MOORE’S RURAL NEW-YOR KER: AN AGRICULTURAL AND FAMILY JOURNAL. 
LIFE IN THE AUTUMN WOODS. 
BY 1\ P. COOKE. 
Summer has gone! 
And fruitful Autumn has advanced so far, 
That there is warmth not heat in the broad sun, 
And you may look with steadfast gaze upon 
The ardors of his car ; 
The stealthy frosts, whom his spent looks embolden, 
Are making the green leaves golden. 
What a brave splendor 
Is in the October air! How rich and clear— 
How life-full, and all joyous ! We mustrender 
Love to the Spring-time, with its sproutings tender, 
As to a child quite dear— 
But autumn is a noon, prolonged, of glory— 
A manhood not yet hoary. 
I love the woods 
In this best season of the liberal year ; 
I love to haunt their whispering solitudes, 
And give myself to melancholy moods, 
With no intruder near ; 
And find strange lesions, as I sit and ponder, 
In every natural wonder. 
A strong joy fills— 
A rapture far beyond the tongue’s cold power— 
My heart in golden autumn : fills and thrills ! 
And 1 would rather stalk the breezy hills— 
Descending to my bovver 
Nightly by the bold spirit of health attended— 
Than pine where life is splendid. 
THE OFFICE-SEEKER’S FATE. 
A SKETCH FROM LIFE. 
That all, says the National Intelligencer, 
that is sent abroad from Washington by 
letter-writers for the newspapers is not gos¬ 
pel, and that some is hardly creditable, is 
certainly true. But one meets occasional¬ 
ly in the distant newspapers, sketches which, 
so far from being mere inventions, or even 
exaggerations of fact, are life-like pictures 
of scenes, the truthfulness of which will be 
attested by all who have been placed in 
circumstances to observe and remark their 
leading traits. A letter of this character 
) now lies before us. However tempted by 
^ descriptions of one or two individual cases, 
( the statures of which would be immediately 
) recognized by many, we select, as both 
) instructive and interesting, the following 
s general view of a class of cases of which 
< whoever has lived as long at Washington as 
( we have, cannot but have known frequent 
> instances : 
If you were ever in Washington not 
long after the commencement of an Admin- 
; istration, you will not forget the army of 
( armies of office hunters that thronged the 
; avenues, crowded the lobbies, crammed the 
ante-rooms of the Secretaries of the De- 
) partments, and literally besieged the Presi- 
l dent in his own castle, the White House. 
> The scenes in the vestibules and ante- 
) rooms of the Secretaries in these office- 
> seeking times are very rich and very humili¬ 
ating. For instance, Mr. John Smith, a man 
; of fine feelings, and a respectable citizen in 
his own town, comes up to get, if he can, 
the appointment of a one thousand dollar 
post-office. He is backed by “ all his 
friends his letters from Col. Bull, who 
once shook hands with the President, and 
from Saul Sykes, Esq., who once rode in 
the stage with the President’s mother ; 
from Hon. Peter Parsley, who was once a 
a representative in Congress, and had been 
presented, with fifty others, to his Excel¬ 
lency in the east room at a levee, and re¬ 
minds him of it in his letter : and perhaps 
a letter, from Mrs. Brimble, an ex-Senator’s 
lady, to the lady of the President. 
Armed thus, Mr. John Smith deems him¬ 
self irresistible. He expects to carry all be¬ 
fore him. He alights from the cars in 
AVashington, and looks round upon the 
crowd with a patronizing eye. He orders 
a hack with an emphasis. He commands 
a room a Gadsby’s. He the next day walks 
among the big bugs as big a bug as they. 
He delivers bis letters. He finds the Presi¬ 
dent’s lady is out, and gives it to the por¬ 
ter. He has not been a week in Washing¬ 
ton, at three dollars and a half a day at 
Gadsby’s before he learns the late lesson, 
that in Washington letters of introduction 
are “matters of course,” and, like every 
thing else, that are “ matters of course,” 
are esteemed worthless. Nobody reads or 
notices them. They prove nothing. Two 
words with an honorable Senator or Repre¬ 
sentative from the applicant’s part of the 
country, a President or Secretary thinks 
more of than of a whole mail-bag of “letters 
of introduction.” The man who goes with¬ 
out one is more likely to succeed than he 
who depends on them. I would sooner 
trust a man who carried his character in 
his face rather than in his pocket. 
