MISCELLANY.

From the Kentucky Gazette. SWEET KITTY OF THE HILL. Near a well known neighboring stream, There lives a maid enchanting; The cause of cuny a lover's dream, And project for supplanting. Admiring friends and numerous beaux, Her ears with praises fiil ; This name for her, admirers chose, Sweet Kitty of the Hill. The daughter of a patriot bold, Such teas her noble sire ; Her beauty's such that none behold Who do not her admire. Her virtues and her noble heart With admiration fill ; Her beaux feel love's delightful smart For Kitty of the Hill. When Kitty smiles her lovers fond Hope's cheering influence feel, But if she frown they soon despond How altered is the scene ! The North wind cold or winter's snow Her lovers cannot chill So soon as frowns upon the brow Of Kitty of the Hill. Her taste refined, her talents rare, Her like men seldom see, The loveliest of the lovely fair, Long may she happy be. And happier than all men beside, He who, by Heaven's will, Shall please and make his happy bride Sweet Kitty of the Hill. Lothario, " lnc wv? """" THE OLD COXDW.UXEH Tn tUm. C U K 1 f . ..-oil ... . 1W)U, , . . ..... . uur tradesmen were honest and ne'er thougnt 01 clieating, And what is still strange, they would all gD to meeting ! There was Shoemaker Lot, 2 remember the spot, And the bench where he sat, With the strap o'er his knee ; He was honest and fair. And exact to a hair, And a faithful old cordwainer he. One moonshiny night (-hangsgivinjr was coming) I mounted in haste uncle Jeremy's mare, 'Off DobWn," said I, "let your trotters be drumming Towards uncle Lot's & she soon had me there, O, good uncle Lot, I remember the spot, And the bench where he sat, With the strap o?er his knee Our shoes were all ready For me and for Neddy, And Sally and Betty, And Dolly and Hetty, And a faithful old cordwainer he Then there wag the stitching so sfrong h. so nice, Why the threads held the leather as firm as a vice. There was none of your pegging, and none of your nailing, And there was no fretting, & scalding, & railing, When Shoemaker Lot He worked on the spot, Which I've not forgot, With the strap o"er his knee How strong he would sew thera ! 1 wish he'd now show thc-m, What a faithful old cordwainer he. But alas! now a days how changed is th'13 matter! or one scarce nas a coat, or a shoe, or a garter, . . i mat lasts more than three weeks before 'tis u;rr n Aiif I i And honesty seems to be begging about ; O, that some uncle Lot Would again Uke the 3pot, And the bench where he sat With the strap o'er his knee, And work at the trade, And have shoes faithful made, Ho cheat and no cozen, Ko rips by the d-zen, What a useful cordwainer he'd be !

PXR CONTRARY. Angry manners, vicious lives, Make wretched husbands dreadful wives, And hence such evils take their birth, As make a little hell on earth. , FrOM THE EMPORIUM. 'Heavy Hearts and light Hearts. "What is the use of it? Trouble, trouble, trouble, what a world of it we have "man is born to trouble" and "all is vanity and vexation of spirit" thus and thus it is written. There are the troubles of infancy, of youth, of manhood, of old ate? The troubles of poverty, and the troubles of riches! The trouble of living and the trouble of dyins;! Who has not his troubles; who claims exemption from them? Who sees the end of them? And vet, after all, zjUafs the use of it? This-fretting and repining; this sorrowing and sighing; this moping and mourning; making misery more miserable. In the name ofi common sense, I say, w-hafs the use of it? Docs it sooth pain; soften aiiliction; or ward olF misfortune? Will it call back deceased friends, or prevent others from dying, or deliver us from poverty, or

