NEW ENGLAND FARMER. 



u s. 



APRIL S, 1830 



For the iNew England Farmer. 

 GREASE. 



" My theme is homely— what of that .' 

 All do confess 'tis riJh and lal " 



Old Dogorkl. 

 Do you know fanner Jfiiih hard, that craving old wight.' 



He 'a all an acquisitive bump. 

 How active for thrift ! yet, for spending witlial, 



You find him, "as still as a stump." 

 He h;iscart.s, he has wagons, and barrows, and gates; 



But hi.s implements give him no peace. 

 For, while they arc moving, they screech and they .scream, 

 Because Rub afibrd.s thum no grease. 



But in fanner BriglUaU, so liearty and cheer, 



A character different yon .see. 

 'Tis not all for self that his hands arc engaged ; 



And his heart is e'er open and free. 

 A generous Hving he grudges to none ; 



And he says, — " would you jog on in peace, 

 Then never withhold this expense of a groat ; 

 fe. We can't go ahead without ;?7-eaie." 



'Tis sdrely the case with each one of us all, 



Let wishes be whatever they may, 

 Some friction or other our movements impedes, 



Unless we will smooth it away. 

 Economy, prudence, both very good friends. 



For our health, Pjrour purse, for our peace, 

 And Ihcy too persuade us there's ne'er a bit lost, 



Should we spend a few shillings for ^reoM. 



Mechanics, and merch:mts, professionals too. 

 Are all but so many machines, 



With their wheels and their gudgeons, their sockets and 

 slides. 



And their cranks and their rollers and pins. 

 Some operate easy, while others rub hard. 



And some too all action will cease. 

 Because their is lacking this " unguent of joy ;" 



In plain phraseology — grease. 



A poet's a Grahamite,— living on air 



His exercise all in the skies. 

 In a feathered sedan, with the Mu.se 



lo Pman ! through ether he hies 

 Mlons ! ah ! Pegasus now lags on hi 



Refusing his speed to increase ; 

 Still falters ;— the vehicle comes to a stand ; — 



The poet, alas I h,xs no grease.

ne.ss about truth, than from intentional lying that 



there is so much falsehood in the world. Dr 



Johnson. 



Conversation. — Conversation sliould be pleasant 

 without scurrility, witty without affectation, free 

 without indecency, learned without conceitedness, 



novel witiiout falsehood ShaJcspeare. 



Education of Children. — The education of a 

 child is principally derived from its own nbservation 

 of the actions, the words, the voice, the looks, of 

 those with whom it lives. — Bp. Jebb. 



Comforts of the Poor. — The poor man lias his 

 wife and children about him; and what has the 

 rich man more .' He has the same enjoyment of 

 their society, the same solicitude for tlieir welfare, 

 the same pleasure in their jtjood qualities, improye- 

 meiit and success : their connection with him is as 

 strict and intimate, their attachment as strong, 

 their gratitude as warm. I have no propensity to 

 envy any one, lea.st of all the rich and great ; but 

 if I were disposed to tliis weakness, the subject of 

 my envy would be a healthy young man, in full 

 possession of his strength and faculties, going forth 

 in a morning to work for his wife and children, or 

 bringing them home his wages at night. — Patey. 



Time — Tliere is no saying that shocks mo so 

 much, as that which I hear very often, that a man 

 djes not know how lo pass time. It would have 

 been but ill spoken by Methusaleh in the nine 

 hundred and si.xty-ninth year of his life. — Cowley. 

 Source of Cheerfulness. — No man's spirits were 

 ever hurt by doing his duty. On the contrary, one 

 good action, one temptation resisted and overcome, 

 one sacrifice of desire or interest, purely for con- 

 science' sake, will prove a cordial for weak and 

 low spirits beyond what either indulgence, or di- 

 version, or company can do for them — Paley. 



The Humble-minded. — They who are truly hum- 

 ble-minded have no quarrels, give no offence, con- 

 tend with no one in wrath and bitterness ; still 

 more impossible is it for them to insult any man 

 under any circumstances Paley.

The English, Scotch and Irish.-A, has been well 

 satd, I know not by whom, that an Englishman is 

 never happy but when he is miserable; that a 

 55cotcnman is never at home, but when he is abroad; 

 that an Irishman is never at peace but when he is 

 at war.— The Original. 



Man and Jfoman.-lUn is strong ; woman is 

 bcantiful. Man is daring and confident ; woman 

 IS diftdcnt and unassuming. Man is great in ac- 

 tion : woman in suffering. Man shines abroad ; 

 woman at home. Man talks to convince ; woman 

 to persuade and please. Man has a ruo-ged heart • 

 woman a soft and tender one. Man preve.its mis-

A Sister — He who has never know a sister's 

 kind ministration, nor felt his heart warming be- 

 neath her endearing smile and love beaming eye, 

 has been unfortunate indeed. It is not to be won- 

 dered at if the fountains of pure feeling flow in 

 his bosom but sluggishly, or if the gentle" emotions 

 of his nature be lost in the sterner attributes of 

 mankind. 



"That man has grown up among kind affection- 

 ate sisters," I once heard a lady of much observa- 

 tion and experience, remark. 



" And why do you think so ?" said I. 

 " Because of the rich development of all the 

 tender feelings of the heart." 



A sister's influence is felt, even in manhood's 

 riper years and tlie heart of him who has grown 



cold in its chilly contact with the world will 



warm and thrill with pure enjoyment as some in- 

 cident awakens within him the soft tones, the glad 

 melodies of his sister's voice, — and he will turn 

 from purposes which a warped and false philosophy 

 had reasoned into expediency, and even weep for 

 the gentle influences which moved liim in his earli- 

 er years.
