jjfoetejfc THE DYING CmD. 11l not be with you long, mother, ■ I soon must say good-by; ■ But, mother, we shall meet again In God’s bright home on high. ■ And mother, don’t you know you said Sweet sister’s living there, ■ And that she is an angel now— So beautiful and fair. She’ll know me when I come, mother, She’ll take me by the band— We will always be together there, In yonder distant land ; And, mother, I shall wear bright wings— I’ll be an angel too, And then before God's golden throne I’ll kneel and pray for you. I like to feel your hand, mother, So soft upon my brow; I always loved its gentle touch, *Tis dearer to me now. Oh! mother 1 do not weep for me! I’m not afraid to die: Your lip is trembling, and I see The tears are in your eye. Lean closer down your ear, mother, My voice is growing weak— You are weeping yet, I felt a tear Just fall upon my cheek. My eyes grow dim and now I hear Sweet music from the sky; It is for me, 1 am going now — Mother, dear mother, good-by. ■ —— = ‘ I on being asked if he had ever ■ ten the “bridge of sighs,” replied, “\es, I live been travelling on it ever since I was I arried.” I exchange paper tells a story of a lan who was found on a Sunday morning I ithout a hat, sitting on a block of granite I ith his bare feet in a brook, trying to catch I bad cold, so as to sing bass at church. I OC7*An imaginative Irishman gave utter ance to this lamentation: “I returned to the ■ alls of my father’s by night, and 1 found Itiem in ruins ! 1 cried aloud, * My fathers, Inhere are they ?” and echo responded, • Is Ihat you, Patrick M’Glathery DCf*A young iady, walking out one fine Inorning, met the celebrated John Wilkes. iShe remarked to him, “ You see, sir, I have Lome out for a little sun and air.” “You had better, madam, get a husband first,” was |‘he reply. DCr’A colored servant sweeping out a Ho tel boarding room, found a sixpence, which he carried to his owner. “You may keep it for your honesty,” said he. Shortly af ter, he lost his gold pencil-case, and inquired of the servant if he had seen it. “Yes, sar,” said the darkey. “And what did you do with it?” “1 keep um for my honesty,” said the darkey, with entire simplicity. A Melancholy Truth. —A magazine re port of the ‘‘fashions” says : “There is not much change in gentlemen’s pantaloons this month.” Adversity. —“Ah, Sam, so you’ve been in I trouble, eh V* ■ “Yes, Jim, yes.” I “Well, well, cheer up, man; adversity tries us, and shows our better qualities.” i “Ah, but adversity didn’t try me ;it was a County Judge, and he showed up my worst qualities.” Felo de Se. —Stephen Hall, a queer geni us, had made frequent gracious promises to his friends that he would put himself out of the way.. One stinging cold night he vow ed he would go out and freeze to death. About eleven o’clock he returned, shiver , ing and slapping his fingers. “Why don’t you freeze ?” asked a loving relative. “Golly !” said the pseudo-suicide, “when Is I freeze, I mean to take a warmer night than I this for it !” F Model Bar Appeal. —“ Judge time I I know is precious, as must be the case with I so valtled a member of society. This case I is perfectly clear, and I know your learning | and lucid intelligence. For me to argue i would be not only a waste of time, but an I insult to your penetration. Much might be said, but nothing is needed. Before any other Judge I would lay down the rules of the law, but here I know they have been deeply studied, and wisely understood I look around me and behold an humble house of logs, yet see before me the spirit of truth, the unpurchased distributor of law, and the old tenement rises before my mental vision, proud and beautiful as a majestic temple to justice. Judge, I have a bottle of prime Monongahela in my pocket; for the respect I bear your character, allow me to make you a present of it.” “Verdict for the defendant,” said the * Judge immediately. “i love to Steal.” —An amusing incident occurred in one of our down east churches a few years ago. The clergyman gave out the hymn, “I love to steal a while away From every cumbering care, And spend the hour of setting day In humble, grateful prayer.” The regular chorister being absent, the duty devolved upon the good old deacon M., who commenced, “I love to steal,” and then broke down. Raising his voice a still higher pitch, he sung, “I love to steal ;”and as before, concluded he had got the wrong pitch, and deploring that he had not his “pitch tuner,” he determined to succeed if he died in the attempt. By this time all the old ladies were titter ing behind their fans, while the faces of the “young ones” were all in broatj grin. At length, after a desperate cough, he made a finhl demonstration, and roared out. “J love to steal.” This effort was too much. Ev eryone but the good and eccentric parson was laughing. He arose and with the ut most coolness, said : “Seeing our brother’s propensities, let us pray.’ It is needless to say that but few of the congregation heard the prayer. Pathetic. —The Rev. Mr. Smitkins, who by the way, has a holy horror of grammar and orthography, thus describes the ‘depar ture’ of a ‘saint:* When J arrove at the house of my diseased friend he \yas perspiring Iris last I stood by hie bedside and said, as he was too far gone to talk, Brother, if you teel ■happy now jist squeeze my hand, and he I Administrator’s Sale* [postponed.] Win, be sold, before the Court House door in the town of Grecnesboro, cn the first Tues day in February next, within the legal hours of sale, the following named Negroes, to-wit: one negro wo man named Dasia, and her child, named Ann—sold as the property of Robert F.

GREiT REDACTION IN THE PRICE OF THE UTTER PUBLICATIONS. L SCOTT & CO., New York, continue to • publish the following leading British Period icals, viz: 1. THE LONDON QUARTRV.LT, (Conservative.! 2. THE EDINBURGH REVIEW, (Whig) {!. THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW, (Free Church.) i. THE WE-T.MINSTER REVIEW, (Liberal.) 5. BLACKWOOD’S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE, (Tory.) The great and important events —Religious, Polit ical, and Military—now agitating the nations of the Old World, give to these Publications an interest and value they never before possessed. They occupy a middle ground between the hastily written news items, crude speculations, aud flying rumors of the newspapers, and the ponderous Tome of the histori an, written long after the living interests in the facts he records shall have passed away. The progress of the war in the East occupies a large space in their pages. Every movement is closely criticised, wheth er of friend Or foe, and all short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from the Crimea and from the Baltic, in Blackwood’s Magazine, from ttvaof its most popular contributors, give a more intelligible and reliable account . f the great beligerents than can elsewhere be found. These Periodicals ably represent the thrc-c great political parties of Great Britain—Whig, Tory and Radical —but polities forms only one feature of their character. As Organs of the most profound writers on science, literature, morality and religion, they stand, ns they have ever stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being considered indispensable to the schol-. ar and the professional man, while to the intelligent reader of every class, they furnish a more correct and satisfactoi y record of the current literature of the day, throughout the world, than can bo possibly obtained from any other source.
