I THE HUSBANDMAN. 
Earth, of Man the beauteous Mother, 
Feeds him still with corn and wine; 
He who best would aid a brother, 
8hares with him these gifts divine. 
Many a power within her bosom, 
Noiseless, hidden, works beneath; 
Hence are seed, and leaf, and blossom, 
Golden ear and clustered wreath. 
) These to swell with strength and beauty, 
) Is the royal task of Man; 
Man's a king, his throne is duty, 
Since his work on earth began. 
Bud and harvest, bloom and vintage. 
These, like man, are fruits of earth; 
Stamped in clay a heavenly mintage, 
All from dust receive their birth. 
Barn and mill, and wine-vat’s treasures, 
Earthly goods for earthly lives; 
These are nature's ahcient pleasures, 
Which her child from her derives. 
What’s the dream hut. vain rebellion, 
If from earth we sought to rise ? 
’Tis our stored and ample dwelling, 
’Tis from it we see the skies. 
Wind and frost, and hour and season, 
Land and water, sun and shade, 
Work with these, as bids thy reason, 
For they work thy toil to aid. 
Sow thy seed and reap in gladness I 
Man himself is all a seed ; 
Hope and hardship, joy and sadness, 
Slow the plant to ripeness lead.

THE PRINTER’S SECRET. 
“You can take this case,” said the fore¬ 
man ; “ hero is a stick—hero is some copy; 
and if yon would like a quiet and steady 
partner, you will find this gentleman still 
enough in all conscience.” 
The “ partner” merely looked up and 
faintly smiled in acknowledgement of the 
foreman’s compliment, and kept on with his 
work ; while the foreman turned away to at¬ 
tend to something else. 
We worked on steadily until dinner, as 
we were in a hurry to got the paper up, 
without exchanging a word, or even a look. 
In the afternoon I had more leisure to study 
the physiognomy of my neighbor. Lie was 
a young man of about three or four and- 
twenty, with handsomo features and a rath¬ 
er intellectual cast of countenance. IIis 
face was quite pale, and the raven darkness 
of his hair, eyebrows and eyes, made mo 
immediately come to the conclusion, after 
thoroughly studying his physiognomy, that 
he was a hard student during his leisure 
hours, or that, depriving himself of the re¬ 
creation of books, or other sources of enjoy¬ 
ment, he spent all his waking hours at the 
case. The latter supposition time proved 
correct. 
As day after day passed by I bocamo more 
acquainted with him; and I found him to 
be a singular character. Beneath his stand 
he had constructed a kind of closet, which 
contained a spirit lamp, a mattress with bed¬ 
ding, a few cooking utensils, and a small 
stock of the plainest kind of food. When 
the hours for meals arrived, he would light 
his lamp, and putting some food over it to 
cook, would work until the rest of the hands 
had left the ofiico, when ho would sit down 
to his frugal repast. He worked incessant¬ 
ly during work hours, hardly leaving the of¬ 
fice, unless to purchase food or upon some 
errand of that kind. Morning, noon and 
night, when I returned from my meals, I 
invariably found him at the case, working 
away with all his might, as if some great 
issuo depended upon the improvement of 
every minute. I suppose he slept upon the 
cot which he kept in his closet; but as ho 
was always at work when I left at night and 
when I returned in the morning, I could 
not positively assert that ho did so. I am 
not very garrulous, especially when employ¬ 
ed at the case, and as he would not first ad¬ 
dress me, I would not speak to him; so while 
the fun and joke were passing round the 
other cases, we were silent as the grave. I 
was not long in discovering that there was 
somo mystery connected with him, and that 
his intense application to labor was not 
prompted merely by a desire to make mon¬ 
ey ; for if there is anything in phrenology, 
judging from the formation of his head, he 
was the very one whom I would have select¬ 
ed from a score for a spendthrift. Occa¬ 
sionally hi3 cheeks would Hush, his eyes light 
up, and a happy smile overspread his coun¬ 
tenance; then the smile would go away, his 
eyes would fill with tears, while an express¬ 
ion of sadness—almost despair—would seat 
itself upon his countenance. I havo been 
tempted a thousand times to ask him the 
cause of this, but as ho appeared so cold 
and insolated I refrained from doing so, as 
it is not pleasant proffering sympathy un¬ 
asked. 
“ Well, how do you like your neighbor ?” 
askod one of the journeymen of me as wo 
wore descending the stairs one evening. 
