<®rms from tjje tymis. THE BLACKSMITH’S SHOP. BY R. H. STODDARD. Bewdo the road in Harley town There stands an ancient Blacksmith’s Shop, Whose walls and roofs are dark and low, With chimney’s peeping o’er the top ; Some two or three on either side, But only one with fire supplied, Which puffs its srnoky volumes high, In dusky wreaths along the sky. Harrows, and wains with splintered shafts, And broken wheels, are standing round ; And molten coals and cinders lie In scattered heaps along the ground ; And in the yard, beside the door, Youßce the square old tireing-floor, With grass, and weeds, and waving sedge Bent down around with blackened edge. Fronting the door, the anvil stands, With burnished surface broad and clear; The rusty pincers dropped in haste, And heavy sledge are lying near; While hammers, tongs, and chisels cold, And crooked nails, and horse-shoes old, With all the tools renowed of yore In blacksmith ditties, strew the floor. Beneath the window stands a row Os rusty benches rough and rude ; And bars aud files are thrown thereon. And vices on the edge are screwed ; And see ! —the last year’s almanac, With songs and ballads torn and black. And battle prints by sea and land, That line the walls on every hand. The forge in a little nook, Before chimney slant and wide ; And, in a leather apron clad, You see the helper by its side : Nodding his head and paper crown. He moves me bundle up and down, Beneath his arm, with motion slow, And makes the rattling bellows blow. Hard by, the blacksmith folds his amis, And swells their knotted sinews strong ; Or turns his iron in the fire, And rakes the coals aud hums a song : And when the heat throws out its light, He hurries to the anvil bright, And sledges fail with deafening sound, And sparks are flying thick around. The village idlers lounge about, And talk the country gossip o*er; And no v and then a farmer’s man Drive.- up on horseback to the door: And reapers come from pastures near, And Ned the ploughman with his steer, Aud passing teamsters broken down. O’erloaded lor the neighbouring town. From morning’s break to evening’s close, In early spring and autumn time, The dusty blacksmith plies his craft. And makes his heavy anvil chime ; And oft he works at dead of night, Like some deep thinker, strong and bright. That shapes his stern, laborious lore Iu iron thoughts forevermore! YOUTH. Pleasant and fair as the morning air Over flower-dressed meadows flowing, Is the bio- .nos youth, when with love of truth, The young heart is glowing. Passing away with each fleeting day, Is the space of time assigned U 9, But the lilt* we live will its impress give To those we leave behind us. Shall we not seek, that when from the cheek. The glow of life has departed, Our names may stand, as a glorious band Os the faithful and true-hearted ? Then we’ll not lose, but wisely use The moments to us given. That the hours we employ may afford us joy, When the cords of life are riven. €l)t limMist. LITER ARY A NECDOTES. £From Arvine’s Cyclopaedia of Anecdote* of Literature and the Arts, pnbli-hed in number*, by Gould & Lincoln, Boston, and tor sale by the Charleston Book sellers.] Franklin as a Bookseller.— The following story, told of Franklin’s mode of treating the animal called in those days “lounger,” is worth putting into practice occasionally, even in this age and generation : One morning, when Franklin was busy preparing his newspaper for the press, a lounger stepped into the store, and spent an hour or more looking over the books, and finally, taking one in his hand, asked the shop boy the price. “One dollar,” was the answer. “ One dollar,” said the lounger; can’t you take less than that ?” “No, indeed; one dollar is the price.” Another hour had nearly passed, when the lounger asked, — ‘ Is Mr. Franklin at home?” “Yes, he is in the printing office.” “I want to see him,” said the loun ger. The. shop boy immediately informed Mr. Franklin that a gentleman was in the store waiting to sec him. Frank lin was soon behind the counter, when the lounger, with book in hand, ad dressed him thus : “Mr. Franklin, what is the lowest you can take for this book ?” “One dollar and a quarter,” was the ready answer. “One dollar and a quarter! Why, your young man asked only a dollar.” “True,” said Franklin, “and 1 could have better alTorded to have taken a dollar