POETRY.
THE T5ELLE OF THE BALL ROOM.
BT W. 31. PRAKD.
Years year ago ere yet nr; Jrcauu
Had Leon of leiiijj wise or witty ;
Ere I hail done with writing themes,
Or yawned o'er this perplexing Chitty :
Tears years ago when all my joy
Was in my fowling-piece and filly ;
In short, when I was yet a boy,
I fell in love with Laura Lilly.
She was the daughter of a dran,
Rich, fat, ami rather appoplectic,
She had one brother, just thirteen.
Whose color was extremely hectic ;
Her grandmother for many a year,
Had fed the parish with her bounty:
Her second cciuiu was a peer,
And lord lieutenant of the county.
But titles an J the-three per cents.,
And mortgages mid great relations,
And India bonds, and tithes and rente,
Oh, what arc tliey to love's sensational
Black eyes, fur forehead, clustering locks,
Such wealth, such honors, Cupid choodc ;
He cares as little for the stocks
As Huron Rothschild for the Muses.
She s'ictch'd the valo, the wood, the !each
Grew lovelier from her pencil'd shading;
Sh lolaiik-.ed I envied each
li-ung b!ossoni in her boudoir fading;
-She warbled Handel it was grand
She made the Calaliiii jealous ;
She touched the organ I could stand
F or houis and hours to blow the bellows. .
And she was flattered, worshipped, bored,
Her steps were watched, her dress was noted ;
Her poodle dog was quite adored,
Her sayings were extremely quoted.
She laughed and every heart was glad,
As if the taxes were abolished ;
bhe frowned and every heart was sad
As if the opera were demolished.
She smiled on many, just for fun
I knew that thero was nothing in it;
I was the first, the only ona
Her hcatt fcad thought of for a minute ;
I knew it, for she told me so,
In phrase whiih was dhiiidy moulded;
She wrote a charming hand, and, oh !
How sweetly all her notes were folded !
Our love was like most other loves
A little glow, a little shiver:
A rose bud and a pair of gloves,
And "fly not yet" upon the river;
Some jealousy of sonic one's heir,
Some hope's of dying broken hearted
A miniature a lock of hair
The usual vows and then we parted.
We parted months and years roll'd by
We met again four summers after ;
Our parting was all sob and sigh
Our meeting was all mirth and laughter ;
For in my heart's most secret cell,
There had been many other lodgers ;
And she was not the ball-room's belle,
But only 3 Something Jlodgers.
THE PRINTERS' LOVE.
We love to see tlte blooming rose
In all its beauty dressed ;
We love to hear our friends disclose
The emotions of ilieir breast.
We lore to see a boat arrive,
Well laden to our shore ;
We love to see our neighbors thrive
And love to bless the poor.
We love to see domestic life
Willi naught to mar its joys- "
We love to see a youthful wife
Not pleased tcith trifling toys.
We love all these yet far above
All that 'we've sung or said,
We love what all the Printers love ;
To have Subscriptions PAID !
VA1METY.
COURTSHIP FROM THE PSALMS.
A young lady in the west of England,
mated Grace Lord, by her uncommon
buauty and accomplishment,, had become
the object of attention to numerous suitors.
The young lady constantly referre d them
to her father, who being of a whimsical
temper, as well as much attached to the
society of hi? daughter, for a long time gave
no one a favorable reception. At length
a young man, who had remarked that the
father was a great humorist, after experi
encing a refusal, addressed Inn in writinc,
in the following words, from the version
of the 67th Psalm :
Have mercy on me, Lord,
And grant to me thy Grace."
The expedient succeeded, and he obtain
ed the young lai!y with the paternal con
sent. A down East gentleman while in conver
sation with a lady, was asked by her if he
was fond of novels? The reply was, "I
don't know, I never ate any; but I am
death upon a young 'Possom."
"Thou knowest that I love thee,'
cat said to the moufe.
35 the
" Come ye disconsolate." 'An olJ bach
elor at Windham , village, Vt., advertises
that he will rccieve sealed proposals from
old iri3ids for entering into the marriage
contract. None under 33 years of age
need apply, as he wants nothing to do with
giddy, flighty, young things.
- C"-"There's a chance for some of the
"young 'nns." JIiob Short, Jr.
And editor out west says he has heard
of men being in clover. He don't know
what kind of a sensation it is; but lie know s
it's a right pleasant thing to be in liquor.
lie must be a young hand at the bellows
or he'd know all about it. Our idea of
the matter is, that an editor gets in clover
wiien he has nine-tenths of his subscription--due
the Sherff at one door nn.l do.;?
at another calling for copy. Hob.
WINTER. ;
We copy from an old paper the follow
ing very appropriate article for the season :
"Some people like winter other people
don't and why don't they Readers,
we'll tell you why they don't, as briefly as
we can. In the first place, generally speak
ing, every tiling is cold, wind and water are
cold, shirts are cold before they are aired,
and sometimes afterwards; plates are sure
to be cold, gravy likewise; your oursiile is
cold, and so i& your in, especially if it is
empty. Every tiling is dark; the clouds
dark, dress is dark, the mud is remarkably
dark, and the daylight very often dark; the
nights unusually dark, and, in some towns,
so "very" dark that you cannot see the
gas light! Every thing is blue; the fog
is blue, noses are blue, in short every thing
is blue, except tiie sky, and that is a whi
ty brown- Every tiling is short, business
is short, cash is short, answers very short,
supplies are short ; in short every thing is
short, except faces, and they are generally
long. Every thing is dull ; the very docs
are dull, cats are dull, streets are duller
than dull, the city is dull, and the country
is dull ; debtors are dull, dealers and deal
ings are dull; those that do and those that
are done are dull ; in short all dull except
the newspaper, (!) and that's never dull.
Is it, reader ?
Hard Times. The eastern girls com
plain that the young men down there are
so poor that they can't even ") their ad
dresses.
The western gals say that the young
men are loo fond of paying their addresses,
and won't "stay put,'" any how they can
lix it. That is, they like courting a little
better than marrying. All in consequence
of the hard times.
" 'Tis said that absence confers love,
but 1 believe it not ;" as the loafer said
when looking into the empty rum jug.
The woes of human life are relative.
The sailor springs from his warm couch
to climb the icy topmast at midnight with
out a murmur ; while the richmerchant
complains of the rattling cart which disturbs
his evening's repose. In time of peace,
we call the breaking of a bone a "melan
choly event." Hut in war, when we read
of the slaughter of our neighbors, and thou
sands of the enemy, we clap our hands and
exclaim "glorious victory."
"There's a considerable stirring to-day,"
as the toddy stick said to the liquor.
It would be a safe speculation, to buy
tain men (and women) for what they are
worth, and sell them again for what thev
think they are worth.
"Charily seeketh not her own,' as ti c
loafer said ven he stole an umbrella.
"I hah no need of your assistance," as
the colored gentleman said to the curling
tongs.
