AUTUMN LEAVES. Oh. autumn leaves! Summer's blight roses one by one have past, Gone is the beantv of the golden leaves; Yu camo at last. Prophets of winter hours approaching fast. Oh, autumn leaves' Why look ye thus so brilliant in decay! Why, fur toe dying year when nature grieve', Are ye so gay, With richer hues than graced her opening nay? ' Oh. autumn leave:! Ye. as ye don your crimson robes of mirth, While dull decay n moment scarce reprieves ■ Your forme from earth — Ye till us. hap] r far is d> ath tl im birth! Oh. autumn leaves! Like you the dying saint in splender grows! W itli each fail.t pulse of life that feebly llC*vos At evening’s clote, lit; ev ry grace with added glory grows. Oh, autumn leaves! l.isu you, he casts aside all lines of gkom, | Aud cl his bright’ning hopes achaplet weaves That o’er his tomb Throws the glad promise of eternal bloom. The Mnn Hater. Goodness gracious.' how 1 wish you could see her, tiie little woman opposite, who 1 goes about as if she was stepping uponi 1 cambric needles:—whose mouth is purs- 1 cd up to the size of of a shirt buttom, and 1 to small that a whole word never can get i out of it without being bit oil'; the little ' woman whose hair is neverjlossed or turn- ■' bled and upon whose person every article ' of clothing sets as though it were stuck 1 on with starch. I don’t doubt you would 1 speculate upon her looks and actions quite 1 ns much as Ido. I don’t doubt you 11 would say, as I think that the litttle creature is made out of Poland starch and broom handles, and that if she made an ; attempt to bend in any way whatever, she would of a certain, brake short off. But if you could once hear her discourse ‘ upon the oi posite sex, you would forget ■ idl ab ,ut her packed up mouth, spectac-. lt d i -s, and whakbony appealance, gen-j t rally. ‘Met i-l.e exclaims, while her eves’ glitter behind her glasses, ‘a set of false ! deceivers coarse souled, unfeeling, low minded, base not-to-be-ts listed, no heart-' id, unwomanly creatures! And how any woman, who has her senses, can be so blind to her own interests, and give up all lights, and consent to be swallowed up, heart, soul and individuality in marriage is t r-u-l-y surprising! ’But there are some gcod men.’ 'There are none but what are treacherous 1 i.nd dee •itful. I would not trust my si If, : if I were alone to the care of the very best man that ever lived for Ihe space of one hour. I shouldn't consider myself, ( afe. 1 shudder at the vel y thought of it. ’Why, for mercy’s sake, Aunt Mary, what man would ever want to harm you’!', I ask her. ‘You haven’t seen so much of their treac. cry in I have, poor child!' is her reply. ‘Are you happy, living here alone?’ ‘Happy! there isn’t n married woman in town who takes so much comfort ns 11 do. I have neither men nor dirt upon my , premises. I have no tobacco spitting or, cigar smoking to annoy me. I don’t have to run here, there and everywhere! to pick up ol ! boots nnd shoes, and gloves 1 I ain very La jpy and contented, and I wish every young woman could be induced to live independently' as I do.’ Heaven save them from such a life; Aunt Mary! A life long home, without j •a boot or shoe, or glove’ in it! I would as soon think of buying a bonnet without strings, a table without legs, or trying a Limp without a wick in it, as making up my mind toenjoy myself in such a dull, dreary place. A cigar is shocking, positively shocking, but I would rather snuff cigar smoke any reasonable length of time each day of my life, than plump myself down in a great big, clean, ordeily, carpeted, curtained Louse, where I was certain ti.at there would never one come, as the world could twit •Who loved me, whom 1 loved.’ A Lome wl.cre 1 should glow old, e.'Usty and selfish in my loneliness. A home where the dancing feet of childhood could hot come; where there would be no soft prayers uttered at night-fall, no ‘good night,’dropped from bright, rosy lips;no lair, young head pillowed upon My bosom. h > .reng manly hi art, to cheer and slieuglhen me, and nine whom 1 i ul.i cheer and itrcngthen.