then than to have been taken out of the office.” The lounger seemed surprised, and wishing to end the parley of his own making, said, — “Come, Mr. Franklin, tell me what is the lowest yon can take for it.” “One dollar and a half.” “A dollar and a half! Why, you offered it yourself for a dollar and a quarter.” “Yes,” said Franklin, “and I had better have taken that price then than a dollar and a half now.” The lounger paid down the price, and went about his business, —if he had any,—and Franklin returned into the printing office. The Greatest Bore in London. — When Sir William Curtis returned from his voyage to Italy and Spain, he called to pay his respects to Mr. Can ning, at Gloucester Lodge. Among other questions, Sir William said, “But, pray, Mr. Canning, what do you say to the tunnel under the Thames ?” “Say,” replied the secretary, “why, 1 say it w ill be the greatest bore Lon don ever had, and that is saying a great deal.” A Ludicrous Mistake. —A Cincin nati grocer's house, finding out that cranberries commanded six dollars per bushel, and, under the impression that cranberries commanded six dollars per bushel, and, under the impression that the article could be bought to advan tage at St. Mary’s, wrote out to a cus tomer, acquainting him with the fact, and requesting him to send “one hun dred bushels per Simmons,” (the wa goner usually sent.) The correspon dent, a plain, uneducated man, had considerable difficulty in deciphering the fashionable scrawl common with merchants’ clerks of late years, and the most important word, “cranber ries,” he failed to make out, but be plainly and clearly read, one hundred bushels persimmons. As the article was growing all around him, all the boys in the neighbourhood were set to gathering it, and the wagoner made his appearance in due time in Cincin nati, with eighty bushels, all that the wagon bed would hold, and a line from the country merchant that the remain der would follow the next trip. An explanation soon ensued, but the cus tomer insisted that the Cincinnati house should have written by Sim mons, and not per Simmons. The Elephant. —A gentleman, wri ting to his country friend in Lincoln shire, (England,) who had done him some recent favour, informed him by letter how much he was obliged, and that he should soon send him an equiv alent. Not being accustomed to fash icnable scrawls, he read it that his friend would send him an elephant; and, building a barn at the same time, actually fitted up a stall for the recep tion of his unexpected present. The arrival, however, of a barrel of oysters, by the stage, a few days afterwaids, helped him to the right reading, by putting him in of a equitable equivalent than an elephant. From this story, perhaps, the saws about “seeing the elephant,” were de rived. Stuttering Letter. —A certain old woman took from the post office in the town of G. a letter. Not knowing how to read, and being anxious to know the contents, supposing it to be from one of her absent sons, she called on a person near to read the letter to her. He accordingly began, and read, — “Charleston, June 23, 1851. “Dear Mother —Then, making a stop to find out what followed, as the writing was rather bad, the old lady exclaimed, “O, ’tis from poor Jerry ; he always stuttered Johnson and the Butcher.— An eminent carcass butcher, as meagre in his person as he was in his under standing, being one day in a booksel or’s shop, took up a volume of Church ill’s poems, and by way of showing his taste, repeated the following line: — “Who rules o’er freemen should himself be free.” Then Turning to Dr. Johnson, — “\\ hat think you of that sir ?” said he. “Rank nonesense, replied the other. “It is an assertion without a proof; and you might, with as much proprie ty, say,— “Who slays fat oxen should himself be fat.’’ Criticised Poet. —An indifferent poet, who had been severely handled by the critics, yet continued to go on publishing his crudities, said one day to an acquaintance, that he had found out a way to be revenged of his re viewers, and that was by laughing at them. “Do you so?” said the other ; “then let me tell you, you lead the merriest life of any man in Christen dom.” The Author and the kkv**\v. —An author, whose works had been severely criticised in one of the reviews, assured a friend that he wished, of all things, to write down the review. “Then write in it,” said his friend. 