Wonderful to him who has eyes to see it right
ly is the newspaper. To me, for example, sittitii:
on tlic critical front bench of the } it, in my study
hero iti Salem, the advent of my wiekly journal is
that of astroliing theatre,orratherof a puppet .show.
on whose stage, narrow as it is, the tra^cuv.
comedy, and farce ot life are played in littli-, l>»-
hold tlie whole huge earth sent to me lielidtiinai’.
ally in a brown paper wrajiper!
Hither to my obscure corner, by ind, or sti iim,
on horseback, on droiiiedary-back, in tin- ]iouch «>i

wires, troop ail the famoii.s perlormers Iroiu the
four quarters of the ulobc. Lookeil tit ln>m a

the editor sets his booth upon my desk atid nili-
ciates ;ui showman. Now 1 can u uly see bow
little and transitory is life. T’ho earth api'Oia's
almost as a drop of vinejiar, on wbicb the solar
microscope of the imaijination must be brought to
bear in order to make out any thing distinctly.
The animalcule there, in the pea-jacket, is
Louis I'hilippe, just landed on the coast of Kng-
land. That other, in the grey surtout and cocked
hat, is Napoleon Bonaparte Smith, assuring 1' raiice
that she need apprehend no intei feiencc trom him
in the present alarming juncture. At tb:it sput,
where you seem to sec a speck ot .something in
motion, is an immense nniss meeting. Luok
sharper, and you will see a man brandishing his
mandibles in an excited manner. This is the
great Soandso, defending bis position amid tu
multuous and irrepressible cheers. That infinites
simal creature, upon whom some score of others,
as minute as he, are gazing in ojii-ii-moutlud :id-
miration, is a famous philosopher, expounding to
a select audience their cajiacity for the iniiinto
That scarce diRcernible pufHet of smoke and dust
is a revolution. That speck there is a rci’ riiu r
just arranging a lever with which he is tn nmvr
the worlti. Aud lol there creejis forw;iid the
shadow of a skeleton that blows one breath be
tween its grinning teeth, and all our distinguished
actors are wlii.sked off the slijipery stage intn the
dark beyond.
Yes, (he little show-box has its solemn sug-
restions. Now and then we catch a gllmjise oi a
:rim old man, who lays down a scythe and Imnr-
glass in the corner while he shift.s the scenrs.
There, too, in the dim back-grouud, a Wo rd
ibape is ever delving. Sometimes he lean- ujmii
his mattock, and gazes, as a coach whirls by.
bearing the newly married on their wedding j:iunt.
or glances carelessly at a babe bruugbi lintiK-
frotn christening. Suddenly (for the seenc ^rows
larger and larger as we look) a bony hand snatch
es back a performer in the midst of his ]iarf,
and him w'hom yesterday two intinites fpa-t ami
future) would not suffice a handful of dust i' «
nough to cover and silence forever. Nay, \vc si •
the same fleshle.ss lingers opening to clutch th'
.showman him.self, and guess, nut witlmut a
shudder, that they are lying in wait for spcet i
tors also.
Think of it! for two dollars a year 1 buy a