auwiweaare; mww .nurxx mm t-— h ~h u isi i>wihiji.—» >M h Pekin. The Capitol of China. Lies about six and twenty miles south of the great wall, in tl.e northern part ol the province of Petcheli. A high wall divides the city into two parts, the latter in the form of a parallelogram, the former in that of a square. Both are enclosed with walls, and cover an area of seventeen miles in circuit; die walls of the • Court City are forty’ feet in height and twenty in thickness, forming a rampart for horsemen to ride upon, for which purpose there is at intervals a gentle slope which cavalry can ascend. Above the , walls of the Manchoo town rise towers, ■ nine tones high. At every interval of ; forty yards are small square towers, and larger ones at the angles flanking the Walls. The population has been esfimatied parties at tl.rce millions, two millions, ' and one million, Some Lave even placed ! it as low as six of seven hundred thousand.j i The streets are spacious, and laid out, ’ for the most part, in straight lines, un-. paved but clean. The houses are low J built of brick, and tiled; the shops hand-' seme, and the goods costly and various. In the Court City, one half the area is! occupied by palaces, public edifices, pow-I der magazines, temples, lakes, and by the | imperial palace, which is composed of' numerous buildings, courts and gardens. It is rather a town than a palace, and ' contains residences for every one in the emperor’s service, from the highest officer ’ of the Slate down to the poorest mechan- , ic. It is a league in circumference; and its gardens from avast, park which ex-, ceeds in beauty and richness the most gor-j geous description of Eastern romance. — 1 Pekin lias twelve large suburbs, which of ■ themselves from a considerable city; and t the whole stands in the midst of a sandy, , arid plain, destitute of all vegetation.— i I The heat is oppressive in summer, and ! the water is frozen from the middle of! i December till march. An army of 80,-1 000 men is maintained withoutthe walls: i end there is also a body of police whose principle duty is to prevent famine. On Instructive Lesson. A short while ago as we sat thinking over '.re frailties of our race our eye chanced to fall upon the web of a spider, around which was playing an unsuspecting fly, unconscious of the danger which surrounded it. The wary spider scanned' i closely its movements, but stirred not.! calmly biding hiding his time. He bad j not long to wait, the fly, charmed with . the beauty of the nest, soon made the fa- ’ ml plunge. No sooner trapped than with : fem ful bounds its sought to force itself and ! for a time the contest seemed doubtful. ! While they were warrying for the mas-1 tery, another noble prize was entrapped, but the spider, true to its interest, made I no effort whatever to secure it but sought j rather the securement of that which was ' ' still in jeopardy. And as we reflected' ' upon the spider’s coutse we found that it! ! had been wise and proper, for had he loosened his hold upon one, both would doubtless have eluded his grasp. How instructive the lesson—and bow unlike the course pursued by man? He. ! not content to secure enough, is ever i grasping for more. And bow often does he in grasping for everything ger nothing. ' Let us henceforth learn wisdom from the j spider. It teaches the one great lesson of happiness —contentment.

Intimacies Between young Woman I am not fond, says Madame de Genlis, of tb.o close intimacies often formed between very young women. Believe me, it is not a friend they seek, neither is it a guide or adviser, for they may find these in a mother or sister, but a kind and I j complying confidante. They begin by ! disclosing to each other ull the little sejerets of their past lives, till by degrees their imaginations are heated, and to prove that they have the strictest confidence in each other, they betray their inmost thoughts, particularly on their love .tli’air.', on which their communications •are generally < x iggerated, and give false ideas of the conquest they have made.— ■ la tliese little anecdotes their vanity freI quen ly alters the facts or conceals the the truth; tliev acquire a taste for intriI gue and a habit of telling lies, in order to ’ convince their friend (lor whom they no ■ longer care than w hile she will listen to their late tale) o( their lively and p issionl ate esteem. From what I have observed ■ I think it right to guard young people ’ against forming such altachinenls, of 1 which they are generally 100 fond. ‘H’lloa, there! why in such a hurry Where are you going?’ ! G ing! I’m running for an offico!’ 1 -What office?’ ■The •'’quire’s office, I’m ivied,’