Mr. Smith having delivered his letters, 
and especially that to the President, goes at 
the reception hour to the White House to 
see him. The President usually receives 
men on business from ten to one. During 
these three hours the office-seekers throng 
the hall and out chamber to his room, each 
waiting his turn ; for it is first come, first 
served. Mr. John Smith having made his 
way to the landing, finds it filled with peo¬ 
ple, like a depot platform waiting for the 
train. Some of the men pace up and down, 
rapidly at every turn, casting their eager 
glances at a shut door, outside of which 
stands a servant with his hands filled with 
cards; for each visiter as he came up hand¬ 
ed his card till the attendant holds a pile 
of fifty, laid in regular order. Mr. Smith 
has come too late; he has delayed to be more 
than usually particular about his toilet, and 
his card made the fifty-first—that is fifty- 
one men have got to have audience before 
his turn comes. But he is yet ignorant of 
this fact, (but he learns it by heart by and 
by.) He now bows respectfully to the wai¬ 
ter, and asks him why he does not an¬ 
nounce him by going in and telling the 
President he is waiting. “The President 
is engaged,” answers the man rather short¬ 
ly. Before Mr. Smith can say more he is 
hustled away by seventeen gentlemen, each 
anxious to know when his own turn is com¬ 
ing. They hear, and go pacing up and 
down again. What a noise. Full one 
hundred boots tramping up and down in 
ceaseless foot-fails. Men can’t sit still wait¬ 
ing in suspense. They must keep in motion. 
Mr. Smith thinks he never saw so much 
walking. Hardly two gentlemen walked 
in pairs. Every man seemed to pace up 
and down alone, and to be shy of his neigh¬ 
bor. Doubtless all were strangers to each 
other, and felt that the presence of the rest 
interfered with their own success and pros¬ 
pects of audience. Mr Smith thought they 
all wore a scowl and had a sheepish look. 
After waiting an hour, he begins to feel 
sheepish himself. He feels it beneath his 
dignity to be dancing attendance this way 
— he a free American! He has seen full 
a score admitted one by one. It is fast ap¬ 
proaching one o’clock. He sees a man 
about to go in his turn, when three mem¬ 
bers of Congress appear ; and the man is 
gently put back and the members admitted. 
“Why is this?” he fiercely demands.— 
“Members of Congress always take prece¬ 
dence of all who go in by card, sir,” an¬ 
swers the attendant. Mr. Smith sighs at 
this new obstacle. His fancy conceives a 
continued procession of M. G.’s calling on 
the President. Mr. Smith goes away at 
one o’clock, his card and the thirty-lourth 
on the list. “Come again to-morrow,” says 
the patient attendant. 
The next day he is at his post with four 
score more. But it is a committee day, 
and the President is closeted with detailed 
committees from the Senate or House from 
ten to one. Not a soul is admitted by card! 
After three weeks, Mr. Smith, sees the 
President to be told “ to leave his papers 
and they will be examined.” He waits 
three weeks more in the ante-room to get 
a second interview with the President, to 
ask him if he has “ examined his papers.” 
The President refers him to the proper de¬ 
partment where his papers have been sent. 
It takes him thirty-three days heel kicking 
in the Secretary’s ante-room before he can 
get audience of this great man. Five times 
his bill at Gadsby’s has been made out and 
laid upon his dressing table. At length, 
in despair, he waylays the Secretary as he 
is stepping into his carriage. “Oh, ah, Mr. 
John Smith ! True, sir! Yes, your pa¬ 
pers have been examined, and they are 
perfectly satisfactory. But”— 
“Perfectly satisfactory, sir! I am de¬ 
lighted!” exclaimed Mr. Smith with exquis¬ 
ite happiness. 
But I am sorry to have to say that the 
office you seek is not vacant. It is our de¬ 
termination to retain the present incumbent. 
Good morning, Mr. Smith.” 
