of his country
men.”
The reports say, “Drunk with all
the honours and really, after such a
draught as that, we do not w onder at it.
But suppose every Ambassador
drank to the same extent, the Lord
Mayor would have to provide drink
for all the world ! A Mansion House
dinner would be quite “an Exhibi
tion of the Drinking Industry of all
Nations.”
My Sole’s in Arms.—A Letter from
Sweden says that there is an order for
the navy to be immediately put “ on a
war footing.” We suppose that the
sailors will all have to wear Bluchers
or Wellingtons, which is our idea—
lather a literal one perhaps—of a war
footing.

The Coming Animal. —A Hippo
potamus is waiting at Alexandria, to
be shipped over to England. This will
be the first visit ever paid tothiscoun
by this noble and rare creature. —
Ap arlmcnts have already been engaged
tor him at the Zoological G aide ns,
where an artist will wait upon him at
the very earliest opportunity, with the
view of taking his portrait.
A ship has been put at the disposal
of the I iippopotamus ; and the captain
has received orders to pay him every
possible attention, and to spare no ex
pense in “going the entire animal.”
The Rhinoceros lately has been very
noisy, and has not slept for weeks. r J he
keepers say there is more in this than
meets the eye ; but for ourselves, we
attribute it to a mean spirit of jealousy.
The Rhinoceros is evidently afraid that
the Hippopotamus will put his nose
out of joint.
What’s in a Name. —Among the
visitors of rank, fashion, and distinc
tion who “ assisted” at the re-entree of
Sontag, at Her Majesty's Theatre last
week, we find the name of Baron de
Schertz. We must say that in the
brilliant assemblage we observed no
one that appeared to us as if he were
really Baron or Barren of Schertz or
Shirts, but perhaps, if there really was
a case of the kind, the individual wore
the collar of some order to hide the de
ficiency.

Our Wives and our Little Ones.
The Times, in an article deploring the
want of gratuitous amusements for the
people, intimates that there is at least
one squalling baby, on an average, in
every apartment of the National Gal
lery. Our contemporary is unwilling
to insist on the exclusion of babies, lest
the effect should be to prevent the ad
mission of those who carry the inter
esting burdens, but it is gentlv stated
that iheir squalls do not contribute
much to a pleasant contemplation of
the great masters. It is true that the
great masters must frequently have at
tention taken from them by the little
masters and little misses in their pa
rents’ arms, but perhaps a sort of ma
chine like an umbrella-stand, might be
placed at the doors, in which babies
could be safely and snugly deposited.
Each infant, with a ticket round its
neck, might be claimed by the holder
of a corresponding ticket given at the
door, and the infants would, at all
events, be safe against the risk that at
tends umbrellas of being stolen. If the
baby-stand is not approved of by the
authorities, we should suggest the adop
tion of baby-jumpers at the doors of
our public exhibitions, and thus both
parents and offspring could bo enjoy
ing their full swing of pleasure at the
same moment.

