MISCELLANEOUS. "A mapper tip of unconsidered trifles. "S h akespere. O! THERE ARE TEARS. Written by the "Milford Bard,' in 1827. O! there are tears by beauty shed, Upon the lonely grave; They fall for friends and kindred dead, And for the worthy brave: On sorrow's breast they melt in care, The fell musicians of despair. O! there are tears that brightly flow, When parted friends embrace; They bid the beating bosom glow, Remembrance to retrace: And they are call'd the gems of joy, Pure and unmix'd, without alloy. O! there are tear3 of wrath and wrong, That gush in boiling streams; They nerve the arm of vengeance strong, And haunt the maniac's dream: They are the streams of rage and care, Sacred to anger and despair. O! there are tears in love's yaung eye. Bright as the dews of morn; And there are tears that none may dry They chill the heart forlorn: Where disappointments coldly fall, They often dew the sable pall. And there are tears that burst the goal, Of Nature's feeble eye; They purify the sinful soul, To take its flight on high: And they are tears of innocence, That spring from humble penitence.

Militant Gloru. The editor of the Boston

Courier, in reviewing the "Wondrous Tale of

Alroy," a new English novel by the author 01 Contarini Fleming,fnakesthe following remarks:

In the second place, the principle or argument

r,ffVi nnv-pl ia h.id. Its theme is glory. Its

object the indulgence of ambition. Its idol a

military hero, in the nrst story, tins -mie goiu is made dim" by ill-placed love ; in the second,

(and they seem to reflect one another as the inside of a football does the outer,) its lustre is

heightened by judicious marriage. Jiut,as glory is the presiding genius, we must confess the truth we do not like it. We are peace-men to the bone. Our fanaticism is to despise military fame.

We positively hate it. It has caused unutterable wees. The debt of England, the ignorance cf Austria, the annihilation of Poland it has

caused them all. We have not the slightest faith in the diplomacy of armies, the decisions of battles, the arguments of cannon. It stands condemned by the revealed word, and by the elder gospel on man's heart; and, unnatural as it is, we hold that it is perpetuated mainly by such books as these, which introduce her bloody ma

jesty in a gay mask to the friendship, affection

and admiration ol the world.

From the Scrap Book. EDWARD BUCKET'S SECOND COURTSHIP.

Since the scrape I told you about t'other day

I got in with Polly Posey, I have made another

trial at courtm, and 1 got in a worse scrape than

that. You see I went to a country church, whar

I seed Miss Ginney Lovejoy, anwhen she wen

to start home, cousin Joe says to me, there goes a tarnation purty gal, and snose you go home

with her. Well, says I, by hoky will I. So off

I starts and when I got to my horse, my girt was broke, an' I begun to gin out goin,; but Joe says me, it 'ill never do to back out that way,o he

said he'd lend me lnssen. ell, I took oil my

broken girt and doubled it up on my saddle, and

away I goes. I rid up side on her an axed her

if I might go home with her. cshe said I coul

do as I pleased, and so I went cn. Well Ginney

had a pretty considerable chance of fellers after

her, and you may gaess I didn t ride verj-clcsi to her; but we soon got there, and I sot down tol

erable clost to Ginney, and said fine sarmonl to day Miss Ginney, and at that every feller spoke, 1 and that was the last word I got the chance to saj'. But arter a while we all set down to dinner; well, some one of cm' handed me a plate of rice, an' axed me if I'd take some, and 1 was so much confused that I took the plate of rice, an' handed them one that I'd been using. Every one round the table laff'd and I could see that they wanted to laugh more than they did; well, you noe I felt mighty shamed, so I that I'd take to my handkerchief and pretend to wipe my face, and so hide my blushes but guess how flat I felt wheu I pulled out my old broken girt, and slapped it on my face; well, this made all of em' laffrite out, so I dropped it down in my lap, and thought I'd gest cram it in my side pocket to get it out of the way as soon as possible; well you see, the table kiver was so long that it was all in my lap, and in crawmin in the old girt, I stoad away a pretty good lot of the table kiver. Well, I got over that as well as I could, and I thought I was gettin' along pretty well, till we all went to git up from the table, and I'd got to felih' prettry cheery about that time, but in getting up in quite a brisk way, I dragged off the table kiver. All the other fellers broke out in a raal horse laff, and t looked for some hole in the floor to get out at, but the old folks rather apologized for me, and gist as quick as I could I made off with myself swearing that I never would go courtin again. But next time I seed Ginney she begged pardon for laflin at my mistake, and I fell in love with her over again, and if nothin' happens I'll wear out several girts in going to see her, or she shall marry mighty quick, but if I break ten thousand girts I'll never put another in my pocket. But if I do git her Ml let you know all about the weddin after its all over. EDWARD BUCKET.

P. S. Dont let nobody know about my mistake, for Ginney promises to keep it a secret, and its all smooth now if there aint no more said about

it

" Go it Jl rrtt!" A horse, wit'i saddle and bri

dle, was recently found without a rider, wandering near a country tavern in Ohio. Search having been made, the gentleman owner, essentially drunk, was found mounted astride on a wail "kicking and spurring most furiously," cursing his supposed pony for not moving forward. Having become a little sobered, he discovered his mistake and dismounted, to the no small amusement of the bystanders. Cutting Patterns. "Please sir,"said a snubnosed girl fourteen years of age, to a country dealer in dry goods, "to send ma'am the patterns of your calicoes, and put'em cheap, for she is going to get a new gown soon, and want to sec as what'l wash." Shop-keeper. "Who is your ma'am ?' Girl. "My ma'am is Auat Oil v Dee, sir." Shop-keeper. r" Your sister was here yesterday and took patterns of all the kinds I have." "t Girl.

DR. THOMAS WHITE'S VEGETABLE TOOTHACHE DROPS. THE only specific ever offered to the public, from which a permanent and radical cure may be obtained of that disagreeable pain, the Toothache, with all its attendant evils; such as fracturing the jaw in extracting of the teeth, which often proves more painful than the toothache itself; and cold passing from the decayed teeth to the jaw, thence to the head producing a rheumatic affection, with many other unpleasant effects, such as disagreeable breath, bad taste in

the mouth, &c. all of which are produced from foul or decayed teeth. I am happy to have it in my power to offer to the world a remedy, that will not only remove the pain, nine times out of ten, if properly applied, but preserve the teeth from further decay, and arrest the disease in such as are decaying and have not commenced aching, restoring them to health and usefulness. certificates. Jtlr. Thomas While I have the pleasure to inform you, that agreeably to your request, I have been using your Toothache Drops in my practice for some time past, and I must acknowledge that I find them far superior to any thing I have ever yet known for that pur

pose. You are perfectly safe in recommending them to cure nine times out often; for from the success I have had, 1 believe your recommendation falls short of their merits. I am well convinced that it will cure most cases of Toottache when it is timely and properly applied. I am not prepared to speak of its preservative properties; but what I have seen of your teeth that have long been cured and preserved from decaying, and from a few weeks experience, I am decidedly of the opinion that it will have a beneficial effect in preserving the teeth; and recommend it, hoping that it may prove a blessing to humanity, and advantageous to yourself. With respect, I remain yours, &c.
