Oh let me go back to my dear native home——
The home of my childhood, no longer to roam; The,homeof my kindred, the home o’er the sea, Where fond hearts are wishing and waiting for me. Again let me visit these dear native seenes— The land of my fond hopes, the land of my dreams; Where sisters and brothers are blithsome and free— Oh land of my childhood, the dearest to me! *Tis long since I left thee, thou dear native spot, But there:s love for thee yet that time cannot blot; Llong to be going—I’m yearning to see The dear one’s I left far away o’er the sea. My home in these mountains is pleasant to me, Where bright gushing fountains flow briskly and free, Where the tall pine trees rex their tops to the skies, And the beautiful hills in majesty rise. But pleasauter far are the green native hills That roamed o’erin youth midst woedlands and rills, With sisters and brothers—how happy were we In that home of childhood, my home o’ér the sea. : EULALIE. [ Original.] LOG CABIN INKLINGS. No. Hl. I pity that portion of my fellowbeings who have been so unfortunate as to be born with gold spoons in their mouths. Don’t cry “sour grapes” at me for this burst of pity. I do not live in a glass house, and that stone from the old quarry of Esop falls harmless up~ on the roof of my humble cabin, On reflection, I repeat that I pity them. Wealth has entailed upon them an ignorance worse than that. of the unlettered plebian, who substitutes for the full flowing signature of the colleges the hieroglyphical X he calls his mark. Do not laugh at that crow’s foot, ye rich ones, fresh from college. Forget not that it was the rulers of the earth who first used it, and that its primary signification was as sacred as the CROSS it imitated. True, wealth brings with it many desirable things which are seldom enjoyed by those who have nothing from the world but what they force from it —many blessings. unshared by. the wretchedly poor. As Charles Lamb pleasantly observes— “Goodly legs. and shoulders of mutton, exhilirating “cordials, BOOKS, pictures, the opportunities of seeing for“eign countries, INDEPENDENCE, heart's ease, aman’s own “time to himself, are not muck—however we may~be “pleased to scandalize with that appellation the faith“ful metal that provides them for us.” But these things to be properly enjoyed must be earned. The man who inherits them lacks the keen appreciation which poverty alone can give. Herein consists one proof of his ignorance, though not the greatest. Let me ask myself again— am I envious? Would I be the thing he is for what he owns? No—yet I do envy the born-rich. I envy him his capacity for usefulness—the bounds less means he possesses to make his neighbors happy and to surround himself by an atmosphere of human love. Tenvy him the spectacle that he might have of tearful gratitude, or, better yet, the sight of faces brilliant with a happiness of Ais creation. Unknown to myself there may be lower motives . for this envy than those I mention.— Perhaps no Diogenes amongst us but has felt, or fancied, his superiority to . 1, M: ille. * TY Malia, Onto Beaver, Peruvian and elt Hats of . the wealthy Alexander standing be‘the finest Ladies’ Hiding ifats and Children’s Hats and Caps, of ali the new styles.

Yetnone of us—none of us poor ones, I mean —are agrarians and levelers: we know too well the truth of what has been said; that if the world’s wealth were equally distributed to-day, to-morrow it would be drifced into heaps again.

He does indeed find many worshippers— as erst: his prototype in the wilder~ ness—-wratches unworthy to be poor, for which reason poverty is to them a curse, and to get rid of it they are ready to do for mammon all his dirty work.

