Twt Vcnrs Old. Flaying on the carpet near ine Is a little cherub girl; And her presence, much I fear me, Sets my senses in a whirl. For a book is open Iving, Full of grave philosophylng. And I own I'm vainly trying There my thoughts to hold! Rut in spite of my essaying, They will erer more be straying; To the cherub near me playing, Only two years old. With her hair so long and Piaxen, And her sunny eyes so blue; And her cheek so plump and waxen, She is charming to the view. There her voice to all who hear It Breathes a sweet entrancing spirit; O! to be fotever near it Is a joy untold For 'tis ever sweetly telling To my heart with rapture swelling, Of afl'ection idly dwelling Only two years old. With a new delight I'm hearing All her sweet attempt at words, In their melody endearing. Sweeter far than any bird'6; And the musical mistaking, Which her baby lips are making, From my heart a charm is waking, Firmer in its bold. Than the charm so rich and glowing From the Roman's lips o'erllowiug; Then she gives a looking Only two years old! Now her ripe and honied kisses
(Honied, ripe for me alone.) Fill my soul with various blisses Venus never vet has known!
When her twining arms are round me All domestic joy hath crowned me, And a fervent spell hath bound me, Never to grow cold, O ! there's not this side of Eden, Aught with loveliness so laden As my little cherub maiden, Only two years old!

From the Mew York Tribune. The itlninr l.axr. The State of Maine has doubtless a good many laws some higher, some lower but there is
one honored throughout the length and breadth j of the land aspreeminently. 'The Maine Law.' j It is the act of her present Legislature at its late j session whereby the traffic iu Alcoholic Liquors i is cut up root and branch not merely forbidden j buteradieated or compelled to bide in deep holes j and skulk about the darkest corners. This law
t ii.i3 now ueii some su monius in operation, ana j has already efieeted a vast amount of good.
Drunkenness is dying out, Pauperism is drying up.aud Murder is scarcely heard of or dreaded. All honor to Maine and the The Maine Law!' There seems to be hardly room for doubt that the Law will not only be enforced but sustained. A meeting was called in Lisbon, Lincoln Co. a few days since, to instruct the representatives of that town to vole for its repeal. The voters generally attended, and voted as follows. For the
Instructing Resolve,33; Against it, 147,or more than four to one! A similar meeting was lately held in Ellsworth with an equally favorable result. Up to this moment, we have not heard of asinsrietown instructing its representative to
vote in favor of repeal. The people of Maine are compelled to maintain a constant warfare with the liquor merchants of Boston especially, who, though 'lower law' with respect to Slave-catching, are 'higher law as relates to Rum-selling. Surrounded by Rum-selling and Rum-tolerating States, they have an unequal fight to maintain; and they wil! maintain it; but they justly appeal to other States to dry up the desolating flood which now
assails them on every side and threatens to sweep over them. That appeal must and will be responded to. Every other New-England State will make a gallant struggle in her next election for a No-License law based on that of Maine.
We trust most of them will carry it, and that New-York New-Jersey and Ohio will do likewise. Why should we lag behind? Is it the Empire State that needs an impulse from Maine to induce her to diminish the load of Pauperism, Misery and Crime now pressing upon her? Hear what Gen. Cary, the energetic Temper
ance lecturer.says of Ohio. We intend to ask the Maine law, subject to a decision at the ballot box. We shall challenge those who say that public sentiment will not
sustain such a law, to meet us in the upon field

In time oflVwrc Prrpnrefor M ar. A young lady of wealthy parents, a fledgling from one of our most fashionable board ing schools, a type of modern excellence, was recently united by the silken tie of matrimon y, to a gem of a beau. The mamas and papas on both sides being surrouuded by all the concomitants of luxury, and the many little agreeable paraphnalia bespeaking the possession of the "dust.' determined to get a fine establishment for the young people, and they were accordingly 'fixed' in a splendid Mansion in Walnut street. A few days after this, a school companion
of our heroine called upon her, and was surprised to find so many servants about the house. "Why, Mary," said she, "what in tho name of sense have you so many people about for?" "Oh," replied Madam," we haven't any more than we want. There is but one cook, one chambermaid, two house girls.one housekeeper,
and achild's nurse? I'm sure there are not too
many." "Ha! ha!" said her friend, "what do you want
with a child's nurse? Oh! that is funny." "Well, we havn't any immediate use fot her,
but when we were married, Charles said that we would want one, and you know its not al vays best to let things be until the last moment."