GAME OF T\\ FNTY QVESTIONS.
It is well known that the present gen
eration of grown children is wiser than
any former generation ever was, orany
future generation ever will be; and
that no doubt is the reason why we so
rarely have recourse to such frivolous
modes of amusing ourselves. But af
ter all, let us not look down with un
mitigated contempt upon our predeces
sors. r lhe Cannings, Huskissons, and
others, were really respectable individ
uals iu their way ; and if they did play
sometimes like our own little boys and
girls, we should ascribe the fact to the
general simplicity of the world, a quar
ter of a century ago. When Mr. Rush,
the American ambassador, dined with
Mr. Planta in 1823, besides the two
gentlemen mentioned, there xvas a good
ly number present of the ctUbritts of
that remote epoch, including various
members of the government and of the
corps diplomatique. In our day, with
such a company, we should have stuck
to our wine and politics; but hear Mr.
Rush : — 44 Tt would not have been easy
to assemble a company better fitted to
make a dinner-party agreeable, or to
have brought them together at a better
moment. Parliament having justrisen,
Mr. Canning, and hi s two collegues of
the cabinet, Mr. Huskisson and Mr.
Robinson, seemed like birds let out of
a cage. There was much small-talk,
some of it very sprightly.
44 Ten o’clock arriving, with little dis
position to rise from the table, Mr. Can
ning proposed that we should play
‘Twenty Questions.’ This was new to
me and the other members of the dip
lomatique corps present, though we
had all been a good while in England.
The game consisted in endeavours to
find out your thoughts by asking twenty
questions. The questions were to be
put plainly, though in the alternative
if desired; the answers to be also plain
and direct. The object of your thoughts
not to be an abstract idea, or anything
so occult, or scientific, or technical, as
not to be supposed to enter into the
knowledge of the company, but some
thing well known to the present day or
to general history. It might be any
name of renown, ancient or modern,
man or woman ; or any work or me
morial of art well known, but not a
mere event —as a battle for instance.
These were mentioned as among the
general rules of the game, serving to
denote its character. It was agreed
that Mr. Canning, assisted by the chan
cellor of the exchequer, who sat next to
him, should put the questions; and
that I, assisted by Lord Granville, who
sat next to me, should give the an
swers. Lord Granville and myself
were consequently to have the thought
or secret in common. And it was well
understood that the discovery of it, if
made, was to be the fair result of men
tal inference from the questions and an
swers, not of signs passing, or hocus po
cus of any description. With these as
the preliminaries, and the parties sit
ting face to tace, on opposite sides of
the table, we began the battle.”
W e shall not give the details of the
game, because these were published iu
1840 ; but this is the conclusion :
“The whole number of questions being
now exhausted, there was a dead pause.
The interest had gone on increasing, as
the game advanced, until, coming to the
last question, it grew to be like neck
and-neck at the close of a race. Mr.
Canning was evidently under concern
lest he should be foiled, as, by the law
of the game, he would have been if he
had not now solved the enigma, lie
sat silent for a minute or two; then
rolling his rich eye about, and with a
countenance a little anxious, and in an
accent by no means over-confident, he
exclaimed, 4 I think it must be the wand
of the Lord-high-steward!’ And it Mas
even so.” Many of the company pres
ent said that this was the only instance
they had m itnessed of the secret having
been preserved till the tM entieth ques
tion—most games being finished in
half the time. 44 Dining at the Mar
quis of Stafford's,” Mr. Rush concludes,
‘•at a subsequent day, this pastime
was spoken of and it was mentioned
that Mr. Pitt and Mr. Wyndhatn were
both fond of it. Lord Stafford said
that the former had once succeeded in
it, when the secret was the stone upon
which Walworth, lord mayor of Lon
don, stood M’hen he struck down Wat
Tyler in Richard ll.’s time ; and his
impresssion was, that Mr. Pitt had
triumphed at an early stage of his ques
tions.”
A correspondence from Limerick
gives us more in detail the present
rules of the game, which, according to
this authority, are shortly these :
Two persons (usually a lady and
gentleman) are chosen by the compa
ny, who fix in private upon an article or
subject. Two others are then chosen
to endeavour to find out what the
thought is ; and this is done by asking
twenty questions as to its nature and
qualities. A fifth person is usually se
lected as umpire, who is made acquaint
ed with the subject fixed on, and whose
duty it isto see that all the answers shall
be fair. These answers are not to be
such as will be calculated to mislead ;
although of course it will be observed
that the wider they are from the mark,
the more difficult will the guessing be
rendered.
The following game was played at
our correspondent's house on a recent
occasion, (during the queen’s visit to
Ireland,) and it will afford a tail- illus
tration of the nature and manner of the
game:—
Question. Does it belong to the
animal, vegetable, or mineral kingdom ?
Answer. To all three.
Q. Is it a manufactured article ?
A. Always.
Q. Is it in the room ?
A. No.
Q. Is it in this city ?
A. No.
Q. Is it useful, or morel v ornamen
tal ?
A. Useful.
[Here the idea struck the question
ers that it was a vehicle of some sort;
they therefore asked]
(/. Is it ever used as a conveyance?
A. It is.
[We then thought it might be a ship,
or perhaps a balloon : so we inquired]
Q. Is it used as a conveyance by
air. earth, or water ?
A. On the earth.
[The locomotive now suggested it
self. and we asked ]
(J. What was the motive power?
A. Various.
[This did not lead us very far to
wards a guess; but we determined to
comic closer: so we queried]
Q. Is fire ever used in connection
with its motions ?
A. On some occasions it is.
[ We now became certain that it was
connected with a railway, and the ques
tion which followed was]
Q. Has it a chimney ?
A. No.
Q. Have any of us seen it \
A. Do not know whether vou hav e
or not.
[We then began to suspect that it
wa> in some way connected with the
prevailing topic —the queen’s visit; and
so we asked]
Q. Is it in Ireland ?
A. It is.
[ We then thought it might be well
to ask j
Q. Is it used for a special purpose?
A. Yes.
[W e immediately concluded that it
was the state railway carriage : but to
make certain we inquired]
Q. Has it any glass in it ?
A. Yes.
And at the fifteenth question—name
ly, “ Has it soft seats ?” to which the
answer was, “It has —-we guessed that
it was the “ Royal State-Carriage of
the Great Southern and Western Hail
way,” which had been brought to Ire
land on purpose for the accommodation
of the queen.
In concluding this memorandum, we
may return, for an instant, to Mr. Plan
ta's dinner, to remark that the game
occupied upwards of an hour, during
which not one drop of wine was drank!

ALARGEstoek of these well known PENS constantly

CAUTlON.—Certain PRETENDED MANUFAC
TURERS of Steel Pens, having adopted Joseph Gil
lott’s style ok Label, his mode of putting np his
Pens, and also Designating Numbers, he desires to
give the following
NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC.
That all genuine packages or boxes of Joseph Gil
lott’s Pens have a sac simile of his signature on the
reverse side. None other are genuine. This caution espe
cially refers to his original No. 303, the great ponularity of
which has caused it to be imitated, and the number adopt
ed by a host of prstendeb makers.
Joseph Gii.lott would further advise the public that,
in all cases win re his Numbers anil the phraseology of his
Labels are adopted by the parties abov e alluded to, the
Pens are not made bv him, although asserted to b°.
An experience of thirty years has enabled Mr. Gillott to
bring his Steel Pens to the highest state of perfec -
tion, and the liberal patronage which he has long enjoyed
at the hands of theAnierican public,will incite him to con
tinued exertion to maintain the fa lor which he has ac
quired. HENRY OWEN, Agent.
