THANKSGIVING SONG. 
[The following Thanksgiving song, is by the late Henry 
Ware, Jr., D. I).:] 
Come, uncles and cousins; come, neices and aunts; 
Come, nephews, and brothers,—no wont.s and no cants ; 
Put business, and shopping, and schooI-lxDoks away; 
The year has rolled round;—ills Thanksgiving day. 
Come iiome from the college, ye ringlet-haired youth. 
Come home from your factories, Ann Kate, and Ruth; 
From the anvil, the counter, the farm come away; 
Home, home, with you, hoir»;—it is Thanksgiving day. 
The table is spread, and the dinner is dres.sed; 
The cooks and the mothers Iiave all done their best: 
No caliph of Bagdad e’er saw such display. 
Or dreamed of a treat like our Tlianksgiving day. 
Pies, puddings, and custards, pigs, oysters, and nuts,— 
Come forward and seize them without ifs or buts; 
Bring none of your slim, little appetites here;— 
Tlianksgiving day comes only once in a year. 
Thrice welcome the day in its annual round ! 
What treasures of love in its bosom are found ! 
New England’s high holiday ancient and dear ! 
iTwould be tvvice as welcome, if twice in a year. 
Now children revisit the darling old place, 
Now brother and sister, long parted, embrace; 
The ftimily ring is united once more. 
And the same voices shout at the old cottage door. 
The grandfather smiles on the innocent mirth. 
And blesses the Power that has guarded his hearth; 
lie remembers no trouble, he feels no decay. 
But thinks his whole life has been Thanksgiving day. 
Then praise for the past and the present we sing. 
And trustful await what the future may bring: 
Let doubt and repining lie banished away. 
And tlie whole of our lives be a Thanksgiving day.

Though formed like men I’m part of clay— 
I’ve but one foot to tread the way ; 
I’m great in fame, though fond of doubt— 
I’m hunter, when there’s game about; 
Yet for a man, in vain you try. 
Who has so many trades as I ; 
I’m smith or mason, at your will— 
I’m cooper though no casks I fill; 
I’m porter, butler, at your call. 
And when in power, I’m king withal, 
I dwell upon the solid ground. 
Yet here the sturgeon docs abound. 
And here the badger may be found. 
Whene’er the clouds en masse contend. 
Anil liquid floods from heaven descend. 
In rain or snow Ive not a word. 
But in the hail my voice is heard. 
I often speak, and oft am seen,—

WHAT “THEY” SAY OF THE NEW-YORKER. 
The Rural New-Yorker. —'Fhis is a handsome 
weekly folio, of eight pages, published at Roches¬ 
ter, by D. D. T. Moore, late of the Genesee Far¬ 
mer. It is edited by an association of gentlemen. 
Three pages arc devoted to Agriculture, Horticul¬ 
ture, and Domestic Economy; one to Mechanic Arts 
and Sciences; one to Education; and three to the 
News of the day, literature, &c. We are thus 
particular in stating the arrangement of this new 
weekly, for wo think it a model paper for the far¬ 
mer's family, and of a kind much more likely to be 
generally patronised, than those purely agricultural. 
The New-England w'eekly papers, conducted in this 
style, pay much better than those strictly agricul¬ 
tural, and if we were to start a periodical again, it 
would be in imitation of the Rural New-Yorker. — 
American Agriculturist. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is one of the 
finest things in the way of a w’eekly paper that has 
lately m.ade its appearance. All the subjects indi¬ 
cated by its title are ably treated in its columns, and 
its pages arc beautified by clean and neat type, and 
a plenty of engravings.— Utica Teetotaller.