He grows up a comparatively iso~ lated being, confined to kindred associates and factitioug joys bchind those monastic, bars of gold which exclude him as well from knowing mankind as from frequent opportunity to assist them. He is deprived of that enlarged sympathy, acquired only by equal communion with all men, which is the source of innumerable pleas~ ures as it is the ‘soother‘of innumerable woes. And the wife he takes to his bosom —takes from the false. world of the drawing-room and weds in the fashionable church whose white marblo and staired windows inspire no religion—what is she better? No sight is more painful to witness than that of such a woman, a pyramid of costly stuffs, of feathers, silks and laces, gliding down the pave with haughty steps and ever-present consciousness of self, beautiful as a peacock and as vain, as if nothing stood between earth and heaven but her! Sucha spectacle is painful because the woman seems ignorant of all that is best in herself—ignorant of that humility and tender sympathy which lie deep in every good woman’s breast, prompting to the quiet performance of good: deeds. It is painful and pitiful because it forces doubts of domestic happiness, and leaves us with the reflection that when she dies she will leave nothing valuable but her wardrobe. But the born-rich is protected by his own selfishness, perhaps, from such troubles some thoughts as these. go is ever uppermost ia his mind as in hers.— For him men were made, not he for men. If you dispute the justice of this conclusion, he is insulted; if you smile upon him he frowns; if you court his society he repulses you. Thus is he condemned to waste life, or to lose it, in ignorant selfishness, guiltless of plebian companionship; passing away, at last, from the possescion of wealth without having made a sign by which it may be known he lived. Truly, there is cause to pity him. How different the fate of he,,who emerges from some lonely hut in the wilderness, to wrestle with the angel of life till day dawns on his triumph! The struggle may be hard, but it is attended by collateral delights and peculiar advantages. His affections are not quenched but enlarge with his experience. LHvery where along the pathway of existence friends are springing to meet him— fernone are too humble for Ais acquaintance, and from all he gains much good, obtains many a rare gem of knowledge to enrich his mind withe all. . No well drilled exclusiveness makes him afraid of the world; ’tis his fami-~ ly, and he loves it. The simplest members of this family are not contemned, for contempt is a growth of conventionality. He need take no deep masonic oaths of brotherhood; the very fact of his being pledges him to fraternity. Every new ace quaintance is an acquisition of profitable pleasure; from every chat by the roadside he gains something which in after years will prove a pleasing retrospection, if nothing more. If any despise him, he can afford to smile end pity while he smiles, studying curiously, meanwhile, that anomaly in ependent man which makes him tude be his portion, or contumely, or neglect, he has sufficient company alk consolation in his own integrity inbisown pure thoughts. The joas company of all the world’s Now the born-rich does not do this, therefore he is an ignoramus. He is shut out from the creation to which he rightly belongs by the circumstances of his birth and from the very first minute of it. Fresh from his mother’s womb he lies on line, and his couch is draped with damask or with costlier silks and His first perceptions are of jhuman deference to wealth—the soul’s self-abnegation to material ac He inhales not. the free air of democratic nature—drinks not his mother’s milk even, but inspires the perfumed odors of dazzling boudoirs and draws his sustenance from hires benefactors, poor like him, but more unfortunate, except that they have lived, are with him always: he can keep company with all the ages, and enlarge this little circle of the present to the full round of eternity. For him Nature unfolds her book of beauty, from whence he may draw into his soul the refinement of loveliness— its philosophy and its poetry. Life cannot be a failure to such as he, even if he fails to accomplish his favorite desire, to enjoy a competence and to die beneath his own roof. He has not lived in vain who truly lived, faithful to his own convictions, tolerant of others, doing the duty that lay nearest him, zealous for self-improvement and the welfare of others. The influence of such a man lives after him—in his useful works, in the memory of his friends, and in the hea rts of his kindred. . Verily the wooden spoon is most desirable after all! THE HYDRAULIC PRESS Things Pleasant to Mention. The N. Y. correspondent of the Illustrated London News, says, and we believe truthfully, that not less than three hundred thousand persons in these United States preserve that paper weekly; and these, too, of the very best class of people. He finds the ews carefully filed in nearly all the public libraries and reading-rooms throughout the Union; and it occupies a conspicuous place in all our first class hotels. Even in the most remote and difficultly accessible mining villages and camps of California the same can be found, as our own experience testix fies; its pictorial pages frequently being used to cover the interior walls of the miner’s log cabin home. This extensive popularity with the Americans is no doubt due, next to its admirable illustrations, which furnish th ids" of their’ only ideas-of art, to the fact that no other English paper devotes so much space to trans-Atlantic affairs, or so correctly understands them. The Cahfornia papers say that 5,000 children visited Lee’s circus at San Francisco at one time, not long ago. What weary gold seeker of 1849, as he trod over those hot drifting sand hills of Yerba Buena, ever thought te see them so blossoming with youthful human promise? A sentimental burglar in New Orleans entered the sleeping chamber of a lovely girl to steal her jewels, but preferred a kiss, and. left an elegant written apology for the sweet theft. Thirty-five hundred children joined their little voices in choral harmony at the Chrystal Palace, England, on the occasion of a great musical festival given by the “Tonic Sol-Fa Association. THE Rosrere.—They have a beautifal custom in the villages aroun Paris, of annually presenting to the most virtuous maiden a lovely rose; offered as a prize for that purpose.— The presentation is made by the most respectable citizens of the town or village, who also invest the fair recipient of love and virtue’s emblem with a.crown of roses, sometimes also’ with a golden cross or a gift of money. The occasionis celebrated as a public gala day, and the portrait of the most virtuous frequently preser~ ved in the towm hall, Infinite are the roads to fame.— An Englishman by the name of Collet distinguished himself by paying all the game fines which came to his notice, and now has a monument erectéd to his honor, inseribed “to the memory of the poaeher’s friend.” Some railway laborers in England have presented Miss Marsh, the authoress, with an elegant Bible for her kindness to them during their labors on the Mid Kent and Chrystal Pal-’ ace railWays.< oe i 7 stu.