1 (Pnlilrt nf -pimrij. Funny Market and Witty Intelli gence.—Notw ithst&uding the improve ment in the funds of humour, which we Jiave recently noticed, they made a further advance in consequence of a large transaction in stock jokes, sup posed to have been made, in anticipa tion of the Christmas pantomimes. The burlesque writers have not yet begun to operate ; but when they do commence, the better sort of puns will go rapidly up; but it is expected they will go down—with the audiences—at about Christmas time. A gloomy feeling was caused by the rumour of the failure of one of the old est jokers in the city. The fact is, that the trade has been for some time thor oughly inundated with his jokes, and he has long been dealing in accommo dation jokes, got up between himself and another, whose name we will not at present mention. Their dealings were almost entirely in chaff, and the Millers—Joe—and company, into whose books they had gone very deep ly—will be the chief sufferers. There was an arrival to-day of co nundrums and other dry goods, speci mens of which were handed about ra ther freely. Several parcels were con signed to the Punch office, but few are above the average. The following are the best quotations : “If figs are sold at sixpence a pound by the ‘drum,’ how should they be sold by the trumpet?” “If £8 per ton is the price of lead in sheets, what would it be worth in quires?” The market was well supplied with small yarn, some of which was about equal to the following : “An individual says that the follow ing translation struck him (it would have served him right had it knocked him down) during a three-hours’ jour ney from Kensington to the city : Nemo omnibus horis sapit. No one knows the time of an omnibus.” There has been a perfect glut of the lower quality of stuffs, which are of fered at any price, but the dealers would have nothing to do with them. The following will suffice to show the kind of article that some unprincipled persons, trading on such capital as may be found in the alphabet, are desirous of foisting on the community. “How,” asks one of these unprincipled adven turers, in a recent circular, “How can you express in four units that food is necessary for man ?—l, 0,2, 8. One— ought —to—eat,” is the reply he ha zards. We are not sure that an indict ment for trying to get funny under false pretences would not lie against the person thus committing himself; or, at all events, for passing a counter feit joke, as the following goes to show a second case of uttering. “Why is a conspiracy like a chicken walking ? Because it’s a fowl proceed ing!” There can be no doubt that the per son capable of hatching a thing of this SOUTHERN LITERARY GAZETTE. sort deserves to be completely beaten up with eggs in the nearest pillory. There had been no packet from the Isle of Dogs when we went to press ; and a funny dog we had expected from that quarter, has, accordingly, not ar rived. The following has just been growled out to us by a funny dog of our own, who, with his MS., has been commit ted at once to the kennel. “Why is a bald man like an inva lid ? Because he wants fresh (h)air.” After this it will be dangerous to keep the reader any longer in the op pressive atmosphere of the Funny Market, and we accordingly release him from his painful position. Bloomkrism —A Latter-Day Frag ment. By Thomas Snarlyle. —A mad world this, my friends, a world in its lunes, petty aud other; in Junes other than petty now for some time; in pet ty-lunes, pettiletts, orpantaletts, about these six weeks, ever since when this rampant androgynous Bloomerism first came over from Y'ankee land. A sort of shemale dress you call Bloomerism; a fashion of Sister Jonathan’s. Trous ers tight at ankles, and for most part frilled; tunic descending with some degree of brevity, perhaps to knees, ascending to throat and open at chemi spttp.fpnnf’, or Fnttrinad th° ro • pdlU*’ down-turned over neckerchief; aud, crowning all, broad-brimmed hat; said garments severally feathered, trimmed, ribboned, variegated, according to the fancies and the vanities: these,chiefly, are the outward differences between Bloomer dress and customary feminine old clothes. Not much unlike nurse ry-uniform you think this description of costume, but rather considerably like it, I compute. “To me,” writes Glumm, in his own rough way, “these Bloomers seem to resemble, in great measure, overgrown school girls, kept backwards, as they say, by juvenile Mamma, at a ‘Preparatory Establish meat for Young Ladies.’ 