Mr. Smith looks after the Secretary’s 
carriage as it rolls away. His eyes are dim 
witji tears. He thinks of his debts at Gads¬ 
by’s, incurred on hope ; of the borrowed 
money on which he came to Washington, 
to be paid on his return : of his wife and 
children;and the next morning Mr. Smith’s 
body is found in Goose river!

by drowning.” The Recording Angel re¬ 
cords, “Death b} r office seeking .”—Notches

ROMANCE IN SHIPWRECK. 
Many interesting as well as painful in¬ 
cidents connected with the explosion and 
wreck of the Pulaski steamer (which occur¬ 
red some ten or fifteen years ago,) are rela¬ 
ted by those who were saved from destruc¬ 
tion. Amongst others, the following is told 
of Mr. Ridge, from New Orleans, and a 
Miss Onslow, from some of the southern 
States, two of the unfortunates who were 
picked up on the fifth day, about fifty miles 
from land. It is stated of the gentleman, 
that he lmd been sitting on the deck, alone, 
for half an hour previous to the accident.— 
Another gentleman, who was walking near 
him at the time of the explosion, was thrown 
overboard, and himself was precipitated 
nearly over the side of the boat and stun¬ 
ned. He recovered immediately, as he 
supposed, when he heard some one remark 
—“Get out the small boat—she is sinking.” 
He was not acquainted with a solitary 
individual in the boat. Under such circum¬ 
stances, it was natural to suppose he would 
feel quite as much concern for himself as 
any one else. He was consequently among 
the foremost of those who sought the small 
boat for safety, and was about to step into 
it, when he discovered a young lad}’, whom 
he recognized as one whose appearance 
had sundry times, during the passage, ar¬ 
rested his attention. Her protector was 
the gentleman who was walking on deck 
and blown over board. He sprang towards 
her to take her into the small boat ; but in 
the crowd and confusion he lost sight of her 
and he supposed she was with some of her 
friends. During Lis fruitless search, the, 
small boat shoved off. The night rang: 
with the prayers and shrieks of the 
helpless and drowning. He turned away 
in despair, and tumbled over a coil of small 
rope. Hope, like the expiring spark, bright¬ 
ened again. He caught up the rope—lashed 
together a couple of settees—threw them 
upon a piece of an old sail, and a small 
empty cask, and thus, equipped, launched 
upon the element. 
It was all the work of a moment. He 
believed death inevitable, and that effort 
was his last grasp for life. His vessel bore 
him up much better than he expected, and 
he was consoling himself with his escape, 
such as it was, while others were perishing 
all around him, when he discovered a fe¬ 
male struggling for life almost within his 
grasp. He left his ark—swarm but twice 
his length—seized his object, and returned 
safely to his craft again, which proved suf¬ 
ficient to sustain them both, but with their 
heads and shoulders only above the water. 
The female was the young lady for whom 
lie had lost a passage in the small boat.— 
She fancied their boat would be unable to 
support them both, and said —“You will 
have to let me go to save' yourself.” He 
replied—“ We live, or we die together.” 
Soon after they drifted upon a piece of 
the wreck, probably a part of the same 
floor or partition, torn asunder by the ex¬ 
plosion. This, with the aid of the settees 
fastened beneath it, proved sufficient to 
keep them out of the water. About this 
time, one of the small boats came towards 
them, but already heavily loaded. He im¬ 
plored them t.o take in the young lady. But 
she said no ; she could not leave him. 
Of the boat which bore them all in quiet 
and safety but half an hour before, nothing 
was to be seen but scattered pieces of the 
wreck. The small boats were on their way 
towards the shore — their own craft being 
light and lightly loaded drifted far away 
from a scene indescribably heart-rending, 
and which he still shudders to think of. 
At daylight nothing was visible to them 
but the heavens and a waste of waters.— 
In the course of the day they came in sight 
of land, and for a time were confident of 
reaching it; but during the succeeding night 
the wind changed, and soon after day-light 
next morning it vanished again, and with 
all their lively hopes of escaping their 
dreadful dilemma. On the third day a sail 
hove in sight, but beyond hailing distance. 
When found, they were sadly burned by 
the sun—starved and exhausted though in 
possession of their faculties, and able to 
move and talk. But their pain and suffer¬ 
ing was not without a pleasure and enjoy¬ 
ment. The romantic part of the story of 
their expedition is yet to come, and there is 
no telling how much longer they would 
have subsisted on the same food that seems 
to have aided in sustaining them so well 
such a length of time. 