“ I can hardly make him out,” said I; “he 
appears to be a strange sort of being. You 
are better acquainted with him than I; how 
do you like him ?” 
“ For my part, I hate him, and what is 
more he has not a friend in the whole office. 
That fellow has been hore for throe months, 
and ho has hardly spoken to any one. A 
man who makes such bills as he does, and 
hoards up his money like a miser I have 
very little friendship for. We wouldn’t any 
of us care so much if ho would be a little ■ 
sociable and spend a dollar, or even a dime 
occasionally; but no—every five-cent piece 
he gets he hangs on to as if ho was afraid 
the oaglo on it would spread his wings and i 
fly away with it, doing him out of a five 
cent piece. But he can't stay hore long.— 
We havo insulted him a dozen times; and 
ho has less spunk than I think he has 
if ho don’t resent it some day. We ll get 
him into a quarrel then, and have him dis¬ 
charged.” 
deprived myself of many comforts, and 
borno your taunts and jeers for her sake. 
But I can bear it no longer. If you are 
men you will desist; if you do not, I warn 
you to beware of the consequences !” 
“ Zeke” had risen to his feet and heard 
all my friend had said. As he listened to 
But,” said I, “do you know anything, the “ Quaker,” I could see the moisture 
they don’t want the rules and regulations of 
the houso printed ; if they do I’ll board out 
the bill.” 
I glanced at my neighbor to see how ho j 
boro this ridicule. Ilis face was flushed and j 
his lips firmly compressed, as if to choke : 
down the rising indignation. But he said I 
not a word; 1 fancied, however, that he 
picked up the type faster than usual. 
Things could not go on in this way much ! 
longer, for as godliko a quality as forbear- ' 
ance is, it cannot hold out against every- j 
thing. I saw that a storm was gathering 
and prepared to act my part as a man whon j 
it burst forth. j 
It was Saturday afternoon; the hands I 
wero ranged round the “ stone,” with their j 
bills in their hands, waiting to bo paid off. 
“ Quaker” happened to be at one end of the 
“stone,” and immediately opposite him 
stood “ Zeke.” As usual, “ Quaker” was the 
“observed of all observers,” and sly whis¬ 
pers, which wero answered by a titter or a 
nudgo of the elbow', passed round the group. 
As the foreman paid “ Quaker” the amount 
due him, ho gave him a now quarter dollar 
to make out the change. This did not es¬ 
cape “ Zeke’s” eye, and he said, in a tone to 
be heard by all— 
“If the eagle on that quarter had life 
and I were a State prison convict, I would 
not swap places with it, for my confinement 
would be far preferable to being squeezed 
to death.” 
This was the hair that broko the camel’s 
back. With the exclamation “ you scoun¬ 
drel !” ho made ono bound, and with a stun¬ 
ning blow brought “ Zeke” to tl^o floor.— 
Then jerking off his coat, and placing him¬ 
self in a fighting attitudo, he turned to the 
astonished group with “come on now you 
cowardly ruffians. If you cannot let mo 
alone peacably I will make you do it by 
force. I have borno your insults long 
enough, and if you havo any more to offer, 
come on with them !” 
This challenge was sufficient. Coats came 
off and sleeves wero rolled up in a minute. 
I saw my friend would be apt to get the 
worst of the fight, and forcing him into a 
corner, I exclaimed— 
“ Gentlemen, one word if you please ! It 
would bo cowardly for you all to attack this 
man; I will not see it done. And if you 
will attempt it I have something here (tap¬ 
ping my breast significantly) that will stop 
it. Ho is not to blame; ho has only re¬ 
sented an insult, which any of you would 
have done. You have all insulted him be¬ 
cause ho has conducted himself strangely; 
let him explain his conduct, and perhaps 
we can make-up our quarrel. He owes you 
an explanation—if not to you, he certainly 
does to mo. And, now, sir,” said I, turning 
to him, “ I domand it of you as a right.” 
He hesitated a moment. “Como, my 
friend,” said I, “ let us have it, whatever it 
is, and at once put an end to this quarrel.” 
