MISCELLANY.

FROM THE CONNECTICUT HERALD. LOVE SICK WILLY. Ooe Willy Wright, who kept a store, But nothing kept therein, Sve earlben jugs and some few kegt Of whiskey ale and gin Grew tick and often would exclaim, Oh bow my heart does burn! And every week the poor man lived He had a weakly turn. Now when they saw bim thus decline, Some said that death must come; Some wondcr'd what bis ail could be; Some said bis ale was rum. At last the very cause was known Of every pang he felt llemote at one end of the town, Miss martha Towns-end dwelt; A portly, love-resisting dame, Contemptuous proud and haughty; But yet, though 4kfat and forty" too; She was not two and forty. And Willy long had sought and sigh'd To gain this pretty maid; I have oo trade,' said be, 'so sura My love can't be be-fray'd.' To Martha then be. trembling went, And said, 'Mv dear 'tis true, Though I have nothing in my store, I've love in store for you. And if thou wilt thou may 'at becomeBut here bis tongue was tied; And thriugh she trilled, yet she said She ne'er would be his bride. Then turning Willy out of doors, Said she, 'Co, go along; ! hate the man who's always Wright, Yet always doing wrong.' i leave you then,' said be, 'farewell! Of peace I'm now bereft If I ani always Wright and wrong, You must be right, and left. So then . he closed bis little store, Shut up each door and blind; And settled bis accounts and died, And left no Will behind From the N. Y. Enquirer. iShe has finished her Education. Do you observe that young lady with a compressed shape an enormous French hat asuperabuudance ofchains, bracelets, crosses, golden hearts, &z,c. &LC mincing her steps through Broadway? 'She has finished her education.'' Observe Miss Priasy, with her hair en papilott, ber slippers slip-shod, her calico morning gown unhooked, her eyes half closed, and her mouth in the sulks, slide to the breakfast table at 9 o'clock. 'She has finished her education.'' See that vnnnor hidv lolling on thf lipii and rrvinrr over a novel. 'She has also finished .j... rvi i. u.tCUULUilUl. Ulill li. UK' 1111..

Bennet play 'Go to the devil and shake yourself.' 'Engaged, sir, for the next six cotillions.' 'She. has likewise finished her education.' Tiie fact is, that young ladies, at the present day, finish tneir education' before they have actually commenced. They mistake the mere elementary and introductory part of their education for the commencement, when, in fact, the commencement may be dated from that period when mind and faculty develope themselves, and embrace, in a comprehensive manner, all the details and items of early instruction, giving to each, force, stability and finish. It is before the flower puts forth its genial budsT that it is taken from the parent stalk, and though admired and caressed for a time, it soon withers. The Liverpool Albion, in noticing this sirbjeet, remarks 'There is a lady, of whom I have some knowledge, that ''finished her education," by leaving peculiarly good advantages at an early age. She is now a wife, and the mother of six children. She plays well upon the piano sings sweetly dance9 elegantly is very polite, &c. but her husband must, and Actually y does put all the children to bed, and takes-care ofthem through the night; and as to her table, the bread is execrable, to one who has visited his grand mothers pantry and her cofTee O! her coffee! it would cost her head, if the very scent of it reached the Grand Turk's palace and yet the lady has finished? her education.' Political Hats. Several different fashions of hats are now struggling for the mastery: the broad-brimmed and the narrow-brimmed, the broad-crowned and the narrow-crowned. These different peculiaiities admit of many combi nations-such as the double broad and the double narrow, the broad brim with Barrow crownrand the broad crown with narrow brim. We have heard that certain of the different fashions are beginning to be patronised by adverse political parties ; but we devoutly hope it is not true. Should this custom become universal, every politician would, like Cain, have a mark set upon him; and there is no telling to what excesses it would lead. Men would make the breadth oruarrowiress of their brims proportionate to the

warmth of their sentiment?. The most violent oh one side would have no brims

at all, and those on the other would make theirs so enormous as to stiame the beavers of Ephraim Smooth and Simon Pure; nay, they might expand them to such a zealous breadth, that each wearer would be obliged to usurp the whole width of the side-walk! Nor is this all: should any commotion take place in the streets, each man would immediately know how to distinguish his political opponents: toe hostile beavers would immediately arrange them selves on opposite sides, and a fracas would ensue, more to the emolument 01 hatters and surgeons, than to the bene fit of public tranquility. O, let not this come to pass! but, as dinerent fashions become different persons, let every one select a hat to harmonise with the length of his nose, or narrowness of his visage, rather than with his hot-headed opponents.

been. Boston Spectator. The Tailor and the Conjurer, A conjurer and a tailor, once happened to converse together. Alas! cries the tailor, wbat an unhappy, poor creature am I. If peopU should ever take it into their heads to live without clothes, i have no other trade to bare recourse to. Indeed, friend, I pity you sincerely, replied the conjurer. JJut thank heaven, things are not quite so bad with me; for if oue trek should fail I have a hundred tricks left. However, if at any time you are reduced to begyary, apply to me, and 1 will relieve you. A fawioe overspread the land; the tailor made a shift to live, because his customers could not be without clothes; but Ihe poor conjorer, with all bis hundred tricks, could find none that had money to throw away. It was in vain that be promised to eat fire, or vomit pins no single crea ture would relieve him, till he was Bt last ohH!fedkt0, fr! Jbe Ter "hof c M had formerly despised. Goldsmith.

In reading their lucubrations wn are frequently reminded of the following occurence. Some twenty or twenty-five years since, in a neighboring town, dwelt a farmer of some cons onance in his neighborhood, but not noted for bis erudition or knowledge. Being a subscriber to a newspaper, as all good citizens should be, he imbibed no small degree of the party zeal which characterized most of the papers of those times. About the time we are speaking of, his favorite paper adopted t motto, reading in this tnannsr; "J?e JUst andear notV SlIAKSPEARE. When it came to hand be was quietly seated in his arm chair, and taking it up, the first thing that struck his eye was the new motto, which be read and punctuated thus. "Be just, and fear not Shakspeare.'' This admo nition, as he took it to be, ushered forth in staring capitals, could not fail to arouse all his political zeal. "Shakspeare I" he exclaimed, at the same time jumping out of his chair and clenching both fists, "I'll bav'em to know that I don't faar Shakspeare nor any other federalist .".Mass. Spy.

A correspondent whe had noticed, in a recent number of our jour nal, a paragraph recommendiog ground cork, fried in greece, as an efficacious plan for des troying rats stated that he lately put the plan to the test of experience, and completely suc ceeded. I he case was that of two old women in the village of Denny, who had lived in two detached garret rooms of the same building. The rats bad long b?en troublesome, but at length become so numerous and daring, that they fairly threatened to challenge the tenants with longer possession. The fried cork had only been laid for them three nights before tbe whole disappeared. A fact of this kind cannot be made too public since it may be the means of preventing many of those serious accidents which so frequently occur from the use of poison, Stirling Journal,

As the late beautiful duchess of De

vonshire was one day stepping out of her carriage, a dustman, was accidentally standing by, and was about to regale himself with his accustomed whiff of tobacco, caught a glance of her countenance, and instantly exclaimed, "Love and bless you, my lady, let me light my pipe in your eyes!" It is said that the duchess was so delighted with this compliment, that she frequently afterwards checked the strain of adulation, which was constantly offered to her charms, by saying, "Oh! after the dustman's compliment, all others are insipid."