imalce us healthy, or moderate in one par

ticular our condition? Then do say, for the very sake of sadness, what s the use of it? Suppose the times are tight and pinch ing; that trade is dull; that you cannot make money enough to live as you would wish, and are obliged to labour harder even for the little you obtain than is agreeable; do you grieve about it? are you sad disheartened ? do you abanPshaw! whaCs the use of it? you will al ways get along, if you are industrious &, frugal ; and the most fortunate do no more. Besides a light heart will not break your fortune, nor a heavy one make it, so you may as well have the one as the other. Is it your misfortune to have one of those pests of society, a slanderous neighbor, who speaks ill of you, and delights to do you every secret backhanded injury he can; who never tails secretly to traduce your character, misJ represent your conduct and motives, and ever tries to excite prejudice against you? And does this discompose and trouble you? what's the use of it? Keep the windward of the fellow, let your actions give the lie to his accusa-; tions, and you need not employ words for the purpose. Wait the issue and vou will see the maxim verified in his case, "that he who spitteth against the wind, spitteth in his own face." And here too it may be remembered that a heavy heart is no answer to an accusation, though it be a false one, and that a liKht heart is not the heart that pleads J fa f , d P ' 1 J therefore, have the last than the first on all accounts. Are men dishonest? will a long face and a sad heart reform them? are you sometimes deceived, wronged, cheated? will being discouraged mend the matter, or melancholy make jou sharper in fu ture dealings? not a whit. Losses are lessons; all men buy their experience at the same market, though all may not pay the same pi ice for the commodity. The only way is to make much of what comes dear: and you can do this witn a !ight heart bter than a heavy one A heavy heart! whaCs the use of it? But it may be things don't go on right at home; that you have a scolding wife, cross children, Sz, with all an extravagant family that theres bad management in the wigwam. Well this is very sad; but will fretting make it better? will a sad heart make the sunshine in a cloudy house? No then what's the use of it? ou are not the hrst in the world who miht sin. "First when Maggy was my care, Heaven, 1 thought, was in her air rVow we're married spier nae mair." And every hen pecked husband may as well add the conclusion "Whistle o'er the lave o't." I see no profit in being miserable in this case; a light heart is still better than a heavy heart. Perhaps all this while some love sick body has been running over line after line, to see if I had ought to say why he should not be unhappy. An unkind mistress: a hard heart : an indefatigable ' -j rjva. coouetrv: ah, here is Pandora7 W - ' Thmi hat frntten thvsplf into a O v pretty pickle but, "Pray if looking well can't mo?e ber, Will looking ill prevail?' What think you of that, now I know it is useless to tell a meditating, moonloving, melancholy lover, that there are whole flocks of pretty girls in the world, that if unsuccessful this time, he may easily fall in love again and again; or that his mistress is not altogether the paragon of perfection ; these are all cold water compliments, and are marvellously insipid to such a taste as his. He must e'en go his way sorrowing; marriage only will make him wise. I have done. Those who are merry will be merry still; and those who are unhappy will remain so after all; yet it is a good and a pleasant thing, occasionally to have a talk with the world about its follies.

I think 1 will buy a ship for Jack; Tom shall be a counsellor; Patty, yes, Patty shall marry the English Ambassador. "I am worth one hundred thousand dollars! I was just sixty-five last Christmas. I am hale and strong. Go to: I'll withdraw from the bustle of the world, and the busy hum of the Exchange, I'll retire and enjoy myself. "Good!" continued old Jacobs, manfully striving up the mountain's side, "Good! I am worth at least one hundred thousand dollars! Aye, here I'll build me a warm mansion there I'll plaut my or-

chard on this side, I will have my summer-house round yonder angle, we'll run up the stable and here 1 will dig the ice-house. What! must I have all those unsightly wooden houses blocking my view? Ko matter, I can purchase them of my brother merchant, Mr. Hicks; and then, every one of them shall come down." "Consider, sir, for a moment,' obsered old Jacobs' land agent, "consider: what will those poor people do, if jou pull down their huts?v: "Do do let

them do as they can; 'tis no concern of of mine. And, hark ye, 31 r. Agent; do you see that mill, which makes such a noisy clack? do you see, 1 say, how its wheel obstructs the stream which waters my grounds? Come, no words! that shall come down too." Sosacelv determined old Jacobs: and he went home pleased with the project of his brain. lie supped heartih lie took his hot punch cracked hi? jokes smoked four cigars aird went to bed. A tit of apoplexy came on suddenly at night, and old Jacobs never more awoke ! The "unsightly wooden houses" therefore still stand; and their inhabitants continue their avocations.
