THE FAREWELL. 

 Days of my cherished youth, farewell ! 



Ye fleeting joys, adieu I 

 Hence, Memory ! hence thy potent spell ! 

 Cease on the happy past to dwell, 

 Nor vain regrets renew .' 

 Hope, joy, and Love, ye spectres bright, ye vanished 

 shades, adieu I 



Thoughtless and young, a wreath offlowcrs 



Around my brows I bound. 

 And fondly sought those blooming bowers, 

 Where, circled by the laughing Hours, 

 I dreamt that Love was found ; 

 Fancy and Hope before me flew, and scattered fragrance 

 round. 



Days of my cherished youth, farewell 1 



Ye pleasant scenes, adieu ! 

 No more of tranquil hours ye tell, 

 When all unheard Time's footsteps fell. 



And all unheeded, flew ; 

 Dreams of the roseate morn of life, a long and last adieu! 



NEW ENGLAND FARMER. 



Art of Livinu; Happily. — The following max- 

 ims, or rules of action, might, if strictly obseiv- 

 ed, go far to increase the happiness, or a least 

 to diminish (he inquietudes and miseries of 

 life :— 



Observe inviolably, (ruth in your words, and 

 integrity in your actions. 



Accustom yourself to temperance, and be 

 master of your passions. 



Be not too much out of humor with the 

 world ; but remember il is a world of God's 

 creating ; and however sadly it is marred by 

 wickedness and fo'.ly ; yet you have found in it 

 more comforts than calamities, inorc civilities 

 than alhonts ; more instances of kindness to- 

 »vards you than of cruelty. 



Try to spend your lime usefully, both to 

 yourself and others. 



Never make an enemy, or lose a friend, un- 

 necessarily. 



Cultivate such an habitual cheerfulness of

Rfflecliotis upon tlie Growth of Lu.cnry. — '■ I 

 have often reflected how much Luxury has in- 

 creased in London of late years. Jlown beds, 

 soft pillows, and easy seals are species ol' luxu- 

 ry in which I have never indulged, because 

 they tend to enervate the body, and render it 

 unfit for fatigue. I always make use of iiafd 

 mattresses, and accustom mysellio the open air 

 in all weather. 1 literally know two yniing la- 

 dies of high cpialily, (sisters) who employed a

Legal Dexterity. — Serjeant Davy haviiig abus-

The Rich and the Poor.— The rich have the 

 most meat; the poor have the best appetite. — 

 The rich lay the sol'lesl ; the poor sleep the 

 soundest. — The poor have health. — The rich 

 have delicacies.— The rich hang themselves 

 through fear of poverty ; the poor (such as have 

 always been poor) laugh and sing, and love, 

 their wives too well to jiut their necks into the 

 noose. 



The following anecdote, which illustrates 

 very forcibly the condition of the soldiers of a 

 despotic government is from the Paris Etoile 

 of the 2:3d January. 



It is said tiiat during the revolt at St. Peters- 

 burgh, the promoters of it wished to make the 

 soldiers cry ; "Long live Conslantine ; long live 

 the Constitution !" The soldiers ntit knowing 

 who or what the constitution was, shewed much 

 reluctance to cry out in its favour — when the 

 instigator'^, [lul to their trumps, exclaimed that

 Saturdays without charge for conveyance ; but Gen- 

 tlemen remote should employ some person to receive 

 and pay for them. 



In removing trees, one yfar's growth is frequently 

 lost, if the trees happen to survive, by unreasonably di- 

 minishing thtir roots; therefore special care wi"ll be

to make up diOerences, and shun litigation 

 yourself as much as possible ; for he is an ill 

 calculator who does not perceive that one ami- 

 cable settlement is better than two lawsuits. 



Be it rather your ambition to acquit yourself 

 well in your proper station than to rise above 

 il. 



Deppise not small honest gains, and do not 

 risk what you have on the delusive prospect of 

 sudden riches. If yon are in a comforl.ible 

 thriving way, keep in it, and abide your own 

 calling rather than run the chance of another. 

 In a word, miod to " use the world as not abu'- 

 insj it," and probably you will tind as much com- [f5=CRUI)E ROCK SALT.— The Subscribtr has