The intrepidity he displayed—the risk 
he run—the danger he incurred, and, above 
all, the magnanimity he evinced in saving 
her life—strangers as they were to each 
other—at the imminent hazard of his own, 
elicite from her at once the warmest and 
strongest feelings of gratitude toward him, 
and before the tortures of hunger and thirst 
commenced, kindled that passion which 
burns nowhere else as it burns in woman’s 
bosom. 
On the other hand, her good sense, her 
fortitude, and presence of mind at the most 
perilous moment—and particularly her 
readiness to meet and share with him the 
fate that awaited them,—excited on his part 
an attachment which was neither to be dis¬ 
guised nor deferred. And there, upon the 
“ waters wild,” amid the terrors which sur¬ 
rounded, and the fate which threatened 
them, in the presence of an all seeing God, 
did they pledge their mutual love, and de¬ 
clare, if their lives were spared, the desti¬ 
ny which misfortune had united, should 
then be made inseparable. 
After their rescue he informed her that 
a sense of duty impelled him to apprise her, 
that, by the misfortune which had befallen 
them, he had lost every dollar he possessed 
on earth (amounting to $25,000) that he 
was “ in poverty to his lips”—a beggar 
amongst strangers, without the means of 
paying for a single meal of victuals : and, 
painful as was the thought of separation to 
him, he offered to release her from her en¬ 
gagement, if it was her choice to leave him. 
She burst into tears at the very thought of 
separation, and asked him if he thought it 
was possible for the poverity of this world to 
drive them to a more desperate extremity 
than that which they had suffered thus to¬ 
gether! He assured her of his willingness 
to endure for her the same trial again, and 
if the joy, more than he could express, 
which lie felt at finding her so willing to 
fulfil her engagement, which, it is said, 
was soon after consummated. It was not 
till then that he was made acquainted with 
the fact that his lady love was heiress to an 
estate worth $200,000.

BALLAD OF THE CAHAL. 
We were crowded in the cabin, 
Not a soul had room to sleep; 
It was midnight on the waters, 
And the banks.were very steep. 
’Tis a fearful thing when sleeping 
To he startled by a shock, 
■Vnd to hear the rattling trumpet 
Thunder, “ coming to a lock!” 
So we shuddered there in silence, 
For Hie stoutest berth was shook, 
While the wooden gates were opened 
And the mate talked with the cook. 
And thus we lay in darkness, 
Each one wishing we were there, 
“ We are through!” the captain Shouted, 
And he sat down on a chair. 
And his little daughter whispered. 
Thinking that lie ought to know, 
“ Isn’t traveling by canal boats 
Just as safe as it is slow V' 
Then lie kissed the little maiden, 
And with better cheer we spoke. 
And we trotted into Pittsburgh 
When the morn looked thro’ the smoke.

“Know’d it! know’d it!” said the pleasant

“And doctor,” said the other coolly, “ I 
want to buy another pound of ye.” 
“Another pound ?” 
“Yes sir. I gin that pound I bought the 
other day to a pesky mouse, and it made 
him dreadful sick, and I am sure that 
another pound would kill him.”

ester, and General Agency it! Western New York,of their 
celebrated Agricultural Machines, which we will sell at 
their Albany prices, adding transportation. 
The two horse Machines are well calculated lor large 
farmers, and those who make a business of threshing.— 
They are light and compact, so that the whole is conven¬ 
iently carried on one wagon with two horses, the weight 
being about 2,t 00 pounds. 
The Vibrating Separator, divides and carries the straw 
entirely clear from the grain, leaving the grain in the best 
possible condition for cleaning. 
This Machine with from 3 to 3 hands, will thresh from 
one to two hundred bushels of wheal per day; or twice the 
quantity of oats. 
The one horse Machines, with 2 or 3 hands, will thresh 
about half that quantity. They also thresh and separate 
clover cl alf front the straw, very fast, and perfectly. 
'Phe one horse power is extensively used by Dairymen, 
for churning, and for sawing wood, cutting iced, &c.