“Well, gentlemen,” ho said, “I am not 
disposed to lay my private affairs open to 
public gaze, but I suppose I must do it for 
once. You must know, then, that from my 
earnings I must not only support myself, 
but my mother, two sisters and three small 
brothers, who reside in a distant State. I 
could earn enough at home to support 
them well, but my reason for coming hero 
is this: One of my sisters who is now a 
beautiful girl of sixteen, and the pet of the 
family, has been blind from birth. We had 
no hope of her ever acquiring the faculty of 
sight, and were content to abide by what we 
thought a dispensation of Providence. But 
recently I have seen a case similar to hers 
—a young man—who was restorod to sight 
by an eminent physician of Paris. I have 
corresponded with that physician, and he 
has high hopes that in my sister’s case ho 
can effect a cure. This, gentlemen, is what i 
I have been laboring for since I have been i 
here—to raise funds sufficient to take her < 
to Paris. I love that sister as I do my own ;

STRANGE JEWISH CUSTOM. 
From a recent work on the modern Jew, 
we extract a passage which shows the tena¬ 
city with which the Jews cling to the letter 
of the Mosaic law, and which throws light 
upon a well known requirement of that law: 
The Jewish wife, as well as her Gentile 
neighbor, may become a widow. When 
such happens and she bo without issue, it is 
the duty of the husband’s brother to take 
her in marriage, or to set her free to marry 
any other person ; this ceremony of giving 
her leave to marry another, is called (Jhalit- 
zah, i. e. the taking off of the shoes, and is 
founded on Dout. xxv. 5, 10. Should the 
living brother be born after the decease of 
the dead brother, ho is not under obligation 
to marry his sister in-law ; or should he bo 
already married, he is not only expected to 
put her free, for without this freedom she 
cannot marry a second time. This ceremo¬ 
ny is performed in the following manner: 
The parties having informed the authorities 
of the fact, it is announced in the Syna¬ 
gogue in the evening that a Chalitzah will 
take place the following morning. After 
the morning service, according to the an¬ 
nouncement, three Rabbies, the required 
witnesses, and the parties, meet; after hear¬ 
ing their statement, the Chiof Rabbi ques¬ 
tions the young man, and when he finds him 
determined not to marry his brother’s 
widow, calls for the shoo. This shoo is of 
a peculiar make, and used for this purpose 
only. It is made of black cloth list, of 
pointed form, and two long laces attached 
thereto; it is always kept in the Syna- 
goguo. 
When brought forward, the Rabbi com¬ 
mands the man to put it on, aftor doing 
which, he twists and ties the lacos around 
his log. The woman is then led up by tho 
Rabbi to tho man, and taught to repeat tho 
following in Hebrew : — “ My husband's 
brother refuseth to raise up unto his broth¬ 
er a namo in Israel; ho will not perform the 
duty of my husband’s brother.” In an¬ 
swer, he repeats :—“ I like not to take her.” 
Tho woman then unravels the knots, which 
is rather a troublesome affair, as she must 
do it with her right hand only,—takes off' 
the shoe, throws it upon tho ground, and 
spits before the man, repeating, after tho 
Rabbi the following :—“ So shall it bo done 
unto that man that will not build up his 
brother’s house : and his namo shall be call¬ 
ed in Israel, the house of him that hath his 
shoo loosed.” All those present respond, 
“ His shoe is loosed ! his shoe is loosed ! his 
shoe is loosed !” After this tho Rabbi de¬ 
clares the woman free to marry whomsoev¬ 
er she may, and tho secretary of the Syna¬ 
gogue gives her a writing to that effect, 
when the ceremony iB over.

GYNEOPATHY, OR WOMAN CURE. 
BY JOHN Q. SAXE. 
I saw a lady yesterday, 
A regular “M. 1).,” 
Who'd taken from the faculty 
Her medical degree; 
And I thought if ever I Was sick, 
My doctor she should be. 
I pity the deluded mau 
Who foolishly consults 
Another man, in hopes to find 
Such magical results, 
As when a pretty woman lays 
Her hand upon his pulse. 
1 had a strange disorder once, 
A kind of chronic chill, 
That all the doctors in the town, 
With all their vaunted skill, 
Could never cure, I'm very sure, 
With powder nor with pill. 
I don’t know what they called it 
In their pompous terms of art. 
Nor if they thought it mortal 
In such a vital part— 
I only knew ’twas reckoned 
“ Something icy round the heart.” 
A lady came—her presence brought 
The blood into my ears; 
She took my hand—aud something like 
A fever now appears! 
Great Galen 1 I was all aglow, 
Though I'd been cold for years! 
Perhaps it isn’t every case 
That’s fairly in her reach, 
But should I e’er be ill again, 
I fervently beseech 
That I may have for life or death, 
A lady for my “ leech.”