1 sec nothing at all admirable iu them, for my part, but much not to be admired on any ac- count, and look upon them, at the best, as mere strapping hoydens and auda cious unfeminine tom-boys.” Nor will you, most likely, more than Glumm, discern aught laudable in external Bloomerism : a masquerade frippery : an excrescence of the conceits and the coquetries. Invisible are the merits of the Bloomer dress, such as it has. A praiseworthy point iu Bloomerism the emancipation of the ribs: an exceed ing good riddance, the deliverance from corset, trammelling genteel thorax with springs of steel and whale-bone, screw ing in waist to Death’s hour-glass con traction, and squeezing lungs, liver, and midriff into an unutterable cram. Commendable, too, the renouncement of sous-jupe bouflante, or ineffable wadding, invented, 1 suppose, by some Hottentot to improve female contour after the type of Venus, his father, land’s, and not Cythera’s. Wholesome, moreover, and convenient, the abbre viation of trains, serving in customary female old clothes the purpose of be som, and no other: real improvements, doubtless, these abandonments of ru inous shams, ridiculous uuveracities, and idolatries of indescribable mud- Pythons. But Bloomerist inexpressi ble afleetations, and mimicries of mas- ( culiue garments, nettier and upper, such, my friends, I take to be no more than dumb, inarticulate clamourings for the Rights of Women, George Sand phantasms, and mutinous female radicalisms grown termagant and tran scendent. The last new madness is this Bloomerism : the latest species of insanity epidemic from time to time: Puseyism having been the mania be ! fore that. Disputes about surplices in pulpit, and albs elsewhere, gives place to controversies in theatres and lec- | ture-halls concerning petty lunes and frilled trousers; paraphernalia, how ever, not less important than canoni cals, as I judge, for one. Better, 1 say, Mrs. Bloomer in her petty lunes, than the Rev. Aloysius Quiddlepope in dal- j matic and chasuble. But here are we, | my friends, in this mad world, amid the hallooings and bawlings, and guf faws and imbecile simperings and tit terings, blinded by the November smoke-fog of coxcombries and vanities, stunned by the perpetual hallelujahs of flunkeys, beset by maniacs and sim pletons in the great lunes and the pet ty lunes; here, 1 say, do we, with Bloomerism beneath us bubbling up permost, stand, hopelessly upturning our eyes for the daylight of heaven, upon the brink of a vexed unfathoma ble gulf-of apehood and asshood sim mering forever! An Express Train for Ladies.— The charms of English ladies were formerly so irresistible, that they en joyed what is called an “European re putation” for sweeping every tiling be fore them; but, at the present, the only European reputation which English ladies enjoy, is—thanks to their long dresses—of sweeping every thing be hind them. The Lakes of Killarnev. —The Daily News tells us that the Earl of Keumare is taking measures, that if permitted, will make him the Keeper of “The Lakes af Killarney, to which the public cannot approach without the permission of a landlord, which of course may at any time be withheld.” It is a great comfort that a Scotch Duke cannot hide the sun in his bon net, or an Irish Earl wrap the firma ment in his cloak. Otherwise the world would be as comfortless aud as dark as—as their own selfish souls. Unpublished Anecdote of Mrs. Bloomer. —Mrs. Bloomer declares that she will never be able to summon courage to visit England ; for it would be most painful to her feelings to cross the Atlautic, and see so many vessels —even though they should not be of the weaker sort —going about in stays ! Thn Flower of Politeness. —There is now growing, at a nursery-ground in Chelsea, a Victoria Regia, so gigantic as nearly to fill up the garden. A per son of ceremonious habits, in passing the flower, put it gently aside, exclaim ing at the same time, “Now then, by your leaf.” Another and Another Still. —The novel cable just prepared for the Elec tric Telegraph may justly be called the greatest curiosity in—new—rope— (in Europe.)
